2024-10-29 19:42:56I would like to thank all of you who stuck with me through this series of books, and even those of you who have only read this book (or just two of the three).
It has taken me a year to work through all three books, but I was determined to do my best to end the series on a sweet note.
If you enjoyed this book and haven't read the other two in the series, please check out Under the Pale Moon (book 1) and Under the Blue Moon (book 2). Both are here on GN.
If you'd like another BL book, check out Subduing the Alpha or I am Not Your Love Story which is also on GN. Please note that Subduing the Alpha has two versions, the completed BL version and the hetro version which is still being edited for a female lead.
And, if you're tired of romance stories and would like some adventure and fantasy, please check out Adventures of the Crown. Book 1 is completed and book 2 is ongoing. Both are on GN and MN.
Also, if you liked my book please leave a review and a gem! I would be eternally grateful if you did!
Much love, as always, Yukiro.

Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride My Return
I knew from the moment a particular group of werewolves had asked for my return that something had been off with them, but I had agreed to come to their world all the same. What I hadn’t expected was the greeting I received. Another of their kind was trying to prevent me from carrying out the promise, but it hadn’t been just any werewolf. Their glowing aura told me all I needed to know.This was one of the Moon Goddess’ stars. A spirit much like her, but not at all like myself. They claim to be Gods, whereas beings like me ARE Gods. I keep my expression neutral as I step through the black hole and gaze at the scene before me. The spirit and three of his friends are here, trying to ward off the angry souls that escaped through the same black hole as I did.I sigh before snapping my fingers, bringing them back under control again.As soon as the scene quietens down again, I return my gaze to the Star-Spirit and utter, “to summon me, then to
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride Found You
With a year given to me, I don’t want to waste a single second of it. However, the one named Rem hasn’t had his fill of me yet. He quickly blocks my way, shooting me death glares that hold no effect on me at all. However, out of respect for the promise I just made, I remain patient with him.“You can’t go out there and just fuckin’ do whatever!” He yells at me. I arch a brow but wait for him to finish. “You have to promise you won’t disturb the peace! No one can know what you fuckin’ are, got it!?”Oh. Was that all he was worried about?“Do not worry. None of the mortals will know me. I only plan to deal with my rival, and no other,” I tell the Hunter. He sighs and looks away from me, clearly unhappy at having just lost his mate to the unknown. The other two are silent as we speak, but I can tell from their expressions they are worried.“Not a single one!” Rem warns me, th
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride Not a Bird
It seems the man Maxen lives not too far off from here, which is probably a good thing. After making sure these interlopers don’t need me for anything else; which, of course, they did. It seems the Hunter is now a faux Alpha of his mate’s pack, so he has to deal with that on top of his Hunter duties, and of course, the other two are off to speak with the Spirits. With them gone, I finally can relocate Maxen.His home seems to be connected to many homes. I’ve seen nothing like this before in my life! To live so tightly together in one building cannot be healthy for these humans, can it? Then again, their ingenuity has always been quite good for mortals.Before I descend, I realise something. The first thing that comes to mind is that I need to encourage this man to battle me. If Hafgan’s soul attaches, it will be easier to convince him, but there is the risk that it will attach too tightly to the mortal which could cause permanent damage to Maxen
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride Morning Blues
I don’t go far from where Maxen lives, but I am quite happy to explore the new world as a human. Creating the new ‘money’ thing with my powers is no easy feat, however, as I am so used to using the old world silver and cold coins, yet they do seem to have similar currency even if it looks different.I don’t need to use the money to get what I want. It is easy enough to make mortals give me anything I demand, but I promised those busy-bodies from before that I would fit in. So, after a couple of ‘magic tricks' to get a hold of some money, I could easily afford a meal and a place to stay didn’t come hard to find either.What I did notice were the cute little plush toys of my bloodline in the shops. I almost wanted to buy one, but I didn’t think my father would approve of them. Or rather, he wouldn’t approve of me having them. He would probably be pleased humans still worshipped us in some roundabout way.As soon as m
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride Friends And Boys
“What… what did you do?” Max asks as the surrounding glow vanishes into the void from where I summoned it. His surprise at everything I do is quite amusing. As I put the pieces of chess away, I reply, “it is the promise of our bond made physical.” Max’s face burns hot as he hears my words. Is there something weird about what I just said? That’s what he wanted, right? To be friends since we are both boys? It must be new-world human slang, but it’s nothing I can’t handle. Besides, he might agree to fight me for real if we become closer friends with one another. “Is there an issue, Max?” I ask, tilting my head to the side as I consider his expression. He shakes his head at me but makes no sound of response. Thinking nothing of it, I nod and stand up to get a better look at my new home for the year. This will be such a small place to live, but I’ll manage. I will be stuck in this human form for much of my time, but it won’t be the worst way to spend a yea
