The urge to scream is overwhelming, but I tamp it down, breathing through my nose in a vain attempt to keep my heart from racing from my chest as my mind struggles to catch up to what my eyes are seeing and realize that the twisted puzzle of a man before me had once been a wolf.

Now, what is left of him is pieced together with wires, pulled apart and stretched thin. Pieces have been replaced, others removed, and all the while the wolf himself is left in some perversion of painful slumber, his brow permanently creased with both age and pain. Trapped between forms, his nude flesh is covered with patches of red fur and the small amount of hair remaining on the top of his head, where it hasn’t been shaved to add diodes between metal plates, is prematurely gray.

Lysander Moon. Once proud Gamma of the Silver Crescent Pack is now little more than a collection of wires, tubes and flesh. This is what the Brotherhood has reduced him to.

  • The Alpha and the Rental Luna   Chapter 178

    [Alexis/Amaryllis] How did he find me? Good Goddess, how did he find me? I don't need to turn around to know who it is. I recognize his scent and the way my body becomes tight and wet when he's near. I hate how I react to him, automatically, my body calling for him. I need to get out of here. "Agh!" I push against the stone but it doesn't budge. Damn it, I wedged it in place, hoping to keep him out, not realizing I was dooming myself to being stuck inside with him. Inhaling deeply, I pool my remaining strength to press as hard as I can against the stone, but my limbs are rubbery and weak from my efforts to run far and fast away from him--only to end up running straight into his arms. "You might as well talk to me, Alexis. I'm not going anywhere," he chuckles and my face grows warm with embarrassment as he reminds me of how vulnerable I am. Naked, tired, and far from the city center, nobody will be here to save me from his intentions, whatever they may be. He's right, I have no ch

  • The Alpha and the Rental Luna   Chapter 177

    [Alexis/Amaryllis]A howl pierces the night, a soulful sound that echoes with the sound of a thousand heartbreaks and rejections, and I stop in my tracks, unable to move forward, a single paw on the other side of the glowing barrier. My ears perk to listen, as the sound repeats, this time closer, more of a plea. It is the call of a broken alpha, one who has given up all reason to live. “Don’t leave me,” my mate calls as he howls one more time. “I’ve been waiting for you to love me. I will wait as long as I must. But please, don’t go out there. Don’t end everything just to get away. You’re too precious.” As the last words leave his mind, the depth of feeling that flows between us through our weak and strained bond is so suffocatingly deep I could drown in his emotions. It is a confusing rush of contradictions: He wants me, he loves me, he hates himself, he can’t let me die, but he wants to die with me. Gasping for air, I blink rapidly as I take a stumbling step away from him. “Stay

  • The Alpha and the Rental Luna   Chapter 175

    [Alexis/Amarylis] Araminta Thorpe has a bold plan, one that I was willing to go along with if it meant redeeming myself in the eyes of my pack and also reclaiming a shred of my dignity, but now she’s asking too much. “It’s important that the couples involved are as bonded as possible,” she informs us. “Double marked, double blessed. Despite what you’ve been told, witches CAN mark wolf mates…it’s just a bit more complicated.” Luna Apple blushes, embarrassed over some memory and I wonder again what it is that Sly saw in such a shy, delicate girl. She’s barely a woman, and yet he chose her over me to be his queen. It’s not that I want Sly, although I’d be lying if I didn’t admit that at least part of me will always crave him, it’s more that I don’t see what he sees in her. Apple LeRoux Moon is hardly more than a child. “Your mate is even younger,” my wolf reminds me with a snotty snarl. “Who are you to judge the Moon Goddess’ will?” “I don’t remember asking for your opinion, Ala

  • The Alpha and the Rental Luna   Chapter 175

    [Parris] For someone so determined to not be my mate, his wolf sure has other plans. I’ve never seen a soul so divided–but then again, he was a powerful witch before even a touch of his wolfish side came out. I guess it’s no wonder why he can’t make up his mind. It’s like he has a split personality. My wolf and I have been together since the very beginning. There has never been a time when I didn’t hear Max’s voice. It must have been hard for Hex to watch from Hawthorne’s eyes but never have a say in what he did with his life, a life they both share. “Yes, she touched me,” I admit openly. I did nothing wrong, nor did Sorrel. Hawthorne hasn’t claimed me as either his mate or his zing. What I do with my body isn’t his concern. And yet, I feel a need to explain. “She touched me, but I rejected her. She won’t touch me again without permission. You can let her go, Hex, she isn’t a threat.” To prove my point, I walk towards him, preessing my body into his. His muscles relax as he feel

  • The Alpha and the Rental Luna   Chapter 174

    [Parris]Apparently she didn’t need much convincing, because in less than an hour, my father came back to my room with a large smile on his face. “Look who I found in the hall on her way to visit,” he grins as he moves aside to let a young healer enter. Smiling bashfully, she looks down at her feet. “Mr. Abernathy said you might be able to use my…um…services as a healer?”My father is grinning like a fool. “She could be a good choice,” he communicates through our bond, surprisingly happy. “She’s from a good family, and a healer too. You’d have beautiful, healthy pups.” I cough, looking away. I wasn’t thinking about taking a mate or having any kids. But often big spells like these can have happy surprises. Witch families are often much larger than wolf and human families for that very reason.And of course he wants grandchildren, I’m his only child. It must have been hard for him to discover my mate is a man. “Dad, um, thank you for helping my friend find her way here,” my cheeks ar

  • The Alpha and the Rental Luna   Chapter 173

    [Parris] I had fallen asleep in my mate’s arms, nestled into his neck as he lifted me from the ground and his strong legs had carried me all the way back to the northern entrance. Or at least, that’s my best guess. Based on the shifting sunlight slowly dipping towards the horizon, that was hours ago. He’s gone now, I can tell, not just because his warmth has been replaced with cool sheets and his voice exchanged for the sound of a machine beeping, but because I cannot smell him anymore. Scent is important to wolves, even a mixed mutt wolf like me. A chair next to me creaks, and I turn my head slowly to see my father at my bedside. He is bent in half, his elbows dug into his knees as he holds his hands before him in prayer to the goddess, the words of an ancient incantation mumbled on his lips. Before meeting my mother, Harlem Abernathy had promised his life to the Moon Goddess, living as a monk at the Temple of the Sacred Moon on the East Coast. But then one day, as he was collect
