Eventual Lunaย ย ย Chapter 16
Ryanโs POVI was seated on my ornate sofa, my hands drumming against my office desk. I was envisioning all the possible ways, this midnights raid could go. It could go well, we catch them off guard and kill everyone of them and also kill the man responsible for the deaths of my parent.Or it could go sideways, where outplayed and we're now the victims. Either way, we were going and there was no going back now. Just then, I heard a loud knock on my door, snapping me out of my thoughts. โCome in.โ I yelled. Trevor stepped in and stood just by the door. โAlpha Ryan, all the warriors are prep and ready. And the goodwill feast is ready as well.โ his words reached my ears. His tone firm. I paused. โAnd is everyone there?โ I asked. โAlmost, we haven't seen Elena. She wasn't in her room.โI froze. Elena, not in her room. Where could she go? โFind her now.โ I ordered. โYes sir.โ Trevor answered as he stepped out. The door had barely closed, when I felt a sudden throbbing pain in

Elena POVI was closely following right behind Ryan as we moved to the meeting room. Reaching there, that tingling aroma from before reached my nostrils. That means whatever was happening in the meeting room was a special occasion. I stepped into the room and just then my eyes landed on themโฆ Crystal wrapped herself around Ryan, squeezing tight around him like she owned him. And just then Ryan turned his gaze to me. And then, I saw something flicker in his eye. Guilt! Was he guilty because of me? โThe aroma here is quite nice.โ I said before walking away. I tried my best not to make that situation any more awkward than it already was. But, I couldn't help myself but feel jealous. And I hated it.. But, Ryan was my mate and those feelings are almost inevitable. But he chose Crystal and there was nothing I could do about it. I watched as Ryan and Crystal moved to their seats. Ryan was at the head of the table, and she seat just beside him to his right, as future Luna and t

Ryanโs POVโBut then why me?โ she asked. And then I froze. I stopped to think to myself for a moment. Why her? She wasn't my wife. But telling felt so right. โIt doesn't matter.โโI'll see you when I'm back.โ I stood up and walked to the door. โRyan.โ She called. I stopped, and then turned to her. โGoodluck.โ she said, her voice was tender. She meant it.I nodded and walked away. I let myself be vulnerable to her. I wish I didn't but somehow it felt just right. She's not my wife, but I told my deepest secret, I've kept buried inside all these years. And even I still don't really know why. But now, that has to sit out atleast for tonight. It was time! โSir. The warriors are waiting for you.โA werewolf walked up to me. He had short blonde hair, and broad shoulders, with glinting red eyes. Valari, my lead warrior and my most skilled werewolf. He fought battles alongside me and Trevor, but this one would be the satisfying of them all. โLet's go!โMidnight. Cold. Sharp.

Ryan POVNot a single damn soul.I exhaled hard, grip tightening on my blades. Something wasnโt right.And thenโit hit me.That scent.Faint, but there. Werewolves, they were close by.The hair on the back of my neck stood up. My gut twisted. My wolf snarled.A trap.โScatter!โ I barked, turning sharply. โNow!โโIt's a trap!โThe first arrow came like a whisper.Then the night exploded.A sickening thwackโthen gurgling. A warrior jerked beside me, his eyes wide, blood bubbling at his lips. He collapsed hard, hands twitching in the dirt, then still.More arrows.They were coming in fast and from everywhere. The air screamed with them. Hissing past my face, slamming into bodies, tearing through flesh, armor, bone.Callum staggered. Chest shot through. His mouth opened like he wanted to speak, but thenโgone. Just gone.โMOVE! COVER!

Elena POVI stayed in my room for the most part of that night. My mind was in dissary. But still on one person. My mate. Ryan. I paced around my room for almost an hour straight. And then I'll take a occasional peak out my window to check if they were back. I couldn't help but worry. My body for some reason felt uneasy even though it shouldn't. It's just an ambush. It should be easy. And besides, they've gone on several battles before today and always come out on top. Tonight wasn't suppose to be different. If anything, it was suppose to be more easy than usual. But for some reasonโฆ it was still feeling uneasy. Maybe a warm tea ought to free me up. I walk to the door, slipping to my shoes before walking out. โDo you know who I am, huh?โ โI'm the Luna oof this pack and you dareโฆโโI can easily make your live here a living nightmare.โโMaโam please I'm sorry.โ. โPlease I am.โI was reaching the kitchen when I heard Crystal's stern voice. โCrystal never changes.โ I sighed.

