Gone In The Moonlight Novels & Stories

My hands were shaking. “What was that?” I whispered. Kai didn’t answer for a moment. Then: “Your wolf heard the moon,” he said quietly. “And Riven heard her.” POV: Rowan Ash was pacing. She moved. We go. “No,” I muttered into the darkness. “We are absolutely not going anywhere near that house at midnight.” She called. “She did NOT call,” I snapped. Ash snorted. Her wolf answered. Riven answered back. We should be there.

When the light meets shadow, dusk always follows. And somewhere above, as Emry and Braxton turned to face their cheering pack, a single moonlily on the altar darkened, its petals curling inward like a dying star.

"I'm still talking to you…" Moon was startled as he looked back to witness Doll gripping his right hand, as if not wanting him to go. He smiled awkwardly and decided to remove Doll's grip, let go of it, and spoke clearly to her, "You completed the night, Doll." Letting go of him because she knew she should, Doll watched as Moon went out of the canopy and went inside the gymnasium again. He walked carelessly as if running out of time, as he sped up his pace to manage to be upstairs within the fastest time he could.

Leena and I giggled. “All right, do you promise that?” We nodded at what mama said and she continued the story. “Moon noticed Sun’s light disappearance and replaced it with his glow when it was time for them to meet. Moon knew that Sun had an admiration for him and so did he for Sun. Even against his will, Moon forced himself to say what was on his mind. Moon said, “Go and be happy. Our fates are already decided. You give illumination in the day and my glow was cast at night. So, we can never be, Sun. Please, do not ever abandon your light for the sake of my darkness... but you will be forever in my heart. And always remember that I only belonged to you.”

At least, he was merciful in that regard. Rather than stare at the silhouette of her best friend out there in the darkness alone, Nya turned her attention to the moon. The light was just missing Gavin now, but it would move momentarily, and he’d be bathed in the soft, warm glow of the Dragon Moon, and then, a shadow would pass across the orb, interrupting the beams, and the dragon would swoop out of the sky, his sharp talons sinking into Gavin’s flesh before the dragon plucked him away, flying up into the night sky with him and likely devouring him before he even reached his lair somewhere on the top of Scale Mountain to the west.

A way for my pack to show off their female population. My eyes scanned the crowd but neither really saw through the mass of bodies nor heard far due to the music blaring from the speakers. The fairy lights covering the pillars and the railings were eye-catching but what stood at the spotlight was the moon. I might have forgotten it was a full moon night today. How magnificent it felt, to be under the moonlight that seeped through the clouds, falling on us from time to time. A male gestured me over, and despite my nerves, I approached him with a curtsy when I sensed the power coming from him. He smelt of gamma blood, a third in command or the warrior wolf.

“Silent Night, moonlight night. Keep yourself out of sight We’ll be safe from the wrath of the moon if we hide and don’t come out too soon Sleep in safety and darkness Rest where the goddess can’t find us. Moonlight Night, werewolf night. Hunker down, hide from light Werewolves are looking for us We must stay in or they’ll find us. Stay in the dark still and quiet.”

She said, batting her eyelashes at my parents. “That’s very nice of you. Sure!” Mom said, looking at Dad, who nodded at the same time. “Oh, I’ll only come if Izobel will come,” Amber said, pouting and fluttering her eyelashes to me. I gawked at her. ‘Come on, Amber! Tomorrow’s full moon. It might be my time to shine! Hello? A little consideration, please!’ “Of course! Um... Izobel should come, too.” She said, hearing her sigh.

We immersed ourselves in the beauty of the moonlit night, feeling the lunar magic course through our veins ********* As the full moon's shimmering light faded, and the night drew to a close, the members of the Moonlight pack slowly made their way back to their homes, their thoughts filled with the strange omen that had unsettled them. But as they dispersed, something darker began to take root in their hearts - whispers of suspicion and fear, fueled by the uncertainty of the night's events.

I hope the moon Goddess will hear our prayers, and protect my beloved Leona. It was almost midnight when everyone retired. Before they went to bed, they gathered their weapons and soak it under the moonlight. In the morning we will take it and head on to the Silver Dawn pack. “Your happy,” Anna teases, while I get dress. “The moonlight shower was incredible. Yes, I am extremely happy. I couldn’t imagine that ritual exist. It was life changing.” “That’s good. By the way, good luck for tomorrow. I hope whatever you decided, to break your curse or not, would give your peace of mind.”
