Blood and Moon 27 A Cruel Plan
Desiree Walking back home, I knew my life would never be the same again. There was no way the moons were going to listen to me, and they would feel I abandoned them in their time of need. I wished they would listen, because the vision that saw was gruesome, and I prayed that it wouldn't come to pass. I got to the packhouse two hours later, about three in the morning. I entered my apartment and found Adam curled on the bed. I was amazed that he would be there since I wasn't around. I thought he would sleep in his apartment instead. I took off my clothes and curled into the bed next to him. He came close and wrapped his hands around me. "You couldn't stay away from me too long," he whispered in my ears with his husky sleep voice, and I smiled. How the hell could they expect me to give him up? I hugged his hands to my chest and relaxed into his embrace. All my troubles were far away, and sleep came quickly. I woke up the next day in Adams's arms. He was still sleeping, so I gently got
Blood and Moon 28 End Of A Friendship
Desiree Tim's words kept me up all night. I couldn't tell Adam because it could get all of them killed, nor could I be still and wait. Ashria had instructed me to wait until night so she could get a vision from the moon to see how the event could play out. I was beginning to understand a lot about my powers. It worked only with the moon, even though Ashria told me we will eventually draw strength from the sun, but for now, it was affected by the moon only, and that was why Ashria said she could not wage war. It wasn't because she did not sympathise with them. Apart from it not being a part of our mandate, she simply did not have the strength yet. It was something we would have to build gradually. Adam knew I was restless, but I played it off. He slept early because he was exhausted from the rigorous training he went through the entire day. I got off the bed and went to the window to stare at the night. I could see a glimpse of the moon, but it wasn't as visible as it should have been
Blood and Moon 29 An Attack
Adam My father called me to his chamber after practice, and I reluctantly went to see him. As always, Beta Green was there when I arrived, and I started seeing him as a permanent fixture in my father's chambers. To my surprise, another person was there, someone I never expected. I saw Margret getting dressed with her hair tousled, and I did not need to guess what she was doing in my father's chamber. I guess I wasn't the only one that had the hots for moons. I looked at my father, surprised because I had never seen him with any woman before. After my mother died, he shut down completely. As much as he claims to hate moons, he must have some feelings for Margret to sleep with her. Too bad she didn't feel the same way. She averted my gaze, and I didn't say a word to her. She had taken herself off Desiree's service list. I did not know why and Desiree was yet to tell me, but I hoped it had nothing to do with my father. My father spanked her butt on the way out, and his eyes were filled w
Blood and Moon 30 Implicated
Desiree I couldn't believe what had just happened. Adam shook me to respond, but I couldn't respond out of fear. The wolf Adam killed was Fred, Janet's older brother. I was in shock because I didn't expect them to go through with their stupid plan. I grew up with them. It was heartbreaking that they had wasted their lives the way they did. Adam shook me, and I noticed the tears in his eyes. I felt his fear and knew what he was thinking, but how could I tell him what I knew without implicating everyone? "Please, Desiree, tell me what you know about this," he pleaded, "I will protect you," he said, and I shook my head. "I am not a part of this," I said, shaking my head, and I knew I had to calm down to tell him what happened. "After the Moon Embracing Party, they asked me to join the uprising, and I refused. That was why aunt Margret removed herself from my service list. Janet refused to serve me, but I had her taken off the service list when Tim said he overheard they were planning
Blood and Moon 31 Lies And Deceit
Desiree I told Adam everything that transpired at the Moon embracing ceremony after the party, but I did not tell him about my wolf being divine. I knew Kendra would use it, and Ashria knew how. So it was best we withheld the information to make the revelation more dramatic, but I told him I had a brown wolf just in case. Ashria assured me the information would be relevant. Adam left my apartment to interrogate the prisoners and investigate the event. I sat alone in my apartment, and I didn't wish Kendra and her cohorts well. It was a very low move to try to implicate me. I warned them, and they didn't listen. I sat on my loveseat, knowing exactly how the investigation would play out. Stupid wolves. Adam I reached the cells and found my father there. This was very personal to him because they had almost succeeded. Beta Green was also there, and I noticed he was a bit surprised. "Your majesty," he said, "where is the Dawson bitch. Their leader said she put them up to this," he asked
Blood and Moon 32 Brown Wolf
Adam Desiree was brought to the chamber in chains. Beta Green did not give her any dignity at all. He must have pulled her from the shower, because her hair was wet, and a towel was tied around her body to cover her nakedness. It also seemed as if he had beaten her. I lunged at him, and my father held me. "Was that necessary!" I yelled in anger. "I swear I would beat you up for this," I promised Green, and my father stopped me. "She is a traitor and should be treated as one." Green protested to justify his actions. But I knew the real reason he did this. It was because of Lola. He had been itching to deal with Desiree for his daughter's sake, and my father had given him a chance. "What happened to innocent until proven guilty!" I asked my father. Kristoff was coming out, and he was ready to kill. "Adam, calm down!" my father yelled with his alpha authority, and it didn't work. I began to growl. I was going mad. My father looked at me surprised and looked at Desiree, and his eye
