All Chapters of Runaway Luna Rider: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

Kiera’s POV I woke in the room where I’d been locked. Last night, when they’d thrown me in here, I hadn’t gotten a good look at it. Now, in the morning light filtering through the barred window, I could see everything.The room was unsettling in its comfort. A bed with clean sheets, not a bare floor. A small table and chair, both sturdy and well-made. A washbasin with water that looked fresh. Everything was clean, organized, deliberately maintained. The walls were stone but smooth, painted a pale color that should have felt calming but didn’t.The lock clicked softly when I tested it. Not loudly. The sound suggested control rather than punishment.I reflected on how different this was from what I’d expected. Stormclaw had a dungeon… I’d seen it, met the witch there. But they’d thrown me in a room instead. What were Zeus’s intentions?This place felt polite in its imprisonment, and that frightened me more than chains would have.I tested the door again, already knowing the result. Loc

Darius’s POV I watched Stormclaw territory from concealment just beyond the border, hidden in thick brush that scratched at my exposed skin.The land felt hostile. The air was heavy with dominance that pressed against me like a physical weight. Foreign scents clawed at my senses, unfamiliar wolves, marked territory, violence embedded in the very ground.I noted new sigils carved into trees and stones. Fresh marks that glowed faintly in the darkness.Stormclaw had tightened security significantly.My wolf was restless inside me, urging violence. He wanted to charge in, find Kiera, and tear apart anyone who stood in our way. But I suppressed the urge. This mission required patience, not rage.I recalled the announcement I’d heard echoing through the areas outside Stormclaw territory. The competition would be held in three days.That bothered me. Stormclaw never announced competitions in advance. They usually happened the same day, giving no one time to prepare or interfere. What kind o

Darius’s POV I was looking at Kiera through that window, and I couldn’t help but become emotional. My chest tightened with guilt so heavy it felt like drowning. This was my fault. My stupidity had put her in this condition. My failure to protect her, to stand up to the council, to be the mate she deserved, all of it had led to this moment.Suddenly, a piercing scream shattered my thoughts. Not a battle cry. Raw panic.Horns blasted across Stormclaw territory… alarm signals, not ceremonial.Guards exploded out of sleeping quarters, half-armed and half-dressed. Confusion spread like wildfire.“Enemy territory must have breached the border!” one guard shouted, buckling his weapons belt as he ran.“Rogue infiltration!” another yelled back. “Has to be!”Conflicting orders came from multiple directions.“Form ranks!”“Protect the inner compound!”“Lock the captives down immediately!”A frantic guard stumbled from the storage wing, screaming incoherently. His face was white, eyes wide with

Kiera’s POV Zeus entered my room, and my heart stopped.I’d barely had time to push Darius toward the heavy curtain near the window before the door swung fully open. He disappeared behind the thick fabric just as Zeus stepped inside.Zeus moved slowly, deliberately. His eyes scanned every corner of the room like a predator searching for prey. The dominance radiating from him was suffocating, pressing down on me until I could barely breathe.“Did you hear the commotion tonight?” he asked casually, as if we were having a polite conversation.My heart pounded so loudly I was certain he could hear it. “Yes. I heard shouting. Alarms.”Zeus circled the room, his footsteps measured and careful. He trailed one hand along the wall, then the bedpost, examining everything with unsettling attention to detail.“And did you see anything unusual?” His voice remained calm, almost pleasant. That made it more terrifying.“No.” I forced myself to meet his eyes. “I only heard noise from outside. I could

Kiera’s POV Morning arrived too quickly, dragging me from restless sleep into a reality I wasn’t prepared to face.Guards came for me without explanation. They didn’t knock politely or ask if I was ready. They simply unlocked the door and ordered me to come with them.“Where are we going?” I asked.“Zeus’s orders. Move.”They escorted me through corridors I’d never seen before, down stairs and through passages that seemed designed to disorient. Finally, we emerged into the main courtyard.All guards were assembled there. Dozens of them, over a hundred, standing in loose formation. Their faces showed varying degrees of concern, suspicion, and false confidence.My eyes scanned the crowd automatically, searching without meaning to.Then I saw him.Darius stood among the other guards, dressed identically to them, his posture carefully neutral. He didn’t look at me, didn’t acknowledge my presence at all.My heart stopped.What was he doing here? Why hadn’t he escaped when he had the chanc
