POV: Delph

Morning arrived wrapped in silver mist.

The training fields behind Bloodstone Fortress lay hushed beneath the pale breath of dawn, the grass jeweled with dew that caught the first hints of sunlight. Wooden practice posts stood in neat rows, dark with dampness, and the stone walls surrounding the yard loomed like silent sentinels against the waking sky.

Delph stood at the center of the field, boots planted firmly in the wet earth.

In front of him, the twins faced him with solemn expre

  • His Rejected Mate's Secret    CHAPTER 58 – Under Two Moons

    POV: AfnanNight returned to Bloodstone clothed in wonder.The fortress rose from the mountains like a sleeping giant, its black stone walls silvered by moonlight, its towers sharp against the vast heavens. Yet tonight the sky was unlike anything the pack had seen in generations.Two moons hung above Bloodstone.One shone in its familiar silver brilliance, cool and serene, pouring pale light across the courtyard stones and the surrounding forest.The other glowed red.Not fiery, not violent, but deep and ancient, a crimson orb suspended beside its silver twin like a wound in the heavens.Afnan stood at the top of the courtyard steps and looked upward, the cold night air brushing against her face.Around her, the entire pack had gathered.Warriors.Healers.Children clinging to their mothers’ robes.Elders leaning on carved staffs of mountain ash.Even those who had once doubted the old prophecies now stood in silent awe beneath the twin moons.Whispers moved through the crowd.“It’s a

    POV: DelphMorning arrived wrapped in silver mist.The training fields behind Bloodstone Fortress lay hushed beneath the pale breath of dawn, the grass jeweled with dew that caught the first hints of sunlight. Wooden practice posts stood in neat rows, dark with dampness, and the stone walls surrounding the yard loomed like silent sentinels against the waking sky.Delph stood at the center of the field, boots planted firmly in the wet earth.In front of him, the twins faced him with solemn expressions far too serious for children their age.Their small chests rose and fell quickly, more from excitement than effort. Barely awake an hour, and yet their eyes glimmered with the same silver light he had seen in Afnan’s the night before.Power.Ancient.Unpredictable.He softened his expression.“Again,” he said gently.The twins nodded in unison.They were so alike it still startled him sometimes, same dark curls kissed by morning light, same bright eyes, same stubborn set to their little m

  • His Rejected Mate's Secret    CHAPTER 56 – The Twins’ Dream

    POV: AfnanNight had draped the fortress in silver silence.Beyond the tall arched windows, the storm that had battered the halls earlier had passed, leaving the sky washed clean and luminous beneath a full, radiant moon. Pale light spilled through the curtains of the twins’ chamber, pooling across the stone floor in soft sheets of silver.Afnan stood at the doorway, one hand resting lightly against the carved wooden frame.She had come only to check on them.A habit she had never quite abandoned.The chamber was warm, scented faintly with lavender oil and the clean sweetness of linen dried in the mountain air. Two small beds stood side by side near the eastern wall, draped in pale blue canopies embroidered with crescent moons.Her twins slept there.Perfectly still.Too still.Then she heard it.A whisper.Soft.Breathy.A melody.Her heart paused.The twins were murmuring in their sleep.Not random words.Not restless murmurs.A song.Their voices rose together in eerie harmony, so

  • His Rejected Mate's Secret    CHAPTER 55 – Echoes of the Gate

    POV: AfnanNight came swift and strange. Two moons hovered above Bloodstone, one silver, one blood-red. Their light painted the courtyard in twin shadows.The entire pack gathered in silence. Wolves shifted in reverence, their fur gleaming under the celestial glow.Afnan stood before them, hands raised, her voice calm and strong.“Peace is not stillness,” she said. “It’s harmony in motion. The Moon teaches us to move, to change, to listen.”They began the blessing ritual, voices weaving together into a low chant. The energy rippled through the air, ancient and familiar.But then, amid the harmony, Afnan heard something else.A whisper that didn’t belong.Find the mirror before it finds you.Her heart jolted. She looked up, the red moon seemed to pulse, like an eye slowly opening.When the chant ended, she turned to Delph. “We need to go east,” she said quietly. “To the mountains. If there’s another Gate, we can’t wait for it to awaken.”Delph didn’t hesitate. “Then we go together.”Th

  • His Rejected Mate's Secret    CHAPTER 54 – The Twins’ Dream

    POV: AfnanMoonlight spilled like water across the floorboards. The twins slept soundly, their breaths perfectly in sync, their tiny hands clasped together.Afnan smiled from the doorway, until she heard it.They were murmuring in unison, voices soft as the wind through trees. A lullaby. One she had never sung to them.Her heart tightened.She stepped closer, brushing a strand of hair from her daughter’s face, and the moment her fingers touched their joined hands, she fell.The room dissolved into silver light.Afnan stood barefoot in a vast forest. The trees shimmered with runes, their bark glowing faintly. Overhead, two moons hung side by side, one white and pure, the other a deep, bleeding red.“Mother of Balance,” whispered a dozen voices.Two glowing wolves bounded through the trees, their eyes bright with starlight. The children followed them, laughing, their feet leaving trails of silver dust.Afnan tried to call out, but her voice vanished into the wind.Then the red moon bega

    POV: Shared (Afnan and Delph)The first light of dawn stretched across the valley, washing the fortress in soft gold. Afnan stood on the balcony wrapped in Delph’s cloak, her hair catching the sunrise. Below, the rebuilt towers shimmered with dew.Delph joined her, his hand brushing her shoulder. “It’s quiet,” he said. “Almost strange.”Afnan smiled faintly. “Strange is good. We’ve had enough chaos for a lifetime.”They stood together in silence for a while, watching the pack move below, wolves rebuilding walls, laughter echoing where screams once filled the air.“What comes next?” she asked softly.“Rebuilding,” he said. “Schools. Training. Maybe a world that doesn’t need warriors like us.”He exhaled, a small smile tugging at his lips. “I feel lighter. As if the Moon finally forgave me.”Afnan lifted her arm, the scar glowing gently in response. “It feels quiet here too,” she murmured. “For the first time since the Gate opened.”Before he could answer, Corin appeared at the edge of
