The woods came alive around her. Mounds of dark earthly soil parting beneath her feet as she strained her muscles and ran. It had taken Kihara weeks to learn this woods. To be able to navigate its dense vegetation without tripping on her foot every five seconds. It was hard at first, hard for her to give in to the chase, to the feel of the woods around her, soil and breathing animals, to become a part of it all and not fear it. Asher had told her that young wolves were trained here. Every morning before the sun woke up, they had to run through it. And if they encountered any danger in the woods, they had to face it, best it. A boy wasn’t a full-grown wolf until he could tame every beast in the forest he lived in.When Asher mentioned ‘danger’ Kihara had nearly caved. Her heart quaked as she repeated the word. “Danger? What sought of danger is there?”Asher had looked at her and shrugged. “You know, the normal. Cayotes, other wolves.”“You mean your kin.” Kihara said, teasing him to di

Breakfast in the pack house was served in heaps. This was a surprising and amusing fact to Kihara during her first days in the pack house. She learned quickly that wolves consumed food thrice the quantity an average male would eat and still look at you with their puppy dog eyes begging for more. The wonders of a super-fast metabolism. Kihara mused. Asher drank every day, his alcohol was his water, and yet, she’d never seen him drunk. Nothing like giving the man a few drinks to loosen his tongue would ever happen with him. How sad. Kihara thought.After breakfast, there was nothing much to do in the pack house. Asher and his men went to work, where they tried to act like normal men for a few hours. Since Asher owned his own company, all he had to do was look the part of the CEO. Victor had whispered to Kihara once that the Alpha did nothing but sleep in his office all day, while he was stuck with doing all the paperwork’s since he was Ashers beta. Kihara asked Victor, “If all he does i

Don had left her. Or at least he’d tried to, the bastard. He’d gotten in that truck with the hopes of abandoning Anna and her baby. As much as Anna would like to deny it, she wasn’t completely shocked. Don was exactly that kind of man. He was selfish and conceited. He thought he was smarter than everybody else. He thought he was going to win.And because he was so full of it, so full of shit, Anna had believed in him. She should have known better.That day, she’d only barely escaped. She’d gotten in that truck as she watched Asher beat Don to a bloody pulp, knowing that if she stuck around, if she was caught, she would be next. And so she’d driven like there was no tomorrow. One of Asher’s men had come after her, and he nearly caught up to her, but she was lucky. Machines do not get tired, but wolves do, no matter how fast they are. They are only half human too.But there was no where to go. No where to run to. She couldn’t go back to her place, she couldn’t go to Don’s. She had

Weekends greeted Kihara with lots of activities. There was always something to do. Wolves trained everyday, they ran, they hunted, and did whatever else wolves did, but on weekends when the whole pack was at home, they liked to train together. Some of that training included some heavy fighting that often lead to some heavy injuries. It was bloody and brutal and quite enjoyable.Kihara would often help the injured wolves clean their injuries, lending a hand to Maria, the pack doctor. With the rate at which wolves got injured often, thank the moon for their supernatural healing abilities. Kihara couldn’t imagine how long it would take a human to heal from a sprained muscle, with blood and bones jutting out. But these wolves. Damn this wolves, everything they did made being human feel so mediocre.The training grounds was flat and filled with sand and it was alive again today. Kihara stood at the sides where the first aid kits were, watching. Some of the men had gone to hunt some game w

They showered, then they made love. Their love making was long and thorough. When finally, they both fell on their backs on the bed, a little exhausted, mostly satisfied, their faces glowed in the dark. On Kihara’s lips, a permanent smile had embedded itself. She turned her head to Asher beside her, her thoughts empty, her gaze helplessly fevered.Asher looked at her too, his hands cupping her cheeks. He kissed her lips softly, biting at the lower lip gently. Kihara let out a moan, closing her eyes.“Are you in love with me yet?”Her gaze flung open. She stared into his earnest eyes. His smile was still there, curved playfully like a tease, but his eyes were intense, searching, earnest. His eyes did not lie.“I might be Asher.” She told him gently. His smile widened.“Let’s get you to surety.” Kihara cocked an eyebrow. “Because only then can this,” He pointed to the space between the both of them. “Be fair.”The implication was clear. She knew what he was trying to tell her, what he h

