POV: Luna

I can't sleep.

The charm bracelet has stopped glowing, but I can still feel it. That pull. That desperate connection to Miguel.

He's dying.

And I'm sitting here doing nothing.

I slip out of bed as quietly as I can and move to the window. The moon is full tonight, bright enough to cast shadows across the dorm room.

I press my forehead against the cool glass and close my eyes.

What am I supposed to do?

Every instinct screams at me to run. To leave right now. To find Miguel before it's to

  • Luna Eclipse   Princess' Stand

    POV: LunaThe decision crystallized in my mind. I couldn't reach through the portal for Hunter. Not now. Not when doing so might doom everyone else. Not when Cole's bargain was obviously trap disguised as rescue opportunity."We defend," I said. Voice breaking. "We hold the line. We trust that if Hunter's really in there, we'll find another way. A safer way. A way that doesn't require walking into obvious manipulation."Through the portal, Hunter's voice screamed. Rage. Betrayal. Accusation that cut deeper than any physical wound.Real or illusion? Truth or Cole's perfect torture?No way to know. No certainty. Just choice made and consequences beginning.The portal pulsed violently. Rejecting my decision. Punishing my refusal. Energy spiking in ways that suggested Cole's shadow was furious. That refusing bargain meant facing wrath instead of receiving cooperation.Then they attacked.Not through portal. From behind our defensive line. The rival female group that had been harassing the

  • Luna Eclipse   Jealousy Sparks

    POV: LunaWe reached the portal site just as everything went wrong.The otherworld energy had intensified. Reality was barely holding. The barrier between worlds looked like fabric stretched too thin, moments from tearing completely.Liam stood at defensive perimeter. Blood seeping through fresh bandages. Injuries from earlier battle reopened. He was barely standing but refusing to sit. Refusing to rest. Refusing to let weakness prevent him from protecting me.Through the mate bond, I felt his exhaustion. His pain. His absolute determination to keep fighting despite body screaming to stop. Despite every rational instinct demanding retreat. Despite love making him suicidal in ways that terrified me."Liam, you need to rest," I said. Reaching for him through the bond. "You're hurt. You're bleeding. You're going to collapse if you don't—""I'm fine," he lied. Voice tight with pain. "Just need to stay between you and portal. Need to keep you safe. Need to prove I'm still useful despite in

  • Luna Eclipse   Forbidden Library Research

    POV: LunaThe library was supposed to be locked after hours. Restricted archives were supposed to be completely inaccessible to students. Forbidden sections were supposed to remain forbidden for very good reasons.Nova picked the lock in under thirty seconds."Where did you learn to do that?" Aria whispered, impressed despite circumstances."Summer job. Locksmith's assistant. Turns out being naturally sneaky translates well to legitimate security work. Also translates well to illegitimate breaking and entering when necessary."We slipped inside. The library was dark. Empty. Perfect for midnight research session that would probably get us expelled if caught but felt absolutely necessary given everything happening.Sienna performed silencing spells. Creating magical bubble around our section. Preventing sound from escaping. Ensuring nobody would hear us even if they passed directly outside our research area."How long will that hold?" I asked."Hours. Maybe until dawn. Depends on whethe

  • Luna Eclipse   Portal Threat

    POV: LunaThe magical readings were catastrophic. Every sensor screaming. Every ward straining. Every protective barrier buckling under pressure that shouldn't be possible with artifact fragment so small.But it wasn't small anymore. The stolen fragment had merged with others. Had created network. Had amplified itself through connection until single piece became coordinated system powerful enough to tear reality apart.I stood in the war room with everyone who mattered. Liam recovering but functional. Caleb present but distant, aware he'd damaged trust that would take time to repair. The princess and Selene maintaining wards. My pack analyzing magical data. Darius observing with intensity that made my Eclipse mark pulse uncomfortably."Portal is opening in the eastern forest," Sienna reported. Reading magical instruments with practiced expertise. "Exactly where the rogue escaped. Exactly where artifact fragment was taken. Energy signature matches otherworld patterns from last year but

  • Luna Eclipse   Caleb's Mission

    POV: CalebThe forest was darker than I remembered. Colder. More hostile. Like the trees themselves recognized me as Miguel and resented that I'd returned when death should have been permanent.I pushed through undergrowth. Following memories that weren't entirely mine. Following path Miguel had taken two years ago. Following investigation that had gotten him killed before he could complete it.Through the mate bond with Luna, I felt her panic. Her terror. Her absolute fury that I'd left without explanation. Without permission. Without giving her chance to stop me or join me or make this decision together.I'd blocked the bond as much as possible. Created barrier preventing her from tracking me. From following me. From abandoning Silverwood's defense to chase after mate who'd chosen mission over safety.But I couldn't block everything. Couldn't eliminate connection completely. Couldn't prevent her from feeling my determination. My certainty. My absolute conviction that this was necess

  • Luna Eclipse   Rogue Wolves Return

    POV: LunaThe rogue wolves hit Silverwood's gates with overwhelming force. Not the disorganized packs we'd fought before. This was military precision. Professional coordination. Enhanced capabilities that suggested extensive training and magical augmentation.I shifted to partial wolf form mid-run. Eclipse power flowing. Ready to purify corruption. Ready to destroy dark magic enhancements. Ready to reduce overwhelming threat to manageable opposition through strategic application of divine power.Liam ran beside me. Full Alpha form. His presence commanding. His authority creating order from chaos. His protective instincts creating wall that nothing would penetrate while he stood.My pack formed defensive unit around me. Nova and Aria on physical offense. Sienna and Lyric providing magical support. Everyone positioned exactly where years of fighting together had taught us we functioned best.The princess and Selene joined from different direction. Both in hybrid forms. Both radiating po
