Lyra’s voice came again, closer this time, edged with a warning I could not yet understand.

We moved as one toward the sound, though none of us truly chose the path.

The library shifted around us. Shelves that had stood for centuries slid aside with a low grinding of stone, revealing a narrow descending corridor that had not existed moments before.

Silver light trailed from my steps alone. Behind me Caelan walked with careful, measured strides, every muscle still locked against the curse that

  • Lunar curse   CHAPTER THIRTY-SIX: The Price Of Choosing.

    Flavia’s POV“When the two choose each other, one kingdom will fall.”I read the words again.They remained carved into the black altar, glowing faintly beneath the silver light.Caelan stood beside me, his hand still wrapped around mine.Neither of us spoke.The silence felt heavier than the warning itself. Finally, Caelan exhaled.“Well.”I glanced at him. “Well?”He looked at the altar. “I was hoping our relationship would become complicated after at least a few peaceful months.”A laugh escaped me before I could stop it. “You're blaming our relationship?”“I've noticed a pattern.”“What pattern?” “Whenever I start enjoying my life, something ancient tries to destroy it.”I smiled. “Maybe you're just unlucky.”His eyes moved to me.“Maybe.” There was something in the way he said it that made my smile fade.He wasn't looking at the altar anymore. He was looking at me.I squeezed his hand.“Don't.”“Don't what?” “Start thinking about sacrificing yourself.”His eyebrows lifted. “I did

  • Lunar curse   CHAPTERTHIRTY-FIVE:The choice between us

    Flavia’s POV“He has found us.”Caelan smiled. It wasn't his smile.Every part of me went cold.His eyes were completely black, swallowing the gold beneath them. The hand around my wrist tightened until his claws pressed against my skin.“Caelan?”His head tilted. “Run, Flavia.”I didn't.Instead, I stepped closer.“Why aren't you listening?” “Because you asked me to run.”“That was the point.” “And I don't like being ordered around.”For half a second, something flickered across his face.Almost amusement. Then the darkness returned.“Still stubborn.”I stared at him. That sounded like him.“Caelan?”His grip loosened.His eyes flashed gold.Then black again.He stumbled backward and caught the stone wall.“Stay there.”I stayed.His breathing became rough. The claws slowly disappeared from his fingers.When he finally looked at me again, his eyes were gold.“I hate this.”I walked toward him. “You don't have to.” His eyebrows pulled together.“Don't start.”“Start what?” “Trying to ma

  • Lunar curse   CHAPTER THIRTY FOUR: The Queen They Remembered

    Flavia’s POVEvery wolf in the valley bowed.I couldn't move.The sight was too impossible to understand.Hundreds of warriors had lowered themselves to the ground. Some pressed their fists against their chests. Others lowered their heads until their foreheads almost touched the earth.No one spoke.Even the wind seemed to have stopped.I looked at Caelan. He was staring at me with the same disbelief I felt.“Why are they doing this?” I whispered.Caelan didn't answer. The mark on my palm continued glowing.A strange warmth traveled from it, moving slowly up my arm and into my chest.Then something happened.The wolves began to change.One by one, their bodies shifted.Fur disappeared and their bones rearranged. Within seconds, the valley was no longer filled with wolves.It was filled with people. Men and women stood where the beasts had been.Some wore ancient leather armor. Others had simple clothing patched together from old materials. Several carried scars across their faces and b

  • Lunar curse   CHAPTER THIRTY THREE:The memories

    “Now the hunt truly begins” that was the last thing i heard and everywhere was filled with smoke. I was trying to reach to Caelan but couldn't Everywhere became blurry to me and I did not know where I was and I faintedI saw myself in a strange land filled with wolves and they tried to attack me and I felt someone tapped on me immediately I woke up.I noticed I was still in the wolves kingdom and the First Alpha had disappeared beyond the stone ridge.But the silence he left behind felt heavier than his presence.No one moved.The ancient werewolves stood scattered around the valley, their faces turned toward the path where their supposed ancestor had vanished.I could still feel the warmth of his power beneath my skin. It touched something inside me.Something I had spent my entire life trying to understand.My fingers slowly closed into fists.“What did he mean?” No one answered.I turned toward the oldest woman among them.She had been watching me since the First Alpha appeared.

  • Lunar curse   CHAPTER THIRTY-TWO:The First Alpha

    Flavia’s POVSomething beneath the earth breathed.The sound rolled through the cavern like a storm trapped underground.I couldn't move.Caelan stood several feet away, but the person looking at me through his eyes was no longer entirely him.His chest rose slowly and his head tilted, then he smiled.A smile that belonged to someone who had never learned mercy.“So this is the Moon Princess.”My stomach twisted.I stepped toward him.“Caelan.”His eyes narrowed.For a minute, nothing happened.Then his fingers twitched. “Don't come closer.” he said with his real voice but he sounded weak.Buried beneath something much stronger. I took another step.“I know you're in there," I said.His jaw clenched.“Flavia…”The name came out broken. Then the gold swallowed his eyes again.The ancient wolf beside the river growled as the entire clan dropped to their knees.Not toward Caelan but towards the darkness behind him. A crack appeared in the cavern floor.The old woman raised her staff.“Ever

  • Lunar curse   CHAPTER THIRTY-ONE: The Truth Beneath The Curse

    Flavia’s POVThe howls continued long after the cavern fell silent one after another.The sound vibrated through my ribs until I could barely tell whether the trembling beneath my feet came from the wolves outside or from my own body.Caelan stood beside me, staring at the tunnel.His breathing had changed. He was breathing heavily and a short breathe His fingers slowly curled into fists.“Caelan?” He didn't answer.I stepped closer and touched his arm. His muscles were rigid beneath my fingers.“Look at me.” His eyes found mine.For a moment, they were brown. Then gold flickered across them.He pulled away. “Don't.” he said I frowned. “Why?”“Because I don't know how long I can stay by myself.”The words were quiet. That frightened me more than a scream would have.The old woman approached us. “Now you understand why the First Alpha wants him.”I turned sharply. “You said his blood was connected to the Alpha bloodline.”“It is.”“Then tell me everything.”She studied me. “Once I do
