บททั้งหมดของ Luna of the Lost Bloodline: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 10

Everything was sound and light.Then it was nothing.For a heartbeat—or maybe a century—I floated in blackness. Voices hummed somewhere far away, words stretched and twisted, like echoes underwater. A roar. The creature’s eyes, a molten amber glare cutting through smoke. Then heat—blinding, liquid heat—rushed through me and split into a thousand silver veins of fire.I remembered the earth trembling.The scream that might have been mine.And the way the light burst from my hands like the moon had cracked open inside me.The next thing I knew, I was falling. Not through air but through something thicker, slower. Every memory dragged like syrup. I saw Kael’s face for a flash—shock painted over fury—then it melted into shadow. The creature lunged at me again, jaws open, and the world fractured.A voice whispered inside my head, low and ancient: Wake up, daughter of the broken moon.My eyes snapped open.The forest was silent. Too silent.Ash floated through the air, catching what little

The second explosion didn’t sound like thunder this time; it sounded like the sky tearing in half. Pressure crashed through me, heat blossoming outward, and then everything dissolved into silence. I wasn’t sure if I was still screaming or if sound had simply stopped existing. For a moment there was only white—white light, white pain, white nothing.When the world stitched itself back together, I was lying on my side in a pit of ash and glassy soil. My ears rang. The air tasted of metal and rain. I pushed up on shaking elbows and blinked through the haze. What had been forest now looked like a burned painting: trees reduced to silhouettes, leaves drifting down like black snow.“Auren!” My voice came out raw. Smoke swallowed it.The memory of the flash still lived behind my eyes—his hand reaching for me, that single look of warning before we were ripped apart. I tried to move toward where he’d been, but the ground heaved beneath me, still shuddering with leftover energy. Blue veins of l

The forest was alive with movement—branches whipping, the earth shuddering under our feet as we ran. Every heartbeat slammed like thunder in my ears, loud enough I couldn’t tell if it was mine or the pulse of something chasing us. The air stank of smoke and damp fur; the night itself seemed to breathe. Auren moved ahead of me, a shadow carved from the dark, and I followed the rhythm of his steps because thinking meant remembering and remembering meant slowing down—and slowing down meant dying.Something howled behind us, too close. The sound tore through the trees, sharp enough to make my chest ache. I felt the call echo in the part of me I didn’t want to understand—the part that wasn’t human at all. My blood answered, a low, rising hum under my skin. I tried to suppress it, but it burned hotter the harder I fought.“Left!” Auren’s voice cut through the chaos. I stumbled into a turn, skidding through wet leaves. The forest opened to a steep ridge, roots jutting like claws from the soi

The light in the cell shifted as the door beyond the glass hissed open. Kael stepped through the mist like a shadow given flesh. He looked exactly as I remembered—tall, composed, the same eyes that once held the pack together—but colder now. Everything human in him had been burned away and reforged into control.My palms pressed against the glass. It thrummed faintly, like it recognized my power and dared me to try. The air itself hummed with energy, symbols pulsing along the edges of the walls. Whatever this prison was, it wasn’t human-made alone. The sigils etched in the glass shimmered with ancient magic.Kael smiled when he saw me. Not kindly. Like a scientist might smile at the creature that finally behaved. 'Alive,' he said. 'Good.'I wanted to speak, to demand answers, but my throat was dry. The last thing I remembered was the blast, the sky turning white, Auren’s voice fading in the chaos. Now there was only silence and this cage. 'You’re supposed to be dead,' I whispered.Kae

The red lights burned through my eyelids, searing the shape of my prison into my mind. Kael’s voice still echoed through the intercom, a ghost sliding down my spine. My body trembled—not with fear this time, but with something deeper. Power. It pulsed beneath my skin like a living thing, whispering for release.I opened my eyes. The walls around me shimmered, etched with sigils that hummed with faint energy. Glass, steel, and magic intertwined. Kael had learned from the last time. I pressed my palm against the wall, and static raced through me. My vision blurred for a second—then cleared. There, in the reflection, I saw what I had become. Shadows coiled around my body, faint golden veins pulsing through my arms like cracks of sunlight. I looked half-human, half-something else entirely.“You can’t cage what you don’t understand,” I whispered.The speakers hissed to life. “I understand enough,” Kael’s voice drawled. “Your blood is the missing piece, Aria. Do you even know what you are?”
