Chapter 291: Nightwalker Booby TrapXENOIS"There's still a nightwalker left," Riley said, standing abruptly. His voice had gone cold and calculating, every trace of childhood innocence stripped away. "In the house. Hiding. Waiting."Then he was moving, dashing out of the room and down the stairs with speed that made my wolf's hackles rise. Lake followed immediately, leaving Lumina and me to exchange shocked glances before we rushed after them.By the time we reached the main floor, Riley was already in the center of the living room, the orb held high above his head. The smoke was swirling around him—darker now, more substantial, coalescing into something almost solid.And then it moved, faster than I could track. Black smoke shot across the room and grabbed Ollie, who'd been standing near the doorway. My son screamed, and every protective instinct I possessed roared to life.I was moving before conscious thought, ready to tear the smoke apart with my bare hands if necessary, but Rile

Chapter 293: Captured Shadow XENOIS"Damn right I would have," I confirmed. "Because it was reckless and dangerous and you're children who shouldn't be fighting ancient supernatural creatures.""But now you have a prisoner who can give you information," Lake pointed out. "Now you have leverage and intelligence and a chance to understand what you're fighting against. We did that. We gave you that advantage."I wanted to argue, wanted to explain why the ends didn't justify the means, why their safety mattered more than tactical advantages. But looking at their faces—so serious, so certain of their actions—I realized this would be an ongoing conversation, not something I could resolve with a single lecture."Third," I said instead, "I need to know what else you installed in this house without telling us. What other modifications did you make? What other equipment did you bring from the facility?"Riley and Lake exchanged glances again, clearly debating how much to reveal."Some defensi

Chapter 295: ConflictsLUMINALazarus looked even more dangerous in person than he had earlier. His dark eyes tracked our approach with predatory intelligence, and despite the fact that he was imprisoned and powerless, there was something about his presence that screamed threat. Age and power and barely contained violence, all wrapped up in a form that looked deceptively human.I heard one of the elders—I think it was Elder Chen—gasp softly. Elder Harriet had gone pale, her usual composure cracking. Even Elder Johnson looked shaken, though he tried to hide it behind a mask of stern authority."This is Lazarus," Xenois said, his voice carrying throughout the basement. "A nightwalker of the old blood, over five hundred years old according to his own claims. He and several others attacked our home approximately two hours ago. They ransacked the house searching for something specific, and when they tried to flee, Riley and Lake trapped this one using a light prison they'd constructed as a

Chapter 297: Ollie's Threat LUMINA"A home that was just attacked because of their presence," Elder Johnson countered. "A home that now houses a captured nightwalker in the basement. Tell me, Alpha Xenois, does that seem like a safe environment for your son? For Ollie?"I felt Ollie tense beside me, and I reached out to rest a hand on his shoulder in a gesture of comfort and restraint."Ollie is fine," Xenois said, though I could hear the strain in his voice. "All three boys are fine. They're brave, resourceful, and perfectly capable of—""They're five years old!" Elder Harriet interrupted, her voice rising. "They shouldn't have to be brave or resourceful in their own home! They should be safe, protected, allowed to be children. And instead they're building light prisons in basements and trapping ancient supernatural creatures. That's not normal. That's not healthy.""You're right," I said, surprising everyone including myself. "It's not normal. It's not what childhood should look

Chapter 299: Shadow CouncilJEROME"Then we're surrounded by threats," Marcus said, frustration bleeding into his voice. "The boys with their facility knowledge and supernatural abilities. The Luna with whatever power let her kill Silas. The Alpha with his pack resources and territorial advantage. How are we supposed to succeed against all of that?""By being smarter," I said firmly. "By using the advantages we still possess and exploiting their weaknesses rather than confronting their strengths directly.""What advantages?" Victoria asked skeptically. "They have our brother. They know our weakness. They're dug into defended territory with pack support and—""And they're emotionally compromised," I interrupted. "The Alpha and Luna have become attached to those boys. Ollie—the biological son—has bonded with his twin and adopted Lake as a brother. The entire family is invested in protecting Riley and Lake, which means they'll make decisions based on emotion rather than tactical necessi
