Missing Luna: She Is Mine 24: The Unforgiving Floor
LISA’S POVThe air was heavy with tension, silently bearing witness to the unfolding drama. The mystery of Alpha Asher’s fascination with the jagged scar gracing my neck was beyond my comprehension. His face, typically warm and vibrant, had turned pale, as if my words had drained the color from him.Jonas, his eyes icy and piercing, shot me a glare that could freeze the sun. I quickly averted my gaze to the safety of the floor. It wasn’t Jonas’s icy reaction that prompted me to do so, but the unbearable sight of Asher’s face, now mirroring shock and disbelief.Asher, finally regaining his voice from wherever it had fled, asked me again, his voice trembling slightly, “Are you sure you got that mark from horse riding?” I shrugged, my voice barely a whisper. “I can’t remember, but my brothers assured me it was so. They said I had taken a nasty fall while galloping around our parents’ farm.”Before Asher could utter another word, Jonas, like a protective wall, stepped in between us. His
Missing Luna: She Is Mine 25: Thorn in my side
JONAS POVA storm of jealousy rages within me, threatening to consume my sanity. My brother Asher’s infatuation with Lisa is a relentless thorn in my side, a ceaseless, gnawing torment that seems to amplify with each ticking second of every interminable day.I hate to admit it, but I’m currently at my wit’s end, trying to make him understand that Lisa is mine, and mine alone. His mate, Kiara, is gone, swallowed by the cruel jaws of death.Yes, I know this much because I was there that fateful night. I was a silent witness to her demise. I planned every single detail, from the moment she was deceived to the moment she met her end. Therefore, there’s absolutely no room for doubt.Kiara isn’t coming back; I’ve made sure of that. The sooner that fool, Asher, understands this and moves on, the better for him. Lisa may bear a striking resemblance to Kiara, but it’s nothing more than a bizarre twist of fate.I was wrong to believe that making him obsessed with Lisa would lead her to become mi
Missing Luna: She Is Mine 26: A shattered Promise
ASHER’S POV'Asher, stop trying to prove that Lisa is Kiara. She isn’t.' Jonas’ warning from earlier reechoed in my mind, igniting a surge of reckless energy within me. It was similar to a wild hurricane, driving me to pace the confines of my office like a beast trapped in a cage.I paced the room restlessly, haunted by the uncanny resemblance between Lisa and Kiara, which was driving me to the edge of my sanity. 'I can’t remember it, but my brothers assured me it was a nasty fall while we were galloping around our parents’ farm,' Lisa had said. The look in her eyes as she spoke those words was eerily familiar.“I couldn’t believe it,” I whispered to myself. The scar was a mirror image of the one I remembered. But how could I confirm it when all she had was a fragmented memory that she could barely piece together? Despite the chilling familiarity of the scar and her face, they remained devoid of any trace of any wolf.Frustration swelled within me, a tidal wave of emotion threatening
Missing Luna: She Is Mine 27: A Mountain Against My Storm
LISA’S POVThe early morning sun crept in through the window, forcing me to stir awake. I opened my eyes groggily to see Jonas standing over me, his gaze intense. Startled by his close proximity, I quickly pushed myself off the floor and into a sitting position.“Good morning, Master Jonas,” I greeted, my voice barely above a whisper as I lowered my head, the cool earth pressing against my forehead.Silence hung heavy between us, his response absent. Yet, I could feel the intensity of his gaze, as if it were a tangible force searing through me.Curious to find out what could be the matter, I lifted my eyes and met the piercing gaze of Jonas. His eyes, dark as the midnight sky, were ablaze with a fury that sent shivers down my spine.He leaned in closer, his breath warm enough to tickle the tip of my nose. “What were you dreaming about last night?” he demanded, his voice as sharp and cold as a blade slicing through the winter air.I bit my lip, refusing to allow him access to the secre
