BOUND BY THE MOON

SELENE“Goddess!”I shot out of bed in a cold sweat. I looked at my phone and it was just 4:00am. An hour before my alarm was going to ring anyways, there was no use going back to sleep now.This dream has been reoccurring, every night now. It was a wolf a huge one. The fur was pitch black and the darkest green eyes that I had ever seen. It reminded me of the forest. In the dream I just stood, unable to will my limbs to work.It was as though I was pinned down by the intensive stare from the wolf. Like it was calling out to me. I wasn’t scared by any means, but the feeling was intense overwhelming and whenever the wolf made a move as if to come to me I woke up. My heart felt like it was beating a million beats pet second. I placed my hand on my chest to calm down my erratic heart beat before I pass out. I wasn’t worried about waking anyone up since I lived alone. My dad was killed in a rogue attack and then my mum was so grief laden she followed after him soon after, that was two year

RONAN“Have you contacted the seer?”I asked my Beta “Yes Alpha King she is on her way” he replied head bowed. Kairos was my beta and also my best friend. He was loyal to me both as a beta and as a friend. We needed to find out the reason why we hadn’t had a full moon in the past three forth nights.Not just for the capital but for the other packs. None of us could survive much longer if this continued. We all could feel it, our wolves getting weaker and if this continued, our wolves would disappear and then there would really be nothing any of us could do.As Alpha King all the responsibility fell on my shoulders, and if I couldn’t beat this I would have failed not only myself but all the other packs that looked up to me. It still amused me how in the blink of an eye I wen form having no responsibility to shouldering the responsibility of three packs.“The rogue down in the cells, has he spoken yet?” I asked and he shook his head “No Alpha King, it seems like he is scared of somethin

SeleneAnother forth night had passed still with no sign of the full moon.And it was so obvious that it had begun to take a toll on everyone.I had been on bed rest the past week. This is the weakest I had ever felt in my life.The salutary had tripled my dosage of medicine just to ensure that I had some strength in my body. I was worried. I couldn’t feel my wolf.I knew she was there because if she wasn’t then I would be nothing. Every werewolf had their consciousness split into a complete half.And although we couldn’t have direct conversations with our wolf side like fiction books say, we could feel them almost like they were ingrained in our consciousness. Losing your wolf was like losing half of your soul and the gap could never be filled. Only two thing could cause one to lose their wolf, the first was losing the person whom you has been chosen to share a bond with and then give your mark and the second was being away from the full moon for so long.My wolf was slipping further

Selene“I am so angry right now” I said fuming.At the moment, I sat crisscrossed on my bed ranting to Nova. “Like the gall of that insufferable man” I huffed and she raised her hands “whoa, babe, he might be your fated mate or something but he’s still the Alpha King and I’m not about to get executed for treason” she said and I rolled my eyes “whatever”.“So do any of you know what that mark means”she said gesturing to the crescent moon on my wrist. I shrugged “I don’t know but it can’t be good, that much I do know” I replied. I didn’t want a mate and definitely not own that was fated to me. That only happened in fiction, the moon goddess never chose someone permanently. This was weird and I hated weird and of all people, why did it have to be the Alpha King, he was so insufferable, proud and just downright annoying.“He is meant for us”my wolf Nadine said in my head and I know that I should have often used to it by now but it was just really weird to have a full conversation with s

SeleneThe car was already on the move.Awkward silence consumed us all. For some reason Ronan had decided to send his Beta and other of his entourage ahead of us while we both ride together like this was some sort of giddy road trip or something.The goodbyes earlier were terrible a lot of tears was involved.I remember saying goodbye to everyone. I even tried to bargain with Ronan to spend one more day here but according to him, we had already wasted so much time here.“Stay safe there” Nova said.She had been trying to keep up the tough girl act and I guess that the reality of me leaving was just too much that she had to cry.“I look like a pussy”she said trying to stop her tears from flowing and I laughed “I’m never going to forget this. The iconic day I got to see you finally cry. I almost thought you were a robot or something” I joked “shut your fucking mouth” she said.I held both her hands. “Keep me updated ok? Don’t shut me out just because I’m not going to be here in person
