SERAPHINA

~<>~

Th-the world… M-my world had gone silent.

The music, the clinking of glasses, and the hum of hundreds of voices had faded. It all vanished, replaced by a rhythmic, heavy thrumming in my ears that matched the frantic beating of my heart.

It’s t-the m-mate bo-bond…

It was screaming, but at the same time, it was a whisper, as if demanding and soothing simultaneously.

It felt raw, slamming into my soul the second Rexton blocked my path. My wolf, who had been pacing just because Rext

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   144. DAHLIA’S POV (5)

    DAHLIA~~Before I could make it out of the mansion, I felt a wave of energy hit me, burning through my veins like its sole purpose was to intimidate me. And it definitely did, especially since my powers were as weak as they had ever been. It also told me that I was about to receive a guest… the same one who visited me in the dungeon. Lila. An illusion of her wearing a flowing black dress emerged before me, and for the first time since I reached out and reconnected to her, she didn’t look like she was about to kill me. Instead, she looked at me like I had finally done something right after falling off track for many years. “I believe you have told him the lie you cooked up, and he still didn’t choose you,” Lila mumbled as if she had been watching me. And yes, she could since I had revived the connection between the coven and myself, regardless of how fragile the link was at the moment. “Also, I believe I have given you enough chance to chase your selfish desires, Dahlia. It’s

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   143. DAHLIA'S POV (4)

    DAHLIA~~Everything I said was true. The story was accurate, and I told it just as it happened. The only fact I omitted was that it didn’t happen to me. Or maybe it did. After all, I was one of the pretty girls whom the foolish human girl met and took back home. I might not be the main character in that story, but I was a prominent figure. After all, I benefited from it more than anyone else. Yet, I gave up all the benefits because after I met Rexton, I fell in love with him. I genuinely changed for him, turning my back on my people… the same people who had suffered great injustices at the hands of Lycans and werewolves. “I betrayed them for you, Rexton,” I whispered with angry tears rolling down my cheeks as I watched Rexton leave me in such a mess. But after everything, he still stabbed me in the back for that Lycan bitch. He still chose to humiliate me in her presence… But not anymore. I would no longer let this go on. My fingers clutched the tattered fabric of the dress

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   142. The Final Blow

    ALPHA REXTON~~I didn’t expect Seraphina to be back so soon, but when I perceived her calming scent, the bubbling lava-like anger I was about to unleash on Dahlia lost its heat, leaving me frozen like a torn man. I remained frozen until Dahlia spoke again, her words carrying the honesty I hadn’t heard from her in many years. “You have the chance now, Dahlia. Speak.” I said to her, her eyes shifting around the room like she was waiting for something… Something I couldn’t quite fathom. “Ask them to leave, Rexton…. I can’t speak the truth when these people are here—" “These people? You mean my Beta, the trusted Doctor who revealed your lies…” I cut her off, glaring at her as I added, “And the woman your lies almost sent to her grave?” “Rexton, please–” “Speak, Dahlia, or I will be forced to decide your punishment now.” I snarled, cutting her off so harshly she fell on her butt. She had been in the cell in the basement since the night I returned home. If Nicola hadn’t shown up

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   141. Innocent Crocodile

    SERAPHINA~~Ethan and I grew up together, but not once had I seen him so shocked. Not even when I thought I could take him down and counterattack him when I was just six years old. His jaw literally hit the gravel floor of the compound, and for a minute, he froze, his Beta brain calculating how this could have been possible. “H-how do you know this? Even the warriors at the border haven’t reported anything.” He asked me, his breath coming out shallow. I hesitated for a few seconds before I muttered, “Rexton kidnapped my daughter to get me here, and even though I thought about coming alone, Kieran wouldn’t let me.” At the mention of Kieran, Ethan’s face lit up for some reason that I later realized was respect. After all, they were both Betas, and Kieran had a long list of achievements. “You can’t tell Rexton this, but Kieran is close to the borders. He sighted the rebels and passed the information.” I chose to trust Ethan in that moment and also added, “He would have to sneak

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   140. War

    SERAPHINA~~“W-what?” I gasped through the bond, Kieran’s fear finally making sense to me. But I couldn’t help but still wonder if he was trying to pull my leg. Hell, I hoped he was just trying to pull my leg.Because… Celeste was here and vulnerable. Back at the Lycan Realm, the rebels couldn’t reach my daughter easily, but here in Crimson Moon Pack, all they had to do was cross the borders, and all hell would break loose. “I sighted them a few minutes ago. They have camped close to the borders but not close enough to be perceived.” Kieran’s voice came again; this time, he gave me more details. And I responded, my thoughts still shaky but better than they were a few seconds ago. “They must be planning a surprise attack.” “I figured, and that’s why I had to tell you to stay put—" “You think I should warn Rexton?” I asked not because I wouldn’t do that, but because I couldn’t believe Kieran was looking out for the one man he hated the most. Kieran’s response didn’t disappoint

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   139. The Burden

    SERAPHINA~~An apology… I have heard a million of those these past few weeks, but for the first time, my heart felt a wave of sincerity. One so strong I couldn’t overlook it or just walk away. I looked down at Elara Ashford, my hand tightening instinctively around Celeste’s waist. The cold gravel of the driveway must have been digging into Elara’s bare knees, but she didn’t seem to care. Her shoulders shook, her perfectly styled hair falling forward to hide a face that had only ever looked at me with cold disgust or conditional approval.Until this very moment. “Is this a trick?” Kia asked, though her voice lacked its usual venomous bite. Yes, even my Lycan was stunned into a hesitant silence by the sheer, unmasked grief radiating from the woman before us."Get up, Elara," I whispered, my voice no longer laced with malice but sounding drained by a sudden, heavy exhaustion. "Don't do this.""No," Elara choked out, her head slowly moving up, her tear-streaked face exposed to the

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   33. DAHLIA’S POV (1)

    DAHLIA’S POV~~I stared at the woman standing before me, and for the first time in years, I felt the cold prickle of genuine terror.She wasn’t supposed to be back. She was never meant to return, yet there she was, staring at me like I was nothing but a helpless fly she could stomp on if she wa

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   10. Little Ina

    SERAPHINA~~“There’s no way.”I couldn’t stop uttering those words under my breath. Not even when I sat at the long glass table to dine with the three people whose words and world have stunned me speechless. I stared at the lavish spread of food—delicacies I hadn’t seen all my life—but my stoma

    SERAPHINA~~“Don’t answer his call.” Kia growled at the back of my mind as I stared at my phone’s screen.One second, I got a text from him, and the next, a call from him, like he had become an impatient puppy. Although I haven’t opened the text, I couldn’t just ignore his call. Not when he st

    SERAPHINA~~The last thing I remember was the suffocating weight of the strong aura and the darkness pulling me under. But when my eyes fluttered open, the world was moving fast, yet steadily.I was lying on my back. On a plush leather seat, inside a spacious luxury car. The engine hummed silent