Blood and Moon 33 A Purpose
Desiree Adam and I returned to my apartment. He wanted us to go to his apartment while they fixed my damaged doors, but I told him I would rather stay in mine because of his father's laws. Ashria had let me know it wasn't time to move yet, and as things were, I needed to trust my wolf because she knew things that even I could not explain. "Your wolf is beautiful," Adam finally said after we had our baths and settled on the bed. I needed the sweet words because I was heartbroken and stressed out. I had known the Lawsons all my life, and to think the king would wipe them off the surface of the world the next day scared and shook me. "Adam," I finally spoke up, "Please do not allow your father to kill Janet. She is the last of that bloodline. A lot of wolf families have been wiped out, please." I pleaded with him. Adam sighed and looked at me. He drew me close and kissed me passionately. "I would have lost you tonight. It was either Kendra would get you killed, or my father would ki
Blood and Moon 34 Gloom
Desiree. After breakfast, Adam excused me. The main door had been replaced, so I had some privacy. Someone knocked, and I asked the person to come in. There were no enforcers at my door because of the events that had transpired. I was shocked when Margret entered my room. I had stopped calling her Aunty because she had shown me I wasn't her family. The illusion needed to stop. She didn't support me when I needed her to, and I had to fend for myself. "How may I help you?" I asked her, and she had tears in her eyes. "Desiree, please, they are going to kill over a hundred moons today. You have the power to liberate us," she cried, went on her knees, and I shook my head. "I did my best, Margret, " I said, and she looked at me because, for the first time, I didn't call her aunty. "Yes, I did my best," I continued. "I warned all of you that this will end this way. I told you that I cannot face the king and, that we were better off keeping our heads down to buy time. I offered to clear

Blood and Moon 84 What Next?
Desiree "You are a traitor, Micheal!" I said to the gamma, and he bowed his head in shame. "Your silence would have cost us our country and our peace. It would have caused war, and innocent people would have died. You do not have the right to bear your old title," I said, and he kept his head down. "This is my judgement," Adam said, and Lola and Lana looked at him with fear. They looked in my eyes, pleading with me to intervene. For some strange reason, they rather I judged them than Adam, and I was about to find out why. "The punishment for treason is beheading. Many moons were beheaded with the guillotine. It is only fair Lana and Lola are treated the same. As for Gamma Micheal, I will cast you out. You will be packless and Clanless," Adam said, and immediately the three of them began to beg. Donovan approached Adam and knelt to beg for his father. "Please, he is all I have left. Please," he pleaded, but Adam would not budge. Kristoff wanted them dead. I knew why. Their actions
Blood and Moon 83 Hearing
Desiree "You know why you are here?" I asked Lana loudly for all to hear, and she looked up at me with the most respect her proud ego could manage. "Because we disrespected you and called you a whore," she said, trying to make me look petty. I smiled at her and tried to speak, but Adam placed his palm on my hand to stop me. I looked and him, confused, and he smiled at me, so I relaxed and let him take over. "You have been punished for that already. You are here for two things. Lola, You are here to stand trial for poisoning my food with silver," He said, and everyone gasped, even me. I remembered the incident as if it were yesterday. I was vulnerable, and the conniving bitch had beat me and handed me to the enforcers. I would have died if Adam did not pull through. Adam had promised me to catch the culprit, but after a long time had passed and nothing happened, I thought he was not successful and had decided to let it go. I did not expect this. He was a man of his word. "Alpha,
Blood and Moon 82 After the Battle
Desiree. Adam held me in the shower and wept. "I am sorry, Desiree," he said. I knew Adam could remember what happened. I tried to ease his pain, but he was hard on himself. "I wanted to kill you and our baby," he accused himself, "I was hungry for blood and magic, and I couldn't control it," he said, and I held him. I pulled him out of the shower. Although he was Alpha, he was allowed to be vulnerable in my arms. So I dried his body and mine, led him to the bed and held him the best way I could while he wept. I knew I couldn't stop him from blaming himself, so I just held him. "You did what you had to do to save us, Adam. Don't blame yourself. Blame that witch, Maria, for trying to destroy our utopia." I told him, and he did not let up. "I wanted your blood, Desiree, and your magic," he argued, and I squeezed him tighter. "You have to let it go. I am here, and I am still pregnant. We needed Haimon at that moment, and you came through for us. Please let it go, Adam." I said, and
Blood and Moon 81 Strength of the bond
