Torin's POV

The air in the hall did not ease even after the agreement was reached, and though the tension had shifted from confrontation into something quieter, something controlled, it remained present in every glance, in every breath, in the way no one moved too quickly as if the slightest misstep could still undo everything that had just been settled.

I remained seated for a moment longer after Nia walked away, my gaze lingering briefly on her retreating figure before I forced myself to loo

  • The Demoted Luna    Chapter 118

    The metallic tang of iron clung to the back of my throat, thick and cloying like a physical weight. I didn’t bother wiping the splash of crimson that had dried across my cheekbone, feeling it tighten against my skin as the cold northern wind swept through the valley. Beneath my boots, the ground was no longer earth but a slurry of mud and cooling gore. I stepped over the mangled remains of a rebel commander, my weight crushing his ribcage with a hollow snap that echoed against the silent treeline. He had begged for mercy ten minutes ago, but mercy was a currency I didn't trade in, especially not when the debt was treason.I kept my pace steady, my black cloak heavy with the dampness of the slaughter as I navigated the field of the fallen. My warriors were already moving among the bodies, their blades finishing the work that the initial charge had started, but I didn't look back at them. My eyes were fixed on the horizon where the jagged peaks of our ancestral home pierced the gray sky

    “Nova! You did it again!”I barely had time to sip from my half-cold coffee before Jones clapped me on the back, grinning ear to ear.“Twenty-three years, and no one could touch the Black Ribbon Killer,” he said, spinning his chair toward me. “Until you decided to roll in and embarrass the Bureau.”“Don’t exaggerate,” I smirked, shaking my head. “It was a team effort.”Mara raised her cup. “Team effort my ass. You connected the pattern no one else could. If you didn’t catch that symbol carved on the wrist in the old 2003 photo, we’d still be twiddling our thumbs.”“Stop,” I said, but a smile tugged at my lips.“Toast!” shouted Jacobs, raising his water bottle dramatically. “To Detective Nova Cross. Slayer of cold cases, heartbreaker of perps, and legend of Halemore PD!”Everyone joined in, laughing and clinking plastic water bottles and coffee mugs. Even Captain Reyes stepped out of his office to give me a tight-lipped nod of approval before vanishing back behind his door.“You better

    Ella's POV"Hello, is this Miss Ella Spencer? Congratulations, you have passed the final interview stage for the assistant manager position at the Blumtech Corporation. You are to resume on Monday, and please see the attached file in the email we sent for any other necessary information you might need to know. Once again, congratulations."The professional voice on the other end of the line faded into a sharp dial tone. I stood completely frozen in the middle of our cramped living room, the smartphone pressed hard against my ear. For a few agonizing seconds, my brain refused to process the words until the reality of what he had just said finally crashed through my defenses.A breathless, euphoric scream tore from my throat as I leaped into the air. I turned on my heel and bolted down the narrow hallway, my heart hammering against my ribs like a trapped bird. I threw open the door to my best friend’s bedroom with enough force to rattle the frames on the wall, and without giving her a s

    Darien's pov I walked back into my office and slammed the heavy oak door shut behind me. My head was pounding, the skin of my jaw still throbbing from the brutal punch Raphael had delivered the night before. I did not care about my face right now. The entire northern alliance was about to collapse into a bloody civil war if I did not control the narrative immediately.I sat down at my desk and closed my eyes, forcing my mind to open the pack link. I bypassed the local channels and reached across the border, targeting a specific frequency.*Darren, do you hear me?* I sent the message through the mindlink, my mental voice sharp and commanding.It took a few seconds before my Beta’s voice echoed back in my head. *I hear you, Alpha. What is the situation? The banquet hall is still in absolute chaos over the triplets.**Listen to me very carefully,* I commanded. *I need you to intercept and keep off any intel that might arrive at the Blood Thorne pack from our territory. Block the regular

    Third person pov The guards seeing dead Liora body on Nia's lap froze in shock. The heavy silence of the warehouse district vanished instantly. Dozens of Dark Crest Moon warriors rushed forward. They immediately circled Nia and Kiera in a tight formation. Every single guard pointed their weapon directly at Nia's chest. Rifles were loaded and blades hummed in the gray morning light.Nia sat on the cold gravel path. The weight of the dead elder was heavy across her knees. Blood pooled around her clothes, soaking through the fabric. She did not move. She did not even try to wipe the crimson stains from her hands. Her eyes were wide, staring blankly at the brick wall in front of her.Kiera stepped forward instantly. She threw herself between the weapons and Nia. Her hands were raised high in the air to show she was unarmed. Her face was pale, but her eyes were fierce with protective rage."Lower your weapons right now!" Kiera shouted. "This is all a misunderstanding! We did not do this!"

    Nia's POV The announcement about my children echoed through the massive rafters of the banquet hall, and my world completely shattered in a single second. The festive music died instantly, replaced by a sudden, deafening wave of panic that rushed through the crowd of warriors. My heart hammered violently against my ribs as I looked at the empty space where my three beautiful pups had been playing just moments ago. Vileen’s laughter was gone, and the energetic shouts of Vince and Vincenzo were nowhere to be heard. I stumbled back against the heavy wooden table, my hands trembling so hard that I could barely keep my balance. Torin rushed into the hall a moment later, his face pale and his silver eyes wide with a rare, terrified urgency. He ran straight to my side, throwing his massive arms around me as my knees finally buckled under the sheer weight of the terror."Where are they, Torin?" I cried out, the hot tears finally spilling over my eyelashes and wetting the front of his leather

    The moment we crossed into the Blood Thorne courtyard, I could already tell Narek was barely holding himself together because his breathing had become uneven again and his face looked slightly pale beneath the afternoon light. The poison might have been suppressed temporarily but the journey back f

    Nia's POV I stepped forward immediately, my body moving in front of Torin before I could even think properly, my eyes locking on Liora with a cold stare while anger crawled slowly through my chest. The moment I saw the satisfaction on her face, something inside me twisted badly because that woman