Missing Luna: She Is Mine 28: The Hunting Truth
JONAS’S POV"Falling off a cliff?" I echoed her words in disbelief. Lisa’s dreams were about falling off a cliff. How could that be?I turned away, my hands curling into fists to suppress the visible rage that was slowly turning into trembling. My heart pounded in my chest like a drum, its rhythm echoing the shock coursing through my veins.Perhaps I misheard. My mind might be playing tricks on me. As I turned to face her one more time, my eyes were wild, staring into Lisa’s confused ones.She remained crumpled and vulnerable on the floor, her eyes wide as she looked at me. As I took a step closer, she recoiled in fear, crawling backward and away from me.The information about her dream she had just shared hung in the air between us—a chilling truth that seemed to freeze time itself.I swallowed hard, my throat dry as the desert. “Is it true?” I asked again, my voice barely a whisper.She nodded, her eyes never leaving mine. “Yes,” she said, her voice trembling. “It’s true.”Overwhelm
Missing Luna: She Is Mine 29: Hangover Haze
ASHER’S POVA groan escaped my lips, its sound muffled by the soft pillow beneath my head. The room was bathed in a golden glow, the sun’s rays piercing through the gaps in the curtains, casting a warm, dotted pattern across my face.“What time is it?" I murmured to myself, realizing the sun was already high up in the sky. I should have been up and running by now not cooked up in bed.As I attempted to rise, a sharp, piercing pain shot through my skull like a lightning bolt, instantly forcing me back onto the bed with a startling thud.“Ow!” I cried out, my hands flying instinctively to my temples. My fingers pressed into the skin, trying to soothe the throbbing ache that pulsed beneath. “What in the world happened last night?” I muttered to myself, the confusion evident in my voice.I sat there, lost in a fog of confusion, trying to piece together the fragments of the previous night. My last clear memory was of myself, hunched over my broken study desk with a glass in hand. But now,
Missing Luna: She Is Mine 30: Silent Plea In The Darkness
LISA’S POV My vision blurred into an unending haze as I lay crumpled on the cold stone floor of my cell. The floor was a cruel bed, its chill seeping into my bones like a dagger’s bite. The shackles gnawed into my skin with every move and turn. My bones felt fragile, as if they might shatter under the slightest pressure. My muscles screamed in protest, worn thin from the futile struggle against my iron shackles. Jonas, ever the ruthless captor, had ensured my bonds were as unyielding as his icy heart. “Why, Jonas?” I whispered into the consuming darkness, my voice barely taking a breath. “Why such unyielding cruelty?” There was no answer, just the echo of my own desperate voice, a haunting reminder of my solitude, bouncing off the cold, unforgiving walls. I curled tighter into myself, seeking warmth in the biting cold. Thirst and hunger claw at me relentlessly, but it was the haunting memories of my life back home with my family that inflicted the deepest pain. The darkness grew
Missing Luna: She Is Mine 31: The Puzzle Of Jonas
Asher's POVThe afternoon air was heavy with tension as I watched Jonas’s figure disappear into the distance. A sense of unease coiled in my gut, a familiar serpent whispering warnings of a possible treachery. I turned to seek out Silas; his presence was a silent shadow beside me, his head bowed in submission.“Silas,” I called out, my voice steady despite the turmoil churning within me. “What do you make of Jonas’s departure?”His posture straightened, his eyes flickering up to meet mine, a silent acknowledgment of the gravity of the situation. “Alpha Asher,” he began, his voice a steady rock amidst a raging sea. “I’m afraid I cannot discern his motives. He is as unreadable as the night sky, devoid of both stars and moonlight, leaving us to find out what he is really up to.”I nodded, the weight of command settling on my shoulders. “Then we must find out what he is up to at this time. Have someone follow him discreetly and report back with your findings.”Silas offered a curt bow, h