Desiree I felt the pull. Something was pulling at my life force and magic. It was taking the magic I had managed to store up. "What is happening?" I asked Ashria. "Kristoff is draining us. He is bloodthirsty now. We might have to kill him if we must survive this," Ashria said, struggling with the pull. "You are killing me, Adam!" I yelled at him, but he was fixated on me and advanced toward me. I saw a dark smoke circle Maria's firewall. "That is Haimon's magic. He is making sure she does not escape," Ashria tried to tell me, and Kristoff advanced toward us. "Please, Adam. I do not want to fight you!' I pleaded with him, but he wouldn't listen. He was drooling and growling. He did not care, he felt nothing, and I knew it because his mark burned. "I am your mate!" I told him. "We have no mate and no love but for blood and magic, and yours feels delicious!" he replied, and my eyes widened. I sent sun magic his way, and he dodged it. I was exhausted, but I had to fight to get away
Blood and Moon 80 Son Of Haimon
Adam The blood warriors aimed and fired at the witches. They got two out of three eventually. As soon as they got the last one and we thought it was only Maria that remained, a multitude of witches arrived, trying to get into our country, so Kyle and the others had to face them while I tried to figure out how to save my mate. I prayed to the moon goddess for help because I knew I would not have the will to fight if I lost my mate and unborn child. It would be too much of a loss to bear. I had never felt so useless in my life. They were up there, and I couldn't get to them. I had no magic to fight with. "Use one of the dead witch's blood," Kristoff said, making a strange suggestion, and I did not know what he was thinking, but I went for it. The witch I was attracted to was not dead but was on her way. The moment my wolf touched her, I felt her magic and blood drain into me, and I suddenly felt like I did when I pulled on Desiree's magic, only that this was my magic. I felt the life
Blood and Moon 79 Ingrates
AdamI felt magic coursing through my veins, but it was strange, it was dark, and it wasn't the same as the one I usually tapped from Desiree. Kyle and some warriors had armed themselves with weapons, and they did not shift. To my surprise, the weapons were working well without the sun. I should have listened to Desiree and my father and not let the witches in. even though some of them were fighting on our side, a majority of them were against us. This could have been avoided. Raymond had warned us, but we didn't listen. I was too busy to look into it. Mariah was nowhere to be found. Desiree had ripped Zach's head off and was killing the treacherous witches, but I couldn't help but fear the danger it would pose. Desiree was exhausted from powering those weapons. I knew she wouldn't last on this battlefield, and somehow I felt this was just the preliminaries. We were almost through killing all the treacherous witches, but deep down I knew this was just the beginning. I felt something d
Blood and Moon 78 Reality of the Vision
Desiree. I didn't want to do much that day either. Spending time with Adam was rare, lately. So I opted to power the weapons in the moon dungeon. It wasn't going to take time since I could power them at once. "So, where are we going?"Adam asked me, and I smiled. "I asked some wolves to hide unpowered weapons in the moon dungeon," I told him, and he frowned at me. "Why?" he asked. "So I could power them with mixed celestial magic. These weapons would work both day and night and would be powered by both the sun and moon. But they might not work during an eclipse or blood moon, but will function well if the sun or moon is covered by ash," I said quickly, and he smiled at me. "I guess you have been very busy, Luna," he said, and I nodded. I did not trust the witches, and I didn't want to be caught off guard. We hurried, and Adam waited for me outside the big room in the dungeon that I had turned into a storage. The weapons were small compared to the ones I powered initially. They wer
Blood and Moon 77 Moments
Desiree I waited for Adam to return, so I could tell him what I had learned. I wasn't comfortable letting them go because of the vision I had. I figured Adam would release the Greens eventually. He had humoured me for four days already, and I couldn't keep them locked up because they called me a whore, even though the consequences would have been worse for a moon when Dean was in charge. As much as I wanted to visit the same level of unkindness on them, I knew Adam's law did not allow it, but treason was something else. We just had to wait and see. Adam returned very tired in the night. He was yet to make the decree on every wolf training for battle, and he was yet to announce the pregnancy. He would be the first blood to be expecting a child in almost ten years. It was a huge blessing, and it gave hope. I found out that the king had deliberately isolated him for that purpose, and bloods had kept their children out of the ash for that purpose. The only reason we were lucky was that t
Blood and Moon 76 Discoveries
Desiree Joleen and her friends were very diligent at the task I had given them. Three days had passed since then, and I had been studying a lot, trying to master the magic mixing techniques. I wanted to use the mixed magic to power the stocked weapons, so I trained hard and studied hard. Most of the time, I would return to the apartment exhausted and fall asleep, never knowing when Adam was around. We tried to see each other in the morning, and he had begged me to consider freeing the Greens, but I refused. I wanted them in that cell for now. They needed to be tamed, something Alfred was unable to do. By now, the entire clan had known that they had been locked up, and their connections to the king could not help them. I wanted them to be scapegoats. While reading the books that describe Ashria's abilities and magic, I happened upon a shocking write-up. It was an old sheet of parchment. Someone had written something that scared me. "Ashria, the divine wolf of the moon and sun clan, i
