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? Why should I deprive myself of the pleasure of witnessing her prolonged suffering, of observing Asher’s heart shatter as he tirelessly searches for her?The thought incites a perverse sense of joy, a dark satisfaction that sends a shiver down my spine. However, before indulging in that, I have a debt to settle. Tacha, the treacherous sorceress, awaits her dues.I cast one last glance at Lisa. Her body was heaving with ragged breaths, her eyes wide with terror. The sight brought a cruel smile to my face once again, a grim satis

The villagers stared at me in surprise, but I ignored them, my focus solely on finding my mate.Despite my efforts, I couldn’t catch a scent of her. My heart sank, and a wave of fear washed over me. Could it be that she hadn’t come to the village? Or had something happened to her on the way? I brushed off the thought and approached one of the guards.As I neared, the guard fell into a deep bow as soon as he saw me. “Alpha,” he greeted. “Take me to the Bonnet house," I demanded, my voice firm
Missing Luna: She Is Mine 77: A Desperate Bond
LISA’S POVI had been desperately seeking a way to escape before Jonas returned, fearing that he would do far worse than merely take blood from me. Lying on the cold, hard floor, panting, I made a decision. I would reach out to Asher through our telepathic bond, the one connection that might save me.Closing my eyes, I concentrated, willing my mind to merge with Kiara's wolf, just as Asher had taught me. A sharp headache struck me, but I refused to give in. I tried again, and this time, it worked. Initially, it was a faint whisper, indistinguishable from distant thoughts. But then, clarity struck. I was hearing Asher’s thoughts. Desperately, I asked if he could hear me and told him I needed his help.As I communicated with Asher, Jonas burst into the cellar. His sly smile sent chills down my spine. “Well, well, well. Look what we have here. Looks like the little bird is trying to fly away,” he taunted.Summoning all my strength, I pushed myself into a sitting position on the floor. “

Your surprise awaits.”We strolled down the hallway, hand in hand, the morning sun casting a warm glow through the windows. I remembered the countless times I had run through this hall with Asher in pursuit. It felt like only yesterday, yet also a lifetime ago.I tightened my grip on his muscular arm as we neared the last landing, only to freeze in my tracks. My gaze was fixed on the two figures seated at the breakfast table.Max and Jax, my brothers, whom I thought I’d never see again, were right there. My mind was a whirlwind of questions.

Missing Luna: She Is Mine 94: Hunted By The Past

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.

"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.

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.
