Lunaria woke up to a gruesome scene: her father-in-law lay murdered in cold blood. Shock turned to horror when her best friend, Sarah, accused her of the crime, fabricating evidence and testifying against her in court. Lunaria's mate, Alpha Nathan, condemned her to death by hanging, despite her desperate pleas of innocence. In prison, Lunaria discovered she was pregnant. She shared the news with Alpha Nathan, hoping it would change a thing between them and give her another chance. Instead, she caught him with Sarah, shattering her heart. Lunaria escaped, determined to disappear. When Alpha Nathan realised she was innocent, she was already gone. Years later, Alpha Nathan encountered Lunaria again, but this time, she was a powerful Lycan King heiress, flanked by a lover and son. His apology was met with indifference. "Who are you? Do I know you?" Lunaria asked, her words piercing Alpha Nathan's soul.
View MoreNathan's POV.Slowly, I was losing my mind. When Mendy brought the news at first, I refused to believe that Lunaria had gone missing in her kingdom. At once, memories came rushing in as it was the same way she had disappeared only for me to find her after six years of intense search.“This doesn't look good a bit,” I muttered, tugging on my hair as I darted my eyes around. Getting missing in her own kingdom was suspicious and I couldn't push it off. Whoever it is that had orchestrated this must be very brave. Abducting the heiress of the Lycan Kingdom was only what someone with two heads could pull off.The King wasn't going to allow this to pass just like that.Shaking these thoughts off my head, I decided to focus on the present and that was Henry, whom she had gone out with the previous day. To others, his tale was believable but not to me as I felt there was more to it. And to make me doubt him even more was the fact that he was nowhere around here. Even though he isn't going
Author’s POV.For a moment, Sarah stood rooted to the spot as she watched the intense discussion between them. At first, she thought they were talking about how to rescue her but when she got to know it was the opposite, her lips parted into a large smile. The duo turned out to be Agatha and Lillian. When the news came to them the previous night, their joy knew no bounds as they were going to get what they had always wanted and that was to throw her out of the palace.While the Lycan King was trying to come up with ways on how to find her, Agatha kept pumping into him that she had gone to be with her lover. This got the King furious but there was nothing he could do about it as he didn't have proof and he even became skeptical about the search. If it turned out that what Agatha was saying was true, the entire Kingdom was going to hear about it and it would be almost impossible for her to take over the throne. With her hands crossed on her chest, Lillian pouted, “Father will have
Author’s POV.When Sarah noticed that the pack was the busiest that day, she became curious, itching to find out what was happening or what had happened. Her curiosity was quenched when the maid told Nathan the situation of things and immediately, her heart began to throb with joy. With her eyes glinting in excitement, she was already on the verge of screaming her lungs out but somehow, she was able to contain it. “No! This can't be happening.” She blurted, grabbing Nathan by his shoulder as she doubled over, a wince escaping her lips. “This can't be happening, Nathan! An event from six years ago… it can't repeat itself.” She ratted out, her eyes pooling with tears. Nathan held her shoulder and slowly, he led her to a quiet area, trying to pacify her and at the same time himself. The news had come to him as a rude awakening and so his thoughts were all over the place. “Calm down, the guards are going to find her.” Nathan had said this to comfort her and comfort himself too. “T
Nathan’s POV.The moment I heard the words “Lunaria is missing,” my world stopped. I stared at Mendy, my mind racing as if it was trying to catch up with what she had just said. Missing? How could she be missing? My chest tightened painfully, and I had to take a deep breath to steady myself.I looked at Mendy, expecting her to clarify, to say something that made this all make sense. “What do you mean she’s missing?” I asked, my voice low but filled with urgency. “What happened? Where did she go?”Mendy hesitated, wringing her hands nervously, but she eventually explained, “Lunaria went out for dinner with Henry last night. After that… she didn’t come back.”The mention of Henry sent another jolt through me. My jaw clenched at the thought of her being out with him. My emotions were a tangled mess of worry, anger, and jealousy. If she was with him, surely he’d know something. Surely he’d be the first person to ask about her.“Did anyone talk to Henry?” I asked sharply, trying to stay ca
Nathan’s POV.I woke up to the sensation of pain pulsating through my hand; it must have been sleeping. I rubbed at it as I sat upright, slowly working out the kinks in my body and finding that my neck was stiff from having slept awkwardly. Blinking twice, I strained to recall why I was there and what had occurred before I had gone to sleep.I was still inside of my office, the desktop scattered with sheets of paper—crinkle-edged or else perfectly flat.Right, I had stayed up pretty late last night researching a cure for the epidemic sweeping through our pack. I guess I must have overdone it because next thing I knew, I’d fallen over and slept.I sighed and dropped to my knees, collecting all of the papers that had fallen and making sure they were straight before stacking them back neatly together. My desk was a mess as normal but I liked everything in place before beginning my day.With a last second thought, I reached for the drawer to put them before my cell phone vibrated against
