Gandal's voice, laced with nervous excitement, cut through the din of Joey's bar. "Deimon," he called out, raising his glass in a mock salute. "A toast to friendly competition, wouldn't you say?"Deimon, perched on a barstool across from him, narrowed his eyes. The air crackled with unspoken tension. Gandal's intentions were clear โ he wanted Kate, and he wasn't afraid to challenge Deimon for her heart."What are you playing at, Gandal?" Deimon growled, his voice low and dangerous.Gandal leaned forward, a mischievous glint in his eyes. "Nothing serious, just a bit of fun. You see," he continued, lowering his voice so only Deimon could hear, "I intend to win Kate's heart. So, I propose a little wager."Deimon scoffed. "A wager? You think you can just win Kate over with some barroom bet?"Gandal grinned. "Perhaps not. But I believe in my chances. So, how about it? Winner gets to ask Kate out on a proper date. And the loserโฆ" He trailed off, letting the unspoken consequence hang in the

A hush fell over the bar as Anna's words echoed through the air. The playful tension that had ignited between Deimon and Gandal morphed into something far more ancient, a forgotten echo of a bygone era."An Earth Stalker?" Gandal breathed, a hint of awe creeping into his voice. The legendary rabbit hybrid, a creature whispered about in hushed tones and dusty records, was suddenly more than just a bargaining chip in their reckless bet for Kate's heart.Deimon felt a surge of adrenaline course through him. This wasn't some barroom brawl; this was a challenge steeped in tradition, a forgotten duel resurfacing from the ashes of a more savage time. The possessiveness that had clouded his judgment earlier receded, replaced by a primal urge to compete, to hunt.Kate, however, remained bewildered. This wasn't the resolution she had envisioned. The weight of a forgotten tradition pressing down on her filled her with unease. "An Earth Stalker?" she echoed, her voice barely a whisper.Anna, ever

The forest floor became a blur beneath their feet as Deimon and Gandal plunged into the Whispering Woods, the setting sun painting the leaves in hues of orange and red. The air hung thick with the scent of damp earth and decaying leaves, a primal challenge to their senses. The playful camaraderie of moments ago evaporated, replaced by a focused determination that bordered on desperation.Gandal, ever the strategist, opted for a methodical approach. He used his keen eyesight to scan the towering trees, searching for any sign of movement or a glint of fur against the darkening sky. With practiced movements, he set traps and snares along their path, hoping to catch the Earthstalker off guard.Deimon, in contrast, wove through the undergrowth with a primal grace, his years of honing his senses honed to a razor's edge. He wasn't relying solely on sight or sound. There was an energy signature, faint but undeniable, pulling him deeper into the woods. It was the Earthstalker, a whisper on the

The walk back to the pack house was shrouded in an oppressive silence. The playful banter and nervous excitement of the morning had been replaced by a heavy blanket of dread. Kate clutched her cloak around her, seeking comfort in the familiar scent of fur and pine needles, but it did little to dispel the cold that seeped into her bones.Deimon, uncharacteristically subdued, lumbered beside her, the Earthstalker's head secured to his belt like a grotesque trophy. The creature's lifeless eyes seemed to follow them, a constant reminder of the brutality that had taken place."Deimon," Kate finally dared to speak, her voice barely a whisper.He flinched at the sound of her name, his head snapping towards her. Shame flickered in his eyes, a flicker quickly overshadowed by a flicker of defiance. "I won," he stated, his voice gruff. "Just like the rules said."But the defiance rang hollow. Kate saw through it, saw the turmoil churning beneath the surface. "Winning doesn't matter anymore, Deim

The rooster's crow pierced the pre-dawn darkness, a harsh alarm clock that jolted Deimon awake. He sat up abruptly, the events of the previous night crashing down on him like a tidal wave. Shame burned in his gut, the memory of the Earthstalker's lifeless eyes a constant reminder of his savagery.But amidst the self-loathing, a spark of hope flickered. Kate's gentle touch, her unwavering trust โ they were a lifeline thrown to him in the storm. He had a lot to make up for, but for the first time, he felt a clear path forward.He needed to see Anna. He needed answers, not just about Kate's tormentor, but about the darkness that had consumed him during the competition. Throwing on his clothes, he raced out of the hut, the cool morning air a welcome slap against his feverish cheeks.As he sprinted towards the training grounds, a memory surfaced, sharp and unexpected. It was Anna, her voice a low murmur in his ear, just before the start of the competition. "Win, Deimon," she'd whispered,

The sun was setting, casting a fiery glow across the horizon. Deimon stood on the balcony of his apartment, staring out at the sprawling grounds of Umbra Academy. It was a place of power and prestige, but also one of danger and deceit. Recent events had only reinforced that truth.Inside, Kate was probably unpacking the last of her things. Since she had moved in with Deimon and Killian, the place had felt differentโwarmer, more alive. Despite her being wolfless, there was something about her that drew him in. His wolf, Onyx, was particularly intrigued by her. Restless now, Onyx paced in the back of Deimonโs mind, urging him to claim and protect her.Deimon turned his thoughts to the task at hand. Anna had asked to speak with him urgently, hinting she had information about Kateโs tormentors. He didnโt trust Anna completely, but she had proven herself a valuable ally. Her intelligence network within the Academy was unparalleled.A knock on the door brought him back to the present. Turni

As the days passed, Anna continued her investigation into the Crescent Order. She occasionally updated Deimon and the others on her progress, though the information was still limited. One evening, she came to them with a particularly intriguing lead.โIโve spoken with a few contacts,โ Anna said, her eyes sparkling with excitement. โThereโs a rumor that the artifact theyโre after is an ancient relic known as the Lunaโs Tear. Itโs said to grant immense power to whoever possesses it.โKillian frowned. โWhat kind of power?โAnna shrugged. โThe legends are vague, but itโs believed to enhance the abilities of its holder, making them nearly invincible. If the Crescent Order gets their hands on it, they could dominate all the werewolf packs.โKate looked at Deimon, her face set with determination. โWe canโt let that happen.โโWe wonโt,โ Deimon said firmly. โBut we need more information. Keep digging, Anna. We need to know exactly what weโre dealing with.โAnna nodded, her determination clear.

