Novel & Cerita From Ashes To Their Luna

* Power exploded outward—raw, uncontrolled, grief made manifest. The ground *shattered.* Holy Clan warriors near the blast were thrown backward, shields cracking. Cassian stumbled. Luna rose. No longer crying. No longer broken. *Incandescent.* Her crescent blazed so bright it cast shadows at midnight. The white wolf surged forward—still incomplete, but *present,* fur rippling across her arms, her spine, her face. She was not mortal anymore. Not even pretending. "You killed her," Luna said. Her voice echoed.

Maybe that's the key to everything. I closed my eyes and thought back to that day. That moment. The hunting sounds of their footsteps as they ran after us. The smell of burning flesh as they set us on fire. The screams of Lumina. FLASHBACK “Please,” I whispered hoarsely into the smoke as life slowly left my body. “Moon Goddess… whoever’s listening… give me another chance. Please… let me live differently. Let me protect her… let me have my revenge!” “Let me fight back… just once,” I muttered as the last strand of life left my body.

Ronan himself was a tall, broad-shouldered man with dark blond hair and an easy smile. He bowed. “Alpha Kael.” Kael returned the gesture. “Alpha Ronan! Welcome to Ironcrest.” Ronan’s eyes moved toward me. “And you must be the new Luna.” I smiled. “Aria Nightshade.” His brows rose slightly. “Nightshade?” “Yes.” I nodded. “Then congratulations are certainly in order.” He nodded satisfactorily. “Thank you.” I smiled. We took our seats and the meeting began. For the first hour, everything went smoothly.

The flames consumed Elara's body, carrying her spirit to the moon, to Damon, to the ancestors who had welcomed her home. The fire crackled and popped, sending sparks spiraling into the night sky like the souls of the fallen ascending to their rest. The heat was intense, forcing the gathered wolves to step back, but no one wanted to look away. This was their Alpha. Their healer. Their heart. Their Luna. She deserved to be seen until the very end, until nothing remained but ash and memory and the fierce, enduring love she had planted in every heart she had touched.

“The Moon Cages weren’t built by Vales. They were built by the first covenants—ashbound covenants—after an ashbound girl ended a war by burning the wrong king.” My skin went cold. “That’s a story.” Vesper smiled. “No, Aria. That’s a warning with a date.” She lifted her hand and touched the air near my wrist. She didn’t touch me, but the mark flared anyway, responding. I winced. “Hybrid,” Vesper said softly, as if tasting the word. “Wolf and ashbound. Not Luna. Not Lycan royalty. Something older.” Kieran’s voice went rough. “She’s my mate.”

She was staring at the sky, where thin gray smoke had begun to curl above the tree line ahead of them, rising from somewhere in the direction they'd been walking. "That's Ashwood territory," she said, her voice gone tight and flat. "That's my Alpha's own lands." "Smoke," Damon said grimly, already scanning the tree line for threats. "Which means someone got there before we did." Selene's scarred face had drained of all color. She broke into a run without another word, her wolves surging after her, and Luna barely had time to exchange one alarmed glance with Kade before they were running too, crashing through the last stretch of mist-heavy forest toward whatever waited for them on the other s

I'll never forget his words that almost brought me to tears. "My Alpha, we do not mean to disobey. But our Luna has been taken from us. Now that you have found your mate, our pack is incomplete until she has been returned to the safety of our walls. You cannot expect us to stay here and wait for you to return. Our Luna needs us. We may not be as strong as some of your warriors anymore, but we are capable and willing to fight. Please do not make us stay behind when our Luna needs us. The dishonour of not being able to do our part for our pack would put us in an early grave."

the leaders of the pack stood in front in a line the alpha,luna,beta,betafemale and the gamma all stood with pride their wolf chest had been puffed out along with the pack member. As the rays of the moon touched the furs and skin of all the werekinds they felt the power of the moon goddess blessing upon them. Not before long a howl in union sounded across the lands of all packs and woods. This howl represented gratitude to the moon goddess.

Ash helped me carry Elm into the car, while Zephyr and Aaron were getting ready. “Be careful, you two,” I said to Zephyr and Aaron, they smile and wave their hand. They took another road while transforming into their wolf form. As I was going back with Ash, Elm, Zahra, and Acacia in the same car. “This is going to work, right?” Nervously asked the Luna from Indonesia, and she took my hand and hold it tightly. “Trust me, it will.” Said Acacia to me.

“There you go. Just focus.” Jace whistled from the side. “Not perfect, but you’re getting there.” Hours passed beneath the cold night sky. Una fell countless times until her legs trembled from exhaustion. Yet each time, she rose again. Ashina watched quietly with admiration. “She’s stubborn.” Jace smirked. “A perfect mate for the future alpha.” Una immediately lost focus. Ashina took advantage of it and swept her legs from beneath her. Una landed face-first into the grassy ground.
