No one moved.

No one spoke.

Because no one understood what they had just heard.

“They’re coming.”

The words lingered in the air like a warning that hadn’t fully landed yet.

Damon’s chest rose slowly as he steadied himself, his eyes never leaving her.

“Who is coming?” he asked again, his voice lower now—but more dangerous.

Lyra didn’t answer immediately.

Her head tilted slightly, like she was listening.

Not to them.

To something else.

Something far beyond the walls.

  • Marked By The Moon Goddess   CHAPTER 21: The One They Kneel To

    No one moved. No one breathed. Because what stood before them— Was not attacking. It was kneeling. Damon’s body remained tense, every instinct screaming at him to strike, to defend, to do something— But nothing about this made sense. The creature’s head was lowered. Not in weakness. Not in submission. But in recognition. Behind him, Lyra’s voice came again. “…they remember me.” Damon turned slowly. “What does that mean?” he demanded. She didn’t answer immediately. Her eyes were locked on the creature. Drawn to it. Like something inside her was responding. Calling. “They’re not confused,” she whispered. “They know exactly who I am.” A chill ran through Damon. That wasn’t relief. That was worse. “What are you to them?” he asked. Her throat moved as she swallowed. “I don’t know…” she admitted. But her voice— Didn’t sound convinced. The creature shifted. Slowly. Carefully. It lifted its head. Its glowing eyes locked onto hers again. And this time— Someth

  • Marked By The Moon Goddess   CHAPTER 20: What Crawls Out of the Dark

    The first thing Damon noticed— Was the silence. Not the absence of sound. But the absence of life. No wind. No insects. No movement in the trees. Even the night itself felt like it had stepped back. Waiting. Watching. The thing rising from the ground moved slowly, deliberately, as if it had all the time in the world. The earth split wider beneath it, chunks of soil collapsing inward as something… wrong emerged. At first, it didn’t look like anything familiar. Not wolf. Not human. Not anything Damon had ever seen. It was tall— Too tall. Its limbs unnaturally long, its body slightly distorted, like it had been shaped incorrectly… or unfinished. Darkness clung to it. Not shadow— Something thicker. Something alive. Its head lifted slowly. And then— Its eyes opened. A faint glow. The same glow as Lyra’s mark. Damon’s chest tightened. “It’s connected to her…” Kael’s voice came from beside him, low and strained. “What the hell is that thing?” Damon didn’t answ

    No one moved. No one spoke. Because no one understood what they had just heard. “They’re coming.” The words lingered in the air like a warning that hadn’t fully landed yet. Damon’s chest rose slowly as he steadied himself, his eyes never leaving her. “Who is coming?” he asked again, his voice lower now—but more dangerous. Lyra didn’t answer immediately. Her head tilted slightly, like she was listening. Not to them. To something else. Something far beyond the walls. “They’re closer than before,” she murmured. A ripple of unease spread through the warriors behind Damon. Kael stepped forward this time, his voice tight. “Alpha… this isn’t normal.” Damon didn’t respond. Because he already knew that. Nothing about this was normal. Nothing about her— Was normal. “Lyra,” Damon said again, more firmly this time. “Look at me.” Slowly— She did. But it wasn’t the look he wanted. It wasn’t hers. “What you’re hearing,” he continued, holding her gaze, “it’s not real.” A pa

  • Marked By The Moon Goddess   CHAPTER 18: The Girl Who Isn’t Her

    Damon didn’t move. He couldn’t. Not because he was afraid— But because he didn’t recognize what stood in front of him anymore. “Is that what you’ve been calling me?” The voice was soft. Too soft. Too calm. Lyra tilted her head slightly, her gaze fixed on him—not with confusion, not with fear… But with curiosity. Like he was something unfamiliar. Something to be studied. Damon’s jaw tightened. “Lyra,” he said carefully. Her lips curved faintly. “Interesting,” she murmured again, almost to herself. “You say that name like it belongs to me.” A sharp silence followed. Damon took a step forward. Slow. Controlled. “It does,” he said. “You’re Lyra.” Her eyes held his. Unblinking. Unmoved. “Am I?” The question wasn’t uncertain. It was… detached. Like she didn’t care what the answer was. Behind him, the man let out a quiet breath of satisfaction. “She’s further along than I expected.” Damon’s gaze snapped toward him. “You’re not speaking again,” he said coldly. B

  • Marked By The Moon Goddess   CHAPTER 17: The Truth That Breaks Her

    The words didn’t just land. They shattered. You are it. Lyra felt them echo through her—louder than the pain, louder than her heartbeat, louder than everything. For a second— She couldn’t breathe. Couldn’t think. Couldn’t move. Because that didn’t make sense. It couldn’t. “I—no…” she whispered, shaking her head weakly. “That’s not—” “It is,” the man said calmly. Damon moved instantly, stepping fully between them now, his entire presence turning lethal. “That’s enough,” he said, his voice low and dangerous. “You’re done talking.” The man barely reacted. His gaze stayed on Lyra. Always her. “You feel it,” he continued, as if Damon hadn’t spoken at all. “Every time it surfaces. Every time it responds.” Lyra’s chest tightened. Because he was right. She did feel it. Not like something foreign. Not like something invading her. But like something… waking up. “No,” she said again, stronger this time—but it still lacked certainty. “It’s not me.”

  • Marked By The Moon Goddess   CHAPTER 16: What Walks Among Them

    Silence followed her words. But not the kind that calmed. The kind that warned. Damon didn’t move. Didn’t speak. His gaze stayed locked on Lyra’s face, sharp, searching—like he was trying to see something beyond what was in front of him. “It’s already here,” he repeated slowly. Not disbelief. Confirmation. Lyra’s breathing was uneven now, her grip tightening around her wrist as the mark pulsed again—harder this time. It wasn’t fading. It was reacting. To something. Close. Too close. “I can feel it,” she whispered, her voice strained. “It’s not like before… it’s—” She stopped. Her body went rigid. Damon noticed immediately. “What?” he demanded. Lyra didn’t answer. Her eyes had shifted. Not toward the door. Not toward the pack. But… past them. Like she was listening to something no one else could hear. A cold shiver ran down her spine. “It’s moving,” she said softly. Damon’s posture changed instantly. Every muscle in his body tensed. “Where?” Lyra swallowe
