Nyra

The first rays of sunlight slipped softly through the tall, arched windows, painting golden patches on the white stone walls of the palace, on the silken curtains, and on the bed where I rested. The blankets wrapped me in warmth, and as I slowly drifted awake, I felt something I was not used to: I was not alone. My body was surrounded by a safe heat, and even through the cover I sensed Aedan’s presence. He was beside me, so close that my heart skipped a beat. Tilting my head, I looked at him: he sat with his back against the pillows, as though he had not slept fully all night, only half-dozing to keep watch over me. His eyes were half-closed, but the moment I stirred, they opened at once, and his golden gaze locked on mine.

My heart jolted. I knew he had stayed on purpose. This was not chance, not whim. He had kept watch over me. The thought was terrifying and beautiful all at once, and I didn’t know what to do with the storm of feelings inside me. I looked at him with gratitude,

  • Chronicles Of Moonblood 1. The Wounded Heart   Chapter Two

    NyraMorning’s peace draped over us like a thin veil, soft as dawn-mist clinging to the forest branches. The steam from our bath had long since faded, but its scent lingered—lavender and warmed water. Wrapped in a light robe, I rested in Aedan’s arms; we had returned to bed after the long night and my sickness that morning. Silence wrapped us, not empty but full—the silence of trust, of intimacy, of simply existing together.The morning seemed to hold still.At least, until we heard it.Knock-knock-knock. A pause. Knock-knock.The sound was almost ceremonial in the quiet, yet its rhythm was unmistakable. Aedan gave a low, amused growl.“Cassian,” he said dryly.I smiled, eyes closed, cheek against his chest.“So that was exactly how much time we had.”His hand traced down my back. “Three minutes of happiness. The daily ration the kingdom spares us.”From beyond the thick door, a calm yet firm voice carried through:“I hope you’re not asking for delay in the name of the children. At le

    NyraA hajnal még csak árnyalat az égen – halvány, kékes derengés a fekete és a szürke határán. Az ablakon beszűrődő fény finoman rajzolja ki a fagerendák kontúrját, és ezüst szalagként simul végig a sötét, vastag függönyök redőin. A falak csöndben tartják magukban az éjszaka titkait, és az egész világ olyan mélyen hallgat, mintha még nem döntötte volna el, készen áll-e felébredni.Kinyitom a szemem.Pár pillanatig nem fókuszálok, csak a mennyezet repedéseit követem nesztelenül, gondolatok és érzelmek kusza rétegein át. A bőröm nyirkos, alattam még ott vibrál az álom emléke – mintha a sötétség is belém ivódott volna, míg aludtam.Ködben jártam. Árnyak között. Egyedül. A fájdalom nem volt fizikai, inkább valami ősi, belső rettegés, ami nem oszlott szét azzal, hogy felriadtam. Még most is ott lappang a bőröm alatt, az izmaim mélyén, a lelkemben. Nem tudom pontosan, mit láttam, vagy mi nézett vissza rám a ködből. Csak azt, hogy figyeltek. És amit láttak… az nemcsak én voltam, hanem ők is

  • Chronicles Of Moonblood 1. The Wounded Heart   Book Part 2. Prologue

    NyraCold. Bone-deep, merciless cold.The ground beneath my feet was wet, sticky—each step felt as if something living tried to drag me back down. Fog devoured the world around me; the trees leaned close, their trunks breathing, watching. The air was heavy, cloying with the sweet stench of rot that clogged my lungs. I didn’t know how I had come here. Only that I had to move. Forward. Something—or someone—was waiting for me.The silence was so absolute that even the sound of my heartbeat felt deafening.Then I heard it. A child’s voice. At first I thought it laughter, but quickly I realized: crying. Soft, muffled, the whimper of an infant far, far away. My stomach knotted. That sound… familiar, and yet strange. Too fragile. Too real.I followed it. The fog trembled, clung to me, reluctant to release me. With every step, the ground squelched—mud or blood, I couldn’t tell. The trees grew closer, their bark etched with strange markings. Not markings—faces.I stopped.Not faces—my face. Sh

  • Chronicles Of Moonblood 1. The Wounded Heart   Chapter Fifty

    Rowan’s point of viewThe cold stone beneath me had long since numbed my knees, but I did not move. I dared not. Darkness cloaked everything, and I knew: if I looked up, I would be unmade. And yet I felt him—the one who sat upon the throne. His presence pressed on my chest like a weight, each breath a labor of pain. I could see nothing, but I knew with absolute certainty that I was being watched.When he finally spoke, the sound did not reach me through my ears. It split me open from within, a voice striking straight through my skull.“Speak.”My tongue was dry, my throat raw, but I forced the words out.“The girl… she has been accepted. The lycans call her Luna. Aedan has marked her. And… she is with child.”The silence that followed was not empty. It was alive, a low rumble of shadows stirring around me. Something vast shifted, something ancient, something before which I was no more than dust.And then came the word that froze my blood.“Two.”My chest constricted. He knew. He alway

  • Chronicles Of Moonblood 1. The Wounded Heart   Chapter Fourty Nine

    AedanThe Moon had run through several cycles since the medallion came into Nyra’s hands, and yet instead of answers, only more questions were born. The Book of Aetherwyn remained stubbornly blank, silent even to healers and chroniclers, as though the past itself had locked its doors. The secrets did not speak.But I saw something else changing—not the book, not the magic, but Nyra herself. Small signs, the kind others might have missed: in the mornings she woke more weary, her appetite restless, sometimes rejecting her favorite foods, sometimes craving things she had never touched before. I didn’t ask, didn’t press. I simply watched. Our bond always told me when something was out of balance.One dawn, the tether pulsing in my chest woke me sharply. The bed was cool without her; the blankets shoved aside. And then I heard it: soft retching, muffled, from the direction of the bath. My body recognized the sound instantly—instinct, not fear. I leapt up, barefoot, and hurried toward her.

  • Chronicles Of Moonblood 1. The Wounded Heart   Chapter Fourty Eight

    he fire crackled in a slow, deep rhythm, as though each flame had become the pulsing heart of the room. Red-gold light washed over the walls, while shadows danced along Nyra’s figure as she stood before the couch, her back to me. The medallion still rested between her fingers, but I could see: it was no longer the past that held her thoughts. Her body shivered as though every part of her was awakening to the call of the present.And I could only watch. Spellbound. In the glow of the fire she seemed almost unearthly—her hair gleamed silver, her shoulders traced with the flicker of flames. Every instinct in me roared to go to her, but I didn’t rush. There was no need. I moved slowly, silently, like a hunter who revered the prey he would never harm. When I finally stopped behind her, close enough for my breath to graze the nape of her neck, I murmured, voice rough with the weight of desire coiled inside me:‘Do you know that when I look at you… I don’t see your past. Only you.’Nyra’s ey
