Semua Bab REBIRTH: I REFUSE TO BE LUNA: Bab 181 - Bab 190

Nyssa's POV:The walk back to the council wing of the meeting hall was completely silent. Judging by the skips she was making as we walked, Elena clearly had so many things she wanted to say, but she could read the room, and she knew that right now, I was not willing or ready to answer anyone’s questions.Eventually, when she realized where I was going to, she leaned in closer, sneaked in a hug and ran off, leaving me standing speechless and smiling.I flashed her a smile, and turned down the final corridor to the meeting hall. Before I even reached the large oak doors, I could already hear the echoes of the raised voices.Somehow, they were already arguing, and judging by just how loud their voices were, I could tell this had been going on for a while. I frowned, and slowed my steps.I needed to understand what was happening before I walked in. Just like I had expected, the meeting had started without me. I wasn’t shocked, I knew that with everything that had happened yesterday, the e

Blade's POV:Blade spent the entire meeting watching every elder. He kept his hands behind his back, but his gaze was locked on every suspicious twitch or glance from an elder.Every time an elder shifted their posture, Blade immediately locked on them. Ever since the moment Damien had told him that there were traitors in the pack, he had stopped seeing everyone as his friends.Now, they were all suspects, even his father.That was why he immediately heightened his senses when Nyssa told the elders about the traitor. The room had frozen in shock, Blade hadn’t.The moment he realized what Nyssa was going to do, his eyes began to sweep across the council. He began to catalog the different reactions of the elders.Some of them were clearly confused, others were shocked, but a select few of them exchanged glances that could only be called suspicious.Rowan was the only elder who had a reaction that he could only describe as muted. His face was annoyingly unreadable, and that simple fact ir

Damien's POV:The next few seconds after I spoke, I was charged. The question lingered among us longer than I had expected."Are you the traitor?"For the first time since I had known Elder Rowan, he looked completely stunned. His eyes widened, and his lips parted in pure shock.Seconds later, all the color immediately drained off his face. More emotions were flickering across his face than I had ever seen.His expression shifted through disbelief, confusion, and shock before finally settling on something else; resignation.Trying to convey confidence, he looked me in the eyes for a full second before shaking his head,"No," he kept his voice steady and calm, "I am not the traitor."Silence settled over the room as I mused not just over his words, but also over his reactions.Before I could speak, Rowan let out a slow breath and continued."I am not the traitor, but I won’t lie,” he paused and shrugged. “I have been expecting that question, I just did not expect it so soon.”I didn't r

Damien's POV:The realization that I had been wrong all along settled heavily in my chest as I began to walk away from Rowan.I had always known that there was something fishy about all of these, and the moment I had found myself alone with Rowan inside that small room, I had immediately known the answer to the question I had in my heart.The old elder had not even needed to convince me with his words. His emotions and expressions had done that. I had seen confusion, fear and horror in the eyes of hundreds of men, and his had been genuine.I can still remember the way his eyes lit up in shock the moment they landed on the maps. That was the moment that I concluded in my mind that, without a doubt, Rowan was not the traitor.That was not the reaction a wolf would have if they had been caught. No, that was the reaction of a wolf who had just realized that someone was trying to frame him.Eventually, I forced myself to push Rowan out of my mind, and focus more on the future now that our m

The Shadow's POV:One of the things that the shadow had learned over the past couple of years was the simple fact that the night belonged to him. With a warm smile on his face, the shadow looked up at the night sky and nodded.It was the night of a full moon, and the light of the moon bathed the entire estate in a warm, silver light. It was a beautiful sight, especially for a pack that would soon be his.The shadow walked through the estate with measured and clearly unhurried steps. He was an elder. Why would he care about what anyone thought?He had no doubt in his mind that there were some wolves watching him right now, but he didn’t care.If you were to ask pretty much anyone in the pack who the most respected elder in the pack was, his name would be the first one o their lips. He was, after all, the loyal pillar of the Viscount Pack.Every wolf he passed stopped and bowed respectfully at him,"Good evening, Elder." Some guards stopped and greeted him with bright smiles on their fac
