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
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
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
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.Sarah returned home and paced around as she contemplated what to do. She thought about the document Nathan was talking about and knew she had to check it out but unfortunately, there were plenty of his domestic staff around and they don’t allow anyone except Gideon or Nathan to go into the office freely so she knew she had to sneak in and cannot tell them she wants to enter hence they will call Nathan first to confirm if he was the one that permitted them.Sarah bit her lips as she thought of a trick she could use to enter the office and when she finally got an idea for something, she headed towards the butler since that’s the only person she can use to control the maids.“Hello Sarah,” one of the domestic staff greeted her when she passed but Sarah dragged her back and slapped her hard.“Where is the gold jewelry I left on my room table,” she yelled, holding onto the maid’s dress.The maid’s eyes widened as she didn’t know what Sarah meant. No one enters her room except
Lunaria’s POV.I woke up to a throbbing headache, my surroundings eerily dark. I couldn’t tell where I was or who I was with. I tried to stand up but felt my legs were tied up together and my hands too. Fear gripped my heart, my wolf instincts on high alert. I tried to shift, but my body felt heavy and unresponsive. Panic set in as I realized how tight my hands were tied behind my back, my legs were shackled with heavy chains which restricted my movement.“What is this?” I panicked as I tried to move my hands but it won’t budge because of the way it was tied."Please, someone, help me," I yelled, my voice trembling.How did I end up here? What is happening to me? Who did I offend? I don’t remember having any issues with anyone or did my father’s enemy decide to abduct me since I’m his heir? What is going on here? Why am I here? Oh my God! Liam, what will he do without me? What will my father think when I haven’t yet returned, Liam will be very scared and crying. What should I do?My
Nathan's POV.I couldn't sleep all night, my mind racing with thoughts of Lunaria wondering where she was, if she was safe at least, or being tortured or abused. I didn’t know what the intention of the person who abducted her was or why the person did that but it all seemed suspicious.I had questioned some people who knew her in her father’s palace. She was a very good person who minded her business just as she had always been. I had asked that question to know if she changed and had lived recklessly to maybe warrant her being abducted but she was still the same person even after losing her memory and it hurt me that this happened.When my worry and restlessness got worse, I tried to reach out to some old contacts, hoping they might have some information about her disappearance, but every lead ended in a dead-end. None seemed to know about her whereabouts and all maintained it’s been long before they even had any conversation with her. Frustration gnawed at me, but I refused to give
Nathan’s POV.As we moved further down the empty place, I narrowed my eyes as I could get a whiff of some buildings that had appeared ahead and I knew something was wrong.I could see different abandoned buildings all around us.These were the ruins of a pack where war had been fought and people had been killed so there was no one around here. I started to believe that she was kept here. Maybe in one of the buildings but I didn’t know which one they were in.“How about we split up?” Gideon noted as I looked around.“Are you sure that’s a very good idea?” I said. “What if we split up and it turns out to be a horrible idea? It isn’t going to be a good idea to just leave like each other in an uncharted place. It could be a trap.”“If it is, we are both capable of handling ourselves. You are an alpha and I am a beta. We can do this.”I looked around again before nodding and shrugging.“Fine,” I said. “Let’s do it.”“Alright.”“If anyone finds her first, we should communicate through the
Author’s POV.While everyone was happy that Lunaria had been found, Sarah and a few others were distraught by the news. Now in the confines of her bedroom, Sarah repeatedly thanked her stars that she had followed Nathan and Gideon to the location where Lunaria was kept. Not only was her accomplice going to be caught since he was outnumbered, she was going to be exposed and she couldn't risk it. Pacing about with her hands crossed on her chest, she allowed her mind to start wandering all over the place. Reviewing the plans in her head which were perfect without a flaw, she began to wonder what could have gone wrong as she had carefully followed it all to the latter. “I should have known that Nathan’s involvement is going to make things go sour.” She said through her teeth, cranking her head to the side. Snapping her eyes shut, she took in a deep breath as she slowly lowered herself to the edge of the bed only to rise the next second. Each time she remembered how she had sent his
Nathan’s POV.The moment my eyes flickered open, I knew at once that I was in the hospital. Turning my head to the side, I tried to sit up only to see Lunaria seated opposite me with her head tossed backward; she was asleep. Beside her was Liam who was engrossed in his childish play. The first thing that came to mind was to help her on the bed so she would have a comfortable rest but the moment I threw my feet off the bed, it creaked and at once she snapped her eyes open. Ugh!“I’m sorry, I shouldn't have woken you up,” I said, blaming myself for not being careful enough. “Hey, you shouldn't be apologetic about it.” Pushing her hair behind her ear, she rose and then walked up to me. Making me rest my back against the wall, she proceeded to say, “I’m supposed to be looking after you but I fell asleep.” “Are you okay?” She asked, peering into my eyes with a concerned look on her face. Nodding in glee, I said, “Of course I am.” Grinning like I had just won the lottery, I went fur
Lunaria’s POV.Panicking, I stood rooted in a spot as I stared at Nathan who was lying at my feet in fright as fear surged through me only to hear a feminine voice. “Are you alright?” Sarah asked, waddling her way towards us. “What about Nathan, what are we going to do now?” I said in a breath as I alternated my gaze between her and Nathan who was slowly turning white. The moment Gideon arrived by our side, I grabbed his shoulder, “Please do something.” I cried and despite all of his efforts to calm me down, it was futile. “Relax your nerves, he will be fine.” He cooed but that only happened when Nathan was safe in the ward and the nurses attended to him. The moment they stepped out of the ward, I dashed in and at once made my way to Nathan who was lying on the bed. The color on his face had returned and he was healing up quickly but still, I felt a little bit of worry. Running my fingers on the outline of his jaw, I tried to stop my head from swirling around with a million tho
Author’s POV.Sarah watched the men rush out and frowned after Nathan had returned after leaving earlier: he was around when she broke into his home office with the confusion she raised. He had stepped out to meet someone. She hadn’t imagine that this how it should go and she was already angry at how Gideon and Nathan could leave the house in such a hurry.She suspected that something had happened. That had to be the only reason why they would leave in such a hurry.With her mind filling up with the most vile things, she followed them out until she got to where the car was packed.She could see them getting into the car and driving off as she got into her own car and drove off after them.Her mind was rolling with ideas. If they had gone that far to find Lunaria, it would only be a little time before they would find her.While driving behind them, she maintained a steady pace with her lights off.She didn’t want them to notice that she was tailing them.She was scared of what the bet
