THE LAST OATH OF THE MOONTropes: Broken Alpha x Chosen Human Girl | Fated Mates | Forced Proximity | He Falls First & Harder | Touch Her and Die | Forbidden Oath | Dying MoonThe moon was bleeding, and Eira knew what that meant: The Keepers were going to die.For 100 years, her people guarded the Moonstone — the heart of the moon itself. For 100 years, they waited for the wolves who swore to protect them. But the wolves never came. The Moon Pack was dead. The Alpha who broke his oath was a ghost story mothers used to scare their children.Until the night warlocks burned her village to ash to steal the stone from her neck.Her mother died with her name on her lips, shoving the warm, pulsing Moonstone into her hands. "Don't let them take it. The moon dies without you."With nothing but blood on her feet and a dying stone around her throat, Eira ran into the one place no Keeper is allowed to enter: The Forbidden Forest.The forest where wolves do not take humans.The forest where her fate was already waiting.Kael had not spoken in 50 years.He had buried his pack. He had buried his mate. He had broken his sacred oath to protect the Keepers when he was too late to save the last one. For 50 years, he has lived as a beast in an empty cabin, letting the forest eat his soul, waiting to die alone while the moon above slowly bled out.He swore he would never make another vow.Then he smelled her. Pine. Fear. And Moonstone.Bleeding in the snow at the edge of his river was a small human girl with storm-grey eyes, wearing the stone that had damned him. The ancient law he thought was dead for a century roared back to life in his bones, louder than his guilt.An Alpha must guard the Keeper with his life.The Moonstone had chosen. And this time, it chose him.He should kill her and end the curse. It would be easier.Instead, he picked her up.Eira wakes up in the arms of a nightmare made beautiful — a tall, scarred man with molten gold eyes who looks at her like she is both salvation and sin. Kael is everything she was taught to hate. Cold. Ruthless. A beast who abandoned her people.But his cabin is warm when the world outside is freezing. His hands that could rip a warlock apart are the same hands that bandaged her bleeding feet. And when the warlock hounds howl outside his wards, his only words are:"You're mine to protect now. Even if it kills me. Again."He doesn't want a mate. He doesn't want a Keeper. He wants to be left alone to rot.But Eira is not the weak human girl he thought she was. The Moonstone is not just choosing her — it is changing her. Her blood is turning silver. She is hearing the moon whisper. And every night she stays under his roof, Kael's control fractures a little more.He tries to keep his distance. He fails.He tries not to touch her. He fails.Because Eira, with her soft mouth and stubborn heart, is doing what no one has done in 50 years — she is making the broken Alpha feel again. And when she looks at him with those grey eyes and asks him to teach her how to fight, how to survive, how to make the moon whole again...He knows he will burn the entire world for her.The warlocks want the stone. The dying moon wants a sacrifice. And the oath inside Kael's blood wants Eira — not just safe, but his.But there is a secret the Keepers never told. The Moonstone does not just need a guardian.It needs a Luna.And to become a Luna, Eira must do what no human has ever survived: Take the bite of the Alpha who swore he would never love again.The moon is bleeding darker every night.The warlocks are three miles back, and they are getting closer.And Kael has just realized the most terrifying truth of all: He doesn't just want to protect her. He wants to claim her. To mark her. To make her his in a way that no oath can ever break.Will Eira become the Luna the moon needs before the moon dies completely? Or will Kael's broken oath be the one that finally kills them both?

