The Last Blackblood Luna Chapter 56
Chapter 56: The RescueLyra POV I didn’t try to pull away. I couldn’t anyway. My fingers curled through his hair at the base of his skull."Not yet," I whispered in his ear. "Look at him. He’s putting it in his sleeve. He’s taking it to the drop."Lyra’s breathing hitched. His throat rolled with the sound of the cedar dust and his anger. The dark veins pulsing along his jaw were visible even in the darkness of the loft. But he didn’t jump. He forced his beast back down, and his golden eyes glowed.Kaelen rolled the piece of forged parchment. He didn’t look back. He knew what he was doing. He had done it a dozen times before. Carefully, he tucked the note inside the double hem of his sleeve. He attached the brass clasp of the seal box and melted away from the side flap of the command tent.As soon as his heel left the canvas,Lyra moved.He didn’t climb down the ladder. He jumped over the beam and landed on the packed dirt twenty feet below. He moved with the quiet grace of a mounta
The Last Blackblood Luna Chapter 54
Chapter 54: The TrapWe didn't cross the main wooden bridge into River-Run.A mile north of the camp's perimeter, where the tributaries cut deep channels through scrub pine, Lyra pulled his mount to a halt without a sound. The warhorse tossed its head and flecked foam over the bit. Lyra's hand on the reins didn't move."Down." The word came out of his chest like gravel. Before my feet touched the ground, his hand closed around my waist, lifted me clear of the clay, and set me against the trunk of an old pine. Then he was against me, a wall of heat pressing me into the bark. His eyes were all ember, and the dark veins on his neck stood out as he scented the wind coming up off the camp downriver."Mara." He didn't turn his head. "The root cellar behind the trapper's stone pit. Take the child down. Lock the iron bar from the inside."Mara slid off her horse with Leta held tight against her ribs. The girl was limp, twelve years old, her silver-tinged hair stuck flat to her forehead and

Chapter 53: The Salt and the IronLyra's POVMara’s finger shook as she pointed down a goat trail. Mud was packed under her nails, wrists red and raw from those leather binds. Still, she never lagged. “The sea-gate. That path leads to the salt vaults. But Vane’s got cold-iron suppression stones set up over the archway.”I glanced at Nadia. She crouched in the bracken, hood pulled low, moonlight making her look almost ghostly. But her violet eyes? Calm, sharp as razors. You could tell she was ready.“Cold-iron cuts you off from your wolf,” she said, rummaging through her satchel. She pulled out a little oilcloth bundle and untwined it, revealing that familiar, stinging powder—sulfur-root and mountain vitriol. “When I blow this into the vault’s air draft, it eats the ward stones. Quick, but we don’t have much time before someone notices.”“That’s all I need,” I growled, fingers wrapped tight around my broadsword.The panic back at the charcoal shed? Gone. Now it was fury, cold and focus
The Last Blackblood Luna Chapter 52
Chapter 52: The Ridge Nadia's POVMara rode in the middle, looking drained and defeated. Those leather cords around her wrists were soaked and tight. Her lead rope was clipped to Lyra’s saddle. Her dark red hair was plastered to her face, dripping, hiding her expression. She kept her head down, shoulders hunched—didn’t so much as shiver, just stared at nothing.Whenever Mara’s horse slipped, Lyra’s hand went right to his sword. His knuckles were pale as snow, and I could feel his nerves buzzing through our mate bond. Where I usually felt warmth from him, now it was like sharp electricity—tense, raw, ready for disaster. He was terrified of waking up with a blade at his throat.With each step, I felt a sting on my collarbone—the lingering scratch from Mara’s stiletto. Did I hate her? Not really. But I definitely didn’t trust her. I watched the way she moved, the way she breathed. Down here, trust was nothing but wishful thinking.“We stop here,” Lyra said, low and rough.He pointed to
The Last Blackblood Luna Chapter 51
Chapter 51 - The Clock and the CageNadia POVThe room was now in use as a war meeting room.Valerius stood by the door, jaw clenched. Mara sat on a small wooden stool in the middle of the room. I had made sure her chains were removed. However, she hunched over, head hanging low. Her hands were free, but she was slumped over."You have twenty minutes, Mara. Tell us everything you know about the handover." Lyra said, his voice monotone, with no hint of anger inside. He leaned over the pine table, large hands pressed onto the edges of the leather map.Mara gulped. "They gave me a deadline. Cassian's men said if I didn't do it by midnight, then they wouldn't give me anything. The handover point isn't in River-Run; it's sixty miles south. At a Watch Tower on the coast called Black-Rock Point."Valerius frowned. "Old Iron Fort. It's on a jagged cliff overlooking the seas. It's been abandoned since the Great Wards were built."Mara shook her head. "No. Cassian's personal guard uses it to k
The Last Blackblood Luna Chapter 50
Chapter 50: The Break and The Anchor Nadia's POV The tiny back room was in disarray. Pine wall panels lay broken everywhere. The air hung thick with the metallic tang of blood. Valerius had chained Mara down in the dry storeroom below with heavy guards. But up here, the silence was deafening. I sat on the edge of the bunk bed, dabbing my collarbone with a damp, clean cloth. My hands were still shaky. Not from the pain of the blade but from the blood pumping through my veins with adrenaline. Lyra hadn't said a word since they had taken Mara. He stood with his back to the dark wood wall. His wide hands were pressed against the rough oak. His head hung low between his shoulders. His bare chest rose and fell with ragged breaths. His golden eyes were dull. Scared of him more than his animalistic anger. "Lyra," I whispered. He didn't move. "I was asleep." His voice was frighteningly low and raspy. "I was three feet away from you, asleep. Your throat was slit with a blad
