  • True Luna's Revenge   Chapter 14: Threads of Blood

    Faint light touched the open space, coloring it pale yellow when I stayed close to Lucas, his palm resting low on my back. Around us, the group worked, some tying Ethan’s arms with a thread-woven cord, others cleaning cuts. A dull ache pulsed in my shoulder, yet it didn’t claim attention anymore, pushed aside by the choice settling inside me.Out past the tree line, Jax vanished, him and those quiet shadows called Velvet Claw slipping away. Yet what he said last didn’t fade; it floated there, thin as breath on glass. Deeper down something answered. Not warmth, not comfort, just blood humming beneath the skin, older than any promise. When Lucas turns toward me now, steady and close, even that bright pull between us can’t quite drown out the chill underneath.Rachel approached first, her wild curls tied back, eyes wary but hopeful. “Scarlett… I meant what I said. I’ll earn my place. No more lies.”Stillness settled as I watched her, really saw her again. This person who lit the fire und

  • True Luna's Revenge   Chapter 13: Blood and Bond

    Ember glow pulsed in the dark, the fire now just a whisper of what it once was. Leaning on a dead tree trunk, I stayed close to Lucas, his arm resting like a quiet promise over me. Heat moved through layers, fighting off cold air that crept between us. Thoughts spun without pause, tangled and sharp. Inside my head, Jax kept speaking each word heavier than the flame sound Pick one. Blood you were born with or the bonds you made? Vengeance first, or care?Stepping slowly, I got to my feet. Silence hung while they looked on. Head low, Rachel avoided gaze. Alex stiffened. Emily stayed still, yet watching closely. Up came Lucas, yet he kept his distance. Blue eyes met mine, full of wait, though I’d given little reason for it.“I have to figure things out,” I said, so quiet it almost vanished. By myselfLucas nodded once. “Take all the time you need. But stay close to the clearing. Ethan’s still out there.”Into the trees I went, surrounded by the smell of pine, thick and comforting. Beneat

    A sharp ache pulsed through her shoulder. Her fingers moved there without thinking. Not him now? The words came out slowly, aimed at Jax. Time had passed, too much of itArms folded tight across his chest, Jax stood firm. Built sturdy, much like Lucas, though more wiry in frame. Hidden away, he had been sheltered by the Velvet Claw later that night, the one where your father, our father, fell. Truth came slowly, then all at once. It turns out the former alpha saw their kind as a threat; blood such as theirs feeds power into the Luna, overshadowing any man who leads. That’s when he divided us. Home is where you should be. I’m here to bring you backLucas growled softly. “She belongs with me. With us. The bond doesn’t lie.”Between the two of them, Scarlett watched. Love mixed with fear swam in Lucas's blue eyes. Over his forehead drifted strands of light brown hair, untamed. From past battles, streaks of soil marked his darkened face. Tired, he seemed still braced once more to stand fo

    The choice.Scarlett thought for a moment. “Stay. But earn your place again. No more lies.”Alex gave a small nod. “Same for me. I can help with information. The Shadow Pack is weak now. Their alpha ran off.”Resting tonight was their choice. Come morning light, they’d head straight for the main pack house instead. First thing, Emily stepped forward, and she'd speak with the elders on her own. Acceptance of Scarlett as Luna had to happen before facing Ethan could even begin.When daylight began to fade, flames flickered to life between the fighters. Rations came out of concealed bags, passed hand to hand. She chewed each bite without hurry. Strength hadn’t returned fully, yet being near Lucas softened the weight. The quiet warmth helped.A crumb fell as he passed her the torn bread. Back then, they’d do the same barefoot in the kitchen. His grin softened. That old habit did she still think about?Scarlett took it. Their fingers touched. “Yeah. You always gave me the bigger piece.”Dar

    Above all.Into the trees they went, Scarlett gripping Lucas’s fingers like a lifeline. Hurt pulsed under her collarbone, yet his nearness softened each step. Light broke through the pine crowns above, spilling gold across her skin.“We’re almost at the old meeting grounds,” Lucas said quietly. His voice sounded steady, but she felt the worry in his grip. “That’s where the main pack will gather. We have to explain everything before they attack us.”Emily walked on Scarlett’s other side. She kept checking behind them. “The howls are getting closer. They think we betrayed the pack by working with the Shadow Pack.”Back she stepped, just a little. Tangled curls framed Rachel’s face, wild after the wind. Silence sat heavy between them as they moved through the trees. Alex kept pace, jacket ripped at the shoulder, fabric hanging loose. Words about what happened inside never came. The air held onto things left unsaid.Eyes meeting Lucas, Scarlett saw his hair tousled, wild from the clash mo

    Bonds and Betrayal.Into the woods they walked, Scarlett pressing closer to Lucas now. Each footfall sent a spike up her arm and her shoulder on fire. The wrap Emily wound so tightly kept leaking red, slow but steady.Soon we have to stop, Lucas murmured. Around her waist his arm held tight. Too much blood is leaving your body, he added.“I’m okay,” Scarlett said quietly. Still, it came out shaky, like a twig snapping underfoot. Trees swayed where they stood, their shapes smudging into gray.Emily walked ahead, scanning every shadow. “There’s an old hunter’s cabin not far. We can hide there until you heal.”Fingers slack around her wrist, Alex trailed slightly behind. Silence hung over the curlyhaired girl, thick and sudden. Gone were the biting jokes. Only a colorless face, gaze fixed low.Scarlett glanced back once. “Why, Rachel? I thought we were family.”Rachel lifted her head slowly. “You were always the strong one. The one with the bloodline. I got tired of living in your shadow

    Luna's AwakeningHer words trembled, barely beyond a whisper. What did he mean? The sound cracked like old wood.Water clung to her hair as Lucas swept it aside. Softness lived in his fingers, slow like mist. As if one wrong move could shatter her.“Five years ago, I didn’t betray you,” he said aga

    Blood and TruthOut of nowhere, Lucas yelled at Scarlett to check her left side. The surrounding noise made everything hard to hear.Mist hung low when wolves slammed into one another. Jaws cracked open misandry. Fur ripped as claws found purchase. Just then, Scarlett turned eyes, catching the blur