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride Flowers of Death
On the first day in Max’s home, I felt for the first time in my life a coldness that I couldn’t warm away. Not that the weather was cold, but that Max remained shut off from me. I couldn’t put a finger on it, exactly, but there was something there that made me curious about why he acted so coldly towards me, despite his request. He spent the day in the other room, making my bed, he had said. The only other time he came out was to eat and to go to the bathroom. Neither time did he try to speak with me, and any time I tried to speak with him, he would shut me out and tell me to watch TV. Then, night came and he told me to sleep. It felt like I had taken one step forward and ten steps back. There was no progress to be made here, and I needed to figure out what I needed to do to get him to accept this battle. Perhaps cooking him breakfast hadn’t been enough? Starting tomorrow, I would find other ways to make Max open up to me. There had to be something he liked o
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride A Bedtime Kiss
Carrying this man home isn’t as easy as I expected it would be. He keeps touching my face, distracting me every time I even so much as attempt to shift back into my dragon form, but walking back would be impossible. I finally manage to change my form, but even flying back doesn’t come easy as Max shows signs of being ill from the speed and height. By the time I got back to his place, an hour had come and gone. He was still drunk, but he was slowly dozing off, so with luck, he would go to bed and everything would be fine. At least, that was what I had hoped would happen. Truth is stranger than fiction, though, as Max wrapped his arms around my neck, clinging to me as he complained inaudibly while I tried to get him into his bedroom. “Max, go to sleep now. I cannot understand a word you are saying,” I tell him as I let him cling to me. “You’ve had too much to drink.” Another mumble is all I get back from Max. I sigh and once more lift him into my arms.
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride All by Myself
I want so badly to follow Max to his ‘work’, but there would be no hiding who I really am from him. He would see my true form through any illusions I cast, and my human form is only the one, so it isn’t as though I could pretend to be a whole different human. I watch what direction he heads off towards and when he is out of sight, I keep watch of his aura.I’m sure he will be fine. There is no sign of Hafgan anywhere around this city but beyond it? I can’t tell. My sight doesn’t reach everywhere, so I just have to make sure nothing enters the city and we will be fine. At least, I hope so.In truth, I am not even sure Hafgan will give off an aura. I assume he will, much like any other dragon, but being dead changes things. Dragons do not die naturally. They only die in combat, usually against knights, but sometimes against one another. I have never seen a dragon’s soul before.The thought that Hafgan could sneak past me a

Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride The Last Chapter
With lips interlocked, I felt Max’s legs lock around my hips as I slammed hard into him again and again. Last night’s round hadn’t been enough for him, and I was happy to oblige his mood for more. With his stamina, I knew he wouldn’t settle down until I had completely satisfied him. Another moan escaped from his mouth into mine as I felt his fingers tighten in my hair. He was near the edge of his limits again, and so was I. With a few more thrusts deep inside of Max, I felt him tense around my shaft for a moment before a louder moan escaped from him. With his panting and the warmness now against my skin, I knew he had cum. I offered him one more kiss, which he greedily accepted. With him completely in the moment, I thrust in and out of him a few more times before finding my successive release. As I rolled onto my side, I closed my eyes and breathed in heavily. I was exhausted, and all I could wonder was how did Max have so much stamina? I soon felt a warm and cold tingle against my
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride Honeymoon Bonding Ritual
Gazing around the hotel, I couldn’t help but feel somewhat nostalgic about being back in the mortal world. We only had the weekend before our time ran out. There were too many royal duties to take care of, and for only so long, I could leave Harri in charge. Though he wasn’t entirely alone. My father had agreed to act as his advisor.While he wasn’t sure about Harri, he saw no reason to spark up the old rivalry he and Hafgan had once shared. He merely felt it was best to make sure Harri had someone to help him if he needed it.“Are you thinking about home again?” Max said, catching me in my thoughts and calling me out on them. He smirked and shook his head. “They’ll be fine,” he added and ushered me further into the hotel.The mortal realm seemed no different. The slight imbalance had done no lasting damage to how things worked. In fact, the humans had not even noticed any differences, and still did not know about the supernatural beings that shared their space.It was so safe that I
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride Wedding befitting Royalty
