The Ancient Awaits Novels & Stories

And from the shadows of the city, something ancient stirred… watching. And waiting. ---

“Luna, Alpha is waiting for you downstairs. Guests have arrived and the auspicious time will start soon.” One of my personal maids came to inform me. Hearing her word, my heart skipped a beat, and it felt like my life is close to its ending. I wanted to turn around and flee from this place, but I was helpless. “Give me some minutes. I will be there.” I said, and she left after bowing to me. In an hour, the moon will be at its highest point and then they will perform the ceremony.

I watched as he coughed, trying to breathe. ‘’Don’t forget who made you what you are, Anthony, don’t be foolish. Killing you would be a waste’’ Darius warned before Cassian said ‘’ Let’s go’’ Cassian said as he walked forward while Darius and I followed from behind. ‘’Wait, let me help’’ Anthony’s weak voice pleaded from behind ‘’ Then keep up, Pup.’’ I didn’t slow down, you don't deserve to be waited for ‘’

Rowan slowly shook his head. "No." "It never left." "It's been waiting." "Waiting for what?" His silver eyes held hers steadily. "For you..." "...to remember who you truly are." Outside the palace, thunder rolled across the mountains as dark clouds gathered over Nightcrest. Far away, deep within an ancient forest hidden from the world... A pair of glowing white eyes slowly opened. And for the first time in centuries... The ancient wolf had awakened.

The moment they landed, she abandoned them. "Go by yourselves. I need to find Nora first." Ignoring their calls behind her, she rushed straight to the gates of Northbridge University. She waited there for an entire day, but she never saw her husband or daughter. "Nora Duncan? There isn't anyone by that name in this year's medical school cohort." The student volunteer welcoming freshmen looked at her strangely. "Ma'am, did you remember wrong?" Marissa's mind went completely blank. How could that be?

the Ancient queries incredulously. Aren, maintaining a steady gaze on the Ancient Elder, conveys his unwavering resolve not to be swayed or intimidated. He has chosen his path and is prepared to confront whatever consequences may arise. The news of the forthcoming ceremony during spring's first full moon swiftly circulates among those present, sparking an excited murmur. Seated on the throne, Aren exudes an air of authority and determination. He has made it clear that he is ready to face any challenge and forge his own way, even if it means challenging longstanding traditions.

He sat at a table by the window while sipping his coffee and enjoying the view. Ian was a graduate student in the department of anesthesiology in the medical faculty and a prodigy. He was renowned on campus for being unattainable. Rumor had it that he'd never dated anyone throughout his seven years in college. Ian Sadler, who had never been involved with other women, was my in-game partner! Pansy pushed me from behind, giving me a thumbs-up for encouragement. I staggered forward, appearing before Ian. "Uh… Are you SaltFist, Ian?"

He easily dragged me back to the past I least wanted to face. "Rowena, how long are you going to keep playing me?"

Because deep inside, where the bond used to be, something else had started to stir. Something ancient. Something waiting.

“That’s exactly what someone here to fight would say.” Cassian smiled faintly. “I expected that reaction.” Varek stepped forward again. “Then explain why you’re here.” Cassian’s expression grew more serious. “I came to warn you.” Aria felt Nyra stir instantly. Listen. Aria narrowed her eyes. “Warn us about what?” Cassian looked toward the dark mountains far beyond the forest. His golden eyes dimmed slightly. “Something ancient has awakened.” A chill ran through the courtyard. Selene frowned.
