The letter arrived at dawn.

It was sealed with wax and smelled faintly of lavender and smoke — the scent Mrs. Woods remembered from the night she’d last seen Celeste. She’d been too desperate to question it. Inside, the handwriting was soft and slanted, feminine, like someone trying not to be recognized.

“If you want to save your daughter, there’s only one way.

Alpha Damien is suffering because the world believes she’s mad.

Remove him, and Taylor will be freed.

The vial enclosed will make it painless.

You are not alone in this fight.

— An ally of the Moon.”

The Woods never noticed the faint shimmer in the ink — the trace of magic that carried Astrid’s scent, hidden beneath the disguise of Celeste’s handwriting.

They never once imagined that the so-called ally offering them hope was, in truth, the very shadow waiting to watch their world burn.

By the time the sun sank behind the pines, the choice was already made — or maybe it had made them.

  • The Alpha’s Rejected Mate Was The Stolen Werewolf Princess    Chapter 70

    Astrid’s POVLucian’s endgame is no longer about power and that was what terrified me now Power announces itselfPower is not quite Power is loudBut Lucian’s plans seemed quiet What Lucian wanted was permissionPermission from the councilI got to realize this when I stood alone in the old training ring that had been off-limits for quite some time now.The training ground was an abandoned stone circle where pups would normally train to learn their first shifts and where young Alphas learned in the lower ground without any guard or guide.I stood alone without anyone watching me, not even Sebastian.I needed this space.The night was just moonlight and truth.The atmosphere is so pure.I closed my fingers around the relic in my hand and I took a deep and slow breath.“Just a little,” I whispered. “It won’t cause any harm,” I assured myself that I wasn’t going to open anything.Then the air around responded like they understood me all along.The air responded not violently It only

  • The Alpha’s Rejected Mate Was The Stolen Werewolf Princess    Chapter 69 part 2

    Astrid’s POVThe world felt like it was ending slowly The first sign is the silence. Not the peaceful kind. The wrong kind. The kind that settles over the pack like a held breath. Sebastian walks beside me through the east corridor of the compound, his shoulder occasionally brushing mine. He’s solid. Warm. Real. Too real for the way my chest keeps tightening like something is missing. Or worse— Like something is watching. “You should still be resting,” he says, glancing at me. “You’ve barely eaten.” “I’m fine,” I lie. I’ve been saying that for two days. Ever since I woke up. Ever since the dream refused to fade the way dreams are supposed to. We turn a corner— —and I stop. Sebastian takes one more step before he realizes I’m no longer beside him. “Astrid?” I’m staring at the floor. At the pattern carved into the stone. A crescent intersected by a broken circle. My stomach drops. That wasn’t here before. It couldn’t have been. I saw it in the dream—etched into t

    Astrid’s POV The forest became still I stayed drowning in my own tears until my eyes couldn’t produce tears any longer. The moon goddess has gone back to her world, the immortal realm. The rift had gone, the veil across the sky that gave access to those from the immortal world to penetrate through to our world has gone and the night has once again become silent. It was as if nothing had even happened in the first place. With the moon goddess gone, the alpha god gone, the First LUNA gone as well, and most importantly Sebastian was gone. He was gone too. Not dead, but gone. It immediately dawned on me that I have to look for Sebastian, he must be somewhere around and possibly wounded too. I stood up immediately as I began searching the forest calling on to Sebastian’s name hoping and praying he could hear me and even answer me. After searching for a couple of minutes that looked so much like hours, I was beginning to get tired. The world was ending. Everything felt like i

    Astrid’s POVI quickly stood in front of Sebastian standing as a wall between Sebastian and the moon goddess. I was determined to put a stop to whatever madness this was.My wolf instinct screamed for me to leave the battle to Sebastian and the moon goddess, but I was not going to listen to it, at least not today.Sebastian’s presence was so strong.He had the aura of an immortal god. My knee became too weak to carry me due to Sebastian’s dominance.My wolf howled against my decision as it was torn between submission and loyalty. This has gone on for too long. This was indeed my longest night.Sebastian growls in his chest and it was more like a warning. He was warning me to stay away.“Astrid,” he called my name and it felt like poison in my ears.“Move away!” He said with a very thick voice with restrain.“I won’t.” I said boldly, “I’m not leaving you.”The moon goddess looked at us with a cold celestial look.“Are you still going to shield him after what he has become?” She aske
