In the depths of the endless battle, they once more stood facing each other, their eyes locked in a deadly stare, vying for control. Aggressive posturing and growling fill the air.With a fierce snarl, Scott lunged forward, his massive jaws snapping at Alpha Tyler's throat. But Tyler was quick, dodging to the side and retaliating with a swift bite to Scott's hindquarters. The two wolves circled each other, their bodies tense and ready for the next attack.The battle raged on for hours, even with the Pure Crescent pack gaining a clear advantage. Alpha Tyler's wolves fought bravely, their loyalty to their leader driving them to give their all in the high even though they were being massacred. Not that the Pure Crescent pack was better in any way. However, the help they got from Herrick's wolves strengthened them, bigger, and more ruthless. They fought with a ferocity that Tyler's pack had never seen before.As the sun began to set, Scott launched a surprise attack from behind. Tyler's w

Minutes turned into hours, then days and Tyler and Katida were kept in the small room, their only contact with the outside world being the occasional visit from Scott or one of his pack mates. Tyler was subjected to various forms of torture, but he refused to break. He was determined to stay strong, to revenge his pack, no matter what.He started to have blurry visions. Something made absolutely no sense to him. Everything that was done to him was humiliating and degrading, yet, he didn't care. Annik never set his eyes on him, while Scott prolonged his execution for whatever reason best known to him.Katida's confession had only passed him off so much that he vowed to banish her for conflicting such pain on their pack. Even though they were together, he ignored her as if she wasn't present. Tyler trained rigorously within the confinement, even with the little meal they were being fed once a day.Katida, on the other hand, had started to crack under the pressure. She was torn between no

Levi's eyes widened in surprise, and he turned to Lana. “Are you convinced? Which way?”Luna closed her eyes, focusing on the mind link. She could feel Tyler's presence, a faint whisper in the back of her mind.“That way,” she said, pointing in the direction of the mind link. “We need to hurry.”Levi nodded, and they quickened their pace, weaving through the trees. Lana's heart raced with anticipation, and something within her howled with joy. She was getting closer to her mate, and nothing else mattered.But then, as they approached the heart of the forest, the mind link flickered again, and Lana's heart sank. Tyler was still too far away, and the dark magic was too strong.Lana stumbled, her legs giving out under her. She sank to the ground, tears streaming down her face. She couldn't take it anymore. She was exhausted, heartbroken, and lost.Levi knelt beside her, his hand on her shoulder. “Lana, don't give up. We will find a way to get out of here. If you can feel Tyler which was

Tyler had trails of dried-up blood all over his body. His entire body was covered with cuts laced with silver and wolfsbane. He was in deep agony that he groaned so badly, twisting and turning at the discomfort. One thing gave him hope, even though he had completely lost his power out of the blue. The fact that he had briefly heard Lana and knew that she was sick and worried about him.He didn't need saving. Mostly, he hoped Lana was safe and would move on with her life if need be. She has been through a lot, which he put her through. Always used her as a shield for his pack and in the end, it still crumbled to the ground. Everything.Tyler was weak, profuse sweat dribbling down his face. He was hung upside down at the entrance of the Pure Crescent pack. Every four hours, he was moved to a different location, but still hung in the same position.Scarlet was displeased with this barbaric act from Annik and went ahead to confront him, but he brushed her off. She couldn't do more than wat

“Years ago, the Pure Crescent pack was gifted the Sapphire orb by the Moon Goddess. To guide these orbs, four Lanterns were positioned around them. How they are chosen is still a mystery to all. However, these four lanterns must work together to maintain peace. That's what makes the Pure Crescent pack the most powerful pack,” Mrs. Lowell began with her narration. “Through the years, everything was well until, one by one, the Lanterns began to get assassinated. Shortly, a mysterious fire broke out in the Pure Crescent pack, killing everyone except Annik. Naturally, he took over.”Lana, even though she has heard the story multiple times, always gets shocked whenever it is brought up. “How was this swept under the rug? It only goes around as rumors. Nobody openly tells these stories.”“Because Annik kills anyone who speaks of it. Most justify his action, saying that the story triggers him. We agree that it's a sad story that he doesn't want to often hear, but there's nothing that would m
