Emilia's POV

Sleep would not come.

No matter how tightly I shut my eyes, my thoughts kept returning to everything that had happened over the past few days.

Darian's rejection.

The poison.

Wesley's protection.

And the unfamiliar warmth that settled in my chest whenever he was near.

I turned onto my side with a quiet sigh.

"You're thinking about him again," my wolf teased.

"I'm not."

"Liar."

I pressed my face into my pillow.

"He doesn't even know I'm his mate."

"Not yet."

    Emilia's POVThe morning sun bathed Willowbrook Academy in gold, yet the atmosphere was anything but peaceful.Whispers moved through every corridor.Students stared openly as Wesley walked beside me.Some lowered their heads in respect.Others quickly looked away when they realized I had noticed them.News of the battle beneath the Hall of Ancients had spread throughout the academy overnight.There was no secrecy left.Everyone knew my name.Everyone knew I carried the Heart of Selene."You don't have to keep looking at them," Wesley said quietly."I'm trying not to.""They're curious.""They're terrified.""Both."I sighed."I never wanted any of this.""I know."His voice remained gentle."But sometimes destiny does not ask what we want."Before I could answer, Liam hurried toward us, carrying another bundle of ancient books beneath one arm."I've been looking everywhere for you."Judging by the excitement in his eyes, he had discovered something important."What happened?"

    Emilia's POVThe moment James issued the order, chaos erupted in the Hall of Ancients.Rogue wolves surged forward with savage snarls, their claws screeching against the stone floor. Dark witches подняли their staffs and unleashed bolts of black magic that lit the chamber in violent flashes."Wesley!" I cried.He moved faster than I could track.With a thunderous roar, he tore through the first line of wolves, his silver claws cutting through the darkness. One attacker slammed into a pillar, while another was hurled across the chamber."You'll never reach her!" Wesley growled.Liam stood beside him, ancient runes circling his hands."Celestial Flames!"Blue fire burst from the floor, driving several dark witches backward. Their screams echoed as the enchanted flames consumed their shadow spells.Still, more enemies flooded into the chamber."They just keep coming!" Liam shouted.James remained near the entrance, observing the battle with an unsettling smile."You're wasting your stren

    Emilia's POVSleep never came.Every time I closed my eyes, I heard the Moon Goddess's voice echoing inside my head."Trust your heart."Those words refused to leave me.The academy was strangely quiet after the Alpha Council departed, but the silence felt unnatural, as though Willowbrook itself was holding its breath.A soft knock interrupted my thoughts."Come in."The door opened slowly.Wesley stepped inside, dressed in a simple black shirt instead of his academy uniform. The morning sunlight filtering through the curtains softened his usually intimidating appearance."I thought you might still be awake."I smiled faintly."I don't think I'll be sleeping anytime soon."He walked toward the window before folding his arms."I figured."For a moment, neither of us spoke.Then he turned to face me."How are you really feeling?"I hesitated."Scared."It was the first honest answer I had given anyone."My entire life has been a lie.""I don't know who I really am anymore."He slowly sa

  • The Lycan king's Claim    Chapter 17: Judgment of the Alpha Council

    Emilia's POVThe words echoed in my mind."...save their world... or destroy it."My heartbeat pounded in my ears.Outside the infirmary windows, hundreds of torches illuminated the academy grounds. The Alpha Council stood beyond the gates, their warriors arranged in perfect formation beneath the full moon.None of them appeared welcoming.They looked as though they had come for war."I won't let them take you," Wesley said firmly.His hand tightened around mine.For reasons I could not explain, the fear inside me began to ease.The headmaster entered the room once more, his expression grave."The Council refuses to leave."Liam folded his arms."They're really forcing this?""They claim the ancient laws grant them authority over anyone carrying the Moon Child's blood."My stomach twisted."I don't even know what a Moon Child is."The old professor sighed."That is because the truth has been buried for nearly twenty years."He slowly approached me."Long before Willowbrook Academy exi

    Emilia's POVThe academy had never been quieter.Even after the Shadow Beasts disappeared, fear lingered in every corner of Willowbrook. Broken windows, scorched stone walls, and pools of black blood stood as stark reminders that the academy was no longer the sanctuary everyone had once believed it to be.Wesley carried me through the deserted corridor, refusing to let me walk despite my protests."I can manage," I murmured."You collapsed less than five minutes ago.""I'm feeling better."He glanced down at me, one dark eyebrow raised."You've said that three times today."I sighed."And you've ignored me three times."A faint smile touched the corner of his lips."I intend to keep doing that."I rolled my eyes, though I couldn't suppress my own smile.His heartbeat was steady beneath my cheek, reassuring in a way I couldn't explain.For the first time since arriving at Willowbrook, I did not feel alone.The infirmary doors opened as the school nurse hurried toward us."Oh, Goddess..

    Emilia's POVEverything happened in an instant.The spear of black energy tore through the underground shelter, aimed directly at my heart.I could not move.Fear held me in place as the hooded figure’s cold laughter echoed through the chamber.“So this is the child of prophecy,” the stranger mocked. “How disappointing.”“EMILIA!”Wesley’s roar shook the shelter.Without hesitation, he lunged in front of me, his partially shifted body becoming my shield.BOOM!The spear struck his chest with devastating force.A violent explosion ripped through the chamber, sending students crashing against the stone walls. Dust and shattered rock rained from the ceiling as screams erupted in every direction.“Wesley!” I cried.His body skidded across the floor before slamming into one of the ancient pillars. Blood trickled from the corner of his lips as dark magic spread across his chest like poisonous vines.“No... no, please...”I ran to him and dropped to my knees beside him.His breathing was sha
