Semua Bab Rejected mythical Luna: Bab 101 - Bab 110

Aries – POVThe journey to the Association grounds didn’t take long, thanks to our small group and the efficiency of our pace. Lilly had made sure everything was prepped before we left, and Robin had discreetly included some of the former banished warriors among the guards. Smart move, considering how uncertain this trip already felt.Still, all I wanted was to get this over with and return to Rex. Even my wolf had been restless the entire journey, his instincts clawing at the edges of my mind like a caged animal sensing something was wrong. But there wasn’t much I could do,yet.“Are we going straight to the meeting room?” I asked Lilly as we approached the pack’s main entrance.“According to Regal’s update, the meeting won’t start until tomorrow morning,” she replied. “So we’re expected to settle into our accommodations first.”“No formal greeting from Alpha Levon?” I asked, frowning.She shook her head. “None.”That was odd. A meeting of this magnitude, and not even the courtesy of

Rex POVI couldn’t think.My body moved on instinct, tearing through the blazing field, shielding Rose behind me. Smoke choked the air, thick and suffocating, turning the world into a blur of fire and screams. But I didn’t stop. I couldn’t.I had to protect them,all of them.“Julian!” I yelled over the chaos, barely dodging a fireball. “Have the attackers been identified?”“No!” he shouted back. “There’s nobody here, at least not on the ground!”What? Fireballs were being hurled like rain, but no enemy was in sight. My eyes scanned wildly. Where the hell were they attacking from?Another fireball sliced through the smoke, aimed straight for us. I yanked Rose away, shielding her as we ducked just in time.“Rex,” she said, voice trembling, “my mom and dad are already moving people to the safe house. They’ll be done soon.”I didn’t even know we had a damn safe house, but thank the Moon we did.“You should go help them,” I told her, gripping her shoulders. “I’ll make sure you get there sa

Aries' POV I didn’t know where I was heading, but I just walked. Past the fields where fires were still being put out, through the warriors gathering the bodies, and past everyone who stood aside silently watching me.I had let them take her away from me again.And this time, it wasn’t just her.If I hadn’t been so gullible… if I’d just thought to confirm the summit with the other Alphas, I never would’ve left the pack vulnerable to such a cheap, dirty trap.Was I even worthy of being called Alpha? The wrecked bodies, the smoke-stained skies, and the nearly destroyed pack house said otherwise. Loudly.I had sent Lilly out to search for them. As much as I wanted to run into that forest myself and tear it apart tree by tree, I couldn’t leave the pack behind. Not again. Not when they needed me more than ever.So all I could do… was wait. Wait for news. For a sign.“Aries,” my father called, approaching cautiously.“What is it, Dad?” I asked, finally coming to a stop.“The damage to the

Rex’s POV Standing between what looked like ordinary trees while Robin, barely clinging to consciousness chanted in the Banished tongue felt unreal.The enemy was close, far too close, yet here we were, waiting. Julian kept Robin upright while Rose stood close beside me, her hand brushing mine like she was ready to steady me if I faltered.Finally, Robin’s eyes fluttered open. “Do you… want to open the barrier?” he rasped, his tired gaze locking on mine.“What do I need to do?” I asked, desperate to get them all to safety.“A drop of your blood,” he said softly.I didn’t hesitate. I grabbed Julian’s blade and sliced my palm. The sting lasted only a second before the wound began to knit itself back together. “Now what?”“Place your hand… on the tree.” He nodded weakly.I stepped forward and pressed my bloody palm against the bark.Nothing.Panic flared in my chest. Was I not Banished enough? Was I not one of them? Doubt clawed at my mind, until the tree began to glow.Light bled from

Rex’s POV Just one word.That single word from Robin was enough to make every single one of them fall to their knees, no hesitation, no questions.It hit me then just how much that name, Elegida meant to them.They all stretched their hands forward, their fingers forming a strange, star-like gesture as they bowed their heads fully.I stood frozen.What was I supposed to do? I had never introduced myself to anyone this way, especially not to people who apparently saw me as the answer to a prophecy.Moon, I wish Aries was here.He’d know exactly what to say.The thought of him made my chest ache. I could only hope he was safe. I prayed he knew I was okay, too.“Say something,” Julian muttered beside me, nudging my shoulder.I realized I’d been silent far too long. My gaze swept over them, all still kneeling. Even Zane, their second-in-command, was down on one knee, eyes fixed on the ground.“Rise,” I said, my voice shaky.They didn’t move.I didn’t need this. I wasn’t sure I deserved i
