The air smelled like smoke. Just a little. It was coming in from a small crack in the window.

Elise sat outside, behind the healer’s place. Her back was resting on a big tree.

The sun wasn’t really out yet.

There was a little light in the sky, soft and slow, like it didn’t even want to rise.

Her cloak was on, but it wasn’t warm. She didn’t care.

She kept touching a loose thread on her sleeve. Just turning it in her fingers.

She’d been sitting there for over an hour.

She couldn’t sleep.

Not after what they saw.

Not after what the boy said.

Her eyes burned—not from tears, but from the weight of everything she didn’t understand.

The dreams.

The wolves.

The fear in everyone’s eyes.

And still, no one looked at her the same.

She was still the unstable one.

Still the outsider.

Powerless, yet somehow still dangerous in their eyes.

A door creaked open behind her.

Slow and firm footsteps were made across the wooden porch.

Elise didn’t turn until the person spoke.

    The room was quiet.Too quiet.Elise shifted under the covers, her brow creased as she turned her face into the pillow. Her body felt stiff. Her mind wasn’t fully awake, but something tugged at her.The dream.It had been one of those dreams, the kind that left your skin cold and your chest tight, even after you woke up.She sat up slowly, rubbing her arms.She had seen them again.Feral wolves.Not just one this time. Not like the WhiteMoon Ball. There were many of them. Their glowing red eyes, their torn black fur, their twisted snouts, teeth so sharp they looked like they could cut through stone.And they were running.No.Hunting.In the dream, Elise had been standing in a village. One she didn’t recognize, but it felt familiar. The sky was gray. The wind was loud. And the wolves were everywhere. Tearing through homes. Ripping into anything that moved. The screams… thosevscreams wouldn’t leave her head.“Elise.”Her door creaked open.She jumped slightly.Kai stood ther

    The sky was still grey when Elise opened her eyes. Not the soft, comforting kind of grey that promised a gentle morning, but the dull, heavy kind that made everything feel slower.She stared at the ceiling for a long time, letting her mind drift in and out of focus. Her body ached in places that weren’t physical. She could still feel the silence in her bones — the kind that lingered after too many goodbyes and not enough answers.The power was still gone.She tested it again. Just in case.She placed her palm over her chest and closed her eyes. Imagined the light. The warmth. The fire.Nothing.No glow. No flicker. Not even a heartbeat of energy.It was like trying to scream in a dream — like something inside her had been locked away and swallowed whole.She sighed quietly and pulled herself out of bed.Today wasn’t going to wait for her grief.By mid-morning, Elise found herself outside, her cloak wrapped tightly around her as she walked past the garden and through the outer field

  • The Alpha’s Moonbreather    CHAPTER 33

    Elise sat by the window of the infirmary, her legs were folded together, swinging back and forth while she rested her forehead on the sliding glass of the window.Outside, the training grounds were full of movement, they were filed with the sounds of laughter, shouting, and the rhythmic clash of weapons. Life was continuing, like nothing had happened. Everyone even seemed happier. The thought of this gave Elise mixed feelings and emotions. Not like she wanted them to be sad, she just felt bad for not fully enjoying or the happiness which loomed over them.It all felt surreal.Like she hadn’t just lost the one thing that made her feel like she belonged. Like she wasn’t sitting here, broken and forgotten.Kai had stepped out for a few minutes. He’d been hovering around her nonstop, barely leaving her side, and while Elise appreciated it, a part of her needed space. She didn’t want to be a burden to him.And it wasn’t because of him in anyway.Not because of him, but because of ho

    Elise opened her eyes slowly.The light in the room was soft. Not too bright, but enough to make her squint a little. Her head was heavy. Like it wasn’t really part of her body.She lay there for a second, still and quiet, just staring at the ceiling.Where was she?She turned her head to the side.That’s when she saw him—Kai. Sitting in a wooden chair right next to the bed. His head was tilted down like he’d been dozing off, arms crossed, one leg tapping softly like he was waiting on something.No.Not something.Her.The second her movement made a sound, Kai looked up fast.“Elise?” His voice was low, but full of relief. “You’re awake.”She blinked at him. Her lips moved, but nothing came out. Her throat felt dry. She tried again.“…What happened?”Kai sat up straighter, leaning in a little. “You passed out. Back at the training grounds. After the light… the blast.”Right. The light.Her eyes widened as the memory came back. That feeling in her chest. Like fire. Like her whole

    There was a long, stretched silence after Elder Kion said, “That is enough.”Like everyone was still expecting something to happen. Maybe they were still panicking, Elise wasn’t sure.She stood frozen in the circle, her chest rising and falling as if she’d just ran a mile. Her palms were still glowing faintly, like the light was still contemplating on wether to stay or leave. She looked at her palms, wondering how to quench the light.She almost didn’t know how to put it on, not to talk of putting it off.The warrior she’d just faced had taken another step back. His expression was unreadable, but it wasn’t mocking. If anything, he looked… fascinated by the lights flickering on her plans.He looked at Elise with respect.Elder Kion walked slowly to a pavement close to the circle where Elise and the warrior were standing.The other council members stood with him, whispering amongst themselves.Their eyes stayed fixed on Elise.“She’s able to control the light,” one of them said.“I
