Luna Aurora novel (Alpha Fenrir) novel Chapter 29

Cassian returned to the hall, his mind heavy with the weight of recent events. The pack was growing restless, and the tension at the borders wasn’t helping. Fenrir’s wolves were a looming threat, but Arianna’s presence added a layer of complexity he hadn’t anticipated.

“Alpha,” Nathan said as Cassian entered the holding room.

Cassian waved him aside, stepping closer to where Arianna sat.

“You’ve been working with Fenrir,” he said, his voice calm but cold. “What’s your plan, Arianna? To deliver Aurora to him and secure your position as Luna?”

Arianna chuckled, the sound low and dangerous. “You think I need Fenrir to solidify my place? He’s nothing without me. And Aurora? She’s a fool to think she can hide from him—or from me.”

Cassian’s gaze darkened. “You underestimate her.”

“And you overestimate her,” Arianna countered. “She’s weak, Cassian. She’ll break the moment Fenrir lays eyes on her.”

Cassian took a step closer, his presence towering over her. “You don’t know her like I do. Aurora is stronger than you’ll ever be.”

For the first time, Arianna’s smirk faltered. But it returned quickly, sharper than before. “Strong enough to survive you failing her? Because that’s what’s going to happen, Cassian. You can’t protect her—not from Fenrir, and certainly not from me.”
