As I got back to work at the Den, sliding onto the pole under the dim, smoky lights, I was not just in the mood. Yes, my body went through the motions, but my head was still stuck in my mother’s journal. Every word I uncovered pulled me deeper into a storm I couldn’t shake. And Elliot, goddess, Elliot. His smug little invite to the bonfire still burned in my mind. Did he really think I would show up just because he said so? He probably wanted to parade his Fiancée Ariana in front of me, to watch him bless his future with her? just to rub it in. He must be out of his damn mind.

I wasn’t about to give him that satisfaction.

When my shift on stage ended, I headed straight for the bar. I ordered some Tequila; perks of the job, free shots. I downed them one after another until my thoughts blurred just enough. I just needed silence in my head, even for a moment.

That’s when Viktor came over.

“VIP request,” he said flatly. “Private client’s waiting.”

I groaned. I really wasn't in the mood b

  • THE LUNA OF PROPHECY    Chapter 10

    I got home and went straight to bed. The alcohol messed with my head, and I hadn’t gotten any real sleep.When I woke up late in the afternoon, I fixed some food immediately because I was so hungry. I decided to just stay at home today, thankfully, Viktor had given us the evening off for the Full moon bonfire ritual. I knew I should be there, but the thought of Elliot ruined it. If I went, it would look like I came because he asked... no, ordered me to. I decided I wasn’t going, I also wanted time to finish reading my mother’s journal.Then my phone rang. Sienna, of course. She always loved our nights at the bonfire, what will I tell her?“Hey,” she said, her voice was too cheerful. “How are you feeling?”“Tired. Not really in the mood for the bonfire tonight.”“No Li, You have to come,” she pressed. “It’ll lift your spirit. You know how it is, the hunt, the run, the blessing… it’s the best night of the month."I sighed. She wasn’t wrong, the bonfire was sacred. We turned together, hu

    I returned home exhausted. I took a quick bath, ate something small, and then curled into the coziness of my little bed. With eager hands, I quickly pulled out my mother's old journal and began to read.---Sapphire’s POVIt all started in my senior year at Lupine Academy, a school where rival packs were constantly at each other’s throats. Fights broke out so often, it was almost a routine, especially between the Silvermoon pack and the Blood moon pack, the two apex packs amongst the wolves. Their fights were legendary, All year, I had managed to avoid trouble. so I kept my head down. Unlike most of the other students in school, I was an orphan, adopted by a beta widow - My mother Elise, and I couldn’t afford the luxury of suspension or expulsion over petty pack rivalries.Despite everything, I had worked hard and risen to the top. I was my class valedictorian, my mum is so proud. And I wasn’t just a scholar; I was strong too. My mother, Elise, always said I had the heart of a warrior

    That evening when I got home, I couldn’t bring myself to tell Sienna everything that had happened. All I could say was that I needed to know my roots, that maybe it would answer the questions that had been weighing on me, she didn’t press further, she knew I would talk to her when I was ready, instead, she stayed by my side, quietly taking care of me the way she always did when words weren’t enough.The next morning, I went to the Den and told Viktor I would be taking some days off to visit my sick grandmother. He barely looked at me, his only response was that the days would be deducted from my pay. I didn’t care, money was the least of my worries.I traveled out to the countryside, to the little village where my grandmother lived. She wasn’t really my grandmother by blood. She had raised my mother, and in many ways she had raised me too, especially on the nights my mother worked late. When I arrived, I was struck by how much older she looked. Her shoulders seemed smaller, her movem

    No. She had to be wrong. Maybe she was fake after all, because that couldn’t be true. “You don’t believe me?” Selene asked, her voice soft but steady. I shook my head quickly. “No… it’s just...absurd. I’m not saying your visions are wrong, but there has to be a mistake. I wasn’t born of a rival pack. I’m just an ordinary Omega girl. I can’t be a Luna, let alone unite the packs.” Selene’s gaze didn’t waver. “Do you know the meaning of your name, Liora? It means light. You are meant to be a light in the darkness. It is your destiny. You are more powerful than you think.” Her words settled over me, heavy and impossible. I couldn’t answer. We both fell silent. My mind spun, trapped between disbelief and a fear I couldn’t name. Then footsteps echoed again. Elliot. The gate creaked open, but his demeanor was different this time, he was calmer. He looked at Gina first. “You can go,” he said flatly. “My men will escort you back to your home. But hear me, never show your face her

    I found myself in a cell. The air was damp and heavy, and the faint smell of iron clung to the walls. I wasn’t alone. She was there, the priestess girl. Gina. She was already awake, sitting across from me, her gaze fixed on me in a way that made me uneasy. “What is happening? Where are we?” I asked, my voice was unsteady. “Someone kidnapped us,” she replied calmly. “I knew you weren’t alone when you came. They followed you, they must have been watching you.” “Who? Who are they?” I pressed, but before she could answer, footsteps echoed down the corridor. A sudden flash of light cut through the darkness, and my heart sank. Elliot. He moved closer, the torchlight flickering across his sharp features. His expression hardened the moment his eyes fell on us. Without hesitation, he unlocked the door and stepped inside. “I knew it,” he said coldly, his voice laced with triumph. “You really are consorting with witches. I’ve caught you red-handed. Now you and your little witch friend will
