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’.

After the beam incident, Silas wasn't just a supervisor anymore; he was one of us. Marcus had cleared him, the rest of us got more comfortable around him. Even Kira no longer looked at him with her suspicious sharp eyes that could pierce into your soul.

For a whole week, the "ghosts" Silas had been complaining about seemed to have

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    The Alleyway Trap

    Silas walked through the industrial part of town. He had been playing a game of hide-and-seek for the last hour, turning corners and doubling back just to see if that black car was still following him. He couldn’t see it anymore, but that weird, he still had the heavy feeling at the back of his neck told him he wasn't alone.When he reached the old textile mill, he looked at the long way home and then at the dark, narrow alley right next to him. He knew it was risky, but he wanted this to end. He stepped into the alley, his boots crunching on broken glass and old soda cans as he walked.He was halfway through when the shadows at both ends of the alley started to make a move.Four guys stepped out from the darkness. They were dressed in all-black tactical gear, wearing masks that covered everything but their eyes. They didn't look like regular street thugs; they moved like they were well-trained and meant business."Give it up, Vane," the one in the middle said. His voice sounded weird

    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’. After the beam incident, Silas wasn't just a supervisor anymore; he was one of us. Marcus had cleared him, the rest of us got more comfortable around him. Even Kira no longer looked at him with her suspicious sharp eyes that could pierce into your soul.For a whole week, the "ghosts" Silas had been complaining about seemed to have vanished. No more ‘falling beams’, no melting chains, and no feeling of being watched from a distance. It was the first time since this library Project I felt like I could actually breathe.I sat in the temporary office trailer on Monday evening, staring at a stack of invoices that seemed to double every time I blinked. The rest of the crew had already packed up the truck, their voices drifting through the thin walls as they joked about whose turn it was to cook dinner."You’re going to burn a h

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    The Secret

    There was silence all over the greenhouse and the only sound heard was Mia’s own jagged breathing. Leo stood right in front of her, his dark eyes fixed on hers, waiting for the truth he had already guessed."How come you are a hybrid?" Mia finally asked, her voice steadying as she realized there was no point in lying anymore.Leo let out a long, heavy sigh and leaned back against a rusted table. "My mum was human," he said simply. "She died after giving birth to me. My dad is a wolf, a high-ranked one, as you noticed. He moved us here to this human town because a hybrid doesn't exactly fit into a pack of 'pure' warriors. To them, I’m just a half- wolf. Someone who has the senses but is still wolfless. So I was just like an extra weight to them.”He looked down at his fingers. "It’s a lonely way to live, Mia. I’m not wolf enough for the packs, and I’m definitely not normal enough for the humans. That’s why I keep to myself. I seek solace in my art because the canvas doesn’t care about

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    The Doubt

    The lock clicking into place was the only sound in Mia’s room. She didn’t turn on the light as she entered, she just slumped against the door, staring into the darkness of her room.The image of Leo's dad and that scent of his kept replaying in her mind. She had felt different auras before but none of them was as suffocating as his. It was the scent of a high-ranking wolf, someone with power in their blood that felt as heavy as lead. He was likely a Beta, or maybe something even more dangerous.But how?She replayed every moment she had spent with Leo. She had been inches from his face, their breath mingling, and yet... nothing. There was no spark of a wolf, no predatory heat, just the smell of graphite, rain, and human sweat. They looked so much alike, they had same messy dark hair, the same jawline, the same intensity in their gaze so Leo being adopted seemed impossible.Why me? she wondered, her chest tightening. Out of everyone at Oakhaven High, why had the son of a powerful wolf

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    The Fragile Mask

    Mia remained huddled behind the canvases, her heart was beating so violently against her ribs she was certain it would shatter them. The scent, that cold, iron-like wolf musk was from Leo's dad right? She was sure she had gotten that scent immediately when he passed her. Besides, the scent still lingered in the air, clashing with the scent of citrus and sandalwood from the Cologne Leo had sprayed earlier.Leo waited for sometime, his body was as rigid as a statue, before he finally moved. He pulled the closet door open, his face pale and eyes wide with a frantic sort of relief."He’s gone," Leo whispered, reaching a hand out to her. "Mia, are you okay? I’m so sorry. I didn’t know he’d be back so soon."Mia didn't take his hand. She stepped out of the closet. She didn't look at Leo, she couldn't. The thought in her mind then was to leave as soon as possible. She needed to be in any other place but here, not in the same space with Leo. Not when Leo wasn't who he seemed he was or when h

  • The Rogue Luna's Secret    The Scent that Changed Everything

    Theo, Jenny, and Mia had spent the last hour helping Leo hoist the massive mural into place.Jenny had eventually dragged Mia away to find some cold sodas, leaving Theo and Leo alone in the cramped space behind the display tarp. Theo stopped hammering a support nail and looked at Leo. The older boy was carefully adjusting the lighting, his movements precise and quiet.Theo was adjusting the support beam, but his eyes never left Leo. Leo noticed Theo staring but he kept his focus on the lighting which he was adjusting. Totally ignoring Theo's stares.Theo couldn't let it in anymore, "You know," Theo said, his voice dropping into a low pitch so only Leo could hear him. "I can’t quite put my finger on it, but I have a bad feeling about you. If there's one thing I've learnt in life, it's to always trust my gut when it tells me something is off and my gut keeps telling me not to trust you one bit, especially not with my sister.” Leo didn’t stop what he was doing. He didn't even look a bit
