A Luna's Return:Her Return Will Lift The Curse CHAPTER 65
Kailey’s POVFor the past three days, I hadn’t left Aurnen’s side. He had been in and out of consciousness, his small body wracked with the aftereffects of shock. I’d barely eaten or slept, my world revolving around the fragile state of my son. I couldn’t shake the feeling that this place, this pack, wasn’t safe for us.As I sat beside Aurnen, gently stroking his hair, Elyra entered the room. Her concerned eyes softened as she saw the worry etched across my face.“Kailey,” she began, her voice gentle yet firm. “You’ve been through so much, but you’re stronger than this. Aurnen needs you to be strong.”I looked up at her, the fear in my heart almost suffocating. “I can’t do this, Elyra. This place isn’t right for me or my son. I was telling you before that we should leave, and I still believe it. I don’t feel safe here.”Elyra sat beside me, placing a comforting hand on mine. “Kailey, this is your birthright. You’re the rightful Luna of this pack. You shouldn’t have to live in fear. The pa

Kailey’s POVThere was a knock on my door.“Who’s there?” I shouted, my voice laced with agitation.Aurnen was getting better, but every inch of me itched to leave his side and conduct my own investigation. Whoever wanted my son dead wouldn’t get away with it, but being stuck here, waiting for answers, was driving me mad. Every little thing seemed to set me off.The knock came again, louder this time.“Come in!” I shouted.The door opened hesitantly, and a maid stepped inside, her head bowed. “Sorry, Luna, for disturbing you,” she said timidly.“What is it?” I snapped, immediately regretting my tone but too on edge to soften it.“Alpha Ezekiel sent me to inform you,” she began, her voice barely above a whisper, “that you are needed in the courtroom. They’ve found who kidnapped Aurnen.”My heart stopped for a moment before hammering in my chest. “Really?”The maid nodded quickly. “Yes, Luna.”I was on my feet in seconds, practically flying out of the room. My mind raced with possibilities. They

Kailey’s POV I stood before the beaten man, my heart pounding in anger and frustration. He sat slumped in a chair, bruises marring his face, his breathing shallow but steady. His silence infuriated me. No matter what Ezekiel and the others had done, he refused to reveal who had sent him.But I wasn’t done. If he thought he could outlast me, he was wrong.I stepped forward, my voice low but cold as ice. “You think you’re brave, don’t you?”The man didn’t respond. His bloodshot eyes barely flickered in my direction.“Answer her,” Ezekiel barked, his voice echoing through the room.Still, the man said nothing.I folded my arms, circling him slowly. My voice dropped even lower, filled with venom. “Do you know who I am? I’m the mother of the child you tried to harm. The Luna of this pack. And I’m not as patient as Ezekiel.”He gave a weak chuckle, the sound grating on my nerves. “You don’t scare me.”“Oh, you will be scared,” I promised, stopping directly in front of him. “Because I’m not asking a

Kailey’s POVI stormed out of the room, my fists clenched so tightly my nails dug into my palms. My entire body trembled with anger, my chest heaving as I struggled to control my breathing. But the fury within me refused to be contained."Coming here was a mistake," I muttered under my breath. "A huge mistake. I should never have left the woods. I should’ve stayed with Elyra. None of this would’ve happened if I had just listened to my instincts."I paced the dimly lit corridor, my boots slamming against the cold stone floor. The sound echoed around me, matching the chaos in my head."Kailey," a soft, familiar voice called behind me.I ignored it."Kailey, stop," Elyra said, her footsteps growing louder as she approached.I whirled around to face her, my voice sharp and unsteady. "Why should I stop, Elyra? Why? Look at what’s happening! Look at what I’ve done! I walked right into this nightmare, dragging my son into it, and for what?""Kailey, calm down," Elyra said, her voice soothing but fi

Kailey’s POV“I need to go and check on Auren,” I said to Elyra, brushing past her.“Sure,” she replied softly, stepping aside.I didn’t wait for more. My feet carried me down the dim hallway, my thoughts a chaotic mess. Cecilia. Her name burned in my mind like a brand. No one else saw her for what she truly was—a manipulative fraud. She had fooled everyone, weaving her web of lies so tightly that even the sharpest among us couldn’t see through it.But I could. And I would make sure everyone else did too.I clenched my fists as I walked. "I need a way," I muttered to myself. "A way to expose her. To show everyone the truth about who she really is."My steps quickened, my anger fueling my pace. "Auren is the only family I have. The only one I can truly trust. Whoever messes with him messes with me," I hissed under my breath.Reaching his room, I pushed the door open gently. The sight of him made my chest tighten. My little boy, my world, lying in bed, pale and fragile. But his eyes—those bea

