By the time she made her way down the stairs, Theron was already waiting for her in the front courtyard. He stood near a black car, his posture straight, his expression calm— maybe even too calm.Leora quickened her steps. “Good morning, Theron.”He bowed his head slightly. “Good morning, Luna.”“How long have you been waiting for me?” she asked staring at the black circles under his eyes.‘Looks like he didn't get any sleep’ she thought to herself.“Two hours my lady” he replied She tilted her head. “Do you always stand this stiff? Don’t your legs get tired?”“No, Luna.”“Really? Not even a little?”He opened the car back door for her without meeting her gaze. “No, my lady.”Leora scoffed as she slid into the seat. “You’re really not much of a talker, are you?”Theron closed the door, walked around, and got into the driver’s seat. “Not when it’s unnecessary.”“That’s… none of business, just make sure that you sleep next time. I can't have you following me around looking like I overw

The sky was dark and the moon cast a pale glow over the kingdom. Guards patrolled lazily at the far ends of the wall, unaware of the figure slipping through the shadows. Theron moved silently, his steps sure and careful. He left the palace grounds without hesitation, pulling his dark hood over his head as he passed through the gate and disappeared into the forest path.At the far side of the forest, a black horse was tied to a tree. Theron got on the horse and rode into the night. After some minutes, he stopped in front of a small wooden house tucked away between the trees. He tapped lightly on the door.“It’s me.” he said with a voice just above a whisper.There was a pause at first then the sound of footsteps. The door creaked open just enough to reveal a woman’s scanning eyes. When she recognized him, her face softened, and she quickly allowed him inside. Theron pulled down his hood and sat at the small table, a frown plastered on his face . Lyandra poured him a cup of tea and sli

“Claw…use your claws” Theron ordered. “They are the only defense you have in wolf form”The clang of fists against flesh, the growl of wolves locked in combat, and the thud of bodies hitting the dirt filled the training grounds. Dust swirled with every strike, the sharp scent of sweat and earth thick in the air.“Focus! You call that a hit?” one of the older warriors barked, shoving his opponent back.Growls and snarls rippled across the field as wolves lunged at one another, silver fangs glinting in the sun. They tore at the ground with their claws, testing strength, speed, and instincts.Suddenly, a loud voice cut through the chaos.“Enough!”The command rolled like thunder. Instantly, the warriors broke apart. One by one, their forms shifted—bones snapping, teeth retracting, muscles twisting until skin replaced furs . In seconds, the field was filled with men and women in simple training clothes, standing tall and breathless.At the middle of the training grounds stood a man in his

The next morning, Aunt Zaria entered Leora's room to find her pacing about restlessly.“Child…are you okay? What is the problem?” She asked, concerned.Leora was immediately pulled out of her thoughts, she turned to face her aunt, who stared at her with a curious look .“Look at your face” she said noticing the dark circles under Leora's eyes. “…did you get get any sleep at all?”Leora wanted to but she couldn't bring herself to tell her aunt about what she had heard last night. She was afraid Aunt Zaria would think we were going crazy.Leora sat down on the edge of the bed, her fingers knotting together as she let out a long sigh. “This whole thing about finding a mate. Why is that so important? Why can’t I just… I don’t know, unlock my wolf abilities on my own?”Her aunt joined her, sitting beside her with a quiet grace, . “Leora, you are not like the others. If you had been born of two wolves, your abilities would have awakened at birth. You would have shifted by now, and the bond

*** Many years later Leora stepped out of the car, her heels clicking against the cobblestone path as her gaze drifted upward. The massive iron gates of the kingdom stood before her, engraved with old runes that glistened faintly under the sun. She let out a long, tired sigh.“Great,” she muttered, tugging her jacket tighter around herself. “Ten out of ten for creepy grandeur, zero for hospitality.”This already feels like the opening scene of a horror movie. All that’s missing is thunder and a creepy violin soundtrack.”Beside her, a woman in her forties with sharp eyes and elegant grace stepped out of the car. Her aunt Zaria, brushed a strand of hair from her face, smirking at Leora’s comment.“It’s not so bad, love,” Zaria said, looping her arm through hers. “Besides, this is your home now. You’ll be the ruler of this kingdom.”Leora stopped mid-step and turned to stare at her aunt like she had said the unspeakable. “Ruler? Of this kingdom?” She gestured dramatically

The night was filled with the thick scent of smoke that swallowed the whole of the Crestwood kingdom.The palace which was once a peaceful place was now stained with blood and stench of the brave bodies of wolves who had perished defending their Luna. From a distance away, you could hear haunting howls that replaced the eerie silence, the clash of steel and the growls of those still battling for the throne.But In the heart of the all these chaos, Luna Selene stood strong and unwavering.Her silver hair whipped wildly, following the direction of the wind, stained with dirt and streaked with blood. The hem of her once-innocent gown was torn and drenched in the blood dripping from a deep wound in her arm. Her golden crown gleamed dimly in the firelight, her eyes sharp as the very moon casting shadows above. She was weak but she wasn't going to give up…not when all was at stake.“Crestwood does not fall tonight!” she roared, raising her blade high.A mocking laugh shattered her words.“E
