By sunrise, the council hall was already crowded.Word of the northern territory’s refusal had travelled faster than anyone expected. By the time Liana entered the hall, several Alpha leaders were already arguing across the long table.“They refused protection.”“They refused the alliance.”“They may be testing how far Mooncrest is willing to bend.”Liana slowed near the doorway.For a moment, she simply listened.It was strange how quickly peace could begin to resemble war. There were no weapons in the hall, no soldiers waiting outside, but the same suspicion had returned to everyone’s faces.Kael stood at the head of the table, his hands resting against the wood.Ronan was beside him. Darius sat across from Garrick, while Varek remained slightly apart from the others, watching the discussion with the quiet attention of someone who had spent too many years expecting betrayal.Selene was there too.She had taken a seat beside Liana’s usual place, but she did not move when Liana approa

The journey north took most of the morning.Liana travelled with Selene and two trusted guards, though the guards remained several paces behind them. Kael had wanted to send more wolves, but Liana had refused. She understood his concern, but arriving at the northern border with an army would defeat the entire purpose of the meeting.The Crown remained in Mooncrest.For the first time since it had become whole, Liana left it behind without wondering whether she was making a mistake.The mountains grew steeper as they travelled.By midday, the trees had thinned, revealing a settlement built between two rocky slopes. Unlike Mooncrest, there were no tall walls surrounding it. Instead, the northern pack had built smaller watchtowers along the ridges, allowing them to see anyone approaching from a distance.Selene noticed them too.“They’ve been expecting trouble.”“Probably for a long time,” Liana said.They stopped at the border.Three wolves approached.The one in front was an older man

I returned to Mooncrest three days later.The northern territory had not joined the alliance.And that was fine.For now, Rowan had agreed to exchange information about threats along the borders. It was a small agreement, but it was one he had made without pressure.I had learned that peace did not always begin with a handshake between Alphas.Sometimes it began with two people agreeing not to become enemies.The moment I entered Mooncrest, however, I was reminded that peace had a cost.The eastern families were still living in temporary shelters.Some homes had been damaged during the fighting. Others had lost livestock, food stores, or members of their families.The council had spent days discussing borders and alliances, but none of those conversations could rebuild a destroyed home.So I decided to see the damage myself.Kael joined me.We walked through the eastern district without an escort, stopping wherever people needed to speak.A carpenter showed us a roof that had collapse

Nothing happened.For several seconds, I stood in front of the Crown, waiting for the ancient voice to return.It didn’t.The warmth beneath my feet faded until the stone became cold again.I looked at Seraphine.“That was it?”She didn’t answer.“Seraphine?”Her eyes remained fixed on the Crown.“I don’t know.”That answer unsettled me more than any prophecy could have.“You said the Crown responds to intention.”“It does.”“Then why didn’t it answer?”“Perhaps because you asked it to decide something that belongs to you.”I frowned.“But I asked what would happen if I gave it back.”“And perhaps it has no answer.”I looked at the Crown again.For so long, I had believed the ancient artifact held the answers to my life. My bloodline had led me to it. The prophecy had led me to it. Every secret seemed to lead back to it.But now, standing before it, I realized something uncomfortable.Maybe the Crown had never been meant to tell me what to do.Maybe I had simply wanted it to.I steppe

Selene found me beneath the old oak before sunset.I had been sitting there for almost an hour, watching the last light disappear between the branches. After everything that had happened, the quiet still felt strange. There was always something waiting to be solved before. A threat. A decision. A secret.Now, for once, there was nothing demanding an answer from me.At least, not tonight.Selene stopped a few steps away.“Can I sit?”I moved over without answering.She lowered herself beside me, smoothing the skirt of her dress before resting her hands in her lap. For several moments, neither of us spoke.There had been a time when silence between us felt easy.Lately, it had felt like something we were both learning again.“I’ve been thinking,” she finally said.I glanced at her. “About what?”She gave a small, almost embarrassed laugh.“About who I am supposed to be now.”The words stayed between us.I didn’t rush to answer.Selene looked toward the trees.“For most of my life, every
