Moonlight Pact CHAPTER 21 — The Voice Under the Skin
POV: AriaSleep was a rumor.The house had gone quiet hours ago. Maya’s breathing had settled into a soft, uneven rhythm in the next room. Rowan’s presence sat outside like a weight at the edge of my awareness. Kai was somewhere along the ridge, too far to see, too close not to feel.And the forest—The forest was not asleep.It pulsed against the windows. Not with sound. Not with movement.With attention.I lay on my side, staring at the thin slice of sky visible between the curtain and the fr
Moonlight Pact CHAPTER 20 — The Line You Don’t Cross
POV: AriaKai didn’t speak until the door clicked shut behind us.He stood in the middle of my living room with that controlled tension that meant he was fighting ten instincts at once. Rowan hovered near the hallway. Both of them were coiled, alert.Maya was halfway into the room when she stopped, looked between us, and frowned.“Okay… weird energy.”She pointed her granola bar at Rowan. “You. Stop lurking.”Then at Kai. “You. Stop looking like someone died.”Then at me. “And you—talk.”
Moonlight Pact CHAPTER 19 — What Answers Back
POV: AriaRowan’s single word—Trouble—hung in the doorway long after the echo died.Cold trickled down my spine. Not fear, exactly.Recognition.Like my body understood something my mind didn’t.Maya hovered behind me, arms crossed, eyebrows raised.“Okay,” she said. “That’s not ominous at all. Super casual. Very normal.”Rowan didn’t react. He just watched the tree line, jaw tight, the muscles in his forearms strung like wire.He wasn’t ignoring her.He was listening—for something else.Something I couldn’t yet hear.The silence stretched, heavy and wrong.Then Rowan spoke without looking at either of us.“Stay inside.”It wasn’t a suggestion.Maya bristled. “Excuse me—?”“Inside,” he repeated.His voice wasn’t louder. It didn’t need to be.I stepped back, pulling Maya with me by the wrist.She frowned. “Aria, what—”“Not now,” I whispered. “Please.”Rowan didn’t move until the door closed between us.Only then did my breath leave my lungs.Maya paced, running both hands through her
Moonlight Pact CHAPTER 18 — When the Woods Start Talking
POV: AriaBy midafternoon, the house felt too small.Rowan was a quiet kind of loud. He barely moved, barely spoke, barely breathed in any way that made sound—but I could feel him.Outside. Near the treeline. A steady weight at the edge of my awareness.Guard dog, Maya had called him.She wasn’t entirely wrong.I stood at the kitchen sink, rinsing a mug that was already clean, watching him through the window. He was on the porch now, leaning against the railing, arms folded, eyes fixed on the trees.Like he was daring the forest to try something.Maya padded in behind me, chewing on a piece of toast.She followed my gaze, then made a face.“He’s still here,” she muttered. “Does he ever go home?”“Sometimes,” I said.“Is he being paid? Is this a job? Is he, like… forest security?”I almost snorted. “Something like that.”She narrowed her eyes. “He’s acting like a guard dog, Aria. Just saying.”I didn’t answer.Because she wasn’t wrong about that either.The memory of last night brushe
Moonlight Pact CHAPTER 17 — The Line Between Truth and Almost
POV: AriaMaya had been pacing since morning.Not unusual.What was unusual was the way she kept glancing toward the back door like it personally owed her money.“Is he like this every day?” she muttered, glaring at the treeline.“Who?” I asked, pretending I didn’t know.She gave me the most unimpressed look imaginable.“Forest Guy 2. Diet Kai. The runner. Whatever his name is.”“Rowan,” I said.“Yeah. Him.”She moved to the window again, arms crossed tight.“He’s been standing out there for twenty minutes. Doing NOTHING. Just existing all weird and intense. Why is he HERE?”I opened my mouth—Closed it.There was no simple answer that wouldn’t unravel ten more lies.“He’s just… helping,” I offered weakly.“Helping WHAT?!” Maya threw her hands up. “This isn’t normal! No one stands outside someone’s house like a statue unless they’re guarding something or plotting something or—”“Maya—”“Nope. I want answers.”Before I could stop her, she marched toward the door with terrifying determi
Moonlight Pact CHAPTER 16 - The House Between Worlds
POV: AriaHaving a werewolf in your living room was a lot louder than I expected.Not in actual sound.In… everything else.Rowan didn’t move much. He sat on the end of the couch like he’d been placed there and hadn’t figured out what to do with his hands since. One on his knee. One wrapped around a mug of tea he hadn’t drunk.But even when he was still, he felt like motion. Coiled. Contained. Ready.My wolf—sleeping, half-formed, whatever she was—stirred every time I stepped into the room, like she knew exactly what he was.Maya, on the other hand, had no idea.She walked in with a bowl of popcorn and a suspicious squint.“So,” she said, drawing the word out like a knife. “Let me get this straight. Forest Guy Number Two is now… what? Our guard dog?”I winced. “He can hear you.”“I know he can hear me,” she said. “I’m not whispering.”Rowan didn’t flinch. His gaze stayed on the muted TV, where a sitcom couple argued silently.“He’s here because Kai asked him to be,” I said. “Just for
