Harlyn thought her life would finally change for the better after a night with the alpha king who marked her, claiming her to be his. If only she knew what awaited her. She was supposed to be a quick lay, to satisfy his urge but it felt so good to be with her that he lost his senses for a moment and sank his fangs into her neck, marking her and accidentally claiming her as his. But he couldn’t keep her, she was of no use to him socially, she was a lonely orphan who wasn’t able to fully transform after she turned eighteen and therefore had no place in his elite life. He was the alpha king and he could only pick a mate that matched his status. There was only one thing to do. Reject her. That didn’t play out like he had imagined. And just like that, a whole new journey begins for the both of them.

I deserve a break don’t I?”He asked Damien while walking me further into his office. I haven’t been here since the renovation after what happened with Sean. I can’t believe this was where it all really started. Thank Goddess that he called me into his office that day. Even if I hated meeting that uncle of his, the meeting still helped expose him.“Thank goodness that you are here because I was about to take over your office and make new laws for Crimson Moon. Your assistant has been looking at me funny all morning.”Damien said just as Bernardo’s assistant walked in. he bowed to the king and me.“Is that my schedule for today? Why does it look so fucking scary? I told you to use a tablet! I hate seeing
Harlyn “Let them, I mean, it’s not like I did anything wrong. It’s better than being an orgy king.” I burst out laughing. I couldn’t stop myself. Did he get a lot funnier or am I just too blinded by love to think straight? Either way, I love this side of us. Glad we can make jokes about everything. My eyes met the staff and I realized I laughed at something he said through our mind link which made me laugh awkwardly. “Are you really going to keep talking about that orgy thing?” I thought as he pulled me along with him out of the dining room. “Yes, for as long as I live it will haunt me and I will haunt you with it.” I shook my head at him. “Okay, you can do what you want but just know that they are still going to tell on you.” I reminded him. “And I said that I don’t mind. If not, I would have had them sent to the dungeon and threatened with being beheaded if what happened ever gets out.” I stopped walking and stared at him. “What?” He asked out loud as if he didn’t just
Harlyn “Good morning my beautiful Luna.” I smiled when I heard the familiar voice. For the first time in a long time, I woke up to my mate in bed with me. His morning voice was the first thing I heard in the morning and I can’t remember the last time it happened. It made me emotional. “You are still here.” I whispered and blinked to make sure I wasn’t dreaming. Usually, he would be out of bed before I woke up and out doing his kingly duties. “Yes, I am still here. I have a lot to do today but I don’t feel like leaving our bed yet. There’s no need to rush. Did you sleep well?” He asked and kissed me on the forehead and that also made me emotional. Morning kisses. I get forehead kisses in the morning again. It felt refreshing in a lot of ways. “I slept better than I have in a while and it feels extra good to have you here with me. I can’t remember the last time I woke up to you in bed. One of the many cons of fucking the king.” He frowned at my choice of words. “Fucking?” He
Harlyn “I did? I don’t feel like I did anything, your sister did all the work. I only gave orders.” Here he goes again, downplaying what he has done. We were really made for each other since we are very good at downplaying what we do. I wasn’t about to let him get away with doing it this time. I placed a finger over his lips. “Don’t say that. You did well today and I am super proud of you.” I told him in a firm voice that left no room for disagreement. He smiled and nodded. Then he let out a sigh and finally set me down. He didn’t let me go completely. His arms remained wrapped around me while we both stared at each other. I reached and caressed his face. He looked so drained. “Have you eaten?” I asked him. he nodded. “I ate with Damien. He is very good at keeping me in check. Also, he said you might kill him if you find out about what he let me do. I told him that I would snitch.” Even tiredness didn’t take away the funny side of him. I love that for him and me. “What did he
Harlyn “Give him a little time, he is the alpha. He will call us soon.” My wolf told me. I sighed in agreement and watched as my family talked among themselves. “When are you going to find your mate? You are the only unmated person here.” Leah asked Helaine who smiled shyly and looked away. I smiled. Thank goodness that I wasn’t the only one who wanted her to be mated. She has refused to take me up on my cupid mission and I have aborted. I should probably call Hillan. I haven’t heard from him since they left and he wasn’t at the press conference with Bernardo so I just assumed that he left already. I will call him later. He did so much for the kingdom and I want to thank him. “I am not really at a place to find a mate right now.” Helaine answered. “Why not? There are many eligible males in the kingdom. This is the perfect place to find a mate.” Leah told her. “That’s not what I meant. I mean that I am not ready to find a mate yet. I still have to finish my residency
