Luna Aurora novel (Alpha Fenrir) novel Chapter 257

The forest had grown darker, the air heavier with the stench of decay. Each step Elyra and Dain took was filled with unease, as if the trees themselves were watching.

The attacks began subtly—a shadow flitting through the trees, a low growl in the distance. But as the days passed, the creatures became bolder, their grotesque forms emerging from rifts in the forest like nightmares made flesh.

One evening, as they rested near a stream, the first of the creatures lunged at them. It was a mass of shadow and teeth, its eyes blazing with malevolence. Elyra and Dain fought side by side, their movements instinctive and coordinated.

Elyra’s newfound agility allowed her to dodge the creature’s strikes with ease, while Dain’s raw strength shattered its twisted form. The battle left them breathless but alive.
