Dane’s POV Leaving Raya behind was difficult, but Garret's advice was sound. If I didn't leave now, I risked not making it in time. I had to find out if the spot Amaya marked on her map was truly my birthplace. Before fully entering the woods, I stole one last glance at her beautiful face, then shifted with Lucian. The rush of cold wind against our hot fur was exhilarating, and with the moon on my side, I felt unstoppable. For a terrifying moment, I caught a whiff of the unmistakable scent of death, the kind only vampires carry. But just as quickly as it came, it vanished. Without time to investigate, I pressed on, knowing the wolves on patrol would handle any rogue vampires daring to approach our pack lands. As I ran towards my destination, the woods grew less dense until I reached a spacious clearing. It wasn't large enough to be considered pack lands, but it could accommodate a decent-sized house. As I approached the spot Amaya directed me to, I noticed the clearing led to a stee

Raya's POV "What do you mean, she's your mate? You don't know that. Today's not an Eclipse," Drusilla snapped at Elliot, surprising me with the way she was speaking to her Alpha. "It might not be the Eclipse, but I can feel her. There's a strong pull towards her," he spoke to Drusilla, but his gaze remained fixed on me. His eyes held a curious intensity, much like the wolf in the woods. Could he be that wolf? "Do you feel pulled to him?" Drusilla directed her question at me, pointing the small dagger she had been playing with towards me. I hadn't noticed it until now, and its presence only heightened the tension in the room. "I..." I hesitated, unsure of how to answer. I could feel a faint pull towards him, a gentle hum inside me, but it wasn't as intense as what I had felt with Dane. If I said no, would he harm me? If I said yes, would Drusilla hurt me? "She's human, Drusilla. She's not going to be able to tell," the warlock interjected, saving me from the difficult decision. "S

Dane’s POVEverything had gone to shit. I wanted to yell at the world, to howl at the moon for what we were going through. But I kept my composure, knowing that it wouldn't help our situation. I needed to stay strong for Garret, so he wouldn't see how terrified I truly was."Everyone's so quiet," Garret said, trying to lighten the mood, but the groan that followed his statement only added to the tension in the air. He was dying, and there was no cure for the Eclipse Moon Pack's bite. Yet, Amaya was frantically mixing ingredients together, desperately trying to find a solution. No witch had ever been able to break the curse of the moon, and as talented as Amaya was, I doubted she would be the first."Here, drink this. It will help with the pain," she said, lifting Garret by the back of his neck so he could drink from the wooden bowl more easily. The thick green liquid had a bitter scent that made me want to cough."What's in that? It's awful," Garret complained, coughing as he finished
Moonlit Rivalry: Raya's Heart Ch. 26
Raya’s POVI had somehow managed to avoid the question of why I was brought in. I feigned innocence, and thankfully the Lunas all believed me. They assumed that I had been taken to the warlock to be healed because I was human and, as such, could not heal on my own. Having to lie to the Lunas was not something I wanted to do, but I was worried about what they would think or say if I told them the truth.Sleep was hard to come by on the damp, cold ground, causing us each to only get a couple of hours before small streams of sunlight could be seen through the cracks of the bricks. The dungeon was falling apart, leaving small openings between the bricks for air and sunlight to get in. They weren't big enough to see anything through, but large enough to feel the air and let some light in. Even so, it was hard to see with only the smallest amount of sun entering."They are more than likely taking care of the dead this morning," Luna Beatrix was the first to speak as we ate the stale bread th
Moonlit Rivalry: Raya's Heart Ch. 27
Dane's POV Morning came before any of us were truly ready. With the sun's bright rays shining straight onto my face through the crack in my blinds, making it impossible to ignore. Instead, I dragged my tired ass out of bed and took a quick shower to further wake myself. Today I would help burn our dead and battle Alpha Jan, in that order. Lucian is a strong wolf, particularly since stepping foot near our pack lands last night. The reason behind his sudden surge in strength was hard to determine, perhaps just being close enough to our pack land woke his Alpha instincts further. Nevertheless, I felt confident that we could beat Alpha Jan if we fought well enough. The challenge lay in his armor and silver manipulation. However, there may be a slim chance of me convincing him to leave it off. Manipulating Jan into joining the fight had proven relatively effortless by questioning his courage. Today, I contemplated employing a similar tactic, asking if he's worried a pack-less Alpha co

Raya’s POV "How did you manage to escape?" Elliot inquired, his expression serious and demanding. My heart raced, and my palms grew sweaty, fully aware that I was in danger. Despite the situation, I couldn't resist answering him. "Well, your dungeon isn't exactly well-constructed. The place is falling apart," I replied, unable to hold back my words. He held his head high, crossing his arms, his anger evident as his nostrils flared. Taking a step towards me, I instinctively took one back. His eyes flickered, seemingly surprised by my reaction, but what did he expect? Of course, I would step back when a menacing figure approached me. "You think I'm going to harm you?" he asked, his voice suddenly soft. It was just the two of us in this grand throne room. Yes, a damn throne room! "Of course I do," I responded, looking up at him, curious about his thoughts. "If you were so convinced that you would be harmed, why didn't you attempt to flee? Why not try to climb the walls, at least?" h
Moonlit Rivalry: Raya's Heart Ch. 29
Dane’s POV “We have to go after her.” I told Cruz, feeling myself dying inside, knowing she was still with the Eclipse Moon Pack. “We’re not going to risk the lives of all these wolves for one human woman. I am sorry, Dane. I can’t take those odds. You’ll understand more when you have your pack under you,” Cruz said, trying to place his hand on my shoulder. But I moved, not wanting him to touch me right now. The feeling stirring inside of me was ready to boil out and attack, and I didn’t want the person I attacked to be Cruz. “Alpha Jan is ready for you, Beta. That is if you’re still wanting to challenge him,” Beta Thane told me, staring down at me from his nose, as if I were some weak wolf challenging his Alpha. I pushed past him, making sure to hit him with my shoulder on the way out. With the rage fueling me deep inside, I knew I would be inflicting a good amount of damage to ol' Alpha Jan here. I pushed my way past the crowd that had gathered. Having the Lunas back seemed to
Moonlit Rivalry: Raya's Heart Ch. 30
Raya's POV I stared out the small oval-shaped window in the room I now have to call home. I felt like that one princess with the ridiculously long hair that is trapped in a tower all her life. Her name escapes me. Either way, it was not a place I ever envisioned myself to be in. Apparently, that concoction Blake had us drink only allowed for one question, so he didn't tell me of a way to escape. It surprised me that he would use his one question to ask why the Lunaris pack was keeping me. I told him I'd answer any of his questions if he would answer mine, but he denied me, saying maybe another time. At least now I know to avoid any liquids that have the same color. Something tells me he won't be the only one trying to slip this truth serum, as I call it, into my drinks. I was pretty bored up here with nothing to do and a door that stayed locked from the outside. I tried my luck at picking the lock, but only haven seen this done in movies, I knew nothing of how to go about it. Defe
