Elijah

Many exchanged glances at my words, and then Nalia appeared, looking serious and defiant.

“If you don’t agree, you can turn back and find another place to take shelter. The Blood Moon Pack has rules, and if you want to take shelter here, you must follow those rules,” she said without hesitation. “Keep order, and if you decide to leave, don’t worry, you’ll be escorted to the western border of the territory.”

A wave of whispers began among the refugees.

  • Protected by the Dark Alpha   Epilogue – Part I

    EloiseYears later…Emmett hated ceremonial robes.That was the first thing he said the morning he was to officially become the Alpha of Steel Fangs.He didn’t say he was nervous or that he wasn’t ready; he just got caught up in the robes while ignoring the fact that he wished our father were there with him. That’s how I knew he was just trying to hide his nerves.And I smiled because Emmett wasn’t the same boy he used to be.He had become an adult—tall, handsome, with our mother’s green eyes and our father’s proud bearing. Everything about him screamed authority, and I held back my mockery as he stood in front of a mirror with an expression of utter indignation while Hann tried to adjust the steel clasp on his shoulder.“This is too heavy,” Emmett said.Hann, with more gray hair than years ago and a patience forged in the

    EloiseIt turned out to be a false alarm, but hours later, the next day, Elian was born, and the ancient forest blossomed.It wasn’t just a poetic way of putting it—it truly blossomed.I woke up before dawn with a deep pain, unlike anything I’d ever felt. For a few seconds, I lay still, confused, with one hand on my belly. Then another contraction came, stronger, and I understood what it meant.“Elijah,” I said hurriedly.My mate woke up immediately.He didn’t open his eyes slowly or ask what was happening; he was simply awake, alert, with Gref under his skin.“Is it the baby?” he asked right away.“Yes,” I said in a hoarse voice.His face changed.Panic, joy, terror, and devotion played across his face in a matter of seconds. Then, an extraordinary mix of it all.“Elijah,” I said with da

    EloisePeace did not arrive like a burst of light.It arrived slowly.It came with weary hands rebuilding roofs, with guards repairing fences, with children running through the square again without fearfully glancing toward the forest. It came with merchants traveling along roads that had once been closed, with official letters sealed with fresh ink, with overly proud Alfas learning to sit at the same table without turning every disagreement into a territorial war.It also came with silences.With names spoken in hushed tones and with white flowers on fresh graves.With people waking in the middle of the night, believing they heard the screams of Hall and his men once more.But it came, and that, after all, was a miracle.Blood Moon changed in the months following Hall’s fall and the restoration of the Shadow Forest. Not abruptly, but as a land changes after a harsh winter: first a crack in the snow, then a timid leaf, then green spreading with the patience of one who knows they have

    EloiseThe official Blood Moon ceremony didn’t begin when I put on the dress.It began weeks earlier, when a girl from the pack stopped me at the market with a basket of night-blooming flowers and told me, with the gravity of an old woman trapped in an eight-year-old’s body, that a Luna couldn’t be officially named without wearing something that had grown under the gaze of the Matterhorn.“It’s tradition,” she said.I looked at Isa, who was standing beside me feigning innocence.“Is it?” I asked cautiously.“It is now,” Isa replied with a smile.The girl handed me the flowers.They were white and small, with a pearly sheen. They had bloomed near the shadowy forest after the restoration. People called them "rest flowers" because they only opened when the fog descended quietly, without hunger.I accepted the flowers as if they were a crown.“Thank you,” I said.The girl looked at me with pride.“You’re already a great Luna,” the girl said before leaving.I didn’t know how to respond.On

    EloiseEmmett held out his hand, and Hann took it.A brief mark, the color of steel in the moonlight, appeared on both their wrists, a reminder of who was in charge of the pack and what that truly meant.That mark was striking, and the fact that no one challenged it made everything much simpler, yet at the same time much more complex.Claris breathed as if she could finally let go of a weight, then did something that completely surprised me.“Then I’ll start with him,” she said.We all looked at her, but I didn’t see surprise in her eyes; I saw seriousness, then I looked at Joe. He had eyes only for her, so I knew he would do whatever she decided, and that calmed me.My friend straightened up, though Joe tensed beside her, not out of fear but because of what that step meant for his mate.“I know the internal networks Hall used,” C

    EloiseReturning to Steel Fangs was like stepping into a memory that someone had set on fire and then tried to piece back together with trembling hands.It took three weeks before Temra, Grace, and Larys accepted that I could travel without everyone around me freaking out. Elijah had followed the doctor’s orders with a strictness that bordered on the dictatorial. He made me drink concoctions, take naps, eat at exact times, and avoid long meetings.I put up with it because nearly dying had consequences.Also because, every time I tried to argue, Elijah would look at me with those gray eyes that still seemed surprised to see me breathing, and my resolve would crumble like a tower of wet cards.It wasn’t easy for him to recover either.Without his shadows, Elijah had to learn to move within himself again. Not physically, because his body was still strong, his aura still commanded

    EloiseI took a quick shower in the academy bathrooms and then went to the office.Kaia lovingly cradled her baby and sang him a lullaby so he would finally fall asleep. I didn't say anything to her; I just sat down at the table, took notes, and reviewed the most reliable accounting programs.“Are

    EloiseSigning the documents wasn't difficult.In fact, it was very easy to do, but something in the office atmosphere had changed. I didn't know exactly what it was, but I could feel it clearly.After that, Kaia arrived.She resembled Kael; they had the same dark eyes, striking height, and the sam

    Eloise“Can someone tell me what's so funny?” I asked cautiously. “I'm sorry I ruined the exam. I—”The Alpha approached me and gently took me by the elbow.“Come on, I'll explain in the office. Let's not bother Keren anymore.”I frowned and walked quickly with him, but the rest of the guards conti

    EloiseAfter dinner with the Alpha, I cleared the dishes and quickly went to my room.If the Alpha noticed my uneasiness, he didn't say anything; he just said goodbye in a friendly manner and left me alone with my intrusive thoughts. Alondra was totally amused, as if she found the situation very fu
