Two days later.

A whirl of activity filled the cave. Old supplies were being packed or thrown away for the lengthy journey ahead, bags were being tied and folded. Clothes were being stacked into satchels.

With a common goal in mind, Lance, Lira Bethar, and Selene moved around. Their footsteps echoing off the stone walls.

The charged atmosphere was strangely calmed by someone softly humming an old song.

Selene folded a blanket, stuffing it into a big sack.

Across from her Lira was fastening her last bag's straps. She grunted softly as she pulled the cord taut and stood up straight.

Her eyes landed on Bethar who was nearby organizing supplies and weapons.

“So tell me, Father, what is it like in Ridgewood?” she said after a brief pause.

Bethar stopped. Stunned, his eyes went wide. She had never called him that before. “The pack has beautiful scenery. It's filled with lovely people. Don't worry, you'll get to see it for yourself.”

“Really? Is it?” Lira snorted. “I overheard your c

    “No!” Their collective scream rang out through the tense air. A chilling sound of fear that Lira could hear in her ears but she had a firm resolve.Their eyes glazed in panic as they all stared at her and the gleaming dagger she was holding in her shaking hand.Every breath was held captive by the horrifying scene as the air crackled with a silent desperation. Bethar appeared to be about to pass out, his face pale with horror.His wide shoulders, which are typically so firm and comforting, appeared to sag under an unseen burden. His gaze seemed to be fixed on a stranger as he gazed at his only child, his beloved Lira. His heart was threatened to stop completely by the terrifying picture of her about to hurt herself. “ Please Lira,” he begged in a whisper that could hardly be heard over the racing pounding of his own heart. “Anything you want, I'll do. Just drop the dagger.” Normally full of fierce protectiveness his eyes now swam with a pleading, desperate sorrow. He reached out t

    At the sight of him, Selene and Ethan halted their training. The rhythmic sounds of their practice had just a moment before filled the air but now there was an unsaid tension in the air. At the edge of the clearing, Lira's father, Bethar, stood. His daughter was the center of his attention and his face was a mix of worry and mounting annoyance. Lira whirled around, her eyes blazing with a fierce rage that seemed to ignite the air itself. She spoke sharply and bitterly as she glared at her father. She broke the silence by demanding in a harsh voice. “What do you want?” Already flushed, Bethar's face turned red. His jaw clenched as he clearly struggled to keep his temper. Before speaking he inhaled deeply to regain his composure. His tone attempted to show a composed authority that hardly concealed his rage. “I am your father, Lira,” he said, maintaining a fixed stare. “You will speak to me with respect.”Lira scoffed. A sneer curled her lips. With a tone full of sarcasm she shot

    In anger, Estelle slammed her door. The sound, a harsh punctuation mark to her rage, echoed through the silent hallways. With a raw guttural scream that ripped from her throat, she threw everything on her dressing mirror away with a frantic arm sweep. A fragile perfume bottle shattered against the wall, its aroma blending with the pungent odor of her rage. A silver brush clattered to the ground and then jewelry fell like a waterfall. Her fists clenched, knuckles white, and shaking.As though she had run a long race, her chest heaved and she started breathing heavily. She had a dangerous fire burning in her eyes which were normally sparkling with craftiness. His daughter was more important to him than she was. In her mind, the idea was a poisonous sting. He used to devote all of his time to her. Giving her every look, every word, and every moment. However, his focus has been split ever since that brat entered the house. It felt torn from her rather than merely divided. She heard

  • THE FORSAKEN LUNA; Moonfire Reborn   Chapter 155; His Daughter's Safety

    The great silence of Bethar's magnificent living room was filled with the sound of his footsteps. He paced like a lion in a cage. His every step was a desperate, physical expression of the chaos roiling inside of him. One terrible question consumed his mind, a whirlwind of terrifying possibilities: Where was she? He saw his maid Meredith standing in front of him, her eyes wide with a fear that reflected his own, her lips quivering.“ What do you mean she's nowhere to be found!” his own voice unfiltered and tinged with growing panic, continued to reverberate in the silent room.With every minute that went by, the fear only grew stronger. He had hurried to her room holding onto the irrational and desperate hope that Meredith was just lying. Yet no. In place of his daughter's lively presence, the room had been deserted, eerily quiet. And most of her possessions were missing. Her favorite books, the fragile items she treasured, and multiple changes of clothes from her closet were all

    The dining room’s tall windows let in the soft golden morning sun which warmed the polished mahogany table. Meredith arranged the final breakfast dishes with care, her movements fluid and well-practiced. A steaming pot of coffee, a bowl of gleaming fresh fruit, and plates of fluffy pancakes were arranged invitingly. Rich coffee, sweet syrup, and a savory aroma from the kitchen filled the air with the aroma of the meal. Bethar sat at the head of the table, but his eyes were far away, deep in concentration. The faint aroma of the food and the soft clinking of the dishes gradually brought him back. He heard a soft sound of footsteps approaching just as he was about to grab the coffee pot. He raised his head, his gaze rising to the doorway. As Estelle entered the dining room. A lovely smile appeared on her lips. Her silk gown shimmered softly in the morning light as she moved with exquisite grace. She was carrying a tray in her hands which she balanced carefully. As she looked di

  • THE FORSAKEN LUNA; Moonfire Reborn   Chapter 153; To Be A Spy

    Lira stood in the doorway, her heart hammering frantically against her ribs. She felt like a little mouse trapped in the lion's den, an intruder. A mixture of fear and an unaccustomed thrill sent a chill down her spine. Was she really going to do this? Her eyes, initially apprehensive, finally found Ethan, the man in the room. His quiet, coiled power filled the room, and he was a formidable presence.He stared at her with his piercing eyes as though she were a pest who had interrupted their important conversation. He gave the impression that he was prepared to dismiss her, to make her vanish. With a sharp swallow Lira's throat became suddenly dry. Unspoken words and growing tension made the room's air feel heavy and thick. A stubborn resolve started to grow inside her despite the fear. She hesitantly moved forward, then took another step until she was completely in the room and ready for whatever was about to happen. In the tense silence, Lira choked out. “I overheard your conv
