When the Last Candle Sang to the Ocean Wind by Aurelion Kyre Solvane 66 Summary Audrey steadies herself before entering a room where her daughter Chloe immediately seeks news of Tessa, who has been missing for days. Chloe's hope quickly fades when Audrey reveals she has found no trace of Tessa. Frustrated and angry, Chloe lashes out, blaming Tessa for trying to destroy her and declaring her own right to be the future Luna of the Bloodmoon Pack. Audrey confronts Chloe sharply, accusing her of having stolen Tessa's boyfriend and questioning her hatred toward her sister.
The tension escalates as Audrey exposes Chloe's deceit, revealing that Chloe is not her real daughter but an imposter who has been pretending to be part of the family for years. Chloe's facade crumbles under Audrey's accusations, especially when confronted about a missing halfmoon-shaped necklace that only the true daughter would have. Audrey's anger culminates in a slap and a demand for Chloe to leave the pack, accusing her of waiting for Tessa's death to take her place.
Chloe pleads to stay, but Audrey's resolve is unshaken, and she threatens to have the pack's warriors remove Chloe if she does not leave voluntarily. In a final bitter exchange, Chloe accuses Audrey of being responsible for Tessa's disappearance and the family's misery, fueling Audrey's guilt and pain. Overcome by emotion, Audrey collapses, prompting urgent medical attention. As Audrey is taken to the hospital, Chloe is gripped by fear, knowing Liam's strong loyalty to Audrey and worrying about the consequences if he learns what has happened.
The chapter ends with a tense atmosphere, highlighting the fractured family dynamics and looming conflict. Continue Regular Chapter Reading Below Audrey inhaled deeply, steadying her nerves before making her way up the stairs. The moment she stepped inside the room, Chloe rushed toward her, throwing herself into her mother's arms with desperate urgency. "Mom, have you found Tessa yet?" Chloe's voice trembled, filled with a flicker of hope that Audrey found hard to share. Audrey's gaze was icy as she shook her head slowly.
The hope that had briefly lit up Chloe's face vanished instantly, replaced by a shadow of disappointment that darkened her features. "How many days has it been now?" Chloe muttered bitterly, her voice thick with frustration and anger. "Tessa did this on purpose-she wanted to destroy me and then just walk away. But I won't let her get away with it." "Why do you harbor such hatred for your sister?" Audrey's tone was sharp, cutting through Chloe's words like a blade. Chloe froze, startled by the unfamiliar sharpness in her mother's voice.
She had never seen Audrey look at her with such intensity. "It's Tessa who hates me!" Chloe snapped back, her anger flaring. "She humiliated me in front of everyone." "I am the future Luna of the Bloodmoon Pack," Chloe declared loudly, her voice trembling with righteous fury. "If she insults me, she's insulting the entire pack. I won't let her walk away from this." Audrey remained silent, her face unreadable as she studied her daughter carefully. "Isn't it you who first stole your sister's boyfriend?

You cheated on her with her mate," Audrey's voice cut through Chloe's defenses, cold and accusing. "Tell me, what exactly has Tessa done to deserve this?" For the first time, Audrey felt a fierce anger toward Chloe that she hadn't expected, and it shook her deeply. Chloe's face shifted, her usual bravado crumbling as Audrey's words sank in, leaving her feeling exposed and vulnerable. "Mom, why are you siding with her? I'm your daughter!" Chloe cried, frustration and hurt rising in her voice. Audrey's eyes narrowed in resolve.
Without saying another word, she grabbed a diary from the table and hurled it toward Chloe. "Do you still think you can fool me? Pretending to be my real daughter all these years? Using Tessa's story to deceive me?" Audrey's voice trembled with a mix of anger and disbelief. "How dare you claim to be my true child?" Chloe's eyes widened in shock, unable to believe they had uncovered the truth. She had been so meticulous, so careful to hide everything-how could they have seen through her lies?