The news spread like wildfire throughout Umbra Academy. Gandal, the future Alpha of the Norse Pack, had issued a challenge to Deimon, seeking to test his strength and authority. Jealousy and ambition had driven Gandal to this point, and now the entire Academy was abuzz with anticipation.Deimon stood in the training room, his thoughts racing as he prepared for the duel. Kate and their allies were gathered around, their support a steady source of strength.โAre you sure about this?โ Kate asked, her voice laced with concern. โGandal is known for being ruthless.โDeimon nodded, meeting her worried gaze. โI have to do this. Itโs not just about me; itโs about proving our strength and leadership. If I back down now, itโll send the wrong message.โKate sighed, her eyes filled with a mix of fear and determination. โJust be careful. I canโt bear the thought of losing you.โDeimon reached out, cupping her face in his hands. โI promise, Iโll be careful. And Iโll win.โKillian clapped a hand on D

"We canโt trust them anymore," one of the dissenters was saying. "This alliance is going to destroy us. We need to take control before itโs too late.""And what about Kate?" another voice asked. "Sheโs the key to all this. If we take her out, Deimon will crumble."Kateโs breath caught in her throat. The betrayal was more profound than she had imagined. But before she could process it further, Deimon stepped forward, revealing himself to the group."What do you think youโre doing?" he demanded, his voice low and dangerous.The dissenters froze, their eyes wide with shock. But it was the figure at the center of the group that caught Kateโs attentionโthe one she had seen in her vision. It was Garrick, the wolf who had voiced his doubts earlier that day."Garrick," Deimon said, his voice filled with disbelief and anger. "How could you?"Garrick met his gaze, unrepentant. "This is bigger than you, Deimon. Bigger than any of us. The packโs survival is at stake. Youโre too blinded by your lo

โTheyโve resurfaced,โ Anna continued, her voice tight with urgency. โAnd theyโve teamed up with the rival Alpha. Theyโre after the Lunaโs Tear, yes, but thatโs not all. They need you, Kate.โโMe?โ Kateโs voice was barely above a whisper.Anna nodded, her gaze softening with sympathy. โYour bloodline, Kate. It traces back to the first Luna, the one who originally wielded the Lunaโs Tear. Itโs said that only her descendants can fully unlock its power. They need you to gain that power.โDeimonโs grip on the edge of the table tightened, his knuckles turning white. โSo this isnโt just about uniting the packs. They want to use Kate as a weapon.โโExactly,โ Anna confirmed. โThey believe that with the Lunaโs Tear and Kate, they can control not just the packs, but the entire supernatural world. Theyโll stop at nothing to get what they want.โA heavy silence fell over the room as the weight of Annaโs words settled in. Kate felt a storm of emotions swirling within herโfear, anger, a deep sense o

Kate stirred awake, the first light of dawn filtering through the heavy curtains of their bedroom. She felt the warmth of Deimonโs body beside her, his arm draped protectively over her waist. For a moment, she allowed herself to stay still, savoring the peacefulness of the morning, a rare moment of calm before the chaos of the day would begin.As if sensing her thoughts, Deimon tightened his hold on her, pulling her closer. "Good morning," he murmured, his voice still heavy with sleep.Kate turned in his arms to face him, her heart fluttering at the sight of his familiar features, softened by the early light. "Morning," she whispered back, her lips curving into a small smile. "Did you sleep well?"He brushed a strand of hair from her face, his fingers lingering on her cheek. "With you by my side? Always."She laughed softly, a sound that seemed to lighten the air between them. "You always know just what to say.""Itโs the truth," he replied, his voice serious now. "Every day with you

The dawn of a new day bathed the Academy grounds in a soft, golden light. Kate stood in the clearing, feeling the energy of the Lunaโs Tear coursing through her, amplifying her newfound powers. Deimon stood beside her, his presence a comforting anchor.โAlright, Kate,โ he said, his voice steady and encouraging. โLetโs see what you can do.โKate closed her eyes and focused, letting the energy flow through her. She felt the air around her shift, responding to her will. With a flick of her wrist, she manipulated the light and shadows, creating intricate patterns in the air. Deimon watched with awe and pride, and Kate could feel his support bolstering her confidence.โYouโre getting better every day,โ he said, smiling.โThanks to you,โ she replied, meeting his gaze. โYour belief in me makes all the difference.โTheir training sessions had become a daily routine, drawing the attention of others at the Academy. Whispers of Kateโs abilities spread, and soon, instructors and students alike be

Kate sat cross-legged on her bed, the old leather-bound journal resting on her lap. The faded gold lettering on the cover read โErica,โ her motherโs name. Her fingers traced the letters as she took a deep breath, feeling a strange mix of excitement and trepidation. This journal held the secrets of her familyโs past, secrets that could change everything she knew about herself.Deimon entered the room, his presence steady and reassuring. He noticed the journal and sat beside her, placing a comforting hand on her shoulder. โAre you ready?โ he asked softly.Kate nodded, her resolve firm. โYes. Letโs find out what my mother had to say.โOpening the journal, she began to read aloud. The first entries were mundane, detailing everyday life, but as she turned the pages, the tone shifted. Her motherโs words grew more urgent, more desperate.***July 10, 1995Iโve kept this secret for so long, hidden from everyone, even my own family. The connection to the Umbra Pack is deeper than anyone knows.
