작가: Ucee
last update 게시일: 2026-01-11 06:48:41

Inside Arielle’s chambers, a soft, tentative knock broke the stillness.

"Lady Arielle?"

It was Drusilla.

No answer.

She knocked again, firmer this time. “Lady Arielle…?”

Still nothing.

A crease formed between Drusilla’s brows. That was unusual.

She eased the door open and stepped inside, her eyes scanning the room. She held a small wooden treatment kit, the scent of antiseptic and clean linen trailing after her.

“Lady Arielle?” she called again, her voice was thin, carrying a note of habitua

  • Marked by the Moon: The Tribrid Queen   Chapter 47: Watched By All, Claimed By One

    The heavy iron-bound doors of the training grounds swung open with a deep, echoing creak.Conversations died instantly. The rhythmic clank of practice swords faltered. One by one, heads turned until every gaze in the vast arena settled on the pair standing at the entrance.Ethan stepped in first, his presence hitting the room like a physical weight, dark, unyielding, and absolute.But today, it was the woman beside him who stole the breath from every chest in the room.Arielle.A subtle, electric shift moved through the air. There was recognition, sharp curiosity, and something quieter, a genuine admiration. The warriors straightened instinctively, and then, as if moved by a single invisible string, they bowed low."Alpha.""And Luna."The title lingered in the air. Arielle felt it settle against her skin, heavy and real. Luna.As they rose, soft murmurs rippled through the ranks like wind through wheat."Do you see them together?""They actually look...""Perfect," one warrior wh

  • Marked by the Moon: The Tribrid Queen   Chapter 46: Within His Reach

    Arielle stood before the full-length mirror, her gaze fixed on the woman staring back at her.The fitted black combat outfit clung to her frame, sleek and precise, catching the morning light with a subtle sheen. It molded to her body as though it had been made for her alone.She reached for her fighting gloves, tightening the straps with deliberate precision, securing them firmly around her wrists, feeling the familiar weight settle over her knuckles.Then she straightened.For a moment, she simply stared at herself.And then, her gaze hardened, something cold and resolute settling deep within her chest.Finally,After the chaotic Blood Moon ritual and the overwhelming surge of ancient power that nearly consumed her, she was back.Back to training.Back to herself.And now, she could focus again.On her goals.Her jaw tightened slightly as the thoughts aligned, clear and unshakable.The goals she had set for herself to become a Luna no one would ever betray again. A Luna who would not

  • Marked by the Moon: The Tribrid Queen   Chapter 45: The Iron Ground Selection

    Leo stepped onto the Iron Grounds, and his presence cut through the noise like a blade.Behind him, over two hundred and fifty warriors were scattered across the vast training field.The air was filled with the scent of sweat, disturbed ground, and the metallic tang of steel.Dust hung in the air. Steel clashed. Wolves snarled.Bodies moved in violent rhythm, strike, dodge, counter."Enough!" Leo’s voice rang out, amplified by his Beta authority.The grounds fell silent almost instantly. All eyes turned to him.“The Alpha requires two hundred warriors,” Leo announced, his voice firm and unyielding.“You will be deployed to Stormclaw to reinforce their borders. You will defend their territory with your lives, because they are our allies.”His gaze hardened, sweeping over the sweat-drenched men.“Only the two hundred strongest will be chosen. Training begins now. Prove you are worthy.”And just like that, chaos erupted.Dust rose in thick clouds as warriors lunged at one another. It wa

  • Marked by the Moon: The Tribrid Queen   Chapter 44: The Army She Wanted

    Ethan stood perfectly still at the foot of the bed, his hands tucked deep into his pockets. He had been dressed for an hour, but he couldn't bring himself to leave yet.He simply stood there watching Arielle sleep.She looked peaceful, a rare sight for a woman who had endured so much.The early morning light poured into the chamber, brushing gently against her skin, making her look almost unreal… like she was still part of the moon’s world.Her silver hair was spread across the black silk pillows like a fallen star. A small smile rested on his lips.For a moment, he said nothing.Just watched.As if committing the sight of her to memory.Then—A small, unconscious smile tugged at her lips, as if she could sense his presence even in her dreams.Ethan’s smile deepened.A few minutes later, her lashes fluttered. She groaned softly , opening her eyes, only to shut them immediately, wincing as the bright morning light hit her face.Ethan moved instantly. He stepped into the light, using

    (Back in the interrogation chamber)Ethan turned his gaze toward Alex, who was still cowering on the floor."Take this one out of my sight," Ethan spat. "Lock him up and starve him for a week. That will teach him the cost of disobeying my direct orders."Alex didn’t say a word as the guards dragged him out of the chamber. In truth, he was fortunate to be given such a punishment. If the Alpha had been in a more ruthless mood, he would already be dead by now.Ethan closed his eyes again, leaning back against the throne still trying to curtail his anger. He felt the beast pacing inside him, wanting to tear through the hearts of the perpetrators.But he forced himself to hold back.Not here.Not now.Most of all, not while Arielle was in the mansion. He wouldn’t want her seeing that side of him—the ruthless monster his enemies feared.Finally, he opened his eyes and looked at the remaining guards and warriors."Listen, all of you!" Ethan said, addressing them. "I will only say this once.

  • Marked by the Moon: The Tribrid Queen   Chapter 42: The Interrogation Chamber

    "On it, Alpha," Leo’s voice was sharp and immediate.He turned away from Ethan, his eyes turned a clouded, milky grey as he opened a mind-link with the mansion’s security guards and warriors.“All guards and warriors report to the interrogation chamber immediately,” his voice echoed through their minds. “And bring Alex, the guard the Alpha ordered to deliver the ritual card to Lady Arielle.”The guards’ acknowledgment buzzed back through the link. Understood.Leo’s eyes snapped back to normal as the link closed.Without wasting another second, he followed Ethan down the corridor toward the interrogation wing.The air around the Alpha was… dangerous.Heavy.Leo could feel the rage radiating from him like heat from a wildfire.And he knew better than to make even the smallest mistake tonight. One wrong move could be a death sentence.They reached the massive iron doors of the interrogation chamber.Leo hurried forward and pushed the doors open. The hinges groaned.The chamber was dimly

  • Marked by the Moon: The Tribrid Queen   Chapter 34: She Is My Mate

    Drusilla moved around Arielle, practically glowing with excitement. “My lady,” she said with a grin she couldn’t hide, “I have to say it, you look dangerously good in that shirt. It’s far too big on you, yet somehow it makes you look even more beautiful.”She leaned in slightly, lowering her voice.

    She wanted him deep inside her, striking every part of her walls, hitting her womb, making her reach her peak. She wanted more and he was more than willing to satisfy her.Ethan flipped her onto her back again, spreading her legs wide. "I know you want more," he rasped, eyes glowing faintly with re

  • Marked by the Moon: The Tribrid Queen   Chapter 31: The Luna’s Touch

    Leo heard the sound of footsteps coming down the hall. He immediately reached for the hilt of his sword, his body tensing up. But as the figure emerged from the shadows, stepping into the light, his hand relaxed, only to be replaced by a feeling of pure dread.It was Arielle. She was walking toward

  • Marked by the Moon: The Tribrid Queen   Chapter 30: The King in the Cage

    The door slammed shut behind Ethan, with a sound that shook the walls. Outside, the guards froze, their hearts skipping as the heavy thud signaled a terrifying shift in the atmosphere.Inside, Ethan pressed his forehead against the wood, breathing in short burning gasps. It didn't help.Nothing he
