Vanessa did not flinch. She tilted her head, and smiled widely. "What will you do, Edwin? Now, you are sounding all strong and solid. What will you do, huh? Lock me up? Or at the most, kill me?" She scoffed. " It still will not stop my father from achieving his goal. It will only empower him the more, and you know it."

Edwin's grip tightened around her wrist. Without another word, he dragged her across the room, past the stunned maids who shrank back against the walls. Vanessa did not resist or

    Vanessa did not flinch. She tilted her head, and smiled widely. "What will you do, Edwin? Now, you are sounding all strong and solid. What will you do, huh? Lock me up? Or at the most, kill me?" She scoffed. " It still will not stop my father from achieving his goal. It will only empower him the more, and you know it."Edwin's grip tightened around her wrist. Without another word, he dragged her across the room, past the stunned maids who shrank back against the walls. Vanessa did not resist or fight back, she simply laughed, releasing a hollow, mocking sound that echoed through the corridor."Such theatrics," she mused as he pulled her into the main hall. "You always prefer dramatics when you lost control."Guards and servants froze as Edwin hauled her down the marble steps, the pack witnessing the Alpha's fury unleashed."You are going to watch what you and your delusional father have caused," Edwin snarled. "You will watch and see the lives you are gambling with for power."With th

    The war tent in Ashbane's border camp was stuffy and suffocating with tension. There were maps, scrolls, and battle markers scattered across a large table. Outside, the Ashbane's warriors sharpened their blades, loaded supply wagons, and whispered rumors of the Dark Moon's growing resistance amongst themselves.Garrett paced like a caged wolf, his face darkened with fury. Across from him, Vorn, the Ashbane Alpha, lounged in his chair with a grin that did not reach his eyes spread on his face."The last two spies are yet to report back," Garrett snarled. "I thought that they were your best." He shook his head."And what is that supposed to mean?" Alpha Vorn snapped at him. "Are you doubting my strength and men?" "I do not think that I have made any statement that belittles you, but I am sorry if my words were harsh," Garrett grudgingly apologized. " But what I am saying is that, even the ones who have managed to report back to us have all been silenced.""At this point, I do not think

    In the modest chamber Edwin had specially created for her, Tiara sat alone, trying to focus on the scroll in her hands. They were reports from the outer patrols, guard rotations, supply manifests. But the words blurred. Her heartbeat was so loud that she could hear it in her ears. Something was seriously wrong.Suddenly, the air in the room shifted, heavy and cold, as if unseen hands were pressing against her temples. Her vision darkened at the edges, followed by flashes. It was not a dream, not illusions, but prophecies. A battlefield drenched in ashes, not snow. Wolves, the Dark Moon wolves turning on each other amidst whispers, confusion, and broken oaths.A banner falling, Edwin's banner. At the center of this all was a figure, cloaked in the Ashbane pack uniform, standing over a fallen elder, with a smirk carved into his face. And Tiara herself... standing in the midst of it all, holding no blade, but carrying the weight of a choice that would either save or perish them all.He

  • The Gifted Luna    Chapter 78:Serpents in the Fold

    In the cold stone chamber of Ashbane's war hall, Garrett and Alpha Kael stood over a large table, looking down at a rough map of the Dark Moon Pack sprawled across its surface. Several key locations were circled in dark ink. The council of elders chambers, training grounds, supply routes, and guard posts.Alpha Kael's sharp claw traced along a narrow path that etched into the northern border."This is where they are weakest. The forest trails near the old mill are barely guarded at night. We should slip in through here."Garrett nodded, his expression taut with calculation. "You are indeed a man whose calculations are unpredictable," he commented.Alpha Kael scoffed. " I did not rise to this position by being meek or following the usual trend,""Right!" Garrett nodded. "Once we are able to infiltrate the place, the seed of chaos is sown. We should start with small acts at first. Sabotage their armories, burn whatever supplies they have and finally whisper lies into the ears of wavering

    Hours before the hearing, while most of the pack were still sleeping or preparing for the council session, Garrett met with an old contact on the outskirts of town, behind an abandoned bakery, where the scent of rot masked most conversations.The man waiting was draped in a tattered cloak, bearing the sign of the old Iron Watchers, mercenaries who served gold, not honor."I need you to stop a mouth from opening," Garrett had said, in a controlled low tone.The man slowly nodded. "The person in question is a maid. The one staying in the Alpha's quarters?""Yes," Garrett said. "I assure you that you will be paid in gold, land, or blood. Whatever currency you want!"The man smirked. "Done. But if the kill fails....""It should not!" he said angrily. "She is no tough wolf, she is just a girl haunted by guilt and fear. She will not and cannot fight back.""Does the Luna know about this?" The man asked, paying closer attention to Garrett's body language."Why are you bringing her into all of

  • The Gifted Luna    Chapter 76: The Council Hearing: Truth in the Line of Fire

    The great hall of the Dark Moon Pack's council chambers had never felt so suffocating. The space was full to the brim. Every elder, high-ranking warrior, personal guards, healers, and representatives from allied packs sat in silence, with the weight of anticipation pressing on every shoulder.At the head of the long, arched chamber which was a little above ground level sat Alpha Edwin, who was dressed in jet-black attire, flanked by Ralph, and a few other trusted guards. Together with the neutral elders, Marah sat close to him.His face was expressionless, but his fingers tapped slowly on the stone armrest of his chair. A gesture which was a signal: a show of readiness, go-ahead and anxiety.On either side of the room, the rest of Edwin's best guards stood alert. Ralph, stood right behind Marah's chair, kept his gaze sweeping the crowd.At the far back, Vanessa and Garrett sat together. Garrett's smile was too wide, too confident. Vanessa, however, watched the proceedings with arms cro

    Vanessa roused from her sleep with a sharp gasp, her throat all parched, her hands trembling against the silk sheets that covered the soft and comfortable bed. The room was cloaked in a pale blue glow—the moon, glowing at its peak, shining through the open window.A cold sweat had broken on her fo

    The raven Tiara had sent back flew into Edwin'sroom via his open window. A few hours just before dawn. Edwin was deep asleep to the extent that he did not notice when the bird flew into the room.Sleep had eluded him for so many days on his quest to unravel the mystery surrounding the corruption an
