“Who’s there?” Aurora demanded again, eyes darting to the door.

Arnold frowned, listening for a second, then he waved a dismissive hand. “It’s nothing. Probably just the maid.”

Aurora wasn’t convinced. Her eyes narrowed. “I’m sure it’s something, Arnold. What if someone was watching?”

He sighed, exasperated. “You worry too much.”

“Just check,” she insisted, voice sharp with irritation.

With a reluctant growl, Arnold got up and swung the door open. At that exact moment, Miran, one of th

  • Marked by the Moon: The Tribrid Queen   Chapter 39: The Blood Moon III

    “All done, my lady.”Dru whispered, stepping back slowly.Her mouth fell open as she looked Arielle up and down.“Oh, Moon Goddess…” she breathed. “Thank you for blessing our pack with this beauty.”Arielle opened her eyes slowly and looked at her reflection.For a moment, she did not recognize the woman in the mirror.The shimmering silver-white fabric seemed alive, like liquid starlight poured over her skin.It didn't just reflect light; it held it, glowing softly like moonlight on water.The fabric flowed effortlessly over her body before falling in gentle, graceful layers to the floor. Fine silver threads were woven through it, faint as distant stars. The neckline was simple but refined, traced with delicate lunar symbols that glimmered subtly when she moved.Long sheer sleeves rested lightly at her wrists, adding to the quiet elegance of the dress.She wore no heavy jewels, only a pair of silver earrings that caught the light with every turn of her head.Her hair fell in loose,

    Seraphina arrived at Shadow Fang just as the sky began to darken into deep violet.The guards at the entrance bowed low, their heads dipping in respect as she passed. “Lady Seraphina.”She acknowledged them with a small nod, and walked straight into the mansion, like she never left.Her personal maid hurried forward, taking her travel cloak and bag.“Welcome back, my lady.”Seraphina did not slow down. “Later.”She headed straight for Ethan’s chambers.Without knocking, Seraphina pushed open the heavy doors to Ethan’s chambers.Inside, Ethan stood before a tall mirror. He was already dressed in his Alpha ritual garment—a heavy, black fabric fitted to his frame, embroidered with silver threads that seemed to catch the light of the rising moon. He was adjusting the collar, his movements sharp and precise."What do you want, Seraphina?" he asked. His voice was cold, devoid of any warmth. He didn't even turn to look at her."You could at least look at me before asking why I’m here, Ethan

    Ethan stood by the window, his gaze fixed on the horizon where the sun dipped slowly, surrendering to the velvet rise of the coming Blood Moon.A knock sounded at the door.“Enter,” he said calmly.Leo stepped inside and bowed.“You asked for the final report on the ritual preparations, Alpha.”Ethan turned to face him, his expression steady. “Has the Moon Nexus been cleaned of old energy?” Ethan asked, his voice deep and commanding.Leo stepped forward, holding a scroll, his expression grave. “Yes, Alpha. The seers finished the cleansing at midday, and the ancestral ashes have been scattered at the four corners of the holy ground as tradition demands.”“Good. Is the ceremonial blade purified in moonwater?”“It is,” Leo confirmed.“Are the silver bowls prepared for the Alpha and Luna blood? Has the binding cloth been soaked in sacred oil?”“Everything is ready,” Leo confirmed. “The bowls for the Alpha and Luna’s blood are set. The binding cloth is soaked in sacred oil. The blood chann

    The iron gates of the Stormclaw Mansion swung open with a heavy groan.A pack of wolves came running out of the forest, kicking up dust as they headed for the courtyard.At the front was a sleek silver-grey wolf with golden eyes that were cold and sharp.It was Seraphina. Next to her were four massive black wolves from the Shadow Fang pack. Ethan didn’t want to take any risks, so he had ordered his guards to protect her until she reached her own home.When they reached the middle of the courtyard, the wolves skidded to a stop. And in a quick blur of shifting bones, Seraphina changed back into her human form. The other wolves, who had followed her every step of the way, dipped their heads in a final, respectful bow. Without a sound, they turned back towards the tree line and vanished into the shadows, their powerful paws hitting the earth as they raced back to the Shadow Fang Territory. “Luna Seraphina is back!” A guard shouted from the watchtower.Immediately, the courtyard came

  • Marked by the Moon: The Tribrid Queen   Chapter 35: The Beginning of The Moon Titan Ruin

    (The MoonTitan Pack)The air in the Alpha’s office was thick with the smell of stale parchment and the rising heat of an argument. Xander paced the floor, his boots thudding heavily against the rug. He looked at his son, Arnold, who sat at the head of the long stone table, one leg crossed over the other, fingers tapping lazily on the desk—a desk Xander had occupied with honor for decades."You aren't running a pack, Arnold," Xander growled, his voice vibrating with warning. "You are running a business. And a poor one at that."Arnold didn't even look up from the ledger he was studying. He was scribbling notes about tax brackets, his eyes greedy.“The coffers are fuller than they’ve been in years, Father. That is called success."“This pack is not a market stall, Arnold,” Xander snapped. “You cannot rule it by counting taxes alone while the borders rot.”Arnold scoffed. “The pack needs coins to survive. Power isn’t maintained by sentiment, Father.”“It is maintained by security,” Xan

    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. “And the Alpha’s scent on your skin… it suits you. You smell radiant—like something shifted, like the mark changed you overnight.”Arielle felt the heat rush to her face. "Oh, come on, Dru. Enough with the teasing. Just prepare my bath, please."Dru placed a hand dramatically over her chest. “Teasing? I’m simply appreciating what my eyes are seeing.”“Dru,” Arielle warned, trying to hide her smile.Dru giggled.“Fine, fine.” She lifted her hands. “I’ll prepare your bath.” She said heading into the washroom to start the water.Then she spoke again, her voice softer now.“But… truly, my lady…”Arielle glanced towards the washroom, as the sound of splashing water filled the room, Dru continued
