Chapter Fifty-One — Breach

Nova's POV

I dropped to my knees beside my mother the instant Grigor vanished through the door, my hands working frantically at the chains binding her wrists, my mind racing through every lock mechanism I'd ever studied in a lab full of things designed to keep dangerous compounds contained rather than people.

"There's a release mechanism," Elena said, her voice tight with urgency, "at the base, behind the pallet — they never bothered hiding it well, they never expecte

  • MOONLIGHT REBORN   On opposite side of the wall

    Chapter Fifty-Two — On Opposite Sides of the WallNova's POVI found my way back to the section where I'd left my mother by scent alone, my wolf's senses cutting through the chaos of dust and blood and unfamiliar stone with an instinctive precision I hadn't fully trusted until this exact moment mattered enough to test it.The fighting had shifted since I'd left — no longer contained to the breach point, but spreading through the stronghold's upper levels as Grigor's remaining defenders regrouped, and I felt a fresh spike of alarm the moment I saw Elena, pressed back against the wall of the chamber where I'd left her, three of Silver Moon's contributed warriors forming a loose perimeter around her that should have been protection.It took me only a heartbeat to understand it wasn't.Garret stood at the edge of that perimeter, and as I watched, he raised his weapon — not toward the Blood Fang defenders pressing in from the corridor, but toward one of our own allied warriors, a young man

    Chapter Fifty-One — BreachNova's POVI dropped to my knees beside my mother the instant Grigor vanished through the door, my hands working frantically at the chains binding her wrists, my mind racing through every lock mechanism I'd ever studied in a lab full of things designed to keep dangerous compounds contained rather than people."There's a release mechanism," Elena said, her voice tight with urgency, "at the base, behind the pallet — they never bothered hiding it well, they never expected anyone to actually reach me here."I found it exactly where she said, a simple manual release built for guard convenience rather than security, and the chains fell away with a grinding clatter that felt, after twenty years of imprisonment, almost obscenely anticlimactic."Can you run," I asked, already pulling her upright, feeling how light she was, how thin the years had made her."I can run," she said, and something fierce ignited behind her exhausted eyes. "I have wanted to run for twenty y

  • MOONLIGHT REBORN   Elena

    Chapter Fifty — ElenaNova's POVI stood, deliberately, placing myself between Grigor and my mother's chained form, and studied the man who had haunted this entire war before I'd ever known his name.He wasn't what I'd braced myself for. I'd built, over three months, an image assembled from crests carved in blood and letters written in elegant, unhurried hands — something monstrous, something that would look, at least, like the horror he'd caused. Instead, the man standing in that doorway was unremarkable in exactly the way that frightened me more than any obvious cruelty could have. Silver at the temples, dressed simply, his expression carrying an almost courteous attentiveness, the specific calm of someone entirely secure in his own patience."You're smaller in person than I expected," I said, "for someone who's spent twenty years being so large in my imagination."Something like genuine amusement moved across his face. "I find that's often the case. Monsters tend to disappoint, met

    Chapter Forty-Nine — ExpectedNova's POV"I want to see her first," I said, not moving toward the gate. "Before I go anywhere with you. Proof of life, immediate, or this ends here."Corvin's smile didn't waver, but something in his eyes sharpened slightly, recalculating. "You're not in a position to set terms, Alpha Nova.""I walked here alone, exactly as instructed," I said. "I've already given you everything Grigor demanded of me. The least this stronghold can offer in return is confirmation that the woman I came for is still breathing before I take one more step toward whatever you're actually planning."He studied me for a long moment, and I held his gaze without flinching, letting him see exactly how little of my fear I intended to hand him freely."Fair enough," he said finally, and something in his tone shifted into a grudging, almost amused respect. "Come. I'll take you to her myself."He led me through the gate, and I forced myself to catalogue everything as we moved, the sam

  • MOONLIGHT REBORN   The latter she left

    Chapter Forty-Eight — The Letter She LeftDominic's POVI woke before dawn from a sleep that had never actually taken hold properly, some instinct pulling me upright before my conscious mind understood why, and the first thing I registered was the cold, empty space beside me where Nova should have been.The second thing I registered was the letter on her pillow.I knew, reading the first line, exactly what I was holding, and I knew, with a certainty that turned my blood to ice, exactly what it meant that she'd left it instead of waking me.If this reaches you and I haven't returned—I don't remember standing. I don't remember crossing the room, or throwing open the door, or the sound my own voice made shouting for Reid down a corridor still dark with the last hour before dawn. I remember only the letter clutched in my fist, and the specific, hollowing terror of understanding that the woman I loved had walked, alone and unarmed by anything but her own wit, directly toward the one place

  • MOONLIGHT REBORN   Alone

    Chapter Forty-Seven — AloneNova's POVThe war room erupted the moment Talia finished delivering the message, half the assembled Alphas talking over each other at once, and I stood at the center of it feeling the full, impossible weight of what Grigor had just demanded settle over me."Absolutely not," Dominic said, and his voice cut through the noise with a finality that silenced the room instantly. "You are not walking into that stronghold alone.""I don't see another option," I said. "If I bring anyone with me, he kills her before we're even in sight of the gate. You heard Talia exactly the same way I did.""He's manipulating you," Reid said, though I could hear the strain in his own voice, the same fear I felt echoed back at me. "This is exactly the kind of leverage he described in his letter. He knows you'll consider going alone because the alternative is unthinkable to you. That doesn't mean going alone is actually safe, or actually saves her. It might simply be the fastest way
