The scars of war healed faster than Luna expected.On the *outside*, at least.Moonshadow’s walls had been patched, scorched stone replaced by fresh-cut rock that still smelled faintly of dust. The training yard, once a churned mess of blood and mud and shattered weapons, now bore only faint depressions where paws and boots had pounded the earth raw. Saplings had been planted along the inner perimeter, their thin trunks staked and tied, leaves trembling eagerly in every breeze—as if the forest itself were leaning in to reclaim what had been torn.Wolves moved through the den with an ease Luna had dreamed of for years.Laughter broke out in corners without flinching into silence at every creak of stone.Pups played in the courtyards, inventing games out of old fears.“Shadow Pack!” Jori cried, flinging himself behind a rain barrel.“You cannot get me,” another pup shouted. “Queen Luna burned you all up with her storm-fire!”“Queen Luna would not burn pups,” a third said primly, and lau

They chose stone and shadow for the meeting place.No carved thrones.No banners.Just a ring of upright rocks older than any living Alpha and a canopy of twisted branches that let in slivers of light like blades.The message was clear before a single word was spoken:You are not the only weight here, Luna of Moonshadow.The Council of Circles had been her idea, but she had never intended to *own* it.That did not mean others were comfortable with how easily her name had become its shorthand.“Are you ready?” Orion asked quietly as they approached the clearing, their footsteps muffled on the damp forest floor.Luna adjusted the simple leather mantle over her shoulders.No crown.No extra finery.Just her mark, faintly luminous on her brow, and the quiet thrum of the Moonstone and star-Seed in her chest.“As ready as I can be,” she said. “This will not be a trial. It will only feel like one.”Orion’s mouth tightened.“If they turn it into a trial,” he muttered, “they may discover my op

The storm rolled in without warning.No shift in scent.No slow, gathering weight of clouds.One瞬 the sky above Moonshadow was a clear blue shell, the next it was veiled in a strange, luminous gray that was not quite cloud, not quite mist.Luna felt it first in her bones.A deep, low hum that was not the ache of the Moonstone, not the throb of her overworked heart, but a *summoning* chord struck on some unseen instrument.She stood at the edge of the Moonstone Grove, hand resting lightly on the cool pillar of crystal, listening to Kerran read out a letter from Greenwood, when the hum hit.It was like someone plucked a string inside her chest.Her mark flared, a bright, sudden pulse that swallowed the softer daylight.Her knees wobbled.“Luna?” Kerran’s voice snapped off mid-sentence.She steadied herself on the stone.“Do you feel that?” she asked, voice thin.Kerran blinked.“Feel… what?” he asked, wary.Luna’s answer was cut off by a single, clear tone ringing out across the grove.

They had slept back to back for three nights. Not in anger. Not quite. In… distance. A fragile, careful space between spines that had once fit like puzzle pieces. Luna felt it more keenly than any sharp word. The absence. The pull with no answer. The bond that had once been a sure, warm current between them now snagged and stuttered like a river hitting hidden rocks. Some of it was the sickness. The Moonstone’s strain made her jagged, thin-skinned. She could not always tell when the pain in her chest was physical, when it was fear, when it was guilt, when it was Orion’s feelings bleeding into hers and getting tangled. Tonight, the Moon hung high and cracked above the den, silver spilling through the narrow window of their chamber. The rest of the pack settled into sleep in layers of breath and heartbeat. Luna lay on her side, staring at the curved line of Orion’s back. He faced the wall, broad shoulders rising and falling. He was not fully asleep. She

The Moonstone had always hummed.Softly, steadily, like a heart under stone.Tonight, it *sang.*Luna heard it, she stepped into the grove.Not the usual low thrum that settled in her bones.A higher note, thin and clear, hovering at the edge of hearing like a glass struck and left ringing.The grove itself felt… altered.The air was sharper, as if the world had just taken a cold breath.Moonlight spilled through the branches in thin, concentrated beams that converged on the central pillar of crystal, turning its facets into a column of pale fire.The Moon hung directly overhead, crack veined and glowing.Her fractured light poured down like liquid.Luna’s mark burned in answer.Inside her chest, the Moonstone shard pulsed so hard it hurt.She swayed.Orion’s hand caught her elbow before she could mask the motion.“You should be in bed,” he murmured. “Elia said—”“Elia is not the one the Moon is screaming for,” Luna cut in, voice thin. “Do you not feel it?”He hesitated.“I feel… some