Harlyn“I should have known, Luna. I should have seen through him. Why didn’t I notice? I mean I never liked him but I never thought he would be so evil. How could he do that to them?” Leah cried, squeezing my hands until it hurt but I didn’t flinch. I kind of understood how she felt. Sean’s actions stole my family and my childhood, just like his actions did to her. She didn’t just lose her father, she had to watch her little brother lose his childhood too.“It’s not your fault. It’s no one’s fault. No one saw him like that. he played everyone who trusted him.” I croaked. It was hard not to cry when I think about what that man did to our families. He did so much damage and had not thought of stopping. If he wasn’t caught, if they weren’t caught, they would have done more damage to the royal family and the whole kingdom.“I know it’s not my fault but it’s hard to accept that even a year ago, they still took my family member away from me. If you hadn’t saved my son, they would have ta
Harlyn “Oh, he is hot.” Helaine commented when Bernardo came on the screen. My heart skipped a beat when he looked directly at the camera. Damn! He was hot for real and all mine. My wolf jumped, and my heart sang at the sight of him. I love him so much. “He loves us too.” My wolf whispered excitedly. That’s the best part of everything, the fact that he loves me so much too. It amazed me that the man standing in front of the podium staring at the camera was all mine. The man who’s the number one person in the kingdom owns my heart and the best part is that I own his too. Amazing couldn’t begin to describe how it made me feel. And when he started speaking. I listened with my ears and my heart. “I am standing before you tonight because I have a very important announcement to make.” He said after greeting the kingdom members. The common room was absolutely silent. Everyone had their focus on the TV and what the king had to say. “A few months ago, some very disturbing thing
Harlyn “Why are you worrying again?” Harry asked me. I turned to him and sighed. I couldn’t reach Bernardo. I couldn’t help but be worried. If everything was fine out there, then I should have been able to reach him. It was too silent in my head and I didn’t like it at all. I kept imagining things. Helaine and Harry told me that if her bite didn’t kill him, it might change and that would make him more dangerous than he already was. What if that happened and now, he has become stronger than Bernardo and everyone else? What if they can no longer defeat him? What if a repeat of what happened over two decades ago happens again? The thought of not being able to see Bernardo again kept me up on my feet. I couldn’t even hide my worries. “They will get him.” Harry encouraged me. I wish it was so easy to believe his words but right now, the only thing that will convince me will be to see my mate alive and well. To talk to him face to face. If that doesn’t happen anytime soon, I mig
Bernardo “That bitch.” He growled. I knew he was referring to Helaine. “You mean Helaine?” “No, Harlyn! She has been hiding her real self. Did you know?” His words came out in a rush. As if he was trying to speak before he lost all his strength again. “Oh, you still don’t know that you got the wrong twin? That wasn’t the Luna. That’s her twin.” I informed her. Even the delta us looked shocked at what I said. Not a lot of people knew about the other Zeta Ross’s kids. Not for long, once everything is sorted out, I will make an announcement that involves honoring the late Zeta again. After the announcement tonight, the next announcement and the others that will follow will only be about positive things, like the mating ritual and coronation ceremony. Also, the birth of a new royal baby. I actually look forward to that a lot. I look forward to holding my child in my hands. The future ruler of the Crimson Moon. That’s if he or she wants to be. I have made a promise to myself
Harlyn I rushed down towards the main palace in fear of what might become of me. I made a mistake today and it might lead to me either getting scolded which would be the lesser punishment for what I did or getting sent to the dungeon to receive at least ten lashes of cane. It was a horrific experience that I never wanted to happen to me. That's why I always made sure to do all my work on time and make sure to answer as soon as I am called but today, I made a mistake. I was called to the king’s chamber but before I could go, Princess Sophie, the alpha king’s younger stepsister called me and made me wash her feet which took longer than I expected. I thought she would at least tell her brother that she was the one that requested for me but she didn’t say anything and now I am going to face a very angry alpha king. Alpha Benardo is the alpha of the crimson moon pack and is known to be ruthless and unforgiven. Not only was he an alpha but he was king too. Many years ago, his forefathers ...
