The shadow in the fire light was unmoving at first. It was standing perfectly still, staring at us. My heart felt like it was beating my ribcage open, I could practically feel it beating in my throat

Renn stood like a statue, his spear pointed at the dark. "Show yourself," he growled, his voice low and dangerous. "Now.

Kira's dagger was already out, its blade flashing in the dying fires. Renn stood with his spear raised up, his muscles tensed and narrowed eyes fixed on the shadows.

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    Turning The Tables

    Liora's POV "Mum... I was scared..." Finn whimpered against my shoulder."I'm sorry, baby," I said, my voice cracking as I patted his little head. My fingers intertwined with his soft hair, ruffling it even more as I squeezed him as tightly as I could.I knew the storm wasn't over yet, but the relief that washed through me was overwhelming. At least he was warm, he was breathing, and he was back in my arms. The heavy, dark room with its copper smell didn't seem quite as terrifying with his small heartbeat pressed against mine.Then, I noticed a sudden change in the air. A cold, thick pressure began to build, a heavy wolf aura emitting from Martins.I looked up, still holding Finn close. Martins was now hovering over the spot where the young-looking witch had fallen. His massive frame was tense, and his breathing came in short, angry snorts. He knelt down on one knee, his leather trousers scraping against the rough floor boards. He placed two thick fingers directly onto Lydia's chest

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    Fight For Finn

    Liora's POV "We finally meet again," Ronan said.I saw Alpha Martins' back stiffen up. For a split second, he looked completely rattled. Then he forced a fake, slow shrug, relaxed his large shoulders, and turned around to face us with a malicious smile. I didn't care about his grin or his posturing. My eyes went straight past his heavy chest, locking onto the only person who I risked all this for, My baby.The young-looking woman next to Martins held his tiny wrist. She had the smooth skin of someone in her mid-twenties, but the cold, empty look in her amber eyes gave her away. This was Lydia, the witch Ella had warned me about. She had used her dark magic to freeze her age, looking decades younger than she actually was."Mum!!" Finn screamed the moment his green eyes reached me. "Mummy, you came for me!"His little face scrunched up, big tears spilling down his cheeks. He tried to yank his arm back, his small sneakers skidding on the cold stone floor as he fought to break free. See

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    Inside The Gates

    "Impostors! Everyone take cover!" The radio on the wall blared with a loud alarm, disrupting the quiet. "Perimeter breach at the western fence line! All guards to your stations!"Alpha Martins didn't even flinch. He turned away from his dark desk, a slow smile spreading under his gray beard. He looked up to meet Lydia’s eyes. She was already standing by the doorway, her amber eyes catching the dim yellow light from the single candle. She was smiling right back at him."They are finally here," Martins said, his voice dropping into a low rumble. He moved his hands in an exaggerated, relaxed wave, completely unbothered by the warning bells outside. "Time to deal with Voss. Let's get this over with.""I can't wait for the look on Maxwell's face when he finds out," Lydia smirked, leaning against the stone doorframe. The air around her smelled faintly of lavender powder and bitter herbs. "The high-and-mighty former Alpha. He actually believed that bringing Isolde into his pack would strengt

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    Counter Trap

    Liora's POV Ronan had Isolde pinned hard against the wall in a chokehold. "Why would you be cruel enough to go after a child?" he asked, his deep voice shaking.I watched his eyes. They were slowly turning from their usual emerald green into a bright, lethal green. You could tell he was struggling to keep himself in control. His knuckles were white against her skin, and his chest rose and fell in short, sharp hitches. This was the first time I had ever seen the high-and-mighty Alpha lose his cool like this."Why would you get an innocent child involved in your mess?" he asked again through his teeth, doing his best not to snap her neck right now.Isolde scoffed, even though her breath was cutting short. She looked right into his glowing eyes with that same arrogant smile she always wore. "You can't do anything to me, Ronan. You know that, right?"She tapped her fingers against his wrist, her dark nails scratching his skin. "I am the only one who can guarantee you take your precious k

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    Power and Ploy

    "A seer?" Alpha Martins asked, his voice dripping with pure sarcasm. He turned his head slowly away from the narrow glass window, the candle on the iron stand flickering and casting long shadows across his face. He let out a dry, low chuckle that filled the cold space. "The last I checked, Lydia, you took care of the last seers years ago. You told me yourself that the bloodline was finished, didn't you?"Lydia did not answer him right away. She just stood still where she was. She squinted her amber eyes, her fingers moving up to rub her chin as she got lost in deep thought. The scent of old lavender and bitter dust seemed to grow heavier around her as she replayed the little boy's blank look in her mind."Yes, I made sure I did," she paused, her voice drifting off into a quiet whisper as she stared back at the dark hallway. "I watched them go down. Unless... unless their child somehow got away from the compound before the fire caught the roof.""No child would have gotten away from th

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    A Ploy In The Dark

    "Why am I here?" Finn asked.He sat small in an oversized wooden chair, his legs dangling a few inches above the dirt floor. His little fingers clutched his red plastic block, squeezing it tight. He looked up, his big green eyes wide but steady.A woman sat right across from him on the edge of a heavy table. She was tall, with sharp, striking features and dark hair pinned back loosely, though a few stray strands fell over her pale face. Her eyes were an unsettling shade of amber, dark and hollow, shifting constantly like a predator watching a cage. She wore a long, flowing dark dress covered in dust from the road, and a heavy gold necklace glinted under the dim yellow light bulb hanging from the ceiling. She leaned forward, bringing the scent of heavy lavender perfume and sweet makeup right into his space.This woman was Lydia."You are here because your daddy is a bad man, sweetie," Lydia said. She kept her voice soft, mimicking a sweet, gentle tone.But Finn didn't lean in. He didn

    The heavy silence on the other end of the phone line was suffocating. Theo stared at the phone in Gage’s hand, his chest tightening with every passing second."Liora? Are you there?" Gage called out, his voice dropping into a deeper, more urgent tone."I'm coming home right now," Liora’s voice fina

    LIORA'S POV The week following the beam incident had been quiet, but it was a kind of silence which came with the feeling that ‘this is the calm before the storm’.

    KIRA’S POVI kept running after Liora and I went our separate ways. Her words were still echoing in my head. *Sometimes I still need this.* She wasn’t wrong.
