CHAPTER TWENTY ONE

NEW LIFE, NEW PACK— THE ALPHA'S LUNA Anna stood on the balcony of Chris’s cabin, fingers curled around the wooden railing as cold mountain air swept through her hair. Below, silver lanterns glowed between pine trees, illuminating winding dirt paths and cabins tucked carefully into the forest like secrets. Somewhere deeper in the woods, wolves howled. The type that showed a certain connection. The sound rolled through her chest like a heartbeat. “Our wolves greet the moon every night,” Chris said softly behind her. “It reminds us who we are.” Anna turned toward him slowly, even after everything... after discovering the truth about the packs, after learning what she truly was to him, after leaving Millbrook behind... she still sometimes forgot how breathtaking he looked.

CHAPTER TWENTY-TWO

CRACKS IN THE PACKAnna stood near the edge of the training grounds, her boots were damp from the dew-covered grass as wolves sparred in the clearing below. The sounds of grunts, snapping branches, and clashing bodies echoed through the forest while the early sun filtered weakly through the trees.The Blood Moon Pack never truly rested, not even after nights of celebration.Chris stood at the center of the field, issuing commands with calm authority while two warriors circled each other nearby. His voice carried easily across the clearing, firm without needing to shout.“Again,” he ordered.One of the younger wolves groaned after being thrown onto his back for the third time.“That was unfair,” the boy muttered, rubbing dirt from his jaw.“It was sloppy,” Chris corrected. “There’s a difference.”A few nearby warriors chuckled even Anna smiled softly to herself.Watching Chris lead the pack still fascinated her. Back in Millbrook, he’d always hidden parts of himself behind careful smil

CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE

THE WEIGHT OF FEARThe nightmare refused to leave her, even after dawn broke over the mountains, Anna still felt its claws wrapped around her ribs.She stood near the kitchen sink inside Chris’s cabin, staring blankly at the steam curling from her untouched tea while rain tapped softly against the windows. The territory outside looked muted beneath the storm clouds, the usually vibrant forest swallowed by gray mist.Chris watched her from across the room. “You haven’t blinked in like two minutes,” he said carefully.Anna forced herself to look away from the window. “Umm… Sorry.”“You don’t have to apologize for being scared.”“I’m not scared,” she lied weakly.Chris raised an eyebrow. Anna sighed, dragging both hands down her face. “Okay, fine. I’m terrified.”He crossed the room immediately. The floor creaked softly beneath his weight before his hands settled gently at her waist.“You’re safe here, Anna,” he murmured.“That’s exactly what worries me.”Chris frowned slightly. Anna tur

CHAPTER TWENTY-FOUR

THE WARNING IN BLOOD The forest floor had turned to mud beneath Anna’s boots as she followed Chris and Steve deeper between the trees, her heart pounding harder with every step. Around them, several Blood Moon warriors moved silently through the storm with grim expressions. Nobody spoke to each other, the tension alone was enough to suffocate the air. Anna’s Luna instincts screamed louder the farther they walked into the forest. She could feel death and fear lingering in the woods like smoke. Her stomach twisted violently when the scent of rot and violence hit her. Chris immediately reached back for her hand without turning around. “You don’t have to see this.” “I do… I don't mind Chris,” Anna whispered bravely because she was Luna now and these wolves were her family too. The patrol finally stopped near a clearing hidden between massive pine trees. Anna froze the moment she saw the body. A young Blood Moon scout lay sprawled near the roots of an overturned tree, rainwater mi

CHAPTER TWENTY FIVE

THE WOLF AT THE GATE Warriors surged toward the outer border while terrified pack members pulled children deeper into the territory. The air vibrated with snarls, panic, and the sharp scent of adrenaline. Anna couldn’t move, her eyes remained locked on the enormous black wolf standing beyond the gates. Its crimson eyes twinkled in the moonlight and that smile… Wolves weren’t supposed to smile. Chris stepped in front of her instantly, his body shielding hers as a deep growl rumbled through his chest. “Get everyone out of here,” he ordered sharply. Steve was already shouting commands across the clearing. “Move to the inner territory now! Warriors to the gate!” The black wolf didn’t attack, it simply watched. It stood watching them panic. Like this was entertainment. Anna felt nausea twist violently in her stomach. “That’s him,” she whispered. Chris’s shoulders stiffened. Draven. Even from a distance, the rogue Alpha radiated something deeply wrong. Not just power, something d

