THE PLAGUE

The first death attracted little attention.After all, wolves dies due to old age, accidents and illness.Such things happened.So no one thought much about it when an elderly omega from the eastern district suddenly fell ill and died three days later.The healers called it an unfortunate fever and the family mourned.Life continued.Then a second person died, and a third, then a fourth.Within a week, unease began spreading through Knox-Shade Pack.The victims all displayed similar symptoms of persistent fever, violent coughing, wolf weakness, dark patches appear beneath the skin, then death.The healers worked day and night, yet none of their remedies seemed effective.The sickness simply continued spreading."What do you mean you don't know what's causing it?"Knox's voice echoed through the healer's hall.Several healers immediately lowered their heads.The chief healer looked exhausted.His eyes were bloodshot from lack of sleep."We've tried everything, Alpha."He rubbed his for

BLOOD FOR THE CURE

The plague continued to spread.Every sunrise seemed to bring new deaths and sunset brought fresh despair.The healer's quarters had become overcrowded with the sick.Entire families were now being quarantined.And three more children died that week.Their small bodies were buried before dawn and the grieving parents wailed throughout the night.The sound haunted the entire pack.Even the strongest warriors lowered their heads whenever another funeral procession passed by.Nobody knew what to do anymore.Not even Knox.Inside the council hall, frustration hung heavily in the air.Stefan stood beside Knox while Ray and several elders occupied their usual seats.The atmosphere was grim as the latest report had just arrived."Seventy-three infected."The chief healer's voice trembled."Twenty-one deaths."Silence filled the room and Knox's face darkened.The numbers were growing, not shrinking."There must be something we're missing," one elder muttered."We cannot continue like this."

THREE DAYS TO DIE!

The night felt unusually heavy as a cold wind drifted through Knox-Shade Pack and darkness settled over the territory.Inside her chamber, Aria sat alone beside the window.Sleep refused to come.Asoft knock suddenly interrupted her thoughts.She looked toward the door."Come in."The door opened and Knox entered.Immediately, Aria noticed something was wrong.His face was calm as always, but his eyes were unusually dark and far too serious.Her stomach tightened."Knox?"He closed the door behind him and for several moments he simply looked at her.As if searching for the right words and at alone frightened her.Knox was never hesitant or uncertain.Yet tonight, he looked troubled.Very troubled.Slowly, he walked toward her."Something happened during the council meeting."Aria immediately stood."What happened?"Knox remained silent for a moment, then he finally spoke."The Pack Seer claims she discovered the cause of the plague."Hope flashed briefly across Aria's face."And a cur

THE CURE (1)

The three days passed like a storm.While the rest of Knox-Shade Pack waited anxiously for answers, Aria barely slept.She spent every waking hour moving between the healer's quarters, the infected districts, the water reservoirs, and the storage houses.Her clothes became stained with herbs and dark circles appeared beneath her eyes, yet she refused to stop.Because every hour she wasted meant more lives lost.And every life lost meant the Pack Seer's accusations gained more believers.By the second day, several infected wolves had already begun showing signs of worsening conditions.The chief healer's expression grew darker with each passing report.Even Knox's patience was beginning to wear thin.Not with Aria though but with the unknown enemy hiding somewhere in the shadows.Late into the second night, Aria sat surrounded by scrolls and medicinal notes inside the healer's quarters.The room was lit only by a few candles while the chief healer sat opposite her.Both looked exhauste

THE CURE (2)

Seeing the darkness in his eyes, she swallowed hard."I don't know, Alpha. I only received an unknown letter"She whispered.The answer only darkened Knox's expression further."You nearly condemned an innocent woman. My mate"The Seer lowered her head."You turned this pack against one of its own."She began sobbing."All because you allowed greed to outweigh your duty."The room fell silent.Everyone already knew the outcome.The punishment for betraying the pack, abusing sacred authority Or causing deaths.Was the same was one sentence.Death.Knox rose slowly."The spirits you claimed to speak for, can reveal who the betrayal is to you in imprison while awaiting your judgment."The Seer's sobs intensified."Alpha please—"But Knox had already turned away.The guards moved forward and dragged her away.The council hall had emptied long ago and night had fallen over Knox-Shade Pack.The former Pack Seer sat alone inside a guarded chamber beneath the council building.Her hands tremb

