Zara's POV

The forest is quiet tonight, the kind of quiet that feels heavy, like the world is holding its breath. The twins are asleep in their room, their small bodies curled together under a blanket of moonlight. I sit on the porch, my fingers tracing the rim of a teacup I haven’t touched. The steam has long since faded, but I can’t bring myself to move.

Ryland steps out of the shadows, his presence a low hum against my senses. He doesn’t say anything at first, just leans against the railing and stares into the trees.

“Can’t sleep?” he asks finally, his voice soft.

I shake my head. “Too much noise in my head.”

He nods, like he understands. Maybe he does. The weight of the pack, the twins, the constant threat of Zane—it’s a lot for anyone to carry.

“They’re getting stronger,” he says after a moment. “The twins. Lira says they’re progressing faster than she expected.”

“That’s not always a good thing,” I murmur, my gaze drifting to the window where the twins sleep. “They’

  • MOONBOUND SECRETS    Chapter 129: Fractured Legacy(Expanded)

    **Chapter 129: Fractured Legacy (Expanded)** --- **Silas’s Choice** The Trinity’s claws dig deeper, Zara’s light flickering like a candle in a storm. Silas’s breath hitches as pain radiates from his scar, a molten brand searing through his resolve. The Veil’s chaos pulses around them, the air thick with the stench of rot and ozone. *“Choose, little Alpha,”* the Trinity taunts, its tri-colored eye narrowing. *“Her… or them.”* Zara’s spectral face twists in agony, her voice fraying. *“Silas, let me go. Save the pack—”* “No!” The word tears from him, raw and desperate. Selene’s hand clamps around his wrist, her glow flaring. *“There’s another way,”* she whispers through their bond. *“The scar isn’t just a key—it’s a bridge. We can redirect the energy!”* Silas grits his teeth, his mind racing. *A bridge.* The scar thrums, memories flooding him—Zara’s laughter, her hands guiding his claws during his first shift, her final smile before the tomb swallowed her. “Now!” Selene

  • MOONBOUND SECRETS    Chapter 127: The Trinity Gambit

    **Silas’s POV** The Trinity steps forward, its tri-colored eye burning like a dying star. The ground beneath its feet cracks, veins of violet and gold spreading like poisoned roots. Its voice echoes with the First Shadow’s malice, the crow’s cunning, and something else—something raw and hungry. *“You cannot run from inevitability,”* it croons, flexing a hand woven of shadow and light. *“The Veil’s chaos is my birthright.”* The void wolf circles us, its eyeless gaze piercing. Selene grips my arm, her bloodied sleeve staining my skin. “We need to split up. Distract it.” Jarek steps between us and the Trinity, his dagger trembling. “Go. I’ll hold it.” “You’ll die,” I snap. He bares his teeth. “Better than living useless.” The Trinity laughs, a sound like shattering glass. *“How noble. Let’s test that.”* It flicks a finger. The void wolf lunges. **Selene’s Flight** We sprint into the skeletal forest, the Trinity’s laughter chasing us. My glow flickers, strained from s

  • MOONBOUND SECRETS    Chapter 126: The Gray Dawn

    **Silas’s POV** The scar itches. Not the searing pain of before, but a slow, creeping burn that makes my skin crawl. I scratch at it absently, my gaze locked on the golden crow—*gray-eyed* crow—perched in the dead oak. Its once-bright plumage is dull, streaked with ash, and it watches me with an unsettling stillness. “It’s changing,” I mutter to Selene. She doesn’t look up from the map of Veil fractures. “Everything’s changing.” The pack’s camp buzzes with wary energy. Wolves sharpen blades, mutter prayers, and side-eye Jarek as he hauls water from the creek. His shoulders are hunched, his movements mechanical, like a puppet held together by guilt. Ryland emerges from his tent, his gaze sweeping the clearing. “Scouts report a new tear near the southern ridge. Selene, Silas—you’ll lead the team to seal it.” Jarek steps forward, his voice rough. “Let me go instead. They shouldn’t risk—” “You’ve risked enough,” Ryland snaps. The crow caws abruptly, its gray eye flashing.

  • MOONBOUND SECRETS    Chapter 125: Bond Of Blood and Shadow

    **Ryland’s POV** The pack’s council fire burns low, its embers reflecting the fractured trust in the wolves’ eyes. Jarek sits apart, his head bowed, the shadow crow’s corruption scrubbed from his veins but not his soul. The guilt radiating from him is palpable, a stench even the night wind can’t carry away. Kieran tosses a log onto the fire, sparks spiraling into the dark. “We need to fortify the borders. The Veil’s tears are seeping into the territory. Last night, the river turned black.” Murmurs ripple through the pack. A young mother clutches her pup closer. “Will it spread here?” “No,” I say, the lie smooth and heavy. “We’ll contain it.” Jarek’s laugh is a broken rasp. “You don’t even believe that.” Silence falls. The fire crackles, its light flickering over the scars we all wear. Selene steps into the circle, her glow dim but steady. “The Veil’s heart is weak, but not broken. We can still save it.” “How?” Jarek challenges. “With more sacrifices? More *children’s*

  • MOONBOUND SECRETS    Chapter 124: Fractured Loyalties

    **Ryland’s POV** The ground splinters beneath our feet, jagged fissures snaking outward like veins of decay. The air vibrates with the Veil’s anguished scream, a sound that claws at the mind and soul. Jarek stands at the tomb’s entrance, the black shard pulsing in his grip, his eyes twin pools of violet fire. “You’ve doomed us all,” I snarl, shifting as the pack scatters behind me. He laughs, the shadow crow perched on his shoulder like a twisted crown. “No, Alpha. I’ve *freed* us.” The shard’s energy writhes around him, tendrils of darkness lashing at the crumbling stone. Behind him, the tomb’s heart—a fractured mirror—quivers, its remaining shards teetering on the edge of collapse. “Stand down, Jarek,” I growl, circling him. “This isn’t you.” “Isn’t it?” He bares his teeth, the corruption snaking up his neck. “You coddled those brats while the pack starved for strength. The Shadow offers what you never could.” The shadow crow croons, its voice harmonizing with the Vei

  • MOONBOUND SECRETS    Chapter 123: Veil's Underworld

    **Selene’s POV** The water is ice and fire, clawing at my skin as I’m dragged deeper. My glow flickers, struggling against the suffocating darkness. The golden shard gleams below, its light distorted by the rippling surface. “Let go!” I scream, kicking at the clawed hand gripping my ankle. The creature—half shadow, half memory—turns, its face a grotesque mockery of Zara’s. *“You cannot mend what you refuse to face,”* it hisses. I focus on the bond, on Silas’s frantic presence. *“I’m here,”* I whisper, though the water steals my voice. The golden crow’s cry pierces the depths. *“Remember.”* --- **Silas’s Desperation** The lake’s surface freezes over the moment Selene disappears. I slam my fists against the ice, the scar on my chest burning. “Selene!” The golden crow lands beside me, its gold eye dim. *“The Veil tests her. You must face your own trial.”* “I’m not leaving her!” *“You must,”* it insists. *“Or you’ll both be lost.”* The ice cracks beneath my hands,
