All Chapters of Chasing my Luna : Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Chapter 50: The Siege BeginsThe first wave crashed unto the shore.When Bryan’s troops conquered the fortress gates, the world fell into chaos.Warriors fought in a maelstrom of steel and claws, the scent of blood and smoke heavy in the air. There was an unnatural darkness over the sky, as if the earth itself could sense what was to come.And at the center of it all—Bryan stood, watching.Waiting.For me.I gritted my teeth and stepped forward gripping my sword tightly, slicing through the first tier of enforcers as was mere grass.This wasn’t just a battle.This was war.And I wasn’t going to lose.The Fight for ShadowfangEthan battling at my side, his blade a blur as he hewed through enemies. His motions were graceful, lethal — decades of practice and fury coalescing in every blow.Selene flitted like a shadow, daggers glinting in the now-rising sun, slitting throats before the enemies even had time to scream.Dorian took one group of warriors in the opposite direction along the

Chapter 52: (The Path of No Return)The morning was cold.Too cold.As I stood at the edge of the Shadowfang fortress, looking out over the yawning mouth of the world, it sunk deep down into my bones. It was a path of no return for me.The ruins of the first laboratory, the place where the Order’s experiments had begun, lay deep in the mountains, hidden in the land of the dead. No pack controlled it. No kingdom claimed it.Because no one returned from where they went.And now I was walking directly into it.Ethan didn’t speak, standing next to me. He was steady, grounding, but I knew he hated this plan. I sensed it in the way his fists tensed at his sides, in the way his jaw stayed clenched.Finally, he spoke. “You don’t have to do this by yourself.”I exhaled, shaking my head. “I do.”He glanced at me, his golden eyes shadowed with irritation. “No, you don’t. You just think you do.”I swallowed hard. “Ethan—”“You always do that,” he interrupted, voice gravelly. “You bear the weight

Chapter 54 The Door to OblivionWhen the ancient doors swung open, they emitted a slow guttural noise that made my bones vibrate. That knowing way that the air shifted around the moment I saw the passage—the thickness that pressed against my lungs as if the air itself wanted me turned away.Or keep something in.Ethan gripped my arm more tightly from behind me, his breath shallow and quickening. “Jessica, don’t.”I didn’t look at him. I couldn’t.Because I knew — the second I turned away, the second I hesitated, I would never step through those doors.And I needed to.I needed to know what awaited inside.I swallowed hard, the lump in my throat forcing my voice steady. “I have to do this.”Ethan’s jaw tightened. “Then I’m going with you.”“Not a chance.” I faced him, my eyes hard. “You stay with the others.”His face contorted with disbelief, frustration. “Are you serious? You’re entering an ancient hellhole, full of god-knows-what, and you expect me just to stand here?”I exhaled. “Y

Chapter 56: On a Throne Of Blood and ShadowThe moment my fingertips skimmed the surface of the book, the world crumbled.I wasn’t falling. I wasn’t flying. I was unraveling.A million shards of reality shattered around me, warping, folding in on themselves, each with a flickering image—glimpses of things that were, things that could be, things that never were.And at the center of it all—Me.But not just me.Versions of me.One where I was on a battlefield, blood on my hands, shredded wolf and human bodies strewn at my feet.One where I was caged, a collar of silver set about my throat, screaming as the fire ran through my veins.One in which I sat upon a throne of black stone with golden eyes that shone with a malevolence that was the embodiment of inhumanity, a voice that reverberated with power.I gasped and pulled my hand away —But it was too late.The voice of the golden-eyed figure curled around me like smoke."Now you understand."I recoiled, my heart pounding, the pulse thu

Chapter 58: A Way Made Clear in DarkMorning came too soon.I barely slept.Not that I expected to.Not with all that transpired in the ruins. Not after the whispers, the visions, the figure with the golden eyes whom told me truths I hadn’t wanted to hear.Because even now, the sun rising beyond the horizon, warming the fortress walls, I could still sense it.”That shift inside me.The door that had opened.And I didn’t know how to close it.If I really am one of them, anyway, I amended as I stood at the lip of the courtyard, observing the others as they buckled their gear onto their packs.Instead, Elias checked his weapons, the mischievous smirk that was usually plastered to his face replaced with deep thought.Dorian did not speak, though he sharpened his axe, grim-faced.Selene was busy packing up medical supplies, sharp and efficient and when she thought I wasn’t looking, her eyes flicked to me.Rhea stood slightly away, whispering in Ethan’s ear.And Ethan—He stood at rigid att
