The Goddess Vessel Sentinel
VANESSA'S POVThe celebration eventually bled into exhaustion. The great hall emptied, warriors stumbling off to well-earned rest, their laughter fading into the quiet of the sleeping pack. Adrien, his arm draped over my shoulders, led me to our chambers. The pride and relief still radiated from him, a warm, drowsy hum through our bond. He believed the night was over. He believed we were safe.I let him believe it.I played my part until the very end, until his breathing evened out into the deep, steady rhythm of sleep beside me. Only then did I allow the mask to crumble. The silence of our room was deafening, a stark contrast to the raucous hall. The weight of my secret was a physical ache, a stone lodged beneath my ribs.I slipped from the bed, moving as silently as a ghost. The moonstone dagger on its stand pulsed gently, its light a cool blue in the darkness. I wrapped my fingers around the hilt, not to draw strength, but to feel its unwavering truth. It was a anchor in a world su
The Goddess Vessel The weight of a crown
VANESSA'S POVThe victory celebration in the great hall was a cacophony of relief and roaring life. Mead flowed, the fire roared in the hearth, and warriors clashed tankards, recounting their blows with booming laughter that shook the rafters. The air thrummed with the pack's restored vitality, a powerful, heady current of shared survival.I sat beside Adrien on the raised dais, my hand clasped in his. He was immersed in it, his gaze sweeping over his people, his chest swelling with a pride so potent I could feel its warmth through our bond. This was his purpose, his reason for bearing the crown-to see them safe, to see them thrive even in the shadow of war.Every cheer for him was a balm on the wounds of the night. Every story of valor was a thread stitching the pack tighter together.But I could not join in.The laughter was a distant hum. The warmth of the fire did not reach the cold knot of dread that had taken root in my stomach. I watched Kael.He was everywhere. The consummate
The Goddess Vessel Fracture
VANESSA'S POVThe tide at the eastern pass was turning. We felt it through the bond before we saw it-the enemy's coordinated assault fracturing into panicked, isolated skirmishes. The feint had failed. The psychological attack had backfired, leaving Adrien not broken, but hardened into something more formidable than they could have imagined.We ran toward the sound of battle, a different kind of unit now. Adrien, a silent force of nature focused on a single goal. Sage Nolan, a bastion of ancient power. And me, my connection to the pack a live wire, channeling their rising confidence and feeding it back to them as strength.We crested the final ridge overlooking the pass. The scene below was chaos under the moonlight. Eclipse warriors, fighting with the disciplined fury Adrien had drilled into them, were pushing the invaders back. The invaders themselves were a mix of rough-clad rogues and a few disciplined soldiers in uniforms bearing a symbol I couldn't make out-a jagged sun. But the
The Goddess Vessel Unbreakable
VANESSA'S POVThe rasping, stolen voice hung in the air, a poison meant to paralyze. Adrien's anguish was a physical wound in my own soul, a searing tear in the fabric of our bond. The animated corpses began to advance, their movements jerky and wrong, their glowing crimson eyes fixed on their former Alpha.They were a wall of his most painful memories given rotting flesh, and they were closing in.Sage Nolan raised his staff, his face a mask of grim sorrow. "Abominations! Their rest has been violated! We must grant them peace!"But I knew claws and magic wouldn't win this. Shattering these puppets would only deepen Adrien's horror. The enemy wasn't in these bodies. The enemy was the idea they represented: that his past could be used to destroy his future. That his love for his pack could be turned into a weapon against him.I stepped in front of Adrien.I didn't push him behind me. I simply placed myself between him and the nightmare, my back to the advancing corpses, my hands framin
The Goddess Vessel Corrupted Light
VANESSA'S POVThe stench of blood and ozone hung thick in the clearing. The two fallen mages were dark shapes on the ground, but my focus was on the moonstone. Its light was steady again, a clean, silver pulse that beat in time with my own heart. The corrupting touch was gone, scoured away.But the victory felt hollow. The eastern pass still screamed through the bond-the clashing of wills and weapons a distant, thunderous roar in my soul. And one mage had escaped, carrying the knowledge of our defense back to his masters.Adrien stood over the second mage's body, his chest heaving, his claws retracting. His green eyes glowed with a feral light in the darkness. "They adapt quickly." His voice was a low rasp. "They won't make the same mistake twice."Sage Nolan approached the cleansed stone, his staff's light dimming. "This was a test. A costly one for them, but a test nonetheless. They now know the Luna can purify their corruption. They will not send mere acolytes next time."A cold dr
The Goddess Vessel Spark
VANESSA'S POVThe calm shattered at precisely 3:17 in the morning.It wasn't a sound that woke me. It was a scream.Not a physical one that echoed through the sleeping pack, but a psychic shriek that tore through the moonstone network and ripped through the heart of the pack bond. It was the alarm we had woven-a raw, piercing sensation of pure, undiluted malice that flared against the shield and triggered its deafening silent cry.I bolted upright in bed, a gasp tearing from my throat. Beside me, Adrien was already on his feet, his body tensed for a fight, his eyes glowing faintly in the dark.The eastern pass, the thought slammed into my mind, not as words, but as a shared, instantaneous knowing that flashed from Kael through the bond to Adrien and directly into my consciousness.They weren't probing. They weren't taunting.They were here.Adrien was a blur of motion, pulling on his clothes. I scrambled after him, my heart hammering a frantic rhythm against my ribs. The peaceful calm
