The forest no longer remembered what it meant to sleep.

Every leaf hummed faintly under the breath of the new dawn, as if the world itself was relearning how to exist. Shadows stretched in colors they’d never worn before—soft silver, bruised gold, the hues of something half-born.

We walked beneath them in silence.

Julian moved ahead, his blade slung across his back, his every step measured. Cassian walked behind me, his limp faint but constant, the echo of an old wound that refused to heal. And I... I was somewhere between them, yet not truly with them.

The earth pulsed under my feet like a living thing. Each heartbeat of the world resonated inside me, tangled with my own. I could no longer tell where my pulse ended and its began.

Cassian’s voice broke the stillness. "You haven’t slept in three nights."

"I don’t need to," I said.

He gave a quiet snort. "That’s what people say before they fall apart."

I glanced back at him. His dark hair had grown longer since I’d last seen him, brushi

  • He Betrayed Me For A Human   Chapter 52: Mirror

    The silence tasted like ash.When I opened my eyes, the world was nothing but a blur of silver and soot. The air shimmered, humming faintly as if the ground itself was remembering what had happened. Every breath burned through my lungs—raw, heavy, real.I tried to move, but my body felt like it had been torn apart and stitched back with light. The last thing I remembered was Riven’s voice—low, calm, steady—before the wildness in me broke loose and devoured everything around us."—Elara?"A voice. Familiar. Hoarse.My vision steadied, and through the haze, I saw him. Dareth.His arm was wrapped in bandages, his face streaked with dirt and blood, but his eyes—those amber eyes—were still the same. Loyal, steady, unyielding."Thank the moon goddess, you’re awake," he whispered, dropping to one knee beside me. "You were gone for almost two days. We thought—"He didn’t finish.Behind him, the Duskwind camp was a graveyard of half-burnt tents and shattered weapons. The trees bore black scars

    The fire’s scent grew stronger the closer we came to the river valley.Ash clung to our cloaks, dampened by mist that refused to lift. Even the air felt scorched—tainted with the memory of something burning too long, too deep.Cassian moved ahead, blades drawn, his silhouette a blur through the smoke. Dareth followed behind me, limping slightly but refusing to slow down. The forest that had once whispered now held its breath, as though it feared what waited below.Julian murmured, "The wards around this place are gone. I can’t feel any of them anymore.""Then we make our own," I said.Riven, walking a few paces ahead, didn’t answer. His hand hovered near his sword, but his focus wasn’t on the ground—it was on the horizon, where a faint orange glow bled through the fog.When we reached the ridge, the valley opened before us.What used to be a river was now a scar of blackened earth. The water had boiled away, leaving behind cracked mud that pulsed faintly with gold veins—like veins ben

  • He Betrayed Me For A Human   Chapter 50: The Night the Forest Answered

    The first days of Duskwind passed in uneasy rhythm.The forest had accepted us—but not quietly.It breathed around our camp, alive in ways that made even the bravest wolves glance at the trees before sleeping. Sometimes, the wind carried whispers that weren’t quite words. Sometimes, the ground itself seemed to sigh beneath our feet.Three days since Riven arrived, and already, the air had begun to shift again.We built our camp around the ruins of an old stone temple—its walls half-eaten by moss, its altar split clean through the middle. Julian said it once belonged to the first keepers of the moon, long before packs and thrones.Now it belonged to no one.Now it belonged to us."Two missing from the south patrol," Cassian reported, his voice clipped. "They didn’t return last night."Julian frowned. "Were they rookies?""Rogues from the river group. They were stationed with Riven’s unit."The air between them thickened.My gaze shifted toward the training ground, where Riven stood at

  • He Betrayed Me For A Human   Chapter 49: The Birth of Duskwind

    The forest was still breathing in the aftermath of power.Not divine power—something older, wilder, and more alive. The air trembled faintly, carrying scents of damp moss, smoke, and fur. The silence that followed wasn’t empty, it pulsed like a living thing. Every breath, every shift of wind felt like the world itself waiting to see what I would do next.I stood in the clearing where everything had changed.Where the old had died, and something unnamed was trying to rise.Around me, wolves gathered—rogues, outcasts, exiles, fragments of shattered loyalties. Broken wolves who no longer remembered what it meant to belong.They had followed my call, not out of faith, but desperation. Their eyes glowed faintly in the dim light, some golden, some pale blue, all carrying the weight of too many losses.They watched me like one watches a storm—fearful, yet unable to look away.Cassian stood beside me, posture alert, his hand resting on the hilt of his sword. Julian hovered near the fire, his

  • He Betrayed Me For A Human   Chapter 48: The Wolves Without Chains

    The dawn after his howl felt different.Not colder. Not quieter.Just heavier—like the air itself remembered his name and refused to let it go.Kaelus’s presence had faded with the night, yet it lingered in the bones of the forest. Every branch seemed to lean toward the east, as if waiting for the storm to return.But I didn’t.I was done waiting for him.We had work to do.***"Spread them out," I said, my voice cutting through the fog. "Pairs first. No one moves alone."The rogues obeyed slowly—hesitant, uncertain. They weren’t used to commands that didn’t come with a snarl or a threat. Their bodies moved with instinct, not discipline. Every gesture carried the ghost of survival, not unity.Julian and Cassian exchanged a glance but didn’t interfere. They knew better than to interrupt when I was building something new.I stepped between the scattered wolves, watching the way they moved.A young male with dark fur limped as he tried to shift back to human form. A silver-eyed female ke
