Moon Fire Reborn CHAPTER SIXTY-FIVE
SELENA’S POVYou ever had one of those days where everything feels like a cruel joke? Yeah. That was today.I had barely survived yesterday without losing my mind, and now I was about to do something equally stupid—go back to work. Because, apparently, self-destruction was my new favorite hobby.“Don’t overthink it,” Celestia whispered in my head as I stood outside the orphanage, watching the little girl—Sophia, I learned—wave at me with sticky fingers covered in honey.I smiled back and waved, pretending my chest didn’t feel like it was being squeezed. “You’re safe now, okay?”She nodded, her tiny face glowing with more hope than I had felt in years. And damn, if that didn’t hit me right in the stomach.I turned and walked away before the waterworks started. I couldn’t handle emotions right now. Not with everything else hanging over my head.‘Work. Focus on work.’It had been weeks since I last stepped foot in the training ground. The same place where Kai had dumped me when I first a

My eyes fluttered open, and I slowly took in my surroundings. Confusion filled my mind.Why was I in the forest?The full moon was high in the indigo blanket that was the sky. My eyes roamed around, trying to gauge where I was.I was lying on a pile of stones; the hardness of it pierced into my skin. My breath quickened. What was going on?I squirmed, trying to sit up. It was only then that I realized my arms were tightly bound to my body. In a panic, I brought my gaze to my legs. They were tied together. My heart rate quickened, and despite the chill in the air, sweat trickled down my spine.“HELLO,” I called out, hoping there was somebody, anybody out there who could get me out of this. Silence responded back to me.With wide eyes, my chest heaved up and down in panic as a chill ran through my entire being at the thought that I was in serious danger.Not only that, I couldn't feel it. My powers. The familiar energy that I usually felt in my core was…gone.Dread filled my bones.A so

One Year LaterI let out a curse. The soup I was cooking was too salty. I dabbed the spatula I used to stir the soup on my hand again before bringing it to my tongue to taste it. I reared back.Definitely too salty. Gideon was going to kill me.Slight panic coursed through me at the thought, and I moved to add more water to the soup.“SELENA.”I jumped at the sound, turning to my brother, who was at the door of the kitchen.“Yes,” I answered softly, my head low, not wanting to meet his eyes.“Where is the coffee I insisted that you serve me every day as soon as I wake up?” he growled, his eyes hard.I let out another silent curse. I had forgotten. “I—I’m sorry,” I said, stuttering. “I had to prepare the soup.”“Who cares about the goddamn soup when I haven't had my coffee?” He took steps closer to me, his eyes thunderous.My heart dropped as I shook my head, backing up into a corner of the kitchen while he got closer to me. Fear trickled down my spine. “I'm so sorry, Gideon. I'll make

The room was silent, except for the ground where the man with the hole in his body lay in his pool of blood.“What the fuck did you do?” came my brother's voice, sharp and thunderous.I flinched, taking a step backward. “I-I d-didn’t do anything, I swear,” I stammered, fear engulfing my body as Gideon edged closer to me, the other men behind him.They didn't look happy with whatever I had done to their comrade.“"What was that fucking thing that came out of your hands?” Gideon spat, moving warily towards me and giving a careful glance at my hands in front of me.My breaths came out quick as my chest rose and fell in panic. I let out a silent curse. There was no way these men were going to allow me to live, not after what I did to their man.I gave a hurried glance to the now dead man on the floor and back to my hands.Unless…A thought went through me.I raised my tied hands towards them, pointing my palms at them. “Don't take one step closer or you'll be like Hulk Man there on the fl

Violent wind blew through my hair as my hand held on to a stick that was wedged in the wall of the ditch that was way below the ground.My heart thrummed with fear as my legs dangled in the air. I was fighting to keep my hold tight on the stick.“HELP!” I yelled, hoping someone was out there and would be willing to help me. “SOMEBODY HELP ME!” I yelled again. The strain between the stick and my hand was beginning to weaken, and I said a silent prayer to the moon goddess.A tear dropped from my cheek at the thought of my body colliding with the hard ground. A shiver of fear ran through me, and I raised my voice louder. “SOMEBODY, HELP ME!”It was only silence that responded back to me as I dangled. I let out a curse as my palm around the stick started to slip.“No, no, no, no,” I whispered repeatedly, tears flowing freely like a dam had broken in my eyes, dreading what would happen if I let go of the stick.“Don't worry, I've got you.” A man's voice brought me out of my panic, and my e

KAI'S POVThe air was thick with the fresh scent of blood and the sharp sense of fear. But of all things I could focus on, my attention fully was on her.Her. The dashing she-wolf who had just fought men twice her size like a storm. I had compared her to a storm because of how wild, fierce, and unstoppable she had been effortlessly. She was now standing a few feet away, her chest heaving and puffing as she struggled to catch her breath. Her eyes were blazing while a crimson light still faintly glowed at her fingertips. Her name was Selena Ashford, and she was just like a puzzle being presented to me—delicate and deadly, vulnerable yet untouchable, all at the same time.At such a moment, I should have been focused on the battle, on the bodies lying at our feet, and the threat that might be lingering in the area, but my thoughts were fixed to her. I had never seen anyone—man or woman. I had seen no one fight with such immense power, and such control. She was dangerous, and yet her ha

