All Chapters of THE LUNA'S ECLIPSE: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

MAGNAR’S POVI paced the length of my room, my fists clenched at my sides. Something was off. I’d felt it for a while now, ever since that damn slave incident. My father had always been a controlling Alpha, but his actions lately went beyond his usual paranoia. He’d tightened the leash on the slaves, especially those who hadn’t shifted yet.At first, I thought it was just him being his ruthless self. My father doesn’t care about them—he never has. To him, they’re tools, expendable assets to serve the pack. But now? Now, he was keeping them closer, monitoring their every move.Why?What was so special about these wolves that he’d suddenly shifted his focus onto them?I sat down heavily on the edge of my bed, raking a hand through my hair. The slaves weren’t even allowed to leave the packhouse anymore, except to work in the neighboring homes. At night, they were all confined to the basement, no exceptions. It wasn’t normal. My father wasn’t protecting them; he was watching them. Waiting

MAGNAR’S POV“What happened? Why is he returning so soon?” I asked, my voice laced with frustration.Braden was slightly out of breath as he met me in the hallway, his face shadowed with concern. “I don’t know. I was tracing their location like you asked, but then I noticed their route changed. They’re coming back earlier than planned. I had to alert you immediately.”I nodded, trying to keep my irritation in check. Braden had done his part, and honestly, he’d done it well. He always did. He was good with technology—better than anyone else in the pack—and as my future beta, he was the one person I trusted with my life.Still, this early return threw everything into chaos. I had been counting on more time.“Did you find anything?” he asked, his tone low and cautious, but there was a glint of curiosity in his eyes.“Not really,” I replied vaguely, avoiding his gaze. I wasn’t ready to talk about what I’d found—or what little I understood of it.Braden narrowed his eyes. “What do you mean

VALERIA’S POVI was relieved that Elijah’s behavior didn’t change after that day. Despite everything, he treated me the same as always, and for that, I was grateful. I had half-expected him to pull away, to distance himself after learning more about me. But no, he remained steady, patient, and unyielding. It was comforting in a way I hadn’t anticipated.We resumed training soon after, and every day I could feel myself improving—getting stronger, faster, more focused. My old pack, cruel as it was, left me with one gift that proved invaluable during my training: my pain tolerance. Years of enduring punishment had hardened my body and mind in ways I hadn’t fully appreciated until now.Each bruise, each ache from Elijah’s rigorous sessions, was a mark of progress, not suffering. I endured it all, letting it fuel me, and over time, I began to see the results. My muscles became toned, my reflexes sharper, and my stamina nearly unmatched. Elijah often pushed me to my limits, and though it wa

ALPHA DIMITRI'S POVI leaned back in my chair, fingers steepled as I contemplated my next move. Magnar was becoming a thorn in my side—not because he wasn’t capable, but because he believed himself ready for the Alpha title when he clearly wasn’t. His arrogance and impulsiveness were dangerous traits in a leader. He needed to learn, and if he wouldn’t listen to words, then I’d have to teach him through action.With that thought, I mind-linked him. “Magnar, meet me in my office.”I wanted to see his reaction to the task I had in mind. This wasn’t just about giving him something important to do—it was about testing him. If he wanted the Alpha title so badly, then let him work for it. Let him prove, not just to me but to the entire pack, that he was capable.Fifteen minutes later, Magnar strode into my office, his posture confident but his eyes restless. He took his usual seat across from me without hesitation. Ever since he turned eighteen, he’d started adopting this bold attitude, thin

MAGNAR’S POVIt was my duty tonight, and the forest was silent save for the occasional rustle of leaves in the wind. The chill of the night wrapped around me, but I barely noticed it as I patrolled the third round of the boundary. My focus was unwavering, my instincts sharp. This expansion project couldn’t afford any setbacks, especially under my leadership.That’s when I saw it—a faint column of smoke rising in the distance, barely visible under the moonlight. I froze in my tracks, narrowing my eyes to make sure I wasn’t imagining things.Who would light a fire at this time of night?It couldn’t be rogues; they rarely announced their presence so openly. But then again, rogues were unpredictable. Worse, it could be hunters. Humans had their ways of blending into the forest, waiting to ambush unsuspecting wolves.My heart quickened, but I kept my composure. I immediately mind-linked one of my patrol teams stationed nearby. "Yannis, take your warriors and check the source of that smoke.
