A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance A child of prophecy
Kayla's POVI watched with a lump in my throat as Candice continued to stroke Alpha Adrian’s arm, her delicate fingers trailing up and down as if she had every right to touch him so intimately in front of everyone. My stomach twisted, and I had no idea why. It wasn’t jealousy—I had no reason to feel that way. But something about the way she clung to him like he was hers made my skin crawl.Candice batted her lashes at him even more. “So… does this mean I’m no longer banned from the boutique?” Her voice was sultry, dripping with fake sweetness. She tilted her head, pressing herself subtly against his side.I expected Adrian to give in, to let this go like most men would when a beautiful woman pouted at them. But instead, he shocked everyone.“No,” Adrian said firmly. “You’re still banned. You must be punished for lying about my guest.”Candice stiffened, her expression twisting from seductive to furious in an instant. Her nails dug into his sleeve before she yanked her hand back like

Kayla’s POV Darkness surrounded me, pulling me under like an deadly sea. But faint voices echoed in the distance, breaking through the void. “Kayla! Stay with me, damn it!” That voice. Deep, rough with panic. Alpha Adrian. I felt my body being lifted, strong arms holding me tightly. My head lolled against a firm chest as the sound of hurried footsteps and frantic voices filled the air. “She passed out from pain—get out of my way!” Adrian snarled. “Alpha—” “I don’t want one doctor—I want two! I want the best medical team working on her immediately,” he barked. “I don’t care what it takes. She needs the best treatment possible.” The desperation in his voice sent a dull ache through my chest. The best treatment. A cruel memory suddenly resurfaced—one I had buried deep inside. “Doctor, treat Mia first,” Xavier’s cold voice had rung through the hospital room. “She’s carrying my child.” I had been lying on the hospital bed, barely conscious, blood soaking through my gown. My bod

Kayla’s POVThe hospital air smelled sterile, the walls too white, the bedsheets too stiff. I should have been relieved to be leaving, but instead, my body felt heavier than it had ever been.The moment I stepped outside the hospital doors, the warm afternoon breeze touched my skin, but even that couldn’t lift the weight pressing down on my chest.Then I saw him.Alpha Adrian stood by a sleek black SUV, his sharp golden eyes locked onto me the second I appeared. He wasn’t just here to send someone to pick me up—he had come himself.He was leaning against the car, arms crossed, but as soon as he saw me, he straightened and strode forward. Without a word, he carefully lifted me into his arms.“Adrian, I can walk,” I muttered, my voice weak.“You don’t have to,” he said simply, carrying me as if I weighed nothing.I was too tired to argue.He gently placed me in the passenger seat, buckled my seatbelt himself, and only after making sure I was comfortable did he walk around to the driver’

Kayla’s POVEver since Adrian's mother, who I heard is called Lady Catherine told Adrian about his stepbrother’s visit, something about him had changed.He was still attentive—still the man who carried me to bed, still the man who wiped my face with a warm towel when I was too drained to do it myself. But now, there was an edge to him, a restlessness he couldn’t seem to shake.I caught it in the way his eyes darkened even more when he thought no one was looking, in the way his fingers drummed against the wooden desk when he sat with me during meals.A week had passed, and I had mostly recovered. My body was still adjusting, but I was strong enough to move around on my own now.And yet, Adrian still insisted on tending to me.The only thing he didn’t do was help me in the bathroom. That was the one thing he let Ingrid handle.Which gave me an idea.When Adrian was in the middle of brushing my hair—something he had stubbornly taken upon himself—I cleared my throat. “I need to use the re

Kayla’s POV“Ingrid, are you sure about this?” I asked, eyeing the dress she had just laid out for me.She sighed dramatically. “Luna Kayla, you’ve asked me that three times already.”I bit my lip. “I just… I want everything to go right. I don’t want to cause Adrian any more stress.”Ingrid turned to me, hands on her hips. “Adrian invited you to this. He wants you there. And you’re doing this for him, right?”I nodded. “Right.”“Then stop worrying.” She patted the dress. “Now, get changed. We don’t have much time.”With a deep breath, I took the dress and stepped behind the privacy screen.As I changed, I thought about Adrian—how he had been these past few days.Even after I recovered, he had still been… kind. Attentive. Caring.He still brought me meals, even though I was perfectly capable of getting them myself. He still tucked me in at night, as if making sure I was safe before he could sleep.And he never let me feel like a burden.I wanted to pay him back, even if it was just by

Kayla’s POVI couldn’t move.Adrian's brother was stunning. Ingrid had previously told me that his name was Hector.He had the same powerful presence as Adrian, but there was something more… polished about him. His sharp jawline and piercing blue eyes made it impossible to look away.But it wasn’t just his looks that shocked me—it was the way he carried himself. Confident. Effortless. Like he already knew he owned the room. it stunned me.Then, another figure emerged from the car behind him.A woman.And not just any woman—a stunningly beautiful older woman.Her golden-blonde hair was styled in perfect waves, and her soft features were enhanced by flawless makeup. She moved with the grace of royalty, her long emerald-green dress flowing behind her like liquid silk.She stepped up beside Adrian's brother, her hand rested lightly on his arm.It soon became clear that this was Hector’s mother.Lady Elizabeth.“Oh, how lovely,” Lady Catherine sneered, her voice dripping with venom. “The s

