บททั้งหมดของ The Alpha’s Moonbreather : บทที่ 31 - บทที่ 40

There was a long, stretched silence after Elder Kion said, “That is enough.”Like everyone was still expecting something to happen. Maybe they were still panicking, Elise wasn’t sure.She stood frozen in the circle, her chest rising and falling as if she’d just ran a mile. Her palms were still glowing faintly, like the light was still contemplating on wether to stay or leave. She looked at her palms, wondering how to quench the light.She almost didn’t know how to put it on, not to talk of putting it off.The warrior she’d just faced had taken another step back. His expression was unreadable, but it wasn’t mocking. If anything, he looked… fascinated by the lights flickering on her plans.He looked at Elise with respect.Elder Kion walked slowly to a pavement close to the circle where Elise and the warrior were standing.The other council members stood with him, whispering amongst themselves.Their eyes stayed fixed on Elise.“She’s able to control the light,” one of them said.“I

Elise sat by the window of the infirmary, her legs were folded together, swinging back and forth while she rested her forehead on the sliding glass of the window.Outside, the training grounds were full of movement, they were filed with the sounds of laughter, shouting, and the rhythmic clash of weapons. Life was continuing, like nothing had happened. Everyone even seemed happier. The thought of this gave Elise mixed feelings and emotions. Not like she wanted them to be sad, she just felt bad for not fully enjoying or the happiness which loomed over them.It all felt surreal.Like she hadn’t just lost the one thing that made her feel like she belonged. Like she wasn’t sitting here, broken and forgotten.Kai had stepped out for a few minutes. He’d been hovering around her nonstop, barely leaving her side, and while Elise appreciated it, a part of her needed space. She didn’t want to be a burden to him.And it wasn’t because of him in anyway.Not because of him, but because of ho

The room was quiet.Too quiet.Elise shifted under the covers, her brow creased as she turned her face into the pillow. Her body felt stiff. Her mind wasn’t fully awake, but something tugged at her.The dream.It had been one of those dreams, the kind that left your skin cold and your chest tight, even after you woke up.She sat up slowly, rubbing her arms.She had seen them again.Feral wolves.Not just one this time. Not like the WhiteMoon Ball. There were many of them. Their glowing red eyes, their torn black fur, their twisted snouts, teeth so sharp they looked like they could cut through stone.And they were running.No.Hunting.In the dream, Elise had been standing in a village. One she didn’t recognize, but it felt familiar. The sky was gray. The wind was loud. And the wolves were everywhere. Tearing through homes. Ripping into anything that moved. The screams… thosevscreams wouldn’t leave her head.“Elise.”Her door creaked open.She jumped slightly.Kai stood ther

No!!!!!Elise screamed out from her sleep, panting heavily and sweating profusely.She had yet another dream again.This time, she didn’t remember it. But when she woke up, she was scared. She tried so hard to remember her dream, but she couldn’t. So she stood up and went to the toilet to take a piss.She yawned loudly while stretching on the toilet seat.“Hmm, my breath stinks.” She said while wrinkling her nose after she smelled her breath while covering her mouth and nose as she was yawning.After which she cleaned up and flushed. After placing the toothpaste on her toothbrush, Elise stared at the mirror in front of her. She hadn’t seen herself in weeks or months. That was the least of her problems.She started in the mirror while sighing as she started brushing her teeth. Her hair was messy and her face puffy. Looking at the mirror, a flash of her dream came through. She remembered seeing Kai. Kneeling down in his alpha suit or armor and he was crying over something. Or

The next morning crept in softly, but Elise didn’t rise with it.She moved gently, her eyes fluttering open to the dull light sunlight in the sky which looked like it was going to rain.Her back ached, and her neck felt stiff from sleeping in a curled position on the edge of the cot, but she didn’t complain. Kai was still beside her, sitting on the floor against the wall, arms folded across his chest, head slightly tilted as if he’d dozed off while thinking overnight.She watched him for a moment—his breath even, lashes resting lightly on bruised skin.He had some cuts and bruises on bus face, hands and legs, but he didn't seem to care about it as his only concern was Lucien at the moment.She wondered how he was feeling inwardly.He looked tired, but not just from lack of sleep. It was the kind of exhaustion that came from carrying the weight of too much responsibility, too much pain. She knew it herself, one could see it from afar.And Kai wasn't even the type to show his pain or
