Semua Bab Rejected mythical Luna: Bab 121 - Bab 130

Rex’s POV I stepped out of the room with Julian at my side while the others stayed with Zane. Lilly was tending to Rose, and Aries had pulled Robin aside for a quiet discussion. Me? I just needed air. The walls felt too close, and every time my thoughts wandered to what we planned to attempt tomorrow, my heart stuttered like it already knew the risks. “Are you sure you want to go through with this?” Julian asked once we were far enough away. His voice was light, but his eyes weren’t. “We could just scrap the whole plan, come up with something new. Something safer. Where no one gets hurt.” He added a tiny smile, like he hoped it would soften the weight of his words. “As tempting as that sounds…” I sighed as we sank onto a wooden bench beneath the trees. “You know we don’t have that kind of time.” He didn’t argue, but I kept going. “Aries managed to open the barrier once,with help from the banished Warriors back at the pack. If he could, then Ron could too. All it would take is one

Rex’s POVI stared at the barrier longer than I should have, but nothing stirred in me, no matter how hard I tried. The harder I pushed, the more impossible it felt. Maybe I was reaching too high, thinking I could do this at all.Zane had been at it for nearly thirty minutes, and even with his strength, he’d only managed to make the smallest crack. I should’ve been beside him, helping, but I hadn’t been able to do a thing.“Take a break already,” Aries called out.Zane stopped, turning back to us. Sweat trickled down his chin, exhaustion plain on his face. He nodded and immediately made his way to Rose’s side with a weak smile, while I stayed rooted, staring at the shimmering space.I felt Aries step up beside me, silent at first, his gaze fixed forward like mine.You should give it another try, Ria’s voice pressed into my mind, steady and firm. You can do it, Rex. Then she faded out, leaving only the echo of her words.“What’s on your mind?” Aries finally asked, eyes still on the bar

Rex’s POV The warriors surrounded us once again, spears raised, all because of a single order from their Alpha. They closed in quickly, and I could feel the anxiety rolling off everyone behind me, everyone except Aries, who still stood squarely at my side, his eyes never leaving Braun. I couldn’t think of a single reason Braun would want to imprison us. We had no ties here, no previous encounters. And since they were a halfie pack, they definitely had nothing to do with Ron. So what was it? “What reason do you have to imprison us?” Aries’ voice cut through the chaos, sharp and commanding. “I am an Alpha, demanding nothing but passage. And your answer is to throw us in the dungeons? That’s funny coming from you.” He even chuckled, low and amused. “I can do whatever I want, as long as you’re on my land,” Braun shot back, his frown deepening. “We don’t put too much weight on titles here, Alpha Aries,” he seethed. Aries took a step forward, unwavering, his gaze locked on Braun. “Ok

Rex’s POV The crowd around us had grown thicker, smiles lighting every face as whispers rippled low through the field. My eyes scanned the sea of people until I finally found the face I was looking for.Lucy pushed through the crowd with Alpha Charles at her side, her eyes watery and full of relief.Aries let out a low howl the moment his gaze locked on them. The sound tore from his chest, raw and filled with emotion. I joined him, our howls blending and echoing through the field until it vibrated in my bones.Warriors rushed forward, dropping bundles of clothes at our feet. Aries snatched his with his teeth before retreating into the trees. I followed, shifting back in seconds and tugging the clothes on. When I emerged, Aries was waiting, hand outstretched, eyes softened.“We’re home,” he said with a smile.I clasped his hand, nodding. “Your parents must’ve missed you all.”Julian and Robin came up, already dressed, and Julian smirked. “Pretty sure they missed me the most.” He shove

Rex’s POVThe mention of a joining ceremony took me by surprise. Even if this was my first time living in a pack, I knew exactly what it meant. Just as the name implied, it was when new members were officially welcomed into the pack.It wasn’t something done every passing day. Sometimes a Luna lived in a pack for years before being added through the ceremony. It wasn’t only symbolic; it was binding. It created a link—an invisible tether that let you connect, speak, feel with the others, that mindlink. That bond wasn’t something a pack gave away easily. Which was why the ritual was usually delayed until it was absolutely necessary.But hearing Aries mention it so openly, in front of this many people, told me he wasn’t bluffing. He never did. What I didn’t know was—who exactly was he talking about? Just me? Or all of us from the Banished?The murmurs rippling through the crowd told me I wasn’t the only one asking that question. Aries squeezed my hand, mouthing, We’ll talk later.I nodde
