The moon shone lightly, with a scar—a scar caused by Astrid’s pain. Even the universe could feel something terrible is about to unfold upon Greymoon.

Astrid stood at the end of the balcony, her gown glowing faintly under the moonlight. Behind Sebastian stood watching her silently

He said nothing; he only observed that was what he always did —observe her every move and do nothing. There were times Astrid even forgot that he was there. His gaze was always on her, the look that saw more than she wanted him to see. The kind that made her feel serene, and most times the kind that made her forget the sorrows in her heart. But lately, he has been distant and off. Having a cold foot in the revenge plans, something’s not right; she can feel it, but he keeps waving it off, saying it was nothing and that it was just a pack issue, which will be sorted sooner or later.

    Sebastian’s POVI stood outside the balcony, watching her. Astrid is now Celeste. The rage in her heart, I could feel something darker coming. I know every bit of the prophecy, and that was why I met Astrid; she was the one who awakened the BLOOD MOON. Years ago, I accidentally went into the Ancient Temple, forbidden from entering by anyone, and that was when I saw the prophecy carved on the walls.On the night Astrid was rejected, the first sign showed. “When lies and greed break the bond of fate, the moon will bleed until the heart either forgives or the world burns.”When Astrid faked her death, there was an imbalance in the divine realm. Astrid’s rejection and fake death Unbalanced the Moon, promising chaos and destruction. “The moment Alpha Damien rejected and betrayed Astrid, his Luna, the moon goddess turned her back on us, not just Astrid.”She was a Luna, born from the lineage of the First Luna in line with the Moon goddess herself. Astrid was not supposed to survive

    OneeeeeeeThe 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.Mrs. Woods sat at the edge of the

    Astrid (Celeste) POVThe first signs of Damien’s unraveling came quietly.A miscalculated trade here, a misplaced trust there — minor errors that multiplied like fractures in glass.And I made sure each crack widened.He’d begun taking advice from men who saw him not as a leader, but as a liability they could profit from. I didn’t stop him. I only whispered, “You’re doing the right thing, my love,” each time he turned a blind eye to logic.The more chaos he created, the more power I gained — and I hated myself for how easy it was.By the second week, the council chamber was a battlefield.Packs that had once pledged loyalty to Grey Moon started withdrawing from trade deals individually. The Dominion pushed back, threatening sanctions unless “Lady Celeste” was granted complete control over the finances.And Damien, too trusting, too in love, gave me everything without a second thought.It should’ve felt like victory.But it didn’t.Because at night, when the halls went quiet and the fi

    Celeste’s (Astrid’s) POVThe council chamber reeked of fear.Not the kind born of battle — the quiet kind that made men choose their words carefully and pretend they didn’t see the knife at their throat.I stood behind Damien’s chair, calm on the surface, though the air in the room felt tense. Damien leaned forward, hands pressed against the table as the elders argued over numbers and alliances — all scrambling to hold together what was already slipping through their fingers.“The Southern Pack has cut off all trade routes,” Elder Ronan barked, slamming his palm down. “They’re saying we missed a shipment payment.”“That’s not true,” Damien shot back, eyes narrowing. “Grey Moon doesn’t miss payments — ever.”I tilted slightly, my tone calm and measured — smooth as silk.“Perhaps the misunderstanding lies in old agreements. The Southern Pack’s records are notoriously outdated. We could modernize the contract.”Elder Ronan’s glare shifted to me. “And by ‘modernize,’ you mean let the Domi

    It was astonishing how easily trust could be bought with the right smile.Damien had always been the kind of man who mistook softness for sincerity. He saw care where there was calculation, loyalty where there was leverage. And in this game, that flaw was my greatest weapon.The council chamber of Grey Moon was quiet, its round oak table reflecting the golden morning light. Damien sat at the head, shoulders squared, jaw tense — a picture of authority slowly unraveling beneath the weight of his doubts.“Celeste,” he said, rubbing the bridge of his nose, “the council’s been breathing down my neck again. They think I’m spending too much on border patrols, too little on trade routes—everyone’s an expert lately.”I let a note of sympathy enter my voice. “They only question because they don’t see what you see. But sometimes, Damien… vision requires sacrifice.”He looked up, confused. Perfect.“What kind of sacrifice?” he asked.“The kind that frees you from old burdens,” I replied softly, s
