Alpha’s Moonchild Chapter 100
Deric I saw her. Just a quick blur of dark curls and swaying hips as the hallway door swung slightly ajar, then shut again. But I knew it. The scent that followed hit me like a thunderclap. Mugwort, iron, wolfsbane… and something else, something dark. My heart stuttered in my chest. Verya. I moved before my mind caught up, pushing through the crowd in the corridor, ignoring the murmured greetings and sideways glances. My boots slammed the marble floor with purpose as I followed the path of her scent. I reached the door and burst through, into a dim service hallway that reeked of bleach. And there she was. “Verya!” I grabbed her wrist before she could vanish. She gasped, and the moment our skin touched, I felt it. Her power, a cold, slick undercurrent that slithered under her skin like oil. She was soaked in dark magic. Not just using it, she was marinated in it. My grip tightened. “What the hell are you doing here?” I hissed, dragging her back two steps. Her eyes widened befor
Alpha’s Moonchild Chapter 99
Jaxon The moonlight casted silver over the glass ceiling of the council chamber, but it felt more like a spotlight, like an accusation aimed directly at me. They were all watching, waiting for me to say something. Just like kairo said, the news of Elvira, Callan and Brielle missing leaked and it was exactly 24 hours after. Ronan stood beside me, silent, tensed, tapping his foot continuously. Celina’s arms were folded, her jaw locked tight. Kale looked cranky as hell. The rest of the council raised eyebrows in suspicion. Even Talon was looking at me differently. Like I was no longer Alpha, but something cracked, like I was no longer the Jaxon I used to be. “Where is she?” one councilwoman finally asked, her voice sharp, precise. “The Blood Moon is rising tonight, Alpha Jaxon. Where is your mate?”Blood moon is ritual that rises twice in a year to celebrate a fated bond. A ripple of murmurs followed, as if they hadn’t already whispered it behind closed doors. As if the entire damn

Ronan The rain had returned, heavy and chilly, falling like knives against the windows of the council area. I stood beneath the overhang corridor, the only place where the cameras didn’t reach, checking my watch for the fifth time. She was late. Lila emerged from the shadows with the grace of a predator, heels silent, umbrella forgotten, her coat soaked to the elbows. Her eyes were cool as frost and just as unfeeling. “You picked the most inconvenient corner of the entire estate,” she said, stopping just far enough away to show she wasn’t here to be friendly. “You took a while though,” I said simply. “I was busy with something. I wanted to see how far this will rattle Jaxon.” I held her gaze. “You’re good at pretending this isn’t affecting you.” “Because it isn’t,” she replied flatly. “Not the way it’s affecting you.” “Elvira is gone. Along with Callan. Brielle. Vanished without a trace.” “And you think I had something to do with it?” she asked, her voice calm, almost amused
Alpha’s Moonchild Chapter 97
Jaxon The box sat in the center of my desk. Wrapped in a matte-black paper with a blood-red ribbon that someone took their damn time tying. I stared at it for the longest time. My name wasn’t even on it, but I knew it was meant for me. With steady fingers, I untied the ribbon and lifted the lid. Inside was a single cream envelope, light and embossed. Kailuxe’s insignia glinted in gold foil, two dragons wrapped around a serpent. A gala invitation. My pulse kicked. There was no message, no name, but I didn’t need one. This was his way of saying, Come find me. And I would. … It didn’t take much effort to get through the doors of Kailuxe. They knew who I was. Cameras flashed as soon as my boots hit the marble floor, each step echoing louder than the music drifting through the glass atrium. Walking inside, crystals dangled like icicles from the ceiling, casting blurry rainbows across the polished floors. Waiters moved quickly, offering expensive champagne and slivers of steak on gold
Alpha’s Moonchild Chapter 96
