All Chapters of Moonblood: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Forty-Two: You’re MineEIRACassian stares at me, looking so deeply into my soul. He takes a step forward, and I take two back.Just like a predator, his eyes flash, lips curled up in a wolfish smirk, exposing the tips of his fangs.A low rumble echoes in his chest. “I’ve missed you, mate.”My stomach tightens, arousal pooling between my thighs at the pure pheromones he is exuding, the domincae in each step he takes.Every other thought fades away, the world fades too. All that’s left is two souls, yearning for each other.The bond throbs painfully in my chest, heat licking across every skin his eyes touch. And when he takes the last step closer, the back of my legs hit the bed…And I fall.I land on the bed, and I feel like I can float. Cassian joins me a second later, and he doesn’t look away from me.Even as his body fits between my thighs, he just stares like I’m something he’s never seen. A rarity, not an oddity.“Eira Quinn.” My name falls from his lips like a muttered prayer, s

Forty-Four: Betrayal And ForgivenessEIRAI see the moment it dawns on him. Cassian’s gaze cuts to Kael, then to me.“He’s an alpha,” he whispers from the floor.Asha struggles to take Kael, and she succeeds while he screams and cries.“We’re sorry, carry on,” she pats Kael on his back, shutting the door on her way out.Cassian stares at me, eyes dimming with hurt, betrayal.“He’s mine, isn’t he?”I don’t respond. How can I when he’s looking at me like that?He slowly rises to his feet, my pulse quickens.“Cassian,” I try. “I’m so—”He shakes his head. “I need a minute, Eira. I…” he pauses. “I need to think.”A lump settles like a boulder in my throat, thick. Heavy.When he turns to the door, he stops. “I have a question.”Goddess, his voice is quiet. Barely audible, like his wolf was kicked. I wait patiently for the question, holding unto the sheet with white knuckles.“Were you–” he chokes out. “Were you ever going to tell me?”No. But I don’t tell him that.“Please…”He just shakes

Forty-Six: Healing Abilities Returned?EIRA“Oh goddess, Esme. I’m sorry.” I drop to my knees. Pain shoots up my legs, and I wince.Cassian steps in immediately, picking me up. “What are you doing? You’ve hurt yourself.”Blood seeps out from knees, mixing with the dark liquid. Small glasses poke out from my skin.“Please, sit Your Majesty.” Esme points to a chair at the corner. “I’ll pack this up.”She hands him some wipes and a balm while he sits with me in his lap.“You’re always so jumpy,” he complains, dragging out the glasses from my knees.Tears burn my eyes, but I bite my lip, letting him work.When he tugs a little too hard, I yelp.“I’m sorry,” he says.His brows are pinched in concentration as he takes out all the glasses, and eventually cleans me up, rubbing the balm on my knee caps.My eyes lift to his. “Thank you.”“It’s fine. What was that, though?”“We were learning new mixtures,” I lie, averting my gaze with a sigh. “Esme was teaching me—”“And you didn’t want me to fi

Forty-eight: CrossroadsEIRA“What is the meaning of this?” His voice booms loud across the room. Henrik and Asha flinch, while Kael bursts into tears, running into my arms.I glare at Cassian. His eyes soften a bit before hardening again.His lips curl. “What is this, Henrik?”“Alpha David asked me to give it you. He said it’s from the palace.”“I can see that!” Cassian hisses, scrunching the invite in his grip. “How dare they?!”Asha takes Kael away from me, a pitiful look in her gaze as she mouths, “I’m sorry.”I don’t respond.“You may leave, Henrik,” Cassian instructs and turns to me immediately. “I didn’t know about this, Eira.”“I know.”“I swear to the goddess, I will fix this.”All I do is shrug.I’m numb, and I’m speechless.Cassian chose this when he rejected me. Nothing can be done again.No matter what he does, he’s still the king and he has a Luna fit enough to rule at his side.The sooner I understand that, the sooner I can shove these feelings to the back of my mind an

Fifty: New GuyEIRAI swallow thickly. “Let me go, Cassian.”“How can you expect me to do that, Eira Quinn. You’re my mate, it’s impossible to let you go.”My jaw tightens. I was his mate five years ago, and he still let me go. What’s the difference now?I’m probably still bitter about everything, especially with the rumors I’ve heard. My name is soiled and dragged through mud, I’m at the end of their taunts—like always.“Do you know what the pack is saying about me?”“I don’t care about that, we know it isn’t true.”I scoff, a dry chuckle slipping past my lips. “It’s so easy for you to say, right? Because you’re the king, the Alpha, you’re untouchable.”His arm loosens. “You know that’s not what I meant.”It isn’t fair, I know. But what would you have me do? There’s no happy ending for Cassian and I. The coronation is happening whether I want it to or not.“Cassian, please-” I shrug out of his hold. “Go to your Luna. They cannot know about us, and neither should they know about Lysan
