Teo Sunbearer Trials Novels & Stories

Right after Ethan and I announced our mating ceremony, his childhood sweetheart from the pack, Sophia, came rushing back. And she flat-out demanded I go through a "bloodline trial." "Someone like you, a wolf outcast, you're definitely up to no good. You have to pass this month-long bloodline trial before our pack will accept your mating!" With Ethan basically giving them the nod, Sophia and her pack betas put me through hell. They deliberately messed with my moonlight alchemy circle, almost tore my mind apart.

He wore black today, his expression carved from ice. He didn’t look at me. That hurt more than I expected. A tall man stepped forward onto the ceremonial platform, bowing respectfully toward Kael before turning to the Arena. “Today marks the beginning of the Luna Trials,” he announced. “A sacred rite meant to test the one who would stand beside our Alpha King.” The crowd cheered in anticipation. “The first trial is martial combat,” he continued. “It will test strength, skill, endurance, and adaptability.” I almost scoffed.

"There are two grand trials: The Moon Trial is a trial of strength, speed, and endurance. A race across dangerous territories under the full moon. The first ten Alphas to reach the finish line qualify. And then… The Sun Trial is one of wisdom, loyalty, and trust. Our Lunas have to solve riddles and protect their mates under the scorching sun. He paused before adding weight to his final words: “The first pair to finish the Sun Trial gets 50% of the total score. The remaining 50% will be decided in the grand election. The highest total… wins the crown.” The statement went through the audience like a spark that inspired enthusiasm—and fear. Don squeezed my hand softly. Beta Eric continued: Toda

She stayed quiet, her gaze flickering back to the shimmering water. “To be honest,” I continued, my voice steady, "at first, I felt nothing but resentment toward Sano. He was arrogant, he played games, and he made it painfully clear that a mate was the last thing he wanted. I didn't choose this bond any more than you did. But we both know you can't outrun the Moon Goddess. However... if you truly believe she made a mistake, if you think that bond is a flaw in the stars, then prove it. Beat me. Win this Trial with everything you have. If you stand as the victor, it means the Goddess chose you over the bond, and I won't do a single thing to stop you from taking your place beside him."

The trials were conducted in spirit of keeping the tribe entertained, enhancing kinship with each other and to determine their status amongst the tribe. In last quarter of the moon was the trial of songs. Members of the Antares tribe gathered around to listen the songs of those striving to be blood bearers. If the First King appeased by the song, he would blow a gust of wind carrying jasmine petals and the singer would be declared as chosen. If the wind carries stench of a rotten meat, then the First King despises it and the singer is no longer eligible for next trials. Those that did not get reactions also may proceed to next trials.

I didn't need her negativity today. " I know each one of you knows the rules and requirements. But I will still give you a little brief."He said, "The challenge consists of two parts: the Moon Trial and the Sun Trial. The Moon Trial is a test of strength, speed, and endurance, where the Alphas and Lunas have to race across the land under the full moon, facing various obstacles and enemies along the way. The first ten Alphas to reach the finish line will qualify for the second part of the challenge. "

Mandatory participation. “Good afternoon, everyone.” The previous Alpha’s voice was deep and strong demanding the attention of the room. “Welcome to the beginning of the Luna Trials. It’s great to see so many wanting to participate for the chance to be the next Luna of the Ash Mount pack.” Cassy snorted and was promptly elbowed by Alex. “Other packs have sent their own candidates for the Trials. Please welcome them and enjoy some healthy competition with our guests.” Another snort, another elbow. Worth it.

Just a simple word like I didn't deserve a proper explanation. Unease gnawed at my insides as I recalled the reaction of the Council to Ronan's proposal. What exactly had Ronan gotten me into? “What are these trials?” I asked, finally. He stopped walking. “A series of tests—spiritual, mental, physical. Dangerous ones. Not many survive them. They’re ancient, sacred, and only the true Moonborn has ever been said to pass all three.” I swallowed. My throat felt dry. “You want me… to do that? Seriously?While I’m…”

The woman with the ginger hair asked sarcastically. "Your mouth is going to get you in trouble, Sarah!" The hunky man hissed at the ginger haired woman. Hazel prayed that the woman with the tiny voice would continue what she was saying. "Anywho, as I was saying, the Alpha is looking for a stargazer." Hazel could not see them and she did not want to risk glancing at them. She didn't want to get caught but she could feel the aggressive tension between the ginger haired woman and the tiny voiced woman.

“No one questions the Goddess. But we question her vessel. The Blessed Luna bears light unlike any before her—light that could either heal or consume. We must be sure.” Aria, standing beside Kaelen, felt the air thicken around her. “You mean to test me.” Bran nodded. “The Luna’s Trials. Strength. Wisdom. Sacrifice. If she passes, the council will kneel. If she fails…” His eyes hardened. “The pack must reconsider its faith.” Kaelen’s hand slammed down on the stone table. “No one touches her. No one tests her. She’s already proven herself in battle, in healing, in leadership!”