Jaxon I couldn’t breathe. Not in the way a man takes shallow gasps after running. This was worse. Like the oxygen had been sucked out of my body and left me standing in a void of silence and panic. Elvira. Brielle. Callan. All missing. My fingers dug into the edge of the conference table as I leaned over it, jaw locked, trying to make sense of the reports flooding in. “We’ve searched everywhere . No signs of forced entry, no broken windows. Nothing.” Marcus, one of the pack detectives, stood stiffly, avoiding my eyes. “We checked the garage too, Callan’s motorcycle is still gone.” I nodded once, barely. “What about Elvira’s phone?” “We traced the last ping,” he said. “The signal bounced off a network tower outside city limits. Near Kailuxe’s satellite facility.” I looked up at that. “Kailuxe?” My voice was low, dangerous. He nodded slowly. “It’s one of Kairo’s private tech zones. No access unless you’ve got internal clearance.” I clenched my jaw. Kairo. That bastard’s name k

Elvira The market buzzed with energy, laughter here and there, music, and bargaining voices. Bright fabrics fluttered like butterflies from their hanging racks, and the warm scent of roasted chestnuts filled the air, sweet and earthy. Brielle tugged my arm, dragging me between stalls while I struggled to focus. She was talking, fast and excited, like always, but my mind drifted with every object that caught my eye. “Look, look at that necklace!” I pointed, eyes wide. “And that bag, oh! I want it all.” “You always say that,” Brielle chuckled, flipping her braid over one shoulder. “Pick one. Or three. Your man’s rich, remember?” I laughed softly, but the warmth in my chest faltered. Jaxon’s face flashed in my mind, his worried expression, the way he tried to hide it. I hadn’t heard from him since early this morning. Guilt tickled the edge of my thoughts, but I shoved it down. We stopped near a row of accessory stalls. Colorful scarves danced in the wind, and rings glittered in tray
Alpha’s Moonchild Chapter 94
Jaxon Two hours later, we reached the pack gates. As soon as the guards saw our vehicle approaching, the doors creaked open without hesitation. They didn’t question my return, but my gut twisted with a sense that nothing about this trip would be as smooth. Ronan drove past the familiar pathways quickly. The sun barely shined, casting long shadows over the garden trails. Something in me churned, the kind of disturbing discomfort you feel when a storm is coming. I sat back in the leather seat, the weight in my chest pressing down hard. That’s when it hit me, I hadn’t even told Ronan the most critical detail of that earlier call. I turned to him abruptly. “I forgot to mention something,” I said. He raised an eyebrow, eyes flicking between the road and me. “What?” “When I called Callan earlier… he didn’t pick up.” “That’s not exactly shocking. You already said that.” “No,” I said, more firmly this time. “He didn’t pick up… but someone did. Kairo picked.” The car veered slightly b
Alpha’s Moonchild Chapter 93
Jaxon The engine purred beneath us as Ronan drove us out of the city. I had informed him after the call and we drove straight to the countryside. Rain streaked the windshield in silver lines, a perfect mirror of the storm twisting inside my chest. I sat in the passenger seat, staring out at the blurring trees, arms folded, my leg bouncing restlessly. “I can’t believe he actually went back,” I muttered under my breath, more to myself than Ronan. Ronan glanced at me sideways. “Who? Callan?” I nodded. “Yeah. To the countryside. Why the hell would he go back there after everything?” “I didn’t even know he left,” Ronan admitted, his tone tight with frustration. “Celina didn’t mention anything either.” “She did. Today.” I rubbed the back of my neck, where a migraine had started to build. “She said I’ve been too wrapped up in Elvira to notice.” Ronan didn’t respond immediately, and the silence was loud. “Did you know,” I added, “that Kairo has a clothing line?” Ronan’s brow arched.
Alpha’s Moonchild Chapter 92
Jaxon The office walls felt like they were closing in on me. I paced back and forth, my hands buried deep in my hair, my breath shallow with frustration. I couldn’t think. Couldn’t focus. Lucian’s words kept echoing through my head like a curse I couldn’t shake. Kairo. Of all the people. Of all the damn people. I shoved a chair out of my way and sat at my desk, staring blankly at the top drawer. My head throbbed, temples pulsing in sync with my heartbeat. It wasn’t just the betrayal that hurt, it’s the fact that Kairo is just using this as bait for me, and to me, this is where I could pour my creativity into. But my body wasn’t reacting with rage alone; there was something more behind the storm churning inside me. It was a bad headache. I needed to take some meds. My fingers hovered over the drawer before yanking it open. Inside sat the small black box gift Elvira had given me days ago. I remembered how her hands trembled slightly when she handed it to me, how her eyes held a gli
