The Mute Luna Bride The homecoming…or not
ELORA He said his plan was to train me till I become stronger. That I deserved a second chance at life. I deserved to be regarded and seen as something more than my disability, but in that very moment, I saw through him. Whatever his plans were of helping me, of training me, it was all born from a place of malice. The hatred in his eyes when he spoke of his people told me all I needed to know. Yes. He wanted me to get stronger, but through ways his people were punished. When he turned his back on me and began walking away, I fought hard to pull myself from the ground. Something had happened. I could feel the shift and the sudden surge of strength within me. Was it Sierra? Or was I just so pissed I could have killed him at that moment? “Here, let me help you.” A girl offered me her hand, but I didn’t want to take it. She had short brown hair and black eyes as dark as onyx stones. Her face was one I had seen on the training field a couple of times. I looked away from her and slowl

RYKER Elora didn’t seem to want anything to do with Kael Stormrider. If anything, she seemed to want to be kept as far away from him as possible. “I don’t want him to know I’m still alive.”“Keep me away from him, please.”Which was the reaction I had expected. No one in their right minds could blame her for being wary of him. I mean, who tries to kill their mate after marking them? If I were her, I’ll be wary of him as well. Yet, I was restless. I didn’t know how, but I knew Elora more than she believed I did. Now that she knew he would be coming here, there was no way she was going to stay still like a sitting duck. She was far more stubborn and curious than that. I couldn’t sleep throughout the night. I didn’t want to show it, but a thought remained ingrained in my mind. If Kael Stormrider decided my answers were not enough for him, what would happen? I would not hesitate to take his head off if he dared hurt any of my people, but would we be ready to deal with the after effec

KAEL I heaved a sigh and rose to my feet. He was seemingly right. By logic, he wasn’t supposed to know about Elora. Varek Valewind made sure that knowledge of her never went past the tower she had been kept in as a child. Selene Valewind was his shining star, and the people of Stormrider sang her praises. She was their Luna afterall, my wife. She had also been terribly displeased when I told her of my decision to search for Elora. “Are you really going to leave me behind and venture into the enemy’s den because of a girl you know is dead? She was attacked and killed. Why should it matter?” Selene had said. I couldn’t understand why she was so full of hate towards her sister. “Why should it matter? How can you ask me that, Selene? She was your sister! If she’s been killed by the enemy, don’t you think she deserves vengeance? Don’t you even want to see her body? Don’t you want to give her the burial rites she deserves?” Selene let out a scoff as she rose to her feet that night. W

ELORA I didn’t know it until I saw him in the flesh. Kael Stormrider, the man I had spent all my days watching and loving, praying and wishing to the goddess that he was mine, was seated right in front of me. After Ryker had told me he would be arriving at his camp, I knew I had to take a glimpse of him. Closure was important in my journey, even if wouldn’t come from a direct conversation. I had spent days dreading the moment Kael would find me. I imagined it a thousand different ways. Maybe his sword at my throat, or his hands around my neck. In none of these my numerous thoughts had I imagined standing in silence, watching him from mere feet away, with my heart pounding so hard it felt like it would burst through my ribs. He must have lost sense of our mate bond after he made love to Selene. That was the reason for the intense pain I felt the night I almost lost my life, right? I had never imagined him refusing to claim me, even to his enemy. The moment Ryker asked the questio

RYKERThe flames surrounded us like a beast, devouring everything in its path.“What is happening?” Elora asked through our mindlink, jumping to her feet. She looked around with dread filled eyes as fire engulfed the wooden walls around us. It didn’t take long before the fire spread to the wooden boards underneath our feet. “What’s going on? How could this happen?” Smoke choked the air, curling around my throat, but it wasn’t the fire that made my blood run cold.It was her. Elora stood frozen in the center of the burning room, her wide, glassy eyes darting between the collapsing beams and me. Panic twisted her delicate features. Something in me twisted as her breaths came in sharp, desperate gasps.She was scared. Terrified. As she should have been. I needed the right amount of fear from her to make her survival instincts kick in. Yet, I found her squirming so fucking irritating.“You need to calm down, Elora.”She turned to shoot me a glare. “Calm down?”she signed.“Can you

ELORA Was he fucking kidding me? I was the only one who could save us? Really? Didn’t he just tell me that he was going to leave me here to die, to save myself? Suddenly, for some reason, he couldn’t make it out, and I was supposed to help the both of us out of this?! The heat pressed against my skin like molten iron. It felt awful and unbearable. I had been trapped in many places in my life, but a room lit up in flames had never been one of them. My breath came in shallow gasps with smoke that clogged my lungs. The fire continued to rage, crackling and roaring as it ate away at the walls, the floor, everything. It was coming at us with a speed none of us could stop. I couldn’t believe this was happening. Had he really asked someone to set the place on fire? He set this entire fucking trap for me! As I looked at Ryker, my hands trembled from the molten rage that coursed through my veins. My heart pounded viciously against the tired muscular walls of my chest. “You were goi

