All Chapters of Bound by the moonlight.: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

I heard a knock at my door."Come in," I replied, and to my surprise, it was Mary. I had not seen her since that night when she had a bit too much to drink."Hey there, I have not seen you in a while, so I thought I should check up on you," she said cheerfully.I yawned and stretched on my bed, feeling quite sleepy. “I'm really tired. Can you give me a few minutes to rest?" I said as I dragged the duvet to cover the rest of my body. "Blue, it's way past noon; I can not do that," she replied, pulling the covers off me.I pleaded, "Please, I'm feeling really tired."She gave me a puppy-dog look and said, "I wish I could leave you to rest, but I have no one else to hang out with, so I need you."Suddenly, a cute little boy rushed into my room."Mommy, Mommy, can I have one of the cupcakes now?" he asked with excitement.Mary smiled at him, her voice gentle. "Not yet, sweetheart, but soon." The little boy pouted and then ran off to play, his disappointment clear on his face.Mary turned

TROY’S POVOne of my guards said, "Alpha, we have got an intruder."I was taken aback by the unexpected news. "What?" I exclaimed, my eyes widening in shock. "Give me a moment," I requested, watching as the guard closed the door behind him.Turning back to Blue, I noticed her condition had worsened. Leaving her alone was the last thing I wanted to do, but duty calls."Blue," I began gently, "I truly wish I could stay by your side right now, but my pack needs my attention. I am sure you understand, being a fellow Alpha."She nodded slightly, her eyes reflecting understanding. "Yes, I understand."I looked at her one last time as I made for the door, Blue’s expression was unreadable. I wondered if it was from the sickness or because she genuinely wished I could spend more time with her. It would be better if it was the latter because I do not want to leave her side either. In my office, I found Xena and another of my trusted guards already present. A quick survey revealed the chaos th

I'm not sure what came over me, but there was something about seeing Troy's well-toned body, the way he laughed, and, I hate to admit it, but when he brought me those flowers and chocolates last night, my heart skipped a beat.At that moment, I kissed him. His lips were soft, and it felt magical, unlike anything I had experienced before.When I pulled away, I saw him, his eyes wide open, staring at me. Suddenly, embarrassment washed over me. I was certain he had not seen this coming, and now he probably thinks I am weird."I am so sorry, I have no idea why I did that," I confessed, my face red with embarrassment.He appeared stunned, unable to speak, I said sorry one last time before I tried to make my way out of the water.Suddenly, I felt a force pulling me back, and I found myself in Troy’s embrace. This time, the kiss was long and passionate, and I could not resist the overwhelming connection between us. I felt like I was melting in his hands, and whatever magic he was using on me

It was in the middle of the night, and I could not ignore the sounds of pain any longer. I debated whether I should go check it out or not. However, my curiosity got the best of me, and I decided to go.I gently pushed my bedroom door open and followed the noise, which led me right into Troy's room. I had a moment of doubt, wondering if I should intrude on his privacy, but heck, my curiousness won.Inside, I found Troy in the grip of some intense pain, seemingly unaware of my presence. His face contorted in agony, and he appeared to be trapped in some kind of trance. At that moment, a dark thought crossed my mind. I could take advantage of his vulnerable state, kill him, and escape before anyone found out but I dismissed the thought.I was about to turn back to my room when I heard Troy mumbling in his sleep like he was begging someone. He kept saying, "Father, please, please don't hurt me."I froze, telling myself to ignore it and let him be, but I could not. Taking a deep breath, I

After talking with Troy, I started to rethink everything. Since I joined the Redmoon pack a few weeks ago, they have turned out to be much nicer than I expected based on the stories I had heard. Before arriving here, I believed that by killing their Alpha and breaking down their pack, I could escape the pain his father had inflicted upon me.However, it was becoming evident that I was not the sole victim of his abuse. Troy, too, had endured the same suffering, growing up with a father who never loved him and subjected him to constant abuse, making him feel utterly unwanted and unloved.I could not relate to the trauma Troy endured, because my father, when he was alive, wanted the best for me and made sure I knew how much he loved me. It must be really sad to grow up the way Troy did. I guess he never knew what it's like to be truly loved. With this thought in mind, I decided to do something nice for him. So, I went downstairs to the kitchen to prepare a delicious meal.I was not exact
