The Council of Wolves

Seraphina did not sleep.After Aiden's strange words, sleep became impossible.He isn't dead.The boy had spoken with such certainty.Such conviction.As though he hadn't guessed.As though he somehow knew.The moonlight streamed through the chamber windows, casting silver patterns across the floor.Beside her, Aiden slept peacefully once more.But Seraphina remained awake.Watching.Thinking.Remembering.Killian's face haunted her thoughts.The news of his death still felt unreal.Too sudden.Too final.Too wrong.A soft knock interrupted her thoughts.Three quiet taps.She immediately recognized them.Kael."Come in."The door opened.He stepped inside, already dressed for battle.His expression alone told her something had happened."What is it?""The Council has called an emergency assembly."Seraphina frowned."At this hour?"Kael nodded grimly."They're moving faster than expected."A chill ran through her.Cassius.The name immediately surfaced."What does he want?"Kael's jaw

The Silver Guardian

The council meeting ended in chaos.Nobles argued.Commanders demanded answers.The elders whispered prayers to the Moon Goddess.And throughout it all, one question lingered.Why had the wolves come?Seraphina left the chamber before anyone could stop her.Something deep inside her was pulling her toward the city gates.An instinct.A certainty.The wolves were not here for war.They were here for Aiden.Kael caught up with her halfway down the corridor."You're going to the gates."It wasn't a question.She nodded."You're thinking the same thing I am.""The boy."Seraphina's stomach tightened."The heir."Neither of them liked how true those words sounded.When they reached her chambers, they found Aiden already awake.The moment he saw them, he jumped from his chair."Mama!"He ran into her arms.Seraphina hugged him tightly.Perhaps too tightly.Because he immediately frowned."What happened?"She brushed his curls back."Nothing."Aiden gave her a look that reminded her painfull

The First Attempt

The city did not sleep that night.How could it?By sunset, rumors had spread through every street, tavern, marketplace, and noble estate.The Silver Guardian had returned.The ancient prophecy was awakening.A mysterious child had been recognized by the wolves.No one knew the full truth.But everyone knew something extraordinary had happened.And dangerous men always paid attention when extraordinary things happened.Especially Lord Cassius.---Seraphina stood beside the window of her chamber, watching the moonlight spill across the palace gardens.Below, guards patrolled the grounds.More guards than usual.The Queen Mother had quietly doubled security after the incident at the gates.Not that it made Seraphina feel better.Her instincts remained restless.Uneasy.As though danger lurked just beyond sight.Behind her, Aiden slept peacefully.Curled beneath a thick blanket.Unaware that half the kingdom was already whispering about him.Kael leaned against the wall near the door.S

A Father In The Shadow

The palace was silent.Not the peaceful silence of sleep.The dangerous silence that followed an attack.Guards patrolled every corridor.Servants whispered behind closed doors.And throughout the kingdom, rumors spread faster than wildfire.An assassin had entered the palace.The mysterious child had survived.Magic had awakened.The prophecy was real.Seraphina sat beside Aiden's bed long after midnight.The boy had finally fallen asleep.But even in sleep, he seemed restless.His small fingers twitched against the blanket.As though he were dreaming of something he couldn't understand.Seraphina brushed a curl from his forehead.Fear still gripped her heart.The image of that blade inches from her son's throat refused to leave her mind.If Aiden's power hadn't awakened...She couldn't finish the thought.A soft knock came at the door.Kael entered.His expression was grim."The assassin is dead."Seraphina looked up sharply."What?""The guards found him dead in his cell."A cold c

The Man Who Came Back

No one moved.No one breathed.The world seemed to freeze around Aiden's words."Daddy's here."Seraphina stared at the doorway.Her pulse hammered painfully in her ears.Impossible.It had to be impossible.Killian was dead.The kingdom had mourned him.The bells had rung.The black banners hung from every tower.And yet...That strange feeling she'd sensed earlier returned.Warm.Familiar.Terrifying.Kael stepped in front of her automatically.His hand went to the hilt of his sword."Aiden."His voice was calm.Careful."Who are you talking about?"The boy blinked.As though surprised by the question.Then he pointed.Directly in the shadows beyond the doorway."There."Silence.Kael's eyes narrowed."Show yourself."Nothing happened.Then a soft footstep echoed down the corridor.Seraphina's breath caught.Another step.Then another.Slow.Deliberate.A figure emerged from the darkness.Tall.Broad-shouldered.Familiar.Painfully familiar.The moment moonlight touched his face, Se