RYKER I dropped my towel on the floor and let my body feel the breeze of the midnight air. A cold shower was what was needed to take my mind off everything that had happened in the last few hours. How could I have been so silly? Did my anger towards her cause me to put myself in danger? What if she wasn’t able to save us? I would have been able to contact Kiara as our wolves had a strong bond, but it would have taken a while. I heaved a sigh as I climbed into my bed. It was clear I needed to be more careful. I couldn’t let my feelings towards her get the better of me. It had put me in danger already, what was to say it wouldn’t put my people next time? They were all that mattered to me. Yet, for some twisted as fuck reason, Elora’s face wouldn’t leave my mind.Even then, as I lay in my bed, staring at the ceiling, I could still see her tear streaked face bathed in moonlight, with wind curling around her like a goddess-like extension of herself. Strong. Defiant. Beautiful.She h

ELORA I could smell him from the front of my tent. As I slowly took off my burnt dress, Sierra howled softly within me. “No, Sierra.” I scolded my wolf. “We wouldn’t be speaking to him. Not after what he did to us.”She didn’t seem to care though. She continued to make those soft purring noises, pining for him. Frustrated, I heaved a sigh and climbed into bed, making sure to face the part of my tent away from the entrance. I had to be wary of him from now on.“What does he want anyway? Has he come to try to burn down my tent now?” “Why don’t you hear him out at least?”My eyes shot open. “Hear him out?” I sat up straight, faintly annoyed. If only I could see her face to face, I’d have wanted her to look me in the eyes and repeat what she had just. “You were there, Sierra. If you hadn’t saved us, he'd have gotten us both killed! He didn’t even think of that. He hated me so much that he didn’t stop to think of what would happen if he couldn’t put away the fire.”“Maybe he’s here

