Sunrise And Moondrop Novels & Stories

"Now." "Prince Levante," Supreme Beta spoke quickly again, "His Majesty asked for three herbs. I already sent people for Moontears and Whisper Moss. But we can't get Sun-drop Lily within three hours!" "Sun-drop Lily?" "Yes. For Miss Serenity. Since you are in the south, maybe you can get it." My eyes narrowed instantly. "Send me the location." "Okay. Please be careful. They only grow in caves or places where no sunlight reaches. You will recognize them as soon as you see them. Their shape is almost like droplets of tears. Luminous and growing in batches. And—"

I smiled at them and tipped them an imaginary hat and they cheered for me. I cruised to a halt and jumped down from the car before grabbing my backpack and retrieving the Moon Phoenix. It glowed through the foil and I turned to look at the sunset, taking how beautiful it was against the skies. It was the reason for this glow. I unwrapped the Moon Phoenix and lifted it into the skies, towards the direction of the sunset and it let out a glow this time, it took the color of the sunset. Fiery orange, yellow, an almost red tinge, pink and purple. It let out its light, casting an ethereal glow around me.

--- With the morning sun now fully risen, its warmth enveloped Roderick and Cynthia, chasing away the last traces of the early chill. They sat together, absorbing the beauty of the valley below, and watched as nature's symphony unfolded around them. Birds flitted from tree to tree, their melodies joining in a chorus of celebration. The valley, bathed in sunlight, revealed its vibrant colors—a tapestry of greens, yellows, and blues that stretched to the horizon. Roderick turned to Cynthia once more, his voice a gentle whisper. "Our love is like this sunrise, my dear. It brings light, warmth, and a sense of wonder to every day."

**The Silent Treatment** Elder Thorne stood beneath the ethereal glow of the moonlight, his heart swelling with both reverence and awe as he faced the moon goddess, a divine figure of unmatched beauty and power. Her silvery robes flowed around her like a celestial waterfall, shimmering gently as the soft breeze rustled the leaves overhead. The moon's radiant light poured forth, illuminating the sacred glade where he had ventured, his spirit filled with hope and purpose, seeking the moon goddess's wisdom to guide Caden, the young alpha, in his quest for a suitable luna.

The clearing lay silent, save for the whisper of the wind through the ancient pines and the soft murmur of a distant stream. The moon, swollen and blood-red, hung low in the sky; its eerie light illuminating every dewdrop, every blade of grass, and every scar on Selene’s skin. For a moment, the world was reduced to this fragile, luminous peace; a stark contrast to the chaos that had roared just hours before.

As the sun continued its slow ascent towards the heavens, Lyra and Drake sealed their vows with a tender kiss, their hearts overflowing with the joy and anticipation of the boundless future that awaited them. The sun had begun to set, casting a warm golden glow over the rolling meadows as it descended towards the horizon. A gentle breeze rustled through the tall grasses, carrying with it the sweet scents of wildflowers in full bloom. The world seemed to be holding its breath, basking in the serenity of twilight.

Then 299,999. Then 299,998. Moons were disappearing. Not fading. Vanishing. Like someone was erasing stars. “They’re not going to the sky,” Dara whispered. “They’re going into the ground.” Under the trees, small lights flickered in the soil. Like seeds. But wrong. Cold. Suri knelt. Dug. Found one. A moon seed. White and pink twisted together. But cracked down the middle. “They’re falling,” she said. “The forest is eating the moons.”

When she comes back from Cold Moon this afternoon she will hopefully be surprised. Once she cleared the gates this morning we started putting everything into place. There is now a banner hanging above the territory entrance that says: Phoenix Storm Loves Luna Mia. We have taken advantage of the human Christmas holiday and the drive from the gates to the pack house is now lined with pine trees with white lights and adorned with rich burgundy and gold trimmings. There is a dome off the back of the packhouse with decorators and caterers bustling around setting up a banquet and dance floor.

The sounds of the party faded into a distant hum, until it felt like we were the only two people in the world. Late that night, the full moon spilled its silver light over us, a blessing from the Goddess herself. My new life had just begun.

Not able to utter a word, the Alpha nodded in response. “Go to bed. Tomorrow is going to be a big day” Alpha ordered before walking back to his room, his regalia flowing after him. “After you, Your Highness” “I am not a child. I can see myself back to my room” The Alpha smirked. “Goodnight your Highness” Elvis bowed and walked to his room. The early morning sun crept in and disrupted the peaceful sleep of the Alpha as well as the Luna of Half Moon Park. More of the Luna as the Alpha was already awake. He could not sleep all through the night as he kept thinking of Alpha Damien and his soon-to-be welcomed child.
