Missing Luna: She Is Mine 71: The Bite That Bound
LISA’S POVTime had slipped away into the darkness. As I blinked awake, I felt as though I had been thrust into an abyss. The world around me was shrouded in a cloak of impenetrable darkness.A dull, throbbing pain started to radiate from the right side of my neck, spreading rapidly through my veins like wildfire. As I forced myself upright, my hand instinctively shot to the source of the discomfort, gently cradling the tender skin there.“What happened to me,” Then, like a dam bursting, memories flooded back. Asher and I were lost in a moment of passion, his lips on mine. Then came the sudden, sharp pain as his teeth sank into my flesh. His eyes, wild and untamed, haunted my thoughts, causing my breath to hitch.“Why, Asher?” I whispered into the void. His eyes glowed with a wild, wolfish light, far from human. The teeth that nipped at my flesh were not just teeth; they were the fangs of his beastly form. A shiver ran down my spine. Was it anger that made him bite me, or was it somet
Missing Luna: She Is Mine 72: The Taste Of Revenge

But what made it even more intoxicating was the sight of Lisa, her fear of me as potent as ever.“Wha-what are you doing here?” Lisa stammered, her voice trembling with panic.My laughter filled the deserted hallway, a chilling sound that echoed off the walls. “Stay put, little rabbit,” I warned, my voice a menacing growl.“Don’t even think about running, or you’ll regret it.” I doubted she had the strength to flee. Her face was pale, her body frail, like a leaf trembling in the wind.As I leaned in, the air around her was tainted with Asher’s scent, a bitter tang that soured my triumph. “That

ASHER’S POVThe room bore silent witness to my turmoil.

Our bond, once strong, was now hanging by a thread. All because of a moment’s weakness—a moment when the desires of my inner wolf overpowered my own restraint.“Why?” I whispered into the emptiness, my voice barely a breath. “Why did it have to come to this?”The door creaked open, interrupting the silence. Silas stepped in, his head bowed in deference. “You called for me, Alpha?”I turned to him, my eyes pleading for the answers I hoped he could provide. “Have you seen Lisa?” I inquired, maintaining a steady voice despite the turmoil within.Silas nodded with a solemn expression. “I saw her, Alpha. She was… distressed, down the hallway. I attempted to engage her in conversation, but she remained unresponsive.”A wave

Uncertainty gnawed at the edges of my consciousness as I tried to recall where I was.The icy floor beneath me bit into my back, each jagged pebble serving as a cruel reminder of my harsh situation. The memory of Jonas, the beast who had cornered me back in the dimly lit hallway earlier, flickered like a lone candle before the world around me was plunged into an unfathomable darkness.A fever, as searing as a brand on my neck, throbbed with a rhythm that echoed through my veins, causing my body to convulse in its grip.

Missing Luna: She Is Mine 75: Blood Debt
JONAS POVCold, calculated thoughts raced through my mind as I stood over Lisa’s crumpled form on the floor. The idea of ending her life quickly, offering a swift and merciful death, had initially seemed more appealing.It was a tempting thought, a way to spite Asher, to rip something precious from him just as he had done to me. But as I stood there, a cruel smile playing on my lips, I realized the folly of such a decision.Why should I grant her a swift demise?

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.

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. "

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.
