MasukThe duel had reached its most dangerous point.At the center of the ruined arena stood Desmond, alone, victorious, or at least, that was how it appeared.Blood streaked across his skin and fur from the brutal battle, his chest rising heavily with exhaustion, but despite his injuries, he remained upright while both Eugene and Leonard struggled on the ground.The sight filled Seraphina with overwhelming relief. A shaky breath escaped her lips as she slowly sank back into her seat.“He’s standing…” she whispered.Beside her, Ava looked almost ecstatic.“I told you Alpha Desmond would survive this” Ava said excitedly. Seraphina smiled.Ava grabbed Seraphina’s arm tightly, practically trembling with excitement.“This is perfect. Now he can kill both of them” Ava whispered quickly. Seraphina didn’t answer immediately. Her eyes slowly moved toward Eugene and despite herself, a small cruel satisfaction curled inside her.Becca’s side of the arena felt entirely different. The atmosphere ther
Dust lingered thickly in the air where Eugene had crashed onto the ground moments earlier, the particles drifting slowly through the fading light.Becca’s heart stopped as her body leaned forward instinctively.“Eugene…”The whisper barely left her lips. Beside her, Mira looked equally horrified.“No…”Max had already taken two steps toward the arena before Jack grabbed his arm hard.“You can’t,” Jack warned sharply.Max jerked against him violently.“Let go of me!”“You interfere and the duel becomes meaningless!”“I don’t care!”Max’s eyes were wild now. Seeing Eugene on the ground, not moving was painful.Jack tightened his grip despite the conflict flashing in his own face.“You have to trust him,” he said through clenched teeth.Max looked ready to rip free anyway then he saw Eugene’s claws moving against the dirt.A collective exhale swept through parts of the crowd and Becca nearly collapsed in relief. Her knees weakened so badly Mira had to steady her.“He’s alive,” Mira whisp
The arena no longer sounded like a place hosting a duel, it sounded like war.The growls of wolves echoed like thunder against the stone walls, blending with the horrified gasps of the crowd and the violent crashes that shook the very ground beneath everyone’s feet.Dust hung thickly in the air now, stirred constantly by the monstrous force of three powerful Alphas tearing across the battlefield.But despite there being three Alphas, it no longer felt like an even fight because Alpha Leonard stood above the others like big force.His aura still flooded the arena with suffocating pressure, so overwhelming that many weaker wolves could barely keep their heads up. Some spectators had retreated farther back instinctively, unable to withstand the crushing dominance pouring from him.And at the center of that nightmare, Eugene and Desmond were struggling badly.Another deafening crash shook the arena as Leonard’s massive wolf slammed into Desmond again, throwing him violently across the dir
The ground was breaking apart beneath them. Dust exploded into the air with every impact, stones cracking under monstrous force as the duel descended fully into chaos.One second Eugene was lunging forward with terrifying speed, claws tearing through the air toward Leonard’s throat, the next, Leonard twisted with unnatural precision and slammed his body into Eugene hard enough to shake the entire arena.Gasps erupted from every side.The force of the collision sent Eugene flying backward, his claws digging into the earth as he fought to stabilize himself.Leonard barely moved afterward. His massive wolf stood tall amidst the dust, his golden eyes glowing with frightening intensity.“Moon Goddess…” Mira whispered from the stands.Beside her, Becca’s fingers tightened around the edge of her seat. She could feel Eugene’s struggle, even from here.here.Her heart hammered painfully against her ribs but she refused to look away.Across the field, Max stood rigidly near the edge of the arena
The air had changed. It was no longer just heavy, it was suffocating.The kind of tension that settled deep into the bones, making every breath feel sharper, every heartbeat louder. The crowd had gone quieter now, their earlier murmurs fading into a low, restless hum because this was the moment.At the center of the grounds, Eugene stood tall. Max stepped closer to him, his presence steady, grounding. For once, the usual sarcasm that clung to him was gone. Max placed a firm hand on Eugene’s shoulder.“Hey,” he said quietly.Eugene glanced at him and Max held his gaze.“This is it.”Eugene nodded once.“I know.”Max exhaled slowly.“Listen… I’ve said everything I can say already and gou probably ignored half of it anyway” he began. A small smirk flickered on his lips as Eugene huffed a quiet laugh.“I didn’t ignore it.”Max raised a brow.“Sure you didn’t.”A brief silence followed then Max’s expression shifted again.“You’re stronger than both of them,” he said.Eugene didn’t respo
Every eye in the arena fixed on the entrance of Alpha Leonard, every breath slowed, every heartbeat seemed to echo louder in the chest and then the soldiers walked in.Rows upon rows of soliders marched in perfect formation, their armor gleamed under the fading light, their movements synchronized, disciplined and deadly. Each step landed with a quiet thud that rippled through the ground, a reminder of their sheer number and unity.They were not like ordinary pack warriors, they were trained and they carried his presence with them.The murmurs in the crowd began instantly.Max’s jaw tightened as he watched.“They came ready for war,” he muttered.Eugene didn’t respond, his eyes remained fixed forward because behind the soldiers came someone far more imposing.Alpha Leonard didn’t rush as he walked forward.Every step he took carried weight, authority radiating from him like an invisible force that pressed against the chest of everyone watching. His eyes swept across the grounds once
The heavy doors of the Wolf Council Hall had barely clicked shut behind them when Alpha Desmond slammed his fist against the corridor wall, the crack echoing through the ancient stone like a war drum. A tapestry fluttered from the impact, dust billowing in the air. Luna Seraphina walked ahead, he
The moon sat high and heavy in the dark sky, its silver light filling the Vargus pack like an ancient, watchful eye. The sharp chill of night crept into the bones of the stone buildings, but the inside of the fortress pulsed with the warmth of fire and the dim golden flicker of lanterns. The day
A chilling silence blanketed the void that seemed to envelope the entire environment and stretched as far as the eyes could see.Darkness went on for infinitely in every direction, suffocating and cold. There was no sky, no ground, just the feel of nothingness pressing in from all sides. And with
Mira’s eyes were wide with urgency, her chest heaving from the speed of her steps. She barely gave Becca time to speak before gripping her wrist tightly.“Becca,” she whispered, her voice barely louder than a breath. “You won’t believe it. I was cleaning the room like you asked, just keeping thing
