Goodnight Moon Novels & Stories

The two pills were in the shape of a full moon and it reminded him of the story Nathan had once shared when they were still a child. “Hey. Have you ever heard a story called ‘Moon Lovers’?” A child-like voice rang into his ears. Chris turned around before shaking his head innocently, “What is it about? That ‘Moon Lovers’ story?” Five-year-old Nathan grinned before he pulled out a picture book from his bag and flipped open the page, “The story was about the moon and a normal man.” The picture book had a drawing of a full moon shining brightly on the sky with an unnamed man standing directly below the full moon with a smile.

Lunaya. Only twenty more minutes. The alarm will go off in twenty minutes and then it’s time to get up, get dressed and leave Luna Eclipse. I have laid in bed wide awake for just over an hour now, the excitement running through me just won’t let me sleep. Even falling asleep to begin with was difficult. Alyse, as usual, is passed out and curled up under my arm. She needs the sleep, so I won’t move yet and risk waking her.

"Piko dear, you forgot your glasses." Piko instantly took off his glasses and put it on the bedside table. The Matron's attention then turned to the book. "The Scale and The Feather... The wind breezes through the grass with even–" The kids were very determined and passionately listened to the Matron telling them story. Their spirits were marvelous. Unfortunately, the deities above loved them more if they rest, so the Lunar Goddess sent her star sleep spell through her light that was shining through the hole of the trellis window in their room. The stars floated silently above them and made them sleepy. Eventually, they all fell asleep.

"Okay, but it's not night yet." "It doesn't have to be, you seem to be having a hard time anyway." I climb on top the bed and wait for her as she moves from the comfort of the couch to the bed, sitting right by my side she said, "have you ever heard of the 'Lune of the moon', I guess not since I never told you this story. Well the Lune of the Moon is the brother of our Luna. Start sleeping cause it's gonna be a long story." A story of Lune huh. I thought that could be Lune, but Lune was a Star not a god, isn't he?

She was walking away when she heard someone that made her feet froze in the middle of the way. "When the night falls l, And the birds go to sleep. Princess Sophie is awake, What does she need? Does she wants a big horse, Or a shining castle. Does she wanna look pretty, Or is just being naughty. Oh the moon want to know, The sun is already snoring. And the stars twinkle to ask too, but only her daddy is knowing. She wants a hug, And a goodnight kiss. I will rock her to and fro now, And thus she will sleep."

“I will never regret knowing you too.” I want to look at him but I feel shy so I try looking anywhere else and notice that it’s already dark. The moon is shining bright with the dazzling stars. My adoptive mom is right, the sun and moon let each other shine at their time. I move my head and look at Airo who is now looking above too. “They are beautiful, right?” he asks. “Yeah.” A short answer escapes me. As he hears my voice, his eyes meet mine slowly moving his head towards me.

Had to be the picture perfect Alpha and follow his parents wishes to the letter. I don’t give Hazel a chance to answer, I step out into the early afternoon sun and take a deep breath. I love the way our pack smells. The clean scent always energizes me. I head straight to my happy place. The school isn’t in session today, but there are many kids using the courts to play basketball or running on the playground. Copyright ©️ 2026 Miss L Writes and Ember Mantel Productions

Then came bedtime. Reasonable. Peanut already asleep in the nursery. God. Tiny and peaceful. Fair. Meanwhile Lily lay beneath her blankets. Reasonable honestly.

Reasonable. Then Lily spoke. God. "Dada?" Fair. There it was. Reasonable honestly.

Three weeks ago. The night of the blood moon. I ran alone through the high passes, heavy with young—nine moons along, the pup quickening with every step. The trail gave way. I tumbled, striking stone and ice, wedged in a crevice where the cold would finish what gravity began. I sent my call through the spirit-web to the healers. Needed the Alpha's permission to cut the pup from my dying flesh. Ninety-nine summons. Silence. The hundredth time, the bond stirred.

Will I need to rely now on herbs? The morning came quickly as I expected. I slept a wink last night. My mind is too bothered with all the occasions for the past few days that made my body unable to rest. The purloin will take place at midnight after the city has gone to slumber and only those who move amidst the shadow are awake. When noon came, I met with the crew Sudan has provided me with. I expected the least from it; a band of sickly lads small enough to hide from suspicious eyes and blend in the shadows but quick with their feet and so I was not surprised at all when I came to see them. They have a leader, Akar is what they call him, a tad bigger than the lot and a wily one, someone wh
