When I was getting close to the border the pull in my chest increased more. It started small at first a soft tug under the ribs but as I moved it grew until it was almost a weight. I felt it like pressure, like someone pressed a palm against my heart and would not let go. I had to fight that pressure. I am the alpha. I must not be seen as weak. Not in front of the pack members, not in front of the guard. I kept my face calm though the inside of me knocked like a drum.

I wanted, for a second, to have signed the rest of this morning’s orders to my beta. If he had them, I could have turned away and let him handle the paper mountain. A part of me even wished I had. It would have been easier. It would have let me focus only on the run, breathe deep, and use the motion to smooth the ache. But I was already here. I had chosen to run. That choice had led me to this moment. I could not take it back.

The forest kept its voice low around us, trees bent close, leaves whispering. The path had the

  • The luna’s misery   Chapter 70

    “Why do you keep doing this?” I asked, my voice coming out softer than I intended, almost breathless.Jack was standing too close. Too close for my heart. Too close for my sanity.His body was right in front of mine, tall, broad, blocking my escape without even trying. The space between us was gone, completely erased. I could feel his heat, his scent, his presence pressing into me like a silent warning. My back brushed against the desk behind me, and I swallowed hard, trying to steady myself.Why does he do this?One moment he looks at me like I’m nothing. Like I don’t exist. Like I’m just another body walking around his pack. And the next moment, he traps me like this, touches me like this, looks at me like I belong to him.Does he think I’m weak?Does he think I’ll always be here no matter how he treats me?Those cold gazes of his haunt me. They creep into my chest at night when I’m alone, making me wonder what I did wrong. Making me question myself. Making me ask the Moon Goddess w

  • The luna’s misery   Chapter 69

    “Come in,” Raven’s voice echoed softly from inside the room, calm but carrying that authority that made me obey immediately. I hesitated at the threshold for a moment, letting my nerves settle. I had no idea what I was walking into, but I knew I had to face it. Whatever it was, I couldn’t run from it anymore.“You finally come around, Luna.” Raven’s lips curved into a small, knowing smile. But the way she said it… it wasn’t warm, it wasn’t comforting. It carried weight, like she already knew exactly why I was here.Luna. That name felt strange on my tongue. Luna, when Jack, my mate, hadn’t even claimed me yet. Why was she calling me that now? I pushed the thought aside, reminding myself that this was not why I had come.I walked in slowly, my hands trembling slightly as I followed her gesture toward a chair. She motioned for me to sit, and I obeyed, my legs heavy, my body tired from everything, the dreams, Sophie, the border, the confusion.“I had a very terrible dream about someone t

  • The luna’s misery   Chapter 68

    I shut the door behind me and let out a long, shaky breath. A normal, modern door… but somehow even that small noise felt loud in my head.Everything around me feels twisted.Distorted.Unfair.My own world… why is it different? Why does it feel like everything wakes up each morning just to fight me?Why are they tormenting me?I grabbed my water bottle like someone who had been walking through a desert for years and gulped it down so fast it almost choked me.Sophie’s words kept ringing in my head.“My mother…”Who is her mother? Why is everyone talking in riddles? First Raven… now Sophie… witches and their cryptic mouths.Too many questions.No single answer.I sat at the edge of my bed, staring at the ticking clock. It was already 12 p.m., and I hadn’t eaten anything today. My body felt empty, but my mind was heavier than a mountain.I dragged myself into the bathroom.The mirror punished me immediately.I saw the lowest version of myself.Eyes swollen.Skin tired.Soul exhausted.

  • The luna’s misery   Chapter 67

    Nora POVThe past few days have been draining, confusing, and honestly… terrifying.I have been having the same type of dream over and over again.Not the normal kind of dream where you wake up and forget it after some minutes.No.These ones were heavy, dark, and too real to ignore.Every night, Sophie appeared.Every night, she said something new.Every night, I woke up sweating, shaking, and gasping for air like someone was choking me inside the dream.And the crazy part?The dreams felt more real than the real world.After what happened in Jack’s room, the black smoke, the way I passed out, the way Raven talked in confusion and mystery—I knew something was wrong. But instead of going to see Raven like Jack told me, I kept pushing it aside. I kept telling myself it would fade. I kept pretending nothing was happening.But the truth is…I was scared of what I would hear.And because of that fear, my nights became so bad that I started sneaking into Jack’s room just to sleep.I don’t

    Nora’s POVThe sun was already blazing when I reached the training ground. The air smelled like grass, dust, sweat, and something warm from the morning breeze. Lara stood beside me, laughing at something Leo said, while I stretched my legs slowly, trying to wake my body up.I was still tired from yesterday, my head felt light, my body weak in some parts, but I didn’t want to complain. I didn’t want anyone to think I wasn’t okay. Especially not Jack.“Move your hands higher,” Lara teased, pushing my elbow lightly. “You look like an old woman trying to do yoga.”“Shut up,” I rolled my eyes, stretching harder.Leo laughed. “Both of you talk too much. If Jack comes here and sees this your gossip face, he’ll send you to run around the mountain.”Before I could respond, Leo’s face changed. His eyes shifted toward the entrance of the field.I didn’t need to ask why. I already knew that presence.That quiet tension. That command in the air like the wind obeyed him.Jack.He walked into the tr

    JackMorning came faster than I wanted.The light slipped into the room in a soft gold line across the floor, touching the edge of the bed. I didn’t even move at first. I just lay there and breathed in the scent beside me, warm, soft, sweet… my mate.Nora.She was curled up, her hair scattered on the pillow, her lips slightly parted. She slept like someone who had fought the whole world and finally found a place to rest. And somehow… I felt both proud and guilty as I looked at her.I sat up slowly, pushing the sheets aside, but my eyes never left her.She was so beautiful.Too beautiful.Sometimes it scared me how much I wanted to protect her, hold her, kiss her, keep her close, and at the same time… how much distance I forced between us. It didn’t feel fair. It didn’t feel right. But I kept doing it because I was trying to protect her from things she didn’t understand yet.But the truth?Every time I pulled away from her… a part of me tore inside.Alvin, my wolf, hated it more than m
