Kiera's POV

The Harley's engine purred beneath me as I moved from the dark mountain roads leading to Black Howl territory. Three in the morning, and the world was painted in shades of silver and shadow under the full moon. Perfect hunting weather, my wolf whispered, stirring restlessly in my chest after years of forced dormancy.

I'd left the Steel Vultures compound while everyone slept, leaving only a brief note for Sable explaining where I'd gone. Not why, I wasn't sure I understood that myself. Maybe it was the memory of Eli's claws extending for the first time, the way his eyes had glowed gold with inherited power or it was the knowledge that every day we delayed meant more danger for the people who'd become my family, or I was just tired of running.

The turnoff to the old Ironfang territory came up faster than I remembered, marked now by a new sign: "Black Howl MC - Private Property." The familiar scents hit me as soon as I cut the engine, leather, motor oil, and underneath it a

  • Runaway Luna Rider   065: The Warning

    Kiera’s POV I walked out of the council hall, my legs carrying me forward like a force behind me while my mind tried to process what I’d just agreed to. Behind me, I heard Darius’s footsteps following, steady and persistent.Magnus waited outside, leaning against the building with that casual confidence he always wore like armor. His pale eyes found mine as I approached, and something like satisfaction flickered across his face.I stopped directly in front of him. Darius stayed back, maintaining distance but close enough that I could feel his presence. His gaze burned into my back, heavy with things he wanted to say but couldn’t.Magnus smiled, opening his mouth to speak.My fist connected with his face before words could form. The impact sent his head snapping to the side, blood immediately welling at the corner of his mouth.Magnus chuckled, the sound rough and somehow amused. “Well, that’s one way to say hello.”“That’s for what you did to me.” My voice was steady despite the rage

  • Runaway Luna Rider   064: The Breaking Point

    Sarah’s POV I collapsed on the floor of my room, my body folding in on itself like something without bones. The cold stone pressed against my cheek, but I barely felt it. Everything inside me had gone numb weeks ago, when Marcus stopped breathing in my arms. Now Lucien was gone too. Dead by his own brother’s claws. I’d loved Darius more than I’d ever loved Lucien. That truth sat in my chest like a stone I couldn’t swallow. Darius had been everything I’d wanted from the moment I first saw him, powerful, commanding, beautiful in the way alphas were beautiful. But he’d never looked at me the way I needed him to. Never saw me as a woman, only as a convenience. A surrogate. A political arrangement. Lucien had been my comfort when Darius’s indifference became too painful to bear. He’d touched me like I mattered, whispered words that made me feel wanted even if they were lies. I’d tried so hard to prove my love to Darius, to make him see me, to become the Luna he needed. But it had never

  • Runaway Luna Rider   063: The Luna Challenge

    Kiera’s POV I walked into the council hall with Magnus at my side, and I knew exactly how I looked. Battered. Exhausted. Covered in dirt and blood from escaping the Broker’s domain. My clothes were torn, my hair a tangled mess, bruises darkening across every visible inch of skin.I’d barely made it to Magnus’s territory when word reached him about Darius’s trial. The news had come through his pack network, urgent and terrible. An alpha being stripped of his position. Exile to the human world.I’d had no choice but to trust Magnus’s guards with Eli, leaving my son in their protection while I rushed here. The decision tore at my heart, but what else could I do? Darius was the father of my child, and no matter what stood between us, I couldn’t let him face this alone.Every eye in the hall turned toward me. Whispers exploded across the space like wildfire, the sound building until it felt like being surrounded by bees.I could see maids pressed against windows outside, their faces eager

  • Runaway Luna Rider   062: The Judgment

    Darius’s POV The pack territory felt different when I rode through the gates. Colder somehow, despite the afternoon sun. Like the land itself knew what was coming.Thomas ran toward me before I’d even dismounted, his face pale with worry. Blood covered his hands, though whether it was his or someone else’s, I couldn’t tell.“Alpha, are you okay?” His words tumbled out in a rush. “We didn’t know what Elder Morrigan did to us. We just lost consciousness and we couldn’t wake up.”“I’m fine.” The lie came automatically, though my body told a different story. Every muscle ached from the fight with Lucien, from the poison that had weakened me, from days of chaos that felt like years.“The Council of Elders has been in a rage.” Thomas kept pace as I walked toward the main hall. “They’ve been asking for you constantly. Demanding to know where you were.”I stopped, looking at my beta. My friend. “I’m ready for them.”The council hall’s doors stood open, an invitation that felt more like a sum

  • Runaway Luna Rider   061: The Escape Through Blood

    Kiera’s POV My eyes opened slowly, consciousness dragging me up from darkness that felt safer than waking. Every part of my body ached, bruises layering on bruises, exhaustion settling into my bones like permanent weight.Then I saw it.A head. Positioned directly in my line of sight, impossible to miss. The woman who’d helped me, who’d given me the map and whispered hope when I had none. Her eyes were open, empty, staring at nothing. Blood matted her gray hair, dried in dark streaks down what remained of her neck. An arrow pierced through her skull, the shaft standing straight up like some grotesque monument. They’d placed her there deliberately, made sure she’d be the first thing I saw.The message was clear. Crystal clear. This is what happens to people who betray the Broker.A gasp tore from my throat before I could stop it. Shock crashed over me, followed immediately by horror so complete it made my stomach turn. I wanted to look away but couldn’t, frozen by the sight of kindnes

  • Runaway Luna Rider   060: Blood and Vengeance

    Darius’s POV The slap came so fast I barely registered Jack’s movement. His hand connected with Magnus’s face with a crack that echoed through the burnt room.Magnus chuckled, his tongue darting out to lick blood from the corner of his mouth. “Nice blow.”“I’m going to rip off your mouth,” Jack snarled, leaning close to Magnus’s face. “Cut off your head just like you did to Sable.”“Don’t waste time talking about it.” Magnus’s smile didn’t falter despite the blood staining his teeth. “Kill me already.”Jack’s weathered face twisted with hatred. “Stop wasting your time finding Kiera. I’m going to kill her with my own hands.”“Jack.” Elder Morrigan’s voice cut through the tension. “Go outside and wait. If I need anything, though I doubt I will, I’ll call you.”Jack looked at us one last time, that smirk still plastered on his face, then walked out. The door closed behind him with finality.“What do you want to gain from all this?” I demanded, anger making my voice shake. “You’re a Coun
