THE LUNA REBIRTH: REVENGE UNDER THE MOON CHAPTER 7: A WEB OF LIES
The Silver Moon Packhouse library's lofty windows let in the morning sunlight, which created long shadows on the dusty bookshelves. Iris moved quickly but deliberately as her fingers stroked the spines. She kept thinking about what had happened the night before .iden's prompt but unsettling intervention, the rogues' involvement, and Damon's betrayal. Now that she had to find the truth before Damon could carry out his intentions, there was no room for error.A leather-bound diary that was clumsily placed on the highest shelf caught her attention. Her intuition burned because it didn't line up with the tidy arrangement of the surrounding volumes. Her fingers were shaking a little as she grabbed for it. When she opened the book, her heart skipped a beat despite its weight and its unmarked, faded cover.Scrawled notes, schematics, and what seemed like a rudimentary map of the packhouse were scattered across the sheets. Red lines indicated patrol routes, and the initials of D.L. Damon and

The training fields were illuminated by the warm light of the high sun. Members of the pack practiced moves and sparred in coordinated pandemonium. Iris stood on the brink, watching. After learning what she had about Damon and Lyra, she was unable to release the tension that was coiling in her chest. She had to maintain her cover, however, and today was all about fitting in.On the far edge of the grounds, she saw activity. Weeks later, the young omega she had shielded was facing up against a much bigger foe whose form was awkward and unsteady. The omega struck the ground with a dull thud, and the elder warrior let out a giggle.The warrior snarled, "Arise." "Or perhaps cleaning the kitchens is more beneficial to you than fighting."Iris felt a surge of rage in her chest. Before she could stop herself, she took a step forward. Her voice pierced the cacophony like a whip as she yelled, "Let me spar with him."The warrior's eyebrow went up. "You believe you can instruct him more effecti

As Iris strolled through the pack's center grounds, the fresh morning air carried a subtle aroma of pine and dew. Even though her thoughts were racing with anxiety, she maintained a steady gait and composed posture. She couldn't help but think about what had happened the night before, Damon's betrayal now a festering sore. Her next move, however, needed to be well thought out rather than rash."Iris!" a little voice said, interrupting her concentration.Several younger wolves approached, their faces tentative but resolute, as she turned to face them. Ethan, the omega she had protected throughout training, was in the front. His anxious gaze glanced about to make sure no one was listening."What is it?" Iris inquired in a circumspect tone. She had discovered that she shouldn't put too much faith in this pack.Ethan took a step forward, his words almost audible above a whisper. "We must speak. In private.She nodded, but her gaze narrowed. "Come with me."She guided them to a remote loca

In the thin moonlight, the patrol path seemed to go on forever. The trees' shadows danced like ghosts as they spoke in the night air. Iris traveled in silence, each snap of twigs and rustling of leaves captured by her keen senses. Beneath her sleeve, the mark on her wrist had started to throb softly, becoming warmer with each step she went.She felt a little pulse at first, but as she got closer to the patrol's limit, it became hotter and sent a shock up her arm. Her breath caught as she hesitated. Although it wasn't unpleasant, the feeling drew her in like a force urging her to look at something she couldn't see."What is this?" She touched the mark with her fingertips and said.The woodland parted to expose a moonlit clearing as if in response. Here, the air seemed thicker and more energetic, causing her skin to tingle. With its silvery light lighting every blade of grass and every petal of the odd blue flowers that sprinkled the ground, the moon's brightness seemed stronger.Her he

New Beginnings and BetrayalThe packhouse's great hall was alive with activity. Glasses clinked, laughter resounded, and the aroma of honeyed wine and roasting meat filled the air. I should have been pleased to be the Luna of the Silver Moon Pack, standing in the middle of it all. However, something felt off. My fingers clenched around my glass's fragile stem. All eyes were on me as the ceremonial toast was about to start.Lyra stood next to me and said, "You look nervous." She smiled warmly, but there was something in her eyes that I couldn't identify."Do I?" I said, suppressing a little chuckle. "Perhaps it's the gravity of the situation."She brushed a stray hair off my cheek as she drew closer. "Nadia, you'll be all right. You own this evening.I should have been reassured by her comments, but they didn't. For years, Lyra had been my closest friend and confidante throughout all of Luna's difficulties. But something about her tone tonight made my stomach turn.I raised my glass

