Luna Aurora (Alpha Fenrir)

Chapter 364

The Silver Vale was shrouded in tension, the air thick with the anticipation of battle. Elyra stood at the edge of the camp, her gaze fixed on the horizon where the dark shapes of Dain's forces could be seen, encircling the territory like a tightening noose. The once peaceful Vale, a sanctuary for her people, now faced its darkest hour. Dain's siege had lasted for days, cutting off supply lines and forcing her pack into a vulnerable position. If she didn't act now, they would be crushed under the weight of his ambition.

Elyra's heart pounded in her chest, her thoughts consumed by the one question she couldn't shake: How far was she willing to go to save her people without losing herself?

"Elyra." A voice broke her from her thoughts. Selene, the Luna who had become both a mentor and an ally, stepped forward, her eyes filled with determination. The ancient Luna's presence was calming, but there was no mistaking the power that radiated from her. Light magic, ancient and pure, flowed around Selene like a second skin, a testament to her mastery.

"We can't wait any longer," Selene said, her voice low but resolute. "If you don't strike first, you'll lose everything you're trying to protect."

Elyra nodded, her mind already racing with the battle plans. The siege was a trap, but she knew that hesitation could cost them dearly. Dain's army, bolstered by shadow beasts and shadow wolves, was overwhelming, but Elyra's pack was still strong if they could just break through the lines and strike at the heart of Dain's forces, they might still have a chance.

"We'll attack at dawn," Elyra said, her voice hard with determination. "Get the warriors ready. Selene, can you lead the charge with me?"

Selene's lips curled into a faint, knowing smile. "Always."

two women stood side by side, watching as the first rays of dawn pierced the thick fog of the forest, casting long shadows across the battlefield. The Silver Vale's defenses had been breached in several places, and Dain's forces were growing bolder, ready for the final strike. Elyra had no choice but to take the fight to him,
