The Luna's Blood Moon: She Refused To Bow CHAPTER 54: THE WRONG QUESTIONS
MENODORA'S POV The words are like a big mass of boulders, falling on the walls of my heart and shattering it into little shards of glass that feel like they're piercing deep into my lungs, making me unable to properly draw my breath. I look down at the comb that I am now clutching in my hand like it's the last thing holding me together. The pendant hidden in the inner pocket of my cloak feels too hot, like it's burning at the very skin on which it rests.A faint rhythmic pulse thrums beneath my fingers and the tremor in them would not stop.“No…no…no…this isn't…it isn't…fair,” my mind is broken and I can not form coherent thoughts. All my life, I lived believing that my father had abandoned me…abandoned my mother…even to her death. And now? Everything just seems to be happening at the same time, too much for my fragile mind to keep up with.“Why now? After all these years, why now?" I ask the one question that keeps nagging at my mind. I give myself an invisible pat on the back for b
The Luna's Blood Moon: She Refused To Bow CHAPTER 53: WOMAN BENEATH THE TREES
MENODORA'S POV We all stand transfixed in the same spot."I think…I think I have been followed,” the stranger who brought the comb whispers, his words cracking from his shaky voice. He is standing in an impossibly still posture, I'm not sure how is even breathing. His face is ashen, drained of all colour and his lower lips tremble slightly.As if on cue, from the edges of the trees, a single figure steps out from the cover of the shadows, into the sunlight. It turns out to be a woman…not too old and not too young either. She is taller, not as tall as Orvax and Kova but slightly towering over me. She has dark hair which she wears braided over one shoulder. Her clothes are mostly hidden by a long reddish cloak that she has draped over her slim frame.She doesn't seem to be in possession of any weapons, at least not where my eyes can reach enough to see them. She stops to wait, just a few paces separating her from the gate.Orvax takes a step forward on instinct. His body came between m
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
The Luna's Blood Moon: She Refused To Bow CHAPTER 46: FOUND YOU
ORVAX'S POVI hold his gaze in mine.“I may not be able to save everyone, but I can save this one.”With that, I walk away, Menodora on my mind. I have an idea of where she might have gone. Not because of any mate bonds or mind links communicating between us, but simply because I built this place a
The Luna's Blood Moon: She Refused To Bow CHAPTER 45: THE ONE WHO LOVED HER
ORVAX'S POV The moment is shattered, instantly lost when my father lets out a low chuckle.“That's quite amazing, isn't it?" I turn to look at him, the look in my eyes is so dangerous, enough to bend iron effortlessly. His expression only grows taut, his mouth curling into a razor-thin crescent.
The Luna's Blood Moon: She Refused To Bow CHAPTER 43: THE NAME THAT SHOULD NEVER BE SPOKEN
ORVAX'S POV“No…” the words do not form in my vocal cords nor does it leave my lips…at least not yet. But I feel it echo through my skull, pressing against the walls of my medulla like a life threatening tumour. The moment my father touches upon the mere idea of Menodora’s father, a fear so viscera
The Luna's Blood Moon: She Refused To Bow CHAPTER 42: THE BLOOD THEY FEARED
MENODORA'S POV A sudden quiet falls over the hall, pressing against my ears and making every held breath and rapid heartbeat feel overwhelmingly loud in the empty space. My pulse slams against my ribs like the wings of a trapped bird trying to escape. There it is, the one thing that nobody wants t