Kailey’s POV I stormed into Ezekiel’s office, the door slamming shut behind me. My pulse was pounding, and my fists were already clenched before I even looked at him. He sat behind his polished wooden desk, calm and composed, his piercing eyes watching me with that infuriating sense of control he always carried.“You sent for me, Ezekiel?” I said, my voice sharp and curt.“Yes, Kailey,” he replied, gesturing toward the chair across from him. “Come, sit. Let’s talk.”“I’m not sitting,” I shot back, folding my arms across my chest. “Just tell me what you want, and I’ll be on my way.”He leaned back in his chair, his expression calm but firm. “You don’t have to be like this, Kailey.”“Like what?” I snapped. “Angry? Furious? Defensive? You’re right, Ezekiel, I don’t have to be. But I am. Now tell me what this is about before I lose my patience.”He sighed, standing and walking around his desk to face me. “Kailey, we aren’t fighting. Or do you really think we are?”I let out a bitter laugh. “Oh,

Ezekiel’s POV“Kailey,” I said, trying to keep my voice calm. “You have to understand that this isn’t just about us. It’s about the whole pack.”“I don’t care about the pack right now!” She shot back, narrowing her eyes at me. “My focus is Auren. That should be enough reason for you.”“I get it; I really do.” I took a step forward, hoping to bridge the gap between us. “But we need to show the pack who their future leader is. They need to see that he’s alright, that he’s coming into his role in the right way.”“With everything that happened, how can you not see that parading him around is a bad idea? What if they see him and—”I interrupted her softly, “Kailey, it won't be a parade. It’ll be a celebration. An inauguration, if you will. A way for everyone to feel connected again.”She shook her head, frustration etched on her face. “Ezekiel, this isn’t just about presenting him as the leader. It’s about his well-being. How can you even think of that when Cecilia is still a threat?”“You think

Kailey’s POVMy breath hitched as I felt the warmth radiating from Ezekiel’s body, dangerously close. He was using his charm to sway me—I knew his game—but that didn’t stop my heart from racing or the heat pooling low in my belly. Damn him for knowing exactly how to unravel me.“This isn’t the time or place,” I whispered, my voice betraying the desire I tried to suppress.He chuckled, the sound low and tantalizing. “Oh, but it is, my mate. We’re alone, and I can feel your need just as much as you can feel mine.”My eyes widened as his hand reached out, brushing against my cheek. His touch was electric, sending shivers down my spine. I leaned into it, craving more, betraying the part of me that screamed to resist. His fingers traced my jaw, tilting my face up until our lips met in a kiss that ignited every nerve in my body.The kiss was hungry, demanding. I responded with just as much urgency, our tongues colliding and exploring like we were starved for each other. His hand slid down m

James pov. We have been in the forest for a long time but still there was no sign of Lydia and Auren.However the sun was starting to sink behind the hills when we finally saw it, a large, dark hole in the side of a rocky hill. I slowed my horse and raised my hand, signaling for everyone behind me to stop.“That’s it,” I said, staring at the cave. I didn’t know how I knew. I just... did. My heart was pounding in my chest. My instincts were screaming at me, Lydia was here.Jon rode up beside me. His face was serious, his dark eyes scanning the entrance. “You sure?” he asked quietly.I nodded. “I can feel it. She’s been here. I know it.”Jon didn’t argue, he trusted me, the same way I trusted him.The rest of the warriors waited behind us. Some of them looked nervous. Others just looked tired. We had been searching all day, riding hard through the forest and hills. However now, standing here, I felt a new rush of energy.“She’s close,” I said, tightening my grip on the reins.Jon l

James pov As we rode, I kept thinking about Lydia. I remembered the way she had smiled, the way she had looked at Auren like he was her whole world.I wasn’t going to let anything happen to them. Not on my watch.We had both promised Kailey and Ezekiel that we would protect and keep Auren safe. Though Auren wasn't safe, there was still a chance he was with Lydia and all I needed to do right now was find them and bring them back home to the pack house safe and sound.The tracks led us over hills and through narrow valleys. More than once, we had to stop and search when the trail grew faint.Each time, Jon was right there beside me, helping me pick up the scent again.“They’re moving fast,” Jon said after a while, wiping sweat from his forehead. “But not too fast. They’re slowing down.”I nodded. “They’re tired. Hungry, probably.”“And scared,” Jon added quietly.I didn’t like hearing that. Fear could make people careless. Lydia was smart, but if she was tired enough, scared enough, s

James pov. The whole place have already been cleaned up l, the warriors, guards and maids have done a very good job, the pack wolves too have put heads to getter in helping to make sure the pack house was back to the way it was before Although there was no way it could go back to the way it was in just a day of cleaning, it had improved.The blood on the walls of the pack house has been cleaned, the casualties l, dead bodies had been taken away, the whole place now looked like there was neve a battle at the pack house. However, the only thing that gave away the fact that there had been a battle, was the broken walls of some of the buildings around including the pack house. That was something that had already been looked into and should be in order in three to five days. Right now, I stepped out of the pack house, the cool air hitting my face. The sun was already high, but it didn’t do much to warm the uneasiness sitting heavy in my chest. Oh yes,I had a lot in my chest m, a whol