Kayla’s POVI was fucking PISSED!.Not at Adrian.Not at his brother Hector of course.Not even at Candice and her annoying, manipulative ways.I was furious at myself!I couldn't believe that I fainted in front of Adrian's family! what is wrong with me?!!I don't want to be weak. I don't want to be seen as some fragile girl who needed to be carried around and protected. But here I was, waking up in a soft bed, feeling lightheaded and drained, because my own body had betrayed me.The worst part?I had passed out and woken up in Adrian’s arms... Again!I groaned and pressed a hand over my face. “I hate this.”A low chuckle rumbled beside me.“You hate that you’re injured? That's understandable but not your fault.” Adrian’s deep voice was laced with amusement.I turned my head to glare at him.He was sitting beside the bed, one arm resting on the chair, his sharp eyes watching me closely. His dark hair was slightly messy, like he had been running his fingers through it too much.“No,” I

Kayla’s POV "Kayla right?" A voice suddenly said behind me. I turned around to see Hector's handsome face beaming at me.That was the first time we bumped into each other. After that, I turned around and walked back to my room, still fuming about seeing Adrian and Candice. But after that day, I still kept bumping into him.like right now, This was the third time but I was getting really tired of bumping into Hector. It was like the universe had some sick sense of humor, forcing me into these run-ins with Adrian’s insufferably charming brother. And worse? Hector took full advantage of it. Like right now. I had just stepped out of the pack’s administrative office after helping Ingrid with some paperwork when I turned a corner— And smacked straight into a firm, muscular chest. A familiar chuckle rumbled in front of me. “Well, well. If it isn’t my favorite little distraction.” I knew that voice. I didn’t even have to look up. Hector. Of course. I took a deep breath, schooli

A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Hector's confession
Kayla’s POV I barely had time to process what was happening before a strong, unyielding arm blocked Leo’s attack. The force of the impact echoed through the shop, making Ingrid gasp beside me. Leo stumbled back, his wrist locked in a firm grip. But it wasn’t Adrian who had come to my rescue. It was Hector. He stood between us, his expression calm—but there was an unmistakable edge of danger in his eyes. He gripped Leo’s wrist so tightly that the nobleman’s face twisted in pain. “You must be getting bold, Leo,” Hector said, his voice smooth but laced with warning. “Trying to raise a hand against the Alpha's Fiancee in broad daylight?” Leo winced and tried to yank his arm free, but Hector’s grip didn’t budge. “She’s overstepping,” Leo hissed. “Digging into pack finances like she has the right—” “The right?” Hector chuckled darkly, finally releasing him. “She’s engaged to Adrian. That gives her more right than you’ll ever have.” He stepped forward, forcing Leo to back away. “Yo

