HarlynI didn’t even expect him to react like that. I was just having an innocent thought about my friend. I didn’t even say it out loud. No way my thinking and worrying about Hilan made him jealous.“Why are you angry?” I thought. He looked at me and looked away. At least he was no longer clenching the spoon. I let out a heavy sigh.“What’s wrong?” Hilan asked. I didn’t even know that he had been watching me. I forced a smile.“Nothing, I am just sad that you have to leave so early.” I said. I made sure to lock Bernardo out of my thoughts. He was acting jealous and insensitive.“Don’t worry, the Orange Moon isn’t that far from where. I can always come back to say hi. If my sister is moving here then you will see me around even more,” He assured me. I nodded and smiled again.“The hell you will. Stay in your pack, Lovie,” Bernardo sneered. The man was just a big grumpy wolfie and there was no stopping him.“Yes, Your Majesty.” Hilan mocked. Bernardo growled and got the attention
Harlyn“Hey,” Harry said, coming to sit beside me. It was the first time we were speaking since I told him that Sophie and I were okay.“Hi,” I responded.“Are you really, okay?” He asked. I nodded.“I am. I am fine now. Everything that happened are all in the past,” I assured him. “That’s good to know. I spoke with Helaine earlier and she wants to meet you really soon,” Harry revealed. “Really? How do you feel about this whole thing? I mean, you didn’t know I existed until we saw each other,” I pointed out. He shook his head.“I knew.” I stared at him in confusion. From what Bernardo had told me, our mom passed away when they were still young so how would he know? “How?” I asked him. “Mom had a diary. When we got older, Helaine found it. Even before that, we always felt like we weren’t complete. The connection you felt when we first met. It has always been deeper with Helaine and me but we always knew there was a missing one and the diary proved us right but no one among
BernardoI watched Harlyn and her brother talk for a while before approaching them. I acted like a jerk earlier with her and she locked me out of her thoughts since. I couldn’t tell if she was pretending to be good or if she had already forgiven me for acting a jerk when she had been worried or Hilan.I should get used to the fact that Hilan will always be a big part of her life now. I let that happen when I sent her away. Plus, she accepted me back when she could have told me to go fuck myself. It was my wolf. fucker was jealous of even her brother touching her.When I saw Harry walk towards her earlier. I had to leave the room for a moment because of my jealous wolf. I always have had my wolf under control but when it comes to our mate, I sometimes lose that control.Not like I was putting the whole blame on him. I should have left her head when I realized he was jealous because she was worried for Hilan. Not to mention that Hilan wasn’t even a bad guy. He offered to help even thoug
HarlynI woke up the next morning alone in bed. I touched Bernardo’s side of the bed and realized that he had been up for a while now. I sat up and looked around the room.“Cons of fucking the king. No morning kisses or sex. He has to be up early for royal business.” I let out and passed my fingers through my messy hair. We stayed up late last night. I enjoyed every moment with Bernardo and even though he wasn’t in bed with me right now, my body was still feeling his presence.“You have a busy day today,” My wolf reminded me. She was especially happy today. I smiled when I remembered that I had to go shopping with Sophie and Ava. It would be the first time meeting Ava since the last time. I wasn’t a petty person but I wanted to see her face and know if she would lie about spending time with Bernardo like she used to. “Can’t believe we fell for her lies and you even cried about it,” My wolf mocked me.“I didn’t cry,” I denied.“Did too,” The sassy miss responded. I rolled my eyes
Harlyn“Hi, I was told to meet you here,” I said when I walked into the living room of the princess side of the palace. I still don’t know how the buildings in the palace were decided and built because you have to walk a long distance to get from Bernardo's side of the palace to Sophie’s side. I looked around but Harry wasn’t there. Ava was on her phone. She didn’t even acknowledge my presence. Not like I cared.“Hey, I will just grab my purse. You can sit down. Harry is taking a bath. You want to say hi to him, right?” She asked. I nodded.“I will let him know,” She said and disappeared into one of the rooms. I took my seat and with nothing to do, I just sat there and waited. I remembered the last time I had been in this room. I had been on my knees begging them to let me stay. I smirked when I realized that I won in the end.“You think you won,” I wiped my head to the side when I heard Ava’s voice. She stopped looking at her phone and was glaring daggers at me.“What do you mea
Harlyn“I am sorry,” She whispered, bowing her head.“Ye-- what?” I asked in confusion, feeling myself return to normal.“I said I am sorry. It won’t ever happen again.” She apologized again. I wanted to ask her what suddenly changed but then, Sophie walked back in with Harry tailing behind her. Ava stood up from where she sat. I still couldn’t look away from her. I kept wondering what she had seen in my eyes that scared her but then my brother distracted me so I turned my attention to him instead.“Hey, sis,” Harry said, reaching for my hand when we got close. I stood up and hugged him. I still wasn’t used to the fact that I had a brother but I was getting the hang of it and after our conversation last night, I wanted to meet my sister soon too.“Are you okay?” He asked, looking from me to Ava and then back to me. I nodded. I looked Ava’s way and she was back on her phone.“Yes, I am okay, and you?” I asked with a smile. I still couldn’t get my mind around what happened right b
HarlynWe ate breakfast at one of those high-profile restaurants in the kingdom. Because I had already eaten before we left the palace, I had just hot chocolate while the others had a full breakfast. Even while we ate, my eyes kept going to Ava and I caught her looking at me too more than three times and each time, she would look away fast.“Oh hell! That’s Isa, I should go say hi,” Princess Sophie said and without waiting for either I or Ava to speak, she got up and left our table. I didn’t mind because I saw it as an opportunity to ask the questions that have been burning in my mind since.I turned to Ava who looked away as soon as she saw me looking at her. “Why did you suddenly apologize? What changed?” I asked her. At first, she ignored me and acted like she didn’t hear what I just said. I tapped on the table. “I know you can hear me.” I let out in a much louder voice.“I already apologized and told you I will not say such things again. Can you let it go?” She let out sha
Harlyn“Isa, watch what you say. that’s the Luna.” Sophie said but it was as if Isabelle didn’t want to believe or she didn’t hear what she said because she walked towards me with her usual mean look. I didn’t look away from her like I would have done before.“Did the alpha king really pick you as his mate? Like out of all the beautiful and sophisticated women in the Crimson Moon and even neighboring cities, packs, and countries, he chose you?” She was really looking for it from me but I wasn’t going to let her have what she was looking for. I smiled and that shocked her. She stopped walking and turned to Sophie. “Are you for real?” “Stop, Isabelle. That’s my brother’s mate and your Luna. Show some respect or I won’t be held responsible for whatever happens. Whatever happened in the past, just take it out of your mind because nothing is the same anymore. Stop, please,” Sophie said. her friend turned shocking eyes my way before turning back to Sophie.“I haven’t had anything in t
