Semua Bab Rejected By The Alpha, Claimed By His Uncle: Bab 161 - Bab 166

Darius POV It’s funny how everything that transpired were less than twenty four hours ago..In short, it had been less than twenty fours when I had died to protect the only things that mattered to me.‘How are you feeling? You’ve been quiet for a while’ I muttered.‘Like I almost died’ Chiron replied with a hint of sarcasm etched to his words.The walls still bore the scars of war, faint cracks running through pillars that had once stood untouched for generations. Torches burned along the edges, their steady flames casted long shadows across the gathered wolves within.Leaders, survivors as well as former enemies all under one roof.The air was thick with tension.. not the kind that led to battle, but the kind that came after it. The kind that decided what came next.I stood at the center not because I wanted to but because everyone decided to pack themselves at the corners.But if I was being fair with myself all I wanted to do was sleep.. Exhausted was an understatement right now

Seraphines povI had almost lost him. I had almost lost Aurelian.The images of Blake’s dagger at my son’s throat, the screams, the helplessness.. they surged through me like wildfire.“I… I can’t…” I whispered brokenly, my hands clutching his shirt as though holding him would keep the world from falling apart. “I almost… I almost lost him… I almost lost you.. I almost lost everything…”My tears soaked into him, and Darius didn’t move away. He didn’t speak, he just let me collapse into him, let me unravel entirely. My sobs racked my body, and I felt raw, naked and stripped of the armor I’d carried through battles, through betrayals, through horrors no one should ever face.Finally, his hands were on my back, steady, warm, firm. He bent slightly, pressing his lips to my temple, whispering against my skin.“Shh… Sera, look at me,” he murmured, his voice a tether pulling me back from the edge. “It’s over. You’re here. Aurelian is safe. I’m here. I’m alive. All of us.. we made it.”I

Darius povToday was the day..I could barely contain my excitement.. I had no reason to.‘Oh what a time to be alive.. Even the air smells differently’ Chiron chimed as I tried my possible best to keep my mind at bay and my face calm.But it was very obvious I was doing a terrible job.‘Do you think she’ll come?’ I awkwardly asked him.‘Of course she will’I turned to the closest window and couldn’t help but marvel at the sight, Clawfrost stood reborn beneath a sky that felt… different.Not lighter.Not softer.But changed.The mountains stood like silent witnesses as the wind kept threading through banners that no longer represented division, but something far more dangerous.. hope. The courtyard was filled beyond capacity with wolves from every territory, every bloodline, every history that had once divided them. Banners no longer stood as warnings or threats, but as proof.. Proof that they were still here, proof that they had survived and proof that we will continue to survive.
