CHAPTER 80 – THE HUNTER AND THE MOON
THE HUNTER AND THE MOONThe Hollow Crown seemed to pulse with its own heartbeat now, a deep, resonant thrum that vibrated through Aria’s bones and the paws of the wolves around her. The energy that had been stirred in the previous battle had not settled it had awakened, feeding on their presence, on the bond that connected Moonborn, fire, and wolf. Every rock, every fissure, every spire was alive with anticipation, waiting for the next move.Rowan’s eyes scanned the horizon. The wind carried a metallic scent blood, iron, and the unmistakable trace of Malachar’s presence. The enemy had not fled. He had not retreated for mercy or weakness; he had withdrawn to strategize, to strike when the Moonborn least expected it.“They’re preparing,” Rowan murmured, gold light flickering beneath his skin. “Malachar always strikes from where you don’t expect him.”Aria’s silver veins pulsed in reply. She could feel it too not just him, but the remnants of the packs he had corrupted, the wolves twi
CHAPTER 79 – THE SILVER STORM
THE SILVER STORMThe wind cut like knives across the Hollow Crown, carrying ash and frost and a scent Aria could feel deep in her bones malice, power, and fear woven together in a dark thread. The plateau trembled beneath her feet as the ancient figure stepped forward again, shadows stretching unnaturally, writhing like living serpents. Every movement it made was deliberate, testing, probing the strength of the bond between Aria, Rowan, and the awakened wolves.Aria’s silver light pulsed, coiling around her arms, responding to instinct, to the land, and to the heartbeat of the wolves surrounding her. Each pulse resonated through the Hollow Crown, rattling stones, and causing fissures in the cliffs to glow faintly with ancestral energy. The wolves stiffened, ears pricked, muscles coiled, ready to leap at a thought.Rowan’s fire flared beside her, gold and warm against the silver storm. He scanned the shadows, hands moving instinctively, a dance honed from countless battles. “They’ve b
CHAPTER 78 – THE RISING TIDE
THE RISING TIDEThe Hollow Crown had not finished speaking.Even after Malachar’s retreat, the plateau throbbed with life, as if the land itself had taken a deep breath and refused to exhale. Aria stood at the center, silver light still coiling faintly along her arms, heartbeat echoing through the stone beneath her feet. The wolves circled her, eyes alert, muscles taut, every movement a testament to the bond they shared. This was no longer a gathering of followers it was a pack born of blood, fire, and purpose.Rowan knelt briefly, scanning the perimeter, fire coiling in his veins, ready to ignite at the slightest threat. “He’s not gone,” he said softly, voice tight with focus. “Malachar never truly leaves. He waits. Watches. Learns.”Aria nodded, sensing the truth in his words. Malachar’s retreat was temporary. A shadow warrior like him did not flee without strategy, without preparation. And the Hollow Crown had revealed that the next strike would come not just with force, but with
CHAPTER 77 – THE ECLIPSE OF BLOOD
The Hollow Crown breathed.Aria could feel it, faint vibrations running through the jagged stone beneath her feet, through the silver veins beneath her skin, through the pulse of every wolf that had answered her call. It was alive in ways that defied understanding—not thought, not feeling, but intent. It knew they had come. It knew their power. And it was preparing.The sky above darkened unnaturally, clouds twisting in patterns that mimicked the jagged spires below. A low wind carried a metallic tang, the scent of blood that had long since dried but lingered in the memory of the land. Aria inhaled deeply, letting the currents of power inside her settle. The Moonborn energy pulsed in harmony with the plateau, resonating outward, as if calling the Hollow Crown to attention.Rowan stayed close, fire coiling around his fists, smoldering in readiness. He scanned the edges of the cliffs, muscles tensed like a predator, instincts screaming that danger was closer than ever. “They’re here,” h
CHAPTER 76 – SHADOWS OVER THE HOLLOW CROWN
The journey to the Hollow Crown was nothing like Aria expected. It was not a path, not a trail, not even a valley. It was a land suspended between memory and reality, scarred by centuries of conflict, where stone and shadow had merged into something alive. Every step felt heavier than the last, every breath tasted of iron and ash.The wolves flanked them, some in full form, others shifting between human and wolf, all alert and tense. The air carried the scent of old battles—blood, smoke, and something older, something that whispered promises of power and revenge. Aria could feel it crawling under her skin, pressing at her silver veins, daring her to falter.Rowan stayed close, his fire contained but ready. He moved with a predator’s instinct, reading the land, reading the wolves, reading her. They were both aware: the Hollow Crown did not wait for the weak. It did not forgive hesitation.Ahead, the land began to rise. Jagged cliffs spiraled like teeth into the storm-darkened sky, and
CHAPTER 75 – THE SCENT OF WAR
THE SCENT OF WARThe light faded slowly, not vanishing but sinking into the land as if the world itself were absorbing what had been awakened. When Aria lowered her arms, her body trembled, not from weakness but from restraint. The power inside her no longer surged wildly. It waited. Listening. Learning her limits.The wolves rose one by one.They were not the same.Some touched their chests in disbelief, feeling marks that had not existed moments before. Others stared at their hands, at the veins glowing faintly beneath skin, silver threaded with blood memory. A few backed away, fear tightening their movements, unable to reconcile what they had become with who they used to be.Rowan watched them carefully. He could smell it now. Change. Not just magic, but allegiance shifting, instincts sharpening. The scent of war rode the air, metallic and ancient, the kind that never faded once it appeared.“They won’t all follow,” he said quietly to Aria.She nodded. “They don’t have to.”One of
