A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Hatred between brothers.
Tamara's POV Dante’s hand was like iron around my wrist as he dragged me out of the courtroom, his fury radiating off him in waves and everyone around us backed away immediately. I barely had time to process what had just happened before Reuben stormed after us, his face twisted with anger. “You have no right to disrupt the court like that, Dante!” Reuben’s voice echoed through the empty hallway. “What the hell are you doing?” Dante spun on his heel, his grip on my wrist loosening but his fury growing. “What am I doing? What the fuck are you doing, Reuben? That wasn’t a court hearing—it was an illegal setup against my fiancée!” Reuben’s eyes narrowed. “That’s just ridiculous. We were simply following protocol. Tamara has questions to answer. You can’t just storm in and stop the process.” “Questions based on fabricated evidence!” Dante’s voice was a growl now, sharp enough to make me flinch. “Lord Jarek couldn’t even explain how he got that vial, and you expect me to belie
Last Updated : 2024-11-15A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Dante is vulnerable
Tamara’s POV For the first time since I’d met Dante, this waacthe first time i saw something crack in his armor. This was the first time that he showed he could feel really shitty too. As we sat in the car, his posture stiff, his face grim, there was a flicker of vulnerability in his eyes that struck me harder than any harsh word or glare he’d ever thrown my way. It was raw, unguarded, and it made my chest tighten. He looked like a young boy in so much pain. Dante had always been so strong, so unshakable. Seeing him like this, like the weight of the world had finally pressed too hard on his shoulders, made my heart ache. The drive to the hotel was quiet, the air heavy with unspoken words. I didn’t push him. I just held his hand, tracing my thumb over his knuckles. When we finally arrived, Dante got out without a word, his shoulders tense, his jaw clenched. As soon as we entered the room, I turned to him. “Come on,” I said softly, taking his hand and leading him toward the bath
Last Updated : 2024-11-15A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance The truth about how it all started
Tamara's POV I sat across from Dante, the low flicker of the fireplace casting shadows across his face. His jaw was tight, his eyes distant, as if he were somewhere else entirely. I could feel the weight of what he was about to say before he even opened his mouth.“I want to know everything,” I said, my voice steady. “From the beginning. How did my mother even have any connection with the North?”Dante’s gaze flicked to me, then down to his hands resting on his knees. He hesitated, and I could tell he was choosing his words carefully.“Tamara,” he started, his voice low and cautious, “what I’m about to tell you... some of it might not be fact. A lot of it is based on what I was told or things I pieced together later. There’s no way to confirm everything.”I frowned, leaning forward. “i know You’re trying to protect me again,” I said, my tone more frustrated than I intended. “But I don’t need that, Dante. I need the truth, no matter how ugly it is. I can handle it.”He studied me for
Last Updated : 2024-11-16A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance My secrets
Tamara’s POVI woke up early the next day. Dante was still fast asleep beside me, his arm draped protectively over my waist. His breathing was steady, peaceful, and I smiled to myself as I carefully slipped out of bed. For everything he’d done for me—his patience, his care—I wanted to show him that I could be there for him too.I tiptoed to the kitchen in our suite, determined to make breakfast. It definitely wasn’t my strongest skill, but I was set on doing something special. Pancakes, eggs, and a pot of fresh coffee later, I carefully arranged everything on a tray and carried it back to the bedroom.“Morning,” I said softly, nudging Dante’s shoulder with my free hand. He stirred, his lashes fluttering open, and when his gaze landed on me, his lips curved into a sleepy smile.“What’s this?” he asked, his voice still rough from sleep.“Breakfast,” I said, setting the tray on the bed beside him. “Like you did for me before, remember?”Dante pushed himself up, his eyes crinkling with am
Last Updated : 2024-11-16A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance He knows
