All Chapters of POWERS OF THE MOON BEARER: Chapter 101 - Chapter 110

A laugh, sinister and chilling, echoed the clearing. Malachai stepped into the moonlight, his silver eyes glistening with evil.“Did you really think I wouldn’t find you?” he said, his tone mockingly sweet.The woman stepped in front of Luna, her hands raised as if to say she meant to protect the girl. “You can’t have her, Malachai.”Malachai’s smile widened. “Oh, but I already do.”He snapped his fingers, and the shadows formed into a shape—a bound and gagged villager writhing against the dark tendrils.Luna’s heart sank. “No…”“Choose, Luna,” Malachai said, pouring on the cruelty. “Either come with me willingly, or watch them die.”The pack tensed to spring, but the woman raised a hand. “Wait,” she said, her voice steady even though the tension crackled. “There’s more at stake here than you realize.”Coming forward Luna spoke, her voice trembling. “Why are you doing this ? What do you want from me ? ”Malachai's expression turned icy. "Your power. Your light. Without it, the moon ca

Luna stirred, feeling her head hitting and vision blurred. The air was thick with the smell of an explosion, magic still permeating it. She raised herself up causing a cough to shake her, then looked around the clearing.Selene remained on the altar, her body encircled by a glimmering blue aura. Jax and Alec lay a little distance away, moaning softly as they regained consciousness. Malachai stood at the clearing's perimeter, his silver eyes burning with rage while he caught his breath.“Luna!” Alec shouted, pulling himself to his feet and running toward her. “Are you all right?”"I'm fine," Luna said, her voice trembling however. "What about Selene?"Jax stumbled over, wincing. “She’s glowing. That can’t be normal.”“No,” Malachai’s voice sliced through the tension, sharp and venomous. “It’s not normal. It’s perfect.”Luna shot him a glare, her fear transforming into anger. "You did this, didn't you? You’re trying to make her feel bad!"Malachai laughed softly but darkly, his face twi

Alec paused, as if he were selecting his words very carefully. "Luna, you and I… there’s a connection. Something deeper than I can put into words. It's the reason I've always felt such a strong urge to protect you."Luna’s breath hitched. “A bond? Are you saying we’re—”“Soulmates,” Alec confirmed, his voice steady.Selene stared at him, shocked. "And you're just now telling her this? Alec, what the hell?""That's not so easy," Alec said, defensively. "I didn't see it that way until now. The moon showed me in the Lunar Chamber."Luna’s head spun with the confusion of a million questions wanting to pour forth from her. Another growl snapped her back to the present, however."We need to move," Alec said, urgently. "Malachai won't stop until he has Selene, and his Pack is crawling all over the forest."Selene’s aura flared again, but this time it was weaker than before. “If he wants me, let him come fight me himself.”"Don't be reckless!" Alec snapped, frustration boiling over. "You are

Alec pulled Luna's hand, his voice calm yet demanding. "We're leaving. Right now."The woman stepped back into the shadows, her parting words doing so. "It is in your hands, Luna, to keep the balance. Do not allow the darkness to wear you out in this way".As they ran to the open space of their territory, Luna’s mind was filled with questions, doubts and fears. But there was one thing that was clear: the match wasn't over.And the second time they encountered Malachai, running would be out of the question.The group barely returned to the safety of their territory when the forest erupted with sinister howls. Alec paced in the clearing by the fire pit, his nervous energy had him moving much more than normal. His wolf energy crackled in the air, right then as he was very frustrated.“We can’t keep running,” Alec growled, his golden eyes flashing. “The Pack of Malachi is closing in and every moment we waste, we’re losing the ground on.”Selene crossed her arms and leaned against a tree,

She looked up at Luna and said in a voice that was quiet yet steady, ”It’s not a matter of liking it Jax. It is the matter of doing what needs to be done”.Alec paced for a while and then turned to her, his face more than angry but also desperate. "Necessary? Luna, losing your connection to the moon—your power—it's not just a solution; it's a death sentence for who you are."Selene crossed her arms and leaned against a tree. "She's not wrong, Alec. Without the moon's power, you won't just lose your strength, Luna. You'll lose your identity as a wolf."Luna shook her fists, attempting to steady her shaking hands. “I know what it means. I’ve thought about it ever since... ever since the relic bonded with me. If this is the price to stop Malachai, then it’s worth it.”“Worth it?” Alec echoed, his voice rising. “Do you hear yourself? You’re speaking like you’re expendable.”Jax’s tone was sharp. “We all are scars when Malachai stops. Or do you think we’ll come out of this no one SCAR?”“T
