A Luna of fire Lady Katherine
Averys POV Kane and I dressed up quickly after the whole debacle in the office, still basking in the afterglow of our engagement and our sexy time. Despite the looming chaos with Kane’s step mother, Lady Katherine, I found myself smiling as I slipped on my dress. The diamond ring on my finger glittered brightly, catching my eye, and I felt a warmth in my chest just thinking about what it symbolized.I was getting married. And I was getting married to Kane.Kane was already waiting by the door, looking as handsome as ever, and he gave me a soft smile when he saw me. “Ready?” he asked, offering me his arm.“Ready,” I said, slipping my hand through his arm as we headed out to meet our friends for lunch. It was a welcome distraction, and I was looking forward to spending some time with Marie and Brianne to make sure they were okay after the incident at the northern court. I just really hoped everything wouldn’t get derailed by more court or that Gerald drama.The moment we walked
A Luna of fire Mother in law
Avery’s POV Kane grimaced slightly at the announcement, and I could feel my own body tensing up in response. Brianne was standing as still as a statue, but her eyes never left Priscilla, who was still pressed up against Zander.Greyson and Marie just kept glancing between us worriedly.“That’s… unexpected,” Kane finally said, while his tone neutral.Lady Katherine’s smile remained firmly in place even though I knew she could hear the displeasure lacing his words. “Yes, well, I thought it would be a good opportunity to help your future queen prepare for her role, plus for Priscilla to get to know everyone here. She’s been a great help to me over the years.”The way she said it made me feel like this Priscilla had a lot more to do with the trip than Lady Katherine.I glanced at Brianne, worried about how she was handling this. She hadn’t said a word, but the look in her eyes told me everything I needed to know. This wasn’t going to be easy.As Lady Katherine and Kane began to sp
A Luna of fire James and Dorian
James’s POV I couldn’t believe what Dorian was saying. He and Avery were mates? When? How? Why?! But the most troubling thing was the fact that he was talking about claiming her from Kane. That was downright madness! I stared at Dorian, my heart pounding in my chest as I realized what I was about to say. I hated it. But this was for the best. “You need to reject Avery.” Dorian's eyes widened and then he snarled at me. “What the fuck did you just say?” His voice was full of disbelief. “You heard me.” I forced the words out, even though they tasted painful to me too. “For the sake of peace. For the sake of the packs. You have to reject her.” Dorian's expression hardened, and he shook his head. “No. I’m not rejecting her. I can’t, James. It's like you don't understand that She’s my fated mate. The one the goddess specially designed for me. I love her too much to let her go." He declared firmly. I sighed as I felt a headache began to grow in my temples. “Dorian, y
A Luna of fire Disastrous dinner
Avery’s POV Two days had passed since Lady Katherine had arrived, and I’d been upset ever since our tense conversation. It wasn’t just her words that had gotten to me—it was her presence, looming over every moment of the day. She’d made a habit of monopolizing Kane’s time, always pulling him into long conversations or meetings, making sure no one else had a chance to take his attention. It was like she was trying to sink her claws back into him, trying to regain control over the King and, perhaps, the crown again.It had gotten so bad that even Sophie, who usually loved to stir up trouble with her bratty attitude, had gone quiet. She seemed just as frustrated as I was with Katherine constantly being around Kane. Sophie hadn’t even bothered trying to be rude to me—she was too busy sulking whenever Lady Katherine was near.That evening, I was curled up on the couch in the library, trying to lose myself in a book. The words were blurring together, my mind too distracted by ev
A Luna of fire Hestia’s history
Avery’s POV Days have passed since the fight at dinner, and things have been a little less uneasy. Brianne and Zander are still not talking. It’s almost like they’ve set up a silent treaty to avoid each other entirely. I’ve been trying to stay out of it, hoping they’d work things out on their own, but the tension is growing too much. Every time Brianne and Zander are in the same room, it’s like watching a slow-motion collision. They barely seem to want to be in each other’s presence. It’s more than just avoiding eye contact; it’s like they’re actively trying to not be near one another. In fact, Zander even makes a point to change direction when he sees Brianne coming, and while she tries to appear strong, the hurt on her face is something I never fail to see.It’s particularly painful to watch when Brianne looks over and sees Zander with his old friend Priscilla. They’ve known each other for years, and everyone can see how annoyingly comfortable they are with each other. Th
A Luna of fire Facing the blight
Avery’s POV He sighed heavily, rubbing his temples before meeting my gaze. “It’s the annual Northern Harvest Festival. With the blight wreaking havoc, we’re facing a dire situation. The crops and animals are suffering. It’s going to be impossible to hold the festival this year. People are too hungry and exhausted to celebrate.”I nodded, recalling from the books his mother forced on me how crucial these festivals were. They weren’t just about celebration—they were a beacon of hope, a chance for the people to come together and see that their leaders cared. Without it, morale could sink, and faith in Kane’s leadership might wane.“I understand why you’re worried,” I said softly. “Festivals like this are more than just traditions. They’re vital for keeping the people’s spirits up. If we skip it, it might send the wrong message—that we’re not doing enough to help them.”Kane looked at me with gratitude for understanding where he was coming from. But then he became frustrated. “I know
A Luna of fire Katherine’s past