Elena POV I laid on my bed staring up at the ceiling. I couldn't sleep, not until I see Ryan. I needed to know what really happened. Did he avenge his parents murder?And if so, at what cost?I may not have seen him in action yet. But the tales we were told when I was in my old pack. Alpha Ryan was the best and most skilled fighter in the Werewolf land. So for even a top level fighter to come back so battered and bruised up, was a bit worrying. Just then I heard a soft knock on my door. I hesitated, just staring at the door. Who would be at my door at this hour? And then the knock came againโฆ this time a bit louder. I gently walked to the door and opened it. What? Ryan! โWhat.. Whyโฆ How?โ He stood, bandaged and patched up. โWhat are you doing here?โ I finally managed to speak. โCan i come in?โ he requested.โYes.. Sure.โ I stepped in and pulled a seat over to him, movement a bit hasty. โI don't have much time before the guards know I left.โHe lowered his voice.โOkayโฆ so

Ryan POV I left Elena's room, my heart a bit heavy. I didn't have to burden her with that news. But I did. Because for some reason, Elena felt like the only one I could really trust. I moved gently through the hallway. Every step burned, my back and arm screaming, pulling, tearing, but I had to bear it. I had to return back to my room before the guards return from their shift. The last thing I want is for them to get worked up more over me. I reached my room, and with a small nudge, I carefully pushed the door open, the creaking noise disturbing the silence. โHey handsome.โ I heard a soft voice. I snapped my head to the direction. Crystal! My eyes cracked wide open as I turned to her. A thin dress clung to her frame, light, deliberate. Her golden hair cascaded over her shoulders, her eyes dark, gleaming with intent.She smiled. โYouโre finally back.โโW..what are you doing here?โ I asked, my breath shaking. โCan't a wife a come check on his husband?โ She asked, her tone lust

Ryan lying next to her.Crystal.I had seen themโhis body half-turned toward her, her form curled near his, the sheets tangled between them My stomach had twisted, sharp and ugly, but I had turned away before I could feel it break me. Before I could do something stupid.Because thatโs what I had done, hadnโt I?Let myself believe, for just a second, that maybeโ**just maybeโ**there was something for me there.Fool.Crystal was his Luna to be, how could I forget thatI got my mind clouded up with the ambush and Ryan's past trauma, for a second i thought maybe, our mate bond was getting stronger.

Elena POV The knock on my door came loudand fast.โElena, up! Weโve got work to do!โ I heard Ariaโs loud voice. I groaned. โWhy so early?โ I mumbled, but I was already pulling the sheets off.I slid my legs into my slippers, dragged my feet to the door. By the time I opened the door, she was standing there with a determined. โDress warm. Weโre heading deeper into the woods.โWhat?! โWhy..โโAnd bring anything of your mother's too.โShe didnโt wait for a reply. She turned on her heel and was gone.Anything of my mother's? What was Aria up to? I got dressed quickly and marched downstairs. Aria was waiting at the usually usual place. The far end of the training fields. I met her and without much hesitation we walked into the forest. The forest was quieter than usual. Aria didnโt say much, and I didnโt ask questions. I could tell this was different from before. The Memory Run had cracked something open in me. And now, whatever we were doing todayโฆ it was about facing what came

Thorne's POVโSir!โ Alexander, my new Beta said, his voice firm. โHere are the warriors!โ I faced a line of wariors. They stood like statues, shoulders squared, chests puffed, eyes forwardโฆ but I wasnโt impressed.I paced slowly in front of the line of warriors, the cold morning air biting at my skin. I kept my hands behind my back, my gaze sweeping through each and everyone one of their faces. โThis,โ I said, my tone very bitter, โis it?โNo one dared speak.I turned sharply to face the man at the center, Alexander said he was their leader. A tall one, broad-shouldered, with a long scar running down the side of his face.He seemed larger and more stronger than the others. He took a step forward, his shoulders broad and straight. โSir,โ he started, โweโve been stretched thin sinceโฆโโI didnโt ask for excuses,โ I snapped, cutting him off. โI asked why this packโs elite warriors look more like a disorganized group of orphans.โHis mouth twitched. He was biting his tongue.โSpea

Elena's POVThe sun cracked through the edge of the curtains, brightening the room. Warm, golden light spilled across the room. I lay there for a moment, staring at the ceiling. My heart beat a little quicker than usual.Today was different. Today meant something. For the first time in a while, I had something I really looked forward to. I threw off the sheets and sat up at once. I ran my fingers through my hair, then pressed them against my chest, right over my heart.Could I really do this? Could I really let out that wolf inside me after all these years? Aria believed I could, she was so confident, but I'm notShe said it was buried inside me, caged by pain Iโd carried since I was a child. That the wolf wasnโt gone..

