The Broken Luna Chapter 21: The Stranger
The man struggled to breathe, his veins protruding out from his neck. My rescuer promised him death if he set a foot back inside our room and then he threw him out like he weighed nothing more than a feather. I was in the corner with Eion, with nowhere to go, fighting to breathe against the now rapid pains from over exertion. Sweat broke down my back and my vision was a bit blurry. We were cornered. I didn't know him either or his intentions. He could be even worse than the man he just threw out and he could kill the both of us without even breathing too hard. I needed to escape and get us to safety but the pain was too much. I couldn't move as fast as I could. He finally looked down on us. He was a tall hulking man, with long thick brown hair and eyes so brown they shone golden. "You might as well stay. Out there isn't any much better. I assure you, he and his friends are going to get retribution if you set foot outside with that boy,” he grumbled in clear annoyance when he saw me

I woke up to the soft warm orange glow of light, night had fallen and it was now evening. The camp was a bit quieter as everyone was either eating dinner or settling down for bed. The dancing orange glow of fires outside were lit once more and scattered through the forest like fireflies. I shifted a bit and a startling realisation gripped me that sent me flying up out of the bed in panic and patting the space beside me hysterically. Eion wasn't beside me, he was gone. The space beside me was empty and cold. I had fallen asleep for Moon Goddess knows how long and I didn't even feel him being moved from beside me. Fear almost spilled my heart. I turned and almost jumped out of my skin when I saw him sitting on a chair in front of the table next to the bed with the lamp lit. A scream was stifled in my throat and I breathed out heavily in relief. I then remembered the events earlier and why there was a very large, bearded man in our room. The light from the lamp lit up Yuhan's hair, a

I did feel a lot safer with Yuhan. I woke up one morning to a thick comforter thrown over us to keep us warm from the incoming cold. He stayed and made sure we were fine. As the time wore on I came to trust him a bit more each day. He became a fixture in our lives. I didn't know how I could have gotten so lucky. The men didn't show up ever again, even when he wasn't present. They were afraid of him and any retribution he would meet. We were off limits and I couldn't be more thankful for my guardian angel. Overtime we got closer. He was a friend. My stomach had also grown. It was so large I couldn't believe it most times. I could no longer see my feet and getting up was a whole task. I was now waddling around near my due date. I also had to place a hand on my hip to move about. I thought of a few names but I haven't settled on anything yet. When they are born and I get to see them then I'll know what to name them. I was sitting on the top steps with Eion, taking in the cool

"I'm sorry—I am so sorry," I sobbed, kneeling beside her. The sound of her labored, uneven breathing became scarcely audible over the erratic pounding of my heart, but it was there. That's all that mattered. "Please, stay with me. Help is coming, I promise," I told her. My voice broke, coming out strained and desperate. I was desperate, though. How could I not be? I was desperate to save my mate, desperate for this to be just a horrible nightmare, desperate for her to be okay. Her body lay before me, bloodied and mangled. The ground beneath her was gradually becoming saturated, stained by the crimson liquid seeping from the open wound on her side. The mixture of blood, dirt, and sweat that marred my face was long forgotten. I didn't care that I was naked or that my leg had been broken. None of that mattered now; nothing mattered except for her. The sight of her beautiful heart-shaped face, which was slowly turning a ghastly shade of white, caused pain like nothing I had ever fel
Last Updated : 2024-10-29The Broken Luna Chapter 25: A pack and a Second chance?
It has been four years since I left that orphanage and I joined a pack. My kids and I were safe and we lived happily. The small pack named Lapis Lazuli accepted us without any doubt. Alpha and Luna treated my kids as their grandchildren and promised me if they pass away, Eion will inherit the pack. Due to birth complications and most of the pack members were elderly, my kids were the joy of everyone. The pack was located far away from big packs. In fact it’s close to the sea. Often Eion would swim and sometimes fish along with the aged Alpha. Today, the sky was grey and there was constantly threatening rain. It seemed fitting, however, as if the Moon Goddess wanted to cry with us. I for one, had already cried. I cried more than I thought anyone could. Rogues didn't attack packs anymore; we had been at peace for years now.Why her?Erica, who was a granny that took in and shared her house with us, was a simple woman, yet loved by so many in the pack. In fact, we were an all around si

“Eion is my son,” I told him. “From my previous mate.”Tyga stared at Eion and then smiled. “I’m your mom’s new mate kiddo,” he answered. Eion stared back at him and into me. Questions in his were apparent and I’m sure he’ll demand an answer from me later. "It was a beautiful ceremony, Mathus," Tyga said to my Alpha. Apparently Alphas referred to each other by first name. "But I seem to have found something much more beautiful, and we will be needing to return home now," he explained to Alpha Mathus.Alpha Mathus nodded in understanding and smiled kindly at me. He was happy for me. "Of course, Tyga. I know you'll treat her well," Alpha Mathus replied. I hoped he was right, because I wasn't so sure.Then a whimper got my attention. "Mommy...you're not leaving me and Chea are you?" Eion asked softly. My heart ached for a moment and I tilted my head up to face Tyga, the sudden realization of everything finally hitting me."With all due respect...Alpha Tyga," I started, almost acci

