Nine Moons Novels & Stories

Chosan's POV The fierce wind went along with the thick screams coming from that room where several women gathered around a woman, sweating and panting profusely. Up in the sky, the full moon sat casually. Nine, tiny, fluffy, white clouds cut out from several others, hanging away from the moon; the nine clouds enveloped the full moon. Just nine. That was what I was told. From that very moment, my first cry sprang out, born alone without a brother nor a sister; just like the humans call it.

He reached over slapping her so hard on her back she lurched forward nearly falling off the barstool. "Naaate! Cool it!" Jenna gave him a sharp look. It took all Ulaya could do to keep from falling out on the floor in fits of laughter at how Jenna kept Nate in line. "And about the girl that had four mates. Yes that is a true story Luna. The moon goddess does this because some people require more than one mate to make them happy....and there's absolutely nothing wrong with that. Now I'm gonna switch up gears here Luna an-- Ulaya broke her off.

Another reminder that I was a Luna who knew nothing about her people's culture, The reality of that didn't settle well with me. "It simply mean the first ball of the month. Unlike the humans, our months are classified as moon. The next full moon, meaning the next month. A full moon occurs only once a month and it last for about three to seven days" She explained politely and I nodded thoughtfully, realizing that I just found a tutor. "She will need yours and Alpha permission to host the ball" She added which explains why she sent me this letter instead of an invitation right away. I sighs and handed the letter back to her.

I was not that desperate! Hours passed while I was sleeping, and an intense, hungry growl pulled me out of my sleep. I sat on the bed and looked around. It seemed like it was nighttime but it was still so bright outside, perhaps because of the two moons, which was so interesting to see them on two completely different phases. "What if I am dead? And if I am, is Frankie grieving for me?" He had better be; I was his only closest friend! One was half, while the other one was a quarter moon, but it was so beautiful. Even though Miall did try to explain a few terms to me and the environment, I still had so much to see and learn about this planet. I guess I could always ask Nyleve.

Can I argue with facts? “You have been given three, no. You have four full moons to have your time with these mates and on the fifth full moon, you’ll return to the West with your new mate and whatever follows will proceed. In regular calendar time, that’s 4 months, including the month with a blue moon.” Rapha ordered. Five full moons, huh? It bothered me why I was so…calm. Something inside me still believed that I’ll find my mate. “I’ll think about it.” My voice just died and I felt my skin turn blue.

Aria. I knew all their names. Knew their deaths by heart. The earth beneath my feet began to hum—a low vibration that made teeth ache and bones resonate. It was the sound of reality stretching, of two worlds preparing to touch. Kharo's hand found mine. "The moons," he whispered. The three celestial bodies drew closer in the sky, following paths set down at the universe's creation. For a moment, they touched—three moons aligned perfectly, a cosmic event that should have been impossible but was happening anyway.

I shake my head. "You already know most of that story." Kaden shrugs, looking off into space with furrowed brows. “There's nine of us, and the infamous moon goddess I'd our mother, as you must have heard. First off, there's Kathryna, my twin. Well Kathryna is— intense.” he says, struggling to find the words to describe her. ”No one knows where she is and it's better off that way.” Kaden says with a gloom look in his eyes.

In this case it did but yet again how can he believe in a fairy- tale? Flipping inside he saw amazing sketches, mind blowing pieces that made him question his interest. Why does she have many sketches of the two moons? There are different pieces, the general mate bond, the circle which is extremely rare but what caused his curiosity was the one his never seen before... A triangle? Maybe he did read up on it some time the meaning now means nothing but surly it does because there is only one red moon. There are different versions, styles and colors but the moon was always constant. The more he paged the more he felt himself fall into the moons temptation, strange.

“You see Astrid, I am blessed with an heir to this pack, a gift from the goddess. I have a small favor to ask you,” Great. What is it to me? It's your life, your happiness, why bother discussing it with me? “Yes, Luna. Everything you ask for” I saw her stepping forward before bringing her face close to my ear. “Be my slave for these nine months, like the good girl you are”

‎ ‎She stood beside him. ‎ ‎“I still don’t understand what happened.” ‎ ‎Lucian looked at her carefully. ‎ ‎“Neither do I.” ‎ ‎Lyra stared up at the moon. ‎ ‎“Maybe the Moon Goddess really does like me.” ‎ ‎Lucian smiled faintly. ‎ ‎“Maybe she does.” ‎ ‎Far above them… ‎ ‎The Moon Goddess watched her mate and her chosen king standing together. ‎ ‎And she whispered softly to the night. ‎ ‎“Soon.”
