Darius's POV

The coffee mug exploded against the wall, sending ceramic shards and hot liquid spraying across my office. Thomas didn't even flinch… after years as my beta, he'd learned to read the warning signs of my temper and position himself accordingly.

"Say that again," I growled, my wolf clawing at my chest like a caged animal desperate for freedom.

"Magnus Veyra paid a visit to the Steel Vultures compound three hours ago." Thomas's voice was carefully controlled, professional, but I could smell the concern radiating off him. "He made offers to her but… she refused them."

The words hit me like physical blows, each one stoking the fire building in my chest. Magnus. That platinum-haired bastard had dared to approach my mate, my son, on territory I was already claiming as mine.

"What kind of offers?" I forced the words through gritted teeth.

Thomas consulted his phone, reading from the message our human spy had sent. "First, he offered to take the boy and protect them both from you

    Kiera's POVOne Month Later "What the hell is this supposed to mean?"Jack's gravelly voice carried barely contained rage as he slammed the blood-stained paper onto the makeshift conference table. The letter had arrived three hours ago, delivered by a dead Crimson Howler scout who'd been found hanging from our radio antenna like a grotesque wind chime.The message was simple, direct, and terrifying: ‘The Hidden Luna will bow or burn. Her bastard son will serve one way or another. Seven nights remain.’ ~MagnusI stared at the red-brown stains marking the edges of the paper, trying not to think about whose blood Magnus had used to seal his ultimatum. Seven nights. Seven days to prepare for whatever nightmare he was planning."It means we're out of time," I said quietly, though my wolf snarled inside my chest at Magnus's choice of words. ‘Bastard son.’ As if Eli's legitimacy could be questioned when his bloodline ran truer than any pure-bred pack heir's."This came to us too," Thomas sa

  • Runaway Luna Rider   019: The Hidden Luna

    Kiera's POV "This place gives me the creeps."Tommy's voice carried across the desert wind as we surveyed our new home, a collection of weathered buildings scattered around what had once been a truck stop, now serving as a graveyard for broken-down motorcycles and broken-down dreams. Rusted Harleys and choppers stood like metal tombstones in the sand, their chrome dulled by decades of wind and neglect."Good," I said, checking the sight lines from the main building to the perimeter. "Creepy means people stay away. Private means we can see trouble coming from miles off."We'd been here three days now, ever since the police investigation and insurance claims had made the old compound uninhabitable. Jack had remembered this place from his younger days… an outlaw sanctuary from the eighties, abandoned when its owner died and left no heirs. It wasn't much, but it was ours, and more importantly, it was defensible."The water situation's better than I thought," Sable reported, emerging from

  • Runaway Luna Rider   018: Mother's Threat

    Kiera's POV The silence that followed was deafening. Around us, both groups of supernatural predators and human outlaws waited to see which way this confrontation would break.Finally, Darius nodded slowly, something that looked like resignation settling over his features."I can't force you to come home," he said quietly. "But I can't protect you from a distance all the time. Magnus will be back, and when he comes, he won't make the same mistakes twice.""Then we'll be ready.""Will you?" His voice carried genuine concern now, the alpha mask slipping to reveal the man underneath. "Will you really be ready to watch more of them die? To explain to our son why the humans he calls family keep disappearing?"That hit deeper than any threat could have. Because he was right. Tonight had been a second proof of how fragile human allies were against supernatural enemies. How much blood could I accept on my hands before the cost became too high?"That's my choice to make," I said finally. "Min

  • Runaway Luna Rider   017: The Alpha's Demand

    Kiera's POV The rumble of engines cut through the night like thunder, drowning out the distant sirens. But these weren't human motorcycles… I knew that sound, had heard it in my nightmares for five years. The synchronized growl of the Black Howl pack, riding in formation like a supernatural cavalry."Shit!," Sable breathed, raising her rifle instinctively. "More wolves.""No," I said quietly, my enhanced senses picking out familiar scents on the wind. "These are different."Through the smoke and flickering flames, I watched them pour into the compound… at least thirty Black Howl riders, their bikes forming a protective perimeter around the remaining Crimson Howler stragglers. What followed wasn't a battle so much as an execution. Darius's wolves moved with clinical precision, hunting down Magnus's forces with the efficiency of predators who'd done this dance many times before.It was over in minutes. The few surviving Crimson Howlers who weren't already dead or dying fled into the ni

  • Runaway Luna Rider   016: Fire and Claws

    Kiera's POV The first explosion shattered every window in the clubhouse and sent me sprawling across the garage floor. My ears rang as debris rained down around me, chunks of concrete and twisted metal that had been part of the compound wall moments before."Eli!" I scrambled to my feet, my enhanced hearing cutting through the chaos to find his heartbeat. There… under the workbench where I'd taught him to hide, curled in a ball with his hands over his ears."I'm okay, Mama!" His voice was shaky but strong. Good boy. Stay low, stay hidden.Outside, the night erupted in gunfire and inhuman roars. Through the smoke and flickering light of spreading flames, I could see crimson and black shapes moving through our compound like deadly shadows. The Crimson Howlers had come calling, and they hadn't bothered with pleasantries."Ghost!" Sable's voice cracked across the chaos as she rolled through the side door, assault rifle in her hands and blood streaming from a cut on her forehead. "They hi
