My Mate Become My Hunter

My Mate Become My Hunter

‎ ‎“Lyra, what are you?” Kaely’s voice shattered, stepping back as Lyra hovered, power crackling through the air. “This isn’t possible you’re one of them!” ‎“I don’t even know what I am!” Lyra cried, trembling midair. “But I am not your enemy!” ‎“You’re a Moon Caster,” Kaely snarled. “And I will hunt you like one.” ‎ ‎•••••••••• ‎ ‎Twenty years after the Lunar Reversal shattered the world, Lyra’s dream of belonging turns into a nightmare when Kaely her fated mate becomes her executioner. Branded an abomination, Lyra must survive a brutal wasteland while unraveling the truth of her forbidden power. ‎ ‎Alongside Cassian, a rebellious shifter who challenges everything she believes, and Milo, a mysterious hybrid who mirrors her curse, Lyra confronts a haunting reality: the bond meant to complete her is destroying her. ‎ ‎This gripping tale subverts classic shifter romance, blending betrayal, survival, and identity into a dark, emotional journey where the heroine is the very monster her world fears. ‎ ‎Will Lyra master her power or be consumed by it? ‎Can she break the bond before it leads her to death?

Chapter: Chapter 7
Somehow—I have no idea how—I manage to sleep.I dream, vaguely, about Kaely. It’s one of those dreams where I know it’s him even though I don’t actually see him. I’m aware of his presence, mocking me, jeering at me. Rejecting me.I wake up in a cold sweat, aching to go back to him, tormented by the fact that he’s nowhere near me and that I’ll probably never see him again.I don’t want to see him again—and yet I’m craving him like oxygen. I need to make a plan.I need to know where I’m going.And as that thought comes to me, I realize I already know where I want to go.There’s one thing I’ve been preparing myself to do for my whole life, and that’s hunt Moon Casters. Whatever I am, whatever I’ve found out about myself, that doesn’t change. I’ve been training all my life, dreaming of being one of the greatest Moon Caster hunters who’s ever lived.If I can get hold of one of them, take him prisoner, maybe I can get some answers about who and what I really am.Before I leave the store, th

Chapter: Chapter 6
“Lyra,” Bruce says again, his voice perfectly calm and confident. “Come on out, now.”He’s so sure he’s going to be obeyed. Of course he’s sure. The Alpha’s orders are always followed.I’ll obey him now, even though I’m going to my death.Throughout the store, the sounds of things being trashed have let up, and I can tell that whoever else is here has stopped ransacking the place looking for me. They’re probably standing there with big smirks on their faces, perfectly aware that they don’t have to find me now because I’m just going to hand myself over.And suddenly, I’m furious.What right do they have to take away my free will like this?I’ve always accepted following my Alpha’s rule as a part of pack life. Bruce is a good Alpha. Every order he has ever given has been to make the pack stronger.But that’s not what’s happening here. I’ve been one of them all my life, and they’re just going to kill me because Kaely says I’m a Moon Caster. There’s not even any evidence!No.I’m not goin

Chapter: Chapter 5
The wolf takes over quickly, and I’m glad. It might be what saves me, because I can hear the voices behind me trying to figure out what’s just happened.“Moon Caster!?”“What do you mean, Moon Caster?”“I’m telling you, she did magic in our tent! She’s been lying about who she is this whole time!”That’s definitely not true. I’ve never deceived the pack! That’s the greatest crime a wolf can commit. I’d never, ever do it.And I’m not a Moon Caster. I can’t be. Because I know what Moon Casters are. They’re an evil sect. They only care about themselves—about gaining power. They were so desperate for power that they overused their moon magic and pulled the moon out of its orbit.They’re the reason almost all the humans are dead. They’re the reason my mother, who died trying to give birth, is dead. Everything that’s wrong in our world—Moon Casters are to blame for it.No. I’m not one of them. It’s insane. I can’t be.But then, what happened back there?Because Kaely is right. Wolves don’t

Chapter: Chapter 4
“Nice job,” Bruce says, clapping us on the shoulder. “You’re the first back. I knew you would be a good pair.”I beam with pride as we drop our kill by the fire—the older members of the pack will dispose of the body; that isn’t work for new mates to do tonight—and make our way to our tent.It’s on the other side of the clearing from the tent where I got ready with the other women. This tent is smaller, and it’s just for the two of us.“How did you know where he would be?” Kaely asks.“I don’t know,” I say.And now that we’re here, I really don’t want to waste time talking about the hunt. We’re still naked from our shift. I’m running my hands all over him, and he’s already hard, no doubt helped along by the exertion of hunting and killing a Moon Caster.Still, he stops me. He holds me away at arm’s length.“You didn’t follow the scent,” he says, his eyes narrowed. “The scent turned to the side, but you went straight on.”“Why are you complaining?” I ask him. “It was the right call, was

Chapter: Chapter 3
I hardly take notice as the men who weren’t chosen are shuffled away off the field. I’ve paid attention to them in past years because they stay behind while the new mates go off on the hunt together. I’ve always observed how angry it makes them.But tonight, my thoughts are a million miles away from them, because I’m about to have my own official first hunt with my mate.“Bring out the quarry!” Bruce calls.A group of five Moon Casters, bound at the wrists and attached to a long iron chain, are led out. It was a pure accident that we learned iron disrupts their magic, but I’m glad we know it—because it allows us to keep them captive.These five would have been killed when they were caught if we hadn’t needed them for the hunt. As it is, we’ve been saving them all year.Which means this isn’t going to be a real hunt. These prisoners aren’t anywhere near their full strength. They’ve been deprived of nutrition and sleep, unable to use their magic, for months. Maybe they hope to escape, b

Chapter: Chapter 2
He surveys the five of us women who stand shoulder to shoulder, then turns and looks at the men across from us.And then, turning in a slow circle, he takes in the entire pack around us. “Every year,” he says quietly, “our pack grows older.”This is met with silence. We all know what he means, and yet the story is an important part of the ceremony. He’s reminding us of why tonight is the greatest night for our pack.“In the first year following the Lunar Reversal,” he says, “our pack had a full generation of children. We counted ourselves lucky then. We called ourselves survivors because we had managed through strength and cunning to evade the natural disasters and wild elements that eliminated so many after the Moon Casters did their evil.”I look up at the moon. It looks perfectly normal to me, of course, but the Lunar Reversal happened twenty years ago. I don’t have any memory of what things were like before.My mother, before she died, told me that the other side of the moon used
