Angelina’s POV

The cold night air clung to my skin as I stood on the balcony, Luca’s words still echoing in my mind.

“I know you will.”

His confidence in me should have been reassuring. But instead, it left me feeling more burdened than ever.

Because if I failed—if I wasn’t strong enough—it wouldn’t just be my life at stake.

It would be his.

The pack’s.

Everything.

I clenched my fists, exhaling slowly. Fear wouldn’t help me now. The only thing that would save me was preparation. Strength. Strategy.

I turned on my heel and headed back inside, determined to start now.

The Training Begins

Dawn came too quickly. The moment the first rays of sunlight touched the sky, I was already outside in the training yard. The dirt beneath my bare feet was cold, grounding me as I stretched, rolling my shoulders.

Luca hadn’t arrived yet, but I didn’t wait for him. I started with the basics—footwork drills, strength exercises, sharpening every movement I had learned over the past few months.

    Angelina’s POV The words echoed in my mind, each syllable carving itself into my bones.“You were never meant to exist.”I stared at the man across the table, my heart thudding in my chest. A chill ran down my spine, but I forced myself to stand tall, to meet his gaze without flinching.“What do you mean?” My voice was steady, but my fingers curled into fists at my sides.The man leaned back, watching me with an unsettling curiosity. “You think you’re just some omega who defied her fate? That your strength is a lucky anomaly?” He let out a quiet chuckle. “You are so much more.”Luca stepped forward, his presence radiating tension. “Enough riddles. Say what you know.”The man’s smirk didn’t waver, but there was something sharp in his eyes. “Your little mate here is an abomination in the eyes of the Elders. A mistake. Something that should have been wiped out before she ever took her first breath.”A lump formed in my throat, but I swallowed it down. “Why?”The man steepled his fingers

    Angelina’s POV The moment we crossed the threshold into the ruins, the air thickened. It wasn’t just the weight of age pressing down on us—it was something else. Something unseen.Magic.I felt it in the way the air crackled around me, in the faint whisper of energy that prickled against my skin. The ruins weren’t just old; they were alive in a way that sent shivers down my spine.Luca was tense beside me, his eyes scanning the shadows ahead. Zane was uncharacteristically silent, his usual bravado subdued by whatever force lingered in this place. Even Elara, who had led us here with such confidence, hesitated.“This place…” she murmured. “It remembers.”I swallowed. “Remembers what?”She didn’t answer.The ruins stretched before us like the bones of a forgotten world, jagged stone archways looming overhead, vines curling around broken pillars. The remnants of a civilization long lost.At the center of it all was a structure that still stood—a massive, decayed temple, its doors sealed

  • The Rogue Luna   Chapter 75

    Angelina’s POV The energy coursing through my veins was unlike anything I had ever felt before. It was wild, raw, and untamed, like a raging river that had been held back for too long and had finally broken free. My skin tingled with the sensation, and for the first time in my life, I didn’t feel weak—I felt alive.Alric watched me with an appraising look, his silver eyes gleaming under the dim torchlight of the temple. “You felt it, didn’t you?”I nodded, still trying to catch my breath. “It wasn’t just a vision. It was real. I was there with her.”“The First Alpha,” Luca murmured beside me. His presence was a steadying force, grounding me as the rush of power threatened to overwhelm me. “You saw her?”I met his gaze and nodded. “She spoke to me. She said I was never weak.” My voice shook slightly, the weight of her words still pressing against my chest. “But what does that mean? If I have her blood, why was my power sealed away?”Alric sighed, stepping forward. “Because power like

