The Echo in the Moon Veins

That night, the Moon Temple exuded a different aura—vibrant, restless, as if the ancient stones were murmuring warnings beneath the chilling breath of the wind. Luna sensed it as well. A gentle vibration coursed through her palms the instant she made contact with the wall of the inner chamber, her heartbeat aligning with the temple’s rhythm in a manner that caused her chest to constrict.

Something was stirring.

Something ancient… and something destined for her.

Rowan entered quietly behind her, his presence radiating warmth even amidst the frigid, storm-laden air. She refrained from turning, yet she sensed him pause, observing her with that careful intensity he adopted whenever he suspected the world was once again shifting around them.

“You sense it too, don’t you?” he inquired.

Luna released a slow breath. “It’s more potent than yesterday. The Heartstone has done something—awakened something. It feels as though the entire temple is attempting to communicat

  • The Cursed Luna's Return    Chapter 265

    When the Council Cracks Morian’s screams didn’t linger for long. The silver chains constricted, pulsing with a fire that mirrored the moon, forcing him down to his knees in the heart of the shattered oath circle. Smoke spiraled from his skin where the runes seared into his flesh, binding both truth and guilt. But what truly unsettled Aria wasn’t his suffering. It was the silence from the elders. They stood there, frozen—five figures who once wielded absolute power—now laid bare under the Moon’s judgment. Their robes fluttered weakly in the breeze, no longer emblems of authority but remnants of a deception too ancient to withstand the light. Rowan was beside Aria, blood drying on his forearm, his posture protective yet restrained. He felt it too—the moment when the world’s balance shifted. Finally, the iron-eyed elder spoke again, her voice stripped of its usual chill… now strained. “This was never meant to happen.” Aria turned to her slowly. “No,” she replied so

    The Trap Beneath the OathThe summons came at dawn.Not through a messenger.But by oath.Aria sensed it the moment the moon slipped below the horizon—a sharp tug at her chest, like invisible fingers tightening around a thread that only she could feel.Rowan stirred awake at the same moment.He shot up, his eyes already glowing silver. “They’ve called for you.”Aria nodded slowly. “An Oath Beacon.”His jaw tightened. “That means the Council is invoking ancient law.”“Yes,” she replied softly. “One they think I can’t refuse.”The beacon pulsed again—subtle yet unyielding—drawing her toward the old neutral grounds where treaties had been made and broken in the same breath.Rowan swung his legs over the bed. “So they expect you to go alone.”“They do,” Aria confirmed.“And you won’t be going alone.”She offered a faint smile. “No.”By midday, the pack was prepared.Not an army—too conspicuous.Not a council—too exposed.But a shadow force.Trusted warriors moved quietly through the

    The Council’s Hand The first indication that the High Council had taken action wasn’t the crackle of fire. It was an eerie silence. No warnings rang out from the borders. No scouts rushed back, breathless with news of encroaching rogues or battling packs. The forests were unnaturally quiet, as if even the wind had been commanded to hold its breath. Aria sensed it before anyone uttered a word. She stood at the edge of Silvercrest’s eastern watchtower, the moonlight draping over her like a second skin. The glow beneath her skin pulsed faintly—uneasy. Alert. “They’ve made their choice,” she whispered. Rowan stepped up beside her, his presence solid and grounding. “You felt it too.” “Yes.” Her fingers curled slowly. “And it wasn't without hesitation.” It was a calculation. Behind them, hurried footsteps echoed against the stone. A warrior skidded to a halt, bowing sharply. “Alpha. Luna—” He quickly corrected himself, unsure, then continued. “A messenger has a

    What the Moon Demands The war council chamber felt more cramped than ever before. Aria stood at the heart of it, her hands pressed against the ancient stone table, the silver torchlight flickering softly along the veins of moonlight that still shimmered beneath her skin. The atmosphere was thick—laden with fear, anticipation, and unspoken truths that everyone was too afraid to confront. Every Alpha in the room had their eyes on her. Not as a cursed Luna. Not merely as Rowan’s mate. But as something far more powerful. A force to be reckoned with. “The borders are collapsing faster than we thought,” Alpha Darius said grimly, shattering the silence. “Rogue packs are moving with a level of coordination. Precision. This isn’t just chaos—it’s a strategy.” Rowan stood beside Aria, arms crossed, his jaw clenched tight. “They’re being led.” “Yes,” Aria replied softly, her voice slicing through the tension with calm assurance. “By the High Council.” A murmur swept th

    The Name That Shouldn’t Exist The banners stood still. They lingered. That was what made Aria feel the most uneasy. Across the distant ridges of the Ashen Vale, symbols danced in the heavy wind—some displaying the crescent of lunar loyalty, while others bore unfamiliar sigils, sharp and intentionally strange. None crossed the boundary stones. None made a move to attack. They were observing. Evaluating. Deciding when to strike. “They’re testing our resolve,” Selene murmured beside her. “Not our strength.” Rowan’s jaw was tight, his eyes scanning every shadow. “Or they’re just waiting for us to tear ourselves apart.” “True enough,” Selene conceded. Below them, the Vale was alive with tension. Messengers were being sent out. Defensive circles were being reinforced. Arguments flared up only to be quickly hushed. No one wanted to be the first to openly challenge Aria—but no one was ready to follow blindly either. Aria felt the weight of it with every breath.

    When Silence Turns Hostile Silence didn’t equate to peace. Aria figured that out in no time. The Ashen Vale hung in an eerie quiet after the Prophet disappeared, but it wasn’t the calm that comes from understanding—it was the stillness of people rethinking their loyalties. It was the sound of beliefs cracking but not quite breaking. It was fear morphing into something sharper. She felt it like a tightening thread across her chest. Rowan moved closer, his presence a steady anchor. “They’re not finished,” he murmured. “No,” Aria replied softly. “They’re making their choices.” Around the obsidian circle, the delegations shifted uneasily. Some whispered urgently to one another, while others avoided eye contact altogether, as if acknowledging her would force them to take a stand. Selene let out a slow breath. “The Prophet didn’t leave because he was defeated,” she said. “He left because he sowed doubt.” Aria’s fingers curled slightly. “He planted that doubt before
