Broken trust: Luna's awakening
“Maybe I'll come back later. I'm sorry,” I said, tension strangling my voice.
“No, please. Stay!” He said in a calm tone. I looked at him hysterically, and, like he had just recognised his own nudity, he smiled confidently. “I'll just put on something if you're uncomfortable.”
“Uncomfortable?” I scoffed, trying to sound assuring. “No, I'm not uncomfortable. I've seen a lot of naked boys.”
He shot a glance at me, sending a thrill running down my chest. “Boys?” He asked, closing the distance between us.
He grabbed my left hand and placed it on his hard breast, his heart beating steady, a stark contrast to mine, which raced like an antelope running from a predator in a jungle.
“Well… I've seen a lot of naked boys, but not a naked man…” I whispered softly, gazing and feeling lost in his starry eyes.

Chapter: CHAPTER 141: Happily ever after?NARAH'S POV Arthur and Dahlia. Oh dear! Arthur and Dahlia visited and asked for forgiveness, but I had already forgiven them. Besides, I became friends with their son, Luca. He was a really nice kid. Hanadin and Rachael started dating with her father's permission. Beta Henry had a change of heart toward Hanadin. Although, he said Hanadin was weird. Bryan asked Liora out, and she responded with a big fat “No.” Good heavens, she had been avoiding him recently. He wouldn't stop accompanying her wherever she went, and he promised he would wait for her until she changed her mind. “Or until he meets his fated mate,” Liora told me when recounting the story of how he tailed her to the store when she went to get groceries with Cindy. Bryan and Jeremiah got closer and became inseparable. Beta Solomon's wife still didn't like Bryan, but Jeremiah didn’t care and told her it wasn't Bryan's fault that her husband slept with another woman and brought forth a son—Bryan. How sweet. Br

Chapter: CHAPTER 140: Home is where the heart isNARAH’S POV It was finally over. The Moon Jade was gone. The weight that had burdened so many for centuries had finally been lifted. I could feel the peace settling into my bones, like the calm after a storm. The power that had once ruled over so many was now nothing but dust and memory. The curse was broken, and it was over. When I focused all of my powers into extracting it from Beta Bernard, my mind was disturbed by memories of how the Jade had been passed down through generations. Many years after Jenna and Ophelia's death, the farmers working on the land to build a bridge dug up Jenna's remains from her grave, and that was how they discovered the Moon Jade. It was later passed on from one Alpha to another, a King to another, a governor, a Duke, a duchess, and they all had one name for it: “the cursed gemstone” due to the number of people who had died because of it. Many had tried to destroy the Moon Jade, but it wouldn't budge. So, it was sold to a princess who gav

Chapter: CHAPTER 139: The cost of battleNARAH'S POV I couldn’t afford to break down in front of Alpha Van, not now. I forced my lips into a smile, but even I could see how hollow it was. I wasn’t okay—nothing about this was okay—but I couldn’t let him carry that burden alone. “I'm good. Are you okay?” “My love... I’m sorry,” he whispered, his voice full of raw emotion. “I can't let you fight all by yourself.” “You don't have to worry, ” I assured him, the vacant emptiness in my eyes returning, revealing the presence of my hybrid wolf. “We’ll fix this. Together.” Minisi had done her part—to protect the foetus, but now, if she didn't lend me her full strength, there would be no home for my unborn child, or the people of Vaelothor to live in. My bones groaned in protest as they stretched, snapping and dislocating with a sickening crunch. A searing pain tore through my muscles, each shift a fresh agony, my skin stretching and tearing as though it couldn’t contain the transformation. The heat from within radiated o

Chapter: CHAPTER 138: The battle between light and dark NARAH'S POV Van’s muscles bulged with effort as he absorbed the impact, his body seizing under the power with a coldness such as I had never seen. I could feel his pain through the bond we shared.With a guttural scream, his body surged forward, breaking through the dark energy like a battering ram. He wasn’t fully healed, but he was strong—strong enough to fight for us.Beta Bernard's eyes widened in surprise. He had expected the lethal force to end Alpha Van's life in the frightful encounter.“Thank goodness,” I muttered under my breath, taking a stand by Curtis's (Alpha Van) side.He had taken a blow meant for me. I was more than grateful that he had, but I just prayed that he was truly okay and that nothing awful would happen to him.He didn’t let Beta Bernard’s attack stop him. He was back, fighting for what was right, and I fought by his side.“Change of plan,” Beta Bernard said, blocking my kicks. “I'm going to kill both of you right here.”“I'd like to see you try,” I raved.

