A Wolf Unleashed

The moon hung high over the valley, casting silver streaks across Lyra’s cabin floor. She tossed and turned in her sleep, tangled in her blanket, her breath coming in shallow gasps.

The nightmare had her in its grip again.

Running.

Bleeding.

Alone.

She jolted upright with a strangled gasp, drenched in sweat. Her heartbeat thundered in her ears. Her skin burned like fire, her muscles twitching beneath the surface.

Then—pain.

Not emotional this time.

Physical.

Her fingers curled involuntarily, claws beginning to form.

Her back arched as her spine popped.

She clutched her head, biting back a scream.

No. Not now.

Her wolf was breaking through—but it wasn’t calm. It wasn’t controlled. It was wild. Unstable. Half-mad with grief and fury.

She staggered to her feet, knocking over the chair beside her bed.

The shift wasn’t like before. It was partial—like her body didn’t know whether to complete it or stop. Her hands trembled as fur crawled up her forearms and receded again. He

  • The Cursed Luna's Return    Chapter 263

    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

    Where Truth Has No Shelter The Ashen Vale truly lived up to its name. It sprawled out like a vast, scorched basin, a deep gash in the earth that looked like an ancient wound—stone bleached white from old fires, soil cracked and fragile after centuries of forgotten magic. No trees dared to grow here. No birds flew across its skies. Even the wind seemed to hold back, opting for a whisper instead of a howl. This was a place where battles had once brought civilizations to their knees. And today, it lay in wait once more. Aria sensed it the moment she crossed the threshold. The air shifted. Magic felt thin—flattened—stripped of its usual flair. Here, power didn’t roar or shimmer; it stood bare, unprotected, unable to hide behind symbols or beliefs. “Be careful,” Selene whispered beside her. “The Vale reveals intention before strength.” Aria nodded, already feeling the weight of it. Behind her, banners fluttered as delegations arrived from all corners—packs, covens,

  • The Cursed Luna's Return    Chapter 258

    The Invitation Written in Blood The invitation showed up at dawn. It didn’t arrive by messenger, raven, or some magical seal. Instead, it was nailed right to the gates. An iron spike had pierced through the parchment and oak, splitting the ancient wood like it was bone. Blood—still fresh—streaked the paper in thin lines that dripped onto the stone below. Nyx was the first to spot it. She froze in place. Then she cursed under her breath. By the time Rowan made it to the gate, the courtyard had gone eerily quiet. Warriors stood stiffly, hands on their weapons, eyes locked on the single sheet fluttering weakly in the morning breeze. Rowan yanked it free. Blood smeared across his fingers. Aria joined him moments later, barefoot, her hair tousled from sleep, Moonlight still faintly glowing beneath her skin. One glance at Rowan’s face told her everything she needed to know. “He’s done hiding,” she said. Rowan handed her the parchment. The handwriting was elega
