Origins: The Luna City Trilogy More nervous than he looks...
Drawn in by his magnetic embrace, I can’t help but wonder if Elijah’s heart is beating just as quickly as mine; hastening in its pace from each lingering second that we spend entwined, remaining unbudged while he adoringly holds my pale face against his own. Filling with helplessness, a surging tide of warmth casts over me as I fall limp within my mate’s needing arms, melting into him while he catches me willingly. As Elijah’s insistent mouth glides against my shaking lips, a wild tremor runs along my nerves, evoking sensations I never knew I could possess while falling victim to the overwhelming connection we both presently share. Allowing my giddiness to cloud my judgement, I grip the collar of his slackening shirt while hungrily demanding more, shaking with anticipation as I lose myself in the moment. Breathless and lightheaded, I refuse to part away while drowning in Elijah’s intoxicating scent, allowing it to wrap itself around me like a blanket threaded from fire when I notice th
Origins: The Luna City Trilogy Bursting our perfect bubble...
As if I had woken from the most blissful dream, a creeping smile of contentedness plays upon my curling lips. Stirring gently beneath the weighing duvet, I shake off the remnants of my well-rested slumber before stretching out. Eagerly sitting up, I manage to catch a glimpse of the first broken rays of sunshine while it seeps enchantingly into the silent room through the tousled curtains. In a numb daze, I rub my bleary eyes while releasing a muffled yawn as I’m greeted by the welcoming familiarity of my bedroom. Getting out of bed, I slip my feet into the set of waiting slippers at my side and dozily walk over towards the hidden window before drawing back the curtains. Invigorated by the sight before me, I inhale deeply while gazing upwards, marvelling at the soft, pearl-like clouds dispersing throughout the brightening sky overhead—watching quietly as it rids itself of any overcast. Squinting gently, I reach out for my strewn dressing gown when I notice that I somehow feel lighter on
Origins: The Luna City Trilogy Uncovering the truth...
As Elijah’s freshly spoken words echo hauntingly around me like a ghostly whisper, my soul withers and dissipates while I crumble within. Shrinking beneath his gaze, I notice the room dims into an unpleasant glow while a gathering of stormy clouds nestles menacingly outside. Looming vastly over the city, the gloomy blanket chases the sun away before allowing a gentle patter of falling rain to collide against the windowpane. Staring back at my waiting mate, it feels as if the world has come to a standstill—frozen in time as I’m left blindsided by his admittance. Unsure of what to say, all that I can manage is that of an unprompted whimper when an unbearable ripple of sharp pain spreads across my chest. Wincing reactively, the sensation swells beneath my ribcage; tightening around my heart as if it were being squeezed in the unmerciful palms of truth itself, leaving the breaking organ to forget its own rhythm while it beats out of tune. As I attempt to wade through my tempestuous emot
Origins: The Luna City Trilogy Give a wolf a break...
Despite spending most of the day assuring Elijah that I’m fine, he remains reluctant to give the dust from this morning a chance to settle. Persistent in his conquest of earning my already given affection back, my mate patiently waits on me against my protest, dotingly directing all of his attention solely my way. After some time, Elijah eventually loosens up when his self-held grudge dissipates gradually—losing himself in the conversation as it flows effortlessly between us. Sensing his angst vanish, I settle down and relax within my mate’s company. Swept up by the unending list of topics waiting to be explored, we blissfully discuss all that comes to mind, uncaring of the world, while it passes us by in a pleasant blur. As if the novelty of my presence had yet to wear off on him, I watch while Elijah’s silver eyes glisten brightly each time I laugh or giggle in response to something he says—looking smitten with my returned adoration as he revels in our time alone. Consumed by Elijah’

**UNDER EDIT** Ash?” I gasp, my heart twisting at the mention of my lost brother's name. “I guess we don’t need to try mind-linking with him after all,” my wolf struggles to withhold her excitement, “-when do we leave?” “How long ago was this?” Elijah takes a stormful step towards his brother, profoundly wound up by the news. “About twenty minutes ago,” Isaac wipes the sweat from his brow, his breathing still frantic, “-I went to call you as soon as Frankie told me what was going on, but I must have left my phone back at the office. Thus,” he holds out his arms sarcastically, “-why I had to run all the way here. I was tempted to shift, but given that its rush hour out there right now, I didn’t think the Trinity Council would appreciate an influx of calls about a wild wolf running rampant through the city.” “That was a wise call,” Elijah a
Origins: The Luna City Trilogy Hidden in plain sight...
A commotion of cars pulling up can be heard behind me as tyres screech to a halt but I don’t dare take my eyes off the rapidly unfolding scene in front of me. The crowd begins to whisper in the revelation of my connection to Elijah, their words clear as day as my hearing switches from one conversation to another, tuning in uncontrollably to the different discussions surrounding my identity and Elijah’s recently ended engagement. Gossiping and whispering like a hushed wave. “Call for back up Boss?” Dakotas voice sounds from behind me, gratefully welcomed with the escalating situation. I turn around quickly and watch her and a handful of large wolves stroll through the crowd, dispersing them in a terrifying panic as everyone begins to scuttle home not wanting to be caught in a disagreement with two rivalling Alpha’s and a sudden swarm of intimidating warriors. “Just in time, Dakota!” Elijah chuckles, shifting back into his human form and quickly putting on a pair of pa
Origins: The Luna City Trilogy Night Inc...
Continuing to crouch out of sight like a child playing a game of hide and seek, I find my body unable to move while my curiosity continues to grow intensely. The building intrigue holds me frozen to my spot like a statue, rooted to the ground while remaining out of sight as I listen to the unravelling conversation which wasn’t intended for my ears.“Have any of the members from the Opal Pack tried reaching out to you, yet?” Dakota asks, her voice tainted with worry.“Honestly, I don’t know. My phone has been switched off all night. I didn’t want anyone bothering me when I was at the hospital with Willow…” I hear Elijah trail off distracted.After a few seconds of painful silence, a playful melody kicks in from downstairs followed by an avalanche of frantic beeping and buzzing. The eruption of chaotic noise circu

“Will you calm yourself down, young lady! You look ridiculous!” Vincent growls exasperated at his flailing daughter. His foot start’s to tap impatiently on the pavement as he leans on his cane witnessing her lash out despite his angered plea.Aubrey continues to cause a scene, not at all concerned with his warning remaining caught up in the moment. Desperate kicks and punches are thrown at the amused boys as they easily escape her clumsy attempts of causing harm, laughing mockingly at the feeble attack, blocking her from getting too close to either Elijah or myself.“-I didn’t bring you along with me for you to go and make a fool out of me!” Vincent sneers at his daughter, authority riddled in his tone causing her to stop dead in her tracks. A defeated pout paints her face, reluctantly obeying her father’s stern orders and gradually coming to
