I stood up. “They tried to kill him. Their own leader. And we’ve been sitting in meetings with them like nothing happened.”
“I know,” he said. “But if we move too fast, we lose control. You know how they work.”
“I don’t care how they work,” I said. “They almost killed him. And now they’ll answer for it.”
Brian didn’t argue, but I saw the

“Tell him.” I said. “He deserves to
When I found Daniel later that evening, he was outside near the training grounds, speaking with two of the sentries. I waited until he was alone before I handed him the paper.
“What’s this?” he asked, unfolding it.
“Read it.”
He did, his eyes moving slowly over the page. When he finished, he didn’t speak. His hand tightened slightly, and the paper crumpled between his fingers.
“An elder,” he said finally. “Of course.”
“He was afraid of you,” I said. “Afraid of what you’d become.”
Daniel gave a short, humorless sound. “And I thought they’d forgiven me for pushing back against them.”
“They never forgive,” I said quietly.
He looked at me, something hard behind his eyes. “Thank you for finding this.”
“I’m sorry,” I said. “You deserved to know sooner.”
He shook his head. “You’ve done more than anyone else would have. Leave the rest to me.”
I was laying down in my room and at around midnight, I felt a sudden pull, it was sharp and weird. It wasn’t physical.
I followed the pull and got to the grand hall where I saw Clara. She stood at the center of the room, a circle of runes glowing faintly around her. In her hands, she held a bowl of blood. My blood.
“You shouldn’t be here,” she said when she saw me.
“That’s my blood,” I said. “How did you get it?”
She smiled slightly. “It’s not that hard to get your blood.. A little drop is all it takes.”
“What are you doing, Clara?”
She lifted the bowl higher. “You don’t understand what’s at stake. The Luna bond isn’t just a tradition, it’s power. Daniel was never meant to have that strength. I’m fixing what should never have been broken.”
“You’re replacing me,” I said.

“I’m restoring balance,” she replied. “Your blood carries the Guardian line. With it, the bond can be rewritten. You’ll still live, but the connection will belong to me.”
I stepped forward, the runes glowing brighter as I crossed them. “You won’t touch that bond.”
“You can’t stop it,” she said. “The ritual has already begun.”
The air shifted, growing dense. The runes pulsed beneath our feet, and the bowl began to shimmer. I could feel the pull of it, a tug deep inside me, like something trying to strip away a part of who I was.
I pushed back, not with strength, but with focus. The Guardian blood that Clara thought she could use against me stirred. I had never tried to use it before. I’d been told it was dangerous, that the power demanded control no one truly possessed. But there was no other choice.