The weekend ended. On Monday morning, Kihara sneaked out of the Alphas bedroom for her morning run. She’d run in the woods so often and had learned it well enough that she didn’t need to bring Asher along.She started at the mouth of the lake like she did every morning and ran her way around back to it. It was a long mile, and the first time she attempted it, she'd collapsed halfway. Even now, the run tested the limits of her endurance, hence, her strategy was to have short pauses in between runs to catch her breadth.This morning she was running her way back when she decided to take a short break, because her sides were burning and it was becoming extremely difficult to run another step. She grabbed the flask of water by her side and took a long swing from it. The water ran through her insides, it’s cool temperature soothing her burning organs and weak joints. Kihara found a large tree with a thick blanket of branches and sat by it, her back resting on it’s trunk.There wasn’t any p

Leila walked into Kihara’s room, her steps large and fast. In a moment she was standing over Kihara beside her bed. Her gaze was squinted and she looked absolutely worried.“I heard what happened this morning? Are you okay?”Kihara nodded. For some reason, she was on bed arrest. Asher had decided that she needed the rest and she did not have the strength to defy him, so perhaps he was right.“From now on, we’re running mates okay? I’m not letting you enter that woods alone.”Kihara nodded, her eyes watering. She took Leila’s hands. “I’m sorry I made you all so worried.”Asher had been preparing for work when he first noticed her absence. He had wanted to kiss her goodbye, but she was not in her room or anywhere. Then a boy had told him he saw Kihara go for her run and she wasn’t back yet. That was when he felt something was wrong because her run usually ended before Asher went off to work.Goddess! Kihara could not imagine what would have happened if Asher had not noticed, if he hadn’

“You did what?”Asher sighed. His Beta’s jaws was currently hanging off the floor. He had known Victor would strongly oppose, known also that Elise was one of the few creatures on this earth that managed to unnerve the life out of him. The woman creeps Asher out too, and once, maybe he’d liked the dangerous and sexy type. But he was literally a married man now and the only reason Elise would be coming to the pack was so that she can help find Kihara.“You invited her here? Are you mad?” Victor continued loudly.“Keep your voice down okay,” Asher hushed. “You know Victor, that we’ve been doing this ourselves for a while and failing. We need help, and she’s the best help we can get.”Victor shook his head, the look of horror on his face still not clearing. “Of course she’s the best Asher, she’s a fucking bounty hunter, hired killer, assassin,” Victor counted on his fingers, his eyes seemingly widening each time he dropped a finger. “And a fucking were-snake Asher, let’s not forget about

Twilight pack had gradually declined to a somber graveyard in the absence of it’s Luna. The halls bleak and lacking of color, every wolf felt the same bleakness inside of them, as though an emptiness had been carved in their hearts. More cruel was that they had no idea what to do. To mourn their Luna? For if she was dead, then that was the right thing to do. Or to hope? To dare look up to the moon and hope that she was still alive and that one day she would be returned? It did not seem likely, but it was a possibility they were willing to entertain. For their alpha, he needed it, needed that hope. That was all he ran on.Hunting down Sebastian had never become more primary than now. Asher has men combing every nook and cranny of this town. He was sure that one day, he would hit the jackpot and one of those searches would unlock the villains hiding place. He did not need to search for long however, it seemed that the villain was done hiding.It was early morning when it happened. Asher

“Please,” The prisoner begged, “You don’t have to do this.”Asher’s eyes burned. Why could he not do this? His mate was stolen from him, why did he not deserve to at least transfer his rage to this man who had helped make it happen.“I’ll talk, anything you want, I promise.” The whimpered, his voice pitchy and breathy.Asher paused in his steps. “Then start talking, and fast.”The man nodded furiously, his body visibly deflating with relief. “Where is Sebastian?” Asher asked coolly, the hammer hanging casually by his side.The fear was back in the man’s eyes. He looked up at Asher, his gaze with utter defeat, as he shook his head,“No?” Asher’s eyebrows twitched with impatience.“I really don’t know. I swear.” The man whimpered, voice so shaky it was barely comprehensible.“If you don’t know, then you’re not at all useful to me.” Asher growled lowly.The man fell to his knees. “We were hired randomly. They promised to take care of our families if we died for this, kill them if we didn

