CHAPTER 50: Luna's Celebration

Damian's POVThe bonfire is already crackling to life as the sun sets.Torches flicker around the clearing, their golden flames contrasting with the deepening twilight. The pack house stands proudly behind us, finally completed, its windows shimmering with warmth. The crowd gathers, filled with laughter and chatter, everyone carrying food and drinks. They’ve been anticipating this moment for a while now. So have we.Selena’s next to me, her hand in mine, her gaze fixed on the flames. She’s in this simple white dress, her hair flowing freely, cheeks slightly flushed. She looks radiant—maybe even glowing.I give her hand a gentle squeeze. “Ready?”She meets my eyes, a hint of nervousness there. “Ready.”I step up onto the platform, and the chatter dies down, faces turning toward us, eager.“Tonight, we celebrate.” My voice resonates across the clearing. “We’ve rebuilt, healed, faced loss, and found each other again.” I reach for Selena, drawing her beside me. “And tonight, I want to shar

CHAPTER 52: Luna's Morning

Selena's POV I wake up, and he’s still here beside me.His arm is wrapped around my stomach, his face nestled in my hair, breathing softly against my neck—warm and comforting. The sheets are all tangled around us, and the morning light filters through the curtains, casting a golden hue. I don’t want to move; I want to stay right here, wrapped in this warmth, in this tranquility, knowing that he’s my husband now.A smile creeps onto my face. Husband. It feels a bit strange, but in a really good way.I place my hand on my stomach. The babies seem quiet this morning, or maybe they’re still asleep. Honestly, I’m not entirely sure how all of this works. I just know they’re there, and he’s here, and for the first time in weeks, I feel at ease.He shifts behind me, pulling me in a little closer. “You’re awake.”“Looks like you’re awake too.”&ld

CHAPTER 51: WEDDING

Selena's POV The clearing is filled with the scents of smoke and flowers.I’m standing at the edge of the trees, hands shaking like crazy. Maya’s behind me, fussing with the flowers in my hair for the third time."Stop fidgeting.""I’m not fidgeting.""You’re vibrating."I let out a breathless laugh. "Same difference."Maya steps back to take a look at me. The dress is white and pretty simple—just like my mom’s. It’s the same one I wore when Caden rejected me, but today feels different. Nothing feels the same."You look great," Maya says. "Try not to cry; you’ll ruin your makeup.""I’m not going to cry.""You are going to cry."I take a deep breath. "Okay, maybe I will cry."She gives me a quick, fierce hug. "Go on. He’s waiting."Damian stands in the center of the clearing, hands behind his back, shifting his weight lik

CHAPTER 53: Grandfather's Warning

Selena's POV The garden is behind us, the sun has set, and the stars twinkle through the window. Damian's warmth is comforting against my back, his hand resting on my stomach, and his breathing is slow and steady. I should feel secure, and I do. But there’s something nagging at the corners of my mind, something dark, something lurking.I shut my eyes. The darkness envelops me.I find myself standing in a barren field.The grass is dead and brown, crunching beneath my feet. The sky is a dull gray, with low-hanging clouds, casting an odd light. There’s no sun, no moon, and no stars—just an endless grayness pressing down on me.I turn around. The field stretches out indefinitely. No trees, no mountains, no signs of life. I feel lost.Then I spot him.A wolf with silver eyes stands at the edge of the field. His fur is gray and lean, and he’s staring right at me. He seems aged; I can tell from the way

CHAPTER 54: The Letter

Caden's POV The road stretches out before me, desolate.It's been weeks since I made my escape from Bloodmoon—months since I watched my mother taken away in chains.I have no clear destination. I simply know I can’t remain here.The pack I once led lies in ruins. Not entirely gone, but shattered. The council now controls it, filled with wolves who resent my name, whispering behind my back. I’m unwanted there. They don’t want me anywhere.So, I keep walking.---I stumble upon a village quite by chance.Smoke billows from a group of huts, but it’s not the comforting kind—no cooking fires here. I can sense it before I even see it: blood and fear.I creep closer, moving quietly and low to the ground. Three wolves are prowling around the village’s edge, not quite a pack, nor exactly rogues. They look desperate and starving—the kind that haven’t eaten for day

