Secret Lessons

Chapter 39 Axel and the pack believed Raven spent her afternoons in solitude walking the forest paths, meditating by the streams, or simply catching her breath from the weight of being a Luna.What they didn’t know was that she spent them with Malrik Draikos.The old ruin at the edge of the packs’ land was a forgotten place, swallowed by vines and stone, its altar cracked with age. It was here Malrik waited every other day, his hair damp from the mist that rose off the river.“You’re late,” he said, his voice low but not unkind.Raven lifted the short spear he had given her days ago. Its edge was dull, meant only for training, but the weight of it was heavy in her hands. “I had to slip past Axel’s patrol. He’d skin me if he knew I was sneaking off to train with you.”Malrik’s eyes gleamed faintly gold, something ancient smoldering behind his mortal shell. “If Axel loves you, he’ll want you strong. Not coddled again.”They sparred. The clash of steel against steel echoed through the r

The Forgotten Tomb

Chapter 40Raven woke with a scream lodged in her throat.Her body thrashed, slick with sweat, and her heart pounded so hard it felt like it might split her chest. For a moment she didn’t know where she was until she could feel the cold wall beneath her shoulder blades and the faint smell of Axel’s skin in the air.Her hands shook as she pressed them against her eyes. The memory of last night crashed over her: Axel’s mouth on her, his hands sliding lower, the fire in her veins exploding so fierce it had nearly consumed her.She glanced to the side, Axel wasn’t there.Only the imprint of him remained on the sheets, the warmth already fading.The whisper of movement behind her froze her pulse. Instinct had her spinning, claws half-bared, only to find Malrik standing in the shadows.The dragon’s dark eyes caught what little light the moon left behind. “Your control is fraying.”Raven scowled. “Do you always appear uninvited?”“I go where the bond draws me,” Malrik said calmly, stepping c

Veins of Fire

Chapter 41 The world shattered into red and Raven’s scream echoed through the Forgotten Tomb as fire poured from the cracked sarcophagus into her veins. It burned like molten iron, tearing through flesh, through bone and spirit.Her wolf howled inside her; wild, feral, as if she too had been set ablaze. Raven's claws lengthened, scraping across stone as her body convulsed.The sarcophagus split fully open with a deafening crack. A surge of light swallowed the chamber, runes exploding in brilliance.Malrik’s roar broke through it all. “RAVEN!”He lunged, seizing her shoulders, trying to anchor her as fire licked from her skin in violent waves. His dragon mark glowed down his neck, resonating against her blood like steel clashing with steel.Her voice was ragged. “Make it stop…!”“I can’t,” Malrik growled, straining to hold her thrashing form. “This is the Blade claiming you.”The sarcophagus pulsed one final time before collapsing inward. From within, a shape flickered, jagged, blac

Lyandra's Betrayal

Chapter 42 Raven fought to keep her composure as she needed to be more calm and compassionate.She needed to be Luna.But Lyandra Draikos wasn’t making it easy.Lyandra had watched the Pack's unease grow with hungry satisfaction as her beautiful face wore pity when she spoke to them, but her eyes glittered with malice.“Did you see her veins last night?” she whispered to a pair of young wolves at the training field. “Glowing like molten fire. Tell me, have you ever seen a wolf with fire for blood?”The wolves exchanged glances, uncertain.“She isn’t one of us,” Lyandra said sweetly, laying a hand on one wolf’s shoulder. “And one day, that fire might turn on you.”Her words spread like ash on the wind. But whispers weren’t enough, Lyandra wanted to break Raven.Two nights later, it happened.The Riders had gathered in the hall for a meal, the long table laden with venison, bread, and spiced mead. Axel sat at Raven’s side, his presence steady as a mountain, Malrik was further down, s

The Vanisher

Chapter 43 Inside Axel’s quarters, Raven tossed restlessly in the massive bed, her breaths sharp,and her skin slick with cold sweat. The bond between her and Axel usually steadied her at night, but tonight, it was no anchor.Her mind had been pulled into a battlefield not of earth or sky but of soul and shadow.The Hollow Blade waited for her there.It was no weapon forged by men, nor a simple vision birthed from fear. It was something etched into the marrow of her existence. A spectral blade with jagged, shifting edges, its body wreathed in whispers that cut deeper than steel. The voice it carried wasn’t one voice, it was many, layered, distorted, yet unified in cruelty."You think you can wear the crown of Luna? You think your blood is strength, hybrid?" the Blade hissed, circling her in the void-space.Raven’s wolf prowled inside her, snarling, but every time she tried to summon claws or fangs, the Blade cleaved through the manifestation, scattering it like ash. Her body shook, kn

