All Chapters of Marked by Moonlight: A Rejected Mate's Redemption: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

Rey and Luna decided it was time to return to Silverwood, as their concerns about the situation with the dark mages and the Lycans grew stronger. They felt that Hyperion wasn't being fully transparent and that Seraphina's safety couldn't be entrusted to him.As they made their way out of the mansion and towards their horses, Luna raised a question about informing Lucius of their plans. Rey hesitated, considering the weight of his existing worries about the dark mages, the Lycans, and the missing Asher and Magnus."He has a lot on his plate right now," Rey replied, her hand on the reins of her horse as they reached the stables. "I'm sure he's concerned about the situation with the dark mages, the Lycans, and especially Asher and Magnus."Luna nodded in understanding, "You're right. He's got enough to handle at the moment. Let's focus on gathering more information and returning to Silverwood safely."With a determined nod, Rey mounted her horse, Luna doing the same. They shared a glance

Alpha Magnus and Asher followed the trail from the descriptions the had, it led to them to a plain that was filled with lush vegetation and no trees.“This is quite the view", Asher said as he walked along and absorbed the scenery.“Well, I’m not sure why we are here but we need to make sure that this isn’t a mistake”, Alpha Magnus replied. “You think that there could be something else, maybe like an ambush??”, Inquired Asher.“Things have been off for the past couple of months, its almost like there is someone that has carefully planned for the events that unfolded", Alpha Magnus replied. “That is the real enemy, one that has made pawns of all of us and still continues to do so"Asher nodded his head as the walked along the grassy plain. They scanned around for any signs of black thorn and/or his wolves."Can you smell that?", Alpha Magnus asked Asher as they walked on."It may be faint but I can smell the remnants of adrenaline and struggle. There was definitely a battle that occur

It had been a week since the fall of the capital, a week of relentless nightmares and haunting memories that refused to let Rey rest. The events of the past week had left deep scars on her Rey and sleep had become a torment she couldn't escape.The anxiety attacks had become more frequent and each time it's effects were more profound. Rey could feel herself slowly loosing it. Rey's eyes were wide open, staring at the canopy of leaves above her, the trio had set up camp for the night under a cluster of trees. Rey's mind was trapped in a relentless cycle of images from the last few weeks. The burning buildings, the screams of the pack members, and the relentless onslaught of the Lycans haunted her every night. She tried to push the memories away, but they clung to her like shadows.***It all started when Asher and Alpha Magnus set out to find the remains of Black Bourne. The duo mysteriously vanished, the pack was heavily affected by this twist of events."I knew that this was a trap"

"You are leading us Rey", Lucius said to Rey with a smile. Rey sighed as Luna helped her to her feet, She could feel her body healing rapidly.Rey's body continued to mend, the pain gradually fading into the background as she regained her strength. "Do you still feel Seraphina?" Luna asked Rey."I do""Why don't we just find Seraphina first?, That would be the best decision at this point", Lucius said. "We don't have time, Silverwood needs us", Rey said. "We need the forest alive, it is the source of Light magic""We must gather our supplies then," Lucius said. "We revive the forest and then we go after Seraphina.""No, she will find us. She needs the magic if the forest", Rey replied. "Right now, she is tethering on the brink of life and death""Then we should set off now", Luna said.As Rey stood up, her body now nearly fully healed, she nodded in agreement. Luna fetched their bags and essential supplies. The trio resumed their journey to Silverwood, as they got closer and close

"If I tell you what should happen next, it won't happen", Seraphina said. "You three have roles to play and so you must figure it out on your own""You knew we would revive you and the forest, didn't you?", Rey asked."I hoped, I hoped that you would find your way here and so I took a gamble", Seraphina replied."A gamble?, I have been wondering how this forest barrier was broken through. But it wasn't broken through, was it?", Lucius asked. "You allowed them in... why?"Rey turned to Seraphina in shock, she had never considered that possibility but as she thought of it, it slowly made more sense to her. Seraphina had to have let the Lycans in and she had to have allowed the forest be destroyed."You gambled on your own life?", Rey queried. "It doesn't make sense.""I had to make sure things go according to plan", Seraphina replied. "I had to make sure we have a fighting chance and so I had to put everything on the line""I don't get what the play is here...", Luna said."You will see.
