All Chapters of Love Under Blood Moon : Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Elena’s Point of ViewElena sat at her usual spot in the university café, a steaming latte in front of her and her laptop open to a half-written email. The hustle and bustle of students surrounded her, but her mind was elsewhere. Despite her best efforts to focus, her thoughts kept circling back to Ren.The evening they had spent together lingered in her mind like the melody of a favorite song. The warmth of his smile, the intensity of his gaze, the way he had listened so intently to her ramblings about mythology - it had all felt so… effortless.Except now, a week later, she realized there was one glaring issue.“I still don’t have his number,” she muttered under her breath, her cheeks flushing at the thought.“What was that?” Sara’s voice cut through her thoughts as she slid into the chair across from her, a bright smile on her face.Elena blinked, startled. “Oh, nothing. Just talking to myself.”Sara raised an eyebrow, setting her bag down and pulling out her phone. “Uh-huh. Talkin

Elena’s Point of ViewElena adjusted the hem of her dress for what felt like the hundredth time that afternoon, glancing at her reflection in the office window. The long, flowing green fabric was simple yet elegant, with a subtle V-neckline that added just enough flair without being too bold. It was casual, but it made a statement -exactly what she had wanted.“You look amazing,” Sara had said as they stood in the boutique the day before, inspecting the dress in the mirror. “Trust me, if he doesn’t notice you in this, he’s a fool.”Elena had laughed nervously, her mind already racing with thoughts of how today might unfold. She hadn’t admitted it to Sara, but she had picked the dress with Ren in mind. She wanted to look her best, to remind him of the woman he had walked away from without asking for a phone number or setting up another meeting.Now, standing at the front of the seminar room, she felt a mix of anticipation and nerves. The room was filling quickly, students and visitors

Elena’s Point of ViewElena walked briskly across the campus, her heart racing with a mixture of excitement and nerves. The late afternoon sunlight cast long shadows on the stone pathways, but she barely noticed. All she could think about was him.Ren.She couldn’t stop the small, triumphant smile that tugged at her lips. He had agreed to meet her tonight, and for once, she felt like she was in control of this strange, electrifying connection between them.As soon as she was out of the campus gates, she pulled out her phone and dialed Sara.“Hey, El! What’s up?” Sara’s cheerful voice answered after the second ring.“Sara, you’re not going to believe this,” Elena said, her words tumbling out in a rush.“Uh-oh, I know that tone,” Sara teased. “Did something happen with him?”“Yes!” Elena said, her excitement bubbling over. “He showed up to my seminar again today. And get this - I asked him out for a drink.”There was a pause on the other end, followed by a delighted squeal. “Oh my god,

Elena’s Point of ViewThe night air was cool and crisp, the stars scattered like diamonds across the sky. They walked slowly, side by side, their footsteps echoing softly against the quiet campus.Elena stole a glance at Ren, her heart beating a little faster each time his shoulder brushed hers. There was something about the way he carried himself - calm yet commanding, quiet yet intense - that made her both comfortable and exhilarated in his presence.When they reached the campus gates, she stopped, turning to face him. Her breath hitched slightly as their eyes met, his gaze warm and unwavering.“Thank you for tonight, Ren,” she said softly, her lips curving into a small smile. “I had a wonderful time.”“So did I,” he replied, his voice low and sincere.For a moment, they stood there, the world around them fading into the background. The quiet hum of the street, the rustle of leaves in the breeze - it all felt distant compared to the magnetic pull between them.Elena hesitated, her h

Ren’s Point of ViewRen stood at the edge of the pack’s northern border, the cold wind biting against his skin as he surveyed the dense forest beyond. The warriors stationed here had reported movement - a flicker of shadows, the sound of snapping branches - but so far, no concrete threat had emerged.His beta, Kael, approached from the treeline, his expression grim. “Nothing definitive,” Kael said. “Whoever - or whatever - it is, they’re careful. They know how to stay out of sight.”Ren nodded, his jaw tightening. “But they’re close enough to make a statement.”Kael grunted in agreement, his gaze sweeping the horizon. “It’s like they’re testing us, pushing to see how far they can go before we react.”Ren’s wolf growled softly in the back of his mind, restless and uneasy. We’re being watched.“I don’t like it,” Ren admitted, his voice low. “Keep the patrols tight. No one crosses the border without our knowing.”Kael nodded. “Already on it. But there’s something else you need to know.”
