She didn’t mean to come back here.

The forest was different tonight—like it knew. The trees leaned in closer. The air was thicker, holding its breath. Every step Ava took echoed too loud, like she was trespassing in a place that had been waiting for her.

And still… she walked.

The old house rose out of the mist like a memory she hadn’t made yet. Broken stone. Splintered wood. Ivy like veins crawling up its bones. It should’ve been empty.

But something clung to the ruins—something alive.

  • Blood and moonlight    Authors note

    Hello, my amazing readers! ❤️ First, I want to sincerely apologize for keeping you waiting. I know it’s been a while since the last update of Blood and Moonlight, and I’m truly sorry for the delay. Life demanded my attention for a bit, but not a single day passed without me thinking about this story and all of you who have stayed with me on this journey. Your patience, love, comments, and support mean the world to me. Every vote, every message, and every bit of encouragement has reminded me why I started writing this story in the first place. The wait is over, and I’m back! The next chapters hold even bigger surprises, deeper emotions, and twists I can’t wait for you to experience. Thank you for believing in me and for loving Ava, Achi, Aya, Darius, Marcus, and everyone else who has become part of this world. I hope you’ll continue this journey with me until the very last page. With all my love and gratitude, -Aurora

  • Blood and moonlight    Chapter Thirty-Seven: Let Them Be, Mr. Saint

    The garden was quiet — dew still clung to the leaves, and the morning breeze carried the scent of wild mint and earth.Marcus stood near the stone bench, arms crossed, eyes scanning the trees like he was expecting divine judgment to descend at any moment.Behind him, the soft rustle of robes broke the silence.The seer stepped into view, holding her cup of now-cold tea.She didn’t say anything at first. Just stood beside him, watching the wind stir the grass.Then—“Let them be, Mr. Saint.”Marcus side-eyed her.“Saint?” he scoffed. “I’m the one who didn’t rock the entire house like an earthquake.”The seer sipped her tea and raised a brow.“And yet, here you are. Angry. Sleep-deprived. Dramatic.”“That robe is crooked, by the way.”He tugged at it automatically, muttering, “You should’ve put me in the barn.”“I should’ve put you in the middle of a volcano,” she replied calmly. “Maybe then you’d stop acting like you’re being punished.”Marcus exhaled loudly.“They moaned through both

  • Blood and moonlight    Chapter Thirty-Six: Morning Heat, Cold Tea

    The sun crept through the mountain fog, pouring soft light into the seer’s home like melted gold.Birds chirped.The house… groaned.Ava stirred first.She was warm — too warm — but she didn’t want to move. Achi’s arm was draped across her waist, his breath steady against her back, his body curved protectively behind hers.Her legs were still tingling.She smiled. Just a little.Last night still buzzed in her bones — like a soft echo. Achi hadn’t spoken much after. He’d simply held her tighter… and eventually kissed her shoulder until sleep took them both.Ava reached down and pulled the blanket up to her chin, cheeks flushed at the memory.⸻Across the house…Aya woke with her head on Darius’s chest, his heartbeat thudding against her cheek like a drum that had never known rest.His arms were wrapped around her — one hand still casually resting on her bare waist like he didn’t plan to let go anytime soon.She looked up at him.He was awake.Staring at the ceiling like a man who had j

  • Blood and moonlight    Chapter Thirty-Five: The Middle of Everything

    The house was supposed to be asleep.But from where Marcus lay — tucked tightly in the room between Ava’s and Aya’s — it felt like he had been dropped in the middle of a very vivid, very hormonal battlefield.And there was no escape.⸻In Aya and Darius’s room…The air was heavy with heat and control.“You’re not getting what you want tonight,” Darius whispered, his voice thick with power.“But that doesn’t mean I’m letting you off easy.”Aya lay back, her legs shifting beneath the sheets, breath shaky as he hovered above her.His hands — slow, knowing — trailed lower.“I said I’d make you beg, remember?” he said, brushing his lips against her neck.“Yes, Daddy…” she whispered, her voice caught between frustration and desire.And Darius kept his word.His hands didn’t rush. They moved with purpose, drawing whimpers and soft gasps from her lips that echoed across the room and — unfortunately — through the walls.⸻In Ava and Achi’s room…Ava lay still in Achi’s arms, her skin flushed f

  • Blood and moonlight    Chapter Thirty-Four: Through Thin Walls

    The hallway was quiet.For once, there was no blood, no thunder, no screams — just silence, and the scent of rest.Ava walked slowly, her fingers lightly brushing Achi’s.Their shoulders touched as they reached the room the seer had set aside for them — warm with soft candlelight and the hush of peace.Achi opened the door for her.“After everything,” he murmured, “we deserve this.”She stepped inside, glancing at the bed.There were no royal sheets. No grand carvings. Just a thick blanket, a smooth mattress, and space to breathe.Achi followed her in, shutting the door behind them.They undressed quietly, like they didn’t want to disturb the calm between them. Not hurried. Not hesitant.Just real.Ava slid into the bed first, pulling the covers up to her shoulders. Achi climbed in beside her and shifted closer, his body warm against hers.He wrapped an arm around her waist, pulling her into his chest.“You good?” he whispered, his lips brushing her ear.“Mmhm,” she said softly. “This

  • Blood and moonlight    Chapter Thirty-Three: The Quiet Between Storms

    Marcus lay on his side, eyes half-closed, wrapped in blankets that smelled like ancient herbs and old books.His chest still throbbed from the energy backlash earlier — when Aya rose from beneath the mountain.That seal… had taken something from him. Or maybe… it had revealed something he wasn’t ready to face.The seer had told him to rest.But rest?That was a joke in a house full of hybrid drama.⸻From the room next to his, a faint sound made his brows lift.A soft thump.Then a voice.Feminine. Bold. Teasing.“You can talk later… Right now, I want to feel how much you meant it.”Marcus blinked slowly.Oh no…He turned to his side and pressed a pillow over his ear.“Of course it’s her,” he muttered. “It had to be Aya.”He exhaled through his nose, a long, tired breath.If Darius didn’t come out of that room breathless and confused, Marcus would eat his healer’s robes.⸻Then came another sound — softer, from the other room.Laughter.Ava’s.That one made his heart ease. Because it