Chapter: CHAPTER 137: The truth there isNARAH'S POV Standing face to face with Van's direwolf, my heart leaped for joy. As my hands slowly trailed over its soft, stunning black fur, it growled tenderly, leaning its head on my arm.Suddenly, with the speed of light, Beta Bernard grabbed me from the side, lifting me into the air, his laughter cutting through the atmosphere like a blade.“Let me go,” I shouted, the wisps of my breath curling in the air as I wriggled in his arms. I could see Alpha Van's wolf running after us, its gaze drifting toward the sky now and then. I didn't even get a moment more to rejoice at his breaking free.Although I had initially wanted to get to Beta Bernard, now that I was soaring about twenty thousand feet above the ground and knowing he had the power to throw me off at any moment, I had a change of heart.“I'll show you what real power looks like,” he said, focusing above as he rose higher.My heart was pounding rapidly, my stomach churning with every gust of air I breathed in. “Murdering p

Chapter: CHAPTER 136: PowerNARAH'S POV I wiped my tears, smiling and nodding, but it was only for a split second before the creature pounced on me, pinning me to the ground. It seemed to be fighting with the voices in its head, staggering back, growling, and throwing punches at its own head.My heart hammered in my chest as my shuddering legs managed to find the strength to support me. Frantically, I dashed through the clearing once more. However, Beta Bernard was no longer in sight. The creature—Van— was hot on my heels again, a twisted shadow of the man I loved. Each desperate step felt like it could be my last, but there was no time to stop.No! I couldn't stop. Not now, not when Beta Bernard was still out there, controlling everything and planning to destroy people's lives.I glanced over my shoulder just in time to see Alpha Van stumble again, his paws pounding the earth, his body fighting against the unnatural force that gripped him.It was as if a part of him, deep inside, was beginning to take charge,

Chapter: 20.☆☆SUMMER’S POV☆☆The restaurant was too fancy, too quiet, and way too full of smiling families. This was the kind of place rich folks would be at for dinner, not us.We weren’t poor, but dinner here would cost dad a fortune. A bottle of water was twenty five dollars. That was Insanely expensive. Next, they'd be charging us for the air we breathe.I sat across from Dad and Keith at a round table with folded napkins and the said twenty dollar water that tasted like metal.“What are you doing, Keith?” I asked.“I’m searching for the precious diamonds,” he said, scrutinizing the water in a glass cup.“You’re going to be looking for a long, long time.” I emptied my glass.Dad had insisted on “one last dinner” before I left for college. Said it was tradition. Said he wanted us to feel like a family again.“Keith, stop playing with the water,” Dad said, not even looking up from the menu. “It goes in your mouth.”Keith swirled his glass. “I’m trying to figure out why it costs more than my sou

Chapter: 19.☆☆SUMMER’S POV☆☆What?My gaze flicked to Jake. Of course I was speechless. What do you even say when your best friend accuses you of catching feelings for his older brother—the human embodiment of red flags?Still, silence felt more dangerous than whatever lie I could string together. So I laughed nervously. Like a psychopath.“God forbid I’m in love with Hayden. That’s just gross. Ewww.”“Right?” Jake’s shoulders, previously locked in full panic mode, finally dropped a little. “I didn’t think it through. It was a stupid question. But… what did you say to Hayden that made him come here? Do you have his number? Let me see.”Oh, so now we’re FBI-ing? Cool.I rolled my eyes. “I told you, he was here to see my dad.”“I still don’t believe you, though.”“Trust me, Jake. I wouldn’t lie to you. My breakfast is getting cold. I need to eat.”“Are you trying to avoid the question?”I gasped. “I wouldn’t dare.”“Are you sure about what you’re saying?”I grew agitated. I reached for the tray an