. Avery’s POV “What…what happened?” Brianne’s voice trembled with shock, and I could only shake my head. I didn’t have an answer. But one thing was clear—I had done that. Somehow, I had cured that small patch of land from the Blight, just like Kane always said i would. “We need to get back to Kane,” I said, my voice steadier than I felt. “He needs to know about this.” The ride back to the castle was a blur. My mind raced with possibilities. If I could heal the land, if my power could dispel the blight, then maybe…maybe we really actually have a chance. Maybe this wasn’t the end. When we arrived, I rushed to Kane’s office, my heart pounding in my chest. Lucian was with him, and as soon as I explained what had happened, they both looked at me with a mixture of shock and hope. “Holy shit! You’re truly ARE the cure,” Lucian said, his voice filled with awe. “You really are the key to stopping this.” He said it like he was only finally believing it after all this time, I cou
A Luna of fire Official announcement
Avery’s POV Katherine smiled knowingly. “Don’t you know yet? You’re pregnant.” She revealed.Brianne gasped and her hand flew to her mouth. “What? How do you know?”Yea I thought, because I and Marie were itching to know too.Katherine chuckled softly. “As a Luna, I have helped dozens of women give birth, dear. I know the signs. I’m surprised you haven’t noticed it yourself.”Brianne looked at us, panic and disbelief in her eyes. “I… I need to take a test. I need to be sure.” I nodded immediately “Let’s do it now,” Marie suggested, her voice calm but excited. “We’ll all wait with you.”We followed Brianne to her room, where she shakily took the test. The minutes seemed to drag on forever as we waited. Finally, Marie checked the result and broke into a huge grin.“Brianne… you’re pregnant!”The room erupted in laughter, tears, and congratulations. Brianne burst into tears, she clearly felt both joy and fear in that moment.“I always wanted children,” she sobbed. “But Ron… h

Author’s note: Hii, thank you so much for reading so far, I’ll really love to continue this book and extend it, but that’ll only happen if you leave a comment asking me to extend it. Avery’s POV “What happens if they do?” I asked, but my voice was barely above a whisper. Kane hesitated for a moment before answering, “Dethronement.” And in that moment, I could see that his eyes were filled with a look of utter dread and resignation. The word hung in the air between us, heavy and ominous. If he was found guilty, Kane would lose everything—his title, his people, his entire life. My chest tightened with fear at the thought. I couldn’t let that happen to him “No,” I said firmly, shaking my head. “That’s not going to happen. We’ll fight this, Kane and we'll win. We'll find which ever asshole is behind this, and we'll end THEM. Trust me on this Kane." I begged.

A Luna of fire Frame up
Avery’s POV He stepped back to admire his handiwork, his eyes raking over me with a predatory hunger that made my breath hitch. I pulled experimentally at the restraints, but they held firm. I was at his mercy now, and the realization sent a wave of heat straight to my core. “Comfortable?” he asked, his tone mocking as he moved back toward the bed. I gave him a defiant look. “You’re enjoying this too much.” “And you’re enjoying pretending you’re not,” he shot back, climbing onto the bed and positioning himself above me. His hands roamed over my body, lingering on the places he knew drove me crazy, teasing me with just the right amount of pressure to make me squirm. “Maybe I am,” I admitted, my voice breathy as I felt his hands slide lower. “But that doesn’t mean I’m going to make it easy for you.” Kane’s eyes darkened with desire as he leaned in closer, his lips brushing against mine. “Oh, I don’t want easy. I want to see you break my Nuri.” His words sent a delici
A Luna of fire An attack
Avery’s POV I woke up to Kane’s soft kisses brushing over my skin, gentle and warm, sending shivers down my spine. His lips moved slowly, from my shoulder to my neck, trailing up to my jawline, each kiss making my heart race. A smile crept onto my face before I even opened my eyes, the sensation filling me with a giddy excitement, like we had just discovered our love for the first time.“Kane…” I murmured sleepily, turning to face him. The sight of him, his dark eyes filled with warmth and affection, made me catch my breath. My twin flame. The other half of my soul. It was still hard to believe that the goddess had united us in this way, that our bond went so much deeper than I had ever imagined.“Morning, love,” he whispered, his voice low and husky. “I couldn’t help myself. You were just too tempting.”I laughed softly, brushing my fingers through his hair. “You’re the tempting one.”His gaze grew more intense, and for a moment, I was lost in it, in him. I could feel the connectio
A Luna of fire Twin flames
Kane’s POVAs I stood in the grand hall, watching Avery make her entrance, I couldn’t help but feel immense pride. She was breathtaking, draped in an elegant gown that shimmered under the lights. Her presence commanded the attention of everyone in the room, and I knew that choosing her as my queen was the best decision I’d ever made.When I announced our engagement, the pride I felt was overwhelming. Most of the pack had reacted with awe and admiration for her. Though I noticed a few disapproving glances, they were drowned out by the applause and the stream of congratulations. My chest swelled with satisfaction. Avery wasn’t just my choice; she was proving herself to be the people’s choice as well.And why wouldn’t they see her value? She was intelligent, compassionate, and stronger than most could imagine. She’d already done so much for the northern lands. From the moment she stepped up to help with the blight, the people saw her not just as their future Luna but as a beacon of ho
A Luna of fire In Dorian’s mind
Dorian’s POV I rolled my eyes as I glanced out the window. Outside, a group of women were gathered in the garden, chattering away, fluttering around my estate as if they were the mistresses of the house. They were dressed in their finest, giggling and casting glances toward my home, hoping I'd notice them. I didn’t.I ignored their attempts to get my attention because they were nothing more than pawns. The only reason I kept them around was because their families were powerful. Greedy nobles, all of them, hungry for status and favor. If I let them believe that, when I became king, I might marry one of their daughters, then they’d remain loyal. And I needed their loyalty, even if it was built on lies.But that wasn’t going to happen. Marriage? To one of them? No. I only wanted one woman. The woman who had consumed my every thought, every breath, since the day I laid eyes on her.Avery.She was the reason I was willing to start this war. Yes, there were other reasons. Things I h
