Our Solemn Hour
Everything was a shadowy haze as voices bickered and grew around me. Was this what heaven was like? Or maybe I was with the Moon Goddess now? I couldn’t tell where I was or who was talking. It was so vague, like a quiet echo that had travelled miles to reach me. I was at peace and at first, I couldn’t recall what I had been doing before.
Slowly, my eyes flickered open to the sound of an elderly woman’s voice. “Waking up at last, are you? Good.”
Slowly, I looked around. Everything was blurry. I could barely make anything out of the one eye, while something shrouded my other eye in blackness. Slowly, I found the owner of the voice. A light grey-haired woman with a face full of wrinkles. Her eyes held a familiar sight of blueish green.
“I’m telling you, we should kill it now, not bring it back to health,” a younger woman’s voice huffed out loud. I couldn’t see her, but she must have been somewhere behind a curtain that surrounded the bed I

Under the Blue Moon Worth It
A few days had gone by with me recovering in this room. I wasn’t quite in a hospital, but it had all the required equipment I would need if anything became a problem. Rem visited me often, making sure I was healing up and that none of his family had hassled me, though his aunt - the older woman, seemed very strict in who she allowed in the room with me. In my time recuperating here, I learned that although Rem had saved me from the alpha, he, his luna and most of his pack had escaped. The few who hadn’t escaped had stubbornly fought to the death. That hadn’t shocked me, but I was rather bitter about the situation. I couldn’t side with just one point of view. No matter how I looked at things, the Hunters had put them through so much pain and suffering. As soon as I could walk around again, Rem had permission to take me out and about, so long as he kept me under his supervision and that I did not wander and snoop on Hunter
Under the Blue Moon Lost Without You
After enjoying our snacks and drinks, Rem and I settled down on his bed to watch some TV. To my surprise, Rem enjoyed the odd anime here and there, so we settled down to watch some old classics. No one disturbed us, likely for fear of irritating Rem. Even among his own family, he was rather short with them and would confront them if they made him irritable. By now, I had become accustomed to his nature of being cold, yet caring deeply about people.“So do you think your heat is finally over?” The question seemed to come out of nowhere, throwing me off guard.I could feel my cheeks grow warm, but I played it off smoothly. “I think so, but we haven’t been able to satisfy it since we last spent time alone, so who knows?” Glancing at Rem from the corner of my good eye, I could see him flush deeply.“Well, I don’t feel strange, or didn’t…” Rem tried to say, though he was floundering a
Under the Blue Moon Everything I Wanted
What started with little nips and kisses to Rem’s neck soon turned into a full-on makeout session. I leaned forward slightly, pressing my chest up against his. I knew he was trying to be mindful of the wounds on my face still, but he was slowly growing needier by the moment. My actions were certainly not helping his case, either.As I trailed my lips down to Rem’s chest, he let out a breathless moan, which he broke with a bite to his lower lip. He was struggling to keep his body in check with what he was telling himself. It was cute how hard he was trying to hold back, for my sake.After a moment, my teasing had become too much for Rem to handle. With a gentle push on my shoulders, Rem mumbled out a soft, “if you keep this up, I won’t be able to hold back anymore.”I glanced up at Rem,
Under the Blue Moon Elder Roz
The next morning, Rem had permission to take me to see the werewolves that they had taken into another building behind the mansion. They used it for the extended family if the main estate had no room left open, but it was still large enough for quite a large group of people.Two guards stood outside of the building. At first, I thought they were Hunters from a distance, but as we got closer, I could tell that they were actually werewolves, though they seemed to lack any scent that gave them away. The younger ones I had met had enough of a scent that I could tell what they were with easiness.The guards seemed wary of Rem but allowed us passage with no fuss. They appeared to have been expecting someone to come around today.The werewolf on the right said, “one of the younger ones will be with you shortly. The elder has been waiting for your visit.”Rem nodded and entered the entrance and motioned me
Under the Blue Moon Legend of the Moon Goddess
With the information of Rem being my mate, Elder Roz invited us both to sit down near her. “There are many tales of different werewolves throughout history that have been born special compared to the rest of us,” she explained as she was trying to recall the old legends that were passed down through the generations of her pack. I nodded slowly as I listened intently to the older woman. “When I was young, Hunters killed my pack. My mother was human and could escape with me, but because of that, I don’t really know a lot,” I explained quietly. “All I know is that as a half-blood, I sometimes only half transform, so my wolf ears and tail poke out, but I can fully transform as well. Oh, and that the Moon Goddess gives us each a soul mate upon birth,” I added. Elder Roz nodded her head slowly. “Jake, get us all a nice cuppa tea,” she asked with a warm smile. “Or coffee if the Hunter prefers coffee,” she added. “Tea is fine,” Rem said with ca
Under the Blue Moon Children of the Silver Moon
After Elder Roz explained her tale, Rem’s phone rang. His family needed him for an important meeting. I could remain here with the other werewolves, hoping I might learn something else from them. I saw Rem off, then returned to Elder Roz, who was now napping. Jake had put a blanket over her lap to keep her warm.With a glance at me, Jake looked up and asked, “you’re really mated with the Hunter?”I nodded my head slowly and showed him the mark on my neck that Rem had left. “It was really strange when I first found out, but he’s actually very kind,” I said with a soft smile.Jake rolled his eyes. “The old Hag said I’d understand that crap later, but I have no interest in all that mushy stuff,” he said with a wrinkle of his nose. “Still, I guess if he accepted you, then maybe the Moon Goddess wants to remind humans we’re supposed to be getting along? I mean, humans someh
Under the Blue Moon Tale of Woe
Visiting the other surviving members of the other packs, I learned a little more about the ritual from their elders as well, though they could tell me little more than what Elder Roz had already told me. I could feel their sorrows over the loss of their alpha and luna just as much as I had felt Roz’s loss. This other pack had been sure to not harm the elders or the younger pack members, likely because they posed no threat to his power or position as an alpha.Still, despite this, I couldn’t forgive him for even doing this much. Was it because they had refused his ideals? Was he worried they would side with the Hunter’s and track him down for them? Did that leave these packs open to attack now, to ensure this didn’t come to pass, even though they were no actual threat to him and his pack?There were so many questions and I had no answers for any of them. For now, all I could do was try to learn as much as I could and hope t
Under the Blue Moon Talking to the Moon
As the evening drifted into night, Rem allowed me to remain with the packs while he spoke with his family. He hadn’t given away what he was planning in his thoughts or his heart, but I knew Rem was up to something and it was my fault. Truthfully, I could easily venture a guess at what he was actually planning, but I stayed quiet. If Rem did this on my behalf, then I would not talk him out of it. Though I wondered why he might.Was it the bond between us that made him want to do this? I had my doubts, but that only left me with one other reason. Rem had feelings for me.I felt delighted. Would Rem really ask his family to let these packs return to who they really were on the inside? Would they finally be themselves again?I could only hope they’d agree to it.I tried to speak with Rem through our connection, but he told me he was going to lock me out for a while and since then, I couldn’t feel or hear him at all.
