The night had finally quieted after the fight. The forest smelled of smoke and blood, the ground dark where the battle had spilled. Damien stood with his chest heaving, his claws still stained, his golden eyes glowing faintly in the moonlight.

Lyra knelt beside him, one hand pressed to his side where claws had torn deep. Her magic glimmered faintly, silver and soft, but even she could see it was not enough. His skin knit slowly, the wound refusing to close, as if some darkness fought against her healing.

“Stay with me,” she whispered, her voice breaking as tears filled her eyes.

Damien gritted his teeth, his hand catching hers. “I am not leaving you. Not now. Not ever.”

But his voice was weak, and Lyra felt panic claw at her chest. She pressed harder, pouring more of her energy into him, even as it burned through her body and left her shaking.

Then, a small hand touched hers. Lyra turned, startled, to see Isla standing close, her wide eyes glowing faintly in the dark. The child had sl

  • The Luna's Secret Heir    The Choice She Couldn’t Escape

    The council meeting ended without a true decision, only a storm of tension left hanging in the air. The pack dispersed in uneasy clusters, their voices sharp whispers that scraped against Elena’s ears. She didn’t need to hear the words to know what they meant. Their glances told her everything—fear, suspicion, doubt.She stayed seated near the back even after the last wolf left the cavern, her hands curled into her lap, her chest aching as if a stone sat upon it. The fire inside her pulsed faintly, hot and restless, like a wild thing that refused to sleep.“Do not listen to them.”Lucian’s voice cut through the silence. He stepped toward her, broad shoulders casting long shadows against the stone. His eyes held the kind of steady strength that had always calmed her, but tonight even that wasn’t enough.“They’re afraid,” he admitted, crouching down so their eyes met. His hand brushed her arm, warm and grounding. “But fear doesn’t make them right. You are not their curse, Elena. You are

  • The Luna's Secret Heir    The Council Divided

    The morning light barely touched the mouth of the cave when Lucian called the council together. The fire from the night before had left scars on the land and on the hearts of his people. Smoke still lingered in the distance, carried on the wind, a bitter reminder of what had happened.Inside the cavern, the atmosphere was thick with tension. The elders sat in a half-circle, their faces shadowed and grim. Warriors and hunters lined the edges of the space, their eyes sharp, their voices hushed. Every glance seemed to carry the same unspoken question: What do we do with her?Elena sat near the back, shoulders hunched, trying to make herself smaller. She could feel the weight of every stare, every whisper. Her skin burned, not from fire this time, but from shame.Lucian stood in the center, his presence commanding, his voice calm but edged with steel.“We survived the flames because we stood together,” he began, his gaze sweeping over the pack. “But let us be clear—the flames were not an

  • The Luna's Secret Heir    Whispers of Fear

    The cave was quiet except for the sound of dripping water and the low growls of wolves standing guard at the entrance. The air was heavy with smoke that had followed them from the battlefield, mixed with the sharp tang of blood and wet fur.Elena slept again, her body curled against Lucian’s chest, her breathing shallow but steady. She looked fragile in his arms, like a flame that could be snuffed out with the faintest wind. Lucian tightened his hold on her, as if by sheer will he could keep her from slipping away.But outside, the pack was restless.Whispers traveled through the cave, soft at first, then louder when they thought he could not hear. Words he hated.“She burned them alive.”“Did you see her eyes? They glowed like fire.”“Maybe she’s not even a wolf. Maybe she’s something else.”Lucian’s golden eyes snapped open, rage tightening in his chest. He wanted to silence them all, but he knew fear had already taken root. If he roared now, if he showed his anger, it would only ma

  • The Luna's Secret Heir    Shadows in the Dream

    The pack moved through the night like ghosts. Their paws sank into mud and ash as they left the ruined battlefield behind. The air smelled of smoke and death, and though no one spoke, the silence carried its own weight—grief, fear, and questions no one dared to ask.Lucian led them, carrying Elena in his arms. She had not woken since the fire burst from her, her body heavy and limp against him. Her breathing was steady but shallow, as though she were caught between sleep and something deeper.Every step was agony for Lucian. Not because of his own wounds, he hardly felt them—but because of the way she looked. Pale, fragile, as if she were slipping further away with each passing hour. He kept his grip firm, his jaw tight, his eyes burning with determination. He would not lose her.Behind him, the pack trailed. Wolves limped, some supported by others. A few carried the fallen across their backs, refusing to leave them behind. No one dared break the silence. Only the soft howls of grief

  • The Luna's Secret Heir    After the Fire

    The forest was silent. Too silent.Smoke curled into the night sky, black and heavy, hiding the stars. The battlefield that had been alive with snarls and screams only moments ago now lay in ruin. Trees were scorched, the earth cracked open, and the smell of ash mixed with blood filled the air.Bodies—wolves, hunters, even some of their own—were scattered across the clearing. Some groaned, struggling to rise. Others did not move at all.At the center of it all, Lucian held Elena in his arms.Her head rested against his chest, her skin pale, her lips trembling as if she were fighting for breath. The faint glow from her hands had vanished, but he could still feel the warmth inside her, burning low like embers under ash.“Elena… stay with me,” he whispered, his voice breaking. His bloodied fingers brushed her hair back, leaving streaks of red across her face.Her lashes fluttered, her eyes half-open. “Lucian…”He leaned close, desperate to hear her, desperate for anything.“I… I did not

  • The Luna's Secret Heir    The Fire Within

    The battlefield was chaos. Wolves and hunters clashed in a blur of claws and steel, snarls cutting through the night like thunder. The scent of blood mixed with smoke and rain, heavy and suffocating. Bodies rolled across the mud, growls echoed through the trees, and sparks flew as blades struck stone and bone alike.But in the middle of it all, Elena stood frozen. Her heart pounded so violently it felt as if it would tear her ribs apart. The world spun around her, but she could see only two things—Lucian fighting like a beast unleashed, and the crimson-eyed stranger who never once looked away from her.Her hands shook violently as that strange fire spread through her veins. It was not just warmth anymore. It was a storm, a living thing clawing at her insides, begging to be free. The glow pulsed faintly through her fingertips, as though her skin was too thin to hold it back.Lucian tore through another enemy and whipped his head toward her, his golden eyes blazing.“Elena!” he roared o