SELENA’S POVThe pack territory was nothing like I had imagined.Rogues were supposed to live in filthiness, in tattered camps with the lingering scent of death and desperation hanging about in the atmosphere. But this place—this hidden haven—was something else entirely.The forest opened to reveal a sprawling village nestled in a valley. Neat, and well-maintained houses arranged on the winding paths, their wooden exteriors blending harmoniously with the surrounding trees. The air smelled of pine and fresh earth, not the stench of decay I had expected. The people—wolves, I reminded myself—moved about with purpose, their faces curious but not too unkind.It was... beautiful.Kai led me down a narrow path, his broad figure cutting through the crowd with ease. His presence was majestic, commanding, and wherever he passed, people bowed their heads in respect, murmuring greetings that spoke of both reverence and admiration.“Alpha.”The title followed him like a shadow, spoken with awe fro

SELENA’S POVI remember now.I remember every fucking details now. Every memory, every ounce of betrayal, every excruciating pain—I remembered it all. I recall being Irene Blackthorn. That was who I was, who I had been before the silver knife severed my life. And the one who sent it through me was the man I had once called my mate. He was Damon Nightshade. His icy blue eyes flashed in my mind, the same ones I once used to see love in were now poisoned with hatred. He had stabbed me with no hesitation, no remorse at all.And Elara. The witch. She had helped him. I could clearly hear her twisted smile resounding in my ears, her dark magic... they had both torn me apart. But the physical pain I had felt then was nothing compared to the torment of knowing that the love I had offered to Damon so freely had been nothing but a weapon in his hand.I gasped for breath, clutching the blanket around me like it could protect me from the torment surging in my veins. The warmth of the room contras

