The three of them stood together, Emily holding Elias's hand while Kael stood at her side, their shoulders touching. For the first time since the First Soul had awakened, Emily allowed herself to believe they might actually have a chance. They had survived the First House. They had survived the Hollow. They had faced Auren, the First Soul, and the impossible truth about where they came from. Whatever waited beyond the stars, they would face it together.

Then Elias went completely still.

  • Moonbound   The Door Inside Him

    Emily stopped several feet from them.Every instinct in her body screamed at her to run toward Kael, to grab him, to pull him away from whatever had taken hold of him. But she couldn't move. The two men standing in front of her looked like Kael, sounded like Kael, even carried the same familiar scars, yet the blackness in their eyes made them strangers. Elias stood behind Emily, trembling so violently that she could feel it through his hand.“Daddy?” he whispered.Both Kaels turned toward him.Their heads moved at exactly the same time.Emily's stomach twisted.The Kael from her timeline smiled.The other Kael smiled too.Then they spoke together.“Not yet.”Elias screamed.Emily pulled him behind her.“No.”The two Kaels stepped forward.Emily raised her hands.“If there's something inside you, fight it.”The Kael closest to her stopped.For a moment, his face changed.The blackness in his eyes flickered.“Emily…”Her heart jumped.“Kael?”He looked at her, and for one brief second s

  • Moonbound   Beneath the World

    The earth moved beneath Emily's feet before she could even process what she had heard. It wasn't an earthquake. Earthquakes were chaotic, violent, unpredictable. This was different. The ground seemed to be breathing. It rose beneath them in one slow movement and then dropped again, as though something enormous beneath the surface had taken its first breath after being asleep for thousands of years. Elias screamed and grabbed Emily's waist, while both Kaels instinctively moved in front of them. Auren stumbled backward, his translucent form flickering violently.Then the voice came again.“Emily.”This time it was louder.Closer.And unmistakably hers.Emily looked at the ground.“Who are you?”For several seconds, there was no answer.Then the earth cracked.A thin line appeared between Emily and the two Kaels. It glowed with the same silver light that had surrounded the First Soul, except there was something darker underneath it. The light spread outward in every direction, creating a

  • Moonbound   The Prisoner

    The black eye remained suspended above them, perfectly still against the night sky. Emily could not tear her gaze away from it. She had spent so long believing the First Soul was the beginning of everything that the idea of something existing before it made her feel as though the ground beneath her had disappeared. The First Soul had been ancient beyond comprehension. It had created worlds, souls, possibilities, and timelines. It had known things no living being could possibly know. Yet now a voice from somewhere beyond the stars had called it a prisoner. Not a creator. Not a god. A prisoner. Emily tightened her grip on Elias's hand while Kael moved instinctively closer to her, and even the other Kael stopped arguing with reality long enough to stare upward. None of them spoke because there was nothing they could say. The truth they had fought for was suddenly beginning to look like the smallest piece of something far more terrifying.Auren was the first to move. He stepped forward sl

  • Moonbound   Two Lives

    Emily couldn't move.For several seconds, she simply stared at the two men standing in front of her. They were identical, but somehow they weren't. The Kael on the left carried himself with a quiet exhaustion that Emily recognized immediately. His shoulders were slightly lower, his eyes carried years of grief, and there was a thin scar across his cheek that her Kael didn't have. The Kael on the right looked younger, though they were technically the same age. His eyes were sharper, his posture more guarded, and the black veins that had appeared earlier were still faintly visible beneath his skin. Yet both were unmistakably Kael.And both were staring at her like she was the only thing left in existence.“Emily,” they said together.Her heart cracked.She looked at Elias.He was standing between them, tears running down his face, but he wasn't afraid anymore. Somehow, he seemed to understand something she didn't.“Which one is my dad?” Emily whispered.Elias looked at both men.“Both.”

  • Moonbound   Wrong Choice

    The fourth knock echoed through the field.Emily couldn't move.For a moment, the entire world seemed to hold its breath. Kael stood directly in front of her, one hand pressed against his chest, his face twisted with confusion and fear. The black veins that had appeared beneath his skin were spreading slowly now, branching across his neck and disappearing beneath his shirt. Yet his eyes remained his own. Emily knew those eyes. She had spent lifetimes searching for them. She had seen them angry, frightened, joyful, exhausted, and filled with love.Now they were terrified.“Emily,” Kael whispered. “I don't know what that is.”The voice inside his chest laughed.But I do.Kael doubled over.Emily rushed toward him, but Elias grabbed her wrist.“Mama, wait!”“Let me go!”“It's not trying to hurt him.”Emily stared at her son.“How could you possibly know that?”Elias's eyes had begun glowing silver again.“Because it already did.”Kael suddenly screamed.The sound ripped through Emily.He

  • Moonbound   Choose

    The words hung in the darkness.Emily couldn't move.For one impossible second, she stared at Kael and tried to convince herself that she had misunderstood him. The face was still his. The eyes were still silver. The scar above his eyebrow was still there. Even the tiny crease beside his mouth that appeared whenever he was trying not to smile was exactly the same. Every detail belonged to the man she loved.But something was wrong.Something was terribly, impossibly wrong.“Kael?” she whispered.He looked at her.“I’m here.”The answer should have comforted her.Instead, it terrified her.Because his voice sounded exactly like Kael's.Not altered.Not possessed.Not distorted.Exactly like him.Emily took one cautious step backward.Elias moved closer to her.“That's not Daddy.”Kael's expression softened.“Elias.”The boy shook his head.“No.”Kael slowly extended a hand.“Come here.”Elias immediately stepped behind Emily.Emily felt his fingers tighten around the back of her shirt.