TRIGGER WARNING: Themes of torture mentioned below.)Brody found him first, in the thicket where he had chosen to bleed out his feelings. He felt like a broken man and no words needed saying as Brody looked over Asher. It was obvious that he’d not found Kihara, that he had failed in protecting his mate and now she was in the hands of a moon cursed wolf.“Come on Alpha, we’ll find her another day.” Brody said. Just not today, Asher thought. How was it acceptable that he came here with his mate and has to leave without her? How is it acceptable that she remains in that man’s lair, dead or alive for even a day?Brody helped Asher up and walked him back the way he’d come, until they broke out of the woods and unto the road. Asher’s leg was still bleeding but not as profusely as earlier and the pain of the wolf’s bane was also fading. Asher missed that pain, it was more merciful than the clenching and unclenching of his heart. This ache and this utter feeling of emptiness that was evading
THE MISJUDGED LUNA 86
Asher felt it rather than saw, from the distance of a still forming mate bond, his mate’s distress. He looked up, and that was when he saw the man that had introduced himself as Ajax with his mate. He’d knocked Kihara out and now she lay cold and unconscious in his arms. A growl tore through the air and earth. Asher’s eyes shivered with emotion, fear and anger. Ajax looked over his shoulders at him, and for once, that unsmiling, unfeeling face dissolved with a smile. He’d won.Without time to waste, and with Kihara in his arms, Ajax ran off the roads and into the mountains. His mate weighed nothing in his arms, and was hardly an inconvenience, or deterrent to his speed. Asher screamed with fury, the panic traveling up his throat, clogging his airways. The men charged at him and he swiped and stabbed at every single one of them, not holding back his strengths. He needed to get to Kihara; the only thought that rang loud in his head. He couldn’t let Ajax have her, knowing where he was t
THE MISJUDGED LUNA 85
Ajax’s men drew their weapons, axes and blades glinting in the air like the shine of cruel death. Leila turned to Kihara hastily. “Whatever you do, you’ll stay with me okay?” Kihara nodded, her hands tightening on her gun. I have this, she thought to herself, she ought to be fine. Asher from a few feet away glanced back at them quickly, he shared a look with Brody and Leila and they seemed to understand a they both nodded. To kihara, his eyes softened and seemed to tell, ‘be safe.’ Kihara nodded at him. She did not plan to let any of these men get close to her.And they were a lot of them. They were beyond outnumbered. The men were ordinary humans, and against a dozen well trained wolves were like an army of ants, but ants that they were, they crawled towards them from every angle, swarming in as if they could choke off the air. The men were way more than preoccupied in a few seconds, battling claws with blades and axes. The wailing sound of men broke through the peaceful mountainous

Sebastian listened quietly the messenger, a drink in his hand illuminating the colorful swirl of candlelight it captured. The messengers words echoed softly through his ear drums. After the man was done, Sebastian nodded. “You’re dismissed.”The man backed out of the room, his legs were about to cross the threshold when Sebastian called. “Don’t go back to the woods Jerry. I doubt that our boy will be anymore useful after today.”***Everything was set for their journey to Ever-moon. Transportation and envoy and the gifts Kihara had prepared for ever-moon waited downstairs while the Alpha couples exchanged swift words with each other.“You know why I worry Kihara, it is dangerous.” Asher was saying, the veins in his temples bulging as he emphasized on the word dangerous. Kihara was having none of it as she stood glaring at him with her hands crossed above her chest. ‘I don’t see how that is an issue.” They had had this conversation last night, and the night before, still, Asher was in

Kihara had never been to the pack dungeon. She was not even aware that a place like such existed, but as it turned out, the underground bunker was not the only thing underground. The dungeon was built a bit off ways from the pack, the only thing that lead to it was well like construction with stairs. The dungeon wasn’t well kept, unlike many areas of the pack, because it was hardly used. Asher told kihara the last time it had been opened, it was used by his father, and now him, to lock up Justin.Kihara climbed down the narrow stairs that led down to the dungeon with her heart feeling heavy and in her throat, Asher right behind her. At the bottom of the stairs, the dungeon opened up to9 a big musty space. The air was hot and drier around here. Directly in the middle of the room, two iron cages sat beside each other, and Justin sat in one, on a stool, his hands and knees bound. The cages looked ordinary to Kihara, there was no reason why they should be able to hold a werewolf, Kihara w

Kihara’s honeymoon lasted three nights. Three good nights of no worries, three nights of forgetting that there was even anything to be worried about. It ended too quickly for her liking, but they needed to get back to their duties, and Kihara needed to start hers. The bodies they found in the woods had been buried properly. In the days Kihara and Asher remained completely indoors, the only time they opened their doors was to receive food, and in their absence, Victor had taken charge. He’d put off alerting human authorities about the bodies in the woods and for good reason. No human police would not believe that the work had been done by a pack of werewolves. It’d be like putting handcuffs on their own wrists and walking to the police station to be locked behind bars, not that any police bar or handcuff could hold a werewolf. Apart from burying the bodies, there were many other issues. The pack had grown hesitant of stepping outside pack house boundaries. Members who had human jobs
