All Chapters of The Werewolf Trials: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Soon, the first trial began—choosing a cave to inhabit.Safiya stepped forward to explain the situation:"The Alpha Council has recorded some information, and now we're willing to share it with everyone. There are over a hundred caves scattered throughout this rainforest, and each can only hold one trial candidate. The Blood Moon Trials are essentially a role-playing scenario. Each cave is home to... some 'entities.' They were once powerful werewolves, but now they're trapped souls—wolves abandoned by their packs. They'll pretend to be your family, living with you for seven days. Remember, they're lone wolves—mad and dangerous—but at the same time... they desperately crave genuine 'connection.'"She paused for emphasis: "The location and size of the caves correspond to the rank of the 'lone wolf' that lived there. The lower, more peripheral caves are relatively safer. The entities inside might just be Deltas or ordinary feral wolves. But the higher, more central, deeper caves..."Tyne

The man in the black leather armor's face clearly flushed red. Just as he was about to speak, Lia, who had just finished resetting her own bones, rushed over and kicked him straight into the cave ceiling with such force that he got temporarily embedded in the rock.Then, the little wolf cub turned to me, nuzzling my face with her wet nose. Her golden vertical eyes looked at me pleadingly, "Mommy, Lia's hungry. Need food."Who could resist that?I immediately started searching through the cave, squinting carefully to identify the stored food, and excitedly went to prepare dinner for Lia—and for my "husband" hanging from the ceiling.My cooking skills are no joke. After I'd stewed a thick pot of soup with the wild pork, tubers, and herbs I found, the father and daughter pair licked the stone pot clean, not a drop of broth left.When I went to the back of the cave to wash at the water pool, I could overhear their "harmonious" conversation:"Lia, keeping this woman might not be such a ba

Hearing my answer, both Morgana and Morgan froze.The cave was so quiet you could hear water dripping from the walls."Family?" Morgan spoke first, her voice laced with sarcasm. "Little sheep, has the rainforest jungle fever gone to your head?"I shook my head, continuing to stir the herbs. "I'm perfectly clear. Since the Moon Goddess brought us together and made us live under the same roof, then we're family."Eros stepped closer to me, whispering, "Serina, they...""It's okay," I cut him off, offering the witch sisters a brilliant smile. "Let's all cook lunch together today? I can teach you a few new dishes."Morgana raised an eyebrow. "Are you questioning our cooking skills?""Of course not!" I quickly explained. "Just sharing some cooking techniques I know. Like how to make meat more tender, or how to remove the gaminess from certain ingredients."The comments from those watching the trial started scrolling again:【She's actually going to teach the curse hexenbiest how to cook?!】【

The discussion among those watching the trial immediately heated up:【The token collection phase is finally here! This is the most dangerous part!】【The entire group got wiped out in this phase during the last trial. Those lone wolves will never give up their tokens easily!】【How will Serina collect tokens? She can't even fight, can she?】Just then, my communication crystal flickered to life. It was a message from Safiya:【Serina, congratulations on surviving the first three days safely. Things are getting serious now, we need to help each other. I've contacted several survivors and we've decided to share information. There are a few relatively safe caves near your King's Nest. Perhaps we could cooperate?】Her tone was still gentle and concerned, but I noticed she was subtly probing:【By the way, I've always been curious how you survived in the King's Nest. Your "family"... are they easy to get along with? Any advice you could share?】I narrowed my eyes, carefully reading the words on

The days that followed, I stuck to my own pace. Each day, after collecting three tokens, I would turn back and not linger in the lower nests.I knew that every being here—those souls cast out by their packs, betrayed by their kin, and abandoned by fate—carried a heavy burden. Just like those Omega siblings sacrificed by their father, the young half-breed werewolf driven to suicide, and the healer falsely accused and losing her child... they all had heartbreaking stories.I listened and offered what comfort I could in my own way, then left with their tokens.Because I knew clearly that at the very top, in the "King's Nest" that all other trial candidates feared, my real family was waiting for me.Every day, when I stepped into the entrance of the 100th nest looking slightly weary, the first one to greet me was always Lia."Mommy!"She was like a silver-white cannonball, icy to the touch but bursting with joy, and she threw herself into my arms. Her little head rubbed insistently against
