The Darkside of the Moon Chapter 84 - A Battle for Valentine's Soul
The night is thick with the smell of petrichor, the earth still drenched from a rainstorm that passed only hours ago. The sky, a panoply of swirling clouds and a deep indigo abyss, mirrors the turmoil surging within the Adams estate. Inside, the silence is deafening, every shadow a sentry, every creak of the old wooden floor a harbinger of something darker lurking.Valentine lies still on his black sheeted bed, paler than usual, unmoving, an ethereal figure whose once vibrant presence is now reduced to a melancholic husk. His pale, clammy skin is strewn with lifelessness, his breathing shallow and labored. Sweat beads on his forehead, but it is the veins—those dark, serpentine lines crawling beneath the surface—that draw all eyes.They coil like a creeping vine, twisting and winding up from the wrists to the elbows, then slithering further towards the neck. Black and swollen, they pulse with an eerie rhythm, as if alive, as if feeding on the very essence of life within him. The darkne
The Darkside of the Moon Chapter 85 - A Bitter-Sweet Doting
The scent of damp scent of earth lingers in the air, mingling with the heavy aroma of antiseptic in the dimly lit room. The rain outside pounds against the window, a rhythmic pulse to the storm brewing between Gabrielle and Jason. He sits on the edge of the bed, his body still, yet taut with barely-contained pain. The ethereal glow of the moon filters through the cracks in the blinds, casting slivers of silver across his battered form. His chest, normally solid and unyielding, rises and falls with the effort of breath, each movement betraying the damage inflicted during the battle with Valentine’s dark force.Despite his werewolf healing abilities, the injuries sustained in the fight are no ordinary cuts or bruises. His body is marred by something darker, deeper—a lingering malevolence that no natural recuperation could cleanse. Strewn across his torso are jagged gashes that still ooze, as though something ineffable clings to him, refusing to let go.Gabrielle watches him from across
The Darkside of the Moon Chapter 86 - A Matriarch's Counsel
The crackle of the fire burns low in the grand hearth, casting an ominous glow across the room. Shadows twist and flit along the stone walls of the Pack House, the ancestral seat of the Smith Dynasty, but even the warmth of the flames can’t thaw the icy dread that weighs heavily on Wilson's mind.Alpha Wilson Smith stands at the far end of the room, his gaze locked on the window where the storm outside rages in perfect harmony with the tempest inside his soul.

The Darkside of the Moon Chapter 87 - An Assayed Insurrection

Beneath its pale glow, the city is a hive of shadowed intrigue and simmering tension. The night sky hangs in stillness, draped in a velvet blackness that swallows the horizon whole. The new moon hides in plain sight, its presence felt more in absence, an ineffable darkness casting an ethereal hush over the world. It’s a night for shadows to skulk across the city, for the stars to form a mellifluous choir, quietly harmonizing above the strewn whispers of leaves below. The air smells of fresh smell of rain that recently subsided, that damp scent of rain-soaked earth rising like an ephemeral breath from the ground, a fleeting reminder of nature's recent kiss.For some, it feels as though the universe is bamboozling them, hiding its celestial panoply behind an opaque curtain. Yet, for others, there’s a serendipity in this dark sky, a chance to dial in to

The Darkside of the Moon Chapter 90 - Reparations
In the dimly lit red chamber of the Council of Alphas, the air is thick with tension as Wilson takes his seat at the head of the stone table.

The Darkside of the Moon Chapter 91 - Trailing Shadows
Secrets are the weapons of those who walk in shadow, unseen, unheard, until the moment they pierce the silence. The night is loyal to the hunter, cloaking them in its embrace, while the prey, trembling, senses the gaze that never wavers—silent, relentless, inevitable. In these dark recesses, truths are born, and betrayals murmur like whispered winds. Then again, in the folds of night, the most perilous secrets breathe and grow, for darkness is a veil that shields both predator and prey, though only one truly masters the hunt.Danger rarely announces its arrival with a roar. Instead, it treads softly, creeping on the silent feet of dread, lurking just beyond the edges of perception. To track in darkness is to merge with the night itself, to become invisible, patient, waiting for that singular, fatal instant to strike. The shadows are a kingdom where only the bold wear crowns, and the weak, paralyzed by fear, fall into the jaws of the inevitable. In this delicate dance between predator
