The morning after Lyla's trial, the air was crisp, the kind of cool that kissed her skin but hinted at a lurking chill. Sunlight streamed through the canopy of Silverwood, painting golden patterns on the ground as she trudged toward the pack’s central gathering point. Every step reminded her of the sleepless night she’d endured. Yet, despite the exhaustion, she felt alive more so than she had in years.

Her trial in the forest wasn’t just a test of survival; it had awoken something in her. Something that called out to the strange, ancient energy of Silverwood. But whatever that connection was, it remained elusive, like a word on the tip of her tongue.

When she arrived at the clearing, Eli was already waiting. Dressed in a loose hoodie and jeans, he stood near the fire pit, staring into the embers as if the answer to some unspoken question lay within them.

“You’re late,” he said without looking up.

“I’m tired,” she shot back, dropping onto one of the wooden benches that circled the fire

  • Moonbound: The Rise Of The Alpha   Chapter 130: The Whisper in the Dark

    The forest wasn't empty.Lyla felt it before she saw it.Something old.Something unseen.Watching.Waiting.The whisper that had curled through the trees wasn’t the wind.It was something else.And it had spoken to her."This is just the beginning, Guardian."Her blood ran cold.Because whatever it wasIt knew who she was.Eli stepped beside her."You heard it too," he murmured.Not a question.A fact.Dani’s hands hovered over her daggers. "What the hell was that?"Mason scanned the trees, muscles coiled. "Nothing good."Jonas shifted uneasily. "We need to move. Standing here isn’t"The wind shifted.The whisper came again."You reforged the bond, but do you even know what you awoke?"Lyla’s pulse spiked.This thing whatever it wasIt wasn’t just watching.It was testing her.Eli’s breath was slow. Measured."We’re not alone."And Lyla knewThey never had been.The trees moved without moving.The shadows shifted without light.The presence was everywhere.Nowhere.Something half-the

  • Moonbound: The Rise Of The Alpha   Chapter 129: The Weight of Leadership

    The journey back to Silverwood was silent.Not from exhaustion.Not from fear.But from realization.Lyla had stepped into the unknown.Had faced a truth no Guardian before her had known.The bond wasn’t just hers.It had existed long before her war.And now, for the first time, she felt its true weight.Not just a connection.Not just a power.A responsibility.One that had destroyed the first Guardian.And if she wasn’t carefulIt could destroy her too.Mason was the first to speak."Alright," he muttered. "I’m just gonna say what we’re all thinking."Lyla glanced at him.He frowned. "Are we really just gonna walk away from that? From them?"Jonas exhaled sharply. "What do you suggest? We fight them?"Mason ran a hand through his hair."No," he admitted. "But I don’t like it. They’re out there. They’re watching. And if they ever decide they don’t like what Lyla’s doing"He didn’t finish.He didn’t have to.They all knew what he meant.Dani sighed. "We have bigger things to focus on

  • Moonbound: The Rise Of The Alpha   Chapter 128: The Trial of the Guardian

    The bond hummed.The forest watched.And Lyla stepped forward to face the trial.Kieran stood across from her, his expression unreadable.His wolves had formed a circle, closing them in.This wasn’t just a fight.It was a test of power.A test of control.And Lyla knewIf she failed here, she wouldn’t just lose their respect.She would lose everything.Kieran lifted his chin."The Guardian must be tested," he said. "It has always been this way."Mason scoffed. "You mean, you don’t trust her."Kieran didn’t look at him."This isn’t about trust," he said. "This is about balance."Jonas frowned. "And how does beating each other senseless prove that?"Kieran finally smiled."It doesn’t," he admitted. "But power must be measured. And power without control"His eyes darkened."leads to ruin."Lyla’s stomach tightened.Because she knew what he was talking about.Aleron.The first Guardian.The first betrayal.Kieran’s wolves stood in silence, waiting for her answer.The trial wasn’t just abo

  • Moonbound: The Rise Of The Alpha   Chapter 127: The Lost History

    Lyla had thought she understood the bond.Had thought she knew its origin.But nowAs she stood face to face with a pack that should not existShe realized she had only ever known part of the truth.The man in front of her watched her closely.Waiting.Testing.His pack moved behind him like shadows, their eyes sharp, their postures unreadable.They weren’t scared of her.They weren’t impressed by her.And that alone sent a chill down her spine.Because she was the Guardian.She had reforged the bond.And yet, to themShe was nothing.The man finally spoke."My name is Kieran," he said.His voice was steady.Measured.Like he was used to commanding.Like he had done this before.Lyla squared her shoulders."You're the Alpha," she said.It wasn’t a question.Kieran’s lips twitched in something that wasn’t quite a smile."Of this pack?" he asked. "Yes. But we are not like your wolves."Lyla’s fingers twitched.Eli shifted beside her, his stance wary.Dani’s hand hovered near her blade.

  • Moonbound: The Rise Of The Alpha   Chapter 126: The Balance of Power

    The sun rose over Silverwood.Not red.Not broken.But whole.The Bloodmoon’s shadow had passed, leaving the world quieter. Stronger.For the first time in generationsThe town and the wolves existed side by side.But peace was never simple.And power never settled easily.Lyla stood at the edge of Silverwood, watching the morning unfold.The town was awake now.People walked the streets, glancing at the wolves with wary curiosity.They didn’t run.Didn’t hide.But they weren’t comfortable yet.And Lyla knew why.This was new.Wolves had never lived among humans before.They had existed in the shadows, unseen and untouchable.Now, there were no shadows to hide in.And not everyone was ready for that.Mason stepped beside her, arms crossed."They’re watching us," he muttered.Lyla didn’t look away from the town."Let them."Mason huffed. "Feels like they’re waiting for us to mess up.""They are," she said.Because power shifts were never easy.And some peopleSome wolvesWould rather s

  • Moonbound: The Rise Of The Alpha   Chapter 125: A New Era Begins

    The howl faded.The forest listened.And for the first time in generationsIt did not resist.No tension.No rejection.Just acceptance.The bond had changed.The packs had changed.And Lyla stood at the center of it all.The first Alpha of the United Pack.When Lyla shifted back, the pack was still watching her.Some with awe.Some with hesitation.Some like Mason still processing.But none of them defied her.None of them challenged what had happened.Because they had felt it too.The bond was whole.The war was over.And nowIt was time to rebuild.Eli was the first to step forward.His silver eyes met hers."We follow you now," he said.A statement.A promise.The others echoed his words.One by one.Until every voice had spoken.Lyla swallowed.The weight of it all settled onto her shoulders.Not fear.Not doubt.But responsibility.This was real.She exhaled."Then we move forward," she said.And the pack listened.There was still work to do.Wolves who needed healing.Homes tha