    Angelina’s POV The temple doors trembled under the force of the attack, cracks forming along the ancient stone. Dust rained down from the ceiling, the torches flickering wildly as if reacting to the sheer energy pressing against them.Luca moved beside me, his body tense, his hands clenched into fists. “They’re forcing their way in.”Alric stood tall, his silver eyes focused on the door. “Good. Let them.”Let them? My pulse thundered in my ears. The Elders weren’t just coming—they were here, ready to destroy me before I could fully understand what I had become. My newly awakened power pulsed beneath my skin, eager to be unleashed, but doubt curled in my chest.What if I wasn’t ready?A deafening crack split the air, and the doors burst open. The shockwave sent shards of stone flying, the sheer force of it making me stumble back.And then they stepped inside.Six figures cloaked in deep crimson, their faces hidden beneath shadowed hoods. Their presence was suffocating, like a storm pr

  • The Rogue Luna   Chapter 77

    Angelina’s POV The temple’s silence was unsettling. Dust still hung in the air, illuminated by the weak flickering of the torches. The battle was over, the Elders were gone, and yet, my body remained tense—waiting for something, anything.Luca stood a few feet away, his golden eyes scanning the ruins, his muscles still coiled as if he expected another attack. Elara and Alric remained nearby, both watching me with unreadable expressions.I should have felt victorious. I had done what I never imagined possible—I had faced the Elders and won. And yet, an uneasy feeling settled in my chest.Something wasn’t right.I turned to Alric. “Is it over?”He studied me for a long moment before answering. “The Elders you faced are gone, yes. But power like theirs never disappears completely.”My stomach twisted. “Meaning?”Luca stepped closer. “Meaning their magic could return. Or worse—others might come in their place.”I swallowed hard. I had barely survived this fight, and now they were telling

  • The Rogue Luna   Chapter 78

    Angelina’s POV Darkness swallowed me whole.It wasn’t the comforting embrace of night, nor the oblivion of sleep—it was something else. Something ancient. Something cold.My body felt weightless, drifting in an abyss where sound and time no longer existed. Panic clawed at my throat, but there was nothing to hold on to, nothing to anchor me.Then—a voice.Low. Familiar.“You shouldn’t have come here.”My eyes snapped open.I wasn’t in the city anymore.I stood in a vast, endless void, the ground beneath me smooth and glass-like, reflecting a sky that was neither day nor night. Shadows twisted in the distance, moving like living creatures.And in front of me stood him.The man from the city.The one who had spoken my name as if it belonged to him.I straightened my back, masking my fear with defiance. “Who are you?”He stepped closer, his movements unnervingly fluid. “You already know.”I narrowed my eyes. “I don’t.”His lips curved into a ghost of a smile. “Liar.”The word slithered d

    Angelina’s POV The flickering lanterns cast jagged shadows on the damp stone walls, their glow barely piercing the suffocating darkness of the underground tunnels.Luca had sworn to stand by me.Yet, as we moved deeper into the unknown, the weight of that promise pressed against my chest. It felt fragile, like something that could shatter with the slightest shift of fate.I had learned, painfully, that oaths were easy to make and even easier to break.But I wanted to believe him.I needed to.“Stay close,” Luca murmured, his voice a low rumble in the confined space.I didn’t need the warning. The tunnels felt alive, as if something unseen slithered through the cracks, watching, waiting.Elara moved ahead, her keen eyes scanning for danger, while Alric walked a few paces behind me, silent as ever. The tension in the air was thick, almost unbearable.Then, suddenly—A sound.Faint, almost imperceptible.A whisper of movement.I halted, every muscle in my body locking into place. “Did y

    Chapter 80Angelina’s POVThe night air was thick with tension, pressing against my skin like a second layer. My steps were cautious as I walked down the dimly lit corridor, each footfall echoing against the polished wooden floor. The faint scent of damp earth and aged parchment filled my senses, a reminder that I was in unfamiliar territory. I had spent years trying to break free from my past, but it seemed determined to follow me like a shadow.As I reached the heavy double doors at the end of the hall, my fingers trembled slightly. I clenched my jaw, steadying myself. Weakness had no place here. Not now. Not ever. Taking a deep breath, I pushed the doors open, revealing a grand chamber bathed in the warm glow of candlelight.Inside, Luca stood with his back to me, his broad shoulders rigid. He was staring at the flickering flames of the fireplace, his hands clasped behind him.“You took your time,” he said, his voice low but edged with something unreadable.I scoffed. “I wasn’t exa

