Darius’s POV

I didn’t want to be the kind of man who tortured people for information.

But watching Laura smirk from her chair, knowing she’d murdered Magnus in cold blood and was protecting Sarah while my daughter was God knows where… something inside me broke.

“Last chance to do this the easy way,” I said quietly.

Laura just smiled. “There is no easy way.”

Thomas looked at me, waiting for permission. I gave a single nod.

It took three hours before she finally screamed the location through bro

  • Runaway Luna Rider   204: The Curtain Draws

    Kiera’s POV Sarah’s death brought something like relief.Not the kind that made me happy. More like the exhausted feeling after finally setting down something heavy I’ve been carrying too long. She was gone. Margaret was safe. The pack doctor had examined her thoroughly… dehydrated, underweight, but recovering quickly with proper care and feeding. She was too young to understand what had happened. Too young to remember her mother holding her over a cliff’s edge.Maybe that was a mercy.But Darius was struggling.I could feel it through the mate bond… this weight pressing down on him, different from the usual alpha responsibilities.I found him three nights after Sarah’s death, standing in Margaret’s room. The baby slept peacefully in her crib, wrapped in soft blankets, her tiny chest rising and falling with each breath.He just stood there, watching her.“Hey,” I said softly, entering the room.Darius didn’t turn. “She looks like him sometimes. Like Lucian.”I moved to stand beside

  • Runaway Luna Rider   203: Sarah’s Death

    Darius’s POV Margaret slipped from Sarah’s hands.I didn’t think. My body just moved.The alpha speed that came with my bloodline kicked in… everything around me slowed to a crawl. I saw Margaret’s tiny body tumbling through the air, her mouth open in a silent cry. Saw the rocks below, jagged and unforgiving.I launched myself forward.My legs pushed off the cathedral floor with enough force to crack the stone beneath me. I flew through the air, arms outstretched, every muscle straining to close the distance.Time snapped back to normal speed.I caught her.My hands closed around her small body just as my back slammed into the cathedral wall. The impact drove all air from my lungs. Pain exploded across my spine, ribs cracking from the force.But I had her.Margaret wailed in my arms, terrified but alive. I cradled her against my chest, curling my body around hers protectively as I slid down the wall and hit the ground hard.For several seconds, I couldn’t move or breathe. Just held h

  • Runaway Luna Rider   202: The Fall

    Kiera’s POV Time moved wrong when Sarah stood there with Margaret dangling over that drop, and my entire body locked up. The artifact burned against my skin, screaming at me to act, to do something, to save her.But I couldn’t move. One wrong step and Sarah’s hands would open. One flash of power from the artifact and she’d startle. One mistake and Margaret would fall.So I stood there, frozen, while my daughter cried in the arms of a woman who’d lost her mind.“Sarah, please.” Darius’s voice was steady despite the terror I could feel radiating through our bond. “Whatever you want, we’ll make it happen. Just step back from the edge.”“What I want?” Sarah turned to look at him, and even from this distance I could see the madness in her eyes. “You think you can give me what I want?”“Yes. Freedom. We’ll let you leave. Exile instead of imprisonment. You can go anywhere, start over…”“Start over?” She laughed, high and broken. “As what? The disgraced Luna who tried to murder children? The

I gave a single nod.It took three hours before she finally screamed the location through broken sobs.“The cathedral! The old Blackhowl cathedral ruins!”I grabbed her by the collar. “Where Lucien died?”“Yes! There are passages beneath it, tunnels we mapped months ago. Sarah’s been hiding there since she took Margaret. I was supposed to keep you searching everywhere else.”I released her, stepping back. My hands were shaking. Not from exertion… from the effort it took not to kill her right there.“Lock her up,” I told Thomas. “Increase the security. If she escapes again, I’m holding y

  • Runaway Luna Rider   200: Laura’s Plan

    Kiera’s POV The clock on the wall read eleven forty-seven when I realized Magnus’s team was late.They were supposed to check in every two hours. It had been two hours and thirty-four minutes since the last report.I tried not to panic. Communication in neutral territory could be spotty. Trees interfered with signals. They could be in a dead zone, unable to get through.But my instincts screamed otherwise.“Thomas,” I called across the command center. “Take a team and find Magnus’s group. Now.”He didn’t question it, just gathered six wolves and left immediately. Darius watched them go, his jaw tight.“They’re probably fine,” he said. But he didn’t sound convinced.I nodded, not trusting my voice. The artifact was warm beneath my shirt, not burning but present. It felt wrong too.The hours that followed were torture. I coordinated other search parties, reviewed maps, did everything I could to stay focused. But my mind kept drifting to Margaret.When Thomas finally returned, the look

  • Runaway Luna Rider   199: The Search

    Darius’s POV I’d run these trails a thousand times in my life. Knew every tree, stream, and hidden path. But now, searching for my daughter, the territory felt foreign. Like it was deliberately hiding her from me.“Alpha, tracks here,” one of the scouts called from my left. “Recent, human barefoot.”I jogged over, my wolf straining to break free and just run, search everywhere at once. But I needed to stay controlled.The footprints were small, definitely female. Leading toward the old storage sheds we’d abandoned years ago.“Sweep the area,” I ordered. “Move quiet. If Sarah’s there, we don’t want to spook her into doing something stupid.”The team fanned out. I moved toward the sheds with Thomas at my side, every nerve on edge. Behind us, Laura shuffled forward in her shackles, two guards flanking her.“This was one of her spots,” Laura said quietly. “When she and Lucien were meeting secretly. She felt safe here.”We reached the first shed. Door hanging off its hinges. Inside: nothi
