Day one

*CHAPTER 20: DAY ONE*

We stayed in the library for the night.

The white crystals kept the room warm, but I was still cold. The black flower on my chest was one petal open, whispering. Not loud enough to hear words anymore, just a feeling — _hungry, lonely, cold._

Kade didn't sleep. He sat behind me, his chest to my back, his big arms around me and Leo, who was curled between us on the library floor on top of Kade's cloak.

Tara sat far away by the stairs, hugging her knees, not sleeping eith

  • The alpha who rejected me is now obsessed   day four-- the cure that could kill us

    *CHAPTER 24: DAY FOUR — THE CURE THAT COULD KILL US*Day Four started with Lila laughing.It was a small sound. Sleepy. But it filled the whole library.She was sitting up on her blanket, her fever gone, eating bread with honey while Leo tried to teach her how to say his name."Leo!" he said, pointing at his chest."Neo!" Lila giggled."Close enough," Leo said, very serious, like a teacher.Sara was watching them with eyes that looked ten years younger. She kept touching Lila's forehead every few minutes, just to be sure she was still cool.Tara was already awake too. She was sitting by the window, but she wasn't watching for rogues today. She was grinding herbs, humming the healing song under her breath. She looked... different. Taller. Like something heavy had finally lifted off her shoulders.Kade came in with Dren, both of them covered in dust from the north wall."Wall is holding," Kade said, dropping his sword by the door. He came straight to me and kissed my forehead. "How is e

  • The alpha who rejected me is now obsessed   Day three- the little girl withe the fever

    *CHAPTER 23: DAY THREE — THE LITTLE GIRL WITH THE FEVER*Day Three started quiet.Too quiet.I woke up to Leo breathing on my neck and Tara already awake, sitting by the window, watching the herb garden like she expected rogues to come back through the dirt.Kade was gone. He'd left a note on the table in his messy handwriting:_Gone to check north wall with Dren. Stay in library. I love you. — K_Magnus was snoring again, this time on the floor, the book open on his chest like a blanket.For one hour, it felt almost normal. Tara made tea. Leo ate bread and tried to feed me the crusts like I was a baby bird. I almost laughed. I almost forgot about the flower.Then Sara knocked.Not a soft knock. A frantic knock. Bang, bang, bang.Tara opened the door and Sara fell inside, holding her little girl — Lila — in her arms.Lila was burning.Her face was red, her little body was shaking, her eyes were half-closed. She was making a small, whimpering sound, like a hurt puppy."Please," Sara ga

  • The alpha who rejected me is now obsessed   The rouge at the gate

    Morning came grey and cold. I didn't sleep. I sat in the library with Leo in my lap, listening to the pack house breathe above us. Every creak sounded like footsteps. Every whisper sounded like _exile her._ Kade didn't sleep either. He sat by the door with his sword across his knees, watching me like if he blinked, the flower would open. Magnus was asleep on the table, face down on the book, drooling on a page about Hollow seeds. Tara was in the corner, sharpening herbs, her eyes red. She hadn't slept since Jonah died. "Stop looking at me like that," I whispered to Kade. "Like what?" "Like I'm going to break." "You did break yesterday," he said softly. "A little. I saw it." I looked down at Leo. He was awake, playing with the hem of my shirt, not pulling it up, just touching it like he was checking the flower was still asleep. "Mama, is the bad flower hungry?" he asked. "Yes, baby. But Mama is stronger." It was a lie. I didn't feel stronger. I felt hollowed out, like Jonah

  • The alpha who rejected me is now obsessed   the price of not healing

    *CHAPTER 21: THE PRICE OF NOT HEALINGWe didn't hear Jonah die.We heard Tara scream.It wasn't a loud scream. It was the kind of scream that comes out when you have already been screaming inside for a long time and your throat finally gives up. It came down the library stairs like cold water, and it hit all of us at once.Leo jerked awake in my lap. Kade was on his feet before I even understood what the sound was. Magnus had the book clutched to his chest like a shield."Stay here," Kade said to me. His voice was Alpha voice. Not husband voice. Not the soft voice he used when he whispered in my hair. This was the voice that made warriors stand straighter.But I was already standing. My legs were still weak from the flower eating my light, but I stood anyway. I am Luna. I don't hide in a library while my pack is grieving upstairs."Ani —" Kade started."Don't," I said. "Don't tell me to stay. If he died, I need to see it. I need to look his family in the eye."Kade looked at me for a

He sat behind me, his chest to my back, his big arms around me and Leo, who was curled between us on the library floor on top of Kade's cloak. Tara sat far away by the stairs, hugging her knees, not sleeping either. Magnus — my father — sat by the door, looking at me like he was scared I would disappear again. "Day one," he whispered when the crystals brightened. "Six more days. No white light." I nodded. My staff was propped against the wall, dim. Lyra, my white wolf, was sleeping deep inside me. I couldn't feel her at all. Then we heard shouting from above. "Alpha! Luna! Alpha Kade!" A Blood Moon warrior stumbled down the stairs, bleeding from his leg, his face white. "Alpha! Rogues attacked bo

  • The alpha who rejected me is now obsessed   mother's library

    *CHAPTER 19: MOTHER'S LIBRARY* The stairs ended in a small stone room. It wasn't dusty. It was... preserved. White light glowed from crystals in the ceiling, keeping everything fresh. Like time stopped here twenty years ago. My mother's smell was everywhere. Dried wolfsbane, old paper, and her white flower perfume. "Oh, Mama," I whispered. There were shelves of books, jars of herbs, and in the middle, a small wooden table with two chairs. One big, one small — a child's chair. She made it for me. Leo ran to it. "Mama, look! A little chair! Like my size!" He sat on it and the white light in the ceiling got brighter, like it recognized him. "White heir," Magnus whispered, his voice shaking. "The library recognizes the bloodline." Kade was still holding me, his hand over my chest where the black flower was. It had opened one petal and was warm. Too warm. "Find the book, Ani. Fast," he said quietly. "It's burning hotter." I started searching. My mother's journal said the library
