Chapter 72: She did it...!

Author

Lilith didn’t wait for Hazel to move again.

Her heart ached, her claws trembled...but she couldn’t hold back anymore.

With a low growl, she lunged forward, her body shifting mid-air, half-wolf, half-witch, the pure essence of Crescent power wrapped around her like a second skin.

Hazel didn’t flinch.But Lilith struck first

She threw a glowing orb of silver energy, aimed at Hazel’s chest. Hazel dodged, barely, but Lilith was already behind her with a sharp kick that sent Hazel flying back against the stone wall. The force cracked the wall behind her.

Hazel groaned but stood up, brushing the dust off her shirt. "Okay... that actually hurt a little."

Lilith didn’t let her recover. She came at her again, this time using her claws. The two clashed hard...Hazel fought back, fast and wild, power bursting from her fingertips like sparks. She moved like someone possessed, her reflexes almost too sharp, too perfect.

But Lilith had the experience.

She didn’t just use Crescent strength..she used everything.

Her wolf snarled, biting through shadows. Her magic curled around Hazel like smoke. Every spell, every claw, every strike landed harder than the last.

Hazel hissed and fought back with brutal force, but the difference started to show.

Lilith was fighting for more than just pride.

She was fighting for her daughter’s soul.

They crashed into walls, shattered the floor beneath them, and sent shockwaves through the room. Power pulsed in violent waves. The air crackled.

And then—

With a final chant and a blinding beam of Crescent light, Lilith knocked Hazel off her feet.

She slammed into the ground, unmoving. Unconscious.

Mother knows best

Lilith stood over her, chest heaving, sweat dripping down her forehead. Her heart was breaking in her chest.

She had fought her daughter.

Her own daughter.

She dropped to her knees beside Hazel’s limp body and brushed her fingers gently through her dark hair.