THE LUNA TRIALS

The celebration following the cure lasted for three days.For the first time in weeks, laughter returned to Knox-Shade Pack.The markets reopened, Pups ran through the streets once again and the training grounds filled with warriors.And everywhere Aria went, people greeted her warmly.The same people who had once doubted her now thanked her for saving their lives.Some even bowed respectfully.It felt strange. Almost unreal.Only months ago she had been a rejected mate cast out from her own pack, now she was slowly becoming something else.Inside the Alpha's study, Knox stood by the window overlooking the recovering pack.Stefan and Ray sat nearby reviewing reports.The atmosphere was peaceful.A rare thing these days.Knox placed the final report on his desk."The plague is over."Ray nodded."The healers confirmed it yesterday morning."Stefan smiled."The pack hasn't looked this happy in weeks."Knox's gaze shifted toward the training grounds below.For several moments he remained

The Luna Trials (1)

The entire training arena was packed up with thousands of wolves filled the viewing platforms.Warriors stood shoulder to shoulder.While some pack members climbed rooftops and stone walls just to get a better view.Today wasn't merely a competition because today would decide whether a rejected wolf from Nightclaw Pack could become the Luna of Knox-Shade Pack Or remain nothing more than an outsider.Aria stood alone in the center of the arena.The morning breeze tugged gently at her white ceremonial dress.Her palms were sweating.She could feel hundreds of eyes staring at her.Some hoping she would succeed and others hoping she would fail spectacularly.Especially one particular wolf.The female Delta sat among the warriors, her arms folded across her chest.The moment Aria looked in her direction, Muna offered a cold smile.The kind of smile that promised trouble.Aria immediately looked away.She didn't need distractions today, not when everything she had worked for was hanging by

The Luna Trials (2)

The entire arena gasped while several wolves stumbled backward.The brightness was almost unbearable.Aria cried out as warmth surged through her body.It wasn't painful or frightening but it felt powerful as the silver energy wrapped around her like living moonlight.The crowd stared in complete shock.And then.. .For the first time in years… The Moon Stone began singing.A low, beautiful hum echoed across the sacred grounds.Every wolf present felt it deep within their souls.It was a blessing and a recognition acceptance.The Moon Goddess had spoken.And she had chosen Aria.Aria herself could barely understand what was happening.The moment her hand touched the Moon Stone, she felt herself being pulled somewhere else.Somewhere beyond the arena and it's physical world.Her surroundings slowly disappeared.The cheers, crowd and arena. Everything faded until only silver light remained.Aria found herself standing in an endless field.Silver grass swayed gently beneath a glowing moo

BETA STEFAN HAS GONE CRAZY

The celebration from the Luna Trials continued long into the night.Bonfires burned throughout Knox-Shade Pack and music echoed through the streets.Children ran between houses carrying silver ribbons and moonflowers.For the first time in many years, the pack had something worth celebrating.Not a victory in war or the defeat of an enemy, but the rise of a Luna.Inside her chamber, Aria sat quietly before the mirror.The room was empty except for her.Her fingers slowly touched the place on her wrist where the silver runes had appeared during the trial.Though the marks had vanished, she could still feel something there.A strange warmth like a gentle power flowing beneath her skin.The blessing had changed something inside her.She could sense it, yet she couldn't explain it.A soft knock sounded and before she could answer, the door opened.Knox stepped inside.Immediately, Aria smiled. The tension in her shoulders easing."You should be sleeping."Knox said.Aria rolled her eyes.

The Luna Coronation

The next morning arrived quickly.Before sunrise, the entire pack had already gathered at the Sacred Grounds.Silver banners fluttered from every building while Moonflowers decorated the pathways.Warriors stood proudly in ceremonial armor.The atmosphere felt almost magical.Aria emerged from the council chambers accompanied by several elder women.A collective gasp spread through the crowd.She looked breathtaking.A silver ceremonial gown flowed around her with Moonstones glittered within her braided hair.The symbol of Knox-Shade Pack rested proudly over her heart.For a moment… Even Knox forgot how to breathe.Stefan immediately noticed and he smirked."Careful Alpha. We don’t want to carry the groom inside tonight"Knox ignored him and Ray nearly laughed."Too late."The drums began.BOOM. BOOM. BOOM.The entire crowd fell silent as Aria slowly walked toward the ancient altar where Knox was already waiting.Their eyes met and the world seemed to disappear only for a moment.Then
