MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 31 - Where Darkness Waits
I stand just outside the war room doors, my fingers curling slightly at my sides as the low murmur of voices seeps through the heavy wood. Tyson and Aiden have been locked in there for days, barely sleeping, barely eating, building strategies from the information I risked my life to bring back.Now, they’re ready for me.I push the door open.The air hits me first, thick, tense, calculated. Maps are spread across the long oak table, marked with symbols, lines, and hurried notes. The faint scent of ink mixes with something darker… magic. It lingers, heavy and warning.Tyson doesn’t look up immediately.He stands at the head of the table, one hand braced against it, the other gripping a charcoal pencil so tightly it snaps in two. His shoulders are rigid, like he’s holding back something dangerous.Aiden notices me first. His sharp gaze flickers toward me, softening just a fraction.“She’s here.”That’s all it takes.Tyson lifts his head.And the moment his eyes lock onto mine, something
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 30 - The Master
Then he took a deep breath, physically forcing himself to calm down. “Explain.”I swallow.“I didn’t break in,” I say quickly. “Not exactly. It was a layered concealment field. It responds to magic. I studied it… countered it… and it accepted me.” It burned though. Like cold iron under my skin. I wasn’t sure I’d make it back out. But I can’t tell Tyson this. He is already angry that I put myself at risk. Guilt twisted inside of me, because i can imagine what he went through when he thought something bad must have happened to me. But I honestly can’t fold my hands and do nothing. MoonHaven is in my home, and as Luna, I refuse to let my people continue to be vulnerable just because we can’t locate our enemies’ camp.The room goes still again.Tyson’s voice drops dangerously. “It accepted you.”I nod once. “Yes.”A long pause, then he steps closer.Slowly. Carefully, like he’s recalibrating everything he thought he knew about me.“You walked into a witch-guarded rogue fortress,” he says
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 29 - Into The Wolves’ Den
Tyson goes completely still. Not the controlled stillness of a leader holding himself together.The kind of stillness that comes right before a storm decides where to strike.His eyes lock onto mine. “Say that again,” he says slowly as if he thought he didn’t hear me correctly.My throat tightens, but I don’t look away.“I found where the rogues are hiding.”Aiden’s posture straightens immediately.The guards behind Tyson shift uneasily.Tyson doesn’t blink, doesn’t move.Just studies me like he’s trying to decide whether to be furious again, kill me himself or kiss me.“…You went into rogue territory,” he says slowly.“I didn’t go far..”“That is not what I asked.”The tone makes my words die in my throat.I lift my chin slightly anyway. “Yes.”A sharp inhale from someone behind him, Tyson closes his eyes for half a second.Just one.When he opens them again, the anger is still there,but it’s buried under something heavier.Calculation.Focus.As if he has decided to get the informa
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 28 - I Won’t Survive Losing You
By the time I return to the compound, the sky has already shifted into deep night.Too late.The moment I step past the outer guards, I feel it. The atmosphere is wrong, like the entire place is holding its breath and refusing to exhale.Then I hear it.A voice.A roar of command that shakes the corridor walls.“You three were supposed to guide her!”I freeze.Oh.That’s… not good.Because I recognize that voice instantly.TysonI don’t even need to see him to know what he looks like right now. A wolf whose mate has gone missing doesn’t behave like a man anymore.He behaves like something restrained by thin threads of control. A wolf in that state does not sleep.Does not eat.Does not think clearly.His instincts override logic. He tracks scent patterns obsessively, replaying every second he last had his mate in sight.He becomes hyper-aware of sound, movement, presence.And worst of all he becomes possessive in panic.Not gentle possessiveness, not romantic.Territorial devastations
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 27 - The Breach
The BreechThe attack comes just after sunrise.No warning, no negotiation. Just blood in motion.The rogue wolves hit the eastern border like they’ve done it before, like they’ve studied our patterns, our rhythms, our weaknesses. The alarm howls through the compound, sharp enough to shake the bones of every guard on duty.I’m already moving before anyone tells me to, but I’m not moving with them, not this time, this time, I hang back, out of sight.Out of order. I can feel him immediately.Tyson His presence snaps through the bond like a warning flare.Stay inside the perimeter.His voice doesn’t even need words anymore. It presses straight into my mind, tight and absolute.I almost roll my eyes out loud.Of course he still thinks the safest place for me is behind him, out of reach, out of danger, out of everything that actually matters.I grip the edge of the wall, watching the chaos unfold ahead. I’m not a woman who allows her mate to go into battle while she sits back and twiddle
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 26 - How to Roast an Oracle
Tyson refuses to leave the bed the next morning. I finally kick him out of the bed because he refuses to, we have sex in so many positions, some of them I never would believe it was possible.I am now too sore for any more sex. But I am sore and happy, satisfied and glowing. That glow you can only get from mind-blowing sex.Over the next days, I stop fighting sleep. Because sleep doesn’t feel like escape anymore. It feels like falling into something warm.Safe.Shared.The house changes too in subtle ways. The tension in the pack shifts, less pressure.Tyson is always near, not suffocating. Just… present. And I love it because, for the first time in a long time, I don’t feel lonely.Like a constant gravity I’ve stopped resisting. And every time I look at him, something inside me settles. Something deep and unfamiliar:Peace.There are moments, long stretches of time where words aren’t necessary at all. Just looks. Just proximity. Just understanding.And when we are alone, the bond be
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 20 - The Closer You Become
The silence that follows feels like it has weight. Like it’s pressing down on my chest, making it harder to breathe.I don’t realize I’ve stepped back until my shoulder brushes against something solid.Warm and alive. Tyson He doesn’t say anything at first, but I feel it, the shift in him. The way
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 3 - Beyond the Mountains
I woke up in a bed, surrounded by three big men. They are all huge. I pretend as if I am still unconscious.A voice booms beside me. “Open your eyes, spy. We can tell you’re awake.”I open my eyes to glare at the speaker. A tall blond man who looks about thirty-four. “You don’t need to be so loud,
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 2 - Drawn to Destiny
Chapter TwoAs much as I would love to get myself some buzz, I can’t do that with my state of unemployment. I hardly get drunk, it takes a lot of alcohol to get me to that state. Lucky me, nothing ever works my way. Back when my mum was still alive, she used to tell me I am wasting my time trying
MOONHAVEN CHRONICLES: The Captive mate Chapter 1 - No Safe Place.
I nearly escape, my things packed and my key in my hand, just as I am about to lock the door, that’s when I hear footsteps.If I were living a normal life, I would have thought it was probably my neighbors returning from a latenight party. But no, nothing about my life has been normal ever since m
