Novel & Cerita Levana Lunar Chronicles

* Prologue Date 14. The Lunaria Forest, which had been peaceful and serene, was filled with excitement and commotion. This was because the Xylvaneth Pack was celebrating, releasing years of worry. Nature bore silent witness to their happiness. Under the light of the full moon, the swaying trees of Lunaria welcomed the arrival of the Xylvaneth Pack. The nocturnal animals sang along with their spirited footsteps. Each cry of joy seemed to harmonize beautifully with the universe.

she asked. "Anything on Elara Nightshade," I answered. "And anything about the last time the river dried." We rummaged through ancient scrolls and cracked leather-bound books. After hours of searching, Ava pulled out a journal—the cover worn, the ink faded. It belonged to Elara. I turned the pages slowly, reading her entries. Her words painted a story not unlike my own—a Luna forced to navigate betrayal, alliances, and an unrelenting prophecy. She wrote of darkness that threatened the pack and of a choice that had to be made—one that could either save Silverclaw or doom it.

It was deliberately hidden in plain sight, blending in with the rest of his office. I scanned the titles again, my mind racing. Was this connected to the slaves? To the strange way he’d been monitoring them lately? I pulled another book from the shelf, this one titled Lunar Legends and Their Secrets. As I flipped through it, a piece of paper fell out and fluttered to the ground. I bent down, picking it up carefully. It was a handwritten note, the ink smudged but still legible: "Potential Moonbound Wolves. Monitor closely. Signs: delayed shifts, heightened instincts, unexplained resilience."

Her greatest concerns were validated by the energy rush she experienced. Raven whispered, her words dripping with hate, "She's awakened." "The lineage of the Silver Luna endures." One of her henchmen moved forward, bowing his head. "Mistress, what should we do?" A menacing smirk curved Raven's lips. Before she poses a threat, we eliminate her. Bring the others together. The time has come.

However, Ophelia could not shake off the feeling of familiarity she felt. Lucien raised the blade. “I don’t know how you survived, but you’re too late. You can’t stop me.” He laughed. “Actually, you’re right on time to have a front row seat to the complete emergence of the first Vrykolakas. Now, we just have to wait for the moon to be at its peak. And when he rises, the world will bow to me.” Aaron stepped forward. “You bastard. Aren’t you being a little too cocky?”

Nathaniel’s body lay still, the pendant shattered at his side, its dark power extinguished. The figure lowered their hood, revealing a woman with eyes like twin constellations, her face ageless yet marked by centuries of wisdom. “I am Lysara, Keeper of the Lunar Veil,” she said, her voice resonating through the bond, calming Alina within Autumn. “I am the last of the Callisto elders, hidden beyond the packs’ reach when the Order rose. Your blood, Autumn, and your brother’s, awakened me.”

“Return her to me.” I exhale a sharp laugh. “Someone of yours? Now, that is funny.” I step forward, eyes locked on his. “From what I remember, Louisa left your pack thirteen years ago. That’s over a damn decade, Gaines. If she ever wanted to be your Luna, don’t you think she would have found her way back to you?” I raise a brow. “But she didn’t, did she?” His face darkens as a growl rises in his chest.

The scenario turned awkward, and the tension built just watching it unfold. “Did I ask something wrong?” “No,” he answered. “I lead them like an alpha, but I'm not an alpha. In the early days when the curse began in families, some had crescent moons as their mark. The alphas get a full moon. That hasn't happened in over ten generations.” “But wolves still need a leader,” Orion chipped in. “That's why Mr Franklin, being the one with more experience, is doing that for us.” “Are we done lecturing the newbie so we can get back to business at hand?” Cameron spoke impatiently.

When the light flared, the moons bled. “How long?” Zevran asked. Kaelira listened. The pulse under her skin matched the basin’s rhythm, and there, between beats, was the telltale drag of an eclipse beginning to imagine itself. “Before the Black Moon rises?” She exhaled. “Days.” Zevran looked at her then—not as a king weighing a weapon, not as a soldier measuring a risk. As a man who had learned to count breaths with someone else’s life threaded through his own. “We can’t walk that distance in time.”
