CHAPTER 17 NIGHT TRAINING

ELRIC’S POV

I tried to sleep but sleep refuses to come.

I turn on the bed for the third time, staring at the ceiling like it might give answers. My wolf is restless, pacing, scratching, alert. Ever since today, something feels off.

I finally give up.

The training room lights are dim when I step in. At first, I think I’m alone. Then I hear it. A soft grunt. A shuffle of feet. Controlled breathing.

Mira.

She’s in the middle of the room, hair tied back, sleeves rolled, sweat shining on her skin. She repeats the same move again and again, turn, step, strike, miss and reset.

She doesn’t see me.

I lean against the wall, watching her carefully.

She messes up the angle again. Her shoulders tense in frustration. She mutters something under her breath I can’t catch. Then she goes again.

My chest tightens.

Three days. She’s pushing herself like she has none.

I walk closer, slow, quiet. She spins suddenly, blade coming up fast. I catch her wrist easily.

“Careful,” I say.

    CHAPTER 25 THE COUNCIL ARRIVESMIRA’S P.O.VThe main hall feels smaller the moment they walk in.Five of them.The air shifts like something heavy just settled on my chest. My fingers curl without me meaning to and Alpha Theron notices immediately. He steps half a pace closer, not touching me but close enough that I could feel his real protection.Elric is standing on the other side quietly and tense. His jaw is tight like he is already bracing for a fight.The man in front smiles. His smile is sharp like a blunt but sharp blade.“So this is the Moonborn who’s been causing such trouble,” he says.His eyes rake over me slowly. Not curious. Measuring.I lift my chin. My heart is beating fast but I don’t look away.Alpha Theron’s voice cuts in calm but solid. “Mira is a member of Shadowfang. She is under my protection. Any judgment must be fair and based on evidence not fear.”The man’s smile deepens. “Of course Alpha Theron. That’s why we are here. To investigate.”His words sound clean

    CHAPTER 24 MOTHERS WARNINGMIRA'S P.O.VI stare at her like she’s a ghost that learned how to breathe again.My mother.Standing in front of me like she didn’t hand me over to hell and walk away.My fingers curl. My chest burns. I want to scream. I want to hit something. I want to ask her why she let me believe I was unwanted.“You don’t get to say my name,” I say quietly. My voice shakes anyway.Kira flinches. Her eyes are red. “I know,” she whispers. “I know I don’t deserve it.”Elric’s hand comes to my shoulder firm warm grounding. It keeps me from shaking apart.Alpha Theron’s voice cuts through the tension. “You came here with a warning. Speak.”Kira nods fast like she’s afraid the moment will disappear. “Rael went to the Council of Ancients. He told them a Moonborn has risen and that she’s unstable. He painted her as a threat to every pack.”My stomach drops.“The Council doesn’t debate,” she continues. “They judge and execute. If they decide she’s dangerous they’ll order her de

    CHAPTER 23 SILVER FIREMIRAI don’t know how I got here.One moment I was drowning in darkness in Shadowfang hearing voices far away and the next my feet hit cold forest ground.My chest burns.My head rings.But I feel him.Elric.Fear pulls me forward like a rope tied to my bones.The massive rogue roars and charges at me. The sound rattles my teeth. I raise my hands without thinking. Something answers.Silver fire explodes from my palms.It’s not heat like normal fire. It hums. It sings. It feels alive.The flames slam into the rogue and form a wall between us. He howls and stumbles back fur burning eyes wild.I gasp. My knees shake.“What am I doing,” I whisper.The rogue snarls but doesn’t cross the fire. He backs away wounded furious.My vision spins.Strong arms catch me.“You’re insane,” Elric snaps voice shaking as he pulls me close. “You should be in bed.”I laugh weak and grip his shirt. “Couldn’t let you die for me.”My hands tremble. The silver fades. My body feels too li

    CHAPTER 22 FORBIDDEN FOREST ELRIC I know it the moment the circle tightens. This was never about the flower. The rogues move in slow measured steps not rushing not panicking. Too clean. Too ready. Rael knew. Joseph’s back presses against mine. I feel his breath fast but steady. “There’s too many,” he mutters. “At least twenty,” I reply jaw tight. The rogue leader steps forward hands clasped behind his back like he owns the forest. “Smart alpha,” he says calmly. “Rael said you’d come yourself.” My wolf snarls. “Where’s the Lunar Blossom.” He chuckles. “Safe. For now.” Joseph spits on the ground. “Say what you really want.” The leader’s eyes flicker with interest. “The Moonborn girl. Give her to us and you both walk away.” I laugh dark. “Over my dead body.” He smiles wider. “That can be arranged.” He drops his hand. They attack. Steel rings. Wolves roar. Teeth flash in the dark. I move without thinking blade slicing shoulder ducking claws kicking ribs. Joseph fights l

    CHAPTER 21 THE ANTIDOTEELRIC'S P.O.V“She’s fading.”The healer’s words hit harder than any blow I’ve ever taken in my life. Mira lies still on the bed, her skin looks pale and her breath shallow like she might forget how to breathe in.“What do you need,” I ask, already knowing I’ll do anything.The healer rubs his hands together, nerves showing. “Lunar Blossom. Fresh. Ground and mixed before sunrise.”There was a long Silence.Alpha Theron straightens. “That flower grows only in the Forbidden Forest.”“I know,” I say.“That land sits between us and Ashback,” Theron continues. “ There are rogues, old traps and things that don’t die easily.”I’m already turning away. “Then I should’ve left sooner.”Theron grabs my arm. “You don’t go alone.”“She won’t last if we waste time arguing,” I snap, then soften just a bit. “She’s worth it.”Joseph steps forward with the sword already on his back. “I’m going.”Theron exhales slowly. “Okay, the two of you should go then and be careful.”Elara m

    CHAPTER 20 THE FINAL FIGHTMIRA'S P.O.VThe antidote burns down my throat as i was fed the antidote. The healer grips my chin forcing me to swallow the antidote.“This will hold you for thirty minutes,” he says tight. “After that I can’t promise anything.”Elric shakes his head. “She’s not going back out there.”I push his hand away and sit up too fast. The room tilts but I stay upright.“I am,” I say. My voice sounds thin but it’s mine. “I didn’t survive all this to stop now.”Elara grabs my arm. “Mira please.”I look at her and she sees it. The decision already made.“If I don’t finish this,” I say quietly, “they win.”Elric’s jaw tightens. He crouches in front of me his eyes dark.“If you collapse out there and I swear,” he starts.I cut him off. “Then don’t let me.”The horn sounds outside calling the next fight.I stand up but my legs shake.The arena goes quiet when I step back in.There was whispers among the audience.“She should be dead.”“That’s the poisoned girl.”Even Love
