Chapter 1
“Ako, si Alpha Kaden ng Regional Moon Pack, tinatanggihan kita, Lucia, bilang aking mate at Luna ng pack na ito.”
Pinanood ko ang aking kasintahan ng tatlong taon habang tinatanggihan niya ako matapos niyang malaman na ako ang kanyang mate.
“Eh di tinatanggap ko ang pagtanggi mo. At fuck you, fuck kayong lahat, hindi ko kayo kailangan, mga talunan!” Sigaw ko sa buong pack na walang ginawa kundi panoorin akong tanggihan.
Nakita kong kumurap ang kanyang mga mata. Hindi niya inaasahan na tatanggapin ko agad ang kanyang pagtanggi. Magaling.
Hindi ko siya bibigyan ng kasiyahan na makita akong magmakaawa.
“Lucia,” sabi ng aking “pinakamatalik na kaibigan” sa isang nakakatakot na boses. Inaasahan din niyang magmakaawa ako.
“Ano!” Balik ko sa kanya. “Patay na kayong lahat sa akin.”
Ramdam ko ang pagpatak ng mga luha at ang sakit mula sa pagtanggi ay nagsimulang lamunin ako, kaya dali-dali akong umalis doon. Wala akong balak na bigyan sila ng kasiyahan na iyon.
Tumakbo ako nang mabilis hangga't kaya ng mga binti ko, isinara ang pinto, sakto bago ako bumagsak sa sakit.
**
Tatlong linggo ang nakalipas.
Palagi akong nananatili sa bahay ng pack. Hindi ko kilala ang aking mga magulang pero hindi iyon nakakaabala sa akin. Sinabi sa akin na iniwan nila ako at natagpuan ako ng pack, iniwan upang mamatay.
Kung iniwan nila ako, walang dahilan para hanapin sila.
Binigyan ako ng tahanan dito at tinrato tulad ng iba. Maganda ang buhay.
Naghanda ako para pumasok sa eskwela nang makatanggap ako ng text.
"Handa ka na?" Si Kaden iyon, ang boyfriend ko ng tatlong taon. Siya rin ang magiging alpha ng pack sa loob ng tatlong linggo.
“Yeah,” text ko pabalik.
May dagdag na sigla sa aking mga hakbang nang bumaba ako ng hagdan.
“Hey” ngiti ko, binati siya.
Ngumiti siya sa akin at naramdaman ko ang pamilyar na kilig sa aking tiyan.
“Hey babe” bumaba siya, binuksan ang pinto para sa akin. Tumayo siya, towering sa akin na 5’6 habang siya ay 6’4. “Ayos ba ang tulog mo,” sabi niya, tinitingnan ako ng kanyang matalim na asul na mga mata.
“Parang sanggol” ngiti ko pabalik.
Pumunta kami sa eskwelahan.
Naglakad ako sa pamilyar na mga dingding ng eskwelahan, nakakapit sa braso ni Kaden.
“Babe” tawag ko sa kanya habang naglalakad kami papunta sa aming klase para sa araw na iyon.
“Ano?” tunog niya ay walang pakialam pero sanay na ako. Ganun siya kapag hindi siya komportable sa paligid ng mga tao.
“Ano sa tingin mo ang dapat nating gawin pagbalik natin mula sa eskwelahan?”
“Busy ako mamaya, pupuntahan kita pag tapos na ako,” sabi niya nang hindi man lang binibigyan ng pansin ang sagot niya.
“Alam ko na malapit na ang ika-18 mo, pero hindi ibig sabihin na isasantabi mo ako.”
“Panahon ng mating, Laura, alam mo na kung paano ito. Bukod pa, ikaw ang mate ko. Magkakaroon tayo ng sapat na oras.” Pinanatag niya ako bago siya pumasok sa kanyang klase.
Ngumiti ako sa sinabi niya. Ang mga Alpha ay may espesyal na kakayahan na malaman kung sino ang kanilang mate, linggo minsan buwan bago sila mag-debut sa edad na labing-walo.
Parang inaasahan na namin na magiging magkaibigan kami dahil matagal na kaming may malalim na samahan.
Sobrang saya ko nang malaman ko. Mahal ko siya, at sa wakas, makakasama ko na siya habambuhay.
Mabilis lumipas ang mga klase at nagmamadali akong pumunta sa aming usual na tagpuan ni Kaden, pero nalaman ko mula sa kanyang beta na umalis na siya.
