DISCOVERING I'M A HYBRID LUNA CHAPTER NINETEEN
Maya’s PovMy eyes flicked from Luna Anya to Louis, then to the quiet elders who sat with their mouths pressed shut, avoiding my gaze. My heart was racing. I was still standing near the corner of the room, but everything inside me felt too loud to bear.“What just happened?” I asked, voice sharp, hoping someone would say something, anything.Nothing.No response. Not even a flinch.The silence rang louder than any answer. I opened my mouth to press again, but Louis stepped in before I could. His touch was light on my arm, but the way he looked at me, it was the kind of look that told me to tread carefully.“Calm down,” he said quietly. Like I was about to combust.Calm down?Luna Anya still hadn’t moved. She sat back in her seat, arms crossed lightly as she exhaled, slow and long, like the weight of the room pressed fully onto her shoulders. Then finally, she straightened and looked at the elders.“You all heard what Lucas said,” she began, voice calm but cold. “He didn’t just ask for
DISCOVERING I'M A HYBRID LUNA CHAPTER EIGHTEEN
Louis's Pov“Here?” I echoed, my voice cracking louder than I meant. I pulled it back with a breath, lowering it. “Did you agree to that?”Luna didn’t answer right away. Just sipped her tea like the question hadn’t sunk in. Or maybe she was stalling. Either way, that wasn’t a yes, or a no.My stomach twisted. The idea of Lucas coming here, on Amber soil, walking into our house with that smile… that pride… it didn’t sit right. It reeked of something worse than politics. It reeked of bait.“How’s she doing?” Luna asked instead.I caught the shift in her eyes, soft, but probing. She’d already been to see Maya, I was sure of it. Still, I answered.“She came around,” I said. “Could finally speak a little. Still weak. Still recovering. But she’s fighting.” I watched Luna carefully.“Good,” she murmured, voice flat. And that was it. Just one word, then silence.She sat back like the weight of the world pressed on her spine. I wanted to ask more, like why she hadn’t told me sooner, why Lucas
DISCOVERING I'M A HYBRID LUNA CHAPTER SEVENTEEN
Louis’s PovI rubbed a hand over the back of my neck, trying to center myself. Pierce moved a few steps ahead, still waiting for a response from me.And I didn’t know what exactly to say so I decided to remain quiet.“Is there really nothing more to it?” he asked finally, not turning to me.I hesitated.“We were just out there. I thought it would help her feel less caged.” I kept my tone even. “She was... happy.”Pierce finally turned to look at me. “And then?”I didn’t answer. Couldn’t, really.Because I wasn’t sure what had happened.“I see,” he murmured. Not accusing. Just... resigned.And maybe that was worse.We stood there a moment longer before he sighed and started walking away, muttering something about going back to doing what he was doing.I stayed back, pacing in the gravel thoughtlessly. ***It’s been two days since then.Maya had been asleep for two days.Two long, dragging days.Pierce checked in twice a day, eyes shadowed, lips tight. He started dropping hints, Maya’s
DISCOVERING I'M A HYBRID LUNA CHAPTER SIXTEEN
Louis’s PovI stepped inside without knocking. She’d summoned me, after all.The door clicked shut behind me, the sound unnervingly loud in the silence. She didn’t greet me. Didn’t even look up. She was brewing tea, her hands methodical, scoop, pour, steep. Like I wasn’t there.I didn’t speak either. I knew better.The only sounds were the whisper of boiling water and the soft clink of ceramic. The room was dim, lit only by the fading daylight pressing through the windows and the flicker of a low-burning lamp in the corner. I stood there, spine straight, hands curled into loose fists behind my back, watching the slow rhythm of her movements as she made tea.Then, without turning, she spoke.“What have you been up to, Louis?”The question was calm. Deceptively so.Still, it hit me like a slap.My mouth opened. “What?”She didn’t answer, just kept stirring the tea in that little porcelain cup like she was asking me about the weather. I tried again, slower and more composed this time. “I
DISCOVERING I'M A HYBRID LUNA CHAPTER FIFTEEN
Maya's PovThe walk back was quieter. Louis moved ahead like he was trying to shake something off. I didn’t bother asking what, whatever it was, he clearly didn’t want to talk about it. So I let the silence sit between us.Instead, I paid attention. Really paid attention. To the trees that leaned in over the trail, the way the sun caught in the leaves, the uneven dips in the dirt path.I guess part of me hoped I’d find something, a scratch in the bark, a sign someone had been here recently. A piece of the past that hadn’t buried itself.But there was nothing. Just trees. Wind. Our footsteps.Eventually, I gave up looking and let it go.By the time we reached the car, the sun had sunk behind the treetops. Gold and pink bled through the branches like the forest was on fire again. Only this time, the burn was soft.The drive back felt faster. Maybe because the roads were familiar now. Or maybe because the silence between us didn’t ask for anything.I was the first to break it. “I’m starv

Maya’s Pov Still, he said nothing. And I for one wasn't going to rest until he said what he'd intended to say. I hated suspense.And I wasn’t sure I had an idea of what he'd wanted to say.I arched a brow. “About you, then.”He gave a tight smile. “Nice try.”I stepped around him so he couldn’t avoid my eyes. “Let me guess.”“Maya… Hmmm”“You like me?”He didn’t move.“You want to kiss me?”He stared at the water.“You’re secretly married?”That one earned a low chuckle, but he shook his head. “Stop.”“Then tell me.”“I can’t.”“Because?”He opened his mouth, then closed it. His jaw clenched. Like his whole body was at war with itself.I didn’t push again. Unsure if i really wanted to know what he'd meant to say.I just stood there, letting the wind tangle my hair, waiting for him to come back from wherever his mind had gone.Finally, he spoke. Not a confession. Not even close.“I brought you here because it’s quiet,” he said. “Because it’s the only place where I don’t feel like I ha
