last update publish date: 2026-06-13 05:42:07

MENODORA'S POV

The tightness in his jaw completely unravels and it causes his lips to part just enough to let his guard down. I guess this strategy works well after all.

“I know.” A quiet defeated breath slips past his parted lips.

“So no more secrets right?"

“Hmmm"

“You're so annoying when you do that."

“I know…" a mischievous smirk plays at the edges of his lips.

I stare at him long and hard, not sure if I want to throw him down the valley or just hurl myself off into the mountains. Then I

  • The Luna's Blood Moon: She Refused To Bow   CHAPTER 52: MESSAGE FROM AN OLD FRIEND

    MENODORA'S POV I gap at him, the sound of my own pulse drowning out his words.“There's no way this is real," I think to myself, the reality of the moment refusing to take root in my head.“And what old friend is this if I may ask?"“A man who spent the most of his life regretting his decisions and the mistakes that he made." My heart is beating so fast and so loud in my chest that I'm so sure everyone can hear it clearly in the silence that follows."What…what man?” I hate how shaky my voice is, I hate that this is affecting more than I think it would.A heartbeat stretches into two as the stranger looks like he's contemplating what to say next. Finally he lets out a soft huff and opens his mouth to speak."I have been told not to disclose that.”I shut my eyes tight to contain the hysterical laughter already threatening to bubble out of my throat. Just when I think I'm about to get answers, he refuses to offer up those answers easily.“Why does nothing ever go my way?” This though

  • The Luna's Blood Moon: She Refused To Bow   CHAPTER 51: THE GATES

    MENODORA'S POV “Seems they have found you first." In his words, terror strikes me like I just took an invisible plunge into a freezing pool. The warmth from earlier is now completely drained from my face and in its stead, there's a slick unnatural dampness on my skin. It is as if my skin is rebelling, shedding in an act of sudden silent panic. And the horns…they just would not stop sound now. One toot after another.The sound rolls through Rogue land like the clap of thundering and everyone moves in panic. The warriors rush towards the eastern wall and the villagers abandon whatever it is they had been doing. Children are rushed into the shelters and doors are slammed shut with sickening urgency. And just like that, what should have been a peaceful morning is untimely ruined.“What do we do?" I turn to look at Orvax, realizing somewhere in the back of my mind, just how much I have come to rely on him in times like this. “We have to go check it out to know what we're even up against

  • The Luna's Blood Moon: She Refused To Bow   CHAPTER 50: THEY FOUND YOU FIRST

    MENODORA’S POV“Why though? You can't tell me to destroy it without at least telling me why it's so important to destroy it." “That pendant will bring you nothing but trouble."“Meaning you know what it means right?" “Depends on how you choose to look at it, but I know enough to know how much trouble it could bring your way." “Tell me then." “And what if I refuse to?" His words pull a trigger and I feel an imaginary fuse burning down to the wick. My anger erupts, hot, blinding and absolute.“What do you mean?" The older Alpha seems so unaffected by my outburst, instead taking his sweet time to cross his hands behind his back, regarding me like a teacher will regard a student throwing a tantrum.“What I am simply saying is that some doors are better left closed, some questions better left unanswered." "This concerns me, my whole life! My mother was killed unfairly, I was hunted like a dog for the most part of my life, I was framed for a murder I didn't commit…" with each word,

  • The Luna's Blood Moon: She Refused To Bow   CHAPTER 49: BURN IT

    MENODORA’S POVThat night, sleep decides to play a cruel game of hide and seek with me. I spend most of the night tossing from one side of the makeshift sleeping bed to another. My mind keeps playing everything, but most especially the pouch, the letter and the pendant. Orvax had said the stitchings weren't just ordinary ones, but a map and they apparently led to someone.“Who could that be?" This question keeps me up till the early hours of the morning and I only start to drift into an uneasy sleep when the orange rays of the sun start to peek out from the clouds, staining the dawn with a beautiful mix of light pink and blue. Being able to drift off like that, however uneasy, is an achievement for me considering how I hardly ever sleep in the first place.Everytime I try to close my eyes, willing for sleep to steal me away into its abyss of oblivion, I see something different. The first time I close my eyes, I see my mother, but she doesn't seem to notice me there, no matter how hard

Then I let out a slow theatrical hiss of air, my gaze lifting towards the sky, sending a quick prayer to the moon goddess for patience.“I really cannot believe how I became friends with you both," Kova says and he looks genuinely offended. “Bunch of idiots," I hear him mutter under his breath.“Friends? Since when did we become friends?" Orvax and I echo, both our eyelids slowly fluttering up at him in utter disbelief.The corner of Kova’s mouth quirks upward as he holds back a laugh."I finally got t

  • The Luna's Blood Moon: She Refused To Bow   CHAPTER 47: MY FATHER?

    MENODORA'S POV“Tell my daughter...I have finally found her,” I hear Kova say and it feels like a boulder has been physically slammed into me. None of us speak, unsure of what to say to break the silence. The silver pendant still rests in my palm, the weight of it heavier now with the message behind it. The moonlight catches against the polished metal and the crescent gleams softly, like a silent answer to the moon from which it is born.I stare at the wolf if it is curled around, protecting it…or maybe it is trapping the wolf. I couldn't decide which of the interpretations to accept. A restless vibration hums deep in my bones, travelling from my arms down until it reaches my fingertips. They flutter like little birds caught in a trap, unable to stay still for even a second.Silently, I close trembling fingers around the pendant. It feels cold to touch, like a captured shard of winter, its porous surface stealing the warmth from my palm.“Menodora?" I look up to see Kova staring down
