Luna Aurora novel (Alpha Fenrir) novel Chapter 120

The Lycan King towered over Aurora, his piercing green eyes glowing with malevolent triumph. She struggled to stand, her legs trembling beneath her as Cassian stepped forward, his blade gleaming in the dim light.

“Stay back,” Cassian growled, placing himself between Aurora and the advancing threat. His voice was firm, but the tension in his shoulders betrayed the strain of fighting such an overwhelming opponent.

The Lycan King’s smirk deepened. “Do you really believe you can protect her? You’re nothing more than a fool standing in my way.”

Cassian didn’t reply. Instead, he lunged, his movements precise as his blade slashed toward the King’s chest. The Lycan King countered effortlessly, his clawed hand deflecting the strike with a burst of shadow that sent Cassian skidding back.

Aurora’s breath hitched as she watched the battle unfold. Her hands tightened around the fractured Lunar Key, its unstable energy pulsing erratically in her grasp. She felt the Pact’s power within her child, a fragile yet potent force that tied their fates together.

“You can’t run from destiny,” the Lycan King said, his gaze shifting to Aurora. “The Pact is mine, and so is your child. Surrender now, and I may spare what’s left of your pathetic pack.”

Aurora’s chest tightened, fear clawing at her resolve. But then she saw Cassian, bloodied and battered, forcing himself to his feet once more. His golden eyes locked on hers, and she felt his unwavering determination.

“No,” Aurora whispered, her grip on the Key tightening. “You won’t take this from me.”

The Lycan King straightened, his laughter cold and mocking. “You’ve only delayed the inevitable,” he said, his voice carrying an air of finality. “This world, your Pact, your family—they’re already mine.”

Cassian positioned himself between the Lycan King and Aurora, his blade still raised despite his injuries. “Over my dead body,” he growled.

The Lycan King smiled cruelly. “If that’s what it takes.”

Aurora’s mind raced as she weighed the impossible choices before her. The Lycan King advanced, his presence suffocating, while the fractured Lunar Key threatened to shatter entirely.
