Desire Of The Blood Moon

Chapter Seven

The Luna’s warning kept repeating in my head like a bad song I couldn’t turn off. The second she told me, a heavy wave of heat crashed all over my body. My skin felt too tight, and my heart was pounding so hard I could hear it in my ears. Between my legs, the ache was getting worse; it was almost painful now.

I dropped to my knees beside the Luna. She looked so small lying there, her silver fur was matted with blood. Her breathing was shallow. It was so obvious she was struggling to breathe.

“Luna?” I whispered, while pressing a clean cloth to the deepest cut on her side. “Can you hear me?”

Her eyes opened just a little. They were glassy with pain. “The bond…” she wheezed, her voice barely above a whisper. “It’s not just a claim. It’s waking something dangerous inside you. Be careful… please.”

She dug her claws into my wrist for a second, then sloped back down. Her head fell back,k and she passed out again.

I sat there staring at her, my hands were shaking. The heat inside me got stronger, and I felt a deep throbbing between my thighs that made my knees weak. I looked up at Rowan. He was watching me, he was breathing hard, the towel around his waist doing little to hide the thick, heavy outline of his d**k. His brown eyes stared at me deeply,l ike he knew exactly how I felt. The bond hummed between us, and I could feel his hunger mixing with mine, getting stronger and stronger until I couldn’t think straight.

“Rowan,” I gasped, crawling toward him on the rug. I couldn’t stop myself. I didn’t want to. “Please, it burns. Make it stop.”

He didn’t ask questions. He didn’t hesitate. With a low growl, he pulled me up against him, his hands gripping my hips hard. The towel dropped to the floor. He pressed his lips onto mine; he was hungry and rough. I kissed him back just as hard, digging my nails into his shoulders, pulling him closer. I needed to feel him everywhere.

He lifted me effortlessly, then I wrapped my legs around his waist. My back hit the wall hard. The force made me whimper a bit, but he swallowed the sound with his mouth. I was soaking wet. My p***y was throbbing with a need that almost hurt. When he thrust into me, hard and deep, the feeling was overwhelming. It wasn’t just the stretch of his coc,k but the bond made everything stronger. It turned his pleasure into mine and mine into his until I couldn’t tell where I ended and he began.

“f**k,” he whispered beside my neck, his breath slightly grazing my sensitive skin there.

He pounded into me without stopping, making me moan louder with every hard thrust. His thick c**k dragged against my inner walls perfectly. I threw my head back, gasping, completely overwhelmed. Every nerve in my body felt raw and exposed. The sound of our skin slapping together filled the room, mixing with our heavy breathing, our moans and the crackle of the fire.

I held onto him tightly, my fingers tangling in his hair. I pulled his mouth back to mine. The orgasm built fast inside me, like a wave rising from my toes. “Rowan, I’m—”

“Come for me,” he commanded, his voice in a low tone.

The wave crashed over me. I cried out loud as my p***y clenched tightly around him. The pleasure tore through my body, strong and unstoppable. He followed right after me with a loud moan, burying himself deep inside me. His c**k pulsed and throbbed as he filled me with his heat. We stayed locked together, riding out the aftershocks, our foreheads pressed against each other, breathing the same air. He slowly lowered me to the floor but kept his arms around me so I wouldn’t fall.

After a minute, I looked up at him. “Who was she? The woman I saw in the vision… your mate.”

Rowan’s whole body became tense. He looked away and ran his hand through his hair. “Not now, Kaira.”

“But I saw her,” I said softly. “You two looked so happy. Why won’t you tell me about her?”

He stayed quiet for a long time. “It’s complicated,” he finally muttered. “She’s gone. That’s all you need to know right now.”

I opened my mouth to push him, but another vision hit me without warning.

Sunlight. Warm grass. Rowan laughing — a real, happy laugh I’d never heard from him before. A beautiful blonde woman tackled him playfully. She had bright blue eyes and a warm, bright smile. They rolled around in the meadow, kissing and teasing each other. The love between them was so strong it made my chest hurt.

She reached up and touched the silver pendant around her neck — a wolf howling at a crescent moon. The same one the Luna was wearing right now.

The vision started to fade. I tried to hold onto it, to see what happened next, but it ripped away.

I gasped and came back to reality, my knees shaking. I dropped to the floor beside the unconscious silver wolf. My fingers reached for the chain around her neck, and I lifted the pendant.

It was identical.

Everything clicked at once.

“Oh my God…” I whispered.

Rowan was beside me in a second. “Kaira? What happened?”

I looked up at him, my voice shaking. “The blonde woman in my vision… her name was Elara, wasn’t it?”

Rowan froze. His face went completely pale.

I looked back down at the Luna. “It’s her. The woman you loved… she’s the Luna.”

The room went dead silent.

Rowan didn’t say anything. He just stared at the unconscious silver wolf with a look of pain and shock I’d never seen on his face before.
