MOONBOUND | Remus Lupin

Luna Selwyn had been raised to look past people like Remus Lupin. Half-blood. Poor. Marked by something that made the other professors whisper behind their hands. He was invisible to her world - and that was exactly how it was supposed to stay.

But she noticed.

She noticed the way he flinched at loud noises. The way his hands trembled when he thought no one was watching. The way he disappeared like clockwork every month and returned paler, thinner, with new lines carved into his tired face.

She noticed the loneliness in him. The same loneliness that lived in her chest like a second heartbeat.

He thought he was hiding. He thought no one could see the monster beneath the surface.

He didn't realize she'd been living with monsters her whole life.

And now she's standing at the edge of something she can't take back. A secret that could destroy them both. A war that's already chosen its casualties.

Remus Lupin is going to break her heart.

She just doesn't care anymore.
