Selena walks a treacherous path of deception and vengeance, long-buried secrets surface, and the stakes grow higher. What will happen when Selena and Darius confront the truths that tie their fates together? Can redemption be found amid betrayal, or will revenge plunge them both into darkness?
The scent of blood still lingered in Selena Kaelvar's memory, haunting her every breath. Even the wind that danced through the dense forest around her seemed to carry whispers of that fateful night-the night her family was slaughtered. She crouched low in the underbrush, her amber eyes fixed on the Crescent Moon Pack's territory beyond the ridge. The sharp chill of the evening gnawed at her skin, but the fire in her heart burned hotter. Revenge was all that kept her moving.
The sound of laughter drifted toward her. Two Crescent Moon warriors patrolled the border, their casual chatter slicing through the quiet like a blade. Selena's nails dug into the dirt beneath her. They looked so at ease, so unbothered by the blood they'd spilled years ago. Her muscles tensed, ready to pounce, but she held herself back. This wasn't the time. She needed patience, precision. This plan was too important to rush.
Instead, she watched. The warriors moved farther down the trail, their voices fading into the distance. Selena rose from her hiding spot, brushing leaves from her worn cloak. Her heart pounded. She couldn't afford a single mistake. A moment of recklessness could cost her everything.
Her fingers tightened around the edge of her hood, pulling it closer to shield her face. She moved silently, her steps barely stirring the fallen leaves beneath her boots. The Crescent Moon Pack's village lay just beyond the next hill, its warm lights flickering against the darkening sky. Selena had scouted this area for weeks, memorizing every detail. Tonight, she would put her plan into motion.
The resemblance was uncanny. Selena had stumbled upon it by chance during one of her reconnaissance missions-a fleeting glimpse of Liana Morven, the Crescent Moon Luna. It had been like looking into a mirror. The same high cheekbones, the same cascade of dark hair, the same piercing gaze. Selena's heart had raced with the possibilities. Fate had handed her a weapon, and she intended to wield it.
Slipping past the outer guards was easier than she expected. The Crescent Moon warriors were vigilant, but they didn't anticipate an intruder moving with such precision. Selena's feet carried her through the shadows, her pulse steady despite the danger. She reached the edge of the village and ducked behind a stack of barrels near the stables.
The plan was simple in theory but fraught with risk. Selena had to get close to Liana, incapacitate her, and take her place. From there, she could infiltrate the Crescent Moon Pack, gather information, and dismantle them from within. It was the perfect revenge-slow, methodical, and devastating.
A soft voice reached her ears, drawing her attention to a nearby building. Through a half-open window, she spotted Liana sitting at a wooden table, her delicate fingers tracing the rim of a glass. The Luna's expression was pensive, her brow furrowed in thought. Selena felt a pang of guilt, sharp and unwelcome. She pushed it aside. There was no room for weakness.
Scaling the side of the building, Selena found herself at the window's edge. The cool night air brushed against her skin as she crouched there, watching her target. Liana didn't notice her presence, lost in whatever thoughts clouded her mind. It was almost too easy.
Selena slipped through the window in a fluid motion, her movements silent. Liana turned, her eyes widening in surprise, but before she could cry out, Selena struck. A swift blow to the side of her neck sent the Luna crumpling to the floor, unconscious.
It wasn't until Selena stood over her fallen target that the gravity of her actions hit her. This woman wasn't a faceless enemy; she had a name, a life, a mate who probably adored her. But then Selena thought of her family-their laughter, their warmth, their blood staining the earth-and her resolve hardened.
The next step was crucial. Selena worked quickly, binding Liana's wrists and gagging her. She carried the unconscious Luna out through the window, her movements as careful as they were practiced. The forest outside welcomed her like an old friend, its shadows wrapping around her like a cloak. She had prepared a hidden location deep within the woods where Liana would remain until Selena's mission was complete.
Hours passed before Selena returned to the Crescent Moon village, her new identity firmly in place. She had cleaned herself up, donned Liana's clothes, and practiced her mannerisms. It felt strange, wearing another person's life like a mask, but it was necessary.
Stepping into the village under the guise of the Luna was nerve-wracking. Every pair of eyes that landed on her felt like a threat, every whispered conversation a potential discovery. Selena kept her chin high, her expression serene. The Crescent Moon Pack couldn't know their precious Luna was gone. Not yet.
The heart of the village bustled with activity. Warriors sparred in the training yard, children darted between houses, and the scent of roasting meat filled the air. Selena walked among them, her every step calculated. The pack members greeted her warmly, oblivious to the truth.
"Luna Liana," a voice called, pulling her from her thoughts.
Selena turned to see a tall man striding toward her. His presence was commanding, his broad shoulders and sharp features unmistakable. Darius Raelith, the Crescent Moon Alpha. Her heart skipped a beat, but she forced a gentle smile.
"Darius," she replied, her voice steady despite the storm of nerves within her.
He stopped in front of her, his piercing blue eyes searching her face. There was something about his gaze that made her feel exposed, as though he could see through the facade. But he said nothing, only reaching out to take her hand.
"You seemed distracted earlier," he said, his tone soft but firm. "Is something troubling you?"
Selena's mind raced for an answer. She couldn't afford to slip now, not when she was so close to gaining his trust.
"Just tired," she lied, offering a small smile. "There's been much on my mind lately."
Darius studied her for a moment longer before nodding. "If you need anything, you only have to ask. You know that."
The warmth in his voice took her by surprise. This wasn't the ruthless killer she had imagined, the man she had blamed for her family's deaths. He seemed... kind. It was disarming, and it made her task all the more complicated.
Selena nodded, pulling her hand away. "Thank you, Darius. I'll be fine."
As he walked away, she felt a pang of doubt. Her plan was in motion, but for the first time, she questioned whether revenge was worth the cost.
The village settled into quiet as night fell, but Selena's thoughts were anything but calm. She sat alone in Liana's quarters, staring out the window at the darkened forest. Her grip tightened on the windowsill. There was no turning back now. The Crescent Moon Pack would pay for their sins, no matter the price.
Above her, the moon shone brightly, its silver light a reminder of the path she had chosen. The wolves below rested, unaware of the storm that had infiltrated their midst. Selena closed her eyes and took a deep breath. Tomorrow would bring new challenges, new lies to tell, and new truths to uncover.
But tonight, she allowed herself a moment of silence. A moment to remember her family's faces, their laughter, and the promise she had made to them. Revenge was all she had left, and she wouldn't stop until it was done.
