Lunaria’s POV.

I woke up to the sound of Liam’s cheerful voice calling out, “Mama, wake up! I want to see Uncle Nathan!” His small hands shook my shoulder as I groaned and turned away, pretending to sleep a little longer.

“Please, Mama! You promised we’d go!” he whined, pulling at the blanket.

I peeked at him with one eye and smiled. “Liam, it’s too early for Uncle Nathan. How about later in the day? I promise we’ll go, okay?”

His face lit up immediately. “Really?”

“Yes, really,” I said, pulling him into a hug. “Now let me rest a little longer.”

Before I could lay back down, there was a knock on the door. “My lady, it’s time for breakfast,” one of the maids called out from the other side.

At the mention of food, Liam’s excitement bubbled over. He bolted out of my bed and ran toward the door. “Breakfast! Breakfast!” he shouted as he disappeared down the hall.

I couldn’t help but laugh, his energy was contagious. But just as quickly as the laughter came, it faded. I sighed deeply, my mo

    Lunaria's POV.I took a deep breath and replied, "I went out for some business and I cannot reveal more than that to any of you because it is strictly supposed to be my business,” I declared slightly irritated by their intrusive questions and suspicious stares.Then Lillian huffed before snickering in response. "Oh, I'm sure you were being your loose self as usual," she replied and I felt a surge of anger, but I bit my tongue in order not to say anything in a burst of anger, reminding myself that Liam was present. I didn't want to create a scene in front of my son.Agatha eyed me for a while when I went silent before she chimed in, her voice sweet but condescending. "Lunaria, you never learn, do you? You're so careless, you almost lost your son. You should realize now that being a mother comes with you being precarious about your child’s welfare. I’m sure what you went after isn’t as important as your son’s life is or do you not value him because he doesn’t have a father and you don’

    Nathan's POV.I woke up early, feeling a mix of excitement and nervousness. I couldn’t deny that I had barely slept last night. It had been like I was some teenager whose crush finally agreed to go on a date or spend the day with. The thought of another day with Lunaria couldn’t allow me to sleep as my imagination ran wildly making me miss her and want to see her again.I got dressed, expecting Lunaria to arrive soon. Looking around and not seeing her already made me wish she was living with me already as it was going to be the sweetest thing to be able to see her face every morning before I go about my day.I had picked out the finest clothes when I got dressed, determined to impress her and win her over over again with my charm. I grinned thinking about how beautiful she was definitely going to be and the gentle smile that is going to be on her face.As I walked into the living room still thinking of Lunaria, I saw Gideon, my beta, standing by the window, already dressed and ready f

    Nathan's POV.What Sarah said made me realize how selfish I was. And how much I was wrong wanting to have the sweetest times with Lunaria and also wanting to have back in my arms again. I felt guilty of thinking about her all night with the sweetest memories forgetting how much she suffered before she disappeared and then appeared again after six years."Damn, how could I be so unreasonable and not think as maturely as I was supposed to?" I thought to myself. Sarah was absolutely right, and her words were definitely the reminder I needed.My mood changed totally from the happy Nathan to now a very gloomy one as more thoughts swirled in my head. I couldn't shake off the feeling of unease that settled in my stomach. Was I really prepared for the consequences of Lunaria regaining her memory? Was I really prepared for her making the decision to abandon me for what I did forever?Was I ready for her to choose another man over me when she learned the truth? Was I ready to see how hurt and

    Author’s POV While Nathan was acting awkwardly, Sarah stood in a corner, watching him with a bright smile etched on her lips. This was what she wanted and she couldn't feel more grateful that her words had impact on him. Smacking her lips with her hands still across her chest, she watched keenly how Nathan tried to get rid of the connection between him and Lunaria. “I had no intention of staying back and watching you two get together. Whatever I need to do to split you up, I don't mind.” She said through her teeth. When Nathan suggested they went to the pack clinic together, she wasn't pleased with the idea a bit and at the same time, she couldn't stop them and so all she could do was to sulk. Watching them leave as anger ran through her veins, she couldn't help but to review the plans she had already brewed in her head. Getting rid of Lunaria was going to be easy peasy to her now and she couldn't wait to get the job done already.After they had taken their leave, she stepped o

    Lunaria’s POV At first, I thought I was the one thinking things but when Nathan continued avoiding me repeatedly after we started heading to the clinic. He was silent while all through the drive and I believed it was an intentional act and this got me worried. Saddened with the way he was treating me, I began to wonder what I might have done wrong to deserve a cold treatment from him. Reviewing the events of the previous night in my head, I couldn't pinpoint when I had annoyed him or we had a fallout. Even when I tried to apologize to him for something I was unsure of doing, he ignored me completely like I was a plague. When we got to the garage, I halted and then held Gideon's arm so he wouldn't take a step further, “Is anything the issue?” I asked.Gideon didn't give an immediate response as I had wanted, hence making me even more terrified. Whatever might be the problem, it was bigger than I had imagined. “Please talk to me, I’m curious.” I pressed on, hoping my persistence

    Nathan’s POV.Though I was feigning not to care about my sudden absurd behavior after we started heading to the clinic but I was bothered. With each passing minute, I felt like Lunaria was slipping off my grip and the thought of it terrified me to my bones. Sarah had done a perfect job in making me regret all of my earlier actions and now the remedy was I should stay away from her. Thanks to her also, I realized I have been wrong all these while and acting professionally with her was the best way. When we got to the garage, I was expecting that she would come after me but instead, she stood next to Gideon and both of them were talking. This triggered me so much that several times, I was tempted to yell at them to break their conversation but that was only going to worsen everything. So I wouldn't explode, I had to ask her to go with Gideon in another car but still, I was jealous and angry. All through the drive to the hospital, I couldn't get my mind off their car that was behi

    Nathan’s POV.I was sure I had messed up everything at this moment and I was sad by how everything had turned out to be.I explained all I could to her so she would stay with me and we could work together again but it seemed to fall on deaf ears as she was not willing to work with me anymore.“I’ll just go Nathan,” she said with a tired voice. “I really appreciate all you’ve done and it’s been a wonderful time but I do want you to know that I need to leave. You can forget the documents.”She dragged her hands out of mine as we heard a sob.We looked at the door to see Liam standing there with tears in his eyes.“Mummy,” he said, running towards her. “What is going on? Are you mad at uncle Nathan?”She looked at me and smiled. “Oh no,” she said which was a blatant lie. “I’m not mad at him. We are just… playing.”“Please forgive him. He’s my friend. I don’t want us to lose him.”That made her stop as she looked at me and sighed before turning to Liam.“Liam, we need to go home…”But Lia

    Lunaria’s POV.As I drove home with Liam, my thoughts went back to Nathan. I was glad our earlier talk had been good and he wasn’t upset with anything I had done. Knowing that felt like a weight off my shoulders, and for the first time in a long time, things just seemed… right.I dropped Liam off at the palace with Mendy and didn’t waste any time heading to the hospital. There was so much to do, but I wanted to get started analyzing the samples from Nathan’s pack that I had collected. The thought of actually finding a way to cure and help his people pushed me even harder.At least, that way I could earn everyone’s trust.When I got to the hospital I went straight to the lab. I quickly set everything up and started running tests on the samples. I was so into it that I didn’t realize how late it was getting. Each slide, each test result brought me closer to finding out what everyone in Nathan's pack was sick with.At some point my stomach growled reminding me that I hadn’t eaten in a l

    Nathan'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

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?

    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
