Thaila’s POV

I waited for them to touch me, push me, maybe even carry me to their king as he had demanded, but they didn't. And that felt wrong.

A hundred starving creatures were circling us, breathing rot into the air. Their hollow eyes fixed on me like I was the only warmth left in a dying world — and yet none of them lunged.

None of them clawed, reached out for me or even tried to tear me apart.

They studied me instead, fully on alert yet making no moves.

  • The Luna who rose from the flames    Chapter 33: The cold that devoured demons

    Thaila’s POV I waited for them to touch me, push me, maybe even carry me to their king as he had demanded, but they didn't. And that felt wrong. A hundred starving creatures were circling us, breathing rot into the air. Their hollow eyes fixed on me like I was the only warmth left in a dying world — and yet none of them lunged. None of them clawed, reached out for me or even tried to tear me apart. They studied me instead, fully on alert yet making no moves. “They're waiting for you to run,” Kael said through gritted teeth. “If you try to escape, it's over.” I nodded, fully getting the message. Then one of them moved, followed by another. The same way they came. The circle parted slowly and soundlessly, forming a narrow path through the snow as like they were making way for royalty… or sacrifice. “Walk,” Kael said under his breath. I didn’t move, my legs felt stuck to the ground where I stood. “Thaila,” Kael added, quieter this time, and there was something s

  • The Luna who rose from the flames    Chapter 32: Summoned

    Thaila's Pov It was indeed a werewolf, but its skull was laying a few feet away from its body, half-hidden beneath frost. Its human shape was unmistakable but also wrong. The jaw was warped. The teeth were too long and sharper than natural. The bones, scraped and gnawed. My stomach tightened. “What happened here?” I asked quietly. Kael crouched beside the remains. His expression shifted into something unreadable. “Starvation,” he said. My head snapped towards him, horrified at the implication of what he was saying. “Wolves don’t eat wolves.” He slowly looked at me, his eyes filled with empathy and pain. “Desperate ones do.” I stared at the carcass, trying to wrap my head around it when a sudden sound tore through the silence. It was soft and distant. Like something was gentle stepping on snow. I straightened immediately, my wolf going on full alert. “We’re not alone,” she growled, extending my claw. I scanned the trees for any signs of danger, nothing. Jus

  • The Luna who rose from the flames    chapter 31: Frostbound Wilds

    Thaila’s POV The question hung in the air. I didn’t answer her because the truth was sitting heavy in my chest. I wasn't ready. I had never been ready for any of this. Not the mating ceremony, not the rejection, not being burned because of my sister, definitely not finding out my hidden bloodline and becoming a target because of it. And now there was the hot demon standing right beside me. Traveling with me and protecting me as we ventured into dangerous territories like he belonged at my side. “Are you alright?” Kael asked, distracting me from my thoughts. “Yes I am, why?” “You've just been a little bit quiet, that's all.” He asked with concern. I looked down and our hands were still intertwined. I quickly left his hands. “I'm good.” I replied, but that was a big lie. I was far from good. There was a shifting in the atmosphere as we moved farther away from the river. The breeze that had cooled my skin just moments ago began to fade, replaced by something sharper and c

  • The Luna who rose from the flames    Chapter 33: The cold that devoured demons

    Thaila’s POV They didn’t touch us. That was the first thing that felt wrong. A hundred starving creatures, circling, breathing rot into the air, their hollow eyes fixed on me like I was the only warmth left in a dying world — and yet none of them lunged. None of them clawed. None of them tried to tear me apart. They only watched. And then they moved. The circle parted slowly, soundlessly, forming a narrow path through the snow as if an invisible hand had commanded them to make way. “Walk,” Kael said under his breath. I didn’t move. “Thaila,” he added, quieter this time, and there was something strained in his voice that made my chest tighten. “If we don’t move, they will force us to.” He was right. I could feel their hunger pressing in on my skin like needles. So I stepped forward. The moment I did, the path closed behind us. We were being herded. The deeper we went, the colder it became. Not the kind of cold that simply bit at your skin — this one seeped into bone, int

  • The Luna who rose from the flames    chapter 30: Into the unknown

    Thaila's pov The shadows that wrapped themselves around Kael still scared me. But aside from that, I felt calm, safe and protected. "What are you doing?” My wolf nudged me. “I don't know… what does it look like I'm doing?" I replied back in my head. “Umm… let me see," my wolf said in that sing-song tone that almost irritated me, "making a mistake?” I shot her a glaring look with my inner eyes. “Can you just shut up and heal me?” She gave me a pouting look. “I'll think about it.” “Are you okay?” Kael's voice sounded, interrupting my thoughts. “Yes. I'm just really scared of closed spaces.” I replied. I could feel Kael making a face. “You're lying. You're scared of nothing.” I raised my eyebrow, pretending to be offended. “That's not true. I am scared of your shadows.” “But they wouldn't hurt you.” “Oh you don't know that. I just watched them consume all those witches just before my very eyes.” I shot back, still standing on my point. “Only
