Chapter 115: The Ritual of SeveranceVeyron’s POVThe chamber beneath the mountain pulsed with ancient power, every rune carved into the walls glowing faintly red as if feeding on the despair radiating from the severed mate bonds above. The screams of confusion and loss had started hours ago, reverberating through the air like a symphony written for me alone.The ritual was progressing beautifully.I stepped forward, my boots echoing on the polished obsidian floor. The altar at the center of the room gleamed with spilled blood, the lifeblood of the willing sacrifices who had been so eager to break their own shackles. Their deaths were a necessary offering—a small price to pay for the revolution to come.“Master,” a voice rasped from the shadows. One of my loyal lieutenants, Cale, emerged from the darkness, bowing low. “The packs have begun to notice the bonds fraying. The Moonshine and Golden Claw warriors are losing their edge in battle.”“Good,” I said, my voice smooth as silk. “Let

Chapter 116: The TemptationVeyron’s POVMy territory was the dreamscape. I created it with the dexterity of a skilled sculptor, fusing memories, desires, and terror into a smooth illusion. An ethereal radiance that appeared to emanate from both nowhere and everywhere was cast by the golden moon that hung low over a vast, barren plain.I waited in the middle of the plain. My guest's presence was hinted at by the gentle ruffle of the thick grass surrounding me.I turned to face Aria and said, "Welcome, Aria," with ease.Her shape appeared, stuck between the material and the ethereal, flickering like a candle flame. Her shoulders were set as though preparing for an assault, and her eyes were burning with defiance. However, this was not a battleground. I designed this area, and I controlled every aspect of it.Her voice broke the silence as she whispered, "Veyron." "What is this? One more of your games?I raised my arms wide and clarified, "Not a game." "A discussion. You've gone through

Chapter 117: The Glow of TruthDarius’s POVSitting by the flickering campfire, I felt a sharp pain in my chest. The rest were sleeping, or at least feigning it. I knew better than to assume that Killian wasn't listening for any indication of danger, even as his steady breaths rumbled from the other side of the clearing.Aria sat a few feet away, staring at the horizon as if she could force the sun to rise sooner. Her face was darkened by concern and tiredness, and she hadn't spoken much since our escape. I wanted to reassure her that everything would be well. However, I wasn't even certain myself, so how could I?I touched the mark that the cursed artifact that almost killed me had left on my chest. Since we had fled Veyron's lair, the ache has been getting worse every day, burning like fire under my skin. It was too much to handle tonight.I first assumed it was all in my head, but then I froze and glanced down.The scar was glowing in addition to burning.The sharp lines carved int

Chapter 118: The Price of PowerKillian’s POVIt was a hauntingly peaceful night, the type of stillness that made my nerves tense. As if it, too, had foreseen the impending storm, the air was charged. I held my blade gently in my palm as I stood on the edge of the camp. Aria was standing behind me, talking to Darius and Eva in subdued but agitated tones.They were talking about Veyron's increasing strength, the disintegrating alliances, and the constant rogue strikes, and I knew what they were talking about without even hearing what they had to say. We were running out of time, and everything was falling apart.I was startled out of my reverie by a stir in the woods. As I looked around the woodland, I gripped my sword's hilt tighter. Unnaturally, the shadows seemed to move, twisting and moving.Then I heard it.The growl was low.I said in a hushed voice, "Everyone, get ready."With her eyes shining dimly from the power she was still fighting to control, Aria glanced up. Darius took a

Chapter 119: The Final ChoiceAria’s POVThe prophecy's words were confusing and frustrating, swirling in my head like fog. The antique paper slipped from my shaking fingertips as I held on to it. With the faint gleam of moonlight leaking through the stained-glass roof, the Moon Temple was filled with the aroma of incense and ancient enchantment. Eva was standing to my right, quiet but alert, her eyes piercing the room for danger.On each side of me were Darius and Killian, whose presence grounded me in ways that both eased and troubled me. I was one step closer to knowing how to stop Veyron, but the decision I knew I would have to make still felt like a mountain pressing down on my chest.Here was the last fragment of the prophesy, carved into the altar stone of the temple. It pulsed in tune with my heartbeat, buzzing with vitality."The person with the Moon's Light has to decide between having the ability to bond with love or to sever it.Many are saved by one road, while one is des

Chapter 120: The ReckoningVeyron’s POVThe chilly night air was thick with the smell of defiance and terror. I was standing on a rough rock protrusion with a view of the expansive werewolf council facility. Nestled deep beneath the mountain range, the once-proud castle will soon fall under the weight of my will. A wave of anarchy and rage awaited my command, my rogue army.As though the Moon Goddess herself was trying to avoid looking at the impending bloodshed, the moon hung low in the sky, covered by a thin veil of clouds. Adapting. Unable to stop it, she would watch her cherished creation fall apart.Behind me were my generals, a jumble of outlaws, exiles, and those who had grown weary of the council's rule. Their eyes blazed with the promise of revenge, and each carried the scars of a system that had let them down.With a chilly assurance, I declared, "The council will not see the sunrise."A snarling and growling chorus echoed through the throng. I sensed their excitement and bl

