MOONVEIL : The Blood of the Last Curse Chapter 29: Where the Heart Stands
Leon’s POVRael led me into a room behind the café—definitely the owner’s. The chair was soft, the walls were spotless, and everything smelled like expensive coffee. But it was too quiet. Too clean to just be for invoices or planning a seasonal promo.Rael sat behind a sleek, dark wood desk. Everything about it looked sharp and intentional, just like him. I sat across from him, still trying to figure out why I was the one being pulled aside for a serious talk—especially when he should be out there protecting Willow from... whatever the hell is coming.But before I could ask what this was all about, I heard a soft mechanical hum behind him. The bookshelf—which had looked solid as hell—started to tremble. Then, like something out of a spy movie, it slowly rotated to the side. Behind it, a wall split open, glowing faintly.I stood on instinct, but Rael raised a hand casually, motioning for me to stay seated.
MOONVEIL : The Blood of the Last Curse Chapter 28: Three Cups and a Warning
Valencia Café felt warm that afternoon. The scent of coffee and caramel wrapped around me like a soft hug—comforting, familiar, the kind of smell that made you forget for a second that the world was complicated. Rael and I walked in together. I felt a bit nervous, though I wasn’t sure why. Maybe it was because Leon was here. Maybe because I didn’t know who else was keeping secrets.Leon stood behind the counter, wearing a cream-colored apron and a tired, almost-genuine smile. His hair was tied back neatly, though a coffee stain marked the edge of his shirt. He looked exhausted—but calm.“My boss is here,” Leon said with a half-joking tone. “Should I stand up straight and salute or something?”I gave him a quick glance. “Leon.”Rael looked at him, like he was weighing something. There was a subtle tension between them. But I knew Rael could smell something—betrayal, maybe. Or just the trace of a small lie hidden beneath Leon’s usual grin.
MOONVEIL : The Blood of the Last Curse Chapter 27: The Guy in the Hoodie and His Secret
I sat in the back row of the lecture hall, pretending to take notes. The words on the screen blurred like rain washing away ink.Today was... insane.Xander stood beside a woman claiming to be his future Luna, and for some reason, it burned. Deep in my chest, like something being torn apart from the inside.He’s the only guy who’s ever kissed me—and maybe that kiss was what triggered the cursed blood running in my veins.Then Enzo cornered me before class started, his voice low and sharp, promising he wouldn’t give up. Not now. Not ever. His intensity still lingered on my skin like an invisible scar.And Jarek? He just showed up—like a storm with no warning, just impact.And Leon… sweet, stubborn Leon. The one who looks at me like he knows who I really am. And I didn’t answer him. I couldn’t. Not yet. I needed to talk to Rael and Tiana before I opened that door.Professor Reed's voice droned on from the front of the class, echoing

I froze.It wasn’t a conscious reaction. Before my brain even registered his face, my body had already locked up. I blinked once. Twice. Hoping my eyes were lying.But they weren’t.It was Jarek.The one name every pack feared.He stood near the fountain in the center of campus. Calm. Still. Like he belonged. But he didn’t. This was campus—where midterms and shitty vending machine coffee ruled.Not blood. Not ancient oaths.Next to me, Enzo was frozen, too. His hand still held mine, but he didn’t say a word. I knew him well enough to understand he was calculating. Watching. Waiting.Because everyone knew who Jarek was—and what he was capable of. He didn’t just destroy enemies. He tore through anyone who stood in his way. One wrong move could start a war. And not just for him—for every pack connected to us.What the hell was he doing here?This campus had always felt like the only safe place in
MOONVEIL : The Blood of the Last Curse Chapter 25: No Such Thing as Normal
This campus hasn’t changed.But ever since I came back from Moonveil, it feels like I’m walking through the same world… only now, I’m carrying a nightmare on my back.I try to focus on my studies—on things like stats class and term papers—anything but Xander, Enzo, Jarek, and the cursed mess that follows me like a shadow. If I can’t reject the curse, then I have to control it. That’s what Dad told me.A curse born of love... then love is what I must learn to command.But Xander’s words about matebonds won’t stop echoing in my head. Out of all the men, why is he the one I can’t seem to avoid?“Willow!”I turned quickly. Ivy—one of my classmates—was waving from the library steps. I gave her a small smile and a quick wave, but I didn’t slow down. Stats started in ten minutes. I needed a routine. Normalcy. Something that didn’t reek of blood, fate, or longing.Then I saw her.
MOONVEIL : The Blood of the Last Curse Chapter 24 – Matebond and Lies
I sat quietly in the corner of the café. The scent of coffee and toasted bread from Valencia wasn’t strong enough to clear the mess in my head.“Don’t just sit there, Willow,” Leon said, trying to sound casual, but I could see the curiosity in his eyes. “You’re killing me here.”How was I supposed to tell him I wasn’t even human?How could I explain that my bloodline was cursed by ancient power? That when the night bites and the moon hangs full in the sky, my body shifts—eyes glowing gold, skin sprouting fur, and fangs aching to tear?I looked down, avoiding his gaze. “It’s complicated.”Leon’s jaw tightened. “I’m not stupid, Willow. I’ve known something was off ever since you came back.”It felt like standing at the edge of a cliff, staring down, too scared to jump. “Just… don’t worry about it,” I said. Another lie. Another attempt to run away, even though I knew Leon wasn’t the type to give up easi