Tamara’s POVI stared at Dante, completely speechless. The space around me felt smaller somehow, the air heavy with the weight of his words. He knew. All this time, he knew the vial was mine, knew I had secrets, and yet he never said a word.“I—” I started, but my voice faltered. “You knew?”Dante nodded, his expression calm but serious. “I’ve known for a while, Tamara.”My stomach churned. “I... I’m so sorry,” I said, my voice barely above a whisper. “I shouldn’t have kept secrets from you. You didn’t deserve that.” I looked down at my hands, guilt pooling in my chest. “But having secrets doesn’t mean I don’t love you, Dante. It doesn’t mean I’m not loyal to you, I swear by the goddess that your the love of my life and I would never ever do anything to hurt you or your mother.” I pleaded with tears beginning to form in my eyes.Dante surprised me by reaching out and tilting my chin up, forcing me to meet his gaze. His dark eyes were steady, unwavering. “Oh sweetheart, I know that,” h
Last Updated : 2024-11-17A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Dante's guilty
Tamara's POVThe silence was unbearable. Dante hadn’t moved, hadn’t spoken. His hand was still wrapped around mine, but his grip was so still, so tense, it felt as if he were frozen in place. My heart thudded against my ribs, and every second that ticked by only made the knot in my stomach tighten.“Dante,” I whispered, my voice trembling. “Please, say something. Anything.”His dark eyes snapped to mine, intense and unreadable. “What do you mean, ‘when you died’?” he asked, his voice calm but laced with a quiet demand.I sucked in a shaky breath, my mind racing. How could I possibly explain this? My fingers trembled in his, and I pulled my hand away to clasp them in my lap, as if holding onto myself would steady my nerves. “This is… this is my second life,” I finally said, the words tasting foreign on my tongue even after all this time.His brows furrowed, and I could see the questions forming in his eyes. “your Second life?”I nodded, swallowing hard. “Yes, I died, Dante. In my past
Last Updated : 2024-11-17A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Dante's secret
Tamara’s POV I stared at Dante in shock, his words replaying in my head like a broken record. "It’s my fault that you and your baby were killed." “What are you talking about?” I finally asked, my voice trembling. “How could it be your fault? Dante, we only met once in our past lives. And that was… on the battlefield.” His head snapped toward me, his eyes wide in shock. “We were at war?” I hesitated, biting my lip. I hadn’t meant to say that much. “Yes,” I admitted softly. “But it wasn’t what you think. Jack told me you were attacking our pack. He convinced me that if I didn’t act first, you’d destroy us.” I lowered my gaze. “So, I sent my people to fight you.” Dante’s jaw tightened, his eyes narrowing as realization dawned. “Jack lied to you,” he said, his voice full of bitter certainty. “He played us both.” I nodded, my throat tightening. “I only found out too late. By then…” My voice cracked, and I looked away, unable to meet his gaze. “By then, everyone I loved was already g
Last Updated : 2024-11-18A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance How they first met
Dante’s POVI watched Tamara, her shock and confusion was practically flashing across her face, and I knew there was no easy way to explain what I was about to tell her. Still, she deserved the truth—everything.“You remember when I told you I was closely working with my brother before and during the war?” I began carefully, keeping my voice steady.Tamara nodded slowly, her eyes narrowing as if she were trying to piece together a puzzle. “Yes, I remember. You said you were helping him, or something like that.”“it wasn't just plain paper work though,” I explained, “I wasn’t just some advisor, Tamara. I was his general.”Her eyebrows shot up, her lips parting in surprise. “General? But… weren’t you—”“Young?” I finished for her, a small, humorless smile tugging at my lips. “I was. Too young, some would say. But I was also good—better than anyone else my brother could trust. I was always an excellent fighter, and strategy came naturally to me. Even when I was still a teenager, I could

A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Kayla defends Adrian