Chapter 121: The Gathering StormAria’s POVThe area where the packs had gathered was bathed in a light, silvery glow as the moon hung low in the sky. Wolves from all around the region came together for the first time in generations to fight a shared foe. Centuries of tension were held together by the tenuous ceasefire between the Moonshine Packs and the Golden Claw.Killian and Darius stood on each side of me, in the center of it all. Their presence had a weight that was both comforting and oppressive. Though the circles beneath his eyes showed the toll this partnership had taken on him, Killian, to my left, exuded his normal steady strength. A reminder of how severely this conflict had damaged him and all of us, Darius flared to my right with barely contained intensity, his scar glimmering dimly in the moonlight.The field was bustling with bustle as fighters honed their weapons, discussed plans in whispers, and readied themselves for battle. I couldn't get rid of the impression, ho

Chapter 122: Bound by FlameDarius's POVThe chaos was relentless, a storm of claws, snarls, and firelight as rogues descended upon us in the dead of night. I could barely hear myself think over the sound of wolves clashing, the metallic scent of blood thick in the air. It was as though Veyron had been waiting for this exact moment, striking before we had fully solidified our fragile alliance.I tore through an advancing rogue, my claws slicing through fur and flesh, but my eyes never left Aria. She was fighting like a tempest, her movements fluid and deadly, but I could feel the strain in her every step. The glow that usually radiated from her during battle was dimmer now, and it sent a shiver of fear racing through me."Behind you!" Killian’s voice rang out, and I spun just in time to block an incoming strike. The rogue lunged for my throat, its eyes glowing with a sickly red light. I grabbed its muzzle, snapping its neck with a single twist.“This isn’t random,” Killian growled, ap

Chapter 200: A New DawnAria’s POVThe woodland was filled with the aroma of wildflowers and pine as the wind blew through the trees. The Golden Claw pack's domain was illuminated by silver light from the brilliant moon overhead. Even though I had always turned to the moon for direction, something seemed different today. Or maybe it was me that had changed.I felt whole for the first time in my life—not because of a connection, a title, or other people's expectations, but because I had created my own identity. I had reconstructed a universe from the ashes of the past, fought gods, and disobeyed old customs. I had come to this point because of every scar, decision, and sacrifice.Looking out over the peaceful landscape that extended to the horizon, I stood at the edge of the clearing. This was my heritage, my people, and my home.

Chapter 199: The Leader I’ve Become Aria’s POV The dawn broke over the camp, painting the horizon in hues of gold and crimson. I stood at the edge of the clearing, staring into the woods that had become both my refuge and my battlefield. The past few days had been relentless—a swirl of revelations, battles, and choices that had irrevocably shaped me into someone I barely recognized. And yet, I felt stronger than I ever had before. The mate bond was gone, and with it, the tether that had once dictated my choices and emotions. It was a strange kind of freedom, one that I still wasn’t entirely sure how to wield. But as I looked around at the camp bustling with activity, I knew one thing for certain: I was no longer just a survivor. I was a leader. The packs were scattered, but not broken. They were looking to me now, not as a savior or some mythical figure, but as a symbol of what we could become—a society built on choice, trust, and unity rather than ancient, unyielding traditions.

Chapter 198: Parting Words Killian’s POV The camp was quiet in the early morning, the stillness heavy with the aftermath of the latest revelation. The glowing fissure, the figure cloaked in shadow—it was a warning that none of us could ignore. Yet, as the chaos settled into a wary calm, I knew my time here was coming to an end. I watched from a distance as Aria stood at the center of the camp, her presence commanding despite her exhaustion. She gave orders with a steady voice, her pack looking to her for guidance. She’d grown into a leader far beyond what anyone could have imagined—certainly more than I had ever expected. It was why I couldn’t stay. I turned away, heading toward the edge of the camp where my warriors waited. They were restless, eager to return to the Moonshine Pack’s territory and rebuild what we’d lost. But there was something else simmering beneath their surface: doubt. The mate bond’s dissolution had left a void, one that no amount of speeches or alliances cou

