last update Last Updated: 2025-04-19 20:09:28

TRISTAN

I found myself tapping my feet and unable to concentrate during the meeting, I was simply counting the seconds and waiting for it all to be over so that I could go back to Selene.

I had forgotten about this part of the Trade, about the meeting that all Alpha's had to attend, and I felt bad for leaving her all by herself, but I knew Selene…my mate was strong, and I would not be surprised to go back to see her holding court with other Luna's surrounding her.

She was not yet my Luna, but that was just a matter of time, I knew it.

The meeting finally ends, but I was stuck making small talk with a few other alphas who were my allies, this trade was held every year for this very reason, and I could not let this opportunity go to waste…especially as it seemed we would have no choice but to fully go to war with Selene's former soon if she succeeds in getting her revenge against Lucas.

Speaking of the devil…I had not seen Lucas anywhere since we got here, which was a good thing for hi

  • Luna's Revenge    Chapter 80: DISBELIEF

    TRISTAN What would I like to know…I took a slow breath. How should I explain that I was looking for a way to break a curse that controlled someone…?“I need information about a curse,” I said carefully. “One that might…merge with a person, it does not really possess the person, it stays inside them but it can take control especially at night and turn the person into something else.”The record keeper’s expression did not change, but the flicker in her gaze told me she might know something about this and then her eyes slowly drifted closed.The record keepers were more than just librarians, they were the hidden eyes of the pack, mysterious, ancient, and terrifyingly well informed generations of women who passed knowledge down like sacred relics, locking truths away where no one else could find them. You could live your whole life in the same pack as them and never see their faces. But they saw everything and if anyone could give me the answers I wanted, it would be them.The woman in

  • Luna's Revenge    Chapter 79: QUESTIONS

    TRISTAN It had been a few days since Selene and I had gotten back together, of waking up with her tangled in my sheets, of holding her close Bf listening to the steady rhythm of her heartbeat against my chest…and it could nevertheless be better.The week I had spent without her had been unbearable like a kind of slow burning torture that clawed at my chest and left me hollow no matter how many responsibilities I buried myself in, and I did not want to go through that ever again.Selene had reassured me that she was sure the Night Ripper would not try to use her anymore, and as much as I trusted her and believed in her, there was a part of me that could not afford to rely on faith alone.What if the night ripper was not gone? What if Selene’s promise had been a hopeful guess, not a certainty? What if next time a monster takes over her, she does not wake up?I clenched my fists, trying to shake off the spike of fear that shot through me. No…I will not lose her again.I was the Alpha, i

  • Luna's Revenge    Chapter 78: PROMISES

    SELENETristan's eyes widened the moment the words left my lips, and I pressed my lips together, but it was too late.With nothing left to say I turned around, intent on leaving him and giving him the space he so obviously wanted, but his fingers wrapped around my wrist, pulling me back until my chest was flush with his and his arms wrapped around me.“Selene…” he buried his nose in my hair as he pulled in a deep breath. “I'm so sorry, Selene. Forgive me.”My hands found their way around Tristan's waist, holding on for dear life, like I was floating and he was the only one anchoring me back to the ground, and in a way he was.I was willing to give up on getting revenge on Lucas if I could spend the rest of my life right here in Tristan's arms, but I needed to do something about Xercer or I would never be free to live my life.“I had no idea somewhere like this existed,” I said softly, my voice barely rising above the gentle rustle of leaves and the babble of the creek below. The sky a

  • Luna's Revenge    Chapter 77:VENT

    SELENEThe sun was already starting to dip in the sky by the time I finally found Tristan.I was heading back to the pack house, ready to call it a day and hole myself up in my room for another week again when a familiar scent hit me, stopping me in my tracks.Tristan…my heart skipped at beat, and I could feel my wolf stir in excitement which I could not blame her because I had missed him too.I followed the trail without hesitation, weaving through the trees behind the pack house until I got to a place that made me gasp out loud.Has this always been here…? I thought to myself as I took a few steps further, staring at the mini creek surrounded by rocks and grasses. How had I not known about this?Movement out of the corner of my eye caught my attention, and there he was…Tristan…this place was quiet, peaceful and secluded, of course he would come here.He was sitting on a flat rock near the edge of the creek, his elbows on his knees and his head bowed like the weight of the world was

