บททั้งหมดของ MARKED BY THE MOON : บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Chapter OneAstria's POVBeing born an omega is one thing. But being the only omega in over a thousand years? That’s a whole different pain.My parents were disappointed the moment they found out what I was. I still remember the look on my mother’s face, shocked and heartbroken. And my father? He sneered at me like I was filth.He’s the Gamma of the pack. Having an omega as a daughter embarrassed him. He always believed I’d be a beta or at least a regular pack member. But no, I turned out the complete opposite of his precious daughter, Gina.Gina has everything. Beauty, brains, strength. And to crown it all, she’s an Alpha. Every male in the pack wants her. Even the Alpha’s son, Jason, wants her as his mate. But they’re not mates, at least not yet. She had her eighteenth birthday last year and was mad when she didn’t get him. She’s always wanted to be Luna.Even the current Luna, Jason’s mother, was disappointed. She wanted Gina as her son’s mate too. But I guess the Moon Goddess has

Chapter Three Astria’s POVIt’s been a month since I left my old pack. I now live on the outskirts of the Alpha King’s territory, the Blood Moon Pack.I stay with an older couple who found me wandering near the borders. They took me in, no questions asked. I had nowhere else to go, and they offered me a home.They have a daughter around my age, Mariah. She’s bubbly, daring, and so outspoken, a complete opposite of me. Somehow, we clicked right away. Even though I was reluctant at first, she became my first real friend.“My mum says the moon goddess always gives second chances,” Mariah grinned, tossing a potato into the basket as we picked vegetables for dinner. “Who knows? You might find your second-chance mate here.”Her father’s farm is one of the most important in the territory. We help out with the harvest and ensure the Blood Pack never goes hungry. Mariah hummed softly beside me, swinging her legs as we took a break under the shade of a tree near the edge of the farm. The win

Chapter FiveAstria’s POVWe arrived later than expected, so there was no time to catch our breath. All pack members, including the invited guests, were already moving toward the forest’s edge, the sacred entrance for the Blood Moon Run. The tension in the air was thick with anticipation and instinct. I could feel it vibrating beneath my skin.Everyone was shifting, some into their wolf forms, others remaining human. The red moon hadn’t fully risen yet, but its light was already creeping into the sky, casting a crimson glow over the trees like a warning or a promise.“You don’t have to worry about shifting,” Mariah said, nudging me gently as she handed me a silver loose slip dress. “Some of us choose not to. The blood moon heightens our senses, smell, and instinct. It’s easy to lose control in wolf form.”I nodded, fingers brushing the smooth fabric. Apparently, it was tradition for females to wear slip dresses during the run, while the males wore only shorts. Something about being co

Astria’s POVI’m still me… just different.My once simple white hair now flows like liquid moonlight, shimmering as though spun from silver itself. My face feels sculpted, refined, ethereal, touched by something not of this world. And my eyes… Those strange pink eyes burn brighter than ever, glowing with an intensity that makes me shiver when I catch my own reflection.I slide my hands slowly down the length of my body, every inch softer, every curve sharper, perfectly carved as though the Goddess herself molded me anew. But it’s not just the change in flesh. There’s something deeper, a pull in the air around me. An ancient energy, vast and commanding, clings to me like a second skin. It thrums in my veins, whispers in my bones.The maid bows low, her voice trembling yet reverent.“Luna Queen, the Alpha King commanded me to prepare you. You’re to meet your friends in the pack gardens.”Luna Queen?The title rings in my ears, heavy, impossible. My chest tightens, panic clawing at me. H

Zeyric’s POVThe ride was silent, but the air between us was heavy, thick with a tension I couldn’t ignore. Astria sat beside me, her presence pulling at something primal and dangerous inside me. Every time her scent drifted toward me soft, intoxicating. I had to fight the urge to lean closer. She looked nervous, fiddling with her fingers as though she carried the weight of a secret she couldn’t tell.When we arrived, the restaurant staff practically bent at the waist as soon as they caught sight of me. Their respect was expected, yet my gaze never left Astria. I wanted her to see this world, this respect, this power. It was hers too, whether she believed it or not.The head chef personally rushed forward, nearly tripping over himself in his eagerness.“Alpha King, we’ve prepared your private suite as requested.”“Good,” I replied curtly, my hand instinctively brushing against Astria’s lower back as I guided her inside. She stiffened under my touch, and I felt her hesitation like a bl
