MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 35 - Something to Fight For
The fortress wakes more slowly than usual.For the first time in weeks, there are no shouted commands echoing across the courtyard before sunrise. No clashing steel. No relentless drills.Just… life.I wander through the grounds in silence, letting my feet carry me wherever they choose.The first thing I hear is laughter.A little boy races across the courtyard with a wooden sword nearly as long as his arm, his father chasing after him with exaggerated groans.“You’ve defeated me!” the warrior cries dramatically before collapsing onto the grass.The child squeals with delight and climbs onto his father’s chest, raising the toy sword triumphantly.“I beat the Alpha’s soldier!”“You did,” his father, Mr Thomas agrees with a grin. “Now help the poor man back to his feet before your mother thinks you’ve murdered him.”The little boy giggles as his mother watches from the porch, shaking her head fondly.A warmth settles in my chest.Now I understand why Tyson insisted every warrior go home
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 34 - The Last Peaceful Days
The days leading up to the battle blur into one another until I almost lose track of time.The entire fortress changes.MoonHaven no longer feels like a home. It becomes a weapon.From the moment the sun rises until long after darkness swallows the sky, every warrior trains as though tomorrow depends on it.Because it does.The clang of steel replaces laughter.Commands echo across the training grounds from dawn until midnight. Every hallway is filled with people carrying weapons, armor, supplies, and maps.No one wastes a single second.Neither do I.Tyson refuses to let the warriors become complacent. If anything, he pushes them harder than ever.“Again!”His voice carries across the field, sharp enough to silence even the wind.A warrior crashes onto his back after Tyson disarms him in three swift movements.Before the man can catch his breath, Tyson extends a hand.“Get up.”The warrior grips it. Tyson pulls him upright.“Your enemy won’t wait for you to recover.”The man nods onc
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 33 - Earn Yourself A Dessert
I gently push Tyson toward the bathroom, my hand firm against his chest despite the way his eyes linger on me like he has other ideas.“Shower,” I tell him softly, but there’s no room for argument in my tone.I don’t wait to see if he changes his mind. The moment the door closes behind him, I turn and head back out. The fortress is quiet at this hour, the kitchen dim and still. I don’t bother waking the chef. Instead, I move quietly, gathering what I need, putting something simple together myself.It feels… grounding.After everything, the danger, the tension, the weight of what’s coming, this small act steadies me.By the time I return to the room, the sound of running water has stopped.Tyson is already out of the shower.My steps slow for just a second.He stands there, damp skin catching the low light, tension still carved into every line of his body. Even clean, even freshly showered, he looks like a man carrying too much on his shoulders.His eyes lift to mine the moment I enter
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 32 - The One Person He Obeys
After I tell them everything I know, I don’t stay to watch the weight of it settle on their shoulders.I leave.The war room feels too heavy, too suffocating, so I head back to the kitchen instead, back to something normal, something I can control. The familiar rhythm of chopping, stirring, directing others helps quiet my mind.But they’re still there.Hours later, when I return with food, Tyson and his men haven’t moved. Maps still spread. Voices still low. Eyes still sharp with focus and exhaustion.I understand what I’ve given them the location of an enemy that has remained hidden for years. For the first time, MoonHaven has the chance to strike first instead of waiting to be attacked. But even opportunities like this can wait a few hours. They need food. They need sleep.Something in me tightens.“That’s enough,” I say, my voice cutting through the room before I can soften it. “You need to eat.”Tyson doesn’t even look up at first.Typical.I step closer, my gaze hardening. “That
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 31 - Where Darkness Waits
I stand just outside the war room doors, my fingers curling slightly at my sides as the low murmur of voices seeps through the heavy wood. Tyson and Aiden have been locked in there for days, barely sleeping, barely eating, building strategies from the information I risked my life to bring back.Now, they’re ready for me.I push the door open.The air hits me first, thick, tense, calculated. Maps are spread across the long oak table, marked with symbols, lines, and hurried notes. The faint scent of ink mixes with something darker… magic. It lingers, heavy and warning.Tyson doesn’t look up immediately.He stands at the head of the table, one hand braced against it, the other gripping a charcoal pencil so tightly it snaps in two. His shoulders are rigid, like he’s holding back something dangerous.Aiden notices me first. His sharp gaze flickers toward me, softening just a fraction.“She’s here.”That’s all it takes.Tyson lifts his head.And the moment his eyes lock onto mine, something
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 30 - The Master
Then he took a deep breath, physically forcing himself to calm down. “Explain.”I swallow.“I didn’t break in,” I say quickly. “Not exactly. It was a layered concealment field. It responds to magic. I studied it… countered it… and it accepted me.” It burned though. Like cold iron under my skin. I wasn’t sure I’d make it back out. But I can’t tell Tyson this. He is already angry that I put myself at risk. Guilt twisted inside of me, because i can imagine what he went through when he thought something bad must have happened to me. But I honestly can’t fold my hands and do nothing. MoonHaven is in my home, and as Luna, I refuse to let my people continue to be vulnerable just because we can’t locate our enemies’ camp.The room goes still again.Tyson’s voice drops dangerously. “It accepted you.”I nod once. “Yes.”A long pause, then he steps closer.Slowly. Carefully, like he’s recalibrating everything he thought he knew about me.“You walked into a witch-guarded rogue fortress,” he says
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 4 - A Dangerous Attraction
I think I fainted again I regain consciousness at the same time I feel a hand brush mine, but when I open my eyes, Alpha is standing a little far from me, looking as if he is ready to cut off my neck.He frowns. “You really fainted. You were not pretending. I could taste your fear and confusion.”
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 7 - She Stays?
I realize it was from Tyson. What an impressive growl. But the tension doesn’t break, it lingers. “They’re regrouping,” someone mutters behind us. “Yes,” Tyson replies, his voice calm but deadly certain. “They’re coming back.” A chill runs down my spine. Of course they are. They always come b
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 6 - The Pull
When Tyson touched me, my breath hitches, my heart stutters. And then starts racing again, faster, louder, like it’s trying to break out of my chest.Tyson’s eyes darken.“Your pulse…” he murmurs.“What about it?” I manage.“It reacts to me.”I swallow. “That’s because you’re insane and unpredictab
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 5 - No Escape.
His fingers brush my wrist and everything Stops.It’s like a shock runs through me. Not painful. Just… overwhelming. My breath catches, my body goes still, and for a split second, the world narrows down to that single point of contact.What the hell was that?He pulls back like he’s been burned. Hi
