Semua Bab Moonbound Legacy: Bab 51 - Bab 60

The morning fog had barely lifted when Isla stood by the window of the compound’s main hall, gazing out at the distant treeline that marked the beginning of the forest. The air was thick with an eerie silence, the kind that made her skin prickle. There was an unsettling stillness in the pack’s compound now, a collective breath held in anticipation. No one spoke of it, but they all felt it—the rogue wolves were closing in. The full moon was just days away, and the prophecy felt less like myth and more like a ticking clock.She clutched the small journal in her hands, its leather-bound cover still warm from the fire she’d stoked the night before. She had spent hours reading its pages, trying to decipher the cryptic passages her father had written. But some things didn’t make sense. The markings were familiar, the symbols carved into the pages almost as if they were meant to guide her. And yet, each turn of the page left her with more questions than answers.Luca had been quiet that morn

The first wave of rogues came like a storm, crashing through the forest with a ferocity that matched the wildness of their nature. Their eyes glowed with the bloodlust of wolves unbound by any pack, their claws scraping against the earth, their snarls and growls reverberating through the trees. The Crescent Moon pack, prepared and waiting, stood in a tight formation, their bodies tense, their minds sharp. They were ready.But Isla’s heart raced for an entirely different reason.Luca stood at the forefront of the pack, his figure a towering presence against the chaos of the approaching battle. He was the alpha-in-waiting, the one who would lead them through this, but the weight of the responsibility was evident in his eyes. She could see it—the fear, the uncertainty, the same things that had been eating away at her for days. His loyalty to his pack was undeniable, but there was something more now. Something between them that neither of them could ignore.She had never been a warrior. S

The silence that followed Astra’s ominous words was suffocating, thick with the weight of something just beyond reach, something Isla wasn’t ready to understand. The air felt electric, charged with an energy she couldn’t quite grasp but instinctively knew was both dangerous and inevitable.Luca’s hand on her arm was firm, grounding, but even that couldn’t stop the shiver of fear that ran through Isla’s veins. The unease that had settled in her chest since that first night in the clinic was now a full-blown storm inside her, swirling with confusion, doubt, and the gnawing suspicion that nothing in her life had ever truly been what she thought.“Astra,” Luca said, his voice taut with frustration. “Enough with the cryptic warnings. Tell us what’s going on. Who’s coming?”Astra turned her gaze to him, her eyes narrowing with a mixture of understanding and something darker. “You’re not ready for this, Luca. None of you are.” She took a deep breath, her gaze flicking back to Isla, then to t

The night felt like it was holding its breath.Isla stood frozen, her heart still hammering in her chest, the echo of Kael’s words ringing in her ears. They lingered in the air like a dark fog, suffocating everything around her. She couldn’t shake the feeling that everything had changed—everything she had known, everything she had believed about herself and her father. And yet, in the midst of it all, Luca stood beside her, his presence solid and unyielding, a reminder that there was something worth fighting for.She glanced at him, trying to read his expression. His jaw was clenched, his eyes scanning the trees, the shadows where Kael had disappeared. He was still on high alert, still processing everything, and for a moment, Isla wanted nothing more than to reach out to him, to let him know that she wasn’t scared of him—just scared, period.But she held herself back. She had to. Luca was still a mystery to her, even if his presence had been oddly comforting in these moments of chaos.

The weight of the past few days felt like a storm cloud hanging overhead, threatening to burst at any moment. Isla could feel the tension in the air, as if something—someone—was waiting for the right moment to strike. Despite Luca’s assurances, despite his protective presence by her side, the unease still crept into her bones, gnawing at her. She couldn’t shake the feeling that they were being pulled into something much bigger than either of them could have anticipated.After the confrontation with Kael, Isla had spent the night restless, caught between fragments of strange dreams and even stranger revelations. Her father’s disappearance, the prophecy, the mark—everything was starting to weave itself into a tapestry she wasn’t sure she was ready to understand.Now, as the morning light filtered through the clinic’s windows, Isla stood at her father’s old desk, absently sorting through patient files. Her mind wasn’t on the animals she’d treated that week, nor the prescriptions she’d be