The Storm of Veils

Chapter 44 Morning light crept reluctantly across the compound, spilling golden rays through high windows. Yet for Raven, there was no warmth in the dawn. Her body lay curled against Axel’s, but her mind had not rested a second. She hadn’t told him everything. Couldn’t.Nyxian’s smirk haunted her and the word Goddess pressed against her ribs like a brand. And worse, she had seen the Hollow Blade cross the threshold of her dreams and shimmer into waking reality.If Axel didn’t see it, if no one else could… What did that make her?She moved carefully, slipping from Axel’s hold. His protective instincts made him a light sleeper, yet exhaustion had finally dragged him down after hours of watching her. She pressed a kiss to his forehead before stepping out into the hall.The compound hummed with activity. Warriors of the Moon Riders moved like shadows through the courtyard, sparring, preparing, always ready for ambush. Somewhere in the distance, engines growled, Harleys tuned for speed, w

Iron Fangs Betrayal

Chapter 45 The storm had broken by morning, leaving the compound washed in silver light. Puddles reflecting in the pale blue sky.Raven stood at the balcony railing where Nyxian had last appeared. She hadn’t slept, as no amount of rain could wash away the whisper he had left her with:Because, little Goddess… you were never meant to share me.She pressed trembling hands into the railing until her knuckles ached. Every time she closed her eyes, the Hollow Blade gleamed in the dark, daring her to reach for it.“Raven.”Startled, she turned to Axel who leaned in the doorway, arms folded, dark hair damp from training but his eyes softened at her weariness.“You’re burning yourself out.” His voice was quiet. “Come eat something, you don’t have to keep walking around like the whole damn war is only on your shoulders.”Her lips parted, she wanted to argue but the truth was, he was right. And though she couldn’t tell him everything, the warmth in his gaze steadied her more than any steel o

The Dragon's Fire

Chapter 46 The pack's courtyard reeked of blood and smoke, wolves limping back with silver-steeped wounds as broken blades littered the ground. The flames of the southern wall still burned, refusing to die.Raven stood amidst it all, chest heaving. Her hands shook as the Hollow Blade still pulsed in them, whispering for more blood. She’d tried to drown its call, but it clung to her like a second heartbeat.Axel came to her side, soot-streaked but unbowed, his arm bleeding freely. He was Alpha even in exhaustion as his shoulders squared, voice steady enough to hold the ten packs together.“Bury the dead and guard the walls.” His orders rolled like thunder. “This isn’t over.”Raven pressed a hand to his forearm, her voice soft. “You’re hurt.”He looked at her then, gray eyes shadowed as he held her. “Not as much as you are.”She flinched, not from his touch, but from the truth in his words.Before she could answer, Malrik Draikos stepped forward.The mysterious newcomer had been quiet

Luna's Fury

Chapter 47 Raven's wolf was restless, snarling at the edges of her mind as she laid on the bed. And worse, the Hollow Blade pulsed again within her vision, ghostly and hungering.“Raven.” Axel’s voice broke through the haze, his hand gripping her shoulder firmly. “Breathe Darling, you’re shaking.”She tried to steady herself, but the jagged whisper of the Hollow Blade mocked her. “You’re not strong enough and it looks like you will never be.” Malrik’s golden eyes glowed in the dark as he murmured. “This is only the beginning, the guardians are waking, but the enemy grows bolder with each spark of power you claim.”Before Raven could ask what he meant, the air outside cracked open with a sound like a splintering glass and the rain poured down in torrents. Malrik whispered. “Go to Sleep, princess. You will need all the strength you can get.”Raven wanted to respond but sleep and exhaustion overpowered her.Two days later, Raven and Axel were in the Alpha's cottage off the pack’s terr

The Rift of Blood

Chapter 48 Raven stood amidst it all, trembling, her body still pulsing with the remnants of lunar fire as the battlefield littered with broken armours, weapons and dead rogues. Her veins glowed faintly beneath her skin, the Hollow Blade whispering against her consciousness.Axel’s grip on her waist was steady, his eyes scanning her face with something between awe and fear. “What just happened to you, Raven?”Her lips trembled as she whispered, “I… I think I faced the Lunar or maybe I faced myself, I don’t know.”Malrik stepped forward, his dragon aura heavy as thunder. “No. You faced the bloodline within you and you did not conquer it, you barely bent it.The fury sleeps in you now, Raven Blackthorne, but when it wakes again…” He trailed off, his gaze grim. “It will demand blood.”Before she could speak, a mocking laugh echoed across the battlefield.The leader of the rogues, battered but still standing, leaned against his assistant. “Did you fools not see? She’s not your savior.
