Aurora’s POV

The air was crisp and damp as Ember and I left the stadium, the roar of the crowd fading behind us like an echo I couldn’t shake.

The field lights stayed on, bright enough to sting my eyes, casting long shadows across the parking lot and the empty bleachers we’d just climbed down from.

I clutched the paper cup of now-cold hot chocolate between my hands, my fingers stiff with nerves more than the cold.

“Best. Game. Ever,” Ember practically shouted beside me, her ponytail bouncing as she nearly skipped across the asphalt. “Did you see Zander? He was in full-on beast mode.”

I forced a smile. “Yeah… he played well.”

That was an understatement.

Zander didn’t just play well—he was brutal. Powerful. Every pass, every hit, every growl of frustration that left his throat felt like it was aimed straight at me.

But I didn’t want to tell Ember that.

She wouldn’t get it. Or worse—she’d try to fix it.

And there were some things you couldn’t fix. Not when they were tangled in years of

  • The Awakening Of The Hybrid Luna    Chapter 54: Meeting Liora

    Aurora’s POVBy the time we reached the tree line, I felt like my skin was on fire.Every breath burned. My legs trembled. My heart pounded so hard I thought it would break my ribs.I collapsed to my knees, clutching the earth like it might hold me together.Zander was beside me instantly, crouching low, his stormy eyes fierce. “Rory, listen to me. You’ve got this. Look at me.”I tried, but my vision blurred. My whole body shook. “I—I can’t—”Rowan was on my other side, calmer, his hand wrapping mine. His green eyes didn’t waver. “Yes, you can. It will hurt. It always happens the first time. But you are stronger than this pain.”Behind them, Ember hovered, pale with awe. The Shadow Fangs spread out like silent guards, their usual teasing replaced with solemn watchfulness.And inside me, the voice came again.Aurora. Let go.I gasped, my head snapping up. “Who—?”Me. I am you. I am your wolf. It is time.Tears burned my eyes. “I don’t know how.”Yes, you do. It’s in your blood. In your

  • The Awakening Of The Hybrid Luna    Chapter 53: I’m scared Zander

    Aurora’s POVWalking back into school this morning felt like stepping onto a stage I hadn’t auditioned for. Why might you ask?On my right, Zander’s hand curled firmly around mine, warm and possessive. On my left, Rowan’s hand was steady, his grip gentler but no less unyielding. Behind us, the Shadow Fangs prowled like shadows come to life — Xavier, Lilly, Ben, Trent, Derek. Ember and Liam brought up the rear, her grin so wide I thought it might split her face.And every single head in the hallway turned.Whispers rose immediately.“She’s really with both of them?”“Since when do Zander Blake and Rowan Rivers walk together without throwing punches?”“She’s holding their hands—both of them!”“Well duh didn’t you see them all at the party this weekend or are you blind?”Heat rushed up my neck, but I kept my chin high.Because for once, I wasn’t hiding.Zander’s smirk deepened at the gawking, his wolf pride practically radiating off him. Rowan’s expression didn’t change, but I felt the

  • The Awakening Of The Hybrid Luna    Chapter 52: Sisters and Secrets

    Ember’s POVThere are few joys in life greater than watching Aurora Hayes try to hide behind a piece of toast.Especially when the only thing she really wanted to hide from was the fact that she almost hooked up with both of her mates in one night.She sat at the kitchen table like a small, mortified monarch, cheeks the color of a flushed apple, nibbling at the toast like if she chewed hard enough the whole embarrassing scene would dissolve into crumbs. Zander was brooding into his coffee like the world owed him something he hadn’t collected yet. Rowan sat upright across from him, hands wrapped around his mug, the kind of serene that made you want to punch him and hug him at the same time. Aurora—moon goddess, Aurora—looked like she wanted the floor to swallow her whole.Honestly? It was hilarious.I bit the inside of my cheek to stop myself from laughing out loud. I love Rory—don’t get me wrong—but the image of her trying to disappear behind toast? Iconic. I should have been symp

  • The Awakening Of The Hybrid Luna    Chapter 51: The Morning After

    Aurora’s POVThe first thing I noticed when I woke up was the light stabbing me in the eyes.The second thing was my head — pounding, heavy, like someone had stuffed it with gravel.I groaned, rolling over on the couch. Ember was sprawled half in the chair and on the floor, her hair a wild mess, one leg draped over mine like we were kids at a sleepover again.She stirred, groaned too, then cracked one eye open. “We’re never drinking again.”I tried to laugh, but it came out as more of a cough. “Agreed.”We both flopped back against the pillows, groaning in unison. For a minute, we just lay there, breathing through the hangover haze, until Ember’s lips twitched.“We were hilarious last night,” she whispered.I peeked at her. “We were a disaster.”“A hilarious disaster,” she corrected, grinning despite the dark circles under her eyes. “You should’ve seen yourself trying to challenge Trent to a dance-off. I thought Zander was going to break his own jaw from grinding his teeth.”Heat cre

  • The Awakening Of The Hybrid Luna    Chapter 50 Tangled

    Aurora’s POVBy the time the last of the music faded and the crowd thinned, Zander’s house looked like a battlefield.Pizza boxes stacked on the counter, soda spilled on the floor, half-empty bottles abandoned everywhere. Ember and I had tried to help clean, but “tried” quickly turned into us collapsing in a fit of laughter because I tripped over a crumpled bag of chips. How does that even happen? Rowan hadn’t left after all. I noticed him still lingering in the kitchen, his green eyes scanning the room like he was cataloging every threat even though the only danger left was Ember raiding the fridge.When Zander muttered something about “you’re crashing here, right?” Ember practically squealed. “Sleepover!” So, we stayed of course.It started innocently. Ember pulled me into the kitchen where we unearthed a couple of bottles — definitely not soda. She poured us both glasses, clinking hers against mine.“To survival,” she grinned.“To bad ideas,” I countered.The first sip burned. Th

    Zanders POV The second the bass rattled through the walls of my house, I knew this wasn’t the “small get-together” Rory had wanted.But the truth was? I was more than excited to see the surprise on her face when she found out. The Shadow Fangs knew how to throw a party. And if the whole damn school needed to see her — to see my Luna standing at the center of it all — then so be it.The moment Rory stepped off the last stair, I swore the whole damn house shifted.Music still pounded, the Shadow Fangs laughed, the air was still thick with the smell of pizza and soda and wolves cutting loose — but none of it mattered.She mattered.Her wide green eyes searched the room like she wasn’t sure she belonged here. Like one wrong step might make the floor open up and swallow her whole.My chest tightened. My wolf slammed against my ribs. Ours. Protect. Claim. Show them who she is.I didn’t even think. I pushed off the wall, cutting through the noise. “Rory’s here,” I announced, my voice carry