CHAPTER TWENTY SIX

FRACTURES The territory did not sleep after Draven’s visit. By sunrise, exhaustion hung over Blood Moon like fog. Warriors rotated through patrols with tired eyes. Pack members whispered nervously outside cabins. Even the forest itself felt tensed and quieter than usual, as though the mountains were holding their breath. Anna stood near the council fire wrapped in one of Chris’s jackets, watching wolves move anxiously through camp. She felt their fear more deeper than ever. Draven had poisoned something the moment he stepped into their territory. “Hey… you need food.” Anna glanced up as Steve handed her a plate of roasted beef and corn. She accepted it absently. “Thanks.” “You’re absentminded Anna.” “What?” “You’re staring into space, mentally carrying the emotional trauma of an entire pack.” Despite every

CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

THE TRAITOR AMOMG USBranches whipped violently against Anna’s arms as she and Chris sprinted through the forest toward the eastern ridge. Another agonized howl shattered the night, it was closer now.Chris’s grip on her hand tightened painfully as panic surged through the mate bond. Around them, warriors rushed through the trees in partial shifts, fur and claws flashing between shadows. Something had gone terribly wrong.By the time they reached the eastern patrol line, chaos had already erupted. Two Blood Moon wolves lay bleeding near the ridge while healers scrambled around them. Warriors crowded the area snarling furiously at the dark forest beyond.Steve stood near the center of the clearing with blood streaked across his jaw.Chris immediately moved toward him. “What happened?”Steve looked furious. “The western patrol were ambushed.” Anna’s guts flipped awkwardly.“How many?” Chris demanded.“Three were injured and one missing.”The clearing fell silent.Chris’s expression turn

CHAPTER TWENTY-EIGHT

THE EDGE OF WARThe forest became a battlefield. Snarls ripped through the darkness as wolves crashed violently between the trees, claws tearing into dirt and bark alike. Anna stumbled backward just as two rogues collided beside her, one of Blood Moon’s warriors slamming the other into a pine hard enough to crack wood.Tyler dropped to his knees coughing violently, blood streaking down his throat.“Tyler!” Steve barked, fighting off another rogue before shoving his way toward him.Chris had fully shifted. Anna’s breath caught every time she saw it.His wolf towered over the others, enormous and silver-black skin gleamed beneath the moonlight, eyes glowing molten gold with pure Alpha fury. The sheer force radiating from him shook the clearing as he tore through Draven’s rogues with terrifying precision.A rogue lunged toward Anna from the shadows. Before she could react, Chris’s wolf slammed into him midair with a snarl so violent it echoed through the mountains. The rogue hit the grou

CHAPTER TWENTY-NINE

WHEN FEAR BECOMES FANGSThunder rolled endlessly above the mountains while heavy rain battered the Blood Moon territory, turning pathways into rivers of mud. Wolves moved quickly between cabins with lowered heads, tension visible in every hurried step.Anna stood beneath the shelter outside the healer’s cabin watching patrol groups prepare for another sweep of the borders. Every face looked tired. Every conversation carried unease beneath it.The pack bond felt raw today, like a wound refusing to close.“You’re doing it again.”Anna glanced sideways as Carlyn, the older healer who’d practically adopted her since arriving, approached carrying bundles of herbs.“Doing what?”“Trying to carry everyone’s emotions by yourself.” Carlyn handed her a steaming cup. “Here drink.”Anna accepted it gratefully. “Is it obvious?”“To anyone with functioning eyes.”Despite herself, Anna smiled faintly.Carlyn’s expression softened as she studied her. “You’re a good Luna.”The words caught Anna off gu

CHAPTER THIRTY

THE BRAKING POINT The rain did not stop for three days. By the fourth morning, Blood Moon territory felt hollow and gloomy.Patrol wolves moved through camp like ghosts, exhausted and irritable. The once lively sounds of laughter and teasing had disappeared completely, replaced by whispers that died the moment Chris walked past.Anna noticed every single one, the bond forced her to.Fear lingered constantly now, pressing against her mind until her head throbbed almost endlessly. Distrust spread through the pack like infection, subtle but deadly.And Chris…Chris was unraveling slowly right in front of her. He barely slept anymore, barely ate. Every hour brought another patrol report, another security check, another argument in the council hall.He carried the weight of the entire pack alone even when people stood beside him.Anna found him before sunrise near the training grounds, shirt soaked with sweat despite the freezing air. He drove punch after punch into a wooden training post
