Fated to the Alpha–And His Triplet Brothers

Chapter 64

Chapter 64: The rise of the crescent

*~Lilith’s POV~*

I had set a timer on myself..,one that would awaken me the moment that child was born.

But I wasn’t expecting it to be so soon.

I rose from the graveyard where I had buried myself, cloaked in soil and silence, and immediately reached for the Dreamer. The child had arrived.

I needed to get to the High House. Now.

But... why so soon? I expected months—at least. Not this sudden.

Something’s wrong. The child must remain intact, untouched, whole, for me to complete the ritual. To lay my hands on it. To awaken my crescents.

It should be there. In the High House. The exact place the prophecy promised.

So I moved. And when I arrived at the gates of the High House... my jaw dropped.

This wasn’t the scene I expected.

No celebration. No music. No roaring joy of a Luna giving birth.

Only death. The front doors were wide open...careless, ominous. As if chaos had walked right in and taken residence. I stepped inside.

And froze.

The floor was littered with wolves. Some bloodied. Some groaning. Others lying too still. From upstairs and downstairs, I could feel the vibrating tension of hundreds of wolves shifting, growling, surrounding hazel..

She stood in the center of it all, dagger in hand. Her stance? Like a goddess of war. Her aura? Like nothing I had felt in decades.

I immediately looked to her stomach. Flat. No signs of recent birth. What?

Where is the child?

My eyes darted to Cayden, crumpled on the floor, held back by his parents. Caspian, too, was on his feet, watching Hazel with something between heartbreak and terror.

What the hell happened here? And then—it hit me.

Her power had awakened.

That would explain the immense strengthfrom her. The storm in her gaze. And the dominance she holds.

But how?

What could’ve triggered her crescent?

She was mid-step, about to attack rage shimmering in every part of her being...when I moved without thought.

I fired the arrow. It struck her straight in the chest.

She stumbled.

Collapsed to her knees.

And Caspian ran to her, cradling her body in his arms. His voice shook as he tried to wake her.

Cayden’s head whipped toward me, eyes wide.

I stepped forward, pulled off my wide-brimmed hat, and watched the recognition dawn on every face in that room.
