Lower Moon 2 Novels & Stories

"The Guardians are going to try to round up some Strigoi to either bring here or to collect blood from. They left not too long ago. They should be back in a couple hours." She grumbled incoherently as her stomach released a terrifyingly loud growl. My eyes widened and looked at her stomach. "How in the world did your stomach just produce that noise?" I asked astounded. "I told you I'm hungry, and I'm starting to feel it." She said annoyed. "Are you sleepy?" I asked worriedly. "A little. It's starting to become harder to control my wolf. The full moon is tonight. If I don't get blood before the moon rises completely, I won't be able to control the Shift." She said looking up at me. Her eyes w

I called as I reached the truck. “Yes, Alpha,” he remained where I'd left him. I didn't know why I felt the need to say it, but I couldn't help it. “Watch over her.” ______________________ The drive to Littlemoon was reduced from the six hours drive as reported to a four hour drive due to the expertise of our drivers, and quick routes taken, and by the time we arrived at the Littlemoon territory, the moon had reached its apex in the night's sky.

The moon hung low and luminous, casting silver light across the water. The sand felt cool beneath our feet. The world felt reduced to essentials. Ocean. Sky. Us. Then, faintly. Another chime. I exhaled. “Of course.” Gloss smiled knowingly. “Vacation mission?” “Yes.” The voice returned, playful and warm. Mission: Kiss under moonlight. Gloss looked at me, eyes bright. “Well.” “This is unnecessary.” “It is thematic.” “I do not require prompts.” “You did once.” “That was different.” He stepped closer, close enough that moonlight caught the edges of his face.

Luke whispered, more to himself than anyone else, before leading the herd back to their base under the waning moonlight. *** That night, the full moon shone softly, illuminating every corner of Luke's room quietly. The atmosphere in the room was quiet, yet there was a heavy silence in the air. Luke sat on the window ledge, looking out with thoughtful eyes. The moonlight bounced off the wooden floor beneath him, as if reflecting the feelings he held in his heart-a mixture of serenity and emptiness.

I paused. “This also explains why patients are at their worst around the new moon. That is when the body’s rhythm fluctuates the most violently and the disconnect is hardest on the tissue.” I looked out at the room. “Lunar lung syndrome is not an external attack on the body. It is the body losing its connection with the moon entirely.” I turned back to the board and began writing. “The core of Moonlight’s drug development is to use natural medicinal compounds to suppress that disconnection while simultaneously repairing the lung tissue that has already been damaged. Four herbs. Specific ratios.”

Her palms tingled where they touched the soil. High above, the bright sky had shifted almost imperceptibly. A thin veil of cloud began to drift across the sun, softening its glare. As the light dimmed, the air cooled, and there—faint, ghostly—Luna could just make out the pale suggestion of the moon. It hovered low and washed-out, nearly invisible against the bright day, but once she'd seen it, she couldn't unsee it: a fragile crescent, looking down on her.

Questions of how the Alpha can hold an event with what is ongoing have reached my ears. I pick up the glass cup on the table, raising it to toast, speaking in a dialect that only the Blood Moon pack understands, "I understand the current situation, the death of those witches won't be overlooked, but for the moment, I hope that we can all merry tonight and plot tomorrow." They all nod, and even if they look troubled, I can see the glimmer of hope in their eyes as I continue to speak in our tongues, "Our Luna today is not just our Luna but she is my mate," I announce as murmurs erupt in the hall.

Monna asked suprised “Yes baby, out of anger, I went into blue lake and… killed everyone there before setting the entire pack on fire. I was suddenly struck by a strange lightning on my back. I passed out and had two dreams that night. The one about you and the one that the moon goddess spoke to me” “The moon goddess?” She asked “Yes. The lightning was supposed to kill me but you woke me up even in the state you were” Monna was surprised to hear this but it was true. The beaten up girl woke me up.

Midnight Moon has found its Luna and I have a mate. Maybe not quite the way I would like, but that doesn't affect my happiness. I give my friends a glass and toast each. “To a new beginning for Midnight Moon. With a Luna, we are much stronger, invincible”, I say in a fiery Alpha tone. Jace and Cleo nod. The bubbles from our glass rise while we look at each other confidently....
