Chapter 21

Evelyn's POVThe Grand Hall of the Black Forest Pack was packed with hundreds of pack members and representatives from other territories.The massive "Mirror of Truth" floated in the center of the hall, glowing with a pure, silver light.This legendary artifact could detect any lie, making the truth unavoidable.I sat in the witness box, watching the whispering crowd below.Many were still discussing the online rumors about me, their gazes filled with suspicion and hostility."This trial is now in session!"Austen stood at the judgment platform, his voice echoing through the hall."The accused today: Seraphina Nightshade."Seraphina was brought forward.She wore a white dress, her face pale, her eyes filled with wronged tears.Even now, she was still playing the innocent victim."I've done nothing wrong," she sobbed to the audience. "I just wanted a safe place to raise my child..."A few sympathetic murmurs rose from the crowd."Look how pitiful she is...""She must have been framed...

Evelyn's POVSeraphina's mad laughter echoed through the hall.She opened her mouth, and I saw her bite down on something.CRACK.A sharp, breaking sound."A Soul-Binding Stone!" Liam yelled, his face white with horror. "She shattered it!"My blood ran cold. It wasn't just a trigger. It was a sacrifice. The array wasn't just a trap. It was a summoning circle."Everyone, get out!" I yelled at the crowd. "Evacuate now!"But it was too late.The floor of the hall began to glow, and countless complex runes emerged from beneath the stone.The runes covered the entire hall, forming a massive summoning circle."Twelve years!" Seraphina laughed, spitting blood. "I've been preparing for twelve whole years!""From the day I first set foot in this pack, I have been carving this array into the ground, piece by piece!"The sky began to change.The once clear blue sky turned a sickening blood-red.Dark clouds roiled, and lightning flashed."By my blood! By my soul!" Seraphina screamed as her body be

Evelyn's POVGolden flames erupted from Austen, clashing violently with the dark god's black energy.The entire hall trembled."A soul sacrifice?" the dark god cackled. "You think that can stop me?""Not stop," Austen's voice came from within the flames. "Imprison.""I will use my Alpha soul as an eternal cage!"His body began to turn translucent as his wolf burned away.His life force drained like a tidal wave, but his will was as strong as steel."What?" For the first time, the dark god showed fear. "Impossible! You can't do this!""I can," Austen gritted his teeth, pouring more of his soul's essence into the fire. "For her, I can do anything."I stared at the scene before me, stunned.This man, who had betrayed and hurt me.Now, he was burning his own life to protect me."Austen..." I reached out, trying to touch him.But my hand passed through his transparent form.He was no longer a being of flesh and blood, but a pure flame of soul."Don't come closer!" he looked back at me, his

I stared at his translucent form, my heart clenching painfully."Austen..." I wanted to say something, but the words were stuck in my throat.His form grew more transparent, the golden light beginning to spread outwards."Don't be afraid," he managed a final smile. "This time, I'll take her away for good."As he spoke, his soul erupted in a blinding golden light.The light was as brilliant as the sun, illuminating the ruins like it was day.I saw the remnants of the dark god's power trying to re-form.But Austen's soul transformed into a golden chain, wrapping tightly around the dark energy."You can't escape," his voice echoed in the light. "This time, we disappear together.""No! I haven't finished my revenge!" Seraphina's desperate scream came from within the dark god."Revenge?" Austen laughed coldly. "You've already lost. Completely."The golden light grew brighter and brighter, finally dissolving into a shower of stardust.Austen's soul, dragging the dark god with it, dissipated
