Marked by the Moon
My entire existence has led to this moment, the day I finally put an end to this misery, the day I pay tribute to the sacrifices of my loved ones, the day I grant freedom to the human race. All it requires is a simple pull of the trigger. I desired this, worked tirelessly for it, but inexplicably, I find myself unable to complete the task.
"Do it," Bas urged in a soft whisper, a gentle smile playing on his lips. How could he find solace in a moment fraught with tension? His eyes locked onto mine, a silent challenge.
Unable to contain the tears streaming down my face, I felt a flood of emotions. Sensing my hesitation, Bas delicately laid his hand on mine, guiding the gun closer to his chest.
"I love you," he uttered to me.
No, I couldn't endure this any longer. I shook my head, the pain becoming unbearable.
"We do this in 1...2...3..."
****

Chapter: Chapter 125Becca's POV"Careful..." Bas whispered, guiding me with gentle hands on my shoulders. He had insisted on blindfolding me for a surprise, and the anticipation was driving me wild."Are we not there yet?" I asked, a hint of impatience in my voice."Patience, love."Finally, we stopped. Bas slowly untied the blindfold. I blinked as my eyes adjusted to the light, and then widened in astonishment as I took in the scene before me. We were standing in front of a beautiful house, nestled beside a picturesque farm. The lush countryside stretched out in every direction, vibrant and serene."Bas..." I breathed, unable to find the words.He wrapped his arms around me from behind, his breath warm against my ear. "You always wanted to have a family in the countryside, so let's start our family together here."My eyes filled with tears, and I tried hard to keep them from falling. Despite the painful fate that awaited us, I had asked Bas for just one month—to live as if everything was perfect, to be

Chapter: Chapter 124Becca's POV"Wh...what did you just say?" My voice trembled, shock and disbelief coursing through me as I tried to process what Naomi had just revealed."Becks, I'm so sorry. I thought he told you," she said, her voice filled with regret and concern. Her eyes searched mine, desperately hoping for some sign of understanding.When I decided to come over and share the good news with Naomi, I never imagined it would end in such a heartbreaking revelation. Bas had the oak tree, and he didn’t tell me."Becca," Naomi called softly, her hands gently placed over mine. Her touch was warm, but her eyes were clouded with worry.I forced a smile, trying to suppress the pain that threatened to overwhelm me. "It's fine. I'm sure he was going to tell me... eventually."Naomi still looked at me, her eyes brimming with concern. "He just needed it to stop Darius. He... never said anything about using it on... himself."My heart skipped a beat at the thought. No, I would never let him do that.I smiled a

Chapter: Chapter 123Becca's POVI stared at the lingerie on my body. I had just bought, a smile spreading across my face as I imagined Bas’s reaction when he saw me in it. He's going to be so shocked, I thought, a giggle escaping my lips at the idea of his expression.Just then, the doorbell rang, and I rushed downstairs, butterflies fluttering in my stomach as I struck a sexy pose. "Come in," I called, my voice filled with anticipation.The door opened, and as soon as Bas walked in, I let my robe fall, revealing the black lace lingerie I had picked out just for him."Be... wow," he stammered, his eyes widening as he took in the sight of me. His gaze darkened with desire, his lips parting slightly."I thought I..." My words trailed off, and my eyes widened in horror as I saw my mom and Lola standing there behind him. "Mom!" I yelped, scrambling to pick up my robe and cover myself, my face bright red with embarrassment.My mom's eyes were wide with surprise, her mouth slightly open as she tried to process

Chapter: Chapter 122Bas POVDarius glared at me, his eyes filled with rage as he struggled to get up. The poison had spread, rendering him completely weak, almost human. "The poison won't kill you," I said, my voice steady. "It's just going to make you forever weak. This is your punishment for all the sins you've committed."I turned to leave but stopped in my tracks. No matter how monstrous he was, he was still my father, and I couldn't bring myself to kill him. "Get out of here and never come back. I'll tell the pack I flung your body deep in the sea."This was my last act of kindness, not for the defeated Alpha, but for my father.Suddenly, Darius burst into laughter, the sound echoing through the forest. I turned to look at him. "Oh, as always, you're so weak, boy," he said, managing to get up and resting against a tree. "Do you really think I'll just remain quiet and watch as you jeopardize everything I've worked for? I'll come for you."I turned away, not wanting to see him in this state. He was al

Chapter: Chapter 18Sloane’s POVThe moment we stepped inside, I felt like I had just walked into a royal palace.Gold accents shimmered from every corner of the restaurant, reflecting off towering mirrors and the biggest crystal chandelier I had ever seen. The black and white checkered floors gleamed like someone had polished each tile by hand, and the velvet chairs looked like something out of a vintage movie, elegant, dramatic, expensive.My heels clicked softly as I followed behind Nikolai. I wasn’t even surprised when the hostess greeted him like he owned the place and led us to a private table near the window.He pulled out my chair for me, and I blinked. “Oh. Thanks.”He just gave a small nod before sitting across from me, his black suit hugging him like it had been tailored this morning.I tried not to stare.Tried.The waiter came by with a menu and poured us each a glass of water before disappearing again. I flipped mine open and instantly choked on my own air.What the hell?I mean, I’ve been

