The battle between Jayden and Alpha Darius shook the entire forest.
Their massive wolf forms clashed again and again, sending dust and broken branches flying everywhere.
Darius was stronger than any enemy Jayden had faced before.
His red eyes glowed with a strange dark energy.
Jayden attacked again, aiming for Darius's shoulder.
But suddenly—
Darius moved faster than expected.
With a powerful swipe of his claws, he struck Jayden across the side.
The black Alpha wolf crashed into the ground with a heavy thud.
Ariana felt her heart stop.
"Jayden!" she shouted.
Kayden grabbed her arm quickly.
"Stay back!"
Jayden slowly stood up again, but blood was visible on his side.
Darius laughed coldly.
"You're strong… but not strong enough."
The dark Alpha stepped forward again.
"Do you know why they call me the Dark Fang?"
Suddenly, a strange black aura began spreading around his wolf form.
The ground beneath him turned darker.
Even the pack wolves felt uneasy.
One of the elders whispered in fear.
"That's forbidden power…"
Darius attacked again, this time with terrifying force.
Jayden tried to block the attack, but the dark energy pushed him back.
He crashed into a large tree.
The forest went silent.
Ariana felt fear rising inside her chest.
"No…"
The silver energy inside her began glowing again.
Her hands started shining with moonlight.
Kayden noticed immediately.
"Oh no…"
The energy around Ariana exploded outward.
A wave of silver light spread across the clearing.
The moonlight above suddenly became brighter.
Darius stopped attacking and looked toward her.
His eyes filled with excitement.
"So the Moon Heir finally shows her true power."
Jayden slowly stood again despite his injuries.
His eyes turned toward Ariana.
The power inside her was growing stronger.
Stronger than anyone expected.
And this time…
The battle was no longer just between two Alphas.
Now the Moon Heir herself had entered the fight.