CHAPTER 55: His Trying

Selena's POV The envelope is thin, the paper cheap, and the handwriting looks familiar.I find myself staring at it for a long while before I finally decide to open it. Damian is beside me at the kitchen table, nursing a cup of coffee, watching me closely but not pushing me to say anything. Maya is over by the stove, pretending she’s not interested.“It’s from Caden,” I manage to say.Damian puts down his cup. “What does he want?”Honestly, I have no clue. I open the envelope.The letter is short—just one page. His handwriting seems smaller than I remember, tighter, as if he was trying to cram too much into too little space. Selena,I don't know if you'll read this. I don't know if you'll care. But I needed to say it.I was wrong. About everything. About you, about my mother, about the life I thought I deserved. I was blind, and stupid, and

CHAPTER 56: Before Trail

Selena's POV The border hasn’t changed a bit.Gray stones, dead grass, and a fence that’s been falling apart for years. I've crossed this line countless times. Sometimes escaping, sometimes searching for something, never sure which side really feels like home.Damian is back there, giving me space but close enough that he can catch me if I stumble. He didn’t want me to come here. He told me Samuel doesn’t deserve my time. Still, he didn’t stop me.Samuel, my father, is waiting on the other side.He looks smaller than I remember. His shoulders are hunched, hands clasped in front of him, and his face has gone pale. The council let him out for just an hour, and only under guard.I pause at the stones. I can’t cross.“Selena.” His voice wavers. “Thank you for coming.”I don’t respond. What can I even say?He steps towards me. “I wante

CHAPTER 57: First Movement

Damian's POVI'm in the kitchen when Maya walks in.She stops and stares at Selena, who's sitting at the table with a cup of tea and a plate of cookies. Her belly is definitely round now. It’s noticeable. She’s been wearing loose shirts, but today she’s in something fitted, and there’s no hiding it.Maya's mouth opens, then closes, then opens again.“Selena.”Selena looks up. “What?”Maya points at her stomach. “That.”Selena glances down. “What about it?”“How many months it’s been?”“Four months. Almost five.”Maya’s eyes go wide. “Four months?”“That’s what Greta said.”Maya crosses the room and stands right in front of her. “Selena, I’ve seen pregnant women. I’ve helped deliver babies. Four months doesn’t look like that.”Selena blushes. “It’s twins.”Maya stares, first at her, then at her stomach, and back up at her face.“Twins.”“Twins.”Maya plops down hard on the bench across from her. “You’re having twins.”“That’s what I said.”“And you didn’t think to mention this earlier?”

CHAPTER 58: Bloodmoon Storm

Maya's POVThe scout is breathing hard, his face pale and hands trembling.I found him at the eastern gate, hunched over, sweat pouring down his face. He’d been running all night without a break.“Report.” My voice comes out sharper than I intended.He straightens up. “Rogues. Hundreds of them. Gathering in the valley east of the Bloodmoon border.”Chills run down my spine. “Hundreds?”“Maybe more. They’re organized, armored. Someone’s leading them.”I grip his arm. “Who?”He swallows hard. “Lucas Ahearn. And another Alpha. They’re calling him Viktor.”Lucas. He was supposed to be in council custody, locked away, forgotten. But of course, Elena has her people everywhere. It shouldn’t shock me that he escaped.“Where’s Alpha?”“In the war room.” I let his arm go. “Get food and water. Rest up. I’ll take care of this.”He nods, stumbling off toward the kitchens. I take off running.---The war room is located at the back of the pack house, with windows facing north and maps sprawled acros

CHAPTER 59: Quiet Night

Selena's POV Hours have passed since the war council wrapped up, but the maps still lie scattered across the table, weighed down by stones and marked with arrows and X's. Damian hasn't budged from his seat. He’s been staring at a particular spot on the map for what feels like twenty minutes.I watch him from the doorway. The fire’s almost out, and the room is dim except for the flickering candlelight. He looks worn out, older than he actually is."Damian."He glances up. "You should be sleeping.""And so should you."He rubs his face. "I can't. Every time I shut my eyes, all I see are them. Lucas. Viktor. The rogues."I walk over to him, taking his hand. "Come to bed.""I need to—""You need to rest." I pull him to his feet. "You can't lead if you're running on empty."He follows me, but his steps are heavy. I guide him out of the war room, down the hall, and into our bedroom. The c
