I decide to train solo afterwards, not wanting to be around any of the Raven Moon imbeciles... especially Octavius.

The training grounds are quieter now, most of the wolves either cooling down or moving on to other duties. And so I find an old punching bag hanging from a thick chain and decide to focus all my frustration on it. Each strike sends a satisfying thud into the air, but it's not enough to drown out the gnawing irritation in my chest.

I glance over at him.

Octavius stands on the far side of the grounds, his shoulders square, his posture that infuriating mix of authority and ease. He whispers something to Samson and Miyuki, his icy blue eyes drifting toward me briefly before turning back to his conversation.

It's like he's monitoring me, waiting for me to slip up.

I roll my eyes and turn back to the punching bag, landing a sharp hook that sends it swinging. Focus, Kaida. Forget him. Forget all of them.

But then, I sense someone approaching from behind, their footsteps hesitan

  • Taming the Rogue Luna   Chapter 164

    K A I D AThe day before war feels like a lie.Too quiet. Too still.There’s a weight in the air, heavy and waiting, like the moment before a storm breaks. Everyone feels it. You can see it in the way people move through the halls—faster, sharper. Eyes that won’t meet for too long. Conversations cut short.They’re all thinking the same thing: this could be the end.And none of us are saying it out loud.I stand on the upper balcony of the war chamber, overlooking the training courtyard where warriors move in formation. It’s like watching a heartbeat—synchronized, steady, ready to surge.Below me, Korra walks between rows, arms crossed, correcting stances, issuing commands. Her voice is calm, but I can hear the intensity beneath it.She’s grown into her role faster than any Alpha I’ve ever seen.I press my hand to the stone railing, grounding myself.It still doesn’t feel real.A few months ago, I was a lone wolf, barely surviving. Now I’m here—mated, leading, fighting a war I never as

  • Taming the Rogue Luna   Chapter 165

    K A I D ABy the time we make it back to the stronghold, the adrenaline has begun to wear off—but the urgency hasn’t.The memory of the creature in the forest—the hulking, rune-covered beast—still lingers in my mind. It wasn’t a soldier. It wasn’t even human. It was something else. A message.Lucien knows we’re close. And he’s no longer just using Lycans to fight his war.Inside the war chamber, the others gather fast. Jace is already there, speaking with Kita in hushed tones. Valerie and Anita stand over a wide map spread across the central stone table. Korra and I enter together, still covered in dust and sweat from the scouting mission.Octavius meets my eyes immediately. “What happened?”I glance toward Korra, then step forward. “Lucien’s fortress isn’t a camp—it’s a damn city. Guard towers, cells, machines, creatures I’ve never seen before.”“And patrols?” Anita asks.“Too many to count. But that’s not even the worst of it.” I lean on the edge of the table. “He’s got something el

  • Taming the Rogue Luna   Chapter 163

    K A I D AThere’s a shift in the air the next morning.It’s subtle—just a change in the wind, a pressure against the skin that doesn’t quite belong. But I feel it the second I wake up.Something’s coming.I sit up in bed, blink against the gray light filtering through the stone shutters. My room in the Admosian stronghold is spartan—stone walls, thick furs on the bed, a table covered in maps and weapons. Nothing personal. Nothing soft.It fits.I rise and start moving, pulling on my gear piece by piece—black armor fitted to my form, reinforced with woven silver in the joints, lightweight but strong. Battle gear.By the time I tie my hair back, there’s a knock at the door.It’s Korra.Her eyes meet mine, and I know she feels it too.“Something’s shifted,” she says.“Yeah. I feel it.”We head to the war hall together. The corridors are filled with warriors. Tension hangs like a storm cloud above us all—silent, brewing. They feel it too.Inside the hall, Octavius is already standing with

  • Taming the Rogue Luna   Chapter 162

    K A I D AYou’d think preparing for war would feel like chaos.But this?This is silence.The kind that vibrates in your bones before the storm hits.The kind of silence that makes your breath feel too loud, your thoughts too sharp.I stand at the top of the eastern wall, looking out over the valley. The air up here is crisp, sharp with the bite of winter. Below, the Admosian warriors move like clockwork—unloading crates, sharpening blades, reinforcing the perimeter of the fortress.The sky is a washed-out gray. No birds. No sound.It’s like the world knows something’s coming. And it’s holding its breath.Behind me, the doors to the fortress creak open, and footsteps echo across the stone.Korra’s voice cuts through the quiet. “They’re here.”My heart skips once. Then it steadies. Of course they’re here.The first of the allied packs.I follow her down the stairwell, through the arching halls until we reach the courtyard—where the outer gates are wide open, and the first group enters

  • Taming the Rogue Luna   Chapter 161

    When the meeting finally wraps up, Octavius dismisses the gathered wolves with a curt nod just as I watch everyone disperse around me. The tension in the room doesn't fade completely, though. Everyone knows the stakes tomorrow, and no one wants to be the one who screws it up... and I don't want that to be me.I hang back, not quite ready to face him, but knowing I don't have a choice. My mind is still reeling from hearing that name—the Tyro Pack.Of all the damn packs.Lucas glances at me, his brows knitting together when he notices my silence. "You okay? You've been awfully quiet."I then look to him, finding him looking down at me curiously, right before I shake my head and try to keep my head together."I'm fine," I answer, a little sharper than I intend. His frown deepens, but he doesn't press me. I'm grateful for that, at least at him and the others don't give me as much trouble as before."I'll see you later Lucas." I tell him, walking off before he even has the chance to respon

  • Taming the Rogue Luna   Chapter 160

    K A I D AThe bruises haven’t even faded from the last trial when Kita calls us back to the courtyard.No rest.No congratulations.Just silence and the weight of whatever comes next.Korra walks beside me, silent. Focused. There’s a tension in her shoulders that I recognize—because it mirrors my own. It’s not just about survival anymore. It’s about legacy. About preparing for whatever monster Lucien is planning to unleash next.Kita stands beneath the stone archway, dressed in armor that looks like it belongs in a history book. A long black coat trimmed in silver. A blade on her back that pulses faintly with energy I can feel from ten feet away.I stop in front of her. “What now? Trial three?”She nods once. “The final one.”Korra crosses her arms. “Let me guess. We’re jumping into lava or battling demons from the underworld?”“No,” Kita says, her voice unusually low. “This one… is different.”That alone is enough to put me on edge.She gestures for us to follow her, and we do, throu
