The red light above the operating room door remained on.

I didn’t know how much time had passed.

The clock hanging across the corridor ticked steadily, but I had stopped looking at it. Every minute felt exactly the same. I sat for a while, then stood, then walked a few steps before returning to the same spot outside the operating room. My hands refused to stay still. Sometimes they twisted together. Sometimes they rubbed against each other until my palms turned red.

  • The Dead Luna's Secret Son   Chapter 53: Eyes in the Forest

    •Lisa•I didn't sleep that night.Every time I closed my eyes, I heard the footsteps from the passage.She found it.Does she know?She must not reach the Alpha.The words kept repeating inside my head.By morning, I had convinced myself of one thing.I couldn't tell Ronan yet.Not until I knew who was using that passage.I sat on the edge of my bed and stared at the small piece of black fabric I had found near the hidden entrance.It wasn't ordinary cloth.It was thick and strangely smooth.I rubbed it between my fingers.Whoever had been wearing it had been close to the villa.Very close.A knock came at my door.I quickly slipped the fabric beneath my pillow."Lisa?" Ronan.I stood."Come in."The door opened.Ronan entered, his eyes immediately searching my face."You didn't sleep."It wasn't a question."I'm fine."His expression hardened."You keep saying that."I looked away.He walked closer."Did something happen?"For a second, I almost told h

  • The Dead Luna's Secret Son   Chapter 52: Trust no elder

    •Lisa•I placed my hand against it.Nothing happened.I pushed harder.Still nothing.I moved the lantern closer.There was a small carving beside the crack.A circle.Inside it was the same symbol from the villa window.My heart raced.I pressed my fingers against it.A soft click sounded.I jumped back.The wall moved.Not much.Just enough for a narrow opening to appear.I stared at it.There was a passage behind the wall.I couldn’t believe it.I pushed the stone farther.The opening widened.I stepped inside.The passage was narrow.I had to turn sideways in some places because the walls were so close together.The air was colder here.I held the lantern in front of me and continued walking.My footsteps echoed.For several minutes, nothing happened.Then I saw something on the ground.A footprint.I stopped.It wasn’t mine.The mark was fresh.My heart began pounding.Someone had been here.Recently.I crouched down and touched the edge of the print.Still damp.Whoever had made

  • The Dead Luna's Secret Son   Chapter 51: Secret Passage

    •Lisa•I looked around.My eyes landed on the old wardrobe.I slipped the box behind a pile of clothes just as the door opened.Ronan stepped inside.His eyes immediately found mine.“You look frightened.”“I’m fine.”He studied me.I hated how easily he could read me.“What happened?”“Nothing.”He walked closer.“You’ve been saying that a lot lately.”I looked away.Ronan stopped in front of me.“Lisa.”I swallowed.“What?”“If something is wrong, tell me.”For a second, I almost did.I almost showed him the note.I almost told him about my mother.About the photograph.About the warning.But then I remembered the words.Trust no Elder.And the people around Ronan were elders.Some of them had been part of the pack long before he became Alpha.Some of them had already tried to turn him against me.I couldn’t risk telling anyone until I understood what I had found.“I’m just tired.”Ronan’s expression softened.“You should rest.”He turned toward the door.Then he stopped.“Desmond i

  • The Dead Luna's Secret Son   Chapter 50: The Broken Bracelet

    •Lisa•The bracelet fell apart in my hands.I stared at the tiny pieces scattered across my palm, confused by how something I had kept for so many years could break so easily.Then something small fell onto the floor.I froze.For a moment, I thought it was only a piece of the bracelet. But when I bent down and picked it up, I realized it was a tiny silver compartment.My heart began to pound.I had never known the bracelet could open.I turned it over in my hand, examining the broken pieces. The silver was old and scratched, but there was a small opening on one side that had been hidden beneath the metal.My fingers trembled as I pushed the edge.It opened.Something white was folded inside.A piece of paper.I looked toward the bedroom door.Nobody was there.I quickly locked it.My breathing became uneven as I unfolded the tiny paper.There were only three words written on it.Trust no Elder.I read it again.Then again.Trust no Elder.I sat on the edge of the

    •Desmond•The date on the hospital record refused to leave my mind.I had seen it before.I just hadn't understood what it meant.I sat alone in my office, staring at the file spread across my desk.Milo.That name had been appearing too often.First in Lisa's life.Then in the hospital records.Then in the strange reports surrounding the child.And now, in a timeline that made no sense.I opened the file again.Milo's date of birth was written clearly.I checked it against Lisa's records.Then against the old Blackthorn records.I leaned back.Something was wrong.Very wrong.I pulled another folder from the cabinet.Lisa's old pack records.Her name.Her age.Her family.Her status before she disappeared.And the date the pack had officially recorded her death.I placed both documents beside each other.My eyes moved between them.I calculated the dates again.Then again.The result didn't change.Milo had been born only months after Lisa was supposedly

  • The Dead Luna's Secret Son   Chapter 48: Selene’s Choice

    •Lisa•Selene asked me to meet her after midnight.That alone was enough to make me suspicious.She had never asked to see me alone before.I stood near the window, watching the villa guards move through the grounds.The memory of Ronan's letter was still fresh in my mind.Someone had known about my pregnancy.Someone had interrupted me before I could tell him.And now, five years later, people were still watching me.I couldn't shake the feeling that the pieces were connected.A soft knock came at the door.I turned.Selene stood outside."Can I come in?"I hesitated.Then nodded.She stepped inside and closed the door behind her.She wasn't dressed like the woman I had seen around the pack.No jewelry.No formal clothes.Just a simple dress and a shawl wrapped around her shoulders.She looked tired."What do you want?"She looked at me."I need to talk to you.""About Ronan?"Her eyes flickered."Partly."I crossed my arms."Then talk."She took a slow b