The Beast Beneath

The moment should have been perfect.A father meeting his son.A family finding its way back together.A wound that had remained open for five years finally began to heal.But fate was rarely kind.The palace trembled.A deep rumble rolled through the stone floor.The walls shook violently.Chandeliers swayed overhead.Glass shattered somewhere in the distance.Everyone in the room froze.Aiden's smile vanished."What was that?"Another tremor struck.Stronger this time.Books tumbled from shelves.A vase crashed to the floor.The Queen Mother grabbed the bedpost to steady herself.Kael immediately moved toward the window.His face darkened."That's not an earthquake."Killian was already on his feet.Every instinct he possessed screamed the same warning.Danger.Ancient.Powerful.Wrong.He felt it in the bond connecting him to the throne.The kingdom's magic was reacting.Fighting.Defending itself.Something had awakened.Something it feared.Far beneath the palace.Far beneath the

The Hunter and the Heir

The moment Killian, Seraphina, and Kael disappeared down the corridor, an uneasy silence settled over the royal chamber. Aiden sat on the edge of the bed, swinging his legs. The Queen Mother remained beside him, though her attention kept drifting toward the door—toward the danger spreading through the palace, and toward her son, alive after believing him dead. The thought still felt unreal.A crash echoed from somewhere below, and the palace trembled again. Aiden frowned. "The bad wolf is awake."The Queen Mother looked at him sharply. "What did you say?"The boy blinked. "The bad wolf.""You can feel it?"Aiden nodded slowly. The old queen's heart sank. Every hour, the prophecy seemed to grow stronger. Every hour, Aiden became more connected to powers no child should have to carry.Before she could ask another question, a servant rushed into the room, breathless and terrified. "My Queen!" The woman nearly tripped over her own feet. "The eastern courtyard has fallen."The Queen Mother

The Thing Wearing a Face

The room went silent. Aiden's words seemed to echo long after he spoke them."He's already inside."The Silver Guardian snarled from the balcony, its massive body tensing as golden eyes locked on something unseen—or perhaps someone unseen.The Queen Mother felt a chill crawl down her spine. "Aiden..." Her voice trembled. "What do you mean?"The boy didn't answer immediately. His glowing silver eyes scanned the room slowly, carefully, as though searching—as though listening to something nobody else could hear. Then his gaze stopped, landing directly on one of the guards.The man's face immediately drained of color."That one," Aiden pointed, his small hand shaking. "That's not him."The chamber erupted. Weapons were drawn and questions exploded. The accused soldier stumbled backward, confused and terrified. "What?" The guard raised both hands. "My Queen, I swear—"His voice suddenly changed, becoming deeper, older, and fundamentally wrong. The man's body twisted violently. Bones cracke

What the Beast Wants

Killian did not lower his sword immediately, even after the shadows disappeared, even after the candles reignited, and even after the unnatural cold slowly faded from the room. He remained standing in front of Aiden—protecting him, shielding him, like a father should. Like a father should have done five years ago.Aiden peeked around him. "Dad?"Killian glanced over his shoulder. The boy's silver eyes had returned to normal, but confusion lingered there. Fear too. A child should never have to hear an ancient monster speak his name. A child should never become the center of a prophecy. A child should never become prey.Yet somehow, his son had become all three.Killian sheathed his sword, then slowly knelt before Aiden. "Are you hurt?"The boy shook his head. "No." A pause. "But my chest feels funny."Seraphina was beside them instantly. "Funny how?"Aiden placed a hand over his heart. "It feels warm."She frowned. "Painful?""No." Another pause. "It feels like someone is knocking."The

The Fall of Blackthorn City

The first horn sounded at dawn. The second came moments later. By the third horn, everyone in Blackthorn City understood: the capital was under siege.Smoke rose from the eastern districts. Shadow creatures poured through shattered gates and broken walls, moving like living nightmares. Their eyes burned crimson, their claws tore through stone, and every wound they inflicted spread darkness through flesh.Soldiers fought desperately. Wolves shifted and joined the battle, while healers rushed between the injured. Families fled, children cried, and above it all, the Silver Guardian howled—a sound ancient enough to shake the sky itself.### The War RoomInside the palace war room, chaos reigned. Commanders shouted reports, messengers arrived every few minutes, and maps littered the large oak table, their surfaces covered nearly halfway in dark red markers indicating fallen sectors.Killian stood at the center, clad once more in the black armor of the Alpha King, its golden markings glowin
