All Chapters of Bound by the moon: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

The training yard smelled of dust, sweat, and iron. The morning sun was already harsh, beating down on the backs of recruits as they lined up. No rank, no status just bodies learning how far they could push themselves. However the Alphas and betas had it better and it made me want to be one so bad. But it doesn't really matter I thought no position is easier for anyone.“Breathe through it,” the instructor barked, pacing with the whip-crack authority of someone who’d done this too many times. “If you burn out too soon, you’re no good to your pack in battle.”The whistle shrieked, sharp and merciless, and my body obeyed before my mind could argue. Joining the other omega's who were already training.Feet hit the dirt. Arms pumped. Breath tore through my throat like fire. Around me, the others moved forward, their strides easy, confident, but mine, mine felt like dragging stone behind me.The ground was hard, sun-baked, and each step sent shockwaves up my legs. By the first corn

It was supposed to be Cael’s gift day.I’d been waiting for this moment, the day his body finally recovered enough to stand in the ring without flinching, without stumbling. He’d earned it. The last stretch of training had stripped him down to the bone, and yet he endured, stubborn as ever. When he stepped into the training centre, the scent of his determination filled the air. My chest swelled with pride. My omega, my mate, was whole again.They paired him with Bradwin, Rosel’s left hand. A brutal opponent, but fair. I watched as they circled each other, movements sharp and deliberate. Cael fought like his life depended on it, and in a way, it did. His strikes landed cleaner than I’d ever seen, his stamina stretched longer than it should have. Every blow was a promise that he wasn’t weak, that he wasn’t just surviving, he was thriving.I couldn’t have been more proud.When the spar ended, I asked to replace Bradwin for the final match. I wanted to test Cael myself, to feel the str

"Did you forget you killed your father, A man of virtue who had died trying to protect you" "Omegas like you do not belong here especially as our Luna lunavara deserves better" "We do not need a killer as our Luna my king and you should break the bond you have with him" "Besides our land is healed and he has fulfilled his mission here as your mate" "I agree my king the prophesy has been fulfilled so he means nothing to us" Why are these elders saying this about me, do they really want me out, is this what Thorne thinks as well. Does he agree with them? Why is he not saying anything "I Thorne king of lunavara reject you Cael of Rose circle pack......." "No, no Thorne, please stop it, Thorne look at me pls stop for the sake of our pups please...." The pain is too much I can't I I can't brea...th Thorne why aren't you looking at me Why are you breaking our bond? Jolting up from the nightmare that plagued me the first thing I felt was pain. Not sharp, not screaming, but

The moon crawled behind a veil of cloud, its pale face a smear across the sky. Inside my private chamber, tapestries drank the light until only stitched shadows remained. I closed the door and let the muffled sounds of the servants fall away the distant clank of armor, a cough in a corridor until the room belonged only to me and the breathing of those I’d summoned.They arrived as they always did: quiet as knives. Darius first, a silhouette that filled the doorway broad shoulders, the straight line of his jaw cutting against the gloom. He moved with a soldier’s economy; every step measured, every glance a calculation. Malek followed like an echo, smaller, lithe, his grin edged with contempt. The two of them carried the same amber spark that lived in Thorne’s eyes, but where Thorne tempered fire into restraint, they let it gutter and flare.My hands did not tremble as I poured wine. The liquid coughed into three cups, dark as a wound, sending a thin scent of iron and grapes into the

my wound had healed over night and I was surprised because that was the first for me. It usually takes me days to heal even being friend with a healer didn't change that. Lyra always teased me for that. Still wondering how it happened but decided to put it at the back of my mind.We left Rosel's pack later during the day even at the risk of rogues attack. On getting to moon grove, everything felt different. The forest welcomed me back like an old song I couldn’t quite remember the words to. The trees of Moon Grove stood taller than I recalled, their roots tangled like veins beneath the earth, their canopies shivering in whispers I felt more than understood. The air itself was different here thicker, alive, humming with threads of energy that slid across my skin like water.I stopped at the edge of the clearing, my boots sinking into moss that pulsed faintly under the moonlight. For a heartbeat, I almost turned back. The weight of expectation pressed too heavy on my shoulders, a cro
