Moonlit Betrayals Chapter 19 - A second contract ...
LyraI feel so incredibly overwhelmed that I have a real tough time keeping up with the history lesson, but the part I did catch was that a Lycan’s curse is only activated once they kill someone. I never killed anybody.“I know that it’s a lot to take in.” Silas smiles and I note the kindness in his eyes. He rubs the sides of my arms, and it calms me down a little.“Ya think?” I roll my eyes. “I’m one of you, but I’m not. My parents probably left me in the orphanage to protect me, and I have to kill someone to get my powers that may or may not protect our baby.” I run through it all and then my eyes grow wide.“What about the baby? Will I have to leave him or her at an orphanage?” My voice wavers as tears form a huge knot in the back of my throat.“No! I don’t know what your parents’ circumstances were. Yet. Look, Lycans don’t need packs the same way that werewolves do. They probably didn’t have a pack to protect them. You have one. Our pup has one, no matter what he is.” I know that

LyraThe one thing that keeps on bugging me is the fact that I have to kill someone to get my power. Apparently, it can also be by accident, but still. That isn’t something I would ever be able to do. I sigh and turn to my other side and stare out of the window at the sky as it slowly changes from day to night.The omega appears to inform me that dinner is ready and as I make my way downstairs, I can feel everyone looking at me. I wonder for a moment if there is something on my face. Silas pulls me into an embrace as soon as I join them in the communal dining room and he smiles.“I know that you’ve all been wondering about Luna Lyra. She has asked for asylum and I’ve granted it. You should all know that she is carrying my pup. It’s not what we planned, but it happened.” Silas beamed, and I’m surprised by the reaction as people shout out congratulations.“Unfortunately, she is still legally married to Alpha Eli. I need all of you to protect her the same way you would protect me. You kn

LyraAfter getting a couple of outfits that would also work when my stomach starts to grow, we return home. Each time I refused to get something, Elise insisted, so I got far more than I planned on. After helping the omega to pack my things away, I go in search of Silas and find him in his office.“Hey beautiful, did you have a good time?” He smiles brightly and gets up. In one swift move, he closes the gap between us and pulls me closer, leaving a soft kiss on my forehead. I think for a moment what a lovely gesture it is, and my cheeks turn bright red.“Yes, thank you. Elise and I had a difference in opinion of what is necessary and what extravagant is, but I had fun.” I laugh when he grins at me.“As long as you didn’t come home empty-handed. I also want you to start thinking about the nursery and what you want to change. It definitely needs a new coat of paint, and I was looking at cribs online.” He grabs my hand and as soon as he is seated behind his desk, he pulls me onto his lap

Lyra“The baby?” He instinctively places his hand on my abdomen and I place my hand over his.“We are both fine.” My voice is thick with emotion, but it feels so natural to share such an intimate moment. He seems to calm down a little but insists that I go to the doctor for a checkup. When we arrive at the hospital, we have to wait a moment.It seems a couple of pack members were injured and require attention. I try to convince Silas to come back later, but he refuses and within five minutes, I’m lying on the bed listening to our baby’s heartbeat. The doctor confirms that the baby is healthy.Sadly, we can’t find out the gender yet because it keeps turning its back to the camera. After my checkup, Silas walks me back to my room, so I can rest. He stays, and it feels strangely comfortable to have him around while I fall asleep.When I open my eyes in the morning, Silas is fast asleep in the chair and I smile when the omega walks in and looks a little shocked. I indicate that she should

LyraWe are about halfway through dinner when the alarm sounds again. Silas and I look at each other for a moment before I rush upstairs while he rushes outside. I’m pacing back and forth when the omega comes running in and closes the door.The poor girl looks so frightened that something inside of me snaps. I feel a stabbing pain shoot through my entire body and her eyes grow wide. The pain shifts from one part of my body to the next, and I’m convinced that I’m about to lose the baby.I try to tell the omega to get help, and it looks as though she understands when she finally runs screaming from the room. I take a step forward and when I see my reflection in the mirror, I feel as if I’m going to faint!I look like the werewolves, but different. I’m a bigger wolf! Is that really me?! My mind is racing, trying to figure out how, since I haven’t killed anyone, when Silas comes running into my room. His eyes are wide as he takes a deep breath and takes a step back.“Lyra, you have to cal

LyraI wake up feeling much better and instantly note an arm around me. As I carefully turn around, I’m not surprised to find Silas fast asleep. I take a moment to just study his face and I feel the passion I felt on that very first night.I don’t know if this is the mate bond or what I’m feeling, but I’m definitely feeling something. And whatever it is, it is strong. He stirs, but I don’t move and when he opens his eyes, he smiles at me and I feel as if I’m melting into a damn puddle.“Good morning, beautiful. How are you feeling? How did you sleep?” He sits up and frowns at me.“Good morning. I’m good. I feel good. I slept good. How about you?” I grin, wondering if good was going to be my word for the day. I really do feel good.“Well, much better now that you are awake. Do you feel up to telling me what happened?” He frowns as the omega knocks and enters the room without waiting for an answer. She looks shocked to see Silas in bed with me and disappears just as fast as she walked i