Tyga glanced over at me and furrowed his eyebrows in worry. "You don't look like you feel well," he stated very simply. His statements were always so straight-forward and lacking of much emotion. His emotions were visible, they just weren't expressive."I don't feel well. What's happening?" I asked with a groan as I closed my eyes and buried my face in my hands.Tyga chuckled again. How was this funny?"You must be car sick. I forgot you're not used to roads like this," he explained.Car sick? That was an actual thing?"Don't worry Aine, we're almost there," he said calmly and squeezed my knee gently as a reassurance. My cheeks turned a shade of deep pink hearing him speak my name. It was beautiful coming from his mouth, and my queasiness suddenly didn't feel quite as bad.The car came to a stop again and my eyes shot open. I gasped, taking in my surroundings once more. We were in a clearing at the top of an enormous mountain. Beautiful log style homes surrounded us, including a very

After Tyga’s mother finally released me from her relentless hug, I took a deep breath and looked up at both of his parents with my best smile."It's so nice to meet the both of you," I told them sweetly, unsure of what else to say at this moment. It was hard enough getting used to my mate, much less the rest of these new people.I’m scared. My ex in-laws treated me like garbage back then. I hope they’re not like them.Seeming pleased with my greeting his parents both took their seats. "My name is Veronica darling, and this is my grump of a mate, Henry," Tyga's mother explained to me with a giggle. I nodded to her with the same beaming smile. “And this adorable child is your daughter?” she asked and stared at Chea who was eating chocolate chips. She picked her up and showered her with a kiss. “Y-yes, Luna,” I replied.“She’s adorable!” Veronica squealed. “Henry, we have an instant granddaughter! Finally.”Alpha Henry smiled at his mate and then looked at me."We're so excited to have

