Chapter 5

The Hunter's words, "little sun," struck Clara like a physical blow. It wasn't just a threat; it was recognition-a terrible confirmation that she was now inextricably tied to Moonsly's world. She wasn't running from a burglar; she was running from an enemy who knew who she was. Her fingers snatched the Silver Mark coin from the counter, the cold metal a stark anchor in her terror.

Confrontation was impossible. That rifle meant business. The instinct that had made her a survivor in Oakhaven took over: hide the valuable, secure the shop, and run.

She sprinted to a hidden recess beneath the till, a small, lead-lined cubby where she stored ancient, invaluable manuscripts, safe from water damage and thieves. She shoved the coin deep inside. The lead shielding would hopefully confuse any supernatural sensing the Hunter might possess.

As she twisted the complex, silent lock, the Hunter outside spoke again, closer this time, her voice dripping with menacing patience. "The back door won't hold, little sun. Don't make this difficult." A sharp crack echoed as the woman clearly tested the strength of the wood.

Clara scrambled toward the front door, slipping the heavy iron bar across the main lock. She didn't dare turn on the shop's external lights. The back alley was the quickest way out, but the Hunter was there. Her only option was the small, rickety fire escape from the upper floor flat where she lived above the shop.

She flew up the creaking wooden stairs, two at a time, her golden hair streaming behind her. The sound of splintering wood erupted from below-the Hunter was breaking in. Clara reached her bedroom window, threw it open, and looked down at the icy metal rungs.

In the quiet shadows of the royal chambers, where the moonlight spills like liquid silver across bare skin, resistance begins to crack. The scent of cedar and rain clings to him as he closes in, his presence overwhelming, his touch slow and deliberate-like he already knows exactly how she'll respond. And she does. Every time. His hands don't just touch they linger. Claim. Promise. Every brush of his lips is not gentle... it's consuming. And when his mouth finds the sensitive curve of her neck, Kiana's defiance falters, her breath catching as something deeper, darker, and far more dangerous rises to the surface an aching, restless need she cannot fight, no matter how hard she tries. Because this is not just desire. It is a bond that burns. A pull that tightens. A hunger that refuses to be denied. Yet the closer they get, the more dangerous the line becomes. Between control... and surrender. Between hatred... and craving. Between captor... and something far more consuming. Because under the Blood Moon, nothing is ever halfway. And once you're claimed... There is no escape.

My fiancé Javen sent me to a yacht in the middle of a New York storm to finalize a high-stakes merger with Alfonse Wolfe, a billionaire rumored to have ice water in his veins. I did it for "us," shivering in a soaked evening gown and cutting my hand on broken glass just to get the signature that would save Javen’s company. But when I rushed back to the Doyle estate, the manor was blazing with lights for an unannounced engagement party. Javen wasn't waiting for me with open arms; he was standing on the dance floor with Blossom Vega, the daughter of his biggest competitor, announcing their union to the elite of New York. When I stepped forward, dripping blood and water onto the marble floor, Javen didn't try to protect me. He looked at me with pure disgust and told the gathered press that I was a "charity case" suffering from mental delusions. His mother laughed while calling me a cockroach, and his father claimed my family’s lost fortune was a hallucination.
