Malik's POV

I watched as she took the message to the guest room to read it in private. I allowed her since it was addressed to her but I would be lying if I said that I was not curious.

Why would anyone be sending her a message from Blackthorn?

To distract myself from the thought, I picked up my phone to call my mother.

"Malik," she greeted after picking up. "How are you doing?"

"I'm good, mother. I just have to ask you some things."

"Things like what?"

I could hear the tension and curiosity in her voice.

"I want to know if you are aware of anything that's going on in Blackthorn," I stated and a shocked sigh fell from her lips.

"Why are you asking about that place?"

"Nothing serious. I just want to know if there have been any new developments."

I intentionally left out anything concerning my house guest. She didn't need to know about that.

"No, there hasn't. I already told you that I have detached from that place and you should too."

"Okay."

"That doesn't sound very conv

  • Moonlight Knows My Name    Chapter Fifty-Seven

    THE WARThe world had shaken under the claws of two strong packs : The Harttman and Blackthorn, this was long before Eve saw the world for the very first time, long before Malik or Astrid, long before Dorian’s father became Alpha.No one paid it any attention when it first started, it was a whisper at first, then slowly it became a feud, it was just small and petty Then it became a war for territory, a battle for rights of hunt line then the issue of a single violated border. But pride was at stake, it soon escalated. The first blood draw was in the winter. A Harttman hunter was found dead by Blackthorn river, his throat had been slitted with a blade, his body totally drained of all the warmth and color. Blackthorn however, swore innocence, they claimed rogues had been seen around the area some days ago. Harttman did not buy it. Their retaliation came the next moon and it was bad…homes had been burned to the ground, a newborn had been stolen and killed with the body dropped by th

  • Moonlight Knows My Name    Chapter Fifty-Six

    Dorian’s POV I walked around my chamber like a trapped beast, my heartbeat hammering hard inside of me. I couldn’t stop thinking of everything, Malik’s mother’s message, I thought about the urgency in it, the manner in which it was delivered, I thought about the markings, the blood, the illness, the prophecy from years ago. I kept seeing Eve’s eyes, then I dismissed it as just being stressed, but it was still replaying in my head, it looked too real to conclude it was just mere hallucination, I stopped myself from digging too deep into it because I couldn’t help the sudden pang of overwhelming guilt I felt, everything always came back to her even when she was just merely existing. “Alpha?” A soft knock interrupted my thoughts. Aiden stood reluctantly by the doorway. “Yes, Aiden?” He swallowed as he took slow steps towards me. “More wolves have been confirmed ill, the healers can’t slow down the speed of the infection, they say it’s spreading like smoke.” “Of course.” I exhaled

    Dorian’s POVI sat on my bed, my mind drifting into areas I didn't want to go into. I thought about how I left after the judgment had been passed, I wasn't sure but it mattered to her, but I still thought of it…why did I leave? Why didn't I say something to her?… anything at all? I just left, I think I was ashamed, I couldn't face her anywayAiden knocked, just a single knock, then he barged in like he had been pushed from outside, his face totally drained of color. “Alpha…” his voice broke as he tried to catch his breath. “There’s a situation.” My heart dropped. “Report!” He handed me a paper with shaking fingers, hi eyes avoided mine like I would kill him after reading the content. The paper looked stained with ink.It read: Sudden illness among pack members, the symptoms are said to be a serious cough of black ashlike substances, these symptoms are now spreading wildly. One thing about Aiden’s report, he wrote the way he felt, scattered and scared but then I read it twice ‘Bla

  • Moonlight Knows My Name    Chapter Fifty four

    Eve’s POVI woke up, still curled on the floor. I had convinced myself that whatever I had seen was just a dream.I slowly took in the quiet of the morning, I sluggishly rose to my feet for some water. The sun and quiet outside looked enticing. I thought it wise to go out. But the quiet in Blackthorn was just mythology right?!!! I heard the sound of voices as I walked towards the council chamber, normally I would have kept walking or just ignored but for some reason, I was drawn to the conversation. “…..i’ve only thought of one thing since the start of this issue…we might just be under the curse of Harttman.Harttman? Curse? “Interesting”I thought.I heard another voice. “After all these years, is this supposed to be revenge? We already came into an agreement.” “They were wiped out completely, you know!” he spat. “You don't just accept an agreement and then move on. Now we are dying, our patrols never return and…”“Coincidentally…” the other voice cut in. “She returns.” “Sure.”

  • Moonlight Knows My Name    Chapter Fifty-Three

    Eve’s POVMorning came and I had been called for the final judgment of my arraignment, I wasn’t worried, I couldn't tell what I felt, even as I stood before them yet again. She's cleared. The words echoed inside my head even after the judgment. I felt empty inside, this wasn't what victory or vindication was supposed to feel like.I watched as the council chamber buzzed with the same type of whispers I had heard a thousand times already. “….No proof…case dismissed.”Those were the only things I heard but then of course, as always. I didn't hear whatever the wolves spoke about, but I knew they spoke, one thing about them was that they never needed volume. Their words would hurt you regardless. I stood there, stiff, trying not to shake, holding myself together in other not to break. This vindication felt like I was tied to another chain, another injury, it was a reminder that in this place, I was always going to be guilty ofsomething.“You may leave.” an elder finally said as though

  • Moonlight Knows My Name    Chapter Fifty- Two

    Eve’s POVI heard the buzz of my phone muffled under my pillow, at first I thought it was Danny, my heart lept, but when I took it out…it was just Tess. I tried to not let my disappointment show because in a way I wasn't really disappointed, she had my son in her care anyway. Tess: Hey, he's been asking me questions about his dad and something about an Alpha.I've tried distracting him but he wouldn't drop it, I need some help here please I sat upright immediately, my room pitch black except for the hollow of my screen. My head aches almost immediately, I expected that as he grew and as he mixed with other kids his age, he would begin to have questions, I told myself I had all the answers he would need, but I failed to actually prepare myself for the day the question is thrown at me, I looked at the little frame of the cutest six years old on my lockscreen, I looked at his pretty blue eyes and wished they had seen more truths than lies.I wish I gave him a life free of coverups and hi