LyraMy mind keeps drifting to how close we’ve become while I stand there blinking at Silas. He kisses my cheek and wishes me a good night before walking down the passage to his room. I walk in to find my omega ready and waiting and before long, I’m curled up in bed.It’s all still so overwhelming. I was still processing what Eli did when I slept with Silas. Everything since then has happened so fast, it almost feels unreal. I drift off to sleep with the image of Silas in my mind and my dreams are full of things we do together.I wake up with a start in the middle of the night shouting his name after a horrible nightmare and within seconds he is beside me. Silas whispers calming words as I try to catch my breath. I realize that I didn’t shift, which is a good thing. I might just have destroyed the beautiful bedding if I did.“Did you have a bad dream?” Silas frowns as he wipes the tears from my cheeks and I nod. He pulls me into his arms just as the omega comes running with some tea a

Lyra“It’s going to be okay.” Silas moves fast and pulls me out of my chair and into his arms. He breathes in my scent and I feel the warmth of his chest radiate against my skin. He whispers sweet words that calm me while his hand strokes my hair.I believe him. I believe that even though Eli is threatening not just me, but Silas’s pack, it is going to be okay. Silas just has that confidence about him. Silas lets me go just enough to look into my eyes, and he strokes my chin softly.“You are stronger than you realize, beautiful. You also have me and the entire pack behind you. You are no longer alone.” His words mean more than I can say and when his lips touch mine, I respond. His kiss is soft and loving and when we break apart, it feels as if I’ve lost something.“Come on. I think you need to try to shift again.” He smiles, but I just look at him with wide eyes.“I can’t remember how I did it.” I sigh, but he takes my hand and leads me outside. We walk all the way to the edge of the