  • The Rogue Luna   Chapter 117

    The wind howled through the ruined temple as we stood at the precipice of the final battle. The sky churned with dark clouds, unnatural in their movements, as if the world itself knew what was coming. A storm was brewing—not just in the heavens, but in our souls.I could feel it. The darkness. The raw, unrestrained energy that had been sealed away for centuries, now clawing its way back into existence.And at the heart of it all, him.The one who had orchestrated it from the shadows.The one who had betrayed Lunara all those years ago.And the one who now stood before me, watching with eyes that glowed like molten fire.Malakai.I took a slow step forward, my pulse steady even as my body braced for what was to come. Luca and Damien flanked me, their presence grounding me, but I knew—this was my fight.Malakai smiled, his voice like silk laced with poison. “So, you finally remember.”I clenched my fists, power humming beneath my skin. “I do.”His smile widened. “Then you know why this

    The weight of the revelation pressed down on me like a crushing tide. My breath came in short, shallow gasps as I stared at the altar, the symbols etched into its stone glowing with an eerie light.The last of my kind. A forgotten bloodline. A ritual that would unlock the truth.Every nerve in my body screamed at me to stop—to turn away before I unleashed something I couldn’t control.But I had come too far to stop now.I forced myself to stand, my legs trembling beneath me. Luca’s hand shot out to steady me, his touch firm yet careful.“Angelina,” he said, his voice low, controlled. “Are you sure about this?”I looked up at him, into those dark eyes that had seen too much, endured too much because of me. I could see the war raging inside him—his need to protect me battling against the understanding that I needed to do this.I nodded. “I have to be.”Damien exhaled sharply behind me. “Well, this is either going to be a breakthrough or an absolute disaster.”I ignored him and stepped t

    The figure’s silver eyes burned into mine, their glow the only source of illumination in the endless void around us. My breath hitched, my heart hammering as I struggled to process their words.“Who are you?”It was such a simple question, yet it sent a shiver down my spine.Because I didn’t know the answer.I had been an omega—weak, unwanted, discarded. Then, I had been a wife—betrayed, used, thrown away. Now, I was something else entirely.Something more.The figure took a step forward, their form shifting as if they weren’t entirely bound to this plane. I instinctively tensed, ready to run if I had to, but something about them held me in place.“You don’t know yet, do you?” the voice mused, a strange mixture of amusement and something… deeper. Something ancient.My hands curled into fists at my sides. “I don’t know what you mean.”They tilted their head, as if observing me more closely. “You stand at the edge of two worlds, yet you belong to neither. The blood in your veins remembe

    The clearing was silent, the air thick with tension. My pulse pounded in my ears as I tried to steady my breath, my body still tingling from the power that had surged through me. The creatures lay scattered, their twisted forms crumpled against the trees. But the silence wasn’t reassuring. It felt like the calm before a storm.Luca’s grip on my arm was firm but not painful, grounding me as I wobbled slightly on my feet. His eyes bore into mine, dark and unreadable. “Angelina,” he said, his voice low but urgent, “what did you feel?”I swallowed hard, my throat dry.How could I explain something I didn’t even understand?“It was like…” I hesitated, searching for the right words. “For a moment, when my power touched them, I could hear something. Not words, exactly, but—” I stopped, frustrated.“A connection?” Damien guessed, his gaze sharp.I nodded slowly. “Yes. It felt… ancient. And familiar, somehow. Like a whisper in the back of my mind.”Luca exchanged a glance with Damien, somethin