As I wait at the royal altar, I gaze over at all the different people standing at the pews. Although I would have not minded making this a small wedding, my father and mother both handled everything. From the location, to how close to old customs we went and to the dress code.To my surprise, even the phoenixes had come to see me marry Max. Thankfully, nothing had gone haywire between our three groups and we were now on decent terms. I wouldn’t say we were friendly, exactly, but everyone was slowly coming around.Harri stood next to me. He looked more nervous than I was, yet I was the one being married. Anything could happen, or could go wrong, someone might have an objection to the union, or someone might try assassinating someone. There were so many variables that could go wrong.As the organs started playing, my heart pounded rapidly against my chest. This was actually it. I had waited so long for this moment, and now it was here.There have been times I thought I would never get m
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride Royal Discussion
I never thought this day would come. I could feel the wave of emotions drown me as the tailor forced me to stand perfectly still while they dressed me for the occasion. All that was now left were the last few preparations, but it seemed like it was taking forever to get them all done.Harri was in the room with me so that the tailor could do the last few adjustments on his clothes, too. He was utterly silent, despite how joyous the occasion was. I tried to reach out to him through my mind, but he shut me out easily. Ever since he and Max had reached maturity, he had become much more standoffish with me.Once the tailor had finished, I ordered them out of the room so that I could speak with Harri privately. If he didn’t want to converse through our minds, then perhaps the issue was something that could only be handled with no one else around.I glanced at the door briefly. We had a little time before we needed to go, so if I was to find out what the issue was, then it had to be now. Tu
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride Confessions
As soon as I stepped through the portal, I spotted Max being swarmed by those who had tried to help us before. I wasn’t sure how they would feel about Max being almost as old now as he had been when he had ‘died’. The last they had seen him, he was nothing but an egg. Yet time hadn’t been so long for them. Zach and Rem’s daughter was still relatively young in comparison. However, she was walking now, at least. She was bright-eyed and full of wonder and if I didn’t know any better, I wouldn’t have known she was a born Spirit. I wondered what her future would be, but with how safe things seemed, I was sure she had a bright life ahead of her. “I can’t believe how big he has gotten already,” Zach said as our group showed Max around various locations around Cardiff to see if any of them sparked any memories of his. “Loona has skyrocketed, but she is only slightly above human average,” he added as he pushed her along in the pram. She might have been old enough to walk, but
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride Max and Harri
It had taken me most of the night to get the message across to the group I had planned to meet us. When I had finished, I went to bed, not knowing how long Max would give me before he decided he had waited long enough. I must have been in such a deep sleep when Max showed up, as I didn’t hear him enter my bedroom. It wasn’t until I heard some faint whispering in my ear that I knew anyone was there. My eyes snapped open while my body went into fight-or-flight mode. Had I not realised who it was, I know I would have lashed out. “S-sorry,” Max softly apologised. “I called your name outside several times, King Arwen, but you were still fast asleep.” With a long sigh, I shook my head. “It’s fine, just be careful, Max,” I replied and rubbed the sleep from my eyes. “It took a little while to get our guides to agree to our visit, so I was awake late.” Max nodded slowly. As I sat up in bed, he twisted around so that he couldn’t see my half-naked body. I rarely
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride Growing Up
With time working differently here than on Earth, it felt like no time had passed at all since Max and Hafgan, who we had renamed Harri, had grown up. I had spent as much time with them as my duties had allowed, and trained them in the ways of dragon-kind, along with Healing-Frost. She had been a wonderful surrogate mother for the twins, and with her on my side, the other ice dragons seemed more at ease and followed her suggestions to work together towards peace. I couldn’t have asked for a better helper than her. Thankfully, Harri had never questioned his new name or brought up any memories from his past life as Hafgan. Both me and Healing-Frost had been keeping a close watch on him and his mind, just to be certain. I wasn’t sure if the phoenix had planned for the two souls to be split into twins, or for Harri to not have his memories, but I was thankful. Harri had his own body once more and had no drive to forcefully take the throne, and that was all that m
Under the Crimson Moon: A Dragon's Pride And it is...
A little over a month later…My feet pound on the stone floor as I make haste towards the hatchery. I can’t believe it is finally time. I thought the egg would never hatch, but now it was finally time. My days have been filled with wondering when this day would finally come.As I entered the hatchery, my feet skidded across the ground until I found my balance again. Most of our eggs have hatched now, but Max’s egg was finally ready. I stared at the door to the cold room. I hesitated for a moment, wondering if I could handle what might be a disappointment if who hatched was not Max at all.Shaking my head, I knew I couldn’t wait any longer. I absolutely must find out who it was that had been reborn. So far, no one could sense the one inside of the egg. It was agony not knowing, but I busied myself with my duties.Opening the door, I felt the coldness hit me. It was like a freezer in here, and only Healing-Frost and the egg could ha
