Semua Bab THE ALPHA'S LAST CHOICE : Bab 71 - Bab 80

Rowan’s scream tore through the sanctuary as the black mist exploded from his body, throwing him across the stone floor with enough force to crack the tiles beneath him. I stood frozen, staring at the place where he had fallen while the First Flame inside my chest burned hotter than it ever had before. Then I heard it again, faint but unmistakable, the voice that had followed me through dreams I had never understood. “Selena.” My heart stopped as I turned toward the ancient altar, because the voice had not come from Rowan or any of the people standing around me. The First Flame suddenly rose higher, twisting into a column of crimson light that illuminated the entire sanctuary. Beneath my feet, something answered with a low vibration, and a glowing crimson seal slowly appeared across the floor. I stepped toward it despite Damian reaching for my arm, because every instinct inside me was telling me that I needed to see what was beneath that seal. The symbols began moving in circles, co

The Devourer’s words echoed through the sanctuary, and for several seconds, I could not move or even breathe. The First Flame inside my chest remained strangely silent, leaving behind a cold emptiness that frightened me more than its burning ever had. I stared into the darkness where the creature stood, trying to understand what it meant by remembering who I was.“What prison?” I asked, forcing the words through my dry throat. The Devourer smiled, revealing sharp teeth beneath its blackened face. “The one your mother sealed when she gave you away,” it replied, and the ancient bitterness in its voice made the hairs on my arms rise.My father immediately stepped forward, and the ground trembled beneath his feet as he raised one hand toward the creature. “Enough,” he said, his voice carrying across the sanctuary with a force that made even the flames along the walls flicker. Silver energy burst from his palm and struck the Devourer across the chest, sending it crashing through a broken pi

I screamed as the power surged through my veins, forcing everyone around me backward. The Devourer stopped moving, its crimson eyes fixed on me with something that looked almost like recognition. “You finally remember,” it whispered.“I don't remember you,” I said, shaking my head as the creature's smile widened. It tilted its head, studying me as though it could see memories buried somewhere even I could not reach. “You will,” it whispered.A sharp pain tore through my skull, and another vision flooded my mind. I saw my mother standing beneath a blood-red moon with a newborn child in her arms, while my father stood beside her with blood covering his silver body. Then I heard my mother's terrified voice. “Hide her from him.”The vision shattered, and I opened my eyes to find Damian kneeling beside me with one hand gripping my shoulder. My father's expression had changed completely, because he was staring at me with a fear I had never seen in his eyes before. Then Rowan suddenly stepped

The ancient howl rolled through the mountain, shaking dust from the ceiling and making every wolf in the sanctuary lower their heads. I felt the sound inside my bones, and the power flowing through my veins suddenly became difficult to control. Damian reached for my hand, but before his fingers touched mine, a violent force threw him across the sanctuary.“Damian!” I screamed as he crashed against the stone wall. Marcus rushed toward him while Aleric raised his sword, but another tremor forced everyone to stop. Vaelgor remained completely still, staring upward as though he could hear something the rest of us could not.“He is coming,” Vaelgor said. His voice was quieter than before, and that frightened me more than his anger had. “The creator of the curse has finally awakened.”The Devourer pulled against its silver chains, but instead of trying to escape, it lowered its head and began trembling. I stared at the creature in confusion because it had never shown fear like this before. “W

The Hollow King's enormous hand reached toward me, and every instinct inside my body screamed for me to run. I tried to move, but my legs refused to obey as the creature's silver cracks began glowing brighter. Damian stepped in front of me and raised his claws, but Vaelgor grabbed his shoulder and pulled him back.“Don't touch it,” Vaelgor warned. His eyes remained fixed on the Hollow King as he tightened his grip around his sword. “That creature doesn't need to touch Selena to take her power.” My heart pounded as I stared at the thing that had called me daughter.The Hollow King stopped inches away from me. A strange warmth spread through my body, replacing the fear that had filled me moments earlier. I suddenly heard hundreds of voices whispering inside my mind, speaking names, memories, and stories that belonged to people who had lived long before I was born.I saw ancient forests filled with silver wolves. I saw kingdoms rising beneath blood-red moons, and I saw a woman standing be
