The air between us stayed heavy after Rowan's words.

I wanted to tell him that everything had already changed the second I got dumped into this world with no warning, no manual, no gentle introduction to the fact that werewolves actually existed and apparently, for whatever fucking reason I was supposed to help lead them.

But I didn't have it in me, so instead, I stayed pressed against him, resting my cheek against the solid wall of his chest, and listening to the rhythm of his heartbeat as he stroked my hair.

"I know," I whispered, sighing. "And I don't know if I'm relieved or terrified."

"Both," he said, voice rough around the edges like he'd swallowed gravel. His fingers kept brushing through my hair, gently at first so that I almost didn't feel it, then bolder when I didn't pull away.

"That's the right answer." He continued. "Anyone who isn't scared of what's happening between us is an idiot."

I pulled back enough to see his face, immediately regretting it when those dark eyes m

  • The Luna Reborn: Surviving As The FL In A Werewolf Romance    The Shadow of the Elder

    The corridor was silent after Malrik’s departure, but the air felt brittle. Lena was still trembling against my side, her small frame racking with the aftershocks of a terror that was never supposed to happen this early. In the original text, Lena’s persecution by the Elders was a slow burn, a series of minor cruelties that built up over weeks until I was forced to choose between her safety and my standing in the pack.By standing up to Malrik now, I’d skipped the "Patience and Virtue" entirely. I had traded the role of the suffering heroine for the role of a political threat."You should go back inside, Iris," Rowan said. His voice was no longer the smooth, seductive purr of a suitor; it was sharp with the realization that the girl he thought he knew was gone. He looked at Lena, then back at me, his brow furrowed. "Malrik is the head of the Council of Elders. You didn't just insult a man; you insulted the tradition that keeps this pack from tearing itself apart.""Tradition is just a

  • The Luna Reborn: Surviving As The FL In A Werewolf Romance    Slut Shamed By A Geriatric Wolf

    The heavy iron bolt slid into place, and for the second time in two lives, I was a prisoner in the Northern Alpha’s suite.Only this time, I wasn't shivering and dripping wet from a capsized boat, nor was I being pressed against the door by a furious Kieran while he demanded I admit I belonged to him. I was dry, fully clothed in my travel dress, and currently dragging a heavy oak vanity across the floor to block the secondary door to the bathing chamber.I knew the timeline. In the original book, this was the night Rowan was supposed to tap on my window and lure me out to the river for a secret rendezvous. That bad decision would lead to the boat capsizing, Kieran dragging me back here like a sack of potatoes, and a very steamy, semi-abusive make-out session that would only be interrupted by Elder Malrik slut-shaming me from the hallway.I was not in the mood to be slut-shamed by a geriatric werewolf today."Iris," Rowan said, his voice a low vibration in the quiet room. He was leanin

  • The Luna Reborn: Surviving As The FL In A Werewolf Romance    The Déjà Vu Dance

    The heavy iron bolt slid into place, and for the second time in two lives, I was a prisoner in the Northern Alpha’s suite.Only this time, I wasn't weeping into the silk pillows or wondering if I’d ever see a cheeseburger again. I was leaning against the balcony railing, counting down the seconds in my head. In the original Chapter One, this was the moment the "Romantic Tension" peaked. Kieran was supposed to burst back in, smelling of pine and fury, to demand I "accept the bond." Then Rowan would intervene, leading to a shirtless brawl that ended with me fainting in a heap of lace and drama.But I had already disrupted the spy plot. The "Author" was probably up there in the clouds, screaming at her celestial keyboard because I wasn't following the prompts."You're very quiet," Rowan said. He was sitting in the high-backed velvet chair, his long legs crossed at the ankles. He looked like a painting of a prince, but I knew that under that tunic, he was ready to spring. "Usually, by now

    The lock on the door didn't just click; it thudded. It was the sound of two men losing their minds because their favorite toy had developed a mind of its own.I paced the length of the fur rug, my cloak discarded on the bed. I could hear them whispering in the hallway—the low, vibrating rumble of Kieran’s growl and the sharp, clinical tone of Rowan’s counter-arguments. They weren't fighting about the Shadow Pack anymore. They were fighting about me.When the door finally opened, they didn't come in alone. Two guards took up positions outside, and the Alphas stepped in, shutting the world out behind them.Kieran looked like he was vibrating. The air around him felt hot, thick with the scent of a thunderstorm. Rowan was the opposite, cold, poised, and terrifyingly observant. He pulled out a chair and gestured for me to sit."Sit down, Iris," Rowan said. It wasn't a suggestion.I sat. I didn't have much of a choice. Kieran hovered behind me like a dark cloud, his hands resting on the bac

  • The Luna Reborn: Surviving As The FL In A Werewolf Romance    Foiling The Author's Plans

    The morning dragged on with agonizing slowness. Every time the heavy clock in the hallway chimed, I felt a jolt of anxiety. I knew the timeline. Right now, in the Great Hall, the elders were whispering about my "strange behavior," and Kieran and Rowan were likely one word away from shifting and tearing the table in half.The Author loved this part. It was supposed to be the "clash of kings," where their obsession with me made them sloppy. But while they were measuring their egos against each other, the back gate of the stronghold was usually left poorly guarded. That was how the spy got in."My Lady, you are pacing again," Lena said, her voice full of worry. She was folding laundry near the bed, watching me with wide eyes. "Perhaps a bath would help? I can bring up the lavender oils.""No time for lavender, Lena," I said, stopping at the balcony edge.I looked down into the courtyard. I could see the guards milling about. They were bored. They thought they were safe behind stone walls

  • The Luna Reborn: Surviving As The FL In A Werewolf Romance    Try Again

    I woke up before the sun was fully over the mountains. For a few seconds, I forgot where I was. I reached for my phone on the nightstand, expecting to feel the plastic case and the tangle of my charger cord. My hand hit cold stone and the rough edge of a wooden table instead.The memory of the void and the Author’s cold face rushed back. I sat up quickly, my heart thumping against my ribs. The silk sheets felt too smooth, too expensive. The room was silent, but it was a heavy kind of silence. I looked at the two doors that led to the Alphas’ rooms. They were closed, but the air in the suite felt charged.I got out of bed and walked to the window. The valley was covered in a thick, white mist. In my first life, I thought it looked like a fairy tale. Now, I knew that mist was a perfect place for an ambush. I felt a wave of crushed hope. I was really here. I was back in Kieran's stronghold, the place that had become my gilded cage.I was hungry, but it was a sharp, angry kind of hunger.