They met during a typhoon warning in Quezon City, when the power cut out and the only light in the cafe came from candles and phone screens.Mara was 27, editing articles for a small online magazine. Elias was 29, a photographer who took jobs shooting weddings he didn’t believe in. He was drying his camera with a napkin. She was trying to save a draft before her laptop died. The rain hit the windows so hard neither of them heard the other’s first hello.*The beginning*For three months they lived like people in a movie montage. Morning coffee in Maginhawa. Night walks when the streets were empty. Elias taught her how to see light. Mara taught him how to stay in one place long enough to be found. He told her he’d grown up moving every two years because of his dad’s contracts. She told him she’d stayed in one house her whole life and was terrified of leaving it. They promised each other the opposite of what they feared. He promised roots. She promised movement.On their four month anniversary he gave her a key to his apartment. It was a tiny studio in Cubao with books stacked on the floor and prints taped to the walls. She left a toothbrush there. He started keeping her favorite tea in his cabinet. *The crack*The betrayal didn’t start with another person. It started with a secret.Elias got an offer. A six month assignment in Europe, documenting refugee resettlement. It was the kind of work he’d said he wanted since college. The pay was enough to fund a year of personal projects after. The catch: he had to leave in ten days, and he couldn’t bring anyone.He didn’t tell Mara for a week. He told himself he was waiting for the right moment. Then he told himself he was protecting her from worrying. Then he realized he was protecting himself from her reaction.When he finally said it, they were in his kitchen. She was making adobo. The smell filled the room."I got the Europe job," he said."That’s amazing," she said, and then heard his tone. "When?""Next week."The spoon stopped moving in the pot.She didn’t yell. That was the worst part. She just asked questions in a very quiet voice. How long. Where exactly. Would they video call. Did he apply before they met. Yes, he had. Six months ago."I thought we were building something," she said."We are. I’ll come back and we’ll —""You’ll come back different. People always do."She finished cooking. They ate in silence. She left the key on his counter when she went home.*The middle*For two months they did the long distance thing badly. Time zones, bad signal, messages that said "I miss you" and got a thumbs up six hours later. Mara threw herself into work. She took every assignment. She wrote about city politics, about small businesses closing, about love in the time of gig work. Her editor called her fearless. Her friends called her exhausted.Elias sent photos. Not selfies. Streets in Lisbon. A kid learning to ride a bike in a camp. The sea at dawn. Under each one he wrote one line. "Wish you were here to see this light." She never replied to those.In month three he came home for two weeks between assignments. They tried. Dinner, a movie, sex that felt like trying to remember a language. On the last night he asked her to wait for him. "Five more months," he said. "Then I’m done traveling for a while.""What if I can’t?" she said."Then tell me now."She didn’t answer.*The betrayal*It happened a month before he was supposed to come back for good.Mara met someone at a press event. Jon, a lawyer who worked with NGOs. He was kind in a steady, boring way. He remembered her coffee order. He didn’t disappear for weeks. He was there when her laptop crashed before a deadline. He was there when her lola went to the hospital.She told herself it was just friendship. Then it wasn’t. She didn’t plan to fall. She also didn’t plan to tell Elias right away. By the time she did, three months had passed and she and Jon had spent Christmas together.She wrote Elias an email because she couldn’t say it on a call. "I’m seeing someone. I’m sorry. I waited as long as I could. I thought you were coming back to me, but I don’t know who you are when you’re gone, and I don’t know who I am when you’re here."He read it in an airport in Frankfurt. He didn’t reply for two days.When he did, it was three words: "I understand. Take care."*After*Elias finished the assignment. He came home and sublet his studio and moved to a smaller place in Manila. He stopped taking wedding jobs. He started teaching photography to teenagers.Mara stayed with Jon for a year. It was calm. It was safe. It was not the thing she had with Elias.Two years later they ran into each other at a gallery opening in Makati. Elias was showing a series called "Homes." Photos of empty rooms, made beds, keys on tables. Mara was there covering it for work.They talked for ten minutes by the exit. About the traffic. About her lola. About his students."Are you happy?" he asked."I’m okay,"

Si Angelita Dela Rosa, 24, ang nag-iisang tagapag-alaga ng pinakamatandang hardin ng rosas sa San Angel.

Hanggang sa dumating si Miguel Arguelles.Si Miguel — anak ng may-ari ng lupang kinatatayuan ng hardin. Galing Maynila, gwapo, malamig ang pakikitungo, at may sugatang nakaraan. Bumalik siya sa probinsya para ibenta ang lahat ng ari-arian ng kanyang pamilya, kasama na ang hardin ni Angelita.Magkalaban sila sa simula.Siya ang bulaklak na ayaw magpatinag.Siya ang bagyong pilit siyang bubunutin.Pero habang pinipilit ni Miguel na paalisin siya, mas lalo siyang nahuhulog sa babaeng walang ibang alam kundi magmahal nang buo. At habang pinipilit ni Angelita na kamuhian siya, doon niya unang naramdaman kung paano mamukadkad hindi lang bilang bulaklak, kundi bilang babae.Ngayon, kailangan nilang mamili: Ipaglalaban ba nila ang hardin? O ang pag-ibig na unti-unting tumutubo sa pagitan nila?Dahil ang bulaklak ni Angelita ay mamumukadkad na — at kapag hindi ito naalagaan, tuluyan itong malalanta.