Kayla’s POV After my infuriating confrontation with Candice, I needed to calm down.And nothing helped clear my mind better than helping Ingrid sort out the records at the packs store.As I stepped inside, the familiar scent of parchment, ink, and old wood greeted me. Ingrid was behind the counter, scribbling something in a ledger. She looked up as soon as I walked in, and a slow, mischievous smile spread across her face.“Well, well, well,” she drawled. “Look who survived her first night with the Alpha.”I sighed, already starting to question my decision to come here. “I’m not in the mood, Ingrid.”She ignored me, closing the ledger with a soft thump. “So?” She leaned on the counter, eyes twinkling. “How was it?”I rolled my eyes and moved past her toward the back of the store, where the financial records were stacked. “Nothing happened.”“Liar.”I groaned. “Nothing. Happened.”She gasped dramatically. “You mean to tell me you spent the entire night alone in his bed, and you didn’t
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Standing ground
Kayla’s POVI barely made it outside before I crashed right into someone.“Oof—” I stumbled back, almost falling again, when a sharp hand caught my arm.“Watch where you’re going, idiot,” a familiar icy voice snapped.I barely had time to brace myself before I looked up into the cold, disapproving eyes of Candice."Oh, this morning just keeps getting better and better." AI thought sarcastically.Just what I needed after humiliating myself in front of Adrian.Candice released my arm like it was filthy, crossing her arms over her chest as she narrowed her gaze at me. She refused to move and I realized that she had something to say to me.I sighed, already exhausted by whatever drama she was about to throw my way. “What do you want, Candice?”She scoffed, flipping her silky blonde hair over her shoulder. “I wanted to talk to you alone.”I raised a brow. “And what? Ask me about my well being? or congratulate me on getting engaged to Adrian?”Her expression darkened. “Don’t be delusional,
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Awkward
Kayla’s POVSomething warm was wrapped around me.I stirred, my body still half-asleep, shifting slightly against the firm heat that surrounded me.Wait.My eyes snapped open.I was in Alpha Adrian’s arms.My entire body locked up as I processed the situation.His arms were wrapped around my waist, his chest pressed against my back. One of his hands was resting on my hip, his breathing slow and deep.I felt trapped.Not in a bad way.No—definitely not in a bad way.Heat rushed to my face as I realized that at some point in the night, I must have rolled over to his side.Oh, goddess, no.I wanted to brush it off as just a silly little accident, but— That wasn’t even the worst part.The worst part was the very present and very hard length pressed against my lower back.I sucked in a sharp breath.I froze completely, my face burning.Was he—? Was that his—?Oh. My. Goddess. I couldn’t move.I knew I should move. I should be mortified by this.But instead—Instead, I had the most inapprop
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Happy
Adrian’s POVFor a long moment, I just stared at the door, my whole body tensing with frustration.I clenched my fists so tightly my nails bit into my palms.For the second damn time—The second time—We had almost kissed.And again—again—someone had interrupted.I had never felt so fucking frustrated over something so simple.I wanted to punch the damn wall.Instead, I forced myself to take a slow, controlled breath before snapping, “I’m not in the mood for dinner!”I was in the mood for something else I realized as my gaze flickered to Kayla's lips again.There was a long pause outside the door before the maid mumbled a quick, nervous, “Understood, Alpha,” and scurried away.I exhaled sharply, pressing a hand to my temple.Then my gaze flickered back to Kayla.She was still right there, her wide eyes darting away shyly, her cheeks flushed.But what had my focus was her lips. The way they were still parted slightly, soft and inviting.I wanted to taste them. Hell, I wanted to do more
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Massage
Kayla’s POV As soon as the door shut behind Ingrid, I let out a breath I hadn’t even realized I was holding. My fingers gripped my dress tightly, and I sank onto the edge of the bed, my heart still racing.What had just happened?A while ago, I had been standing half-naked in front of Alpha Adrian.I swallowed hard, feeling the heat rush back to my face at the memory.I had become painfully aware of the fact that I was wearing nothing but a towel. The realization had made me stiffen, my body locking up in embarrassment.I had refused to look at him. But that hadn’t stopped me from feeling his gaze on me.It had been intense. Heavy. Almost scorching.Even when I had looked away, I had felt it. Felt the way his dark eyes had slowly taken me in, as if he was seeing far more than just my damp skin.A shiver ran down my spine.And now I was alone—but the heat from his stare still lingered.I needed to clear my head. And I needed to get out of this room that smelt like him.When I stepped
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Delusion and guilt
Alpha Xavier's POV The second I slammed the car door shut, my hands gripped the wheel so tightly my knuckles turned white.I could still hear Mia’s voice in my head."She doesn’t belong to you, Xavier. She never will."I clenched my jaw, my chest heaving with barely contained rage.She was wrong. Kayla was mine.She had always been mine, and I wasn’t going to let Adrian keep her from me.If I couldn’t enter the South as an Alpha, I’d do it another way.No one was going to stop me from seeing her.I took a deep breath, started the car, and sped out of the pack grounds.I wasn’t thinking—I was acting.The drive to the Southern border was long, but I barely noticed. My mind was racing with plans, scenarios, excuses.By the time I neared the heavily guarded entrance to Adrian’s territory, I had already decided on my approach.I would lie.I wasn’t Alpha Xavier tonight. I wasn’t a man trying to take back what was his.I was just someone passing through on business.I pulled up to the chec
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Delusion
Alpha Xavier’s POVI gripped the edge of my desk so hard my knuckles turned white. My wolf snarled in my head, barely contained beneath my skin.That fucking bastard.That smug, conniving slimy bastard!I just got news that Alpha Adrian had refused my request to come claim the resources.A muscle ticked in my jaw as I read his Gamma Logan’s message again, as if the words would change:"Alpha Adrian regrets to inform you that he is unable to accommodate your request at this time due to internal matters. A new arrangement will be discussed soon."Bullshit.This wasn’t about internal matters.This was about Kayla.I had planned everything perfectly. I had intended to use the trip as an excuse—to get into Adrian’s territory, to see her again.Now Adrian was blocking me from going.Why?Was he trying to keep her from me?A growl rumbled low in my throat. My fingers dug into the wood of my desk, the edges beginning to splinter beneath the pressure.Kayla was mine.She had always been mine.
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Missing women
Adrian’s POVThe moment Candice stormed out, I exhaled through my nose, rubbing my temples.She was a damn headache, always had been, but this? Fighting with Kayla? That was crossing a line.A part of me wanted to drag her back and remind her—no, make her understand—that Kayla was mine now.But then my gaze flickered to Kayla.Half-naked in my room.Her towel barely clung to her curves, exposing smooth skin that made my fingers itch to touch her. My wolf stirred, watching her just as intensely as I was.She was stunning, standing there, defiant despite what had just happened. My future wife.Arranged marriage or not, I never wanted her to leave.I wasn’t supposed to feel like this. This whole thing was just a deal—a political arrangement—but looking at her now?I was excited.Hell, more than excited.I was desperate for this marriage to be permanent.I wondered if fate was playing with me—either pushing us together or laughing as it tried to pull us apart.Kayla turned toward Ingrid,