Lunaria’s POV.I was so livid I could barely see straight. My chest heaved as I remembered glaring across the table at Henry. His expression was calm, almost smug as if he truly believed what he’d just said made sense.“How could you even suggest that, Henry?” I hissed, my voice trembling with disbelief. “You know how much Liam means to me! He’s my son—my world! And you want me to leave him behind? Stay in my father’s palace while I move in with you?”I could still see myself walking away from him as he called for me to wait for him but I didn’t care about him. It was clear he had chosen what he wanted to do. I wasn’t the choice he wanted. “Lunaria, wait!” Henry called, scrambling to stand up, but just then, one of the waiters approached him with the bill. He hesitated, glancing between me and the waiter.I didn’t wait for him to decide. I stormed out of the restaurant without looking back. The cool night air hit my face as I stepped outside, but it did little to calm my racing heart
Nathan's POV.I had picked up my coat to leave when a call came in. I wanted to ignore it, but it was from my manager. So, I had to accept it and turned around to head to my desk to sit down."Good day, Alpha," my manager said over the phone. "I was called to remind you that the project will be needed soon by the review team to help you arrange it well. Are you done so I can put them together after editing?"I sighed as I looked at the wet papers on my desk, a mess courtesy of Sarah's tantrum. I clenched my left fist as her behavior popped into my mind. She was insane, and it was becoming sickening."Okay, it should be ready soon. I'm almost done. Await my call and instructions," I replied after a few seconds of silence, and the call came to an end.My eyes blazed with frustration as I stared at the wet papers scattered across my desk. The wine Sarah had poured on them had ruined hours of work. I couldn't believe her audacity and how better she was getting at it these days. She barely
Author’s POV.Sarah stood in the dimly lit alley, her eyes fixed on the man before her. She had come to do exactly what she needed to do before Lunaria took her place. How could she watch her sway Nathan so much already after what happened? She had tried to separate them before just for them to come back together again and her plan was about to get crushed beyond repair and she won’t allow that. Knowing that Kunaria was her problem she knew she had to remove her in any way possible and this time, there won’t be any mistakes.She handed him a folder containing Lunaria's pictures she had hired someone to take."I want her taken care of, make sure she doesn’t survive anything you have in mind for her. I don’t want to see her ever again and if I do, you will pay for it. Remember I will only give you your balance when you carry out your job properly,” she whispered, her voice dripping with contempt.“I hope you can do the job. I ain’t asking too much, right? If you can’t, I can hide someo
Lunaria's POV.I stood in my room, torn between two desires. A part of me longed to call Henry and cancel our dinner plans, just so I could spend more time with Nathan. But another part of me knew I couldn't keep putting Henry off for the reason I couldn’t tell. I wanted to spend more time with Nathan, I wanted him around, to see his face again and hear him speak. I enjoy how much he cares about every little detail that concerns me like he knew me and I was very precious to him. I couldn’t deny the attraction I was growing towards Nathan, it was like a glimpse of him brings joy to my heart, and having him around seemed like I was being protected and cherished but sadly, I had committed to this dinner with Henry which I couldn’t just all of a sudden.My thoughts were interrupted by a knock at the door. It was Mendy, who came to inform me that Henry had arrived and I sighed wishing he would have delayed a little bit longer. I quickly brushed my hair, applied some lip gloss, and headed d
Lunaria's POV.“What is going on?” I whispered to myself, staring in disbelief at the body lying next to me. My heart raced as I pinched myself, trying to wake up from what must surely be a nightmare. This couldn’t be real. It had to be some figment of my imagination, a twisted dream that I desperately wanted to end.“Sir,” I called out, my voice trembling as I gently tapped him. But to my horror, his body was cold and unresponsive. No movement, no sign of life. My heart pounded in my chest as panic set in. “Sir!” I repeated, pushing him slightly. His body just flopped over, drenched in blood like a lifeless shell.I gasped, my hands flying to cover my mouth as shock overwhelmed me. Tears blurred my vision as I tried to make sense of the scene. Glancing down at myself, I saw that I too was covered in blood. A small scream escaped my lips as I leaped up from the bed, my legs trembling beneath me. There, on the bed, lay a small dagger, stained with blood. What the hell was going on? I w
