Alaric carried me into my room, his arms steady despite the blood that stained both of us. My clothes were torn, my skin smeared with dirt and dried blood, and his hair was disheveled, his face etched with exhaustion and worry. But the closeness, his scent, everything helped me to calm my nerves. He set me down gently on my bed, his touch careful, as if I might break. I clung to him, my fingers digging into his shirt, my body trembling with the aftershocks of fear. “Let me get you clean,” my mom said softly, stepping forward with a damp cloth in her hands. But I shook my head, my grip on Alaric tightening. “No… please don’t leave,” I whispered, my voice trembling. The thought of him walking away, even for a moment, sent a fresh wave of panic through me. What if they came back? What if I was taken again? What if they try to... “I’m not leaving you,” Alaric said, his voice steady and firm. He sat on the edge of the bed, pulling me closer as I

His Abandoned Luna 193. The Challenge
|| Lilac's POV || The garden was alive with murmurs as the elders gathered around Ezra, their ancient hands hovering over his newly shifted form. His wolf—magnificent, silver-furred, with eyes like molten gold—stood tall under their scrutiny. The moonlight bathed him in an ethereal glow, casting long shadows across the grass. He looks like Father, I thought, my chest swelling with pride. The head healer, a wizened woman with eyes sharp as daggers, pressed her palm to Ezra’s flank. A pulse of magic rippled through the air, and the crowd held its breath. "His wolf is strong," she declared at last, voice carrying over the silent gathering. "Unusually so for a first shift. The bond between man and beast is seamless—no hesitation, no fracture. A rare thing." Another elder nodded, running his fingers through Ezra’s fur. "No signs of instability. His instincts are sharp, his control remarkable. This is no ordinary wolf." A murmur of approval spread through the
His Abandoned Luna 191. Day of Ceremony
|| Lilac's POV || The morning sun spilled through my bedroom window, golden and deceptive in its warmth. I stood before the floor-length mirror, adjusting the delicate silver embroidery along the neckline of my dress—a deep emerald green, the color of our pack, the color of royalty. My reflection stared back at me, hollow-eyed. You can do this. One step at a time. I exhaled slowly, pressing my palms flat against the cool surface of the vanity. The bruises from last night’s attack had faded under the healers’ care, but the memory hadn’t. The rogues’ snarls. The way Elias had failed to protect me. The way Alaric had. Alaric. Where was he? A knock at the door startled me. "Lilac?" My mother’s voice, soft but firm. "It’s time." I forced a smile before turning. "Coming." I had arrived early to oversee the final arrangements, but I wasn’t alone for long. "Lilac." His voice sent a chill down my spine. Elias strode toward me,
His Abandoned Luna 190. Whisper in Dark
|| Lilac's POV || The room felt too quiet after everyone left. The weight of my confession still hung in the air, pressing against my ribs like a stone. I had told them everything— well most of it, Kael’s betrayal, the hollow absence of Runa—and yet, the relief I expected hadn’t come. Instead, a new kind of fear slithered in, whispering that even now, fate was slipping through my fingers. Alaric’s warmth lingered where his hand had been, his reluctance to leave etched in the way his fingers had tightened around mine before he pulled away. "You should rest up. We can talk later," he had said, his voice low, rough with exhaustion. "Yes, and I will sort out the mate issue. Madeline and Astrid are on it, too," Alexander added, ever the strategist, already calculating the next move. I should have felt better. They believed me. But the way my father stared at me—like he was seeing a ghost, not his daughter—left me raw. Alaric stood slowly, his muscles tense,

His Abandoned Luna 189. The Truth-II
|| Lilac’s POV ||“What are you saying?” my mom asked, her voice shaking. “So you did… all of that because you had a vision?” Dad asked. “I know you might think I’m crazy, but I’m not lying. I swear to the Goddess,” I said, my voice trembling but firm. “This… I don’t know what to say,” Alexander said, his voice filled with disbelief. My dad was silent, his eyes locked on me, his expression a mix of shock and confusion, “most of the time she was right. Ezra would have been banished by now if she didn’t have acted on time.” “Yeah, and the Coco situation… could have been worse if you were engaged already,” mom said. “I trust you,” Alaric said suddenly, his voice low but filled with conviction. “I don’t know how or why, but I believe you.” Tears welled up in my eyes as I continued. “After the vision, Runa was gone. I mean, she was there, but I couldn’t shift or talk to her.” “And that’s why you didn’t fight back during the rogue attack,” my
His Abandoned Luna 187. Rescued
The night was thick with tension, the air heavy with the scent of rain and danger. Alaric moved through the shadows like a predator, his every step deliberate, his senses sharp and unrelenting. The faint trail of the rogue’s scent and the other scents that might came from his partners, faint but unmistakable, led him forward, his wolf, Hunter, growling low in his chest. Alexander followed close behind, his presence a steady, grounding force amidst the storm of Alaric’s emotions. The abandoned warehouse loomed ahead, its broken windows and crumbling walls a stark contrast to the surrounding cityscape. It was a place forgotten by time, a perfect hideout for those who thrived in darkness. Alaric’s jaw tightened as he approached, his eyes scanning the perimeter. The place was guarded, rogues patrolling the area with a casual arrogance that made his blood boil. Marcus and Garry arrived moments later, their presence a welcome reinforcement. They were followed by a group of warri
