Keith

Leon shifts into the lamplight—a silhouette I know better than the moon. His dark hair falls over one eye. He wears a simple cloak, but carries the same warmth in his eyes that lingered there when he was in the warriors' barracks.

There is something different about him, though, that look, the years that hidden behind his eyes have somehow come forward. Or maybe I'm just seeing him clearly for the first time.

He halts a pace behind me.

“Hey,” he says.

My wolf is alert. Ready to spring at the slightest indication of trouble.

“Don't hey me. Explain yourself, Leon, or whoever you are.”

He ignores my questio,n looking over his shoulder before he says. “You're wandering the riverbank at midnight, alone. That's not safe.”

“It’s a big city, ”I reply, voice stiff.

“And yet I find you in the quietest place, the most illusive,” he says softly.

My heart lurches.

Leon steps closer.

I take a step back.

“How much did you lie about? Are you even fifteen?”

“I’m not going to hurt you,” he says.

  • Reborn Luna   40.He’s been possessive

    HopeKeith’s hand is warm against my waist as we step into the ballroom. His arm stays firm around me, and I let it. Ever since he walked in on Camille trying to kiss me, he hasn’t left my side. Not for more than a breath. He’s been possessive, protective… and my wolf eats it up.His spicy scent washes over me and makes the primal side of me want to rub against him.I want to lean into the edge he's walking on. Goddess, I want to. But not here. Not while we’re still surrounded by potential threats, on land that doesn’t belong to us.Instead, I settle for small brushes of my fingers against the strong cords of his arms. The slight press of my body to his.A deep satisfied rumble sounds in his chest.“Careful. You do want me to behave tonight don't you,”he says.The infection in his voice tells me he's wishing for the opposite.The ballroom sparkles in dark gem tones—deep ruby, emerald, and sapphire draped from the ceiling, reflected in polished floors and faceless masks. Waiters in bla

  • Reborn Luna   39.Playboy prince

    HopeI close the hotel door behind me as quietly as I can, but it still clicks too loud in the silence.Tessa's sitting on the edge of the couch, her knees pulled up, her phone clenched in both hands. She looks up the second I enter, and I see the storm in her eyes before she says a word.“Hope.” She exhales my name like she’s been holding her breath since I left.“Hey,” I say, offering a weak smile. “Sorry.”“Where were you?” She’s already on her feet. “Do you know how worried I’ve been?”I nod, toe off my boots. “I know. I’m sorry. I didn’t mean to scare you.”She steps closer, eyes scanning my face. “You didn’t answer your phone. You just… vanished. Are you okay?”“Yeah. Yeah, I’m fine. I just—something came up.”“Something? Hope, that’s not an answer.”“I can’t really explain it,” I say, shifting my weight. “It’s not dangerous or anything. Just… complicated.”Tessa crosses her arms. “You’re bleeding. What the hell happened. “She grabbed my hand and pulled it up to eye level. There

  • Reborn Luna   37.Queen’s dreadful tactics

    HopeThe queen's gaze is sharp as a blade. “Take her to the dungeons.”Two guards appear like spectators and each grabs one of the arms supporting her weight as they carry her away.The queen gives a signal while starting to usher Keith and I towards a door I never noticed before.Music sounds behind us, and the murmuring of a continued part commences as we enter the hidden room.When the door closes behind us all the sound is muted.“The healer should be here any moment. Please sit.”The queen gestures to a couch. I walk with Keith, and we sit together, my hand never leaving hisA rumble vibrates beneath my palm, and the queen notices.It's a small movement, so sharp and twisting that it could almost be taken as a trick of the eye, but. I know it isn't.She doesn't like seeing us together.“How did Wolfebanks make it into the place? “ Keith asks.“I don't know,” the queen clasps her hands together in front of her, but I can assure you we are going to find out.”“And they made.

  • Reborn Luna   36.Wolfsbane

    HopeI slip into the ballroom just after the doors open with Tessa and Ben by my side. Kieth and Papa arrived earlier at the invitation of the King.Electricity hums through the crowd. Everyone is mingling—noblewomen whispering over glasses of red, southerners in shirtsleeves laughing near high-top tables, musicians swapping tunes in a corner. Music pulses the air, toasts echo.The suitors and females are working the floor. Some dancing, others laughing and mingling, ready to secure alliances at the very least.It still surprises me how open so many shifters are to chosen mates.I suppose when you're Royal, there are things that matter more than true love.Prince Camille dances with a female in the center of the room, and though his face looks pleasant enough, something feels forced about it.He lifts his eyes, and they meet mine. The feeling of déjà vu settles over me.It's like I know his eyes, his stare, but it's impossible.The pair turns on the dancefloor, and the moment is broke

  • Reborn Luna   35.Her game

    HopeI step into the sunlit dining room where the high table is already strewn with plates and chatter. At one long table sat the male suitors, Keith and Ben among them.There was Marcus, the son of the Alpha of the Sun flare pack, Dorian, a gamma and celebrated enforcer in the Bowling Creek pack, Roland, a sigma from Virelia, said to come from a long line of truth speakers, and Tobin, a quiet, surly beta from the Mercury pack. Prince Camille has yet to be seen amongst us, and the possibilities make my chest clench.We will find him, my wolf assures me.Optimistic, aren't you?Across from them, at the table Tessa and I were currently occupying, were the females. Rosie and her too bright smile from the Willow pack, June, daughter of the head enforcer from the Silver Fang pack, Ariella, the Mercury pack's healer's daughter, and across the end sits Lilith, quiet and watchful, even though she maintains conversation with the others.The after has been good, if not utterly full. And still n
