Moon Guard Forum Novels & Stories

"They run directly beneath the vault. If we bypass the gate and surface in the armory, we can disable the atmospheric scrubbers. Without the silver-laced air, the guards won't be able to hold their shifts. Their control will shatter." "And the Blood Moon vanguard?" Diacina asked. "They're mercenaries," I said, a cold smile touching my lips. "Offer them the gold in the vault, and they’ll turn on Vincent before the first bell tolls." The plan was surgical. It lacked the honor of a duel, the spectacle of a siege, and the chaos of a hunt. It was, simply, a demolition.

I overheard Conrad and Murdock talking about getting a satellite and drones involved, so we will see what happens. It's the night of the full moon, and the moon is already at its highest peak. I'm standing in the Lake with Conrad, Arthur, Liam, and Murdock watching over me from the shoreline. Conrad insisted they watch over me until Malik is dealt with, and he would prefer to defend me than throw up in front of Murdock, as he still can't hold his breath that long. I open my eyes in the Moon Goddess Realm, and she floats over to me and embraces me tightly.

what could possibly go wrong? Moon's blessings, Odessa 🌙✨

And then, a fissure split the ground beneath the council platform. From the center of the chamber, the runes began to glow. A pulse of ancient moonlight rippled outward—and with it, a whisper of something else. A gate. I felt it. Opening. The Moon Gate. “No,” muttered the mage in the vine crown. “It’s too soon. It’s responding to her.” Orla hissed a command, and several council members stood, casting circles of protection around themselves. But they weren’t protecting me. They were defending against the Moon Gate.

“Pearl your father mentioned the old Valdis fortress was now some kind of pilgrim site?” I raised my eyebrows, it was the first I had heard of this. Pearl nodded, her blonde locks tied up high, exposing a scar on the back of her neck. “People are coming from all over for the full moon, now they have the blessing of the Moon Goddess.” “What happens up there?” “Well, it heals you. Under this crazy bright beam of the Moon peope get fixed up. Like brand new baby-soft skin.” What the hell have Elvie and Reu unlocked up there. “Who runs it? Who is in charge?”

“What? Are you joking around? That’s not funny, dude.” “No, I’m not joking,” Cadenced assured her, tired of repeating herself. “A Blood Moon Portal opened last night at the Eidolon Festival, Roar. It sucked up Elliott, Brandon, Alex, Dax, Jamie... and Aaron. So, no I’m not joking. Can you go ahead and let everyone else who’s still there in Shenandoah with you know because apparently that’s not being handled the way I expected.” She thought for sure Hannah would be on top of that. How hard was it to send out a freaking memo to everyone on the team?

I say and receive several chuckles. “My next announcement is related to our pack becoming official. While I was away, I also applied for our new pack to participate in the Tournament of the Moon Goddess this year. The tournament will take place in three months’ time. If you are interested in participating, Carlos and I will be having additional training sessions to get pack members ready to participate.” There is a lot of chatter and quiet discussion at this announcement.

Moon left no doubt in my mind that he's completely turned on by this kickass female. Currently, he's meeting with the house security team. They're all pulling a shift tonight, but only two will monitor the cameras while the other four offer relief for the guards working outside. I know, in minute detail, what Moon's telling his team. He went over everything with me and Gomez. I'm not in the meeting because I have the honor of greeting our guests.

“Alpha douchebag happens to have a lover he’s in love with—well, according to the source—and he thinks she’s a devil out to separate them. Worst part? He doesn’t believe in the moon goddess or any of that jazz. In case you don’t know, the Sinister Smile Pack and the Blood Moon Pack are two of the few packs that don’t come to the MPMAC.” “MPMAC? What’s that?” “Moonlight Pack Mate Awakening Ceremony! Where the heck have you been all this time? Well, that aside, back to what we were talking about—it’s exactly like your situation seven years ago: the moon goddess is giving her a taste of her own medicine.”