Elena POVI gave myself a moment in front of Ryan's door and then pushed it open. โElena?โMy name on his lips stopped me before I could take another step. I inhaled sharply and then stepped inside. โHey,โ he said, standing up at once. โYou alright?โโIโฆ yeah.โ I closed the door gently behind me. โI needed to talk to you.โHe motioned for me to sit, and I did. โWhat is it?โ he asked, his brows folded.I gave myself a moment, letting the silence stretch.โI saw Aria today just before you arrive and we talked.โHe nodded, waiting for me to finish. โShe saidโฆโ My hands curled at my sides. โShe said I might not be wolfless after all.โHis breath hitched. Just a little. The smallest flicker of shock on his face.โShe says she can feel it in me. The scent of a wolf. A powerful one. That maybeโฆ the reason I havenโt shifted isnโt because Iโm empty. But because Iโm blocked.โ I looked up, my eyes meeting his. โThat somethingโฆ maybe what happened to my motherโฆ has locked it inside me.โHe

Ryan's POV The gates creaked open and the wind hit me firstโฆ cool, sharp, cutting through the blood and sweat caked on my skin. Home.The others were behind me, dragging their tired bodies and bruises along. The warriors ahead of us called out, opening the way, and I walked forward with slow, deliberate steps. My body was screaming, my knuckles still stung, and I could still taste the iron of the last fight on my tongue. But my mind was elsewhere.I was scanning through the pack.Looking for her. Thenโฆ I saw her.Elena.She stood near the steps, the wind catching strands of her hair, her lips parted, eyes wide, like sheโd stopped breathing altogether.And fuck.The rest of the world just disappeared.She looked at me like she wasnโt sure if I was real. Like sheโd waited for this moment, held onto it through every ache and tear and silent prayer. My chest clenched. I didnโt know if it was the injuries or herโbut it hurt. In the best kind of way.Our eyes locked. That bond sparked, pu

Elena POVI woke up sharp. The sun was barely in the sky, but my eyes flung open like they'd been waiting all night. I didn't remember getting much sleep. And how could I? Ryan had gone on another raid call, and considering how the previous one went, I had cause to be worried. And just like that, my thoughts snapped to him. As it were throughout last night. I could only sit down here and hope he's alright. โPlease be okay.โI whispered it into the pillow before sitting up. My hands shook a little as I reached for my robe. I didnโt bother brushing my hair. I didn't feel like it. I didn't feel like doing anything until I see Ryan. But maybe, taking a walk around, or talking to someone could clear my mind. I stepped out of my room, and then, the soft air of the morning hit me. The halls were quiet, servants just starting their day. I made my way down, to the long hallway that led to the kitchens and the dining hall.The smell of food hit me first. Fresh bread, something warm
Eventual Lunaย ย ย Chapter 37
Ryan's POVIt was him. The man who murdered my parents.Marvin was his nameโฆ according to Valari. The alpha of the Shadow Blood pack. All the memories of that day, all slammed into me like a punch to the chest.โYouโฆ,โ I breathed.Marvin stepped front. โ... Your, Alpha Ryan right? Not sure we've met.โTrevor stepped in front of me, steady, but I shoved past.โYou'll know soon enough,โ I growled.My claws extended, breath shaking. That wasnโt just an enemy.That was the monster who made me an orphan.And thenโฆeverything exploded. They moved first.A low snarl rumbled through the air like a warning. The fifty warriors lined up in front of him all charged in at onceโฆ their loud snarls thundering through the hall. It was hell breaking loose all at once. Just how I like it. Trevor shifted before they even got close.. his bones snapping mid-run, his wolf form slamming into the nearest one like a freight train. He sank his teeth into the guyโs throat and dragged him down, blood spurt

Ryan's POV She caught me just before I reached the door. And then, I felt it. The heat of her lips crashing into mine like it was the last thing sheโd ever do.I didnโt have time to think.. just feel.I kissed her back, just as desperate.And then she whispered, โCome back. Okay?โI paused for a moment. I couldnโt give her an answer with certainty.But I had to say what she needs to hear. For her own good. โI will.โThen I turned and left. The air outside was colder than before, sharp with midnight tension. My boots echoed against stone as I approached the courtyard, and the moment they saw me, the eight chosen warriors sharpened, straightening their backs. Trevor stepped beside me. โWeโre all here.โโGood,โ I said, voice low and tight. โNo mistakes. We do this clean.โAnd they all nodded. I scanned their faces. Trevor chose these seven men. His most trusted and skilled men to carry out this secret raid. โSame plan,โ I said. โFlank tight, silent approach. If theyโre waitin

Elena POV Aria stretched and let out a yawn, blinking slow like sleep was already dragging her under. โI think Iโll turn in for the night,โ she said, standing to her feet.โOhโฆ of course,โ I said quickly, rising too.She smiled at me again, that same warm, sisterly look that I hadnโt expected but kind of needed. โIt was really nice meeting you, Elena.โโYou too,โ I said, genuinely. Walking with her more was nice. She's really friendly. She walked off with a lazy wave and I stood there a moment longer.As the door clicked shut behind her, my thoughts came up again. I couldnโt shake the image of Ryan. His face from earlierโฆ it hadnโt left me. He was really troubled and worried about something. Maybe he wanted to talk to me about it, but saw I was with his sister, and didn't. He looked... tired. Like the weight of everything was pressing in on him.If he wanted to talk to me, then so should he. I stepped out of my room at once, stepping out into the hall, walking straight toward