Kayla's POV The night passes in a fevered haze. I drift in and out of sleep beside Adrian’s bed, listening to each steady breath. By the third watch, I’m so exhausted I’m not sure what’s dream and what’s waking life. But then I smell it—smoke, simmering wood. My eyes snap open. My heart hammers in my ears. Adrian is quiet, as if he’s sleeping peacefully, unaware of the danger. I slip quietly from the sheets and pad across the cold floor to the window. Outside, the palace gardens are shrouded in moonlight and shadow. Movement—too many shapes. Rogues. My chest twists in fear. They’re back. Their abnormal forms slinking between hedges, circling the building. They’ve come for Adrian. For me. For both of us. Despite every aching muscle, despite the fog in my mind, I know I can’t just sit here. I have to protect him. I pull the necklace from beneath my tunic and wrap it around my neck, feeling the surge of power it brings. A low hum fills my ears, and the runes glimmer brighter. Th
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Adrian's bed side
Adrian's POV I stay at Adrian’s bedside all day, barely blinking. His skin is was ashen—more gray than the pale it usually turns when he’s sick—and I can’t keep the guilt from twisting in my chest every time I look at him. My own problems and issues him here; if I hadn’t been such a liability, none of this would be happening. The head doctor, which was the name sake of my former doctor.... Dr Marcus came to help. Dr. Marcus paced at the foot of the bed with his arms folded. I caught him whispering to his nurse, then he cleared his throat and met my eyes. “Luna,” he says gently, “we’ve run every test we can on the Alpha. His body just doesn’t have the reserves to fight this poison. Normally a healthy Alpha would burn it out on his own, but right now… we need something else.” I shake my head, my hair falling into my eyes. “There must be something. Some antidote—” He offers me a sad smile. “I’m sorry, Luna. I wish there was. We’ll keep treating him, but unless his cells
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Hector's Change
Hector's POVAs much as it stung, as much as it hurt to face the truth, I knew what I had to do. I had to stop fighting Adrian. I had to fix the broken relationship between us, because Kayla clearly loved him, and I loved her. But I couldn’t keep pretending that there was a chance for us when I knew she would never choose me. But the best I could do was to stop causing her pain. I wasn’t going to stand in the way of her happiness. I would stand by her, even if it meant watching her choose Adrian over me. I would help them too, because that’s what mattered now. I had no idea what the future held, but I knew I couldn’t keep living in the shadow of my father’s legacy or my jealousy. I had to be better, for myself and for the Southern Pack. Maybe, just maybe, this was the beginning of something better. -- As the journey back to the Southern Pack started, I couldn’t shake the unease in my chest. Kayla’s mind was elsewhere, focused solely on getting back to Adrian. I couldn’t b
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Hector's acceptance
Hector's POV I couldn’t stop thinking about what Kayla had said to me at the waterfall. Her words kept echoing in my mind so sharply and so painfully, like a blade that refused to dull. It hurt, and as much as I wanted to push it away, I couldn’t because deep down, I knew she was right. I had royally fucked up. I knew it the moment my lips met hers, even though it wasn’t something I had planned.It had happened in a split second, I glanced down at her and It was like everything inside me had snapped. I had watched her being so vulnerable, her tears soaking into my shirt as she leaned on me. I could feel her brokenness, and for a moment, I thought—maybe this was it. Maybe she finally needed me, maybe she would finally see that I was there for her, that I would always be there unlike Adrian. And then I kissed her. She pulled away in disgust, her face twisted in anger, and I immediately realized I had just done everything wrong. I had taken advantage of a moment when she was
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance The necklace of doom
Kayla's POV The Oracle reached out and took something from a hidden pocket within her robe. It was a necklace — a delicate chain with a stone that glowed faintly in the light. It was unlike anything I had ever seen before, carved with intricate runes I couldn’t recognize. “This will help you,” she said, handing it to me. “It will regulate your power, help you control it when it surges too much or refuses to be called up on, But you must be careful. The more you channel through it, the more it will feed into you.” I took the necklace, my fingers brushing against the cool stone. It felt alive, pulsing with an energy of its own. “What do you mean? What do you mean by ‘feed into me’?” “The necklace is only a tool,” the Oracle warned, her voice grave. “It will help you control the power, but if you rely on it too much, it will start to control you. This is not just a necklace, it is a sentient being that craves power. When you use it, you must not over use it up to the point that it
