FALL TO THEIR KNEESThe storm broke with sunrise.Silver clouds scattered like ghosts across the sky as light bled into the estate. It should’ve been a victory. Selene was gone. The ritual survived. The blade destroyed.But Liana couldn’t celebrate.Not when Kael still hadn’t woken.She hadn’t left his side in two days.He lay beneath the Luna-weaved sheets in her bed—bare-chested, skin pale, wound still raw despite the moon’s healing. His breath came in shallow bursts. His body healed, but something deeper resisted.Liana stared down at him, her palm resting against his chest.He had taken the blade for her.Not as a mate.Not as an Alpha.But as a man.She lowered her forehead to his, her voice cracking. “I should’ve stopped her. I should’ve seen Xander’s betrayal coming.”“I did,” came a hoarse rasp.Her breath hitched.She pulled back—and Kael’s eyes opened, slow, blazing gold meeting hers.He blinked like waking from a dream. “I came back for you.”Liana’s eyes flooded. “You almo

THE SHADOW SISTERThe return to Kael’s territory was not marked by celebration. Not by roses, not by drums, and certainly not by loyalty.The Pack stood divided.Some knelt the moment they saw Liana—glowing silver eyes and moon-burnished skin proof of her rebirth.Others backed away, growling low, their gazes flicking to Kael like traitors ready to snap."They fear her," Maya murmured beside Sierra. "They think she’s not one of us anymore.""She isn’t," Sierra replied. "She’s something greater. And that kind of power terrifies even the faithful."Kael didn’t wait for whispers to grow teeth.He strode through the courtyard, Liana at his side, head held high. "Anyone who doubts her stands against me. And anyone who stands against me… doesn’t stand for long."That quieted the worst of them.For now.But not all threats came from within.Later that night, when the moon had risen high and cold above the estate, Sierra summoned them to the sanctum again.This time, she wasn’t alone.The vis

THE DARK MIRRORThe moon was bloodred.It hovered low in the sky as Liana stood at the edge of the forest, the trees whispering secrets only half-forgotten. The earth beneath her boots was damp, still soaked from the last storm, and yet it pulsed beneath her feet—alive, alert. As if it, too, sensed what was coming.Astrid.Her sister.Her twin.And now, her enemy.Kael stood to her right, his gold eyes scanning the darkened horizon. Around them, their most loyal warriors waited, wolves and shifters alike. Maya. Elias. The Crescent scouts. Even Sierra had returned, silent and grave."We track them through the North glade," Kael murmured. "That rogue ambush last night? It wasn't random. They're luring us in."Liana nodded, tightening her grip on the dagger at her hip. It pulsed with old magic—the same magic that shimmered now beneath her skin like starlight. Her powers had awakened, but they were still raw. Still learning to obey her will."Let them lure us," she said. "I'm done waiting

OLVES THAT REMAINAsh blanketed the battlefield like snow.Smoke curled through the trees, mingling with the scent of blood and scorched earth. The forest groaned under the weight of what had transpired—bodies strewn in broken lines, the fallen claimed by silence.But the war was over.And the Crescent Pack had won.Liana stood on the ridge overlooking the clearing, Kael at her side. His hand was warm on her lower back, steadying her as her body continued to heal. Astrid stood a few feet away, her expression unreadable, her silver eyes reflecting the morning sun that finally broke through the storm.It was the first sunrise they’d seen in three days.Below, wolves worked in silence—gathering the injured, honoring the dead. The air hummed with subdued grief and weary triumph.Maya approached, blood staining her armor, her braid loose. "The last of the rogues scattered east. Elias is hunting down the stragglers."Kael nodded. "Any casualties?"Maya looked at Liana, then Astrid. "Too ma

THE BRIDE AND THE BEASTThe Well didn’t welcome them.It devoured.As Liana stepped fully into the void, her skin screamed. Her lungs constricted, not from lack of air—but from presence. Like something ancient coiled around her ribcage and watched.Astrid turned sharply, fury flashing in her silver-bright eyes. “You shouldn’t be here.”“You promised I wouldn’t be alone,” Liana said, voice low but firm. “Neither will you.”The void rippled around them, shuddering at the weight of twin blood.And then it fractured.Reality blinked.Suddenly, they stood in a garden.The Crescent stronghold in full bloom—flowers glowing faintly in the twilight, fountains singing, wolves lounging in peace.But something was wrong.Too perfect. Too quiet.Astrid’s breath caught. “This isn’t real.”“I know,” Liana whispered.But part of her wanted it to be.Because across the courtyard, she saw him.Kael.Whole. Unscarred. Smiling.He stood beside a cradle—rocking it gently with a look of peace Liana had nev