Second Chances Before me, the forest went on forever, the thick trees whispering secrets in the refreshing wind. Every step I took hurt my body, and I felt the weight of fatigue dragging me down. The allure of the Silver Moon Pack's boundaries was too great to ignore, even if I had no clue how far I had gone.Once my home and haven, the pack was now a battleground that I had to negotiate cautiously. I was no longer the Luna they knew as Iris. Rogues were seldom welcomed, and I was a stranger.I staggered into an open space as the trees became thinner. With a shaky, broken gasp, I collapsed to my knees as my legs failed me."Just stop there!"I felt a shiver go down my spine because of the harsh, authoritative voice. A patrol of wolves emerged from the darkness as I glanced up, their postures prepared for battle and their gaze cautious.There was one in particular, towering, broad-shouldered, and exuding power. Aiden.The world seemed to stop for a second as his gaze met mine. He had

Deception and IdentityThat morning was quieter than normal in the packhouse, but it wasn't reassuring. Like the quiet before a storm, it was heavy.I was sitting on the side of my bed when there was a loud, authoritative knock. The door opened and Aiden entered before I could respond.I tried to hide my nervousness by mumbling, "Good morning to you, too."He didn't answer. Rather, his gaze skimmed over me, evaluating. He urged, "Come with me," in a tone that left no space for disagreement.Every step I took echoed in the empty hall as I followed him. He ushered me into a little office that seemed menacing despite its lack of furnishings. Leaning against the door with his arms folded, Aiden shut it behind us.He gestured to the chair across from his desk and said, "Sit."I sank into the seat and obeyed after hesitating. I could feel the weight of his unwavering, penetrating stare bearing down on me.He started by saying, "Let's cut the pleasantries." "What brought you here, and who a

Hidden TrustsThe packhouse was quieter than normal in the morning, but there was still a lot of tension in the corners, dense and unsaid. The sensation that I was being watched persisted. Perhaps Aiden's residual doubts were the cause. Or maybe it was Lyra's piercing eyes as if she was waiting for me to make a mistake.I decided to fit in more and try to allay the pack's suspicions. They had to trust me, or at the very least, stop treating me as if I didn't belong, if I wanted answers.I didn't anticipate the chance.I heard a piercing shriek as I was moving across the courtyard, and it made my heart skip a beat."Please, just give me some space!" a little voice pleaded.When I rounded the corner, I saw a bunch of elder wolves around a young omega who was no older than a kid. They shoved him against the wall while sneering and laughing.One of them shoved the boy's shoulder and said, "You're nothing but a runt." Why don't you just break away from the group? Nobody wants you here.My

The slight pulse of the mark on Iris's wrist served as a rhythmic reminder of her intertwined fate. As she went through the darkened packhouse hallways, she caressed it absently. She could still hear Lyra's veiled menace, a silk-wrapped, jagged sword. "Iris, keep your place. Or you may end up in a worse situation than you were in the beginning.Iris's fists clenched. Worse off? She had previously experienced betrayal, poisoning, and expulsion from her own life. Could they take any more?Her tumultuous thoughts were interrupted by the muffled sound of rustling at her window. The subtle metallic smell of blood filled her nostrils. Rogues. Running to the window, she looked out. A figure's shadow crept past the packhouse and headed quickly into the woods.She felt a blaze of curiosity and suspicion. Silently, she followed the figure into the thick woodland, her feet deliberate and practiced. Unsettling patterns appeared on the ground as the silver moonlight poured through the trees. Despi

Regret and LoveThe packhouse's big windows let in moonlight, which streaked the walls in gentle silver. I had been mindlessly walking the hallways, hoping that the movement would calm my racing thoughts. Under my sleeve, the mark on my wrist continued to pulse slightly, serving as a continual reminder of what the Moon Goddess had spoken.I turned a bend and came to a sudden halt.In the lounge, sitting by himself was Aiden. He was staring at the ceiling with his head cocked back and his large shoulders sagging. In his palm lay a tumbler of amber liquid, almost empty.I paused. It tightened my chest to see him like this, vulnerable, without his normal powerful presence. However, my curiosity prevailed."Have trouble falling asleep?" I entered the room and inquired quietly.His piercing eyes narrowed for a second before melting as his head swung toward me. "I could ask you the same thing," he said in a scratchy, low voice.I leaned against the doorframe and said, "I don't sleep well i
