Moon Shadow：A werewolf's struggle

Chapter 8: The Coming of Crisis

The moon gradually rose to the sky, casting a cold silver light. Lin Yue walked alone in the woods, feeling the call of the moonlight. This call made him both excited and frightened. He could feel the power in his body accumulating, ready to burst out at any time.

"Lin Yue, the moon is particularly bright today." Li Mo's voice came from behind, and he appeared silently beside Lin Yue, as if he was part of the night.

"Yes, I can feel it." Lin Yue responded with a hint of nervousness in her tone.

"You need to learn to control yourself better on a full moon night." Li Mo whispered, "Today's training will be more difficult, but it is crucial for you."

Lin Yue nodded and followed Li Mo to an open space. This is where they have trained many times, but the atmosphere tonight is particularly different. The moonlight illuminated the entire open space, and the surrounding woods rustled in the wind, as if whispering about the upcoming danger.

"Are you ready?" Li Mo asked, with determination and concern in his eyes.

"Ready." Lin Yue took a deep breath and tried to calm down. He knew that today's training would be a double test of his will and strength.

As time went by, Lin Yue felt that the changes in his body became more and more obvious, and the power in his body began to become active under the moonlight. His skin began to become hot and his heartbeat gradually accelerated, as if something was awakening in his body.

Li Mo stood aside, staring at Lin Yue's every move. He knew that tonight would be a critical moment for Lin Yue to control his power, but it was also full of unpredictable dangers.

Lin Yue closed his eyes and tried to concentrate on controlling the changes in his body. But suddenly, a sharp pain came from his limbs, his body began to tremble violently, his nails grew rapidly,

as sharp as a blade, and his skin began to c***k, revealing the faint hair underneath.

"Don't resist it, accept it." Li Mo's voice rang in Lin Yue's ears, but Lin Yue could hardly hear it. His consciousness began to blur, and his reason gradually collapsed under the impact of this powerful force.

"Lin Yue, calm down!" Li Mo ordered loudly. He knew that Lin Yue must keep his sanity, otherwise tonight's training would end in failure.

But Lin Yue had lost control, and the wild power in his body broke out completely. His eyes turned blood red, and a low roar came out of his mouth, and the whole person seemed to have turned into a ferocious beast.

Li Mo realized that the situation was not good, and he quickly approached Lin Yue, trying to suppress him with his own strength. But Lin Yue's power was too strong, and Li Mo felt an irresistible impact in the brief contact.

"Damn it!" Li Mo gritted his teeth. He knew that if Lin Yue was allowed to lose control, the consequences would be disastrous. He had to take action as soon as possible to help Lin Yue regain his sanity.

Li Mo quickly performed the control technique he learned in the secret organization, which is a method of temporarily weakening the power of werewolves by stimulating specific areas of the brain. Although it was risky for him, he had no choice.

He pressed his palm on Lin Yue's forehead and concentrated all his energy on performing the control technique. Lin Yue's body struggled violently, but as the control technique was used, his movements gradually slowed down, and the red light in his eyes gradually faded.

Finally, Lin Yue's body returned to normal, and he collapsed to the ground, weak and soaked with sweat. He opened his eyes and saw Li Mo standing beside him, his face full of fatigue and worry.

"You... you saved me?" Lin Yue asked weakly, with a hint of uncertainty in his voice.

"Yes," Li Mo sighed, "You almost lost control, but fortunately we stopped it in time."

Lin Yue felt a fear, he had never been so close to the edge of losing his mind, this feeling made him feel extremely scared. He knew that he almost became a complete beast and completely lost his humanity.

"I... I thought I could control it." Lin Yue whispered painfully, covering his head with his hands, his heart full of self-blame and fear.

"Controlling this power is not a matter of one day or one night." Li Mo's voice softened, he knew Lin Yue's inner struggle at the moment. "You've done well. The moon tonight is particularly strong. It's hard for any werewolf to fully control themselves."

Lin Yue was silent. He knew that what Li Mo said was true, but it didn't ease the pain in his heart.

"You have to believe in yourself," Li Mo continued, with a firm tone. "You experienced the edge of losing control tonight, but you finally regained your sanity. This proves that you have the ability to control it. You just need more training."

"But what if I lose control again?" Lin Yue whispered, with a hint of fear in his eyes. "What will happen if I can't control this power?"

"Then we will be here to help you regain your sanity." Li Mo said firmly, "You won't face this alone. I will always be by your side."

Lin Yue looked up at Li Mo. He felt a long-lost sense of peace. Although he was still full of uneasiness and fear in his heart, he knew he was not alone.

It was late at night, and Li Mo decided to take Lin Yue away from the open space. They needed a safer place for Lin Yue to rest and regain his sanity. He supported Lin Yue and walked out of the woods slowly, his heart still full of contradictions.

Li Mo knew that his concern for Lin Yue had gone beyond the scope of a mentor, but he could not ignore the strong desire to protect her. This emotion confused him and made his mission more complicated when he was carrying out the secret organization's mission.

They finally found a secret shelter. After Li Mo settled Lin Yue, he walked outside alone and looked up at the bright moon in the night sky, his heart full of contradictions and confusion.

"What am I doing?" Li Mo asked himself in his heart. He knew that he was gradually losing his calmness about the mission, but he could not control his emotions.

This inner struggle was not only about the conflict between power and responsibility, but also about the choice between his feelings for Lin Yue and his mission. Li Mo knew that he had to make a choice, but this choice might make him lose everything.
