All Chapters of Eventual Luna: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Elena's POVThe sun cracked through the edge of the curtains, brightening the room. Warm, golden light spilled across the room. I lay there for a moment, staring at the ceiling. My heart beat a little quicker than usual.Today was different. Today meant something. For the first time in a while, I had something I really looked forward to. I threw off the sheets and sat up at once. I ran my fingers through my hair, then pressed them against my chest, right over my heart.Could I really do this? Could I really let out that wolf inside me after all these years? Aria believed I could, she was so confident, but I'm notShe said it was buried inside me, caged by pain I’d carried since I was a child. That the wolf wasn’t gone.. It just waiting.I got dressed quickly, barely containing my excitement. I had something to believe in, something that made me feel like maybe I belonged in this world of warriors, of wolves. I pulled my hair back into a loose ponytail, grabbed a flask of wate

Elena POV The knock on my door came loudand fast.“Elena, up! We’ve got work to do!” I heard Aria’s loud voice. I groaned. “Why so early?” I mumbled, but I was already pulling the sheets off.I slid my legs into my slippers, dragged my feet to the door. By the time I opened the door, she was standing there with a determined. “Dress warm. We’re heading deeper into the woods.”What?! “Why..”“And bring anything of your mother's too.”She didn’t wait for a reply. She turned on her heel and was gone.Anything of my mother's? What was Aria up to? I got dressed quickly and marched downstairs. Aria was waiting at the usually usual place. The far end of the training fields. I met her and without much hesitation we walked into the forest. The forest was quieter than usual. Aria didn’t say much, and I didn’t ask questions. I could tell this was different from before. The Memory Run had cracked something open in me. And now, whatever we were doing today… it was about facing what came

Zaphyr’s POVThe morning sun filtered through the windows of the White Snow pack house. I was seated in front of my oak desk, my head buried to the paper in front of me, going over the latest patrol reports. It had been a quiet morning, just the way I preferred it.To be honest, that's how it's been for a while now. Then the door flung open.“Zaphyr!” Lucy's loud voice rang out, too high-pitched. My head snapped up as she strode in, her eyes shining with excitement.“What is it?” I asked, instantly on guard. Good news and Lucy rarely came without strings attached.She walked quickly toward me, barely containing herself. “You won’t believe it. I just received word from… Crystal. She’s alive.”I stared at her. “What?”She nodded quickly, a smile spreading across her face. “She’s alive. And not just that… she’s with the Shadow Blood pack. With Alpha Thorne.”I froze. The name struck something deep in my chest. That familiar sting of rage returned almost instantly.I stood up slowly,

Ryan's POVIn the chamber room, Trevor and I sat across from each other, the silence between us weighed down by the same heavy thought.Crystal, yet again.Trevor leaned forward, elbows on the table, his brow furrowed deep. "She's not just with the Shadow Blood pack anymore. Our source says she’s riding to the White Snow pack as we speak."I exhaled slowly, my jaw tightening. "So it’s true."He nodded once. "With Thorne and a handful of his warriors. It's not for war, but still…"I exhaled slowly. “They’re trying to forge alliances.”"Exactly." Trevor’s voice was hard. "And if they get the White Snow pack on their side…""They won’t," I cut in, sharper than I intended. I met his eyes. "Zaphyr is many things, but he’s not stupid. He hates Thorne’s kind. Always has. He won’t bend the knee to them."Trevor gave me a strange look. Then he spoke. "Zaphyr also has a stepdaughter. One he raised under his roof for years. One who’s now claiming she was betrayed and cast out." He paused. "O

Ryan POVI stayed by the porch a few minutes longer, letting everything all sink in. Even though my body was tired, my mind just kept replaying every moment of Elena’s shift, from the look in her eyes to her figure, the dire wolf, the rarest werewolf species of all.She had no idea how rare and how powerful she was.I finally forced myself to move, stepping off the porch and then walking toward the war room. I had told Trevor to wait for me in the war room. I also figured Aria would already be there too. Knowing her well, she would never missed anything important as this, and sure enough, when I pushed the door open, she and Trevor were seated around the long oak table.They both looked up immediately.“She did it,” I said simply, my voice laced with a tinge of pride.And why not? My fated mate is now a dire wolf. Aria’s face broke into a smile. “I knew she would,” she said, rising from her seat and coming over to me. “How is she?”"Exhausted," I said, running a hand through my ha
