The High Council chamber was filled to the brim. The walls of Archview’s great hall gleamed with banners of gold and black, the air thick with tension and the metallic scent of authority. Elder wolves stood in formation along the perimeter, their faces carved in stone-like expressions. Becky stood at the center, draped in mourning gray — a calculated choice, humble but striking.

She bowed deeply before Kion and the gathered council. “Honored Elders,” she began, her tone soft but clear, “I wish

    The evenings by the cliffs were always quiet now.Not the tense kind of quiet that made Elise brace for something to break, but the kind that settled naturally, like the world finally exhaling after holding its breath for too long. The sea below reflected the moon in soft silver streaks, calm enough that even the waves seemed tired of fighting.Elise stood near the edge of the cliff, barefoot, the cool stone familiar beneath her feet. The wind tugged gently at her hair, carrying the scent of salt and distant fires from the city far below. Archview still bore scars, but it was rebuilding. Slowly. Carefully.Behind her, Kai finished setting down two cups of tea on the small table outside their cottage.“You’re going to catch cold standing out there like that,” he said, not sharply, just the way someone speaks when they know the other person won’t listen anyway.Elise smiled without turning around. “I’ve survived worse.”He came up behind her and slipped his arms around her waist, restin

    The city did not know what to do with Elise Thorne.That was the problem.In the days after the battle, Archview did not celebrate the way cities usually did. There were no parades, no banners, no songs. Too many bodies still lay unburned. Too many buildings were half-standing. Too many families were counting who had not come back.But wherever Elise went, people stopped.Not because guards ordered them to.Not because she demanded it.They stopped because they did not know how to stand in front of her.Some bowed awkwardly. Others stared openly. A few cried when they realized who she was. Children hid behind their parents’ legs and peeked out at her with wide eyes.“She’s the one,” someone whispered as Elise passed through the market square.“The Moon woman,” another said.Elise heard all of it.She hated all of it.She wore no crown. No armor. Just simple clothes, clean but plain, her silver hair tied back to keep it out of her face. Still, people moved aside as if she carried somet

    The battlefield did not smell like victory.It smelled like burned stone, wet ash, and blood that had no one left to claim it.Silence lay over Archview like a fragile skin stretched too tight, the kind that would tear if anyone spoke too loudly. The fires that had raged only minutes earlier were now dying down on their own, embers glowing weakly in the cracks of shattered streets. Broken weapons lay where hands had dropped them. Bodies, human and wolf alike, were scattered in unnatural stillness, as though the world itself had forgotten how to move.Elise stood in the middle of it.The purified Moonstone rested in her palms, warm and humming softly, like a living heart. Its light was no longer blinding or violent. It glowed gently now, white threaded with silver, steady and calm in a way that felt almost unreal after everything that had come before.Her hands were shaking.She tried to stop it. Tried to steady her breathing. Tried to tell herself that the danger was over, that the fi

    Silence came down on Archview slowly, like something unsure whether it was welcome.It followed the last echo of collapsing stone, the final hiss of extinguished fire, the fading hum of magic leaving the air. No one spoke. No one moved. Even the wind seemed to hesitate, as if afraid to disturb what had just ended.Elise stood where the Moonstone had vanished, her boots planted in cracked stone slick with ash and blood. Her shoulders were still tense, as though she were bracing for another blow that never came. The silver glow around her skin lingered faintly, pulsing once, twice, before beginning to dim.All around her, surviving wolves gathered without being ordered.They came slowly. Carefully.Some limped. Some leaned on one another. Some still had blood on their hands that was not their own. They formed a loose circle around her, keeping distance, unsure whether approaching her was reverence or trespass.They stared.Not with fear.Not with hunger.With awe so raw it hurt to witne

    The Moonstone no longer screamed.It hovered above Elise’s open palms, weightless, steady, glowing with a clean white and silver light that did not burn or pulse violently, but breathed. Slow. Measured. Alive in a way that felt whole instead of hungry.Elise stared at it, her arms trembling from exhaustion, her lungs still burning from the last surge of power she had forced through herself. The square around her was almost unrecognizable. Stone lay cracked and split, towers reduced to jagged stumps, ash drifting lazily through the air like snow that had forgotten how to fall.She could hear nothing at first.No howls. No screams. No chanting.Just silence.Then the light expanded.It did not explode outward. It unfolded.A gentle wave rolled from the Moonstone, passing through Elise’s hands and chest without resistance, like warm water washing over a wound that had finally closed. The silver glow slid across broken streets and shattered walls, threading through cracks, sinking into sc

    The light did not fade when the explosion ended.It hung in the air, heavy and blinding, filling the shattered square with a pressure that made stone groan and metal twist. When the dust finally settled, Elise stood at the center of it all, her feet planted in broken ground, her breath uneven, her chest rising hard as if she had just clawed her way back from drowning.Across from her, Becky still stood.Barely.Her massive form staggered, chunks of corrupted stone and flesh sloughing off her body as if gravity itself had begun to reject her. Dark energy leaked from deep cracks across her chest and shoulders, pulsing weakly, unevenly. The roar that had once shaken the city had dwindled into a wet, rasping growl.Becky swayed, claws scraping uselessly against the ground.Elise stared at her, eyes glowing with a steady silver light that did not flicker.“It’s over,” Elise said, her voice hoarse but unshaken.Becky laughed.It came out wrong. Broken. Half a sob, half a snarl.“You still t
