Chapter 79

Chapter Seventy Nine

I woke up to the soft glow of morning light filtering through my curtains, the warmth of the previous night lingering on my skin. My body ached-not from battle, but from the intensity of what had transpired between me and the twins. A deep, prímal satisfaction settled within me, an unbreakable bond now tying us together.

But there was no time to dwell on that. Training awaited.

After getting dressed, I met up with my mates in the training grounds where Eira stood, arms crossed, waiting for us. Her expression was unreadable, but there was something in her eyes that made my stomach twist with unease.

"You've all come a long way," she began, pacing before us. "But what you've faced so far? It's barely the beginning."

Her gaze swept over us, lingering on me. "Today, we take things further. You're going to learn how to combine your powers."

I frowned. "You mean, like fighting together?"

Eira shook her head. “No, Stormi. I mean fusing your abilities into a single force- one powerful enough to turn the tide of battle." She motioned to the training ground, where a large, silver rune glowed in the center. "This is the Lunar Convergence Sigil. It will help you channel what call 'Lunar Synergy.""

Elijah, standing beside me, let out a low grunt. "Sounds complicated.

Eira smirked. "It is. That's why you're starting now."

She extended her hand, and suddenly, the sigil beneath our feet pulsed with light. A surge of energy rushed through me, tingling against my skin, as though the very air vibrated with magic.

Austin whistled, looking down. "Alright, I'll admit-that's impressive.

Eira ignored him. "Stormi, you are the key. As the Lunar Catalyst, your power will link with theirs. You'll need to amplify their

abilities, but there's a cost."

A chill ran through me. "A cost?"

Eira's expression turned serious. "If you push too hard, you could drain yourself completely. It's a dangerous technique. One that can save lives-but also one that can kill you if you're reckless."

A heavy silence fell over the group.

I exhaled slowly. "So... how do we do this?"
