I knew it was going to happen—all I needed was for her to believe she could for it to manifest and she did.As the moon’s glow dimmed, she completed her first transformation.

The sight of them disappearing over the horizon brought an unexpected surge of tears to my eyes.The final glance Asher cast my way before he turned away was etched into my memory - a silent pledge, a promise that he would come back for me.Swiftly, I brushed away my tears, turning back towards the sanctuary of our home. Yet, even as I did so, my mind was teeming with thoughts of the perils that lay in wait for Asher and his men.The night crawlers, creatures of darkness said to emerge only after sunset, posed a constant threat.

JONAS’S POVI awoke with a start, my breath catching in my throat as if I had been fleeing from a monstrous beast in my dreams. My eyelids felt as heavy as lead, reluctantly opening to reveal the world around me.I lay there on the hard surface, trying to figure out where I was and only realizing I was enveloped in an abyss of darkness, a kind that swallowed all light and hope. As I sniffed the air around me, I realized it was a bitter cocktail of dampness and decay, reminiscent of a forgotten dungeon buried deep beneath the earth.Time in itself had lost all meaning, with the past and present blurring into an indistinguishable haze. The only memory that managed to pierce through the fog was the treacherous act committed by Billy, that vile rogue.“Filthy animal,” a curse slipped from my lips, a venomous whisper echoing in the hollow silence.

Missing Luna: She Is Mine 68: The Unyielding Search

We had been searching for Jonas for what felt like an eternity, the threat of the night crawlers ever-present in our minds.His disappearance was a little strange as there was not a single trace of his scent anywhere. It was hard to tell in which direction he had even been taken. But one thing was certain, my brother was out there and I was determined to find him. I had no intention of leaving without him, whether dead or alive.If he was dead, I would take back his remain and give him a proper burial but if he was alive, I would stop at nothing to take him home.“Alpha,” Marcus called out, his voice low and urgent. “We’ve been at this for days and still no sign of him.

However, I kept nudging him, and soon, he relented.Today, he even allowed me to tag along on the Pack’s patrol. The women stopped and stared at me as we walked by, but none of them said anything to me. Silas told me to ignore their gaze and follow him.I did so, knowing full well that if I disobeyed, he would never let me out again. From the corner of my eye, I noticed the archery range and said to Silas, “With your permission, I would like to try archery again.”He glanced at the range and then back at me, unable to refuse. It was the perfect distraction to keep my mind off Alpha Asher as I continued to chase after him, the wind tousling my hair. At the archery range, I tried earnestly to hit the target.However, every arrow I released flew wide of the mark. “Am I that bad?” I wondered aloud. “Was Kiara any good?” Silas chuckled, “Kiara?

Just minor bruises”My eyes moved behind him, noticing the injured men been carried off to the pack healer but I didn’t see Jonas, making me wonder his where about.“Did you find Jonas?” The question lingered, heavy and haunting in the still air. Asher’s gaze fell to the ground, sorrow was deeply carved into his features, a silent echo of the battles he had endured. “He is still out there but I will find him even if it’s the last thing I do”"I’m sorry," I murmured, my fingers tentatively reaching out to brush his ar

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.

I could feel the steady rise and fall of her breathing, the warmth of her body against mine.

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. I could feel her dark magic coursing through her veins, trying to break free, but I was determined to stop her.With a fierce growl, I bit down harder, my teeth sinking deeper into her flesh and tearing off both her arms. Tacha's eyes widened in agony, and she let out a deafening s

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.