Chapter: Chapter 17Sloane's POVI didn’t even realize we’d landed in Paris.Why?Because my stupid brain kept replaying the kiss.Over and over again.Something had to be wrong with me. My skin wouldn’t stop tingling, my lips still felt warm, and…ugh…I couldn’t even count how many sneaky glances I’d thrown at Nikolai’s mouth on the flight. Like a crazy person. Like some hormone-driven teenager.What was wrong with me?You know what I blame Reed. Entirely. Thanks to that cheating asshole, I hadn’t been touched, like, really touched, in nearly a year. Reed was always “busy.” Always flying out or working late. And I had buried myself in work to ignore the ache.But now?Now it felt like all that pent-up frustration had come rushing back with a vengeance… and decided to target Nikolai.Great. Freaking amazing.“Sloane,” he said, his deep voice pulling me out of my spiraling thoughts.My gaze shot to his lips…traitor!!...then quickly darted back to his eyes.“Oh! Um… sorry. I was just… distracted.”He smiled

Chapter: Chapter 16Sloane’s POV“Wait…” I blinked, sitting straighter. “Did you just say Paris?”Nikolai, sitting across from me in that infuriatingly calm way of his, glanced at his watch like we were discussing the weather and not an international flight. “We leave in forty minutes.”I blinked again. “I…what?! Are you serious?”He nodded once, unbothered. “I made dinner reservations at Le Monarque Noir. Very public. High-profile. Paparazzi will be swarming the place. If we’re going to sell this whole marriage thing, we need evidence, photos, headlines, the works.”I gawked at him like he’d lost his billionaire brain. “But… I haven’t even packed!”My hands flew to my hair in panic. “My skincare. My makeup. My shoes! I can’t just show up to Paris looking like I rolled out of a car nap!”“You won’t need to pack,” he said smoothly, resting one arm on the armrest. “A dress is being delivered once we land. From Maison Clarisse de Vienne.”I froze. “Wait…the Maison Clarisse de Vienne? The fashion house that

Chapter: Chapter 15Nikolai’s POVI watched her lift the glass to her lips, her fingers trembling just slightly. The water hit the table with a soft thud."Let’s do it," she said.My eyes narrowed. “Are you sure?”Her voice was steady, but I could hear the nerves in the way she breathed. “Yes. Positive. That’s… if the offer is still available.”She tucked a strand of hair behind her ear, and for a second, I forgot how to function. God, she had no idea what she did to me.I gave a small nod. Even if she took a month or, hell, a whole year, the offer would still be waiting. For her, it always would.She let out a breath, her shoulders falling with a soft sigh. “So we’re doing this.”“Yeah,” I said, voice low.“Great,” she said, straightening up. “But we should have some ground rules.”I leaned back slightly in my chair, a teasing smile tugging at my lips. “Of course. Let’s hear what you’ve got.”She raised one finger. “First, we do it for one year. I was thinking six months, but that might look suspicious,

Chapter: Chapter 14Sloane“What the actual hell?!” Her voice echoed down the hallway, heels stamping on the floor as she stormed into my office. I didn’t have to look up to see who it was; her expensive perfume already gave it away.“Hey Z,” I said casually, still scrolling on my iPad.“Uh-uh, do not, hey me, Sloane,” she snapped. Her oversized dark shades blocked her eyes, but I could still feel the dagger she was throwing at me.I sighed, getting up.“How could you? I thought I was your best friend. But nooo,” she flailed dramatically, “I had to find out on the freaking internet,” she emphasized the word like it had personally betrayed her. “That my best friend’s bodyguard is actually a billionaire. And not annnyy billionaire but freaking Nikolai Dorne”Now beside her, I led her to the couch. She didn’t resist, of course; she lived for dramatic entrances. I placed my hand on her shoulder as she lowered onto the couch, giving her light massages. “I know what you’re doing, and it's ohhh,” she groaned, “

Chapter: Chapter 13Nikolai’s POVSloane paced the grand lounge of the Drone Empire like a storm on legs. Her heels clicked against the marble floor, her fingers tugging at her lower lip, Something she always did when she was deep in thought. Something I’d memorized.And she was still wearing that green gown.The slit swayed with each step, flashing smooth, endless legs that were doing an excellent job distracting the hell out of me.Focus, Nikolai.This isn’t the time to think about how goddamn beautiful she looks when she’s mad.“Sloane,” I said quietly.She turned.Wide eyes.Sharp voice.“Wait, so let me get this straight…”Her hand flew out dramatically.“You’re Nikolai? The Nikolai? As in, president of Drone Lux Holdings?!”I gave her a small nod. “Yes.”She let out a short, breathless laugh. “Wow.”Just one word.But the way she said it, it carried a thousand emotions. Shock. Anger. Betrayal. Confusion.“Look, I’m sorry,” I started, stepping closer, “I know it’s a lot.”Her head whipped toward me.

