Chapter 63: Silver Fire Omniscient POV Lily’s Triple Moon mark burst like a star being born. Silver fire exploded from her wrist and spread across her entire body, turning her into a blazing figure of pure light. The power was so intense that everyone in the Sacred Grove had to protect their eyes. Even Morrigan, floating in the air with her stolen wolf bonds, stumbled backward from the burning heat. "What’s happening to her?" Caleb screamed, trying to reach Lily but unable to get close to the silver flames circling her. Elder Iris’s voice was filled with awe and fear. "She’s burning herself out completely. Using every drop of Triple Moon power at once." Around the world, wolves felt the change quickly. In a small house in Canada, a father suddenly remembered why he loved his daughter and pulled her into a fierce hug. In a hospital in Japan, a new mother looked down at her baby and felt overwhelming love fill her heart. In Germany, an elderly pair reached for each other’s hands as sixty years of memories came rushing back. But for every link that snapped back into place, Lily grew dimmer. "Stop!" Morrigan screamed from above. She tried to pull the links back under her control, but the silver fire was too strong. "Those bonds belong to me now!" "They never belonged to you," Lily’s words echoed from within the flames, though her body was barely visible anymore. "Love can’t be bought. It can only be given freely." The silver fire spread outward like ripples in a pond, touching every corrupted link Morrigan had tried to steal. Pack bonds snapped tight again. Mate connections blazed back to life. Family ties strengthened and glowed with fresh warmth. Aiden gasped as he suddenly felt his brothers’ presence in his mind again. "Brock! Caleb! I can feel you both!" "The pack bond is back!" Brock yelled, spinning around as he sensed every member of Silver Peak Pack again. The children hiding with Elder Iris were no longer scared strangers but loving pack family. Luna, who had been wandering around confused, suddenly straightened as her place in the pack order became clear again. But the most striking change was in Caleb. The mate bond with Lily, which had been dimming to nothing, suddenly burned brighter than ever. He could feel her love, her determination, her readiness to sacrifice everything for others. He could also feel her dying. "Lily, you have to stop!" He fought against the silver flames, ignoring the burns on his hands. "You’re using too much power!" "I have to finish it," her voice was getting weaker. "If I don’t use all the power now, some of the corruption will stay. It’ll spread again." Across the world, the healing continued. Wolves who had forgotten their pack loyalty suddenly remembered their tasks. Parents who had looked at their children with empty eyes were now crying with joy as love rushed back. Entire packs that had fallen apart were reuniting, stronger than before. But with each restored link, more of Lily’s life force burned away. Morrigan knew she was losing and made a desperate choice. Instead of fighting the silver fire, she dove right into it. "If you want to save everyone so badly," she growled, "then save me too!" She grabbed onto Lily within the fire, and something shocking happened. Instead of being killed by the Triple Moon power, Morrigan began to change. The centuries of bitterness and rage that had corrupted her started burning away like shadows in sunshine. "What’s happening to me?" Morrigan gasped as memories rushed back – not of pain and rejection, but of the love she’d known before it all went wrong. Her mate, who had died protecting their pack. Her children, who had been killed in a rogue attack. The sorrow that had twisted her into something evil began to heal. "You’re remembering who you used to be," Lily said gently, even as her own power faded. "Before the pain changed you." Tears streamed down Morrigan’s face as the silver fire cleansed decades of evil from her soul. "I lost everything. I couldn’t bear it. So I decided to make everyone else lose everything too." "Loss doesn’t have to make you evil," Lily whispered. "It can make you compassionate instead." The healing spread to Morrigan completely, burning away the last of her dark magic. She fell to the ground, no longer a powerful sorceress but just a broken woman who had finally found peace. But the cost was huge. Lily’s Triple Moon mark, which had blazed like a star, began to flicker like a dying light. The silver fire around her grew smaller and smaller as the last of her power flowed out to heal the final corrupted bonds around the world. "No, no, no!" Caleb caught her as she collapsed, her body now fully human again. The Triple Moon mark on her wrist was gone, leaving only clear skin behind. "Stay with me!" "I can feel it," Lily said softly. "Every wolf tie in the world is pure again. Families loving each other. Packs working together. Mates finding each other." "But what about our bond?" Caleb’s voice broke. "I can still feel you, but it’s getting weaker." Lily touched his face gently. "The Triple Moon power is gone. Soon our mate link will fade too. We’ll be strangers again." "I don’t care!" he said furiously. "Mate bond or no mate bond, I choose to love you. Every day, for the rest of my life, I choose you." She smiled through her tears. "And I choose you too." Around them, the Silver Peak Pack grouped close. Aiden and Brock knelt beside their brother. Elder Iris put a gentle hand on Lily’s forehead. Even Luna, tears streaming down her face, reached out to comfort the girl who had given everything. But then something impossible happened. Instead of going away, the mate bond between Lily and Caleb began to glow brighter. Not with Triple Moon magic, but with something else entirely. "Look," Elder Iris whispered in surprise. Every member of Silver Peak Pack was glowing softly. Their pack bonds had grown so strong during the crisis that they were creating their own magic. And all of that power was flowing toward Lily and Caleb, wrapping around their link like armor. "The pack is feeding power into your mate bond," Elder Iris stated. "They’re refusing to let it die." But before anyone could celebrate, the ground beneath them started to shake violently. The Sacred Grove, corrupted for so long, was crumbling now that Morrigan’s magic was gone. And in the distance, something far worse was coming. A howl echoed across the mountains – but it wasn’t from any dog. It was from something old and hungry that had been sleeping beneath the earth, waiting for the magical chaos to wake it up. "What is that?" Aiden asked, his face pale. Elder Iris’s eyes went wide with fear. "The Shadow Beast. Morrigan’s poison was keeping it asleep. Now that she’s been cleaned..." The howl came again, closer this time, and the very air seemed to turn cold with fear. "It’s coming for the Triple Moon bearer," Elder Iris whispered. "And it won’t stop until it devours every drop of magic left in her."
