All Chapters of True Luna's Revenge: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

The staircase continued rising until the grinding sound finally stopped. Dust drifted lazily through the air while loose pieces of earth rolled down the stone steps and disappeared into the darkness below. Silence settled around the clearing once more, except this silence felt heavier than before. It pressed against my skin, carrying a strange weight that made the hair at the back of my neck stand up.No one spoke immediately.Lucas moved closer until his shoulder brushed mine while his hand remained wrapped around mine, warm and steady despite the tension pulling across his face. Around us, the others stared at the opening beneath the ruins as though expecting something to climb out of it.Rachel swallowed hard."Please tell me nobody is thinking what I think they're thinking."Ethan folded his arms and stared down the staircase."If what you're thinking is that we should absolutely avoid the dark hole leading into a place that appeared out of nowhere." He looked toward me and Lucas.

Silence spread through the room so completely that even the rain against the windows seemed distant.No one moved.No one spoke.The words I had just uttered hung heavily in the air, refusing to disappear."He isn't dead."Lucas's arm remained firmly around my shoulders, steadying me while my breathing struggled to return to normal. Across from us, Emily stared in confusion while Ethan's expression hardened almost immediately.Rachel was the first to break the silence."What do you mean he isn't dead?"Her voice came carefully, as though she feared the answer.I swallowed hard.The vision still clung to me.The green eyes.The face.The voice.Every detail felt painfully real."It was him," I whispered. "I know it was."Lucas frowned."Scarlett."I looked at him."It was my brother."The room became quiet again.Years ago, my brother's death had shattered what remained of my family. His disappearance had been one of the reasons everything unraveled afterward. No body had ever been fou

The pack house had transformed in a matter of minutes.What had once been a quiet evening filled with conversation and the comfort of familiar faces was now alive with movement. Wolves hurried through the halls carrying weapons, scouts rushed in and out of the main entrance, and tension spread through every corner of the building. The peaceful rhythm we had spent weeks building felt suddenly fragile, as though one wrong move could shatter it completely.I stood beside Lucas near the entrance hall while Ethan spoke with several patrol leaders. Rain hammered against the roof overhead, and every gust of wind seemed determined to force its way through the walls. Somewhere behind us, Adrian remained surrounded by healers, but his eyes never left the doorway.The fear in his expression unsettled me more than I wanted to admit.Whoever this woman was, she clearly meant something.And not something good."Where exactly did they find her?" Lucas asked.Ethan folded a map closed before answerin

The words seemed to burn themselves into my mind.The heir must never find her brother.For several seconds, I could do nothing except stare at the parchment. The letters blurred before my eyes as dozens of thoughts collided inside my head. The night air suddenly felt colder, and the weight of the paper in my hands seemed impossible for something so small.Lucas stepped closer immediately."Scarlett?"I barely heard him.Brother.The word echoed through me.My brother had died.That was what I had been told my entire life.That was the story everyone knew.The story my mother cried over.The story that had shaped so much of our family's pain.Yet now I stood holding a warning that suggested something entirely different.Emily looked worried."I knew it was important the moment I saw your name."Slowly, I lifted my eyes from the parchment."Where exactly did you find this?""In the oldest section of the archives," she answered. "Most of the records were damaged. This one was hidden ins

The days that followed should have felt easier.After everything the pack had survived, after the alliances that had been forged and the wounds that had finally begun to heal, peace should have settled naturally into their lives. Yet the feeling that had taken root inside me after hearing that voice near the river refused to disappear.It lingered.Every morning when I opened my eyes, it was there.Every night when sleep finally claimed me, it waited beneath my dreams.The voice.The familiarity.The certainty that I knew it.And the fear that came with realizing I could not remember why.The training grounds were crowded that afternoon. Wolves moved through drills while younger pack members practiced defensive formations under the watchful eyes of experienced warriors. The steady rhythm of movement filled the clearing, creating an illusion of normalcy that everyone seemed desperate to hold onto.I stood beside Lucas near the edge of the field, watching two younger wolves spar."They'
