Our Broken Howls 의 모든 챕터: 챕터 101 - 챕터 110

Sera POV The morning after the review did not feel victorious.It felt exposed.Not in the way fear exposes you, but in the way light does when it finds something you have kept in shadow long enough to forget it existed. The camp woke with that same careful quiet I had come to recognize. People moved with purpose, but they checked corners more often. Conversations ended when I passed, not out of secrecy, but out of instinct. As if they were waiting to see what shape the day would take now that the line had been drawn.I felt it too.The wolf did not pace. It did not bristle. It stayed close, alert, aware that visibility had consequences it could not outrun.Standing meant being seen from every angle.I reviewed the overnight updates before leaving my quarters. No disturbances. No external movement beyond routine patrols. But internally, there were notes. Requests for clarification. Department heads asking whether procedures would change. Whether the review altered priorities.They we

Sera POV The air in Ravenwood had shifted before nightfall. The sunlight that filtered through the trees carried a sharper edge, illuminating dust and mist like it was aware of what was coming. I moved through the clearing slowly, sensing the eyes of wolves hidden among the shadows, observing, weighing, judging. Every step I took felt like a negotiation with an invisible authority, as though the world itself was measuring my right to be present.Kaelen had left hours ago, summoned again by matters I did not yet know. His absence was a quiet presence, felt in the empty space beside me. I welcomed the silence he left behind, but it carried its own tension. Alone with the observation of others, I felt every unspoken judgment. Wolves whispered behind their hands, eyes flicking to me, to Erya. Some looked away quickly. Others lingered too long. I counted their reactions, storing them like stones in a bag, planning how to use them when necessary.Lyra moved beside me at a distance, unspoke

Sera POV The forest was silent in a way that demanded attention. Not absence of sound, but a stillness that carried weight. Ravenwood held its breath, and I moved through the shadows, attuned to every rustle of leaves, every footfall that wasn’t my own. The council’s presence lingered in the air, not as bodies or voices, but as expectation and pressure, pressing against the territory, the wolves, and me. Their restrictions were formalized now, but restrictions were never absolute. They were boundaries to be understood, to be observed, and to be carefully tested.Lyra followed at a measured distance, her eyes scanning the woods, every movement deliberate. Erya stayed close to me, small but observant, her curiosity tempered by the lessons of caution she had learned quickly. The weight of responsibility pressed against me. Every decision, every glance, every step could ripple outward, affecting the delicate balance of loyalty and observation that held Ravenwood together.I paused at the

Sera POV The council chamber was already full when I entered, and that alone told me this was not meant to be a discussion. Wolves lined the walls in rigid formation, their expressions carefully neutral, their attention fixed on the raised dais where the elders sat. Torches burned low, casting uneven light that exaggerated every shadow, every shift of posture. The room had been arranged to intimidate. I felt it immediately, the deliberate imbalance of power pressing inward.I did not bow.Instead, I walked to the center of the chamber and stopped, feet planted firmly against the stone floor. My wolf stirred beneath my skin, alert but contained. This was not the place for fury. This was the place for resolve.Myra’s gaze locked onto mine. She did not bother with pleasantries. “You have continued to operate at the edges of our authority,” she said. “Despite clear restrictions.”“I have operated within them,” I replied calmly. “If those boundaries have shifted, that decision was not com

Sera POV The fracture did not announce itself with noise. It arrived quietly, the way truth often did, settling into the marrow before the mind caught up. By the third morning after the council meeting, it was impossible to pretend Ravenwood was still whole.I felt it in the way wolves moved through shared spaces, how their gazes slid away or lingered too long. I heard it in the pauses between conversations, the way names were spoken carefully, as if saying the wrong one aloud might tip the balance. Even the land seemed altered. Paths worn smooth by decades of routine now felt uncertain beneath my feet.Power had shifted. Not cleanly. Not decisively. But enough to matter.I walked the perimeter alone at first light, the sky still pale and undecided. The patrol rotations had changed again overnight. I noted the absences, the substitutions, the patterns that no longer matched the council’s official directives. Someone was making choices. Several someones, judging by the inconsistencies