The Broken Luna Epilogue
Five years later…"Mom, please don't feed Zero so much candy, you're not the one tucking him in tonight." I told my mom in a plea, she was feeding my youngest with candy all day long and I couldn't deal with one and yet almost like three fits tonight when Zero doesn’t sleep. My mom looked sheepishly."Sorry honey, you know it comes from a place of love." She left Zero's room, leaving me in here with my son who was all dirty with chocolate. Zero was still five but he was too tall for his age. Chea was already thirteen and Eion already in his age of studying to take over the throne. "Chea, sweetheart, can you please clean Zero’s face? I’ll go and get your dad, dinner's almost ready and I need to supervise the setting of the table before the guests arrive." "Sure thing mom,” she answered as she grabbed some wipes and cleaned her brother’s hands and mouth, leaving Zero’s room as cheerful as always.“I’m going to look after Zero, Mom,” Eion said as he entered Zero's room. He swept his
The Broken Luna Chapter 115: King and Queen
My sweaty hands clenched and unclenched repeatedly, while my hammering heart was threatening to burst through my chest. Fleetingly, I looked around behind the trees, observing the entire werewolf community observing how Oishin was standing beside Yuhan and waiting for me. We were going to complete the coronation together and to become proclaimed as the King and Queen of Wolves."You're nervous, Aine. Breathe, please." Anne said with a small laugh, she was hiding with me. She and Mom helped me get ready, my curls were cascading down my back in waves and the light makeup helped in hiding my heated cheeks. The dress was my favorite part of the outfit though, it had to flash purity and be a little fluffy. I chose a white dress, and slightly conservative style, something you can see royals wearing giving me a natural, but elegant vibe.Feeling an intense gaze hitting me, I searched the crowd of werewolves and found my children looking at me. Eion, as the heir and the first prince, was we
The Broken Luna Chapter 114: Just Us
Sitting in the darkness of my room, I looked out of the window while I was sitting on a rocking chair gazing at the castle nearby under the light of the moon. It was crazy to think that I'd be living there in a few days. My life was a roller coaster. There were ups and downs to almost making me lose hope of becoming happy again. After many trials thrown on me, I survived it all. I gave up my pride, just to be with the person who was all my first. The person I never expected to be my soon-to-be husband, the king. Today had been incredible, the chatter in the living room never died down and I'd laughed more than I had. Anne was alive and I couldn’t ask for more. Finally, Tempest was a safe place now for both wolves, in packs or prefered to be alone. A knock on my door shook me out of reminiscing, as I walked towards it I tried not to fall. It was so dark in here and some of my clothes were still on the floor from when I changed into my dress to my pregnancy nighties. Mustering up th
The Broken Luna Chapter 113: Reunited
“Yes! Yes! I’ll marry you,” I said with tears in my eyes. I have been waiting for this my whole life. Oishin was smiling. He took the ring, a white gold ring laced with small blue diamond and at the centre was a white square shaped with Diamond. It looked like his family heirloom but it was slightly modified. He then inserted it in my ring finger.“I’m glad I finally replaced the ring I gave you years ago. And I’m sorry it took me so long,” he said. “Silly,” I said. “I don’t care what kind of ring you would have given me as long as there’s you and me,” I replied as I watched the ring. “Soon when Eion is old enough to marry his mate, I’ll pass this ring down to him as our family heirloom.”“Whatever you want, baby,” Oishin replied and kissed me on my head.After the night Oishin proposed to me, we decided to honor every wolf who fought against the Elders before the preparations of our wedding and the handing down of the castle to him. East Wolves were actually the descendants of the
The Broken Luna Chapter 112: Will you marry me?
According to Charlotte, Higan started her mission to restore the kingdom. It wasn’t even a month when she mysteriously appeared with Charlotte. And since that day, conflict between Elders and the Alphas started to become apparent. Everyone wanted to proclaim Oishin as the rightful king but the Elders denied it. Wars from every part of Tempest ignited between those against the councils and against the establishment of the old Monarchy. When Higan threatened the Elders with what she collected to Ezekiel, that was the last straw before the Elders fully gave up their position. Whatever the masked woman did, it's anybody's guess. According to Charlotte, Higan or the mask woman was someone who had been bringing justice to the werewolves. She also had been betrayed and when I asked Charlotte about it, she would only smile and said Higan doesn’t want to talk about her past life. “Penny for your thoughts?” Oishin said, placing an arm across my waist, holding me .I glazed sideways at him
The Broken Luna Chapter 111: True Royal
I shifted mid-air as I was running towards my mate. Everyone must have seen the panic and impatience, almost desperation in my face as I was struggling to run towards him. It didn’t bother me even if some wolves were snapping towards me. My action was enough to tell them how much I loved my mate.Ezekiel kicked Oishin’s wolf and laughed. “Let her be. Let her reunite with his dying mate,” he said, laughing.I invested so many years in my life hating my mate, I wouldn’t let him go, heck.let alone him die. I need him. My children needed him. I want us as a whole family. And now my mate's in danger.I shifted back to my human form and lifted Oishin’s head. My eyes immediately went to Oishin, to check his pulse and breathe. His wounds were still bleeding and it hadn't healed much, making me worry."Shin..." I whispered, my eyes already filling with tears as with shaky hands, I started checking his pulse. I tried it on his wrist and when I felt nothing, I panicked even more. My heartbeat
The Broken Luna Chapter 110: Saving Aine
Aine’s Point of ViewA hand on the shoulder that's exactly from where everything starts. Like in a horror movie, a murder story, but apparently, and rather ironically, I felt like it was where my life would start to end.I couldn't see my face but I am quite certain that all the blood would have drained from there. All sorts of negative thoughts came into my mind. This was too good to be true. I should have known.But then I reminded myself of the promise I had made to myself and I told my heart that I would not drain my energy by worrying. Instead, I'll drain it all out in fighting.Fight for myself. Not for anyone else this time. It's just me now, the real fight for my life. Taking a deep breath, I curled my fists, ready to attack as I turned around to see the very flustered face of our very own Patricia and a woman beside her wearing a face mask. Only her eyes were visible, an eyes that I never expected to witness. Her right eye was turquoise blue. It was glowing even though I kn
The Broken Luna Chapter 109: Rescue
(Spit POV’s)Aine’s Point of ViewWhen I first met Oishin as a mate, I was so happy, I felt like my fairytale had finally come to a beautiful end. But I was so wrong.I was so wrong because I didn't realise that it wasn't the end of a beautiful fairy tale, but the beginning of a harsh reality. He cheated on me.And then there was Tyga, I thought he was perfect but then I was wrong. He was a wolf in sheep’s clothing. And my reality became harsher than it could be. Fate must have been fun playing on me. Maybe it was because of the fact that I survived despite what fate threw at me and that I refused to give up and became mindless feral.Way back when I was younger, I have always wished for a knight in shining armour, the one that’ll be able to save me. To me, all mates were like everyone, sweet and loving. Yeah I used to believe that when I was a kid. But then life happened and the truth slapped me in the face so hard that I couldn't get back up. I kept falling. I fell, again, hoping
The Broken Luna Chapter 108: Plan
Tyga didn't let me finish my sentence and grabbed my jaw, again. His eyes burning with craze and determination. "I'm not listening to your bullshit, I will never believe you since Victor succeeded in transferring you the leadership! This has cleared all doubts. If he can, then you can! Pass it to me and I will set you free. Think about it. No pain. No struggles.”One thing that I understood from what he said was that he was lying. This bastard was one hell of a liar. I was starting to think that fate was dysfunctional since they gave me this idiot mate. Thankfully Anne interfered and I got back with Oishin. I laughed so hard that I clenched my stomach and his face turned a deep shade of red in humiliation.“Don’t you ever understand the word fuck off and no?”Tyga lifted his fist in the air and punched me in the face making my jaw snap and my cheeks rammed into my teeth, making them bleed.Fuck!I cupped my cheek and spit out the blood. My jaw and cheeks throbbed in pain and my head
