Chapter 21

Third POV

Elara’s eyelids fluttered, her consciousness teetering on the edge of a deep, dreamless sleep. She could feel her past, the memories she had so carefully buried, lurking just beyond the veil of sleep, waiting for her to lose her grip so they could slip through the cracks. They were always there, haunting her at the edge of her thoughts, ready to seize any moment of weakness and drag her back to a time she would rather forget. But before she could succumb to the darkness, a commanding voice cut through the silence, yanking her back to the present.

Her heart raced as she jerked upright, her eyes wide with fear and confusion. She scanned the dimly lit chamber, her mind scrambling to make sense of her surroundings. The cold stone walls seemed to close in on her, the shadows deepening as her breathing quickened. But then her gaze landed on him—Solas. He was sitting by the pond, his back to her, his fingers lazily tracing patterns in the water.

  • The Moon God's Bride    The Search for Solas

    Chapter 29Third POVElara ran her fingers through her damp hair, now freshly washed and braided, as she stood near the edge of the pond. The familiar sense of guilt still weighed heavily on her after the bath, and despite feeling physically renewed, her mind was troubled. She had made up her mind to apologize to Solas for her behavior the previous day, but now she couldn't seem to find him.Where could he be? she wondered as she glanced around the cavern.Pulling the simple, flowing dress she had found from the neatly folded pile onto her body, she felt a determination to put things right. Even though Solas had tormented her with his coldness and power, he had never gone beyond what she could handle. His care, hidden behind a mask of indifference, was becoming clearer now that she was rested and fed. She realized that she may have misunderstood him, and after all these centuries of isolation, maybe he, too, was struggling.“Solas?” she called, her voice soft at first, hesitant, then

  • The Moon God's Bride    Shadows and Sin

    Chapter 28Third POVSolas sat in the corner of his dimly lit chamber, his eyes never leaving the form of Elara, who lay curled up in his bed. He had kept to the shadows, hidden behind the dark veil that cloaked him, but his gaze had not wavered, watching her sleep through the long, quiet hours of the night. Her chest rose and fell with each breath, soft little exhales escaping from her parted lips, and Solas found himself leaning forward slightly, almost without realizing it.She was serene, entirely at peace in her sleep. The lines of tension that had marred her face earlier were now gone, replaced by a sweet, almost innocent calm. Her brow furrowed occasionally, her lips curling into a faint smile at times, and Solas couldn’t help but wonder what she was dreaming about. Was it something pleasant? Was it him? The thought sent a shiver through him, one he couldn’t explain.Why am I so enamored by her?It was a question that had haunted him since the moment he laid eyes on her, and to

  • The Moon God's Bride    A Glimmer of Understanding

    Chapter 27Third POVElara awoke to a faint sliver of light filtering through the darkened cave, its soft glow reflecting off the still pond. She blinked, adjusting her eyes to the gentle shimmer as she slowly sat up, confusion momentarily clouding her thoughts. The last thing she remembered was collapsing into sleep, her body aching and sore from the torment of hunger and exhaustion. But now, as she stretched her limbs, she felt nothing but strength, as though the fatigue and pain had been swept away by some unseen force.She rose to her feet, expecting her muscles to protest, to feel the cold stiffness from sleeping on the hard stone slab. But there was none of that. No soreness, no discomfort. Just an overwhelming sense of energy coursing through her veins, as if she were somehow renewed.Elara frowned, running her hands over her arms, her brow furrowed in thought. How is this possible? She had been on the brink of collapse the day before, barely able to think straight, let alone fe

    Chapter 26Third POVSelene sat atop her celestial throne, bathed in the pale glow of her moon as its silver light poured through the open arches of her ethereal home. She watched the waves below, feeling their pulse as they rose and crashed against the shorelines of a distant village. The tides were erratic tonight—wild, untamable—and no matter how hard she focused, she couldn’t subdue them. Her brow furrowed in frustration as she tried once more to ease the waters, her divine power coaxing them into serenity.But it was no use.A heavy sigh escaped her lips as realization settled over her. This wasn’t nature acting on its own. No, the tides were responding to something darker—someone darker. She clenched her fists as her suspicions grew certain.Solas.Her brother. The mere thought of him sent a bitter chill through her veins. It had been centuries since they had last crossed paths, but his presence lingered like a shadow on her realm, dark and consuming. He was still there, beneath

  • The Moon God's Bride    Embrace of the Abyss

    Chapter 25Third POVElara reveled in the hazy remnants of her fond memories, lingering on the comforting images from the village—the farmers’ market, the warm smiles exchanged over fresh produce, the laughter of children in the square. It was a fleeting moment of solace, a time when life was simpler and unburdened. But as she sank deeper into her slumber, those happy images began to fade, replaced by a chilling void.The darkness came swiftly, like a predator stalking its prey, creeping closer with every breath. Elara felt its weight pressing down on her, suffocating her. She couldn’t see, couldn’t hear—just the overwhelming sense of emptiness gnawing at her core. Panic surged through her as the shadows loomed closer, tightening their grip around her fragile form. Her body trembled in the dream, helpless against the suffocating abyss, her mind screaming for escape that never came.Just when she thought she could bear no more, a sudden wave of warmth enveloped her. It was like being wr

  • The Moon God's Bride    Shadows of Desire

    Chapter 24Third POVSolas stood in the shadows, his dark form barely distinguishable against the cavern walls. His eyes never left Elara as she lay on the cold stone slab, shifting restlessly. He watched her, his gaze sharp and unyielding, as she struggled to find sleep. The exhaustion was evident in every line of her body—her limbs heavy, her eyelids fluttering shut only to open again moments later.And yet, there was a stubbornness in her, a quiet resilience that refused to give in, even to the pull of sleep. Solas found himself intrigued, as he so often did when it came to Elara. What was it about her that made him linger in the shadows, watching her every move with such intensity?He had never been one for such idle curiosity. He had seen countless mortals, all of them weak in one way or another, succumbing to their emotions, their fears, their mortality. Yet there was something different about Elara. Something that made it impossible for him to turn away.Finally, after what seem
