AUREN'S POV

"The Alpha has called every household."

I set down the folded cloths.

"Now?"

Maelis nodded.

"Yes, Now."

She opened the door, I followed.

The paths leading to the central square were already packed. Warriors walked beside their families. Children held their parent's hands, nobody spoke above a whisper.

Whatever this was about, everyone felt it, we reached the square.

Almost the entire pack was already there, warriors stood in neat rows closest to the platform. Healers behind them, hu

    "Alpha... you haven't touched your breakfast."I looked up from the plate. The servant stood beside the table, her hands folded, her eyes lowered."I'm not hungry.""Shall I bring something else? Perhaps—""No." I raised my hands.She nodded immediately and began clearing the dishes.I watched her hands move swiftly across the table.I pushed my chair back and stood.The dining hall stretched before me,empty and silent. Morning light streamed through the windows, catching dust particles floating in the air.I used to love this room.Morning meals filled with laughter, warriors sharing stories, servants moving between tables with steaming platters.Now it was just an empty room. I walked toward the corridor.Servants flattened against the walls as I passed, conversations stopped, eyes dropped.Something about that made my heart pound.***Cassien opened the chambers door and I walked in.Selene was already seated.Her hand and gaze rested on her growing belly. She stroked it gently, bac

    I looked down at my palms. The cuts had closed completely. No trace of them remained.Then came a knock on my door, pulling me back to my feet. I quickly shoved my hands behind my back."Come in." My voice cracked.The door creaked open, and the mother of the girl from last night stood outside.She stepped into the room with tears in her eyes. Before I could speak, she dropped to her knees."Thank you." Her voice shook."I don't know who you are or where you came from—""Please—" I leaned forward."—but you saved my daughter. You saved my baby."I reached for her arm. "Get up. Please, get up."She let me pull her to her feet. Her husband appeared beside her, his face still pale. He didn't speak. He simply placed a hand on my shoulder and nodded with a grateful smile."Thanks be to the Moon Goddess for showing Asher mercy."I smiled and pulled Asher's mother into a hug.The afternoon passed in a blur.Word spread through Emberfall faster than I expected. By the time the sun began dippi

    "Make way!" Maelis shouted as she pushed through the crowd.I followed close behind her, my heart slamming against my ribs.Warriors parted for us. Families stepped aside, the training grounds opened before us, and I saw a small body on the ground.A girl, she looked eight. Her face had turned a sickly gray, and her lips were already tinged with blue. She convulsed once, twice, then went still."No, no, no—" A woman broke through the crowd, her face twisted with terror. "That's my daughter! Please that's my—"A warrior caught her before she could reach the child."Let me through!" The woman fought against his arms. "Let me—""The healers are here." The warrior's voice was firm but gentle. "Let them work."Three healers knelt around the girl. One pressed her fingers against the child's neck, checking for a pulse. Another lifted the girl's leg, exposing a small puncture wound on her ankle—two tiny red marks surrounded by harsh purple swelling."Viper bite." The healer's voice shook. "Sh

Children held their parent's hands, nobody spoke above a whisper.Whatever this was about, everyone felt it, we reached the square.Almost the entire pack was already there, warriors stood in neat rows closest to the platform. Healers behind them, hunters on the eastern side. Families spread across the open space, children lifted onto shoulders.Everyone waited, a horn echoed across the pack.Conversation died.The warriors struck their fists against their chests, elders stepped onto the platform first.Then, Ronan appeared. Every head bowed.He stood with his hands behind his back, waiting until the square became completely still. I stayed near the back."People of Emberfall."His voice carried easily."I called you here because something

    AUREN'S POV"Eat something."Maelis slid a wooden bowl toward me before sitting across from me."I am not hungry.""You don't have to be, you would need the energy for your training."She picked up her spoon without looking at me."Go on."I picked up my spoon and my gaze moved round the dining hall, it buzzed with quiet conversations.Warriors filled the long tables after morning patrol. Hunters laughed over something that had happened before sunrise, a group of young wolves argued over who had finished training first.Yesterday, I would have smiled listening to them.Today...The moment I stepped inside, the room had gone quiet.I wrapped both hands around the warm bowl, steam curled into my face.My stomach twisted, a few warriors entered carrying fresh bread, one of them looked toward our table.He started walking over, his friend caught his arm, they exchanged a glance.Then both of them turned toward another table instead, the empty seats around me stayed empty.Maelis pretended

    AUREN'S POV"Seal the eastern trail," Ronan ordered. "Double the patrol on the north ridge. No one goes into the eastern woods alone until I say otherwise.""Yes, Alpha!"The warriors scattered at once, no one questioned him or hesitated.The training grounds that had been filled with laughter only moments ago suddenly became a storm of movement. Wooden staffs were returned to their racks, the swords replaced training weapons. Armor was pulled over sweat-soaked shirts.Maelis rested a hand on my shoulder."Go inside."I looked at the scout still kneeling in the dirt."Shouldn't I help him?""The healers already are."Two women hurried toward the scout with herbs and clean cloth. One pressed a folded bandage against his arm while the other checked the wound on his shoulder.Maelis gently turned me around."Come."I followed her, but I couldn't stop looking back.The horse still trembled, the scout hadn't stopped shaking.Whatever he had seen, it followed him all the way home.***By mi
