Viola David As the last wisps of smoke dissolved into the evening air, Thane's world was forever changed. The funeral pyre that had consumed his brother's body had also ignited a firestorm of uncertainty within him. With Alpha Ryker's sudden and mysterious death, the mantle of leadership had fallen to Thane, a man who had never aspired to rule. Standing at the water's edge, the weight of his new responsibilities threatens to engulf him. The prophecy of the Promised Child that had once been a distant concern, now looms large, its demands and expectations hanging precariously in the balance. Would Thane be able to rise to the challenge, or would the legacy of his brother's rule be reduced to ashes?

THE PROMISED SAVIOUR Chapter 136 - Born to Save
The days following the battle passed in a blur of heat and quiet. Summer had settled over the realm like a warm blanket, heavy with the scent of pine and wildflowers, and the skies above Lunarville were a steady blue, unmarred by storm or shadow. But for Kael, the stillness outside was a stark contrast to the whirlwind within.Thane had taken him alongside his mother, Dr. Ganner and Angela to the Alphahold where physicians came daily to attend to them. The fields had quieted and the scent of blood was slowly fading from the wind, but Kael scarcely payed any attention to the outside world, not even to ask what would become of Justine. He didn’t want to know. He reasoned that it was best to allow the Alphas who had lost brothers and sisters in the senseless war be the ones to decide his fate alongside those of the other prisoners. The Alphas would know how best to pass judgment on the man who had deceived the world and tried to slaughter an entire race based on a lie.For Kael, Justine

Kael held on to Lylah as though his arms alone could protect her from the terrors that had come before. He sat cross-legged on the cold floor of the tent, rocking her gently, his cheek pressed to her temple. His voice trembled as he spoke, soft and repetitive, murmuring the same reassurances over and over again."I'm here, mom. I'm so sorry. You're safe now, I promise. Everything will be alright. You're safe."Lylah's arms barely moved, but her head rested against his chest, her breathing slow and uneven. Her skin was pale, her eyelids drooped with exhaustion and the weight of the drugs still clinging to her system, but there was a flicker of awareness returning to her gaze.Angela, meanwhile, had turned away the moment she saw Kael take Lylah in his arms. Her eyes found the other figure slumped in the corner. “Uncle Peter!” she gasped, rushing to him.Dr. Ganner looked up, dazed but coherent, his face shadowed by fatigue and drug-induced stupor. Angela dropped to her knees beside him
THE PROMISED SAVIOUR Chapter 134 - The Turning Point
Kael staggered back a step, as if struck. His breath came in sharp, broken shudders. All the stories, the warnings, the quiet grief Justine had weaponized over the years—the tales about the savage beasts who tore his life apart, the man’s encouragements and determination as he took samples of his blood to develop the deadly weapon, all the while telling him that he's a special child and their mission was a necessary one for the survival of human beings—crumbled into ash before his eyes.“You let your wife die…” Kael murmured, his voice shaking with emotion. “She didn’t die for you. She died because of you.”Justine’s grip on Angela faltered for a fraction of a second. The blade at her throat trembled. “It wasn’t like that—” he barked, wild-eyed now. “She chose to stand by me. She knew the risks. She—she understood!”But the room wasn’t listening anymore. Not to him.The Alphas stood in grim silence, their gazes hard as granite. Angela’s eyes were wide, shimmering with unshed tears. An

Inside the command tent, tension rippled like a taut wire, waiting to snap.Alpha Walter took a deliberate step forward, his eyes fixed solely on Justine—as if no one else existed in the room. Justine responded without missing a beat, shifting his grip on Angela and dragging her in front of him, the blade still pressed to her throat like a silent warning."You," Alpha Walter repeated, his voice low but thunderous with accusation.Thane, now standing shoulder to shoulder with the other Alphas, turned his head. “Do you know him?”“Know him?” Alpha Walter scoffed, his voice dripping with disgust. “Of course I know him. Surely he's put on a bit of weight over the years and changed his hairstyle, but that doesn't change what I know of him. The man’s a thief. A coward.”The air grew dense, thicker with every heartbeat. The other Alphas stilled. Justine’s expression remained neutral, but Kael saw the shift in his eyes—a flash of unease, quickly masked.Straightening, Kael stepped forward. “U

Screams tore through the air like a thousand jagged knives. Outside the command tent, the ground thundered with a new rhythm—hundreds of pounding feet, snarls echoing through the forest’s veil. The shriek of gunshots met the howls of beasts as the world outside turned to blood and smoke.The werewolves came from every direction, spilling into the camp like a living flood. Some bounded on all fours in monstrous wolf form, fangs glinting and eyes alight with primal fury. Others, still in human shape, loosed arrows from sleek recurved bows, each shot finding its mark with lethal precision. Others still wore gauntlets bristling with claws or wielded curved blades that danced with a deadly grace. They struck with purpose, cutting down the stunned JANEERAD agents who scrambled for their weapons, their panic betraying their unreadiness.A soldier stumbled backward, firing blindly, only to be seized from behind by a dark-haired warrior who rammed a gauntlet into his side and drove him into th

Kael took a slow, deliberate step back toward the center of the tent, his boots brushing against the dirt-smeared canvas. The air was thick with tension, so sharp it could slice flesh. Outside, the world was still, save for the distant bark of a command or the faint scrape of metal. Inside, the silence was more volatile than sound.He stood upright, spine rigid, eyes fixed on Justine. Calm on the outside, but within, a storm churned with fury and disbelief. His hands, curled into tight fists, trembled faintly at his sides.“So this is what it’s come to?” Kael’s voice was low, even, but each word struck with force. “You’re using your soldiers—your dogs—against me?”Justine didn’t flinch. His eyes narrowed, the lines of age and ambition deepening across his face. “It doesn’t have to be this way,” he said coolly, though a muscle twitched in his jaw. “You’re letting emotions cloud your judgment. Don’t forget who you are. Don’t forget your place.” He took a step forward, gesturing to the s
