The Rise of a Forsaken Luna 184. KIERAN’S POV (24)
KIERAN~~It… it failed. They… the witches. They have failed?My weary, burning eyes opened widely for the first time since the eclipse started. My disbelief was plastered all over my face, but it was nothing compared to what I could read on the witches’ faces. “What did you just say?” Jason, the bastard and betrayer of his own kind, gasped, just as confused and uncertain.Lila, the once arrogant coven leader, looked like her world had ended. She looked like she didn’t know how to move or talk… like a frozen pillar of unshaken but obviously trembling ice. “I asked you a question, Witch!” Jason growled, his hands trembling as he grabbed Lila by the shoulder. But she didn't look at him. Her eyes were glued to the base of the altar, where the crimson light was actively leaking backwards.“Say something!” Jason snapped again. But instead of a response, a choked, bloody cough escaped her lips as she stumbled backward, her hand flying to her chest. On the altar, the darkened light th
The Rise of a Forsaken Luna 183. KIERAN’S POV (23)
KIERAN~~I… I failed. I failed Celeste… and– and Ina. My body shook with a squeezing pain that left me no choice but to crumble right before the barrier that remained unbroken, even though we had spent the last hour trying to take it down. Sweet air left my lungs, as if my body had decided that I do not deserve to breathe anymore… and it would be right because how could I? How could I inhale when Celeste was dying? How could I have failed her like this? How could I let her down? Let her die like she wasn’t a very important part of my life. Like she was some being that could be sacrificed and replaced after…. “Argh!”The guttural scream tore past my lips, ripping my throat raw as I slammed my bloody fists into the dirt. Completely useless. Dead weight. Just like me.I could feel all the Lycan warriors, including Jesse, giving up. I could feel them withdraw. I could also feel the quiet but very strong celebration from the witches we failed to stop before this very second. I co

ALPHA REXTON~~Everything was happening so fast. Way too fast for my werewolf mind to grasp. But the paternal instincts I didn’t know I had in me until the second I saw that child tied to the altar in nothing but a filmy white dress that made her look like a sacrificial lamb did more than keep up. In fact, I could relate really well when Kieran exclaimed, his voice defying the law of nature as it ripped through the air like a sharpened knife. “The chanting witches are keeping the barrier up. Look at them!” Kieran called our attention to the witches beyond our reach. We all saw them wobbling on their feet due to the fatigue plastered all over their faces. They were exhausting themselves to keep us out, burning through their own life force to ensure the eclipse finished the job before we could touch them or snatch Celeste off their blood-sucking altar. “They are weakened by our efforts,” Jesse noted, his blue eyes narrowing to razor-sharp points as he analyzed their slow movem
The Rise of a Forsaken Luna 181. KIERAN’S POV (22)
KIERAN~~“Claire found her.”Those three words from Jesse slammed into my chest like a blow, instantly shattering the suffocating weight of the panic that had been clawing at my throat for the past seventeen hours.But that relief lasted only a minute. Because the moment I looked up at Jesse, the stern tightness around his mouth told me that finding her didn’t mean she was safe.“Where, Jesse? Where is she?” I demanded, my hands clenching into fists as my system used every bit of strength I had in closing the distance between Cekeste and me. But it still didn’t feel like I was running fast enough. “Yes, we aren’t,” Alan grumbled within me, his nerves falling apart just as much as mine. "We have barely over an hour left… the sky is changing and—" My Lycan didn’t get to finish that statement before Jesse gave the other part of the news that Claire, his favorite warrior and the only one he would trust with searching for Celeste while we battled, had shared with him. “She was sig

ALPHA REXTON~~It wasn’t until the Lycan Warriors with us began to distribute bottles of the potion that came in handy that I realized the kind of mind that Jesse has. I finally understood why he was a terrifying and respected war master. Even though I had fought several wars, I couldn’t help but be in awe after the Lycan explained Jesse’s plan to my men and me. “We are to take the potions and divide into two groups from here.” A Lycan female warrior, whom I believed was Jesse’s second in command, announced, her voice soft but reechoing with authority. She paced around us all as she added, “One group will move towards the enemies that we have sighted, and the other group will begin the search for Princess Celeste.”The strategic brilliance of it stunned me. Jesse hadn’t just brought an army; he had brought an adaptable, multi-layered war tactic designed to dismantle the coven's chaotic terrain and anything they could throw at us.While Kieran and I had been drowning in our resp
The Rise of a Forsaken Luna 179. KIERAN’S POV (21)
KIERAN~~I should have seen it coming. I should have known that running straight towards the scent I had perceived would lead to nothing but doom. After all, it was too easy. Way too fucking easy. And Alan tried to warn me. Even Jesse did. However, I didn’t listen, running wildly and blindly through the magically weaponized forest that surrounded what we would soon know was the ancestral coven of the witches. I didn’t heed any warnings and failed to see or perceive the vile trap that stood a few feet away from me until I almost bumped into it. Yes, them, because after running for a few minutes, I didn’t find Celeste. Instead, I found Alpha Jason holding what I recognized as her dress, wearing a wild, devilish smirk on his face.And behind him were hundreds of the mutated army we thought we had eradicated in the last war that happened in Crimson Moon Pack. “Welcome….” Alpha Jason’s voice boomed through the forest after Jesse, and I stopped dead in our tracks. I knew I didn’t

SERAPHINA~~It’s happening tomorrow. The gala that I have dreaded for the past week will happen tomorrow, and while I genuinely looked forward to picking Dr. Nicola’s brain, I still wish I didn’t have to attend."But you have to." Kia's thoughts collided with mine. "You know how important this i

ALPHA REXTON~~The feel of her lush, juicy lips on mine caused my heart to quicken with excitement. I heard myself moan into the kiss, feeling a deep sense of relief because the long period of yearning was finally over. My arms snaked slowly around her waist, tracing the familiar curves as I pu

SERAPHINA~~“We are finally free.” Kia hummed happily in my mind the minute we crossed the invisible borderline. The air also changed, not just with the drop in the temperature, but also with the absence of the choking atmosphere of Crimson Moon Pack. The last time I felt this shift, I wanted