Cecilia's pov. After the chit chat with Damon, we came to a conclusion that we would carry on with the plan. Right now, The morning air was cold as I pulled the black mask over my face. The mask was part of the plan as we needed our identity hidden from the elders. I could feel the dampness of the forest around us, the ground still wet from last night’s rain. Birds chirped softly in the distance, but their songs did little to settle the nerves crawling up my spine.I looked to my left where Damon adjusted his own mask. His sharp eyes met mine for a moment, and he gave me a small nod. It was time, he didn't voice it oh yeah but I could read his expression.Behind Damon, six of his men moved silently through the trees. They were all dressed in dark clothes, their footsteps quiet on the muddy ground. I followed close behind Damon as we made our way toward the old trail that led into the deeper parts of the forest.“They should be coming around the bend any minute now,” Damon whisp

Cecilia's pov.I felt a soft touch on my hands and I jolted up immediately, my eyes wide open however, I was blinded by the sun momentarily and I couldn't see who or what was standing above me. “Cecilia” a familiar voice called, still touching my shoulder. It was at that time that my vision began to adjust to the sunlight. I narrowed my eyes as I sat up l, my back resting on a tree. “Damon?” I muttered. Damon nodded, slowly helping me back to my feet “that's right”. Immediately I stood on both feet, a sudden pain shit through my head, “ahh!” I yelled,grabbing my head with both hands as I crouched down a little It was at that exact moment that all that transpired the previous night became rushing back to my head.I had been involved in a fight with Lydia and somehow I had tried and fell, and that was the only thing I could remember, I had no idea what happened after that. I looked up at Damon, my brows furrowed “where is Lydia she is with Auren did you see her” Damon sighed, “I

Kailey’s POV, My heart still raced, and fear still crawled up my spine like cold fingers, but I turned around. I had to check,if that was my chance to find the relic, I wasn't going to miss it. And with the newly found courage, I Slowly walked back toward the sound.The trees seemed taller now and thicker, the sky above was hidden behind black leaves, and even the birds were quiet. The only sound was my breathing and the soft rustle of my steps. Then I heard it again.The loud growl. It was louder now, and closer than ever.i gulped,I had already made up my mind, and I was going to stick to my decision.I ducked behind a tree, trying to steady my breath. The growl wasn't just noise anymore, it had a strange weight to it, like it was shaking the ground. This only made it even more scary and horrific than it should have been. However, even with all of this, I refused to retreat, I had only one goal.in my head. To find the relic. I crept forward, slowly, carefully. Every step I too

Kailey’s POV.I left the area where the blood red flowers had been as fast as my legs could carry me, something at the back of my mind tells me that the illusion had to do with the area, had to do with the blood red flowers. The illusion was totally different from the ones I had when I first entered the forest.This was totally real,like I was there, like I was living another life. The whole thing played on my head once again, Ezekiel confessing to Cecilia, telling her how much he loves her, telling her how much of a mistake Auren and I were. I shook the thought to the back of my mind, I wasn't going to let an illusion cloud my judgment. All I needed to do right now was to find the relic. I couldn't help but wonder where it was. I have already lost track of time. I have no idea if Ezekiel was alright. I could help but wonder if he was still sane, if the curse hadn't turned him into a complete monster.I shook my head, noticing the wetness in my eyes. No, I wasn't going to shed te

LYDIA'S POV. Together, Auren and I cleaned the fish with a sharp rock and placed them on sticks to roast over the fire.The smell of cooking fish filled the cave, and Auren’s stomach growled loudly, causing the both of us to laugh rhythmically. When the fish was ready, we let it cool for a moment and then ate. The meat was soft and smoky. It wasn’t a lot, but it was warm, and it helped.After he finished, Auren wiped his mouth with the back of his hand and looked at me.“Lydia… where are we going now?” he asked. His voice was small, uncertain.Auren was the type who was brave and always outspoken, he wanted to be involved in fights and all of that.However I noticed that all the happenings lately had calmed him down, I had no idea if it was fear or maybe this was because his parents were not around.But still I didn't know if this was a positive or negative effect.I looked into his eyes, he was scared. I could tell he misses the pack house, he misses James, he misses his parents.A

Lydia's pov. I opened my eyes slowly and for a moment I didn't move, I just laid on the ground, I didn't move, my eyes and ears open as I listened to my environment The cave was quiet except for the soft dripping of water deep inside. I felt the cool earth beneath me, it was rough but better than the night before, it was better than how cold it had been the night before.The smell of damp stone and leaves filled the air.I raised my head and could see how vines covered the entrance of the cave. I watched as they moved slowly with the morning breeze. We made it here last night. I was grateful to the moon goddess for providing a shelter for Auren and I. I wonder where we would have slept if we hadn't come across the cave. We were already tired at the tone, exhausted and I knew just as I couldn't move further, Auren also couldn't. This little cave had been like a gift from the Moon Goddess. It wasn’t much, but it kept us safe.I turned my head and looked at him. Auren was still asl