    The forest remained eerily quiet as we moved forward, the only sound coming from the rustling leaves beneath our feet. The adrenaline was still coursing through my veins, making my fingers tremble slightly, but I forced myself to stay focused. Whatever had just happened—whatever power I had used—I needed to understand it. Control it. Because if I didn’t, it could consume me.Luca’s gaze flickered to me every few seconds, as if he was assessing me, trying to make sense of what I had done. He wasn’t the only one. Damien, who had been tense and sharp through every battle, was unusually quiet. He kept his distance, but I could feel his eyes on me too, wary and calculating.I didn’t blame them.Even I wasn’t sure what I had become.I clenched my fists at my sides and focused on the path ahead. The trees had started to thin, the density of the forest giving way to a faint, silvery mist. It curled around our legs, making it feel like the ground itself was shifting beneath us.“We’re close,”

    The darkness of the forest pressed in on all sides, the shadows seeming to stretch further with each passing minute. The air was thick with the smell of wet earth, and the distant rustle of leaves only heightened the sensation of being followed. Every step felt heavier, as though the forest itself was conspiring against us, drawing us deeper into its labyrinth of twisted trees and tangled underbrush. The weight of the unknown pressed down on my chest, suffocating me.I had always known that power came at a cost, but I had never fully understood it until now. The force that surged within me—this strange, dangerous energy—was both a gift and a curse. Each time I used it, I felt like I was losing a part of myself. I wasn’t just tapping into some external source of power; I was becoming something else. Something more dangerous.And the worst part? I didn’t know if I could control it.Luca’s presence beside me was a steadying force, though. His calm, unshakable demeanor seemed to balance o

    The forest was suffocating. Even though the cool night air should have offered some relief, it felt oppressive, heavy with the weight of danger that lurked just beyond the shadows. I couldn’t shake the feeling that we weren’t alone, that the darkness was closing in around us. Every crack of a branch, every rustle of leaves sent my pulse racing.Luca’s grip on my arm was firm but gentle, as if sensing my anxiety. He didn’t speak, but I could feel the quiet strength radiating off him, steady and unwavering. Despite everything that had happened, I found comfort in his presence. There was a calm in him that I didn’t have, a peace that somehow anchored me in the chaos.We moved quickly, following Damien as he led us through the dense trees. His eyes darted from side to side, scanning for any movement, any sign of a threat. I could see the exhaustion on his face, the way his breath came in shallow gasps. We had all been through so much already, and it felt like there was no end in sight.“A

    The air was thick with tension, the stench of earth and decay mixing with the sharp scent of danger that was creeping in on all sides. My heart raced, and my chest tightened as the power within me surged once more, a raw, untamed force that I struggled to keep at bay. I could feel it, like an electric pulse beneath my skin, urging me to unleash it, to let it consume everything around me. But I fought it. I had to. I couldn’t let it take control. Not again.The creatures—there were more of them now—surrounded us, their glowing eyes flickering like embers in the darkness. Each one was larger than the last, their bodies sleek and muscled, their claws scraping the ground with a sound that sent shivers down my spine. They were closing in, their low growls vibrating through the ground beneath my feet. It was only a matter of time before they attacked.Luca stood beside me, his presence a calming force amidst the chaos. His hand was on my arm, grounding me, but even he couldn’t hide the tens

    The forest stretched endlessly before me, its towering trees standing like silent sentinels, casting long shadows across the ground. The air was thick with the scent of pine and earth, the stillness of the morning broken only by the rustling of leaves beneath our feet. My heart beat steadily in my chest, though every step felt heavier than the last, weighed down by the unease gnawing at me.Luca walked beside me, his presence like a steady anchor, grounding me in a world that seemed to be spinning out of control. His gaze was fixed ahead, but every so often, his dark eyes would flicker to me, searching for something. I didn’t know what he was looking for—maybe reassurance, maybe fear—but I didn’t have the answers he wanted. Not yet.We had made it through the night, but the danger was far from over. The creatures that had attacked us in the forest, the ones that had been stalking us from the shadows, were still out there. And whatever power was stirring inside me, whatever it was that
