Chapter 185 – The First Test of Unity
The night had barely settled after the Rite when the storm broke.The howls of victory had not yet faded from the valley when a scout stumbled into camp, his fur matted with blood, his eyes wide with terror. He collapsed at the edge of the council fire, gasping out broken words. “They… they’re coming… the void beasts… an army larger than any before less than a league away”The celebration turned to silence, then to chaos. Wolves scrambled to their feet, hands reaching for weapons, warriors rushing to assemble. The Alphas, still raw from the bond, felt the panic ripple through their linked souls. For the first time, they shared not just command but fear. And Kael felt it all like fire in his veinsHe stepped forward, his voice slicing through the noise. “To the field. Now!”No one hesitated. The bond held them fast. Orders carried faster than speech each Alpha felt his intent, and their packs moved as one. It was a strange, unnerving thing, but powerful. Where before each pack moved to
Chapter 184 – The Alpha’s Gamble
The dawn broke red across the horizon, streaking the clouds with fire. To the wolves, it felt less like morning and more like an omen. The camp stirred in uneasy silence, warriors tending to weapons with distracted hands, healers binding wounds in grim quiet, scouts moving with restless energy. The air itself seemed heavy, as though the world was holding its breathKael rose before the sun, his eyes shadowed but determined. He had not slept, for the weight of the council’s fracture pressed too heavily upon him. Their uneasy accord was a chain too brittle to hold. If he did not act, it would snap in the battles to come. He needed something stronger, something that would bind them beyond fear and necessity. He needed a bond that could not be brokenLiora found him at the edge of camp, staring out over the valley where the mist curled low against the ground. She studied him for a moment before speaking. “You’ve already decided, haven’t you?”Kael’s gaze did not shift. “They doubt me. The
Chapter 183 – Fractured Oaths
The camp bore scars that no dawn could soften. Smoke curled faintly from blackened earth where fires had raged, and the stench of blood clung stubbornly to the air. Wolves moved quietly, their usual camaraderie replaced by wary silence. They worked to clear the battlefield, piling the dead, patching wounds, tending to shattered tents, but their eyes betrayed the deeper wounds that no healer could mend. Trust had bled out into the soilKael stood apart from them, watching the work with arms crossed, his jaw clenched. His body ached from the battle, every muscle heavy, yet his spirit weighed more. He had faced the Western Alpha and ended him, but in that victory, something fragile had been broken. He saw it in the way wolves avoided his gaze, in the whispers that died when he passed, in the shadows of fear that clung to their shoulders. He had silenced rebellion, but he could not silence doubtLiora approached quietly, her face lined with exhaustion. She touched his arm, grounding him.
Chapter 182 – The First Betrayal
The morning after the battle at the southern ridges dawned gray and heavy. The air carried the stench of burned ichor and blood, clinging to the camp like an unwelcome shroud. Wolves whispered as they moved about their tasks, glancing often toward the Alpha of Alphas. They had seen his power unleashed against the voidspawn, and though some still harbored unease, none could deny he had saved them from certain slaughterKael rose before most, his body weary but unbowed. Sleep had become a stranger; every time he closed his eyes, he felt the chains of the void coiling in his chest, whispering faintly in the silence. It did not speak in words but in presence, a constant reminder that though he wielded it, it still lurked, patient and hungry. He could not rest, for rest was surrender, and surrender would mean doomBy midday the council gathered again. The Alphas filled the hall, their voices subdued, but beneath the surface Kael felt the strain of barely veiled resentment. The Alpha of the
Chapter 181 – The Fractured Oath
The night after the council stretched longer than most, silence settling over the valley like an omen. Fires burned low, warriors slumbered uneasily, but Kael did not rest. He stood at the edge of camp with Liora close beside him, watching the horizon where darkness still pulsed faintly beyond the ridges. The void had retreated, but not fallen. He could feel it, patient, waiting. His bond to it made him its unwilling sentinel. Even as Alpha of Alphas, he would never be freeWhen dawn came, the fragile alliance faced its first test. Scouts returned breathless, bearing news of a raiding party that had slipped past the southern watch. The voidspawn had scattered after their master fell, but fragments of them lingered hungry, directionless, yet dangerous. Several packs lost hunting parties in the night, their blood staining the snow where the creatures struck. The wounds of battle had not even healed, and already new threats clawed at their unityKael summoned the Alphas at sunrise, their
Chapter 180 – Shadows in the Council
The dawn after victory had barely settled when the weight of leadership came crashing upon Kael’s shoulders. The battlefield was quiet now, cleansed of immediate danger, but the air was thick with questions, demands, and the shifting eyes of wolves who had once sworn fealty to no one. Victory had united them for a single battle but unity forged in blood was fragile. It needed fire, iron, and will to holdThe valley had been turned into a makeshift camp. Fires burned in rows, healers moved tirelessly, and warriors patrolled the perimeter with nerves strung taut. Kael moved through it like a shadow, his presence enough to silence bickering, but whispers always rose after he passed. Some voices praised him as savior. Others murmured fear fear of the void that still lingered in his veins, fear that his power was too much for any one Alpha to wieldLiora stayed at his side, her gaze steady, but Kael could feel the tremor beneath her calm. She sensed it too. Wolves who had never bent knee b
