Semua Bab Lovers For The Blood Moon: Bab 131 - Bab 140

Echoes of Ash and Promise John’s eyelids fluttered open to a world painted in hues of grey ash and cold, slivered moonlight. The acrid scent of smoke filled his nostrils, each breath a ragged reminder of the battle that had nearly claimed him. His body ached fiercely ribs cracked, skin bruised purple and black, muscles trembling with exhaustion. Yet despite the pain, he was alive.But he wasn’t where he had been moments ago.The portal to the Hollow had collapsed behind him, leaving him stranded in a desolate version of Black Hollow. The town lay broken, twisted by some cruel magic windows shattered like shattered dreams, streets cracked open and curling like ancient parchment, skeletal trees reaching toward the blood moon’s fading glow.The silence was suffocating.John forced himself upright, legs weak beneath him. His heart hammered not from pain, but fear. Where was Sarah?A whisper teased at the edges of his hearing, soft as a breeze yet sharp enough to slice through his fog of

The Choice of the MarkedJohn’s chest heaved as he opened his eyes to a new void, a chamber made of shifting stone and breathing darkness. The air felt too still. No sound, no echo, just him, alone.Sarah was gone.“Sarah!” he shouted.The sound vanished the moment it left his lips, swallowed whole by the oppressive silence.A pulse throbbed beneath his feet. The Hollow wasn’t just alive it was listening.John stumbled forward, calling her name again, louder, until his throat was raw. There was no trace of her, not even the warmth she left behind, his fists clenched. He’d been through fire and shadow, fought monsters, broken curses but this… this emptiness?This was worse.And then it spoke again.“You were given a choice.”The Keeper’s voice echoed from the walls, no longer gentle now jagged and cold.“You’ve seen your past, you've seen your blood. The Hollow will not let you go unless a vow is fulfilled.”John gritted his teeth. “You expect me to sacrifice someone I love again? Li

The Breaking MoonThe wind howled as the earth split beneath Black Hollow. Cracks spread like veins through the forest, swallowing trees and tearing apart the roads. Townsfolk stumbled from their homes, staring up at the sky in terror.The moon was bleeding.John stood at the edge of the ritual ground, his body trembling, torn between rage and despair. Sarah or what was left of her was somewhere inside the storm of shadows now circling the Hollow. He could feel her, trapped, fading.“She’s still in there,” he muttered, gripping the dagger Saraphina had given him. “I know she is.”“Then you better move fast,” said Saraphina, appearing beside him, her robes torn, hair soaked with ash. “Whatever you woke… it’s feeding off the vow.”“The vow?” he asked.“You promised her love, loyalty, that blood vow under the eclipse it bound your soul to hers. That’s what they wanted all along.”Lightning cracked again, and from the distance, a scream shattered the air. Not Sarah’s, something older, som

The Edge of ShadowsThe bitter wind howled through the ruined valley, carrying with it the scent of ash and despair. Saraphina tightened her grip on John’s trembling hand, feeling the coldness seeping through his skin. The chasm beneath them pulsed with an eerie blue flame that danced like restless spirits trapped between worlds. Around them, the remnants of a once-majestic temple lay in shattered ruin, broken pillars and scorched stone telling silent stories of betrayal and bloodshed.John’s breaths were shallow and rapid, each one a fragile thread holding him to life. His pale face was etched with pain, yet his eyes burned with a stubborn defiance that refused to fade. Saraphina’s heart hammered fiercely in her chest as she glanced down at the talisman resting against her chest, a pulsating source of power and hope, woven with ancient magic older than any living soul. “You carry the legacy,” the spirit intoned, her voice echoing like distant thunder. “The curse and the hope intertw

The Blood BargainJohn, standing at the edge of an impossible choice, sacrifices himself to save Sarah, or allow the curse to claim her. With Saraphina urging him to choose quickly, the voice of the ancient being presses into his mind, mocking his hesitation.Meanwhile, visions flood John's mind, showing him the truth behind the Blood Moon curse how the original priestess betrayed the god by binding it beneath Black Hollow, using the blood of a loved one to do it. Now, history is repeating.John refuses to accept either option. He confronts the altar, demanding a different path. His rebellion awakens the spirit of his father, who appears briefly, revealing that there is a forbidden third vow. The Vow of Unity, one that fuses the souls of the lovers into a single force, capable of breaking the curse but costing them their human lives.As Sarah awakens, she hears enough to know the risk. Instead of begging John to save her, she offers herself, telling him she’s ready to die if it means
