All Chapters of The Promised Luna: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

AYLAIt's been a few days since Ivy and I arrived at Dustspire Library. As much as I love going sightseeing and taking time for myself, I need to find out more about my powers.There is no telling when Slade will find out where I am and when he does he will take me away and make sure no one has access to me without him knowing.So I need to gather as much knowledge as I can but the Seer won't see me. She insists I take time to connect with myself or whatever that means. I'm done connecting. She needs to tell me how my powers work and about the prophecy. That's the reason I came here in the first place.I put on one of the clothes I was given. It is more like a uniform. Everyone here wears it and they seem to be happy about it including Ivy. I don't, the style is certainly not mine.I walked out the door, trying to find out the way towards the seer's office.“Excuse me, where can I find the Seer,” I asked someone, who just looked at me like I was a plague and walked away.“That was ru

SLADEIt's been weeks since Ayla ran away from Mercia and the palace. There have been round the clock patrols in the kingdom, trying to figure out where she would have run to.I even had spies check in with Moonlit and Stormbringer pack, maybe she was kidnapped but I highly doubt it. If she was, she wouldn't have left without a fight and there was no sign of that.This is practically my fault. Maybe I should have told her who she really is, what she really is to our world. Ever since she left I have been trying to suppress my feelings but I can't. I keep seeing her everywhere. Her smiles, her laughs. They are all in my head.I walk through the empty halls of the palace towards her chamber, but everything feels wrong. Too quiet. Too cold.She brought warmth into this place. Into me.Now it’s just stone and silence.I sit on the edge of her bed. My hands are clenched. My chest hurts in a way I can’t fix, not with strength, not with power.“I’m sorry,” I whisper to no one. “I should h

AYLAMy training with Serena has taken a whole different level, becoming more informative and aggressive at the same time. Not that I'm complaining. I'm enjoying this training, seeing the words with my powers is illuminating and the feeling is something I can't describe.But my training isn't all that I came here to find. Knowing the source of my power is another reason, and why I was chosen to have this power.There are a lot of powerful wolves and lycans that should have them but the moon goddess chose me, there has to be a reason and I need to find out.“What are you reading?” I heard Ivy's voice behind me and I flinched.“Jeez, Ivy. You scared me,” I said to her and she smirked.“One will think with all the training you are having with the seer you would have learnt how to watch your back,” she said with a smug.“I'm just learning what I can actually do with them. What these powers are, fighting or protecting myself with them are something else,” I said and she nodded her head.“

IVYThe moment the word left my mouth, she placed her hand flat on my chest.A warm surge shot through my body, like fire and ice dancing through my veins.I gasped. My back arched. The room blurred.She moved behind me, her hand never leaving my chest, whispering something in a language I didn’t know.My skin tingle, burned. My heart beat like a drum. My senses exploded.I could hear everything, the wings of moths against the window, the heartbeat of a guard three rooms away, the way her breathing hitched when I shuddered under her hand.Then, she leaned close again, her voice velvet and sharp.“You are special, Ivy. Very special,” she said, walking around me like a lioness circling prey.I watched her, heart racing, every sense on fire. Her voice… it wrapped around me like silk, warm and smooth, and far too easy to sink into.“I see it in your eyes,” she said softly, coming to a stop behind me. “You’re aching. Lonely. Always wondering why I stopped looking at you the way I used to.”

AYLA“Are you okay?” Ivy asked again and I sighed.“Yeah, I'm fine,” I said, adjusting away from her, remembering the words of my mother.“You kept repeating the word, “don't go,” in your sleep,” she said and I inhaled. I got up from the bed, and opened the curtains in the room, the rays of the sun hit me harder than I could have imagined.“It's morning already,” I asked, already feeling anxious with Ivy here.“Are you okay, you seem off,” she said with a worried look on her face.“Why do you care?” I asked her, and she sighed.“I deserve that,” she said and I looked at her confused. “I have been a bad friend and I apologize. You came here to train, I shouldn't be jealous because of that,” I smiled at her words.“I'm glad you feel that way but why the change of heart?” I asked.“I met someone,” she said with her face flushed.“Who?” I squeaked, but she kept blushing. “Tell me,” I lunged at her.“Not yet, I promised to keep it a secret but I will tell you soon,” she said, smiling wide
