All Chapters of BOUND BY THE MOON: Chapter 71 - Chapter 74

NovaI sat by the window staring into the vast night.The moonlight slipped in through the crack in my window, casting pale streaks across the hardwood floor of my bedroom.Earlier, I was curled in bed, the covers bunched around my waist, damp from the sweat of yet another nightmare.My chest rose and fell in uneven beats, heart thrashing like it wanted to escape the cage of my ribs and crawl out through my mouth. Which now that I fully think about it, sounds extremely disgusting but fuck that’s how I felt.Sleep never came easy anymore these days.Every time since that damned night, whenever I closed my eyes, I was dragged back into the darkness the place where she waited, and I was brought face to face with her.The witch.Her voice still lingered in my ears like smoke. Whispering. Threatening. Reminding me of all the things I’d done. All the things I could still do."You were born to serve chaos, Nova," she would hiss. "You are nothing without me. You need me."And the worst part?

KairosIt was one of these days that I had enough time to realize how much of a fool I was,Kind of pathetic really that I thought Carol was dead and even though she had spelt it out in caps lock that she would never love me, I still decided to risk it all for her like the fucking fool that I was.In the end, she was one of them.I felt so fucking stupid that day and my heart was broken. I was willing to risk it all, my friendship with Alpha King Ronan, my position as beta, my life if need be, all so that she would be ok, and that she will eventually see that I was he one for her, turns out that the joke was on me literally.Maybe I was fucking pathetic but I hadn’t slept much lately. Anytime I closed my eyes, I couldn’t seem to get rid of her beautiful face haunting my dreams, her body, goddess her soft skin and her beautiful curves.Fuck!"Fool," I muttered to myself, the words tasted bitter on my tongue.I clenched his fists, nails digging into my palms, trying to ground himself.