Chapter: Chapter 126Gwen’s POVThe wind had settled. The crowd dispersed, and all that remained was the soft hum of peace settling back into the world we nearly lost.That’s when she walked toward me, her hair the color of spring blossoms. The pink-haired woman from the woods. The same lady who gave me the sun necklace that revealed everything… The one who knew too much.She bowed her head slightly. “Congratulations, Luna.”I blinked, lips curling in a cautious smile. “Thanks… but seriously, who are you?”She chuckled softly, a sound like wind chimes in moonlight. “I’m a Seer. And a messenger.”I raised a brow. “Messenger from who?”She stepped closer, lowering her voice like it was something sacred. “I once met a very good friend of yours. A warrior. Fierce, stubborn, and… extremely persistent.”My breath caught. “Rya?”“She begged me to preserve him,” the seer continued. “To keep him tethered to this world. I used an ancient binding spell, one I was forbidden to ever cast again. But for her, and for yo

Chapter: Chapter 125Gwen’s POVCould this be a dream?Was he really standing here… breathing… blinking… looking at me?My heart nearly stopped as my eyes drank in every inch of him, tousled dark hair matted with rain and dirt, sharp jaw clenched, lips parted like he was trying to speak but couldn’t. But it was his eyes…those eyes…that shattered me.Blue. Bright. Burning. The kind of blue that haunted my dreams. The kind of blue that once made me feel safe. My hand trembled violently as I reached out, needing to touch him, needing to know that this wasn’t my grief playing cruel tricks on me again.My fingers brushed his cheek.Warm. Solid. Real.“R…Reagan,” I breathed, voice barely louder than a gasp.And then I broke.I threw my arms around him, sobbing uncontrollably into his chest, clutching at him like if I let go, he’d disappear again.“Y-you’re alive,” I cried. “You’re alive.”His arms wrapped around me just as tightly. He smelled like smoke and rain. Like earth and blood and something ancient.“I’

Chapter: Chapter 124Gwen’s POVI stepped into the woods, my gown whispering around my ankles as the cool breeze kissed my skin. The path was lined with flickering candles, casting soft glows that danced across the trees.Everywhere I looked, there were faces. Crescent wolves. Moon Bloods. Shadow Fangs. All standing together—packs that once shed blood now joined in peace for one reason.For me…For Hayden.He stood ahead beneath a towering arch of cream roses and dusk-colored drapes, his smile easy and charming. My heart beat steady, the bouquet trembling slightly in my grip as I walked down the aisle. Each step echoed like a countdown.When I reached him, the ceremony began. The vows were spoken. The ancient chants repeated. And the moment the elder crowned me with the Luna circlet, the crowd erupted—howls slicing through the silence, carrying into the trees.Hayden took my hand. I smiled.But inside, something knotted deep in my chest.The celebration bloomed around us—laughter, music, clinking glasses.

Chapter: Chapter 123Gwen’s POVThe Crescent Pack house was quiet.Too quiet.The usual warmth had dimmed into something heavy and cold. Every wall, every hallway echoed with grief. Wolves moved around with hushed steps, black clothes, and solemn expressions. The scent of mourning herbs and flickering candles filled the air.I stood beside my mother, our hands locked tightly together as if letting go might break us both.The East Pack delegation arrived late in the afternoon, three wolves dressed in deep navy robes with the crest of their pack stitched across their shoulders. They bowed their heads as they approached us."We are so sorry for your loss," the tallest one said, his voice low and respectful."Such a bright young girl... It’s a shame she consumed so much dark magic that led to her… death."Dark magic.It didn’t sit right in my chest. Like something sour I couldn’t swallow.My mother gave a weak smile, dabbing under her eyes with her handkerchief. “Please… do send my appreciation to your Alpha.

Chapter: Chapter 122Shayla’s POVI froze the second I stepped into the clearing.The place looked like something out of a dream.A wooden deck surrounded by soft grass, glowing candlelight lining a tiny stream like stars had fallen to the earth. String lights hung above a round table dressed in white linen, with fancy glasses, flowers, everything glowing warm and golden in the night.It was… perfect.Then he stepped out of the shadows.Hayden.“I was so stupid,” he said.I blinked, stunned. “Hayden…” My voice cracked, the words catching in my throat. “This is… beautiful.”He walked toward me, eyes soft, lips tugging into a gentle smile. Then he took my hand and brought it to his lips, kissing it like I was the only woman in the world.“I’m sorry,” he said softly. “I got distracted. I said some foolish things I never should’ve. Shayla… you’re the woman for me. My love. My Luna.”My heart practically burst.I smiled, wide and smug. I knew it. I always knew he’d come back to me.I leaned in and kissed him,

My jaw was so tight I could feel a headache forming, and my nails were digging half-moon dents into my palms.Hayden thought he could betray me?After everything I’d done, everything I sacrificed, everything I let go of, he thought he could just toss me aside like garbage?No.Not happening.If Hayden was going down, he was going down with me. I’d drag him by his perfect lying hair into hell myself. I rounded the corner, and froze.Of course.Of course I had to bump into the one person I absolutely did not want to run into.Gwen.Her bright smile lit up the hallway, warm and soft like she was the heroine in some sweet romance novel.