Moon Fire Reborn CHAPTER SIXTY-FOUR
SELENA’S POVI was starving.Not just for food—but for peace, for clarity, for something that didn’t feel like my entire world was on the brink of collapsing. But first, food. I needed actual food.I hadn’t eaten in days, and my stomach felt like it was trying to consume itself. If I didn’t get something in me soon, I would probably drop dead—and honestly? That didn’t sound half bad right now.The Fake Me was dead. She was gone, and Kai had helped me end it. But even as her blood dried under my nails, the anger boiling in my chest refused to settle.Kai.His name alone sent a bitter taste of bile crawling up my throat. The guy who was supposed to be my mate. My protector. My everything. And what did he do instead? He kissed a clone. A cheap knockoff. And didn’t even notice the difference.God, I hated him.And maybe I hated myself more… for still wanting him despite it all.“You’re being dramatic,” a voice echoed in my head. A voice I hadn’t heard in weeks.I froze in the middle of my
Moon Fire Reborn CHAPTER SIXTY-THREE
KAI’S POVThe sky looked like it was bleeding.Deep shades of red bled into a blend with orange as the sun kissed the horizon goodbye, but I barely noticed. My legs moved so fast instinctively as thoughts travelled widely.Selena had been in my mind. My Selena. Not the one parading around as her, poisoning the pack elders with lies and planting seeds of distrust—but the real one.Her voice had hit me like a bolt of lightning, shattering through the fog of doubt that had settled over my wolf and me. Nyx was practically vibrating in my head, growling with a mix of anger and hope.“Told you,” he snarled. “I’ve been saying it for days. That imposter doesn’t feel like her.”“I know,” I muttered under my breath, pushing harder, my boots crunching against the dirty path as I headed straight for Selena’s cabin. “But how? How did I not see it?”Nyx let out a low growl. “Because you’re too busy drowning in guilt and kissing fakes.”His words hit harder than I wanted to admit. I hadn’t wanted to
Moon Fire Reborn CHAPTER SIXTY-TWO
SELENA’S POVIf there was one thing I had learned about being stuck in a literal hellscape, it was that time stops mattering. The void wasn’t just a place; it was a prison, a suffocating bubble of nothingness that pressed in on me from all sides.“Elara!” I screamed again, pounding my fists against the invisible barrier. My voice came out raw, hoarse from hours—days? Weeks?—of yelling. “When I get out of here, I’m going to—”“Oh, honey,” Elara’s voice cooed smoothly into the emptiness like a snake. “You’re not getting out. Ever. Save your energy for crying. It’s more entertaining for me.”Her laughter was like nails on a chalkboard, scraping against my nerves. I hated her. Hated her smug, selfish tone, and her obnoxious grin. But most of all, I hated the helplessness that clawed at my chest every second I was stuck in here.I slid to the nonexistent floor, cradling my knees. I hated the quiet moments too, when Elara wasn’t tormenting me, and it was just… me. Alone with my thoughts, on
Moon Fire Reborn CHAPTER SIXTY-ONE
ELARA’S POVStanding in my dimly lit cavern, I couldn’t help but smirk. Selena’s screams echoed around me like a symphony. It was loud, piercing, and full of desperation, but it was just so melodious in my ears.“Pathetic,” I muttered, leaning against the blackened wall. My fingers brushed along the edge of the mirror’s shimmering surface where I had the view of Selena’s futile struggles in the void I trapped her soul into. “All that big talk about being the chosen Luna, and now look at you. A broken little doll trapped in my playhouse.”Selena’s fiery eyes glared at me through the rippling darkness, her fists pounding against the invisible walls of the void. Every hit she made sent tiny sparks scattering into the room like dying stars. That was cute.“Elara!” she screamed, her voice rough from hours of yelling. “You’ll regret this! You can’t—”“Oh, I can’t?” I interrupted, tilting my head mockingly. “I already have, babe. You’re the one stuck in a magical void while I’m out here… thr
Moon Fire Reborn CHAPTER SIXTY
KAI’S POVI was in my cabin, sitting on the edge of my couch, staring at her.I meant Selena—or at least, the version of her that made my wolf go completely wild.“Why are you looking at me like that?” she asked, a soft laugh escaping her lips. She tilted her head, her hair shining in the dim light like some cheesy rom-com heroine.“I’m just… trying to figure you out,” I said, forcing out a smirk. Though inside? Oh, I was losing my mind.‘Nyx, you sure this is really not our mate?’ I asked for the fiftieth time today.Nyx growled dangerously in the back of my mind. ‘What can I say? I am fed up with arguing over that same question. Since she smells like her, she feels like her. Then it’s her, idiot.’‘Yeah? Well, she also acts like a completely different person,’ I shot back. ‘Selena doesn’t sit on my lap every five seconds or touch me like—’“Earth to Kai?” Her voice snapped me out of it.She was standing in front of me now, way too close. I could smell her; I could perceive those lav
Moon Fire Reborn CHAPTER FIFTY-NINE
SELENA’S POVLet me back up for a second. I had decided officially that this was hell.Not the fire-and-brimstone kind with little red dudes poking you with pitchforks. No. This was worse.Because this was my own personal horror movie, and I was the only actor.I thought waking up in a blank space was bad. I thought seeing Kai kiss some fake version of me was worse. But this? This was a whole new level of “nope, I’m out.”When I woke up—or at least, I thought I woke up—I was in my room. My actual room. My bed, my stupid fairy lights, even the half-empty bag of chips I had forgotten about on my desk.“Was it… a dream?” I whispered, my voice shaky as hell.I sat up, looking around like a psycho trying to find the hidden cameras. Nope, everything seemed normal. The sunlight poured through my curtains, the smell of pine wood and lavender from my diffuser wafted through the air. All good. All fine.But then, a knock came at my door.“Selena, are you up?”It was my mom’s voice. Or at least,
Moon Fire Reborn CHAPTER FIFTY-EIGHT
SELENA’S POVNow before I begin the narration, let me introduce this part of the story by saying: I was not prepared for what the Moon Goddess had in store for me. One second, I was perfectly fine—well, not fine-fine because Kai had been acting like a complete weirdo after our last kiss, but I was still manageable fine. And the next second?I was in a void. A freaking void! Like, void-void. Black nothingness. No stars, no ground, no “Welcome to the afterlife” signs. Just… emptiness.“Hello?” My voice echoed, which was weird because there was literally nothing around to echo off of.I got no answer. Not from my wolf, not from anyone.Panic swirled up my chest, itching at my throat. “Celestia? Where the hell are you?!”All I got was silence.Oh, very great. No wolf, no powers, and no clue of what was happening. I would 10/10 not recommend this experience to anyone.I tried to take a step forward—or at least what I thought was forward—only to feel like I was drunk with strong whiskey. E
Moon Fire Reborn CHAPTER FIFTY-SEVEN
KAI’S POV“Okay, Nyx, explain this to me like I’m five,” I muttered, squinting at the glowing artifact in my hands.My ever-so-dramatic wolf let out a long sigh in my head. “It’s simple, Kai. The Moon Goddess meddled with your life because she has an appetite for chaos. Honestly, I’m starting to think she binge-watches reality TV in her spare time.”I groaned, running a hand through my hair. The artifact which had an appearance of a smooth obsidian stone sparkling with glowing silver runes felt warm in my hands, vibrating like it had a heartbeat. I had gone back the next morning to where Silas almost got us killed. I really had no reason at all for reaching the shrine, but maybe that soft part of me wanted to be sure I hadn't killed my own father. And to my relief, it was as though the event never happened because the clearing had been so clean that I could swear it was a forbidden land.But on my way back, my eyes had caught this very artifact tucked away in a hidden area back at th