The Mute Luna Bride You never should have come back
ELORA I wasn’t dead yet. I could tell when my eyelids slowly parted to reveal the ceiling above me. I had a feeling heaven would be a lot more overwhelming. But that wasn’t the reason my eyelids parted completely. No. It was the very familiar smell that hit my nostrils. The fresh linens, flowers, and something sweet in the air. Then, the pain followed. It was dull, but it was there. I had been through a lot in the past couple of days, and I wasn’t even sure where I was yet. I had managed to get a glimpse of my pack’s flag before I fell unconscious. I wondered if I was in Stormrider, or in the den of another evil prince who had a vendetta against my father. I blinked up at a chandelier I didn’t recognize. The ceiling had gold accents. The bed I was lying on was way too soft. This room didn’t feel safe. If anything, it felt like a trap.I tried to sit up, resting my head against the wooden headboard. Despite my body’s ache, I could move. Bandages covered most of me, but I could
The Mute Luna Bride In the flesh
KAEL I loved my people, I really did. But council meetings like these, about things that didn’t matter as much as the lives of our subjects, were my least favorite part of being alpha king. The fact that I had to sit through them was more than enough torture for me. Honestly. I’d been zoning out for a good ten minutes when Elder Myrick launched into another one of his legendary speeches about tradition and reverence for the Hunt. I tried to listen. Believe me when I say I really did, but the man could talk a tree to sleep.The annual hunting feast was important. I knew that. It was one of those royal duties I had to act excited about, even if I couldn’t care less about chasing down a bull with a pack of nobles who thought bathing was optional.I leaned forward, just to feign interest, when I caught Darius standing by the doorway. He was standing there like a damn statue. A long, distant, yet confused look in those narrow green eyes of his. I had known my beta long enough to unde
The Mute Luna Bride Surrender
ELORA I didn’t expect a parade. But I thought… maybe it’ll be harder for someone to say goodbye. They had been like a family to me in these past days. I didn’t know how to explain it. But being cast away like this, it hurt more than my father’s hatred ever could. With my father, I could tell myself he was reminded of his misfortune everytime he looked at me. But with these people, the wolves of the south who were supposed to be my enemies, it was different. The wind was cold against my face as I stood just outside the borders of the camp, my cloak pulled tight against me. A small bag was slung over my right shoulder. It contained everything I’ll need for my trip back home. At least, that was what Ophelia said. The bruises from the fight hadn’t fully healed despite Sierra being a silver wolf. However, it didn’t hurt that much anymore. Not as much as the silence that greeted me while I walked slowly, with aching knees, out of the camp. Hoping, praying, that he would change his
The Mute Luna Bride The accusation
ELORA Flashes of white, bright white, craved to blind me. Then came the silver. Lightning…so much lightning. I pressed my eyes shut with force. I could see teeth tearing into flesh. The images of blood…so much blood, pooling beneath me in a thick red sea. My heart pounded against the tired muscular walls of my chest. I could feel my limbs twitch, and something…very deep inside me clawed through my skin, desperate to get out. Then it all went dark again.Until it didn’t.My eyes flew open, and I jerked upward, drenched in a pool of my sweat. But my body had only moved forward a tiny bit when it stopped with a harsh rattle.Chains? It hasn’t registered into my mind. Not yet. Not until I turned to my right and saw the cold metal biting into my wrists.To the left, and it was there. I looked down, panic swelling in my throat as bile rested on my tongue. The cold steel bound my feet as well. I was in shackles. Chained like a feared, dangerous criminal. Why? What the hell had I
The Mute Luna Bride An uncontrollable storm
AUTHOR In the former beta’s quarters in the Stormrider pack, the heavy oak doors slammed open with a crash that shook the stone walls. Athlea, his wife and mother of the Luna, stormed into the great hall, her blood red robe clung to her curvy body like a second skin. By the hearth, Varek sat slouched in a carved chair, swirling a goblet of dark wine lazily between his fingers as he stared outside the window. He didn’t notice her step in. He should have heard from the leader of the mercenaries by now. They were yet to return with Elora’s head to claim their reward money. “Old man!” Athlea roared, but Varek didn’t flinch at his wife’s rude entrance. In fact, he barely looked up.It was typical of her. Athlea’s lip curled in disgust as she crossed the room, her boots striking sharp against the cold floor.In her hand, she clutched a bloodied scroll. “You sit here and drink,” she hissed, throwing the scroll at his feet, “while everything falls to pieces at our feet, and under our
The Mute Luna Bride Before they kill us all
RYKERI had never seen anything like it. In all my years, it was the most powerful thing I had ever seen. Elora cried out for the power of the moon goddess, just as I was told she would be able to, and the goddess wasted no time in answering. She sent lightning from the heavens, and the moment the lightning struck her, everything stopped.Time itself seemed to fold in on us, suspended between one heartbeat and the next.Elora was at the center of it all. She glowed with the lightning coursing through her skin. Her eyes beamed with a dangerous red glow. I stepped back in awe of her. She was terrifying, quick, unstoppable. When she moved, she moved with a force faster than light, faster than my thoughts. The rogues didn’t stand a chance.One by one, she tore through them, snapping their necks with her teeth. Heads rolled, she broke their limbs with ease, leaving them bleeding out on the ground.Torn apart by wind blades so sharp the air itself screamed. She wasn’t fighting alone,
The Mute Luna Bride Kill them all
ELORA Both our gazes snapped in the direction of the cry. Across the fire, a figure crumpled to the ground. Everyone around the fire screamed and scattered into several parts as the figure became even clearer. He had blood pouring from the gash in his gut. Behind him, shadows poured from the darkness as rogues, snarling and howling like demons unleashed from the deepest, darkest parts of hell. In the blink of an eye, Ryker was gone. He rushed to the center, summoning his warriors behind him. “we’re under attack! Warriors, fall behind me now!” I watched him turn to Odessa.“Take the women and children into the woods, now! Hide them, make sure they would not be seen! They must not be found no matter what,” his voice cracked as he sniffed in. Was that a tear from the great Ryker Veylard? “Please. They all have to survive. Please.” She nodded and called on the women and children to gather around her. Ophelia offered to stay back to make sure she could heal the wounded soldiers w
The Mute Luna Bride The bon fire
ELORA Sun rise met the South in very high spirits. I had woken up to find myself in my tent. My right hand brushed my cheeks gently, feeling the heat on them. I couldn’t help the smile that plastered itself on my face. Had Ryker carried me all the way here? “He did, didn’t he?” Sierra whispered softly in my ear. She had also been stretched out by Ryker’s wolf after all. “It smells like joy out there.”I nodded, flipping the sheets away from my body and planting my feet on the ground. It was the festival of the South’s rebirth, almost two decades since they all lost everything and had to start afresh. Anya had said this festival meant a lot to them. They honored their fallen heroes, welcomed their spirits to speak to their children, their wives and husbands, and bid them farewell after. Odessa and Ophelia had told me all about it before. If a spirit stayed too long with the living, it could begin to harbor evil intentions. Regardless, there’s nothing I wouldn’t have given to be
The Mute Luna Bride Find me a seer
KaelMy father had his mistress with him on the night I sought to talk about my nightmares. It had become a part of his daily routine to bring his foreign whores into his bed. Now that he no longer had responsibilities to the pack, and I had taken over his throne. I returned to my room and made sure to visit him when he was interested in dealing with real world affairs. Thank the goddess, he was finally caught in his smoking room, where he loved to polish his weapons and smoke. It was no surprise to me that the room smelled of steel and smoke.Still, I hated it.The heavy stone walls pressed in on me as I stood before my father, Kranos, and his beta, Varek. Varek Valewind still functioned as the grand commander of my father’s army. They were tied up in a conversation when I stormed in. My father looked up from his table with a raised brow. “Son.” “Father,” I turned to Varek. “General.” He gave me a courtesy bow, which I returned. “My dreams have worsened,” I said, voice rou
