CHAPTER 140

POV: Neah The Lycan Council stands before me. Three ancient beings radiating power that makes the lunar stone's energy feel like a candle next to the sun. The woman steps forward. Silver hair. Ageless face. Eyes that have seen millennia. "I am Elder Moira. Council Prime. This is Elder Theron and Elder Cassius." The two male Lycans nod. Silent. Assessing. "We felt the activation," Moira continues. "Felt the Dormant Luna wake and bond with the lunar stone. Such an event has not occurred in over a thousand years. We had to see for ourselves." "See what?" I ask. Voice steadier than I feel. "Whether you are salvation or catastrophe." Aldara emerges from the packhouse. Moving fast. Face tight with concern. "Elder Moira.

POV: MicahThe vault shakes.Stone cracking. Ancient support beams groaning. The energy explosion from Neah and Kessler's contact point destabilized the entire chamber.We're fifty feet underground. In a structure built thousands of years ago. And it's collapsing."Everyone out!" Aldara shouts. "NOW!"I raise shields immediately. Golden barriers covering Sera and the nearest warriors. Protecting them from falling debris.A chunk of ceiling the size of a car crashes down. My shield catches it. Holds. But barely.The strain is immediate. Massive. I've never held this much weight before."Micah!" Sera's voice. Urgent. "You can't hold that!""I don't have to hold it long. Just long enough for you to run."She hesitates. Gold eyes meeting mine.

POV: Micah I run.Kessler over my shoulder. Vault collapsing behind us. Every instinct screaming at me to drop him and save myself.But I don't.Because dropping him makes me my father. Makes me the man who chose ambition over humanity. Who let people die in pursuit of progress.I'm not him. I refuse to be him.The tunnel shakes. Stone falling in chunks the size of cars. My shields up. Barely holding."Micah!" Sera's voice ahead. Desperate. "Leave him! You'll die!""Then I die! Keep moving!"Neah appears at the tunnel mouth. Reaching. Golden light blazing. "Give him to me! I can shield you both!"I throw Kessler forward. Into her arms. Into her golden energy.Then the tunnel gives.Complete structural collapse. A thousand tons of stone falling.I dive. Feel the weight coming down. Feel death reaching.Then golden light wraps around me. Neah's power. Pulling. Hauling.

CHAPTER 143

POV: Liam The production labs are a fortress.Reinforced walls. Military-grade security. And corrupted hybrids defending it like their lives depend on what's inside.Maybe they do."Third wave," I say into the comm. "Breach formation. Jax, take point. Marcus, cover right flank. I'll take center.""Copy that," Jax responds.I shift. Kain exploding forward. Massive black wolf with blue eyes burning like fire.The corrupted hybrids meet us at the entrance. Twenty of them. Enhanced. Stable. Deadly.But we're an army. And we're done playing defense.Kain tears through the first line. Claws ripping. Teeth tearing. Alpha fury unleashed.Jax flanks in wolf form. Gray and lethal. Military precision in every strike.Marcus coordinates the warriors. Shadow Peak wolves moving in perfect formation. Overwhelming the defenders through sheer numbers and skill.The corrupted hybrids fall back. Not
