The Rejected Luna's Dark Gift Draven's Trial
Two months passed before we held the trial. Two months of healing. Of freed prisoners slowly remembering how to be people. Of wardens learning to live without collars. Of everyone adjusting to a world where Draven was chained instead of controlling.The trial was public. Every pack invited. Every victim given the chance to testify. Every crime detailed for the world to see.They brought Draven in chains. He'd aged in captivity. Lost weight. Lost that aura of invincibility. Now he just looked like what he was. An old wolf who'd hurt too many people for too long.The chamber was packed. Standing room only. Freed prisoners filled the front rows. Their eyes fixed on the monster who'd destroyed them. Some faces showed hate. Some showed fear. Some showed nothing at all.Kira sat beside me. Her hand kept touching her neck. Confirming the collar was gone. That this was real. That Draven was the one in chains now."Are you ready to testify?""No. But I'm doing it anyway." Her voice was steadie
The Rejected Luna's Dark Gift The Long Road Home
The journey back to Shadowcrest took two weeks instead of the planned one. The freed prisoners couldn't travel fast. Years of imprisonment had weakened them. Made long days on horseback impossible. So we moved slow. Stopped often. Let them rest when needed.Kira rode beside Tor most days. Learning from him. Asking questions about how to live without the collar. How to use her gift without the compulsion forcing it. How to be a person instead of a weapon."I don't remember who I was before." Her voice was quiet. "Sixteen feels like a lifetime ago. Do you remember who you were?""Pieces. Fragments. Like looking at someone else's memories through foggy glass." Tor's hand touched his neck habitually. "But I'm building something new. Someone who remembers the past but isn't defined by it.""Is that possible? Building something new after being broken so completely?""I don't know. But I'm trying. That's all any of us can do."Through my gift I felt Kira's fragile hope. Felt her wanting to b
The Rejected Luna's Dark Gift The Surgery
We made camp outside the compound. No one wanted to stay in that place longer than necessary. The freed prisoners huddled by the fire. Uncertain. Lost. Still not believing freedom was real.Thea set up her workspace under torchlight. Laid out tools that looked more like torture implements than medical equipment. Kira sat in the center. Hands steady. Face blank."This will take all night. Maybe longer. You'll be conscious throughout. I need you to tell me if something feels wrong. If the pain becomes too much. If you feel the magic fighting back harder than you can stand.""I've survived five years of the collar. I can survive this.""The collar kept you alive. This might kill you. There's a difference.""I know. I'm choosing anyway."Tor knelt beside her. "I'll be here the whole time. Holding your hand. Reminding you that you're not alone.""Why? You don't know me. Don't owe me anything.""Because I know exactly what you're going through. Because someone held my hand through my surger
The Rejected Luna's Dark Gift The Hollow Girl
Kira stood. Moved toward me. Her collar pulsed brighter with each step. The compulsion radiating from her was overwhelming. Stronger than Draven's had been. Younger. Rawer. Uncontrolled.My shields went up automatically. Blocking the worst of it. But I felt it pushing. Testing. Trying to find cracks."You don't need to do that." My voice stayed calm. "I'm not here to fight you.""Everyone fights eventually. It's just a question of when."She circled me like a predator. Studying. Assessing. Looking for weakness. Her movements were too precise. Too controlled. Like she'd forgotten how to be casual."My name is Dian. I came to offer you freedom.""Freedom." She said it like a foreign word. "That's what they all say before trying to kill me.""Who's they?""Wolves who think removing the collar is mercy. Who think death is better than this." Her hand touched the metal at her throat. "They're wrong. This is better. This is clarity. This is purpose."Through my gift I felt the lie underneath
The Rejected Luna's Dark Gift One Left
Two days of rest. That's all Thea allowed before declaring us fit enough to travel. Tor needed longer but he insisted on coming anyway, his hand constantly touching his bare neck like confirming freedom was real."The last compound is the worst." His voice was rough from disuse. "The warden there is young. Maybe your age. Draven collared her five years ago when she was just sixteen."My stomach dropped. Sixteen. Just a kid when Draven stole her life."What's her name?""Kira. She was gentle before the collar. Wanted to help people." Tor's eyes went distant. "The collar broke that gentleness. Made her cruel because cruelty was easier to survive than feeling what she was forced to do."Through the bond Kael's anger flared. Another child destroyed. Another life stolen. Another reason to be grateful Draven was dead."How many prisoners?""Fifteen. Maybe twenty. Hard to say. The compound has high turnover because Kira..." He stopped. Swallowed. "Because the collar makes her hurt them more
The Rejected Luna's Dark Gift The Oldest Collar
Tor led us inside his compound without guards or weapons or any attempt to fight, led us through corridors that were more depressing than threatening with their crumbling walls and rust-stained floors and the overwhelming sense that this place was dying along with the wolves it held."Thirty prisoners when I started. Twenty-three now. Seven died over the years and Draven never bothered to replace them because this compound wasn't important enough anymore." His voice held no emotion at all, like he'd used up his entire lifetime supply of feelings decades ago. "I'm the oldest warden. The first experiment. The proof of concept that collaring empaths would work.""I'm sorry." The words felt inadequate but I said them anyway. "I'm sorry Draven did this to you.""Why? You didn't collar me. Didn't break me. Didn't spend thirty-five years forcing me to hurt others." He stopped walking and turned to face me. "I did all of that myself. The collar only gave me the excuse.""That's not true. The
The Rejected Luna's Dark Gift Waiting
Two days wasn't enough time. I knew it. Everyone knew it. But we prepared anyway because what else could we do? The pack moved like a hive. Warriors sharpening weapons. Scouts mapping attack routes. Healers stockpiling supplies. Even the kitchen wolves prepared extra rations for fighters. I threw

I couldn't just stand there. Everyone else went back to preparing. Sharpening weapons. Checking armor. Eating breakfast they probably couldn't taste. I went to my cabin and locked the door. Then I sat on the floor and reached for the bond.Thea said not to use my gift. Said I needed to rest. But t

"She's lying."Thea's voice cut through the council room. I'd barely made it back from the cells before being summoned here. My legs still felt shaky, head still pounding, but apparently this couldn't wait.Kieran sat at the head of the table. Rowan on his left. Nola on his right. Zarek stood by th

The war room felt too small with everyone packed inside. Kieran spread maps across the table. Red marks showed where the rogue army was moving. Blue marks showed our defenses. There was way more red than blue. "Two hundred fighters," Zarek said, counting on his fingers. "Against three hundred rogu
