Chapter 113 : Ashfield

last update publish date: 2026-06-17 15:58:27

Stefan's contact reached Cass on a Tuesday.

The response came back Wednesday afternoon: she'd talk, but not at Strong Black Clan territory, not at any council-affiliated location, and not with Stefan present. She'd named a neutral meeting point—a roadside structure in the middle territories that served as a waystation for independent wolves passing through. Public enough to be safe. Remote enough to be private.

Jasmina sent Jetstar.

She'd debated going herself. Jets

  • The Luna With Ruin   Chapter 125: What To Do With Him

    Stefan's casualty report came at 0510.She read it in the command room with her hands on the desk and took it in slowly.Four wounded seriously. Fourteen with minor injuries. No deaths.She read the last line twice.No deaths.Three battles. She'd lost three people in the first. Zero in the second. Zero now.She put the report down and pressed her palms flat on the desk for a moment. Just that. Feeling the surface of the desk.Then she stood up and went to work.---Gareth was being held in the secured room in the main building's east wing.Stefan had put two warriors on the door—not as a formality, as a practicality. A wounded Alpha in a room was still an Alpha.She went at 0630, after the medical team had assessed him.He was sitting on the floor against the far wall with a bandage on his right shoulder and a split above his eye that had been stitched. He'd shifted back from wolf form during the fight and taken a significant hit to the shoulder before Damoew had brought him down.He

  • The Luna With Ruin   Chapter 124: Ash Crossing

    They came at 0300.Not four days. Not two days.Thirty-six hours after Fenwick called.The scouts at the eastern ridge sent the signal at 0247—three short bursts on the radio, the code for confirmed movement, large force, eastern approach. Jasmina was already in the command room. She'd slept in two-hour intervals since the briefing and she'd been awake for the last one.She picked up the main radio."Stefan.""I have it." His voice was alert and flat. "They're moving fast. He accelerated.""Crossing team in position?""Confirmed at 0215." He'd positioned them early. Of course he had. "Eastern woodland second line confirmed at 0230."She stood up and looked at the map.Ash Crossing was four kilometers from the main compound. In the silence before a battle four kilometers felt like nothing."Numbers?" she said.A pause—he was listening to something else. "Scout says 180 minimum. Could be 200. They're coming in column, not spread."Column formation for a river crossing. They'd funnel at

  • The Luna With Ruin   Chapter 123: Before

    The briefing ran at seven in the evening. Not just the leadership—everyone. Warriors, alliance fighters, support staff, the senior women's council members who weren't on the warrior roster but would be managing civilian movement if the compound came under pressure. Two hundred and forty people in the main yard.Jasmina stood at the center.She didn't use notes."Three days ago I received intelligence that Gareth of Ironwood was accelerating his timeline," she said. Her voice carried across the yard the way it always carried now. "This morning the last piece of his coalition defected. By tonight he knows that." She looked out at the yard. "He'll move. Probably within forty-eight to ninety-six hours."The yard was very quiet."You know what's at stake," she said. "We've held this territory twice. The third time is different. He's not coming with a coalition that has political standing to lose. He's coming with contracted warriors and Ironwo

  • The Luna With Ruin   Chapter 122: Sunday

    Sunday came cold and clear.Jasmina was in the office at eight. Elara had the morning brief at nine but she'd moved it—told Elara to push it to eleven, she needed the morning.She sat at the desk and worked through the supply line documentation Jetstar had been building. It was thorough—six weeks of elevated operation covered, formal agreements with four of the six alliance Alphas already signed, two more pending. She signed the pages that needed her signature and set them in the return folder.She looked at the radio.Fenwick had said Sunday. She hadn't said what time.She worked.---The call came at ten-seventeen.Fenwick's voice was different from Friday—more resolved. The tiredness still there but under it something that had settled."I talked to my senior council," she said."And?""They want what I want." A pause. "They also want my word that you can deliver the recognition. Not a promise—a realistic assessment.""Realistic assessment: I've supported two recognition applications

  • The Luna With Ruin   Chapter 121 : The Call

    Fenwick called on a Friday evening. Jasmina was in the nursery. Kira had been fussy for the past hour—not magic, just a baby having a bad evening—and she was walking her slowly around the room while Damoew sat in the corner chair with the patience of a man who had learned that sometimes the walking was the only thing.The radio on the side table crackled.Jetstar's voice: "Alpha Supreme. There's a call on the direct line. She says her name is Fenwick."Jasmina stopped walking.Damoew was already on his feet, hands out, taking Kira without being asked.She went to the radio.---Fenwick's voice was not what she'd expected.She'd built a picture from the intelligence reports—an isolationist Alpha, twenty-plus years managing Harrow's neutrality, deliberate and careful and hard to read. She'd expected someone guarded.Fenwick sounded tired."Alpha Supreme," she said."Alpha Fenwick." Jasmina kept her voice neutral. "I wasn't expecting this call.""I know." A pause. "I heard about the Gree

  • The Luna With Ruin   Chapter 120 : Greenveil

    Ord called on a Wednesday. Not his Beta, not an intermediary. Ord himself, direct line, which meant he'd either done his research and found the Alpha Supreme's administrative channel or someone had given it to him. From the way Vincent had been working the situation, she suspected the latter.He introduced himself—Alpha of Greenveil Pack, sixty-one years established, affiliate council status. His voice was the voice of a man in his late forties who was holding himself very carefully."I know about your support letter for our recognition application," he said."Good.""I want to understand why."She'd expected this. "Because your territory is being used as a payment promise in a conflict you withdrew from. You deserve protection that matches the situation you're in."A pause. "We withdrew quietly. We didn't make a statement.""I know.""Gareth—he hasn't taken any action against us directly. Not yet." Ord's voice was careful. "I'm concerned that talking to you changes that.""Talking t

  • The Luna With Ruin   Chapter 36: The Baby's Power

    Jasmina's four-month checkup with the healers did not go well. "The baby's magic is growing," Senna said, examining Jasmina's stomach with both hands and magical sensing. "Stronger every week." "Is that bad?" Jasmina asked. "It's unprecedented. We've n

  • The Luna With Ruin   Chapter 35: Damoew's First Success

    The storm hit on Damoew's third week in the Outcast Lands.Wind tore through the camp like claws. Rain hammered the tents. Thunder shook the ground.Damoew woke to water pouring through his leaking tent. Again. He'd learned to sleep on the driest corner of his mat.Outs

  • The Luna With Ruin   Chapter 33: The Rumors Begin

    Two weeks into her reign as Alpha Supreme, Jasmina received disturbing news from the border patrols. "They crossed three times this week," the patrol leader, a wolf named Stefan, reported. "Always the same excuse. 'We didn't realize we'd crossed the border.'" Jasmina

  • The Luna With Ruin   Chapter 32: Damoew in Outcast Lands - Day 1

    The Outcast Lands smelled like rain and desperation.Damoew stood at the edge of the main camp, watching wolves move through the settlement. Forty-three of them. All exiled. All because of him."This way," Dax said, leading him deeper into the camp.The settlement was larger than Damoew expected. T
