Night had fallen. And for the first time since leaving the settlement, I realized there was really no place in sight.

I had nowhere safe to sleep.

I had no idea how long I had been walking, I was desperately looking for a place to spend the night badly before it gets too dark.

My feet were burning, my back ached, and every step made my swollen legs feel heavier. I was almost ready to sit beneath a tree and spend the night there when I noticed something between the trees.

  • THE SPARE LUNA   Chapter 51 – MISCARRIAGE

    Back at the Blackridge family Elena woke to another morning with pain twisting through her stomach.She slowly opened her eyes and stared at the ceiling. For the past few weeks, her life had changed completely. She was no longer treated like an ordinary maid. Healers visited her every morning. She was given special meals, medicine, and strict instructions about what she could and could not do.But none of it made her feel safe.She remembered the Luna’s warning.‘You may not survive the pregnancy.’Elena placed a trembling hand over her stomach. “Please,” she whispered. “Let my baby live.”The door opened. A healer entered with two assistants behind her.“How are you feeling today?” the healer asked.“I’m tired.”“Any pain?”“A little.”The healer frowned. “Where?”“Here.”Elena pointed to her lower stomach.The healer examined her carefully before placing a hand against her abdomen.“The pain is stronger than yesterday.”Elena looked worried. “Is something wrong?”“We need to keep w

  • THE SPARE LUNA   Chapter 50 – THE BIRTH

    My labor had started.And I was completely alone.Another contraction tore through me before I could even think. I grabbed the side of the shelter and squeezed my eyes shut.“Please,” I whispered. “Please, let me do this.”The pain only grew stronger.I reached for the piece of cloth I had prepared and pushed it between my teeth. I couldn’t scream. Not here. Not with unknown wolves somewhere beyond the trees who might hear and come for me.I bit down as another contraction came.Tears ran down my face. My whole body shook. “Come on, Malia,” I whispered through clenched teeth. “You can do this.”The pain eased for a moment. I breathed slowly, trying to gather enough strength for the next one.There was no one to hold my hand. No one to tell me what to do.No healer. No midwife. Only me and the child I had promised to protect.Another contraction came. I cried into the cloth. Hours passed. I lost track of time.Sometimes I thought I couldn’t take another minute, but then another wave ca

  • THE SPARE LUNA   Chapter 49 – ALONE

    I barely slept that night.Every time another howl came from the forest, I tightened my grip on the knife and stared at the cabin door.Something about those sounds frightened me.I had survived Blackridge. I had survived being rejected by the settlement. I had survived walking through the forest while carrying a child.But those howls were different. They made me feel like I was being watched.When morning finally came, I packed my things.I didn’t wait.I wrapped Mara’s cloak around me, picked up my bag, and stepped outside.The forest looked peaceful again.That almost made it worse.I looked back at the cabin.“I’m sorry,” I whispered. “But I can’t stay here.”I had no idea what had made the cabin’s previous owner leave, and I wasn’t interested in finding out.I walked deeper into the neutral land.I stayed away from roads, paths, and anything that looked like it had been used by other wolves. I needed a place where nobody would find me.By midday, my legs were already aching.I r

    Night had fallen. And for the first time since leaving the settlement, I realized there was really no place in sight. I had nowhere safe to sleep. I had no idea how long I had been walking, I was desperately looking for a place to spend the night badly before it gets too dark. My feet were burning, my back ached, and every step made my swollen legs feel heavier. I was almost ready to sit beneath a tree and spend the night there when I noticed something between the trees. A small wooden cabin. I stopped. For a moment, I thought my tired eyes were playing tricks on me. I walked closer. The cabin looked abandoned. One of the windows was broken, and vines covered part of the walls. The door was hanging slightly open. I pushed it carefully. The smell of dust and old wood filled my nose. There was no one inside. I stepped in and closed the door behind me. It wasn’t much, but it was better than sleeping outside. There was a small fireplace, an old wooden table, and a narrow bed c

  • THE SPARE LUNA   Chapter 47 – FORCED OUT

    I was still lost in thoughts when someone suddenly spoke from the crowd. “I need you to leave before nightfall.” The words hit me harder than the cold wind outside. I looked at the settlement leader standing in front of me. “Leave?” He nodded. “Tonight?” “Yes.” Lydia stepped forward immediately. “You can’t be serious.” “We have no choice.” “There has to be another way.” “There isn’t.” Lydia pointed toward the crowd. “She has lived here for months. She has done nothing to anyone.” The leader looked at her. “And we are not blaming her for anything.” “Then why are you throwing her out?” “Because of Blackridge.” The name silenced everyone. He continued, “If Blackridge discovers Malia is here, they will come looking for her. We cannot risk the entire settlement.” “She has nowhere to go,” Lydia said. “That is unfortunate.” My chest tightened. Unfortunate. That was all I was now. I looked at Lydia. She was fighting back tears, and somehow that hurt more than the angry f

  • THE SPARE LUNA   Chapter 46 – MALIA HAS BEEN DISCOVERED

    Back at the settlement pack. The man outside spoke again. “Malia, we need to speak with you.”“About my child?” I asked.“Yes.”I swallowed. There was no way to hide my pregnancy anymore. But I had no idea why they had become interested in it.Lydia reached for my hand. “Whatever happens, stay calm.”I nodded.Slowly, I walked toward the door. Lydia stayed beside me as I pulled it open.Several people stood outside.Men and women from the settlement filled the space in front of my room. Some looked worried. Others looked angry. The man who had knocked stood at the front.“What is this about?” I asked.His eyes dropped to my stomach. “We need answers.”“About what?”“The father of your child.”My fingers tightened around the edge of the door. “I told you, there is nothing to discuss.”A woman stepped forward. “There is. You have been living among us for months, and none of us knows who you are and now you are carrying a child?”“I didn’t think it was anyone’s business.”“It became ou
