All Chapters of The Outcast Luna Becomes The Lycan Queen: Chapter 171 - Chapter 180

Snow spoke again, confident and sharp. 'Relax. I observed her power the moment she stepped in. She won’t break my shield. She can’t—'I exhaled shakily in relief while staring at the elder, who placed her palm on the door. Instantly, an invisible force pulsed violently from the wood.There was a deep, echoing thrum... a beat of pure magic.Then, The elder was flung backward. Her body slammed into the wall with a heavy crack. She gasped, shocked, air punched out of her lungs. Pepper jumped at the sound and spun around, eyes widening in disbelief. "Elder Rose..."That was all the time I needed—a distraction. My body moved before I thought.I launched forward. Fast with power centered on both of my hands.Pepper barely had time to turn her head when my hand clamped around her throat. She choked, the sound strangled and panicked. My other hand moved swiftly, a silver blade sliding from my sleeve. Before she could scream, I drove the blade into the side of her neck, the strike preci

“Elder Freya… What happened to her?”The question scraped out of my throat before I even realized I was speaking. Remi’s hand had grown colder in mine, her fingers limp and barely responding to my grip. Panic clawed through my chest. She had pushed herself far past her limits. I could feel it in the way her pulse trembled beneath her skin.Elder Freya did not answer immediately. Her palms hovered directly over Remi’s heart, glowing faintly as she focused her healing energy. Her brows tightened, but she did not panic. She rarely did.For several agonizing moments, the only sound was Remi’s shallow breathing and my own heartbeat pounding in my ears.Finally, Elder Freya shifted her gaze to me.“She is fine,” she said gently. “Her energy is exhausted. She forced herself too hard. She only needs rest to wake up.”Relief flooded me so suddenly that my knees nearly buckled. I exhaled a rushed, shaky breath and brushed Remi’s hair away from her face. She looked fragile in a way she never h

Teleporting repeatedly really drained me faster than I expected. Still, I forced myself not to stop until the familiar darkness of the forbidden forest swallowed me. I landed on a huge boulder, surrounded by towering trees and the eerie silence that always clung to this place. The faint scent of the magic barrier from the castle hit me instantly, sharp and cold, coating the back of my tongue like frost.Rowan’s voice rang clearly in my mind now. The closer I was to the castle, the stronger our bond became.'Your Highness! Your highness… can you hear me?''Yes! Speak...''Your Highness, we are trying hard to break the magic barrier, but we have not succeeded so far. Even Elder Asher has tried it, and nothing happened. He nearly died after trying several times.''Do you know who did this?' I asked. This was the biggest question that bothered me the entire time I was on my way to this place. There was a pause before Rowan finally said, "If I'm not mistaken, it was Pepper, the Queen's

The moment I stepped out of Kael’s room, silence swallowed the hallway. The air was still thick with tension, and the heavy metallic scent of fresh blood clung to everything. The walls were streaked red, smeared by claws and violent impact. The floor looked worse. A battlefield. A warning. A story written in flesh.Everything remains the same. I find it hard to imagine how Rissa killed them.Then, Footsteps echoed from the stairs. Rowan appeared first, followed by Elder Freya, Elder Asher, and Remi. They moved cautiously as if stepping into a predator’s den. Which, to be fair, was accurate.They didn’t notice me at first.Not until I spoke.“Rowan.”All four of them jolted so violently they nearly tripped over each other.Rowan blinked, eyes wide. “Your Highness...” His gaze dropped to the carnage on the floor. His voice trembled. “This blood... who is she?”“That?” I pointed lazily to the corpse near the seating area. “Pepper. And the body over there is the dark witch.”Elder Fre

The days after the attack felt strangely quiet. As if the palace itself tried to erase what happened. Servants and guards moved normally again, though occasionally their eyes darted toward shadows as if expecting Pepper or the dark witch to suddenly show up again.Life attempted to return to normal. Most of my days were spent between my son, Kael, and the overwhelming duties placed upon me as Queen. I was still adjusting to that title. Queen of Crescentia. Queen of several packs. Queen of a kingdom I barely understood a few months ago. Meanwhile, Veldrin had become even busier. I barely saw him, except in the mornings before sunrise or late at night when both of us were too exhausted to talk. Every hour, he spent either in his office, in war council meetings, or out investigating unrest in distant territories.Whispers traveled faster than arrows in the palace. And through them, I learned what was happening... Thane’s betrayal in the West District clean-up; the remaining traitors
