Red Moon 29-1: négociations
Emmanuelle walked furiously towards her house. She was horrified by what had happened. Dark thoughts filled her mind and froze her heart.Her beloved was following her at a distance of ten steps under the order she had given him. Harry's mind was entirely focused on her.She still shivered as she thought of Harry's cold, murderous stare. There had been no spark of warmth when she had confronted him. Moreover, he had only looked at her and had not even spoken a word when she had forbidden him to touch her.Emmanuelle knew that it was his wolf who had acted on impulse. But by the way her beloved had looked at her, she realized that he had no regrets.Harry was following her, his mind in perfect sync with his wolf at the moment. She had ordered him to stay back, very good. He did not want to touch her right now either because he could feel what his Mate thought of him through their bond. She tried to make him feel guilty when he felt he had done the right thing. He felt absolutely

Harry simply tossed the blanket onto the bed with a sharp motion and crossed his arms against his chest. "Get dressed," Emmanuelle ordered, challenging him with her eyes. Harry leaned forward so that he was at the same eye level as her. "Tell me, little Mate. How is my nudity disturbing since it's just the two of us?" he asked with an amused look. However, Harry and his wolf were still disturbed at the thought of other vampires lusting after their Mate, worse, biting her. Emmanuelle squinted before crossing her arms under her chest. She was far too proud to admit that her beloved's words were admissible, but there was no way she was going to admit it out loud. She was still a highborn vampire, and she wasn't used to people standing up to her. "It is daylight," was the only answer she was able to give him. Harry stood still for a few seconds before wrinkling his nose. "And?" he asked. Emmanuelle pressed her lips together before running an annoyed hand through the length of her
Red Moon 30-1: good soul
Emmanuelle saw the door close on Harry. She had the ignominious feeling that she had made a severe mistake. Moreover, she hadn't had time to say anything else, as Harry had already turned away. She looked down at her cell phone before sighing deeply. "It is me," she said for any announcement. "Why can I hear the melancholy in your voice, dear Emmanuelle?" Augustine asked patiently. The vampire stood up and walked towards the large bay window overlooking the outside of her domain. In front of her, fertile fields spread out under the song of the cicadas. In the distance, the village church tower stood alone. A human being would have had difficulty seeing the roofs, but Emmanuelle could discern every tile and every stone that had survived the ages. She could not hide anything from her surrogate father and felt a lump of emotion rise in her throat. "I am completely lost..." she whispered. On the other side of the globe, Augustine immediately tensed up. The handle of t
Red Moon 30-2: good soul
Emmanuelle had to clench her teeth not to shout at her substitute father's confession to her. "What do you mean, you do not know anything about it? Are you making fun of me? Is that the reason you never introduced yourself to her? Is this the odious reason why you never travel in person to meet me anymore? Is that why I am always the one to come to you?" "Emmanuelle...," called the Elder gently. "I am not listening! I cannot listen to you when I have heard you tell me for centuries that our loved ones are the most precious thing to us!" she said, cutting him off. She felt a black rage take hold of her. Everything made horrible sense now. "This is why you chose me. That's why you started to have the same diet as me. From the beginning, it was not for my sake, for the love of me, as you so often told me. You knew that your beloved was going to be born. Who else but me would have been better able to care for her safety while she grew up and matured? Who else but me would have given yo
Red Moon 31-1: unworthy
(At the same time, Emmanuelle was making a phone call to Augustin). Harry had come down the steps. His step was heavy with the cry of his wolf. The last words spoken by his Mate continued to echo in his mind like a funeral oration. Everything was hurting him. His skin burned, and his eyes heated under the tears he held back as best he could. And he kept stretching and relaxing his fingers in order to get rid of the tension in his joints._Mate... Mate chased us away because she couldn't think when she was around us. Mate doesn't want us around, and we only make Mate unhappy. We are not worthy of Mate," Till kept repeating in Harry's mind. The young Alpha finally reached the bottom of the stairs, where he met Bianca. The young woman held a silver tray with steaming cups of coffee in her hands. She looked at him in surprise before leaning forward to Harry. "Is everything okay?" she asked, concern audible in her voice. Harry sat up and nodded slowly. Bianca squinted her eyes and r
Red Moon 31-2: unworthy
Harry had spent several minutes in silence after receiving the call from his Beta. He and his wolf were now in the midst of an internal debate. What should they do? What to choose? Why choose? His Alpha DNA was screaming at him to get back to his pack and put an end to the prowler's threats. It was intolerable for him to know that his status was once again being questioned. He'd had to prove himself, day after day, to prove himself worthy of his rank as Alpha. He had never given up, drowning his grief at the loss of his parents in the violent, painful training he was subjected to every day. Another part of him begged him to stay until they could finally mark their soul mates. Then he and Emmanuelle could return to their pack and live in harmony. But what would his Mate say when she saw, no sooner had she arrived in the Red Moon pack, that Harry's position as Alpha was already under threat? Harry had hidden his face in his hands. What's more, his chest felt crushed un
Red Moon 32-1: fighting for what?
(Harry)The Red Moon Alpha was soon on his way home. However, his journey had taken triple the time allowed for, as he'd first had to take the dwarves' underground routes before reaching the nearest unblocked elven portal.Harry had kept his teeth clenched and systematically cracked his knuckles whenever his path had crossed that of a dwarf.Despite his affection for Marguerite and Ambroise, Harry now harbored a deep hatred for those of the dwarf race.What's more, the young Alpha was worried about his animal side. Indeed, the second they had moved away from their Mate, Till had withdrawn into a stony silence.There was nothing wrong with a wolf not communicating with its human side. But it was surprising that Till was so silent. He was usually a friendly wolf and always happy to speak with Harry.In fact, for a time, the red wolf had even taken Harry's place. Till had had complete control of their bodies for a whole week. Such had been the shock of losing their parents that the

Connor recoiled slightly at Harry's words. Then he shook his head as if seeking to physically refuse his pack leader's explanation."What? You did not bring her here because of a fucking lurker? You can't be serious," the Beta retorted in a whisper.Harry had kept his head down. His soul mate's words were still circling like a morbid melody in his mind."You can't understand," Harry growled in Connor's direction. Talking about his soul mate had brought to the surface the fears he had harbored since finding his Mate. As a result, his senses were heightened even more than usual.The Red Moon Alpha was already furious that his status was still questioned. The estrangement from his Mate greatly heightened his level of aggression. And, finally, the fact that his actions were being questioned was yet another insult."I can't understand if you do not put what is going on into words," Connor retorted, throwing up his arms in defeat.Connor was well aware of his Alpha's state of irritatio