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Going back to Adrian
Kayla's POV The Oracle’s eyes studied me with an intensity that made me want to shrink back, but I stood my ground. She clearly thought this was a bad idea but I didn't care. My determination to get back to the pack, to Adrian, was crystal clear. I wasn’t about to let anything stop me. “You are a very stubborn woman,” she finally said, her voice soft but full of wisdom. “I see it in you, Kayla. You are determined, fearless even, but you are also walking straight into a storm.” Her words made me feel both complimented and and scolded, but I knew she was right. I had already sensed that danger was waiting for me. I’d felt the pull of it in my gut, but I couldn’t sit here and wait. Adrian needed me, and I wasn’t about to abandon him, no matter how many risks I had to take. “I know,” I muttered, shifting on my feet uncomfortably. “But I have to go.” The Oracle sighed, a soft, almost resigned sound. “I admire your courage, but courage alone will not keep you alive. You will nee
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Dreaming of Adrian's attack
Kayla's POV After my fight with Hector, My thoughts became so dark that I ended up pacing the edge of the sanctuary for hours.I just wanted to be alone to sort out my depressing thoughts.Depression, anxiety and despair were a horrible mixture to have. I didn't know what I was supposed to do next. To train or not to train, to go to Adrian or stay away from him.It felt like every option I chose would go horribly wrong. I was now more lost than before I even came here.Later that evening, I had to force myself to return to the camp side of the sanctuary.Ingrid was waiting for me in front of my room with worry in her eyes. She had that look on her face, the one she wore when she knew something was off. “Luna Kayla,” she said softly, standing up as I walked into the camp. “Are you okay?” I gave her a small smile, but it didn’t reach my eyes. “Yeah, I’m fine.” She didn’t seem convinced. “Did something happen? You were gone for a while.” I bit my lip, trying to push away the feeling
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Dealing with Hector's kiss
Kayla's POV I don’t even know how it happened. One second, I was standing there, sobbing into Hector's shirt while standing beside the water cascading down the rocks, and the next, Hector’s lips were pressed against mine with his tongue in my mouth.It took me completely by surprise and I froze. My pause made it seem like I wanted it to happen, but that was absolutely not true!He wasn’t supposed to do that. He wasn't supposed to take advantage of my vulnerability just because I was opening up to him.My heart was already tangled up in my fears of loving Adrian, and I definitely didn’t need this confusion. His lips lingered for a second too long before I shoved him away with both hands, the force of my push making both of us stumble back a step. I glared at him, barely holding my anger in check. “What the hell, Hector?” I snapped, feeling my pulse race with frustration. “What the fuck do you think you’re doing?” He blinked a couple of times, as though trying to read my face, tryi
A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance Adrian is hurt
Adrian's POV: I stared at my phone, the message from Xavier glaring at me from the screen. "We need to talk. I have something to tell you about Kayla and the enemy hunting her. Meet me at the old clearing by the edge of the forest. Midnight. Alone." I rolled my eyes, the familiar sense of irritation crawling under my skin. Why would he want to help me now? What the hell does he want? And why the hell did he want me alone? I could feel my anger simmering, but I also knew this could be important. Kayla was all that had been on my mind nonstop lately, and if Xavier thought he could help ... or use her against me… well, I wasn’t about to sit back and do nothing. But the thought of meeting him alone? That didn’t sit well with me. “You want me to go alone?” I muttered under my breath, more to myself than anyone else. I didn’t trust Xavier for a second, and I certainly wasn’t about to walk into a trap with just me and him. My first instinct was to call in my men, get backup, but some
