All Chapters of Luna's Shadow: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

002 Just then, the sudden creak of the door cut her off abruptly. It was Rebecca's mother and her sister. The look on their face was that of worry as they hurried towards Rebecca and Kenziel."Becca..." Her mother cried her as she grabbed her hands gently, fondling them in her. "Thank Moon goddess you've finally woken up!"Rebecca could sense the worry in her mother's voice. As she looked up to her face, she saw the dried trail of tears on it. Her eyes were still swollen and red but the glint of relief still had its trail in her eyes."You scared us, Rebecca." Her sister's voice came up, earning Rebecca's attention. She was sitting on Rebecca's bed foot. "You should have seen how mom was worried. Alpha Kenziel was restless as well — mostly when the pack's physician couldn't detect what was wrong with you."Rebecca laughed softly to ease the tension in the room. "I'm fine, okay?" She called out slowly, a small smile on her lips. "It's not that I'm gone. Like death or something."Kenzi

004 "This isn't the first time you've bled like this." Herzl said quietly, his voice a laced with concern. "You have always taken longer to heal than others, even before you were bitten. Remember that time you scraped your knee as a child and it took weeks to heal?"Rebecca frowned, her eyes flickering towards him. "I...I remember." She said, her voice small. "But I thought that was just because I was human."Rebecca’s response was barely out before a sudden sensation, like a mental “ping”, vibrated across Kenziel’s mind, interrupting his attention. For a split second, his focus wavered, but he quickly refocused on the scene before him.Herzl’s eyes darted between Kenziel and Rebecca, sensing the shift in Kenziel’s concentration. "Alpha...?" Herzl asked, concerned."Something’s wrong." Kenziel growled, his wolf instincts heightening his senses. "Alexander's calling, but I can't leave Rebecca like this."Herzl’s eyes widened, understanding the urgency of the situation. "Alpha, I can t

006 "Her scent?" Kenziel echoed, his brow furrowing in confusion. "I hadn't noticed anything different about her scent. Why? What are you suggesting?"The question was one that hung in the air, a hint of concern and suspicion lacing Herzl's words. Was there something amiss with Rebecca, beyond the wound she suffered? Or was Herzl’s sense of smell playing tricks on him?True, Herzl's sense of smelling is more sharpened and heightened than a normal werewolf, and he can perceive things from hundreds of miles — funny enough, he can also differentiate scents.“But is his sense of smelling accurate this time as well?” Kenziel questioned himself, but he doubt if it's playing tricks on Herzl — he has never said things, else he's sure of it.Kenziel felt a knot forming in the pit of his stomach, a sense of unease washing over him. Was there something they were missing?"Rebecca..." Herzl's paused his lips, pressing it into a thin line for a moment before he continued. "— she smells entirely d

008 The council meeting room was silent but for the rustle of papers and the occasional murmur as the pack's elders discussed the recent attack on their southern borders.. Worry and frustration filled the air as they tried to pinpoint the source of the threat, the possibility of an insider assisting the rogues looming large in their minds.Suddenly, the heavy wooden doors of the room swung open, and a sudden silence fell over the assembly. Alexander strode in, his two patrols were behind him as their footsteps echoing on the stone floor.As the sound of footsteps died down, Alexander and his patrols stopped just inside the entrance. Between them, they were dragging a werewolf, who was covered in blood and bruises, so weak that he could barely stand on his own.Kenziel, the Alpha, shot a piercing gaze at the trio, his expression a mixture of shock and concern. "What is the meaning of this?" He asked, but then it dawn on him as he realized the face isn't identified. "Is this the rogue?

010 The rogue let out a low, pained chuckle. "You heard me, Alpha." He rasped. "You think I'm the only one who wants your Luna dead? You think it's only the Silver Moon Pack that has their eyes on her — someone in your pack also want her gone. You can't protect her forever."Kenziel’s eyes flashed with murderous rage, his hands clenching into fists. "You..." he growled, taking a menacing step towards the rogue.Kenziel's hand shot out like lightning, grabbing the rogue by the throat with a savage grip. The broken wolf choked and gurgled but Kenziel only tightened his hold."You dare threaten me with my mate, my Luna, at the cost of your own life?" he spat, his eyes blazing with rage. "I should rip your throat out right now!"The rogue's eyes widened in terror, but his voice was hoarse and defiant. "Go ahead..." He rasped, his voice barely audible. "It won't stop them, doing this will only spite them — don't you think?"Kenziel's grip tightened even further, his knuckles turning white
