Silas's point of view

After the interrogation with Roderick, I was still caught in a storm of doubt. My mind gnawed at the same thought like a wolf chewing bone: do I dispose of him, or keep him breathing as bait? Roderick was venom, and every second he stayed alive risked poisoning my pack. But killing him too soon could sever the thread to Draco, and Draco was the shadow behind every move we were fumbling to anticipate.

I poured another glass of bourbon, the burn not enough to cauterize the gnawing ache in my chest. I was already on my third bottle. The room reeked of alcohol and ash, the fire in the hearth long dead, leaving only the smell of old smoke clinging to the stone walls.

And Aurelia, damn it! I couldn’t shake her face from my mind. The way she’d looked at me when I turned away from her, when I refused her explanations. I knew she wouldn’t cheat. That wasn’t who she was. But secrecy? Secrets felt like betrayal when I had laid my whole soul bare for her. She had handed me s

  • CHASING HIS LUNA BACK   THE TWISTED STORY

    Aurelia's point of viewMy mind was nowhere near the chamber I stood in. It was out there in the library, wrapped around Silas like a second skin, wondering if he’d managed to gather the pages we needed, if he’d slipped past the guards, if the shadows of this cursed palace hadn’t swallowed him whole. Every laugh from Damien grated my nerves raw, every smirk twisted the knife deeper.I had tolerated enough.I rose from the chair, pushing it back with a deliberate scrape across the polished floor. “I should return,” I said, keeping my voice level. “The pups might wake and be startled not to find me in the room.”Damien’s lips curved in that infuriating way of his, a smile without warmth, amusement laced with cruelty. He leaned back in his chair as though my words were some charming jest. “If you were my chosen mate, Aurelia, you wouldn’t have to concern yourself with waking pups or nursing them. You’d have maids doing that for you while you enjoyed the life you were meant for.”My blood

  • CHASING HIS LUNA BACK   MISSION BOOKS

    Silas's point of viewThe corridor was colder than it should’ve been. Or maybe it was just me while clutching Aurelia’s ring like it was some divine compass. The hidden passage she’d shown me spat me out right beside the royal library’s ancient wooden doors.I glanced over my shoulder one last time. Aurelia was already striding toward the guards, her head tilted in that perfect, commanding way that made men either kneel or choke on their own tongues.“Show me the king’s chamber,” she demanded with honeyed authority.I ground my teeth so hard my jaw cracked. Oh, I hated this plan. Absolutely despised it. My mate, my stubborn, reckless, infuriatingly brilliant mate was going straight into the wolf’s den with Damien. And I was supposed to sit here and… read.“Wonderful,” I muttered under my breath. “She gets a personal audience with the bastard, and I get dust bunnies and history lessons. Truly, the universe is kind.”Fenrir rumbled in the back of my head. Focus, pup. If she’s buying you

  • CHASING HIS LUNA BACK   RISKING MY EVERYTHING

    Aurelia's point of viewSilas’s hand fit mine like it always had. Solid, warm, a tether that kept my breath from scattering. We entered the great dining hall together, the pups clinging shyly to my skirt, their small faces peeking around our ankles. The room smelled of roasted meat and old candles; the great table stretched like a dark river through the center, and at its head sat the man who made my blood run thin: Alpha King Damien.He rose as we entered, slow and theatrical, as if the motion were practiced for effect. His eyes slipped over me with that patient hunger I’d seen before, then paused on Sara with a quick, almost casual intensity that set my teeth on edge.Silas’s jaw tightened beside me. I felt the heat of his warning before his voice cut across the hush. “Good evening, Your Majesty,” he said, clipped and flat.Damien smiled, the kind that never reached his eyes. “Alpha Silas, Luna Aurelia. I apologise for my abrupt departure earlier, ministers demanded my counsel on tr

  • CHASING HIS LUNA BACK   THE ROYAL LIBRARY

    Aurelia's point of viewThe tall iron gates of the royal palace groaned as they opened, and my heartbeat turned erratic. It felt like each clang of the iron echoed inside my chest.“Calm,” Silas murmured under his breath, his hand brushing against mine. His expression was calm on the surface, but his sharp eyes told me he was on high alert. He didn’t have to say more, I could read the tension rolling off him.It had been my idea to bring the pups here, and even now I had to remind myself not to waver.The valet rushed forward and opened the carriage doors for us. I stepped out with as much composure as I could summon, my gown swishing around my ankles.And there he was. Alpha King Damien. Standing on the throne with a background of liar.Our eyes locked instantly. His lips curled into a smirk that was both infuriating and nauseating, as though he’d been waiting for this exact moment. His gaze lingered on me shamelessly, but his hand extended toward Silas, feigning politeness.I tighte

  • CHASING HIS LUNA BACK   VISITING THE ROYAL PALACE

    Silas's point of viewWhen Aurelia showed me the portrait of Damien’s ancestor, the thing that had looked like a curiosity in her hands became something colder, more dangerous. At first I did not understand because it was an old painting with a normal a pendant, nothing more but the way she traced the sigil, the way her voice tightened when she said witch’s mark, made the hair along my arms rise.“A royal who was never royal,” I said, tasting the words like iron. “Omegas who climbed a throne because of a mating. A witch’s pendant binding an Alpha line… if that pendant exists, it changes everything.”She nodded, fierce and weary at once. “It could be the key to Damien’s influence. If the pendant grants him power, or if the bloodline itself is tangled with something… unclean, then what he is doing, what Draco wants, none of it is simply politics anymore.”I wanted proof and a way to rip whatever root he’d sunk into our world from the ground. The journal sat in the satchel like a promise

  • CHASING HIS LUNA BACK   DISCOVERY OF PENDANT

    Aurelia's point of viewLast night’s memory lingered with me like smoke after fire. Silas had been heavily drunk, his steps unsteady, his voice low and slurred, but his lips… his lips kept shaping my name. Over and over, like a spell he could not break free from, he chanted it in his restless sleep.I had turned toward him in the dark, brushing his hair back from his damp forehead, whispering soft words I wasn’t sure he heard. It ached to see him like that, my strong Alpha, my stubborn mate, undone by the storm inside him. My heart broke with every ragged murmur. Maybe I shouldn’t have kept the secret from him. Maybe if I had trusted him enough to share it all at once, none of this rift would exist between us. But the truth was... it had been necessary. At least, that’s what I told myself in those quiet hours when guilt clawed at me.By dawn, my tears had dried into a dull ache behind my eyes. I slipped from the bed before the sun had climbed past the treetops, careful not to disturb
