SERAPHINA

“Phina… Phina…” I gasped, standing beneath the icy spray of the shower. My body trembled as I moaned through clenched teeth, pain raking through me. I knew it had only been half an hour—far too early for this to pass—but the heat flooding my blood and my wolf’s growing need were driving us both to the brink.

Phina whimpered weakly in my mind. She was fighting just as hard as I was, holding herself back from the primal urge threatening to consume us.

My knees buckled.

I collapsed to the cold tile floor, panting. “Just a little longer…” I murmured. “It’ll be over soon…”

Truthfully, I didn’t know if this trick would work. But I couldn’t give up, not now. It had to work.

The pain was unlike anything I’d ever known. My vision blurred, my mind clouded with fog. It felt as if something was tearing my soul from my body.

Desperate to stay conscious, I dug my nails into my arm, pinching and scratching at my skin. “Don’t faint…” I whispered to myself, though my voice was already fading

  • When The Moon Hides Her Crown   80. I DON’T BOW-I BREAK

    SERAPHINAI had never endured disrespect in my entire life—not even when I was a child—but at the Academy, I tolerated everything. I swallowed every provocation and endured every shove just to maintain my disguise. Staying quiet, staying small and not attracting much attention…it was how I thought I could survive.But today, something inside me snapped.All this time, I told myself that if I just ignored the provocations, things would eventually settle down. That if I kept my head down, I wouldn’t be targeted. After hearing him say—those vile things, loud enough to stir whispers from every corner— that was the last straw.My wolf roared.Before Reed could even finish his disgusting sentence, my hand shot out and caught his wrist in a blur.CrackThe sickening snap echoed like a gunshot across the cafeteria. His arrogant laugh died in his throat, replaced by a blood-curdling scream that pierced the air like a blade.“HE BROKE REED’S WRIST!!” someone yelled in shock.Cassius’ mouth fell

  • When The Moon Hides Her Crown   79. SNAP

    SERAPHINAThe Next Day:The late morning sun filtered through the high academy windows, gilding the halls with light. My arms ache slightly under the weight of the box I held against my chest, but I didn’t care.I was free.After so many days that actually felt like forever, I wasn’t under suspicion, wasn’t locked away in that prison-like suffocating room. Though it had an attached bathroom and even a window, it felt more like a gilded cage than any sort of living space.But now…now I was allowed back into my room.My dorm room.I pushed the door open with my shoulder and stepped inside, the familiar scent of clean linen and pine-scented soap instantly grounding me. My bed was exactly the way I’d left it—neatly made, the dark comforter folded at the foot.I inhaled deeply and smiled faintly. Home. Or at least, the closest thing to it.Setting the box down on the bed, I moved around the room, returning everything to its place—my comb, the cracked mug I kept for tea, my worn training pa

  • When The Moon Hides Her Crown   78. THE SECOND HUNTER

    RONAN“Give me a kiss,” my breath fanned her lips, our breathing mingling together.The way she blinked once, twice before her cheeks turned as red as a tomato played with my wolf. She had clearly not been kissed by a man. She held her breath as the heat of my chest pressed into her, an arm looped around her neck pulling her flush against my body.“Y-you’re insane,” she blurted, cheeks igniting, “you’ve lost your damn mind.”“Is this how you act after…” I murmured, my voice a low purr, “taking advantage of me in the cave?” Her eyes instantly widened like an owl and heartbeat increased, “W-who took advantage of you?! It is you who took advantage of me when I…” she paused, never able to say that we slept together. I raised my brows, “What? Tell me how I took advantage of you?” She clenched her teeth and shoved lightly at my chest, pushing herself out of my hold. “Next time you play with me, I will slap you!” she spun away, quickly walking away to hide her red face.I watched, amu

  • When The Moon Hides Her Crown   77. SHADOWS AND SUNRISE

    SERAPHINARonan said he took care of the hunter then who was this?Phina growled in my mind, “It seems there were two hunters in this trial!” I clenched my fists. This was a disaster. Twists were expected in a trial but the timing could not be worse. It was already dawn! And the hunter was living up to his name. Ronan and the hunter were a blur of claws and fury.I could barely keep up, my eyes straining to follow the deadly choreography unfolding in front of me. Every time I thought I caught the edge of a movement, another strike came from a different angle, faster, sharper, impossibly precise. The sounds were sickening: the clash of bone against bone, the hiss of air whistling around claws that could tear through skin and soul alike, and the low, guttural growls that rumbled from deep within both their chests.Ronan moved like a storm, his body a weapon forged by rage and purpose. The hunter, however, was no less terrifying. He was lithe and silent, crouched low with a bone-white

  • When The Moon Hides Her Crown   76. THE WARMTH BEFORE THE STORM

    SERAPHINA Warmth.That was the first thing I felt, pure, comforting warmth wrapping around me like a protective cocoon. For a moment, I didn’t move. My breathing was slow, unhurried. My body, usually stiff from tension and exhaustion, felt…rested.Too rested. Too relaxed. My eyes blinked open to the soft amber of early dawn painting the cave walls. My heart skipped.Dawn?!My eyes flew open.How had I fallen asleep?The last thing I remembered was talking to Ronan, chewing on guava, asking questions then…being pulled into sleep. How was that possible? That guava was there something in it…I brushed it aside and hurried, I tried to sit up but froze mid-motion.My eyes subconsciously went to the figure sleeping beside me that I had somehow failed to see in panic. My breath hitched. Ronan?He was sleeping beside me.Close. Too close.Our faces were turned toward one another, barely an inch apart. I could feel the warmth of his breath on my cheek, soft and steady. His dark lashes reste

  • When The Moon Hides Her Crown   75. THE NOTE THAT SHOULDN’T EXIST

    ASHERThe soft glow of dawn spilled through the tall, arched windows of the Grand Library, stretching golden fingers across the polished marble floor. The silence was thick and reverent, broken only by the occasional crackle of candle wax or the distant shift of ancient tomes settling on their worn shelves.I stood in front of the west wing’s forgotten aisle, where books older than the Academy itself lined the wooden shelves, some barely holding together despite years of careful preservation. The brittle pages of the volume in my hand had my attention, its spine cracked with time and its ink faded slightly. Another page turned under my fingers, slow, deliberate, searching.Then a voice cut through the silence."You refused to attend the overnight survival trial even though your name was cleared," Alpha Instructor Jude said evenly, stepping into view, his silhouette tall and sharp against the rising light. "Now, you've spent the entire night in the library, breaking curfew and the rul
