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 silently, and the air smelled of mountain pine and expensive scents, vastly different from what I was used to.

Then reality crashed into my soul like a furious wave.

“Celeste!” I gasped, bolting upright.

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   176. Great Healer

    ALPHA REXTON~~All eyes turned to me the second I stepped into the lab—all but Ethan’s. I would have loved to claim that I noticed the tension in the space, but I didn’t. Not when I was carrying what I believed was a bigger, thicker tension on my shoulders. Not when I had had to run all the way from my mansion just to get three out of the four men in the lab. “We have to go… Now!" Those were the first words I let out. I didn’t even wait for anyone to tell me what had been happening or to ask questions. I couldn’t. After all, we didn’t have time on our side. “Y-yes… we have to go.” Kieran stunned me when he uttered those words in response, looking as dazed as he was pale. I didn’t expect him to agree with me because he didn’t know what I had just discovered. If only I had known that he had discovered a fact more terrifying than the one my Gamma sent to me through the mind link about ten minutes ago. I have been trying to reach Ethan so I could inform him. However, his mind h

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   175. KIERAN’S POV (19)

    KIERAN~~“Help!” Ethan exclaimed, beads of sweat trickling down his face even after he stepped into the air-conditioned lab. “Help her, please." He looked entirely unraveled. Like a Beta completely stripped of his usual calculation and pride, reduced to pure, trembling terror. In his arms, Remi looked frighteningly fragile. Her head lolled back against his chest. Her skin was a scary gray, and the faint but erratic hitch of her breath was the only sign that she was still alive.“Over here…” Nicola matched Ethan’s tone, rushing to clear up the other bed in the lab. “Lay her down, Beta. Carefully.” Ethan didn’t need to be told twice. He stepped forward with staggering but long strides, lowering Remi onto the crisp white sheets as if she were made of fragile glass. The moment his hands left her body, he looked lost, his fingers curling into tight, helpless fists against his sides as he watched Nicola instantly begin checking her vitals.I stepped back slightly to give them room, b

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   174. KIERAN’S POV (18)

    KIERAN~~I have put everything in place. Or so I thought as I sat beside my Ina, staring at her face and hoping that she wouldn’t give up… that she wouldn’t lose the fight.Her skin was far too pale, the delicate veins beneath her eyelids showing a faint, worrying shade of blue that made my own chest tighten with an agonizing restriction. I reached out, my large, calloused hand engulfing hers, completely desperate to transfer even a fraction of my Lycan vitality into her fading soul.To sync with her, just like she did when I was slipping away after getting poisoned. But I had discovered that I couldn’t do that even though I was an S-rank Lycan as well. “It's something only you can, Ina… I can’t do any of this.” I muttered, eyes fixed on her, because while I waited to hear from Ethan and Jesse, she was the only person that mattered to me.Slowly, I added, ignoring the fact that Nicola was sitting a few feet away from me and most likely staring at me. “You can do anything, but

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   173. To The End

    ALPHA REXTON~~Everyone around me was doing everything in their power to get the child I put in danger back home. Remi was still reading the stars even though she had promised that we would get the prediction hours ago. I believe it was proving to be harder than she anticipated, or maybe the strain on her recovering body was forcing her to move at an agonizingly slow pace.Either way, the delay was eating Ethan alive from the inside out, and I couldn’t even blame the man.After all, he had many people to worry about. Not to forget Kieran. The Lycan Beta had grown restless, and even though he had been moving from one meeting to another within the past twenty-four hours to ensure that our plans didn’t fail, he still found time to check on Seraphina.I could tell that his focus was entirely split between the battle to come and the quiet room where Seraphina was sleeping.“You feel like we aren’t doing enough, right?” Kane, who had been awfully quiet since I left the Beta’s Mansion

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   172. The Trap

    ALPHA REXTON~~“Yes, we do know where to look.” Kieran answered, but even I could hear the restraint in his voice. From the look on his face, I could tell that Ethan didn’t miss it as well and we both kept quiet, waiting for the expected conclusion of that response. Kieran’s eyes darted between us, and even though it took him a few seconds, his lips parted, and he added, “But at the same time, we don’t know where this place is located. So, no. We do not know where to start our search.” “I… I don’t get it.” Ethan blurted almost immediately, holding Kieran’s gaze intensely. “When Ina and I went to see Dahlia, she mentioned that Celeste had been kidnapped by her twin sister, who plans to sacrifice her on their ancestral altar during the next Blood Moon eclipse.”Kieran began to explain, his voice losing its usual spark as he retold Dahlia’s words. “So we know where to look but we don't know where the ancestral altar is located…. At least I have no idea.”Hearing the hope in his

  • The Rise of a Forsaken Luna   171. KIERAN’S POV (17)

    KIERAN~~“Yes. We have to know when the next Blood Moon Eclipse will happen because the witches plan to sacrifice Celeste on that day.”Answering that question was tough for me because it felt like I was admitting my greatest fear, but my feelings were nothing in comparison to what Ethan and Remi had to endure. I didn’t know it then, but those two were about to make the biggest sacrifice of their lives. And even though Rexton knew it before he brought us here, he didn’t hesitate. In fact, he came here hoping that the duo would make the sacrifice regardless of the consequences. “You are the only Seer in the pack, Remi. I wouldn’t have asked you if we had any other options.” Rexton uttered, his remorse loud but not as loud as his desperation. “Seraphina is slipping into a coma, and she will never wake up if she doesn’t feel Celeste's presence and—"“We understand your fears, Alpha Rexton. In fact, we are scared as well, but using her powers while she is pregnant and after what Dah
