Cole’s POV

"Is love going to do this to you!?" My father’s voice shattered the heavy silence like a blade slicing through still air.

His face twisted in fury, veins standing out on his temple as his words lashed out at me. "I don’t know what’s gotten into you lately. I’ve already turned a blind eye to your infatuation with that girl, allowed you to parade her around like she’s someone of importance. And still, you have the audacity to act as if she could ever be your Luna?"

His words roared through the room, the sound crashing against the walls like thunder. The fury in his expression was nearly unholy, his dark eyes gleaming with something sharp and unforgiving.

I clenched my jaw, standing rigid, feeling the familiar weight of his disappointment bear down on me. It wasn’t just disappointment, it was a warning, a reminder of my place. I had no illusions. I would remain under his command until the day he drew his final breath.

"And do you want to know the most laughable part?" he added

  • Scarred By The Moon   Chapter 45: “The Letter That Changes Everything”

    Adrian’s POVNo matter how hard Alaina tries to distance herself, each attempt only deepens the hold she has over me. Her resistance is like fuel to a fire I can’t put out, pushing me to prove that I can break through the walls she’s built, that I can conquer every challenge standing between us.Blaze, my wolf, hates that I’m obsessed with her, arguing that it isn’t worth the risk. But Blaze doesn’t understand the way Alaina Meyers affects me. She isn’t just another conquest. She’s the one woman who makes me feel alive.Today, I noticed her receiving a letter, and for some reason, I couldn’t shake the feeling that it mattered. Normally, I wouldn’t give a second thought to her mail, but this time, it felt personal, urgent, like whatever was written inside was meant to change something.And somehow, I couldn’t help but think it might involve me.I didn’t want to doubt her, didn’t want to let suspicion creep in, but my mind wouldn’t let

  • Scarred By The Moon   Chapter 44: “Don’t Start What You Can’t Finish”

    Alaina’s POVThinking back to my conversation with Adrian and Grace, I couldn’t shake the feeling that life was shifting around me, nudging me toward something bigger. Our talk had stirred something deep within, a reminder that I could still grow, still choose a different path. I made a quiet promise to myself that day: I would leave behind the shadows of the past and focus on the future waiting for me.Grace’s commitment to taking care of herself left a mark on me. Even while wrestling with her pain, she still chose herself, still chose her wolf. I admired that about her, and I promised her silently that I would be there in any way she needed, that she wouldn’t have to face the world alone.Then there was Adrian. Complicated, magnetic Adrian. I told myself that no matter how tangled our history was, I would keep our interactions strictly professional. I couldn’t afford to let my guard down, not now.So when I walked into the kitchen that mor

  • Scarred By The Moon   Chapter 43: “A Letter She Won’t See Coming”

    Cole’s POVTension had settled over the pack like a dark cloud ever since my father’s departure. His warning echoed in my mind, a constant reminder of the expectations he had left behind. If Alaina wasn’t standing by my side as Luna when he returned, I would face consequences I wasn’t ready to pay.Even as the weight of his words loomed, Grace and I were pushing forward with our own plans, weaving them carefully through the chaos that had become our daily existence. Yet, my focus kept shifting toward Freya.Lately, there was something different about her, something she kept hidden behind forced smiles and empty reassurances. She moved like a shadow through the pack grounds, avoiding questions, avoiding me. That was until I found her in the Royal’s garden, deep in hushed conversation with one of the warriors.The moment she noticed me approaching, the warrior slipped away like smoke, leaving her standing there, startled and pale under the moon

  • Scarred By The Moon   Chapter 42: "I'll Always Get You"

    Alaina’s POVI slipped quietly into the Whispering Grove, hoping to clear my mind and find a moment of peace among the rustling leaves and soft birdsong. But as soon as I stepped under the canopy of swaying branches, I froze.Grace was there, sitting on a weathered bench beneath a weeping willow, her shoulders shaking as tears streamed down her cheeks. She looked so small, so fragile in that moment, that I felt something inside me tighten.“Grace,” I called softly, my voice carrying my concern before I even reached her.She didn’t look up, but her trembling intensified as I hurried over and knelt in front of her, taking her cold, shaking hands into mine. I could see how her tears left wet trails down her pale face, and my chest ached at the sight.“What happened?” I asked gently, keeping my voice calm as I squeezed her hands. “Talk to me, Grace.”She leaned forward, pressing her forehead against my shoulder as sobs wracked her body. I ran my hand slowly through her hair, whispering, “

  • Scarred By The Moon   Chapter 41: "If I Were to Change for You..."

    Adrian – POVThere’s something calming about talking to Grace. Our conversations are light, sometimes even silly, but they distract me from the chaos in my head. And if I’m being honest, I also use these chats to learn more about Alaina Meyers. I know it’s manipulative, but Grace is my easiest path to understanding the woman who’s slowly consuming my thoughts.I’m already waiting in the library when Grace walks in, her footsteps barely audible over the quiet rustling of pages and the distant ticking of the old grandfather clock. The smell of aged paper fills the air, grounding me in this peaceful bubble where the world can't intrude.Grace is the only one allowed in this bubble.As she enters, I lift my eyes from the book on my lap and smile at her."What kept you?" I ask, pretending it didn’t matter, though I was watching the clock the entire time."I was with Alaina," she says casually, but her words hit harder than they should. My pulse skips, my chest tightens. Just hearing Alaina

  • Scarred By The Moon   Chapter 40: She's Not Someone Who Can Just Be Chosen

    Adrian's POV After wrapping up a light conversation with Grace, I made my way into the conference room. The air inside was thick with unspoken opinions, and the weight of responsibility settled comfortably on my shoulders as I sat before my beta, gamma, and the council of elders. Elder Drevyn’s voice broke the silence, deep and commanding. "You’ve rarely ever sought our counsel, Alpha Adrian, yet your leadership speaks volumes," he said with pride. "Our people call you the epitome of a true alpha." I offered him a modest smile, but inside, I felt a deep stir of gratitude. It meant something—coming from them. “I called this meeting because I need your perspective on something important,” I began, scanning their familiar faces. “Should we move forward and seal the alliance with the Huntington Pack along the coast?” A beat passed before Elder Mora leaned forward, narrowing his eyes. “And what’s your opinion, Adrian?” “I’ve given it a lot of thought,” I answered. “I’ve talked
