The Pack Wanted A Bride, The Moon Wanted Revenge. The Silent Village
Vespera's POVThe village was not the only one.We rode for hours, following the trail of destruction. Three more settlements. Three more graveyards. The same pattern. The same empty eyes. The same pale skin. Something was draining the life from our people, and it was moving fast."We need to find out what this is," Rhydian said, his voice tight. "Before it reaches the keep.""We will." I urged my horse faster. "But first, we need to get back. We need to warn the pack. We need to prepare."We rode through the night, the darkness pressing in around us. The moon was hidden behind clouds, and the only light came from the torches we carried. Every shadow seemed to move. Every sound seemed to be a threat.And then, we saw it.A figure. Standing at the edge of the road. Pale. Still. Watching.I pulled my horse to a stop, my hand on my dagger. "Who goes there?"The figure did not answer. It simply stood there, its empty eyes fixed on us."Vespera," Rhydian whispered. "Get back.""No." I dism
The Pack Wanted A Bride, The Moon Wanted Revenge. The Awakening
Vespera's POVThe warmth in my chest grew stronger.I sat in the silence of the early morning, Rhydian still asleep beside me, and I focused on that flicker of life inside me. My wolf. She was there. Faint. Distant. But there."Come back to me," I whispered. "Please. Come back to me."I felt her stir. A flicker of recognition. A whisper of warmth. She was trying to reach me, just as I was trying to reach her. But something was holding her back. Something was keeping her from fully waking.I needed help.I dressed quickly and made my way to Tressa's hut. The old seer was already awake, sitting by the fire, her ancient eyes fixed on the flames."You felt her," Tressa said before I could speak."Yes. She is still there. Inside me. But she is sleeping. I cannot wake her."Tressa nodded slowly. "The Wraith King's darkness wounded her deeply. She retreated to the deepest part of your soul to heal. She is not gone, but she is weak.""How do I wake her?""You must enter the spirit realm again
The Pack Wanted A Bride, The Moon Wanted Revenge. The Wounds That Remain
Vespera's POVI could not shift.The realization hit me three days after I destroyed the Wraith King. I had been resting, recovering, letting my body heal from the ordeal. But when I tried to shift, to let my wolf rise, there was nothing.Just silence. Just emptiness."No," I whispered, trying again. "No, no, no."But my wolf did not answer. She was gone. Lost somewhere in the darkness I had barely escaped.Rhydian found me on the floor of our chambers, trembling, tears streaming down my face."What happened?" He knelt beside me, his hands on my shoulders. "Vespera, what is wrong?""My wolf. She is gone."He stared at me, his face pale. "What do you mean?""I cannot shift. I cannot feel her. She is gone."He pulled me into his arms, holding me tight. "We will find a way to bring her back.""How? I have lost her before, and I found her again. But this time... this time feels different.""We will find a way. We always do."I wanted to believe him. I wanted to believe that everything wou
The Pack Wanted A Bride, The Moon Wanted Revenge. The Wraith King
Vespera's POVThe Wraith King was waiting for me.I knew it the moment I stepped into the circle of stones. The air was cold. Not the natural cold of a winter night. Something deeper. Something older. Something that smelled of death and decay and ancient hunger."Vespera Vale," a voice echoed through the darkness. "I have been waiting for you."I turned, and I saw him.He was not what I expected. Not a monster. Not a demon. Just a man. Tall and pale, with eyes like empty voids and a smile that promised nothing but pain. He wore a crown of bones on his head, and around him, the dead stood waiting."You are the Wraith King.""I am. And you are the woman who has been causing me so much trouble.""I am the woman who is going to destroy you."He laughed, a sound like breaking bones. "Destroy me? You cannot destroy me. I am death itself. I am the end of all things. I am eternal.""Nothing is eternal. Not even death.""We shall see."He raised his hand, and the dead surged forward.I reached