Moonlit Betrayals Chapter 49 - The conference.
LyraSilas helped me to set up a profile of each leader and their entourage, and we send it to Fiona so that she is kept in the loop of whom to expect and what traditions might be important. When we arrive at the bar, I get out and look at the building while taking a deep breath.I note a couple of very expensive cars, and it makes the locals wonder what might be going on. Helena and some pack members have booked into the local hotel and, according to the humans, there is a conference happening about conservation of some strange bug.I thought it would be the most inconspicuous, but now that I see some of the cars, I wonder if that was the best subject. Silas appears beside me, and we make our way inside. We are met by the waiter, and he takes us through the tunnel to the sanctuary bar.As soon as we walk in, we can feel the tension in the air. We are right on time, and it’s clear that most of our guests were early. Fiona sent out a notice to all guests informing them of the subject o
Moonlit Betrayals Chapter 48 - The plan.
SilasIt breaks my heart to see her so pale. A machine is beeping behind her and there are tubes everywhere. I lean and softly kiss her forehead, almost too scared to touch her. She’s never looked this frail, and I am once again furious that I didn’t protect her.It doesn’t matter how many people tell me that it’s not my fault, I still feel responsible. I should have sent more guards with her. I shouldn’t have let her out of my sight. I rest my head on her hand on the bed and feel how cool she is.From what the doctor has told me, and the little that I saw of her, Helena is in much of a similar state. What the hell did the hunters do to them? Helena mentioned something about examinations and what I take it. She could only explain as experiments.It’s torture waiting for Lyra to wake up and tell me. My mind is going to very dark places and what’s worse is that I’m probably right about some of it. I spend the night beside her bed, and wake up when I feel something stroke my hair.“Lyra
Moonlit Betrayals Chapter 47 - Rescued!
TRIGGER WARNING: VIOLENCELyraI finally see my gap when the doctor speaks to my captor. After they took this venom they wanted so badly, they stepped away from my bed and left the rest of the instruments close enough for me to reach. I knew that if I just waited, they would make a mistake.I can’t run now. I grab the first thing I can get my hands on and hide it underneath my body just in time before my captor returns to the bed. He pushes me back to the room and as soon as he is gone, I pull the scalpel out from underneath me.I make quick work of my bonds and then rush to free Helena. She’s stopped crying, but I’m scared they might come back for her next. We try the door, but it won’t budge and, finally, I lift her so she can try the window.I don’t know what it is, but she finds the strength and pulls one of the bars free. We look at each other only for a second before she hits the glass with her full force. The moment it shatters, we know that we don’t have any more time.I push
Moonlit Betrayals Chapter 46 - The hunters - Part 2
TRIGGER WARNING: VIOLENCELyraWhen I wake up, I’m tied to something. The cold steel behind my back almost burns my skin. It takes a moment for my vision to clear, and I can hear voices somewhere in the darkness. A huge light is shining on me as I try to free myself from my restraints.My head is pounding, and I can’t see Helena anywhere. I have to find her. We have to get out of here. I hear footsteps coming closer, and I close my eyes in the hopes that they will leave me alone, but I feel someone tying something to my upper arm.“Let go of me!” I growl, making the man in the white coat jump back.“Go ahead, doctor. She can’t do anything.” I hear the voice of my captor and snap my head in that direction. He is standing to one side with his arms crossed and that damn smirk on his face.“My husband will come for me. You will die.” I growl. I don’t know if they know anything about Silas and the pack and suddenly, I realize that I just put all of them in danger by trying to scare him.“O
Moonlit Betrayals Chapter 45 - The hunters.
Silas“Alpha! There’s been an accident!” The voice of one of the warriors that left early this morning with Lyra echoes through the pack link, but when I try to speak to him, there is nothing. We rush to the library, but it’s all locked up.I’m going out of my mind as we make our way back. Then something on the road’s surface catches my eye.“STOP! STOP THE CAR!” I growl and jump out as soon as we come to a stop. The scent of fuel is thick in the air the moment we get out, but there is no sign of a vehicle. As I walk closer to the spot, I note a small piece of glass.The road surface is wet. I smell the air and catch Lyra’s scent. She was there, and she was out of the car! What happened? Where is she? How on earth did they clean up the scene so quickly? There weren’t any signs of the accident when we drove past to go to the library.LyraI wake up to a pounding headache and when I touch my head, I can feel the dried blood.“Lyra, oh, thank the moon goddess.” Helena rushes to my side a
Moonlit Betrayals Chapter 44 - A way forward ...
LyraSadly, what I want is still in danger from the hunters thanks to Eli. Even worse, Lisa somehow escaped during the night. I pace back and forth in my office while Silas questions the guards on duty. How she escaped is clear.One of our guards is also missing. We know he must have helped her, but we just don’t know if she killed him or took him with her. Lisa doesn’t have a pack anymore. I watched as she slowly turned rogue in our cells.You can smell the wild wolf when someone turns rogue and, although it’s a first for me, I could smell it clear as day. I’m still getting used to some of the things I’ve been able to do all my life, but never understood why.While I was married to Eli, he just told me that it was wishful thinking. That I wished I was one of them and imagined I could do all those things. In the meantime, I was far stronger than he was and he knew it. I glare at the guards and turn away before I kill someone.“She’s going to go straight to the hunters, Silas.” I sigh
Moonlit Betrayals Chapter 43 - I love you.
Lyra“Silas, I didn’t think about it at the time, but how expensive could this favour of Fiona’s become?” I start worrying on the way home, and he smiles.“She is going to demand energy. I can promise you that, and she is going to demand it from you. She won’t kill you, but she will probably come close. Don’t worry about it. We aren’t going to give it to her.” He tries to reassure me, but his words do the opposite.Waiting for Fiona’s news is nerve-wrecking. Hours turn into days and then into weeks. I’m just about to have a coronary when I get some news. It’s not the news I’ve been waiting for, but at least it will keep my mind occupied.“What do you want Lisa?” I sigh as I walk into the basement where she is being kept. Eli’s mistress is the only one from his pack that we locked up. She is the only one that Silas believes is dangerous. We believe that she knows the hunters thanks to Eli.We don’t want her running to the hunters to make a new deal. Not that she has anything to give th
Moonlit Betrayals Chapter 42 - Where are the hunters?
LyraThankfully, Silas doesn’t take long to heal and within two days he is back home ordering people around. He seems happy with everything I’ve done while he was out, and now he is the one who has to make the arrangements for Eli’s old pack to join ours.Although I’m their alpha according to werewolf law, they will be swearing their loyalty to Silas. At first, I wasn’t happy about it all, but Silas convinced me that it is for the best. Our numbers should scare off the Hunters and if it doesn’t, we will have more than enough people to fight whatever they bring our way.“I still can’t believe you replaced our son with cabbage.” Silas laughs as we sit in front of the fireplace in his office. I smile, thinking back to what is probably one of the worst and best days of my life. I found my strength that day. I also saw what I could be, and I didn’t like some of it.“Helena and I had to think fast. I didn’t want to put Hunter in danger, but I wanted Eli to think it was him. I’m surprised no
Moonlit Betrayals Chapter 41 - Luna ... Alpha ... Queen.
LyraI can’t think about the werewolves around us. All I see is the blood spilling from the man I love. Helena comes running toward us as Silas crumbles to the ground.“Hunter! Where is Hunter?” His eyes are filled with panic as a smile starts to form on my face.“At home. Safe. It was cabbage. I brough cabbage with me.” I press down hard on his wound while Helena runs back to the library for the first aid kit. Our warriors are rounding up Eli’s wolves that survived the fight.Minutes later, our doctor appears, and I sit back, but I stay close. Silas has lost consciousness a couple of times and, from the look of things, he’s lost a lot of blood. I want to go with him when they load him into the ambulance, but our beta stops me.“Luna, he is in good hands. You have responsibilities here.” He looks at the wolves gathered just a few meters away. I nod and tell Helena to go with Silas and to keep me updated. She nods, and I watch as the love of my life is driven off before I turn my atten