She opened the diary and scanned the pages filled with confessions and details, her eyes growing red as anxiety gnawed at her nerves. "So what if this is Tessa's way of trying to drive a wedge between us?" Chloe snapped, her voice defensive but shaky. Audrey let out a bitter laugh, unimpressed by the feeble excuse. "Then tell me, where is the halfmoon-shaped necklace I gave you when you were born?" she demanded. Chloe froze at the mention of the necklace, then forced a laugh to mask her discomfort. "That?
It's been so long, it must have been taken by the orphanage director," she replied with false confidence. But Audrey knew better-there had never been any such necklace. Chloe's silence only confirmed her suspicions. Before Chloe could react, Audrey's hand shot out, delivering a sharp slap across her daughter's face. The force stunned Chloe into silence. "Stop lying to me!" Audrey shouted, her voice shaking with fury. "You are not my real daughter!" "You've been waiting for Tessa to die so you could take her place as Luna of this pack, haven't you?" Audrey accused, her eyes blazing.
Chloe clutched her cheek, her eyes bloodshot with a mixture of rage and pain. "So what if I have?" she sneered. "She's not fit to be Luna of the pack! I've been your daughter for over ten years-what's wrong with that?" Her words dripped with entitlement, as if she believed her deception was justified. But for Audrey, every thought of Tessa brought a sharp ache to her heart. "Get out of my sight! Leave the pack!" Audrey's voice cracked with uncontrollable anger. Chloe's face paled at the command, panic flooding her eyes. "Please, don't make me leave.
I won't do it again," she begged, tears streaming freely as she clung to Audrey. Audrey couldn't bear to hear another word. She wished Chloe would disappear from her life forever. "You better leave now, or I'll have the warriors throw you out," Audrey said coldly, her tone final. Seeing the steely determination in her mother's eyes, Chloe stopped pretending to be innocent. She wiped away her tears and fixed Audrey with a cold, hard glare. "You think kicking me out will bring Tessa back? Do you really believe she'll return to you as your daughter?" Chloe sneered bitterly.
"It's because of you that she's gone. All this misery is your doing!" Her accusations spilled out like venom, each word sharper than the last. Audrey knew she hadn't treated Tessa well, but hearing it from Chloe felt like a cruel blow. Overwhelmed by the flood of emotions, a sudden dizziness overtook Audrey, and she collapsed to the floor. The maid rushed forward in alarm, calling frantically for the pack doctor. Meanwhile, Liam hurriedly wrapped up his pack meeting and made his way to the hospital, unaware of what had just transpired.
Outside the hospital room, Chloe's legs trembled uncontrollably, gripped by fear. She had always known Liam's fierce devotion to Audrey. If he discovered that Audrey had collapsed because of her, there was no telling what might happen next. Conclusion The chapter closes on a tempest of raw emotions, revealing the fragile fractures within this family bound by blood and betrayal. Audrey's confrontation with Chloe unearths painful truths, exposing the tangled web of lies and resentments that have festered beneath the surface.
The sharp clash between mother and daughter not only lays bare their fractured trust but also highlights the deep yearning for identity and acceptance that drives them both. Amidst the accusations and heartbreak, the weight of past mistakes and the longing for redemption hang heavy in the air, leaving all parties vulnerable and uncertain. As Audrey collapses, the physical manifestation of her emotional turmoil, the story poignantly captures the toll of fractured relationships and the devastating consequences of deception.
With Audrey's sudden collapse, the emotional stakes are raised, and the true extent of Chloe's deception and ambition may come to light in ways that will shock the pack and test loyalties. The simmering resentment and bitter accusations hint at unresolved wounds that could either tear the family apart or force them to confront painful truths. As Liam rushes to Audrey's side, his protective instincts and leadership will be put to the test, potentially complicating the already volatile dynamics between mother, daughters, and the pack.
The emotional turmoil brewing beneath the surface suggests that no one will emerge unscathed, and the question remains: will the pack find a way to heal, or will the shadows of betrayal and heartbreak deepen? Readers can anticipate a chapter filled with raw emotion, shifting alliances, and the haunting question of what it truly means to belong.
