137. The Least Evil

작가: Medara
last update 게시일: 2026-08-22 19:24:44

🛡️ Stone POV

Alaric was back.

And angry.

Neither of those things could ever be mistaken for anything else.

The cold detachment and quiet power Fenrir carried everywhere with him had shifted in one brutal heartbeat into something that screamed danger.

That was not the unusual part.

That was the version of Fenrir we had known before Arria.

The thing was that the air felt alive.

Breathing.

Waiting.

And that meant one thing.

Death.

For everyone within range.

And with the speed he had displayed jus

  • Born to shine   203. A New Master

    🍃 Arria POVThree more days was all we had left before we marched toward the portal, and the closer we got, the harder it became to ignore everything I still didn’t know.Fiona refused to surface, which meant I wouldn’t have access to the stronger, dominant form of a werewolf in battle.Worse, none of my experiments with plants had brought me any closer to understanding how the elves were planning to suppress Alaric’s curse during the full moon.Мy unease grew with every passing day, and the need to do something—to be more useful—kept pulling me toward the one path that had always been mine alone to walk.To subjugate the thorns inside the enemy forces.Which was why, eventually, I found myself considering experimenting on Aron.Every other implanted person within the alliance had been observed and gradually influenced until their thorn’s loyalty shifted away from Vaerion.Aron was the only exception.Deliberately.Whenever anyone suggested otherwise, I took responsibility for him im

  • Born to shine   202. Just Ask

    🦊 Melanie POVOur small miracle chose that exact moment to make itself known to the world.The sound of its heartbeat suddenly filled the room with a fast, rhythmic thud.We froze.My hand was still resting in Aron’s.But his eyes were no longer on my face.They dropped lower.To the place where the invisible life was resting peacefully beneath my own heart.My free hand moved over my stomach before a thought could fully form.It was there.Truly.Not because Fenrir had said so.Because I could finally sense it for myself.For a moment, I was too stunned—and at the same time too overwhelmed by the emotions surging through me—to think about anything else.My baby.The words echoed through my head in pure wonder as I unconsciously held my breath, completely focused on the rapid beat of its tiny heart.Then a barely noticeable twitch of fingers against mine pulled me back to the present.Aron.My attention snapped back to him.His eyes were still fixed on my stomach.His face carefully

  • Born to shine   201. Lifeline

    🦊 Melanie POVI slammed the bond shut.I couldn’t take another feeling, another thought, another glimpse of something Aron had kept buried beneath that impossible calm.Not now.I didn’t know what to say, so I turned back toward the road and started walking.Aron didn’t ask a thing.Didn’t push.Simply fell into step beside me and walked home in silence.By the time we reached the house, I had convinced myself that work would help.It usually did.The documents I hadn’t finished reviewing about the distribution of medicines were still waiting for me on the table.I sat down, opened the first one, and began reading.But by the time I reached the end of the first page, I hadn’t absorbed a single sentence.My thoughts kept circling back.Again.And again.To everything I had felt through Aron.To everything I had refused to see before.Since the day the court had found him not guilty, Aron had changed the way he treated me.And I...I hadn’t.Not at all.The shared dinners hadn’t matter

  • Born to shine   200. For Me

    🦊 Melanie POVAron finished presenting the plan for protecting the civilians in case part of the enemy forces attempted some kind of diversion.No one had anything else to add.No objections.No corrections.Perfect.I hated how easily the word came to mind nowadays.“Dismissed.”Fenrir ended the meeting with his usual lack of ceremony.Chairs scraped against the floor.Conversation rose in small clusters as people began filing out of the room.I stayed in my place, waiting for Arria.We hadn’t had a chance to talk properly since they had awakened her wolf, and everything I knew had come secondhand from others.Aron didn’t move either.I turned my head and gave him a critical look.I wanted some time alone with Arria.Alone being the important part.Ever since Aron had returned from his so-called sparring session with Fenrir, he had been attached to me like a shadow.If I went to the school, he walked me there, and when I came out through the gates later, he was already waiting for m

  • Born to shine   199. Battle Plan

    🍃 Arria POVSeven days.That was all we had left until the full moon.Until the elven invasion.Until the war that would decide the fate of our realm.“Why don’t we attack the palace before the full moon?” one of the Alphas around the table asked.“It would be easier to win without the elves supporting Vaerion and the King, wouldn’t it?” another chimed in.“It makes sense,” several more agreed.“Divide the enemy and defeat one group after another.”A wave of small, approving nods moved around the table.“A prophecy was made a little over a month ago,” I told them. “It stated that on the full moon, the world shall burn.”Uneasiness moved through the room.Several expressions tightened.Then one of the Alphas frowned.“A prophecy? Really? By whom? Werewolves don’t have prophets.”I turned my head toward him.“I see you already know the answer. It was made by an elf,” I pointed out. “So what exactly are you implying?”He shifted uncomfortably beneath my scrutinizing gaze.“It’s just tha

  • Born to shine   198. Completed

    🍃 Arria POVFenrir took a sharp turn halfway down the corridor and pushed open the door to his office instead of carrying me to our bedroom.'Absolutely not,' Fiona said, thoroughly offended.Before I could decide whether I was irritated too or simply amused by her outrage, he set me down on the edge of his desk and stepped away.Then he crossed to one of the cabinets, opened it, crouched in front of a lower drawer, and began pulling things out with maddening calm.“What are you doing?” I asked, still a little breathless from the way he had just carried me here.Fenrir didn’t answer immediately.'He kissed us half senseless, carried us off like prey, and then brought us to the office?'I laughed despite myself.'If he gives you work, I am going to—'What?Scream through the mindlink?Manifest?Go on. Tell me.'You! You...'I shook my head indulgently.'You are not supposed to be on their side.'It is all our side.You are just dragging out the inevitable.And just so you know, your s

  • Born to shine   5. Accusations

    5 days later When I arrived, the yard was empty. The laughter that usually greeted me was gone. Inside, the children were sitting in rows behind desks while an instructor stood in front of the room. “Extra lessons,” one of the caretakers explained when she noticed me standing by the door. “The

  • Born to shine   4. A House

    In the days that followed, changes began to appear everywhere. Patrols along the borders doubled. Training sessions started earlier and ended later. Warriors who had once joked with one another in the yard now moved with a sharper focus. At first the pack welcomed it. Strength always brings comfo

  • Born to shine   3. Duty Calls

    The pack was left in the hands of the Beta family. Again. And I was left to think about what to do from now on. There was a huge possibility that I would never be truly a werewolf. In fact, according to our history 18th was the last threshold. My parents' obsession with believing I had a wolf w

  • Born to shine   2. The Wolf

    A year later. Sixteen. The age when a wolf answers. The clearing was filled once again. Torches circled the altar. Warriors lined the perimeter. Children were lifted onto shoulders. My father’s voice carried across the gathering. “Tonight, our future steps fully into her power.” Cheers erupte
