The Human Luna: Claimed Too Late 39: AN UNNECESSARY DETAIL
MALIA’S POVMy heart skipped.The older man’s smile widened as we approached, though the moment his eyes settled fully on me, it faltered for the briefest second.“….you weren’t lying?” He sounded genuinely stunned.“I don’t make a habit of lying to you, Father,” Draven replied, a trace of impatience creeping into his otherwise calm tone.Father.The word landed a second too late.This…This was Mikyal Thornefield. The former Alpha of thornhold territories.The man whose name alone was enough to make powerful Alphas lower their voices. Stories about him had spread across every pack I’d ever visited. Some called him the greatest ruler the werewolf world had ever known. Others simply called him merciless. How had I forgotten whose house I was walking into?My pulse lurched.Draven’s hand settled more firmly against the small of my back, pulling me half a step closer. To anyone watching, it looked natural. Protective, even, but to me, it felt like a warning.“Well,” Mikyal said, recoveri
The Human Luna: Claimed Too Late 38: AN EXCELLENT TIME
MALIA’S POV Draven’s hand didn’t leave the small of my back until we reached the car. The pressure wasn’t rough, but it wasn’t gentle either. It was firm enough to steer me forward without a word, as though he’d already decided where I belonged and expected my feet to follow. Somehow, in the middle of everything that had happened, I’d forgotten about my ankle. The sharp ache that had followed me since the fall had disappeared beneath the overwhelming relief of walking away from Silver Claw. I was free. Or at least… I wanted to believe I was. A guard opened the rear door before we reached it. Draven waited just long enough for me to climb inside before following after me. The door shut with a muted thud, sealing us inside the quiet car. The engine came to life. No one spoke. Outside, Silver Claw slowly disappeared behind us. The towering gates grew smaller with every passing second until they vanished beyond the winding road. I should have felt happy. Instead, a
The Human Luna: Claimed Too Late 37: I’M NOT HIS LUNA ANYMORE
EMIL’S POV My attention remained fixed on the stone table as Councilman Jerry calmly explained the finer details of the agreement. Trade routes. Tariffs. Royal protection. Benefits capable of elevating Silver Claw far beyond its current standing. Every Alpha on the continent wanted access to the King's trade network. Very few ever received it. Across the courtyard, Ajax excused himself before leading Malia back into the pack house to collect her belongings. My jaw tightened. I hated that. Hated watching another man walk beside her as though he belonged there. Every instinct I possessed urged me to stop them. To tell Malia she wasn't leaving. To remind everyone she was still my chosen mate. But instincts didn't build strong packs. Reason did. If I challenged the Alpha King now, I already knew how it would end. Silver Claw would lose. My pack would lose. And if I intended to get Malia back... Then I needed patience. Jerry continued explaining the agre
The Human Luna: Claimed Too Late 36: GO INSIDE .
EMIL'S POV "I don't require your belief." The words settled over the courtyard with unsettling finality. A loud ringing filled my ears as I stood before the Alpha King, the voices around me fading until all I could hear was the pounding of my own heartbeat. None of this made any sense. I wasn't a man who overlooked details. Every decision I made was calculated, every move considered long before I acted. I didn't make careless mistakes. So why did it feel as though I'd missed something so obvious? Malia was my mate. I had brought her into Silver Claw with my own hands. I had saved her life. I had given her a home when she had nowhere else to go. And now the Alpha King stood before my entire pack, claiming she was his fated mate? "Maybe because she's his mate... not yours." Briar's voice echoed lazily inside my head. I shut him out. I wasn't in the mood for his nonsense. My eyes found Malia. The same woman who had stood beside me for years. The same w
The Human Luna: Claimed Too Late 35: YOUR FATED MATE?
DRAVEN'S POVComing here was a waste of time. I had meetings to attend, investigations to oversee, and reports waiting on my desk. This entire handoff was a formality Ajax and councilman Jerry could have handle it without me. But if I was going to convince my father she was my mate, I needed to show I cared, even if I didn’t. Yet for some reason… the scene before me made my jaw tighten. Children stood crying at the edge of the courtyard, while adults watched as if this were some spectacle.I had known something was wrong the moment I saw her missed calls. Three missed calls from Malia weren't normal. Not after I'd told her to wait. Then again, I expected trouble when I arrived at Silver Claw; the pack and its alpha had been on my watchlist for potential problems for nearly two years now. The neighbouring packs had voiced concerns for quite some time.Still, I hadn’t expected this. Their luna surrounded by guards. Fresh marks forming around her arms. The stubborn lift of her chin a
The Human Luna: Claimed Too Late 34: NO PROTECTION.
MALIA’S POV. For the first time, Emil’s mask cracked. Only for a second. His jaw tightened. Eyes darkened. The hand resting on the chair stopped moving. “Malia.” My name left his mouth lower than before. Not a command. Not anger. Something else. But I refused to let myself wonder what. Everyone here had heard me. Everyone here would remember. My eyes locked with his. “You wanted freedom from me just as much as I wanted freedom from you. Let’s call it as it is and end it. ” His gaze sharpened. “You believe that?” I almost laughed. “Does it matter?” The muscles in his jaw moved. For a moment, it looked like he wanted to say something. Then pride won. He leaned back slowly, his expression turning cold again. “If that is your choice…” His voice was quiet. “Then you will no longer receive the elders’ protection.” My brows pulled together. “Guards.” The single word made my blood run cold. Two guards stepped forward. “Take Malia to the cells.” “What?”
The Human Luna: Claimed Too Late 19: I SAY WE GET MOVING.
I yanked the chain off. Placing on the dresser next my wedding band. Then Slowly, I picked them both up. For a brief second, memories flashed through my mind against my will. Emil sliding it onto my finger. His smile that day. The way he’d looked at me like I mattered more than anything else in
The Human Luna: Claimed Too Late 18: GETTING READY.
MALIA’S POVThe metal cuff scraped harshly against my skin as I twisted my wrist sideways again, forcing myself not to hiss from the sting. Blake had once shown me how to slip free from restraints during emergency training. At the time, I remembered laughing at him for being overly dramatic.Funny,
The Human Luna: Claimed Too Late 17: AN OPPORTUNITY.
MALIA’S POV As the door clicked shut behind Flora, silence settled heavily across the healer quarters. Juna turned toward me slowly, confidence practically dripping from every movement she made. The faint scent of expensive perfume followed her through the room, soft and floral, completely out o
The Human Luna: Claimed Too Late 16: WHO IS THE SISTER?
MALIA’S POV The words came out colder than I intended. “They have a new Luna now,” I continued bitterly. “Go ask her to save your precious pack.” A strange look crossed Flora’s face. “You have been Luna long before she was,” Flora said softly. “You are still the first Luna of this pack. A Luna
