All Chapters of The Fated Series: Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

SilenceLefu's POVI wake before the sun, as I always do.Crescent is quiet in the hour when darkness is more memory than fact. The courtyard below my borrowed balcony is a lattice of shadow and ash, half-mended fences casting long ribs across packed earth. Someone left a shovel leaning against a wall last night; dew pearls along the handle, bright as stars caught and cooled. If I let my breath slow and my mind open, I can feel the pack settling—wounds sleeping, bones knitting, wolves turning in their beds with dreams that are finally less like drowning.But I don’t open to the pack.I open to her.Evandra’s presence sits at the edge of my senses like a held note, steady and frayed all at once. She is nearby. Awake. And exhausted in a way that isn’t just lack of sleep—it’s the kind that splinters, quiet and deep. Kaelen flicks his tail in the back of my mind, a black ripple through still water. Go to her, he murmurs, baritone smoothed by night. Your moon has carried too much alone.I

BreathworkLefu's POVWe sit like that for a span of breaths that feels like prayer. The house begins to wake around us—footsteps, a knock down the hall, Stratton’s deep voice giving orders in the courtyard. I do not move. Neither does she. The tea cools. The shawl slips further and ends up pooled at her hips. There is a hush I have only ever found with her, even when the world blares.Finally, because rest is a task too, I say, “Eat, Evandra.” When she makes a face, I add gently, “For them.”For the four heartbeats I can’t hear yet but I believe in like sunrise. For the future none of us knows how to shape yet but all of us will carry.She rolls her eyes but reaches for the bread. I take it as the victory it is. I butter it, add honey, hand it to her. She bites, and when she chews, some of the tightness in her jaw loosens. I pour her more tea. She eats half, then hands me the other half, and I take it because sharing is a language older than any vow.“What will you do today?” she ask

Birth of the MirrorVera's POVThere is a reason I serve no gods.I have studied their gifts long enough to know that every blessing carries a curse. The Moon Goddess, most of all. Wolves still sing hymns to her light, but they never question the shadows that trail behind it. They never ask where the cracks began.I know.Because the Mirror told me.It began with the First Wolf. The stories say he rose from the Goddess’s tears, a creature caught between man and beast. Alone at first, until she pitied him and split his soul into others — pack, family, kin.But even unity has teeth.The First Alpha was not like the others. The Goddess carved into him something greater: a dominion, a weight of presence that made others lower their heads and bare their throats without thought. Wolves call it Alpha Power, as though it were sacred. In truth, it was nothing more than control.And the Goddess, in her wisdom, feared even her own gift.So she created a balance.The Alpha was strength. The Luna

MarchEvandraBy the time the sun lifted its pale face over Crescent’s ridge, the packhouse had already shed its hush. Hammers. Voices. The scrape of benches as warriors dragged them into rows outside the armory. Someone was singing—a low, steady note that hadn’t yet decided whether it was a prayer or a promise.I wrapped a shawl around my shoulders and walked the corridor toward the war room, my palm sliding along stone that still held the night’s cool. My body ached with the strange, hollow soreness that followed the Mirror’s assault, but my feet didn’t falter. Sage paced just under my skin—alert, watchful—her silver fur brushing the edge of my mind like wind through tall grass.We keep moving, she murmured. We choose the ground.The door stood open. Inside, the long table was already crowded: maps layered like scales; a chipped bowl of dark river stones; candles guttering in the draft; the scent of wax, leather, iron, and wolf. Tristan leaned over the map with his palms planted wid

Silver Haven FortressThe engines roared like beasts of steel and gasoline, a pack of black SUVs kicking up dust across the half-dead road that cut through Silver Haven’s ridges. Their headlights cut through the foggy gloom, beams dancing across pine and stone. Beside us, other convoys mirrored the sight—Green Briar, Pearl, Crescent, Celestia—all bound by one command. And weaving in and out of the formation ran wolves in their true forms, claws tearing earth, flanks bristling with harnesses strapped with rifles and knives.I sat in the back of Balor’s vehicle, the leather seat creaking beneath the weight of my armor. Crescent steel hugged my chest and shoulders, fitted to my curves, etched with faint protective sigils. My sword lay across my lap, its edge honed until it whispered danger every time it shifted. Tristan sat beside me, gaze fixed out the window, his green eyes hard. Osiris rode shotgun up front, arms crossed, his weapon—a short-barreled rifle—resting between his knees. Le
