LARA

I fell silent, turning my father's words over in my mind. If I were still in Red Moon Pack—if I had only been rejected instead of banished—perhaps I would have chosen to end the pregnancy. Not because I didn't want the child, but because I couldn't bear the thought of bringing them into a world that had shown me nothing but cruelty. I didn't want my baby growing up surrounded by hatred.

And if their transformation was delayed like mine had been...

The thought alone made my chest ache.

  • The Banished Luna's Awakening   Obsession? Or Love?

    Lara's POVElena’s gaze shifted past him, taking in the destroyed platform, the blood, the warriors, and finally landing on me. Her brow furrowed. She looked down at her own hands — the black wedding ring still on her finger — then back at Marcus.“Whose life did you steal?” she asked quietly, her voice gaining a little strength even as confusion clouded her expression. “I can feel it… something else inside me. But it doesn’t belong to me. Tell me, Marcus. What did you do?”The question hung heavy in the air. For a moment, Marcus hesitated, the mask slipping further. He glanced at me, then back at Elena, his jaw tightening.“It was necessary,” he said finally, voice low. “The old power demanded a trade. A life for a life. Matteo’s essence…. His strength will make you whole again. It will let us have the future that was stolen from us.”Elena’s eyes widened in horror. She pulled her hand away from his, staring at her own body as if it were a foreign prison. “You… you killed someone? F

    Lara's POVAround us, the battle intensified. Lucien moved like a whirlwind, his enchanted sword flashing as he cut through tendrils of dark magic Marcus flung his way. Dad’s massive wolf form coordinated with the elite warriors, flanking from the left. Ryker’s wolf snapped and lunged from the right, creating openings for me. For a fleeting moment, we had Marcus on the defensive.I pressed the advantage, silver blades forming around my fists as I closed the distance. “You won’t escape this time!” I snarled, landing a glancing blow that made him stagger.Marcus laughed through the strain, green and purple energy swirling faster around him. “Escape? Oh, Luna… I’m exactly where I need to be.”That’s when I saw her — Elder Valeria.She had appeared at the edge of the platform like a shadow given form, her robes billowing despite the lack of wind. Her eyes glowed with an unnatural violet light as she raised her twisted staff. Before Lucien could fully register the threat, dark vines of mag

  • The Banished Luna's Awakening   War I

    LARAThe world shattered.Marcus’s final words echoed in my ears like a curse. *Perfect symmetry, don’t you think?*Everything inside me collapsed.I dropped to my knees, pulling Matteo’s lifeless body tightly into my arms. His head rested heavily against my chest, eyes closed, face peaceful in a way that broke me even more. No rise and fall of his chest. No warm breath against my neck. No familiar spark through our mate bond.Just… nothing.A raw, guttural sob tore from my throat as I buried my face in his hair, hugging him desperately to my chest. Tears streamed down my face, mixing with the blood still leaking from my nose and side. My body rocked back and forth instinctively, the same way I had soothed our pups when they were newborns.“Matteo…” I whispered brokenly, voice barely audible. “Please… don’t do this. Come back. The children need their father. I need you. We were supposed to have more time…”I was completely lost in the grief, the battlefield fading into a hazy blur aro

  • The Banished Luna's Awakening   Matteo... dies??

    MATTEOThe nightmare was only beginning.The ground trembled violently beneath us, the dark symbols spreading like cracks across the entire platform. Purple-black flames roared higher, licking at the edges of the wooden structure as if the earth itself was awakening something ancient and hungry. The air grew thick with the scent of ozone and burning wood, choking the night.Lara’s grip on Marcus tightened, her silver aura flickering dangerously under the strain of the dark magic pressing down on her. Blood continued to pour from her nose and the deep gash in her side, but her eyes remained locked on mine through the chaos. Even now, in the heart of hell, her love reached me like a lifeline.*Matteo…* Her voice echoed through our bond, weak but filled with desperate love. *I’m not leaving you.*I wanted to scream at her to run. To save herself. To protect our children and the future we had fought so hard for. But the silver collar around my neck burned like molten fire, sending white-h

  • The Banished Luna's Awakening   You call me a monster? This world created me

    MATTEO“STOP!”The single word ripped through the night like thunder, freezing the entire courtyard in place.My eyes snapped open, stinging from sweat and blood.There she was — Lara — shoving desperately through the stunned crowd, her cloak whipping wildly behind her in the biting wind. Her chest heaved with ragged, exhausted breaths from what must have been a brutal, unrelenting run. Strands of her hair clung to her sweat-slicked face, and even from the platform, I could see the raw terror blazing in her eyes alongside an unyielding fury that made my heart clench.She had come for me.Fear and horror crashed into me with such force that the world narrowed to a single, agonizing point. The silver chains bit deeper into my neck and wrists as I thrashed against them. Fresh blood trickled down my bare chest, the metal searing my flesh like molten acid. Every movement sent new waves of fire through my veins.“No!” I roared, my voice hoarse and cracking with desperation. “Lara! Get out o

  • The Banished Luna's Awakening   Run!

    MATTEOThe dungeon was a nightmare carved into stone. It was deep underground, far beneath the main pack house — a place I had only ever visited to interrogate enemies. Now I was the one rotting in it.The cell was small, barely ten feet by ten feet, with rough, damp stone walls that sweated cold moisture. The air was thick and stale, carrying the metallic tang of old blood and the rot of mildew. A single weak enchanted torch flickered on the wall outside the bars, casting long, dancing shadows that made everything feel even more suffocating.Silver-lined bars formed the front of the cell, burning my skin every time I got too close. Heavy silver chains hung from the ceiling and were bolted into the floor — ready to restrain a shifted wolf if needed. In the corner was a filthy straw mat that smelled of urine. A small hole in the floor served as a latrine. That was it. No blanket. No water unless they felt generous. No light except that pathetic torch.I had been here for four days.Fou

    "I, Alpha Matteo of the Red Moon Pack," his voice rang loud and cold across the packed ceremonial grounds, "reject you, Lara Alvarez, as my mate and Luna."The words slammed into me like a silver blade to the chest. For a second, the world went silent. My heart stuttered, then dropped violently int

    Then the orchestra struck up a new melody. A slow, elegant waltz. Dad immediately offered his hand."May I have the first dance, Princess?"A smile tugged at my lips. "I thought you said I didn't need dance lessons.""You don't." His eyes twinkled. "I'll lead."I placed my hand in his large, warm o

    When consciousness returned, it came slowly. Voices drifted in and out around me, blurred and muffled, like they were underwater.“She collapsed from emotional shock—”“No, there’s something else.”“Are you certain?” I slowly recognized Kael's voice.“Yes.”The last voice belonged to an elderly hea
