She's gonna kill the instructor, Alpha," Talon had said. "Or herself. Or both. There's no telling with that one. The sex ed teacher made her do diagrams today."

Apparently, the instructor was relentless. No subtlety. No metaphors. No poetic euphemisms. Nope. Just hard, anatomical facts and brutally graphic expectations.

And Luna? Poor, brave, deeply mortified Luna? She was dying. Every. Single. Day.

Kyllian smirked as he stepped into his quarters. Her scent hit him instantly. He heard a thud upstairs.

He climbed the stairs quietly, not wanting to startle her mid-breakdown. 
At the top, he paused, listening.

"…and then she said, if you do not properly stimulate the upper hood of the clitoris—WHAT EVEN IS A CLITORIS HOOD?! Is it a hat? Why does it need a hat?!"

Kyllian barely contained his laughter, biting his knuckles as Talon's voice drifted back.

"Technically, it's a fold of skin. Like a protective flap."

"Oh my GODS, Talon, get out before I break something over your head."

There was a loud thwap. Possibly a throw pillow.

Kyllian finally entered the room, casual as ever. "Sounds like your education is going well."

Luna turned, her eyes wide with righteous fury and embarrassment.

"I'm scarred, Kyllian," she hissed. 
"Mentally. Emotionally. Spiritually."

He raised a brow. "That bad, huh?"

"She made me draw a penis yesterday."

Talon snorted behind her. "It was terrible. Looked like a deformed eggplant."

Luna hurled a throw pillow at him. "GET OUT!"

Talon darted from the room with a cackle.

"So," Kyllian said, lounging back in one of the plush velvet armchairs in the sitting room "What did you learn today that has your knickers in a twist?"

Luna, standing in the middle of the room with her arms crossed and a deeply offended look on her face, sighed dramatically. "I learned how to perform oral sex."

Kyllian blinked. "I… I beg your pardon?"

She tilted her head, sarcasm oozing from every word. "Oral sex, Kyllian. With detail. And a diagram. And a banana."

"A banana?"

"A banana!" she repeated, throwing her hands in the air. "Like, is that standard procedure?"

Kyllian grinned, his amusement growing. "Come on, tell me how she explained it."

His tone had shifted less teasing now and more intrigued, though he still wore that maddening smirk. He shifted forward in his seat, elbows resting on his knees.

Luna narrowed her eyes at him suspiciously. "Why? So you can laugh at me?"

"Absolutely," he said with zero shame. 
"But mostly because I want to see this banana demonstration for myself."

With a dramatic groan, she snatched the nearest banana from the fruit bowl on the coffee table. The irony that it had been sitting right there, mocking her with its yellow smugness, was not lost on her.

She held it up with two fingers. "Okay, so first, she said this is the penis…"

Kyllian held up a finger. "Wait. Did she call it that?"

*****


Luna is the Princess of the werewolf kingdom, trained to be ruthless and strong.

At the Blood Moon Festival, she comes face to face with Damien Dragos, the vampire prince. The ancient fates mark them as mates. It is forbidden, it is impossible and yet the bond is undeniable.

Will she betray her kind and surrender to Damien's dark seduction?

Without another word, he turned and breezed out of the room.


Luna stood alone in the quiet aftermath. Her ripped dress lay in a pile at her feet. Her body hummed with unresolved tension. Her heart? Oh, her heart was a traitor. It wanted to go after him. To finish what they started. To surrender.


Kyllian's heart did a somersault, then broke into a full marathon sprint the moment he read the note. His fingers trembled slightly, the paper fluttering.


'Meet me at the café between boundaries in a week. 7pm…


That was it. Simple, direct Luna. And yet, to Kyllian, it felt like the damn thing had been handwritten by the Moon Goddess herself.


Did she miss him? Was this her reaching out? Hell, at this point, if she asked him to run away to some obscure mountain village where no one knew their names, he'd already be halfway there with a packed bag and a bouquet of whatever flowers she loved.
