ELARA

We left Helena's cottage before dawn, following the second map toward the abandoned council mountain archive. The morning air was cool, and a thin mist drifted through the pines, hiding the narrow trail ahead. Ronan rode beside me while two Greyhaven scouts moved farther ahead, checking the road for danger.

After everything that had happened over the past few weeks, none of us believed an empty road was truly safe.

The council had turned its attention toward Ronan, my room had been search

  • My Alpha Buried the Wrong Luna   Chapter 126: THE ORDER THEY COULD NOT OBEY

    KAELThe three-day deadline arrived with rain.By sunrise, council riders had gathered outside the House of Aurelis. They remained near the gate without entering, their horses restless beneath the gray sky while families watched from windows and doorways.No one needed to ask why they were there.The deadline had passed.Inside the main hall, Elara stood before the residents with the council order in her hands. Families had gathered around her, waiting for the decision that would determine whether their home remained protected."We are not registering people according to bloodline," she said.A murmur moved through the room."We will provide the council with the names and information required by current law, but we will not place survivors into categories that were created to decide who deserves power."One of the older men stepped forward."What happens if they remove our protection?"Elara looked at him."Then we find another way to protect each other."The answer wasn't loud, but i

  • My Alpha Buried the Wrong Luna   Chapter 125: THE NAME ON THE COUNCIL SEAL

    KAELNoah returned just after sunset.I knew something was wrong before he reached the main hall. His face was pale, and he held a folded document against his chest as though letting go of it might change what was written inside.Elara met him first."What happened?"Noah looked at her, then at me."I found the family Adrian protected."We brought him into the study and closed the door. Ronan and Cassian joined us a few minutes later, and Noah placed the original document on the table."This is the transfer record," he said. "Not a copy. The original."Cassian leaned closer.His expression changed almost immediately."Where did you get this?""From the family Adrian protected."I carefully unfolded the parchment.The writing was faded, but the important sections remained clear. At the center was the record of the authority transfer that had taken place after the Ninth Founder disappeared.Then I reached the final line.The name stopped me.I knew it.Elara moved closer."So do I."Ron

  • My Alpha Buried the Wrong Luna   Chapter 124: THE NAME ADRIAN PROTECTED

    NOAHI left the House of Aurelis before sunrise.I didn't tell many people where I was going. Kael knew, and Elias knew enough to understand why I needed to make the journey alone. The name I had found in Adrian's records had been sitting in my mind all night, along with the words my father had written beside it.Protected. Still alive.The location led me beyond the main roads and into a quiet farming settlement nearly a day's journey from Blackridge. There were no council buildings there, no large estates, and no family banners hanging above the houses.It was the kind of place people passed without noticing.I found the address just before midday.An elderly woman answered the door.She looked at me carefully before opening it wider."You're Adrian's son."I stopped."How did you know?"She gave a small smile."Your father said you would come one day."My chest tightened."You knew him?""He came here several times."She stepped aside."My name is Mara."I followed her inside.The

  • My Alpha Buried the Wrong Luna   Chapter 123: THE HOUSE MUST CHOOSE

    ELARAThe council order arrived just after sunrise.I was in the courtyard helping arrange rooms for two families who had arrived during the night when a rider entered through the main gate. He carried the black-and-silver seal of the current council, and the moment I saw it, I knew the message would not be simple.He handed me the folded parchment.I broke the seal and read the first paragraph.Then I read it again.The council required every resident of the House of Aurelis to be registered according to bloodline classification.The categories were listed beneath the order.Founder blood.Recognized blood.Protected blood.Unregistered blood.My stomach tightened.These were the same kinds of divisions that had allowed powerful families to decide who deserved authority and who did not. Now the council wanted to bring those categories into the House.Ronan read over my shoulder."This can't be right.""It is an official order."He looked toward the families working in the courtyard.

  • My Alpha Buried the Wrong Luna   Chapter 122: THE MAN WHO BENEFITED

    KAELThe first thing I noticed about House Valen was how little they looked like people preparing to seize power.Their estate stood on the eastern side of Blackridge, surrounded by old trees and low stone walls. There were no armed guards at the entrance beyond the usual protection expected of a wealthy family, and no banners calling attention to their recent political success.Yet their influence had grown quickly.Since the old succession law had been activated, House Valen had gained authority over two territories, secured a stronger position in the council, and become the leading voice in several succession disputes.I had come to find out why.Lord Adrian Valen received me in a private study. He was older than I expected, with silver beginning to show in his dark hair. His daughter, Mara, sat beside him, and both looked cautious when I entered."I assume this concerns the succession law," Adrian said."It does."He gestured toward the chair opposite him."Then you should know we

  • My Alpha Buried the Wrong Luna   Chapter 121: THE SON WHO CHOSE DIFFERENTLY

    NOAHI found the letter tucked between two pages of Adrian's journal.At first, I thought it was another travel note. My father had left dozens of them behind, most written in a hurry, with places, names, and brief reminders squeezed into the margins.This one was different.It carried an old council seal.I read it once, then again, because the meaning seemed impossible.The letter offered Adrian a position within the ruling council. More than that, it offered him authority over several territories and recognized him as a legitimate successor to an old branch of leadership.He had refused.There was no long explanation. Adrian had simply written that accepting the position would give him power he did not believe one person should hold.I stared at the words for a long time.My father could have been important.He could have claimed a title, gathered supporters, and built a family around his authority.Instead, he walked away.I carried the letter to Elias.He read it quietly before p
