All Chapters of SAVAGE LUNA : Chapter 61 - Chapter 70

LYRA I felt my heart hammering against my ribs like a trapped bird, and I turned to Kael with wide, panicked eyes. The knocking came again, louder this time, heavy thuds that made the wood of the door groan. "You have to leave, now!" I hissed. Kael didn’t move at first, his gaze fixed on the door with a low growl vibrating in his chest, but I pushed against his shoulders with everything I had. He looked back at me, his eyes dark and intense, then he turned and vaulted over the windowsill in one smooth motion. He vanished into the darkness of the night just as the knocking turned into a frantic pounding. I scrambled to the bed, smoothing out the sheets with trembling hands, and I sucked in a deep breath to settle the shaking in my lungs. I walked to the door and pulled it open, bracing myself for a shouting match, but I stopped dead when I saw Lucian. He wasn't red-faced or screaming. He stood there with his shoulders slumped and a heavy, melancholic look on his face that made

LYRAWhen I woke up the next morning, the space beside me was empty and cold. Kael was gone, probably back to his own pack’s quarters before the sun could fully expose us, but the sheets still smelled like him. It was that scent of pine and rain that always made my heart skip, and I couldn't help it; I pulled the duvet up and hugged it tight against my chest. I had a very bright smile on my face, and for a second, I just lay there feeling the warmth of the memory.But then reality kicked in. I wasn't in Ironclaw territory; I was in the heart of the Blackfang Pack, surrounded by people who wanted me dead or gone. I forced myself out of bed and headed straight for the bath. I needed to wash the scent of another Alpha off my skin before Lucian saw me. He had a nose like a bloodhound when it came to me, and the last thing I needed was him smelling Kael Thorne on my neck and starting a war before I was ready. I scrubbed my skin until it was red, making sure every trace of Kael was gone, an

LUCIANI was standing there, my blood boiling as I watched Karl's hand resting on Lyra’s hip, and I was ready to rip his throat out right in the middle of my own hallway. I expected her to shrink away or maybe even cry, but then she did something I never expected. She burst into laughter. It wasn't a small giggle either; it was a loud, mocking sound that echoed off the stone walls and made my skin crawl. She looked at me like I was the most pathetic thing she had ever seen, and she started limping forward until she was right in my space."Are you truly that naive, Lucian?" she asked, her voice dripping with enough venom to kill a grown wolf. "Do you really believe that after everything you did to me, after you watched them throw me out like nothing, I would just come back and forgive you so easily?"I felt the air leave my lungs, and my stomach dropped. I looked at her, searching for even a tiny spark of the girl who used to look at me with stars in her eyes, but there was nothing t

LYRAThe plan in my head was simple enough, and it didn't involve waiting for Lucian to make a mistake. We had to infiltrate the pack from the inside, and we had to do it by hitting him where he was weakest: his control over the people he thought didn't matter. I looked at Kael, who was watching me with that intense, focused expression he always had when things were about to get messy."We need to form an alliance," I said, my voice sounding steadier than I felt. "But not with the warriors or the high-ranking families. I want to start with the omegas, the ones who were born weak and disposable just like I was. The more support I have from the bottom, the more agitated Lucian is going to get."Kael frowned, and he stood up to pace the small room again. "Lyra, that's incredibly risky. If you start organizing the omegas, you’re basically painting a target on your back for every elder in this pack. They already hate you, and if they see you as a threat to their social order, they won't ju

LYRA I was fuming as I watched Marrek stand there with that smug look on his face, and it took everything in me not to lunge at him right then and there. He stopped just a few feet away, leaning in close enough that I could smell his sour breath, and he reminded me of my place. He called me an exiled weakling and laughed, a dry, rattling sound that made my skin crawl, and then he just turned and walked away like he had already won the war. I stood there, shaking with a rage so hot I thought I might actually shift right in the middle of the courtyard, but then I felt Kael’s arms wrap around me. He pulled me into a hug, and for a second, the wall I had built around myself just crumbled. I cried into his chest, letting out all the frustration and the hurt of being back in this place that hated me, but it only lasted a minute.I sobered up quickly and wiped my face, pulling away from Kael so I could address the pack members who were still huddled together, looking at me like I was their