Chapter: 18.☆☆SUMMER’S POV☆☆I shoved Hayden off me with both palms, not violently—just enough to get him off me. Enough to say stop without actually saying it. Enough to say I want you gone while still wanting you to stay.The door creaked. I barely had time to breathe before Jake stepped in. He froze by the door, eyes wide in disbelief. And I swear, the temperature in my room dropped ten degrees. Chills, man! Literal chills.His gaze locked on Hayden like he was a disease. Like he had caught us in something unspeakable. And maybe he had. There were no greetings, no nothing—just a stare so sharp it could slice glass.Hayden, the unbothered menace, straightened his shirt with casual arrogance. Then came the smile. That slow, smug that said, Jake-you-wouldn’t-understand. It made my stomach twist and my brain scream.“Hey, little brother.”Jake’s hands curled into fists. “What are you doing here?”“Helping,” Hayden said simply, brushing imaginary lint off his pants.He had never been here before—no

Chapter: 17.☆☆SUMMER’S POV☆☆My imagination had almost wounded me. How could I have dreamt that Hayden was here, talking and laughing with my dad?Calling him by his first name, Edward. Edward? Ha ha. What an awful dream. He called him Edward. I mean, seriously?What a nightmare.I groaned and dragged myself up, throat dry, head foggy like I’d just walked through a steam room. The light spilling through the window was vague—early morning, maybe late afternoon? I had no clue. I must’ve slept for hours.I was in my bed. My blanket. My room. Oh, the comfort. Everything looked normal—until I saw him. Hayden Dylan, in the corner, lounging like a king.He was sitting on my reading chair, legs crossed, elbow draped casually over the desk. Reading one of my novels.Was I hallucinating? No. No, I wasn’t. Then it hit me: it wasn't a dream. Hayden had really been downstairs, in the living room moments ago, laughing with my dad. I hadn't fallen asleep. Oh dear God—I had fainted.Shoot me now. Shoot me now be

Chapter: 16.☆☆SUMMER'S POV☆☆Jake leaned over, trying to get a better look at my screen. I tilted it away from him so fast, I nearly dropped it.“Who’s Soul Snatcher?” he asked, frowning.Think. Think.“No one,” I said, heart pounding. “Just a stupid group chat. We send memes and random crap. You wouldn’t get it.”He raised an eyebrow. “Hmm.”He didn’t believe me. I could tell. His gaze lingered on my phone like it owed him answers.“How come I’m not in the group chat?”“It’s for girls,” I blurted out. “I should go.”Jake blinked. “Now?”I was already crawling toward the edge of the treehouse. “Yeah. My dad’s expecting me. I told him I’d be home early for breakfast before he leaves for work.”“Didn’t you say he was away in Miami for work?”Crap.“Right. He’s back. Got home this morning. And I need to feed the cat.”Jake stared at me. “You don’t have a cat.”I flashed a shaky smile. “Well, our neighbor’s cat.”“Can I come with—”“NO!” I cut Jake short. “Don’t.”His brow furrowed in abject confusio

Chapter: 15.☆☆SUMMER'S POV☆☆The forest smelled like damp earth and leftover dreams. I hopped off my bike near the clearing and stared up at the old treehouse nestled between two oak branches. Jake’s bike was parked under the tree.He sat on the edge of the tree house, one leg swinging, phone in hand. His hoodie hood was up, but I could still see the flash of concern when he spotted me. His brows furrowed like I’d just limped in covered in blood.I might as well have.This was our secret spot that wasn’t so much of a secret. Jake’s dad built this place for us when we were kids. It was too big then and now, it felt just right.The other kids used to disturb us back then until seventh grade, when they all stopped to. I think it was because of Hayden. He beat up the toughest bully in school and barely sustained a single scratch.When asked how he felt, he said, “Bored! That wasn’t a fight. It was just a warmup.”Everyone was afraid. They knew Jake was Hayden’s big brother, and ever since then, no o
