Bella’s POV

The next morning, June was already up when I stepped into the kitchen, pacing in her new black flats and whispering something under her breath. Her blazer sleeves kept slipping past her wrists, and she didn’t bother fixing them. Her hair was frizzing at the ends from nerves, and her coffee sat untouched on the counter.

“You’re going to chew a hole in the floor,” I said, stifling a yawn as I reached for a mug.

She turned, eyes wide. “Do I look like a secretary? I feel like a toddler playing dress-up.”

I grinned. “A very professional toddler. You’ve got this.”

She laughed—barely—and took a shaky sip of coffee. “I keep thinking they’ll take one look at me and realize I have no idea what I’m doing.”

“That’s what starting anything feels like,” I said, patting her shoulder. “Just smile and pretend you know exactly where you’re going. That’s ninety percent of any job.”

June’s nervous energy buzzed around the apartment, but it was a good kind. The kind that came from a normal day

  • Bound By The Moon: The Alpha’s Regret   Seventy Three

    Malrick’s POVI was halfway through reviewing recon footage when my phone buzzed on the desk beside me. It was an unknown number. Coordinates was attached. A text below it: He was here.I didn’t answer. I didn’t need to. I already knew what it meant.I pushed back from the desk in the temporary tracking room—an abandoned gas station retrofitted for surveillance—and called out, “Kael. Gear up. Bring two men. We’re heading to the border.”Kael appeared in the doorway, already slipping into a jacket. “Another tip?”“Not a tip.” I grabbed my pack and weapons. “It’s a trail.”The drive was quiet. Just the hum of tires and the occasional click of the radio being turned down. When we pulled off the main road onto a path that curved toward the national forest, the signal dropped to nothing. No service. No cameras. Just trees thick with fog and that silence I’d learned to hate.“There,” I said, pointing ahead.The abandoned ranger station came into view slowly—half hidden by overgrowth and sha

  • Bound By The Moon: The Alpha’s Regret   Chapter Seventy One

    Bella’s POV The apartment still buzzed with the remnants of our celebration. Empty cups and plates were scattered around, and the scent of Harper's lavender candles lingered in the air. Liam stood in the center of the living room, holding up a small, intricately carved charm."Look what Harper gave me!" he announced, his eyes shining with excitement.Harper, who was on the couch with a glass of wine, smiled. "It's just a little something for luck."I leaned in to get a better look at the charm. "It's beautiful," I said, noting the detailed engravings. "Where did you find it?"Harper shrugged. "An old shop downtown. Thought it might bring some good vibes to Liam's new managerial role."Liam chuckled, slipping the charm into his pocket. "Well, I can use all the luck I can get."As the evening wore on, we shared stories and laughter, the comfort of our camaraderie filling the room. But I couldn't shake the memory of Harper's eyes when she handed over the charm—a brief flicker of somethi

  • Bound By The Moon: The Alpha’s Regret   Chapter Sixty Nine

    Bella POVThe smell of strong coffee hit me before I even opened my eyes.Harper’s blend—bold, nutty, with just a hint of something sweet—wafted from the kitchen. Somewhere in the apartment, Liam was butchering a pop song, his voice cracked in the hallway like an off-key siren. June was mumbling something about not having anything to wear, and the kettle whistled in the background.This morning, I didn’t wake up reaching for a weapon. Didn’t wake up braced for screaming. Or smoke. Or blood.I stretched slowly, the sheets tangled around my legs. My bones didn’t ache. My wolf didn’t whisper warnings. I just... existed. In the softness of the morning. In the warmth of our apartment."Coffee’s hot, toast is questionable!" Harper called out."I swear if it's burnt again, you're banned from the toaster," I replied, dragging myself upright and walked barefoot across the wooden floor.Liam stood shirtless by the sink, flipping the toast like it was a pancake and grinning like a kid. “Perfectl

  • Bound By The Moon: The Alpha’s Regret   Chapter Sixty Eight

    Sage POV I didn’t move for hours. Could’ve been a trap. Probably was. But the food didn’t rot. It stayed warm. Clean, no flies, no magic stink. Just food.And I was starving. I didn't realise when I rushed to the food and ate it. The meat was rich, real—flavored with something faintly herbal. I devoured it before I could think too hard about the consequences.She came again the next night. Same time. Same place. Same food. No words. No questions. Just her.I watched from higher up in the trees that time, cloaked in shadows. She sat longer. Sang a different song. This one was... sad. My wolf leaned forward in my head, ears perked.She smelled like memory. Like something I should know.It kept happening. Dusk after dusk. She never brought fire, never wore shoes. Her breath fogged in the cold, but she didn’t shiver. The forest began to settle around her. Birds followed. Deer peeked from the edges of the trees. Even the cursed places began to slow their spread.She was changing somethin
