All Chapters of BLOODLINE OF THE MOON : Chapter 141 - Chapter 150

JAKE'S POVSaying I'm not scared for Lyra would be me lying. I sat down, observing every bit of her expression. The manner in which she fiddled her fingers nervously, tapping her feet continuously absent-mindedly while focusing on Damon's conversation with Aemond. What should I do? I thought in my head. We are short of men. All we had was amateurs in training. Calling in another pack or perhaps my friends in the force would be me exposing Lyra to potential threats. No one can be trusted in matters like this. The pendant, the crystal, and every other thing attached can be likened to a nuclear weapon. I heaved a deep sigh listening to Damon’s conversation with Aemond.“The dockyard! 7pm! Do not try to play smart!” Aemond warned.The dockyard? No one could ever imagine that was where they could be. Such a prick! I waited till the call was over. “The dockyard? That is the most deadly place to be at such a time of the day!” I lamented. “Zero security, the nearest police station is about

LEO’S POVFIVE DAYS EARLIER….The darkness had become my friend. Everywhere oozed of dried sweat, rusty iron, and excreta I had made for about a week. I was barely given food or water. With almost no fat left in my body, my skin shrank causing my ribs to extend like the sharp bones of a skeleton, my throat parched, and my lips chapped. The shackles on my wrists had bitten into my flesh, resulting in inflamed marks. I had lost track of how long I had been in here. The first few days and weeks, I kept track of time like the ancient slaves, marking tally on the wall. At least Aemond was generous enough to carve out a rabbit hole high up for little sunshine. Aside from telling when it was dark and day, the rays were too weak to light up the cell.I lay down, curled up like a heap on the cold stone floor, the unforgiving cold biting into my spine. The ache in my bones never ceased. My wolf, once mighty and untamable, whimpered within me, too weak to react. How could it when I can barely l

LYRA'S POVI glanced at Zephyr, gawking, my eyes twitching in shock. Ignoring my stare, he frantically reached for each strap I was tied with, unbuckling each end. Aemond and my brother, Leo were taking out their anger on each other. “What are you doing?” I asked in a hushed tone.“I need to get you out of this,” he responded, unstrapping the buckle on my other leg. Reaching for my hand, he paused for a second, staring into my eyes. “I know better now! Aemond must not take control of the crystal. We need to stop him,” he whispered.I rubbed my wrist, groaning slightly in pain after he took off the last strap. “Why are you trying to help me now, after what you put me through?” My brows furrowed as I poked his chest, speaking through gritted teeth, conscious not to draw Aemond's and Leo's attention.“I don't have time to say anything right now! We need to get the pendant off Leo and get you connected to the core.I didn't flinch, I stared at him, long enough to get him to understand so

JAKE'S POVEvery strand of hair on my skin stood, the moment I heard Lyra smash her earplug. I couldn't bear sitting in the dark, knowing things might go south inside the dockyard. I spotted Lisa being escorted out of the warehouse with Jayden cradled in her arms. Directing two men in her direction for pickup and evacuation, the others were left to tag along with me.“We move now!” I ordered, my voice slicing through the thickness of the night.I wasn't expecting a noiseless entry. The hooting and wild chittering from the men of Tazarwa stirred attention. We took heavy gunfire. Not for long. The grenade bought us a few seconds, aiding our break and penetration into the warehouse.With my senses spiking off the roof, I ran through the entrance, sending splinters of wood all around like a wrecking ball with the other men filing in behind me.My heart dropped into my belly at the sight of Lyra floating halfway up the room. Her arms were draped beside her, her head lolled backward, and he

LYRA'S POV“Thank goodness! She's stable now! I heard the first voice exclaim.“Lyra! Lyra!” I heard a muffled call; not certain it was from the first voice. My ears still rang from the high-pitched force that propelled me back to reality.Chaos, grunts, groaning, and shots I perceived might be from a gun all echoed in my head but I could barely move a muscle. Worn out from the expended energy back in the realm, my body screamed for a moment of relaxation. Sadly, I just stepped into the second phase of the night.I squinted, slowly peeling my eyes open but everything still blurred before me until it all came into focus.“Jake?” I rasped, a small smile plastered on my face. “You came for me,” I breathed my words in a slow, low tone.“Shush!” He hushed me. “You don't have to say anything. I'm here now!” He cooed, supporting my head, brushing off my hair from my face. I also caught a glimpse of Leo. Shocked yet too weak to express it. How on earth are two arch enemies aligning together?