Nakita ko ang tingin ng awa na ibinigay niya sa akin, pero binalewala ko iyon.
Siguro may biglang nangyari, hindi naman siya karaniwang gumagawa ng gano'n, kaya malamang ay emergency lang.
Naglakad na lang ako pauwi, dahil si Eric, ang kanyang beta, ay kailangan pang mag-practice ng football at si Samantha, ang best friend ko, ay kailangan pang manatili para sa detention.
"Hey, umalis ka lang bigla." Tinext ko siya.
Walang sagot. Sinubukan kong huwag magalit pero sa bawat hakbang ko sa malamig at walang pakundangang panahon, gusto ko nang punitin ang puso niya.
"Dapat sinabi mo man lang." Tinext ko ulit siya. Nabasa niya ito, pero hindi sumagot.
Pagdating ko sa pack house sampung minuto ang nakalipas, halos magkaron na ako ng frost bite sa mga daliri ko, nakita ko si Kaden na nakabihis ng maayos at nagte-training ng mga pack warriors. O yun ang itsura mula sa kinatatayuan ko.
"Ang kapal ng mukha mo!" Sabi ko habang naglalakad papunta sa kanya at nakuha ang atensyon ng lahat na nasa labas.
"Iniwan mo ako, alam mo, kahit maliit na text man lang sana," sabi ko habang nasa harapan niya.
"Pag-uusapan natin 'to mamaya," sabi niya sa mababang boses na halatang iritado.
"Hindi, gusto ko pag-usapan natin ngayon," galit na galit ako, sobra pa sa galit.
Lumapit siya sa akin at yumuko nang kaunti para umabot sa taas ko. "Pinapahiya mo ang sarili mo ngayon, kaya bakit hindi mo na lang lunukin ang pride mo at hintayin hanggang magka-oras ako para sa'yo."
Tiningnan ko siya at tumingin pabalik sa mga tao na ngayon ay nakatuon sa amin, naramdaman kong namumula ako sa sitwasyon at naglakad papunta sa kwarto ko.
Naglakad-lakad ako sa kwarto, hinihintay ang gabi.
Maya-maya, napagod ako at nakatulog, nagising lang nang pumasok si Kaden sa kwarto ko.
"Kaden?" ungol ko mula sa pagkakatulog. Masakit ang buong katawan ko mula sa pagtulog sa sahig.
"Gising ka pa?" lumapit siya sa akin at inayos ang buhok ko sa gilid.
"Medyo."
"Mabuti," hinila niya ako sa upuang posisyon. "Kailangan nating mag-usap."
Tumango ako, pinipilit tanggalin ang natitirang antok sa mga mata ko.
"Sige, ano yun?" Mukha siyang bagong ligo.
Magulo ang buhok niya, pero maganda pa rin, parang gusto kong suklayin ng kamay ko.
Ang malambot na liwanag ng buwan ay nagpakita kung gaano kahubog ang kanyang mga kalamnan.
"Sa tingin ko, kailangan nating bigyan ng espasyo ang isa't isa, pansamantala."
Bumagsak ang puso ko sa ilalim ng aking sikmura.

The Shadow Of A Luna
Everyone looked in that direction and there was a man standing there that I had never noticed before. He would have been in his early 20's, brown hair to his shoulders, a brown goatee, 6-foot 6 at least and very defined muscles that were now tense as his intense gaze was staring directly at me and Mason.
But I didn't know who he was. I was frozen in the spot and this man was just staring at us with pure hatred in his eyes. But then I realized that the hatred was for Mason. Not me.
"Mine." He demanded.
My Marked Luna
"Yes,"
He exhales, raises his hand, and brings it down to slap my naked as again... harder than before. I gasp at the impact. It hurts, but it is so hot, and sexy.
"Will you do it again?"
"No,"
"No, what?"
"No, Sir,"
"Best girl," he brings his lips to kiss my behind while he caresses it softly.
"Now, I'm going to fck you," He sits me on his lap in a straddling position. We lock gazes. His long fingers find their way to my entrance and insert them.
"You're soaking for me, baby," he is pleased. He moves his fingers in and out, making me moan in pleasure.
"Hmm," But suddenly, they are gone. I cry as he leaves my body aching for him. He switches our position within a second, so I'm under him. My breath is shallow, and my senses are incoherent as I anticipate his hardness in me. The feeling is fantastic.
"Please," I beg. I want him. I need it so badly.
"So, how would you like to come, baby?" he whispers.
