Semua Bab Moonlit Bonds: Return of the Lycan : Bab 1 - Bab 10

When Emma finally reached the end of the long, winding driveway that led to her family's ancestral home, she did so with a heavy heart. Looking up at the dilapidated mansion that now stood before her, she couldn't help but feel apprehensive. It was the same house where she had spent her childhood, but now it seemed unfamiliar. Like she herself, it had become old and abandoned with the passage of time.As she stepped out of the car, Emma's eyes roamed over the old mansion, taking in every detail. The roof was tattered, and the windows were boarded up. Ivy climbed up the walls, twisting and curling around the bricks as if trying to claim the building for itself. The front lawn was overgrown with weeds and wildflowers, and the trees that once stood tall and proud now drooped, as if defeated. She couldn’t believe it took the death of her parents for her to return here.With a deep sigh, Emma walked up to the front door and pushed it open. The sound of the old hinges creaking echoed throug

Lucas, a tall and muscular man in his early thirties, walked through the woods towards the pack house with a sense of purpose. As the Alpha of his small wolf pack, it was his responsibility to ensure that its members were safe and protected. As he approached the packhouse, he could hear the sounds of his pack members chatting and laughing inside.Max, Samantha, and Simon were sitting around a table, deep in conversation. Max, the beta wolf of the pack, was listening intently while Samantha, with her blue eyes blazing, spoke passionately about something. Simon, a small-sized teenager with long hair, sat back in his chair, looking bored. He was the youngest in the pack and was an Omega just like Samantha.There had been nothing of interest going on in their lives until lately. No, they weren’t fighting off rogues because no werewolf was foolish enough to trespass in Alpha Lucas’s territory, let alone seek a fight. However, the pack had sensed something off in the town in the past few da

Lucas steps closer to her, his hand still outstretched. "I am Lucas," he says in a low voice. "And you are?"Emma hesitates, unsure of what to do. She looks at his hand, then back up at his face. His eyes are intense, almost predatory, but there's a hint of something else there too—something she can't quite put her finger on."I'm Emma," she finally manages to whisper, taking his hand tentatively.Lucas gives her a small smile, but it doesn't quite reach his eyes. "I assure you, Emma, I mean you no harm. If I wanted to hurt you, I would have done so already."His words send a shiver down her spine, but she can't deny the truth in them. He had the opportunity to attack her earlier, but he didn't. Maybe he really isn't a threat.Emma takes a deep breath, trying to calm her nerves. She looks up at Lucas, taking in his rugged features and piercing gaze."What was that thing that attacked me?" she asks, her voice trembling. "And what are you?"Lucas looks at her with surprise. "You’ve neve

Emma woke up early in the morning, stretching her arms and yawning as she sat up on the bed. She looked around the room and out through the open door, she noticed that Lucas was nowhere to be found. Panic crept up on her, and she called out his name, but there was no answer.She got up from the bed immediately, walked out to the front of the cabin, but Lucas wasn't there. Emma's heart was pounding fast in her chest as she started to worry that something might have happened to him or he had left her alone in the middle of the woods while she was sleeping. She decided to search the back of the cabin, hoping to find him there.As she walked towards the back of the cabin, she noticed a few trees standing in the path. She approached them, and when she looked beyond them, she noticed a river. The view was breathtaking, the river was flowing calmly, and the birds were chirping.Emma suddenly sees Lucas taking a bath in the river, she moves gently beside a tree, watching him from the corner.

As Lucas walked out of the Argent mansion, he could feel Samantha's icy stare piercing through him. He ignored her and made his way to the truck, where Max was waiting for him."Did you call the mechanic?" Lucas asked as he opened the door."Yeah, I sent him the address," Max replied.Lucas nodded in satisfaction. "Good. We need to find the Lycan who attacked Emma last night. I have an idea who it might be.""Why bother with that?" Samantha said with a dismissive wave of her hand. "The Lycan didn't succeed, so let it go."Simon, who was sitting in the back of the truck, scoffed. "Speak for yourself. I haven't picked a fight in days. I need to get my ass handed to me, and fighting a Lycan sounds like a good way to do it."Samantha rolled her eyes. "You're such an idiot, Simon. What's the big deal about this Emma girl anyway? And why are you so concerned about her?" she asked and crossed her arms over her chestLucas turned to Samantha. "I don’t know how many times I have to explain thi
