Aiden's POV
I crashed through the window, glass breaking around me as I rolled into the nursery. Three cultists whirled to face me, their silver blades gleaming in the moonlight. Behind them, the imposter child, the one that looked exactly like Luna, sat on the floor, watching with those disturbing silver eyes.
"Get away from her," I growled, my body already shifting. Bones cracked and muscles tore as my wolf form burst through my skin faster than I'd ever transformed before.
The cultists backed away, making a protective circle around the fake Luna.
"The Guardian returns," one whispered, sounding almost pleased. "The circle nears completion."
I didn't waste time asking questions. These people had invaded Shadow Creek land twice now, threatening the real Luna each time. With a roar, I lunged at the nearest cultist, my jaws clamping around his arm. He screamed as bones crunched between my teeth.