Missing Luna: She Is Mine 94: Hunted By The Past
Asher’s POVThe days in the clinic passed slowly, each one a blur of pain, healing, and the constant presence of Kiara. Her unwavering support was a balm to my soul, but there was a darkness within me that even she couldn’t fully reach.I could see the worry in her eyes, the way she watched me as if afraid I’d slip away—not just physically, but emotionally.But I kept up a strong front. I was the Alpha, after all. My pack needed me to be strong, to lead them without showing any form of weakness.

Every breath was a struggle, each one reminding me of the fight I’d just endured, of the choices I’d made—choices that would haunt me forever.But through the haze, one thing remained constant: Kiara. Her presence was an anchor, keeping me grounded in the world of the living. I could feel her hand in mine, warm and steady, as if she were pouring her strength into me, willing me to stay with her. I fought to open my eyes, to see her, to reassure her that I was still here. When I finally managed to crack them open, the first thing I saw was her face, close to mine, her expression a mixture of exhaustion and fierce determination. Even in her weariness, she was beautiful—more beautiful than I could have ever imagined."Kiara," I whispered, my voice barely audible, but she heard me. She always did. Her eyes softened, and she leaned closer, her touch g

Kiara’s POVJax and Max stopped their antics, grinning at each other in triumph. "That was awesome!" Max exclaimed.But I just growled, my eyes fixed on Tacha. "You're not controlling me anymore," I snarled. "It's time to put an end to this."Tacha sneered, but I could see the fear lurking in her eyes. She knew she was beaten.I charged forward, my wolf form propelling me toward Tacha with lightning speed. My claws extended, ready to strike, and my teeth bared, prepared to sink into her flesh.Tacha tried to defend herself, but I was too fast. I pinned her to the ground, my claws digging deep into her shoulders, and my teeth sank into her arm.She screamed in pain, trying to struggle free, but I held tight.

Missing Luna: She Is Mine 91: Claws And Control
Kiara’s POVAs I stood there, the dagger still clutched in my hand, a wave of horror washed over me. What had I done? Asher, my love, my mate, lay motionless on the ground, a victim of my own hand. Tacha’s cackling laughter echoed in my mind, and I knew I was still under her control. But a spark within me refused to be extinguished. I remembered Asher’s words, his love, his trust in me. With a surge of adrenaline, I fought back against Tacha’s control. It was like trying to break free from chains, but I gritted my teeth and focused on Asher’s face. Slowly, agonizingly slowly, I felt Tacha’s grip on my mind loosen. I took a step back, the dagger slipping from my fingers. “Asher,” I whispered, my voice shaking. I dropped to my knees beside him, cradling his head in my lap. His eyes flickered open again, and he gazed up at me, pain and confusion etched on his face. “Kiara?” he whispered. I nodded, tears streaming down my face. “I’m so sorry, Asher. I couldn’t stop her.” A
Missing Luna: She Is Mine 90: Betrayal
Asher’s POV"Alright, let's go over the whole plan one more time," I said, scanning the room, locking eyes with each person present."Jax and Max, you two will create a diversion at the front entrance. Jonas, you're with me. We'll sneak in through the back and grab her. Kiara, you're our ace in the hole. Once we've got her, you'll take care of the rest."I turned to Jonas, who stood with his arms crossed, his face completely expressionless. His demeanor was suspicious, and I clenched my hands into fists."Jonas, I mean it," I warned. "I don't want to see even a hint of betrayal. You're with us, or you're against us. And if you're against us, I won't hesitate to end you."Jonas didn’t flinch; his expression remained bland and relaxed, almost as if he was bored."I'm with you, Asher," he said flatly. "Don't worry about me."I narrowed my eyes, trying to read him. But there was nothing to read. He was a blank slate, making it even more irritating to look at him."Good," I said finally. "

"But he has information we need. If we’re going to stop Tacha, we need to know everything he knows. I’ll make sure he doesn’t cause any more harm."Kiara shook her head, frustration evident in her eyes. "I can’t believe you trusted him. What if he’s doing all this just to lead us into another trap?""I don’t trust him," I clarified. "But I need him. We need him. And I’ll be watching him closely."Kiara sighed, her expression softening slightly. "Alright, Asher. I trust you. But please, be careful.""I will," I promised, squeezing her hand. "We’ll get through this together."Kiara nodded, though worry still lingered in her eyes. "What’s the plan?""I’m going to meet with Jonas again," I said.