  • Luna's Revenge    Chapter 76: SILENCE

    SELENE “You have wallowed enough, Selene.” I muttered to myself as I sat up one morning, pushing the covers off me like it was suffocating me. It had been a week, a whole damn week, and Tristan still had not come to talk to me.I did not care what he was avoiding or what excuses he had, but this silence was not just hurting me. It was tearing us both apart. And if there was even a chance left to fix it, I had to try. We needed to talk, and we needed to do it now.Everytime a knock sounded on the door, I would feel myself getting my hopes up although I knew it was just one of the maids bringing in my food, but I could not stop myself from thinking, maybe it's Tristan this time…maybe he's finally ready to talk….Despite my anger at him, I still had not gotten the courage to go and look for him, but I needed to do it. I could not just sit here waiting for him, curled up on the bed with his pillow tucked under my arm, trying to pretend the

  • Luna's Revenge    Chapter 75: LIES

    TRISTAN I swallowed hard, suddenly exhausted although I was a bit happy for the distraction Tibet brought from my thoughts.“I'm fine Tibet. I'm the alpha, it's my job to protect the pack.”“That’s bullshit,” he snapped. “You do not get to play the martyr and think that protects the rest of us. You are our Alpha, if something happens to you, the pack would fall apart.”“Tibet…” I stared at him for a few seconds, and for the first time in days, I allowed myself to be truly vulnerable.“I’m tired,” I said quietly as I buried my face in my hands. “I know I’m not invincible, I feel it every second of the day. I’m tired, I’m barely sleeping, and I’m fighting like hell just to keep my head above water. Everything is falling apart, from Selene, to the pack…I’m trying, Tibet, but I do not have all the answers.”“Selene?” Tibet asked confused. “Is anything going on with both of you?”“Selene is…” I started, but the res

  • Luna's Revenge    Chapter 74: TIRED

    TRISTAN I stood outside the door to our room, my fists clenched at my sides as I listened to Selene break down into sobs.Selene never cried…not like this. The last time she had was months ago when she talked about Lucas betraying her and killing her baby, so whatever this is has to be as bad as that, if not worse.A huge part of me was itching to open the door again and go to her, to hold her until she calmed down and promise her that we could figure this out together.Each sob that slipped through the door tore at something in me and a primal part of me, my wolf, howled to go in there, to hold her and to make it stop…to fix it, but I did not move, I could not do that, not after last night, not after she kept lying and hiding things from me instead of letting me in.Because as much as I loved her, I could not ignore everything that happened last night, I could not put anything or anyone over the lives of my pack members. As th

  • Luna's Revenge    Chapter 73: BREAKDOWN

    SELENE"I’m still me, Tristan." I said, my voice trembling. "Please believe that.” I bit my lip so hard I tasted blood.Tristan did not answer me, and that silence hurt more than anything he could have said, and when he finally turned back to look at me, his expression was unreadable, a mask of stone."You should rest, you will need your strength."And then without another word, he turned and walked out, the door clicking softly shut behind him.I stayed where I was, my body trembling, my heart breaking a little more with every step he took away from me.What the fuck am I going to do?I buried my face in my hands as the tears poured down my cheeks. My whole body shook as I sobbed really hard from the weight of my emotions, the force of my grief crashing over me like a relentless wave.The way Tristan had looked at me before he left…that hollow, disappointed stare he gave me like I was not the woman he

  • Luna's Revenge    Chapter 72: CHASM

    SELENE The blood drained from my face at Tristan's words. "I…" The words tangled on my tongue and my mouth opened and closed multiple times as I tried to figure out what to say, but nothing was coming. What happened last night? I could not remember anything…but Tristan must have seen something…something that told him I was behind the night ripper he had been after all these while. But what…? I could not say too much and risk giving out information that he did not know and digging an even deeper grave for myself. I felt like I was drowning, struggling to breathe through the sudden weight pressing down on my chest. "Where do I even start?" Tristan muttered after a few seconds of watching me flounder around for what to say, dragging a hand through his hair, making it even messier. "Start what?" I whispered as I stared at him, my heart hammering against my ribs. Goddess…why did my voice sound so small? Tristan exhaled sharply, then pushed himself up from the chair as he started t
