"Darlene, the canyon floor... it’s reading as Tactical Debt!" Leo’s voice rang out, his indigo runes turning a brilliant, celestial sapphire. My son was kneeling at the edge of the obsidian glass, his hands moving through the data-rain as if he were catching bullets. "The Primal Front is built on the Memory of the First Defeat!

“Take him to his mate and raise the Dragon of the Wind.” THUD! THUD! THUD! Lavi can hear heavy footsteps approaching the army from somewhere but he does not open his eyes. Damien and his army look up to find several wolf-like skeletal creatures glaring at them with red eyes. Their blood thirst is easy to feel even from afar. Timur, Leo, Aryan, and Polina step forward to stand with Damien. All of them are holding out their swords, waiting for the attack. “And thus, the Second Great War begins,” Timur mutters.

“You are rare.” My mother’s hand flies to her mouth. My father stiffens beside me. “The Second Mark exists to restore balance,” the Alpha King continues. “But it comes at a cost.” My heart pounds loudly in my ears. “What kind of cost?” “Pain. Conflict. Bloodshed.” The words hit hard. “If the bond is rejected,” he says, looking directly at me, “it will rot. And that rot will spread—to your wolf, your pack, and eventually the realm.”

“You need to find a mother for your children.” The room went still.. “Azrik,” Mother snapped softly.. Mother approached slowly, her heels clicking softly against the marble floor. “You can’t be serious,” she whispered, voice low, almost venomous. “It’s too soon.” He didn’t turn. “It’s never too soon,” he replied quietly. “Obsidian Vale does not pause for grief, and neither can Kael.

ELIZA'S POV For the past few days, I threw myself into the rigorous training of my secret army, pushing every Lycan warrior to their limits. Fifteen thousand warriors stood under my command, divided into offensive and defensive units. The offensive teams drilled relentlessly, practicing rotating assault tactics that ensured no squad ever exhausted itself completely before the next wave took over.

“To Ajax, the eldest, the Black City shall be entrusted. It shall serve as the headquarters of our operations, the base of authority of the Wolf Territory. Ajax will precede over all realms and decide their operations. Here, the court stands, and the Alpha of the pack stays. The Black City will serve as the capital of the Territory. Ajax will lead the Midnight Legion.” “Ares, known for his strategic mind and economic acumen, shall inherit the Sunlit Reservoir. Rich in resources and blessed with prosperity, it shall thrive under his guidance. He must see to it that the continent is well-fed and not a single child is starved. He will lead Helios Pack, who now serves the Midnight Legion.”
