Casca Eclipse Novels & Stories

It wasn’t something serious but the slight massage was enough to make me feel better. “So what exactly is someone from the Dark Moon pack going to be working with you on that I do not know of?” My eyes were closed already, so I have to open them immediately to get my head wrapped around the question Cassie just asked. “What is that?” Okay, I was not deciphering yet because of the throb in my head and so was forced to loosen the ponytail made on my hair. I then flip the hair to get a few of the tentacles off my sight.

My arousal was gone, and even Lucian was starting to agree that maybe going for another round wouldn’t have been a good idea. What I noticed, however, is that as I walked away further from her, that discomfort in my neck had started to ease. I stretched it out as I walked over to the training grounds at the back of the pack house. “Calla wants to mate,” Lucian muttered. “You mean she wants to have sex.” “No, I mean she wants you to mark her.” “What? That’s crazy!” “Cassie is all for it too. She was practically fluffing at the idea of being luna.”

Since dawn, my team and I had set up a makeshift studio inside the technician van. Just a folding table, a laptop, an encoder, and one large screen displaying a live feed from the infrared camera. Nicky had installed the camera the night before, right in the eastern meadow, the route Celeste had used to sneak in. At exactly 9:00 p.m., I opened the CASSTalk Live app, the massive video platform built by Hugo and now used by millions worldwide. The red “Go Live” button appeared. I typed a short title:

Bastien The Eclipse Festival sprawls before us, a whirlwind of lights and colors so overwhelming I can feel my mate leaning close to me for comfort. It’s not only the size of the event and deafening noise around us unsettling her, it’s also the attention. We’re still in the VIP section, and wherever Selene and I walk people turn to stare, and I can’t help but notice how different things are from the past.

Melissa's POV "The first human Luna?" I spoke out in surprise, my gaze rested at Anabelle who nodded. "Yes Melissa, the first human Luna, this has never happened before in the history of this pack" Anabelle noted as she touched the tip of her hair, her sharp eyes rested on me. "Then it's a curse!" I was really alarmed. "A curse? No way Melissa! See it as a blessing, look at it from the bright side, you are more like a game changer, this is something anyone would wish for" she pointed out with a smile on her face.

Musa trailed off, staring around cautiously. "What?" Mitari asked, glancing around with a raised eyebrow. Then Musa held up his hand to silence her. "Someone is coming, quick let's hide." He pulled her with him. In the process, one of her earrings fell off. Her heels were sinking into the soft ground as they ran to hide behind one of the pillars. "My earring!" Mitari shouted, but Musa’s hand slammed over her mouth, cutting her off. "Did you hear that?" Maxwell asked, pointing his flashlight, with Stella walking beside him, shining her own flashlight.

I was just caught unawares. Celeste started providing security to the wealthy packs. I learned of this when I visited Alpha Adolf of the Oregon Wolf Howlers Pack and tried to enter his territory. Once I and my Beta entered the boundary of the pack's territory, we were thrown into the air as thousands of silver daggers stabbed us as we fell slowly back to earth. One of the daggers had stabbed my right eye. The silver burned through my eye and when I pulled out the dagger, the fluid from my eyeball gushed out. Now, I wear a patch over my right eye and live with horrible scars on my face and body, a constant reminder of Celeste.

I truly wanted to go out with Caspian, but Monique had chosen an odd time to discuss all this, and she seemed quite determined. "You're going on a lunch date with Caspian?" she asked, her forehead creasing with a frown. "Didn't you know today is the eclipse?" She stared into my eyes, her head tilting, and her expression conveyed her frustration with me for forgetting about something we had been preparing for years. "Oh, can we skip this eclipse?" I asked, hoping for a way out, but she shook her head vigorously, looking visibly upset that I even suggested it. "Actually, the thing is that--" I began to explain, but she didn't want to hear any more.

Disperses. My wolf calms. Steps back. I force myself to stand. To face Cassandra. Who's shocked. She didn't expect me to recover. "My win," I say. "You used magic. You're disqualified." Cole confirms it. "Luna Eclipse wins by disqualification. Cassandra Blackwood violated combat rules." The crowd is mixed. Some cheering. Some angry. But it's over. I survived. Proved I could control myself even under curse attack. Proved I'm not the unstable threat they claim.
