The door handle turned again.

Slow.

Smooth.

Purposeful.

Not like a monster clawing to break in.

Like someone confident they already belonged inside.

Maya’s heartbeat hammered so hard it hurt.

She backed away, step by trembling step, eyes fixed on the door.

“Aiden…?” she whispered, even though she knew—

deep down—

it wasn’t him.

Aiden wouldn’t knock.

Aiden wouldn’t turn the handle carefully.

Aiden wouldn’t hide his presence like a shadow.

A soft click sounded as the door unlocked.

Maya’s breath

  • The Luna he never expected    Fractures Beneath the Crown

    The howls of celebration lasted deep into the night.But power never settles quietly.By morning, the pack grounds felt different. Charged. Watching.Maya stood at the balcony of the pack house, the early sun brushing gold against the trees. She could still feel it — the shift. The bond no longer pulsed in bursts.It flowed.Steady. Ancient. Alive.Behind her, Aiden approached silently. She sensed him before he touched her — a warmth at her back, a steady presence that no longer felt separate from h

  • The Luna he never expected    The Ascension Under Blood Moon

    The howl at the border did not come again.That silence was worse.By nightfall, tension wrapped around the pack grounds like a tightening fist. Wolves patrolled the borders in doubled shifts. The air felt charged — waiting.Inside the council clearing, torches burned in a wide circle. Elders stood at the edges, their expressions grave. Warriors formed a protective perimeter.At the center stood Aiden.And beside him — Maya.Not behind.

  • The Luna he never expected    Echoes of Ash and Silver

    Dawn crept slowly through the trees, pale silver light washing over the clearing where the storm had raged hours before. The earth still smelled of rain and power.Maya woke in Aiden’s arms.For a moment, she forgot everything — the fight, the lightning, Lucian’s fury. All she felt was warmth. Solid. Safe.Aiden’s heartbeat beneath her cheek was steady now, no longer wild with battle. His hand rested protectively at her waist even in sleep, as though some part of him feared she might disappear.But something inside her had changed.She could feel it.The bond.It pulsed softly in her chest — not chaotic, not overwhelming. Controlled. Awake.Aiden stirred.His eyes opened slowly, gold flickering before settling into their usual warmth. When he saw her watching him, something vulnerable crossed his face.“You’re still here,” he murmured.Maya smiled faintly. “I didn’t plan on going anywhere.”He exhaled like he’d been holding his breath for years.But then his expression shifted. Tensio

  • The Luna he never expected    Fire and Moonlight

    The clearing was a storm of shadows and fury. Rain poured down in sheets, lightning cracking above like the sky itself was witnessing the final showdown.Aiden stood at the center, muscles coiled, claws glinting, fur rippling along his shoulders. His wolf roared, echoing through the trees, answering the howl of Maya’s own awakening bond.Maya’s heartbeat pounded in sync with his. Her chest burned with the surge of power, fear, and desire coursing through her veins. She didn’t feel weak. She felt alive.Lucian stepped forward, calm and cruel, but his confidence wavered. He could feel the bond radiating from her, from Aiden, a power he couldn’t touch.“You really think you can stop me?” Lucian hissed, voice like ice.Aiden’s eyes blazed gold and silver, glowing with unbridled fury. “I already have. She’s mine. And nothing you do will change that.”Maya stepped closer, hands brushing his chest. “I’m here, Aiden. Always.”Her voice carried through the storm, weaving into his rage, calming

  • The Luna he never expected    The Choice Approaches

    The next few days were quiet, deceptively quiet.Maya and Adrian spent more time together—long walks, shared dinners, whispered conversations that made her chest ache in the best way. Every small gesture, every intentional touch reminded her of what she deserved: care, attention, love that didn’t come with chaos.But Tobi… he hadn’t disappeared.Maya was leaving work when she saw him—leaning against her building, arms crossed, eyes dark and dangerous.“Tobi!” she exclaimed, alarmed. “What are you doing here?”“I need to talk,” he said, voice low.“Before you get too comfortable.”Maya’s chest tightened. She didn’t want to talk. She wanted to run. But she didn’t.“What is it?” she asked cautiously.Tobi’s eyes flicked around—checking if anyone was watching. Then he leaned closer, whispering:“You think he’s perfect, don’t you? You think he’s everything I’m not.”Maya hesitated, trapped between fear and old longing.“Adrian is… different. He treats me right.”Tobi’s jaw clenched.“Diffe

  • The Luna he never expected    The Door Between Two Men

    The knocking grew louder—no longer a request, but a demand.“Maya!” Tobi’s voice cut through the door. “Open up!”Adrian’s jaw tightened. Maya’s hands trembled.Her heartbeat felt like thunder in her chest as she walked to the door. Not because she wanted to open it… but because the fear of what would happen if she didn’t was worse.She cracked the door slightly.Tobi pushed it open fully.He stepped inside—eyes immediately landing on Adrian.Time froze.Everything froze.Adrian stood tall, his face unreadable but firm.Tobi’s expression shifted from irritation… to shock… to a sharp, angry smile.“So this is what we’re doing now?” Tobi said slowly. “You’ve got another man in your house?”Maya’s voice was small. “Tobi, stop.”“Stop?” he repeated. “You couldn’t even give me ten minutes and now I see why.”Adrian stepped forward calmly, but with quiet strength.“Watch your tone,” Adrian said.Tobi scoffed. “And who the hell are you?”Adrian didn’t hesitate. “Someone who treats her better
