Semua Bab DISCOVERING I'M A HYBRID LUNA: Bab 1 - Bab 10

My parents never talked about their son. But I knew him, not just his face from the photos hidden in the basement. I knew him from the heaviness in Dad’s voice when he said goodnight to me and hesitated at the door opposite mine, like he wished he could go in and say it to someone else. And how Mom always stood at the door of the room opposite mine longer than she needed to. I knew grief… grief was contagious. And I had caught it, not in the dramatic way people would imagine, not screaming or crying endlessly. No, this grief was quiet. It was everywhere in the house and it had settled into the walls and furniture and into my skin until I couldn’t tell which was mine and which was theirs. I didn’t replace him, I was only a placeholder for the love they lost, someone that held a piece of their love, a way to keep going. When people spoke about me being the face of the Anti-Werewolf Youth Club, when Zelda rolled her eyes as I spoke yearly at different anti-werewolf fairs. They did

She looked so guilty, it was beautiful to watch. I watched her from my room window, she didn’t shut the blinds. Maybe because she didn’t realize she was being watched. She moved around her room probably fussing about how she acted. A girl like her would want to make up for her actions. I was following her, I could have returned to the house whenever but I wanted it to be in that moment, to get her reaction. I was studying her, her weaknesses, her strengths, and everything about her. I was learning. And she wasn’t so hard to study. The werewolves I had brought to act as my parents were out, they were good at smiling in public and acting like my parents. This mission was mine and they were props. The job was simple; Find the lost daughter of Alpha Fred and Luna Celine. What an irony. My lips tugged into a playful smirk.A werewolf, leading an anti-werewolf youth club.Maya had no idea about her identity.But the moment I saw her, I knew who she was. Her scent hit me, and my w

Maya’s PovI remember thinking it was all a dream, a perfect dream, the kind you wish you’d gotten stranded in.The feeling was pure happiness; pure peace.I was in the clearing with Louis. The Moon was full and rich purple, coloring everything in its glow. His silhouette seemed taller, more majestic against the purple-black heavens. His piercing brown eyes glimmered warmly when I turned back to him.We made love under the midnight heavens, without a care in the world. The worries I’d been battling seemed distant; all I felt was the rush of happiness in simply being close to him, him holding me firm.He pressed his forehead against mine in a silent vow, we were meant to be.My pulse trembled under my skin; something wild and exhilarating flowed through me.Then… something shifted.My senses suddenly opened up, I could smell the sap beneath the bark of nearby trees, the earth beneath my feet.My hair fell forward in thick red coils, growing, lengthening, thickening, until it flowed pas

Louis's PovShe fainted in my arms right after the shift.Not the gentle kind either. Not the cinematic fall-into-his-chest type.Her entire body buckled, like something inside her had finally snapped loose and didn’t know how to piece itself back together.Tyler, my wolf, had howled in triumph the moment her red wolf emerged, but the joy didn’t last long.She collapsed, still halfway in her other form, still leaking adrenaline and moonlight. I held her close, checked her pulse, pressed my hand against her sweat-soaked cheek. Her skin burned like fire, then dropped to ice in under a minute.She was alive. I knew that much. But something was wrong. Something I couldn’t explain.We weren’t alone.There was a shift in the air. The scent was faint, too faint. One of ours. A wolf, no question.I didn’t look. Didn’t acknowledge. Just scooped Maya up and held her tighter.If it was who I thought it was, they’d report back. Word would spread faster than wildfire now, she’d shifted. She’d awak

Maya's PovI left Louis’s house angry. Not the loud kind. The quiet, cold, gut-deep kind that makes your legs shake even when you keep walking like nothing’s wrong.My mind was a mess. How won’t it be when I was just told I wasn’t human. That I was something else. A werewolf. As if that word could fit neatly into my life.I didn’t want to think about what he said. I didn’t want to remember the way his eyes changed. Or how he said he loved me.I hated him for it. And hated myself for not hating him enough.I walked straight home. Same street. Same porch. Nothing had changed, except me.Mrs. Hawke opened the front door before I could. "Maya!” She greeted me with that half-sweet, half-distracted voice she always used when half-watching the news. “There you are. I didn’t know you’d gone out.”I didn’t answer.She gave me a worried look. "Maya darling? Are you okay?”I didn’t turn. I didn’t nod.I made it to my room, shut the door behind me and slid down with my back pressed against it.He