Chapter 197: Whispers of Tomorrow Aria's POV The sun had fully risen by the time I returned to the main camp. The celebration from the night before had left the field littered with remnants of shared meals and extinguished fires. Wolves were already moving about, cleaning and preparing to return to their packs. Yet, despite the bustle, an air of unease lingered, as if the earth itself remembered the tremors I’d felt in the forest. I brushed off my sleepless night as I moved through the camp, nodding to warriors and pack leaders. Their gratitude warmed me, but it was clear that the weight of leadership—and of what came next—was not solely mine to bear. “Aria.” I turned at the sound of my name. Darius stood a few feet away, his gaze steady. He was dressed simply, but the way he carried himself spoke volumes of the warrior he was. He gestured toward the forest. “Walk with me?” I hesitated, glancing at the chaos of the camp. But the look in his eyes was sincere, not demanding. “Alrig

Chapter 196: The Weight of Victory Aria’s POV The night sky was alight with celebration. Bonfires crackled and danced, illuminating the open field where wolves from every pack gathered, their voices raised in song and laughter. Victory had united them, if only temporarily, and for the first time in what felt like forever, hope seemed within reach. I should have been happy. I should have been standing among them, sharing in their joy. Instead, I found myself on the outskirts of the gathering, leaning against a gnarled tree as the noise of the celebration faded into the background. The relics were destroyed, and the rogue faction was defeated. Yet the voice from the temple—the cryptic warnings of the “shattered moon”—lingered in my mind like a dark cloud. “Why aren’t you celebrating?” Selena’s voice broke through my thoughts. I turned to see her approaching, her dark hair glowing softly in the firelight. She carried a plate of food in one hand and a goblet in the other. “I could a

Chapter 195: Breaking the Chains Aria’s POV The night was unnervingly quiet, a stillness that felt heavy, foreboding. It was the kind of silence that carried the weight of something unseen, a predator’s pause before the pounce. I stood on the ridge overlooking the rogue faction’s encampment, my heart steady, my purpose clear. Beside me, Killian and Darius waited, their expressions a mix of tension and resolve. It wasn’t the first time we had stood side by side against a common enemy, but this time felt different. This wasn’t just a battle for survival—it was a battle for the future. “I’ll go in alone,” I said, my voice firm. Killian’s brow furrowed. “Aria, that’s reckless. You don’t even know how strong their defenses are.” “That’s exactly why I have to go,” I countered. “This isn’t just about brute force. It’s about dismantling the very thing that gives them power. And I’m the only one who can do that.” Darius stepped closer, his piercing gaze locking onto mine. “We’re stronger

Chapter 194: The Serpent’s Shadow Veyron’s POV Darkness. It had been my companion long before I embraced its power, and now, even in death, it clung to me like an eternal cloak. This wasn’t oblivion—I had escaped that fate by sheer will and cunning. No, I existed in the in-between, where shadows whispered and time bent like warped glass. The rogue leader knelt before me, his head bowed low, his body trembling with the weight of my presence. His name was Silas, a name that once held no meaning. But now, he was my tool, a carefully placed pawn in the grand design. “You’ve failed,” I said, my voice cold and echoing, a sharp blade cutting through the still air. Silas flinched but did not dare look up. “The packs were stronger than expected, my lord. Aria—she—” I slammed my hand onto the obsidian table before me, the ripple of power making the shadows dance around the room. “Do not speak her name so lightly. She may be the key, but she is not your concern. Your concern is doing what I

Chapter 193: Bonds Forged in Fire Darius's POV The battlefield was chaos. Screams of rage and pain tore through the air, mingling with the clash of steel and the snarls of wolves in their primal form. Blood slicked the earth beneath my boots, and the coppery scent of it burned my nostrils. But amidst the carnage, my focus was unshakable: Aria. She stood at the center of it all, a beacon of strength and defiance. Her golden blade caught the light of the setting sun, each swing carving a path through the shadowed beasts that Silas had unleashed. She fought like she had been born for this moment, her movements fluid and unrelenting. Killian was to her left, his powerful frame a blur as he shifted between his wolf and human forms, tearing through the rogue forces. His fighting style was brutal but precise, a testament to years of training and instinct. And I was at her right, guarding her flank, ensuring no threat got close enough to harm her. We didn’t need words to coordinate; every

Chapter 192: The Rising Flame Aria's POV The shadows pressed in from all sides, their cold tendrils coiling around me like a living vice. Silas's laughter echoed through the darkness, a haunting melody of triumph. For a fleeting moment, doubt crept into my heart. Was this it? Was I truly out of my depth? But then, a warmth began to stir within me, faint but steady. It was the same energy I had felt in the ancient temple—the power that had surged through me when the mate bond system broke. The Moon Goddess’s rival might have sought to manipulate that moment, but the strength that pulsed in my veins now was entirely my own. I closed my eyes, blocking out Silas’s voice and the suffocating weight of the darkness. Instead, I focused inward, drawing on the fire that burned in my core. It grew hotter and brighter until it was no longer something I controlled but something I unleashed. With a cry, I released the energy, and the shadows around me exploded into shards of light. I fell to on
