In the quiet solitude of his study, Edwin leaned over his desk, opening scrolls and scattered reports under the candlelight dancing across the room. The fire crackled in the hearth behind him, but the real source of heat emanated from the orders that he had just written.

He passed the sealed message across the table to Ralph, who stood in a corner of the room, standing at attention like a statue moulded out of loyalty.

"I suggest that you go through those names carefully. There should be no mi

  • The Gifted Luna    Chapter 121:Tiara's Vision

    While the Alpha schemed in the storm, Tiara slept fitfully miles away, haunted by shadows.The fire in her chamber burned low, casting trembling light across her face. Her dreams came in fragments. They came like flashes of crimson, the scent of blood, the echo of wolves howling under a burning moon.Then, silence.A figure appeared in the fog before her. It was a woman, pale and ethereal, her eyes bright as starlight. Tiara knew that voice, though she had not heard it since childhood."My daughter," the voice whispered. "The moon shows what is coming.""Mother?" Tiara breathed, her voice trembling.Her mother reached out a hand that shimmered like mist."War comes again, Tiara. But this time, it will not be between packs. It will be between hearts, between vengeance and destiny.""You speak in par

    The silence between them stretched, heavy and sharp.Garrett slumped again, his voice dropping to a rasp. "You think you are the first Alpha Aldric used? He has been doing this for decades, sowing wars, trading power, bleeding packs dry. He will never stop. Not until he owns every territory under the moon."Edwin's gaze hardened. "Then I will stop him."Garrett gave a hoarse laugh. "You will try. But Aldric isn't like me. He is clever. He hides behind alliances, treaties, oaths. You won't find him easily."Edwin turned to leave, but Garrett's voice stopped him."Edwin."He paused."You have already taken everything from me," Garrett quietly said. "But if you go after Aldric, don't make my mistake. Do not become him."Edwin's jaw tightened, but he didn't reply.He simply walked out, the iron door s

    It began with a letter.Ralph brought it into Alpha's chamber one cold evening, his boots echoing against the stone floor. The air was thick with the scent of rain; thunder rumbled faintly in the distance."Ralph," Edwin called the moment he entered into his study. "What brings you here at this time of the day?""My lord, I come bearing news. One that needs to be urgently attended to," Ralph said, stretching out his hand."Where did you get this from?" Edwin asked, not looking up from the reports before him."Intercepted," Ralph replied. "One of our scouts found it on a rogue messenger outside the border. He said he wanted to ignore it at first, but he could not overlook it when he spotted that it was marked with the Bloodfang insignia."At that, Edwin's eyes lifted sharply. "Bloodfang?"Ralph nodded grimly. "Yes, Alph

    Edwin did not visit the prisoners for days.He stayed in his quarters, reviewing reports, listening to Ralph's updates, and reading Tiara's quiet reassurances."Are they talking?" he finally asked Ralph one morning.Ralph hesitated. "No, Alpha. The father paces, curses, and rants. The daughter cries, then laughs, then prays. They are unraveling, both of them.""I do not really understand why you are doing this to them, but for whatever reason you are, it is working."Edwin nodded slowly."Good. Keep them apart."Ralph's brow furrowed. "And when they break?"Edwin's gaze hardened. "Only then will I listen."Tiara, standing quietly nearby, looked at him. Her face exhibited worry, one that overshadowed her expression."Do not let their destruction become yours

    Vanessa, by contrast, was kept in the upper wing, a cleaner cell, but surrounded by guards who were under strict orders not to speak a word to her. Even if she were dying.The separation was meant to break them, and it did.Garrett sat hunched against the damp wall, his once-powerful shoulders now slumped beneath the weight of his own thoughts.The silence was maddening.He could hear the faint echo of dripping water, the scratch of rats in the corners, the rhythm of his own breathing, until even that began to sound like someone else's.He had always ruled through fear, always commanded loyalty through dominance. But down here, there was no one left to command.No one to lie to. No one believed to believe him.Days passed. He began talking to himself, quietly at first, then louder."They think they have won," he mutte

    Vanessa paced on the rooftop of the Alpha's quarters. Her perfectly manicured nails kept digging and scratching her palms.Edwin had been gone for three days, three days that felt like an eternity to her..“He should have returned by now,” she muttered, gluing her eyes on the road that disappeared

    The arena was dead silent.A training accident, they called it. It had happened that a rare spearhead had dislodged from the ceiling where it was hanged and it sank right into the little boy. No one expected it. No one could have stopped it.Except for one girl.The same girl they had mocked, ridi

    Garrett sat at the long council table, pacing slowly behind his chair, awaiting the outcome of the trap that had been set for Tiara.A single candle flickered between the elders, casting stretched shadows across their weathered faces.“This matter with Tiara is growing out of hand,” Elder Leonard m

    A few minutes later, Vanessa walked out of a place where Lena assumed to be her bathroom. She watched her as she took a seat before her. Dressed in a silky black robe. She crossed her arms, wearing an expectant expression ."And??" She coldly said.Lena immediately fell on her knees. Her face glued
