Lunaria's POV.

Nathan and I broke away from the kiss, our lips still tingling. He stood up, avoiding my gaze like he felt nervous.

"I'm sorry, I don't know what came over me," he said.

I smiled, shaking my head. "Don't apologize, Nathan. loved it."

Nathan's eyes sparkled, and he leaned in for another kiss. His gaze burned with intensity as he deepened it, then broke off just as I was about to get immersed in the kiss, he stopped, making me almost curse at me.

"Do you want me to stop or keep going?" he asked respectfully.

I went silent, lacking words to express how I felt. Skepticism and desire wrestled within

“It's fine if you don't want to,” he said and stood up, a little bit of disappointment flashing in his eyes.

“I should leave you alone now to rest. Goodnight,” he said and stood up, to walk away but immediately I sprang up and held his hand, not knowing where the courage came from.

“Please don't go,” I whispered standing in front of him. Our eyes locked as we remained standing in

    Nathan's POV.I watched Lunaria's face fall as she hung up the phone, her eyes welling up with tears. My heart ached, knowing I had to do something to lift her spirits."Hey, let's get out of here for a bit," I suggested, trying to sound casual. "We can take a walk, disguised, of course."Lunaria looked up, a hint of a smile on her lips. "Okay."We slipped out of the pack. The cool evening air and quiet streets were a welcome respite from the tension.As we strolled, Lunaria's hand in mine, I couldn't help but think about the pack elders' meeting. The rumors, the evidence... all pointing to her guilt. But I knew she was innocent.I need to prove it, I thought, my mind racing. Find the truth.Dr. Rachel's name flashed in my mind, but I pushed the thought aside. I wouldn't burden Lunaria with that yet.We walked on, the night air filled with newfound purpose. I would uncover the truth and clear Lunaria's name."Lunaria, what's on your mind?" I asked, breaking the silence.She sighed, he

    Lunaria's POV.I woke up feeling like a kid on Christmas morning, still buzzing from last night's adventure with Nathan. Our conversation about being a stepfather and starting a family played in my mind like a sweet melody. I couldn't wait to see him again.My mind recalled I needed to see Liam. He was already asleep when I returned last night so I rushed to his room, expecting to see his bright smile.Instead, he lay asleep, his tiny chest rising and falling with each breath. I approached him quietly, not wanting to disturb his peaceful slumber.“Oh my cutie,” I called out, stroking his hair and then kissed him, allowing him to sleep.I stood up and started walking away. As I made my way to the door and turned to leave, Liam stirred, opening his eyes.“Mummy,” his soft voice called after me.I turned around to see him staring at me. I forced a cheerful tone, trying to act like everything was okay when I knew that everything wasn’t, I couldn't shake off the uneasiness I was feeling."

    Lunaria’s POV.I was confused on why Sarah would bring that up now and I looked at her with widened eyes as she scoffed.“What do you mean?” I asked, ready to ask her what she meant because I didn’t understand what she was talking about.“You are not the right person for Nathan. That’s all I have to say.”Those were bold words by the woman, I thought to myself.“Please I don’t want any trouble,” I said with my hands up but she scoffed.“It’s a bit too late for that now don’t you think? Acting like a saint when you’re not even close to one. You’re just trying to act like you can’t hurt a fly when you’re as filthy as they come.”“What’s with all the names?” I asked in fear. “I haven’t done anything to you. Why would you act this way towards me when I’m only innocent.”She scoffed and got close to me as I backed away from her.“Look, I didn’t kill Nathan's father. There was no way I could have been involved in his death. I’m telling the truth. You have to believe me and stop accusing me

    Lunaria’s POV.Before I could say anything to her, she walked out of the place and left me on my own.I felt hurt and damaged and I could only look at my hands and wonder how we had gotten to this place.I took in deep sighs and fell on the bed to take a breather.My mood had changed and I didn’t even know all this while that Sarah had been in love with Nathan.How did I not know? I mean, I should have seen the signs with how she had been clinging around the alpha. But that was just a normal thing people did around their alphas. I had people clinging around me as well. I wouldn’t want anyone to think that because they were around me that meant that we were in love.I started to think back on all that had been said and wondered if maybe she was right and if Nathan didn’t love me but only pitied me.It felt like it was too much to handle.This was sad but I held back on my feelings.Dressing up, I left the house to start heading for the hospital to meet Anthony.

    Nathan’s POV.Seeing Lunaria with Anthony made my insides boil as I clenched my fist by my side, my chest heaving up and down.All the while I had been worrying my head of her safety but on the other hand she was with someone else and was in high spirits too.This shredded my heart but somehow I was able to hold myself back from calling out to her in the angry voice that was ringing in my head.Taking a step forward, I quickly released my hand from the first I had formed but it still kept going back and so I had no choice but to push my hands into my pockets.“You're here.” I said the moment I got to where she and Anthony stood, announcing my presence.I must have startled them because both of them turned around to face me at once with their faces masked in surprise.Anthony was the first to recover from this and he pushed his hand forward for a handshake which I wanted to ignore at first.“I’m happy meeting with you again.” He mouthed while I just nodded, staring at Lunaria who was i

    Lunaria’s POV.Sarah's words did nothing but to create a huge hole in my heart.Her words carried so much weight that the more I thought about it, the more disheveled I became and to make it even worse, I just couldn't take my mind off her.Even after her words, the thought of leaving had never crossed my mind and my love for Nathan didn't wean off.I loved Nathan and I doubt if I would be able to love someone the way I love him.If anything, I should have spoken to him first instead of dwelling on all what Sarah had said. Wiping the side of my eyes I sniffed loudly, not even embarrassed for a second.Smiling sweetly at me, Nathan placed his hands around my neck and the next moment, my head was resting peacefully on his chest as I inhaled his manly scent that was intoxicating.Combing through my hair with a sensual voice, he said, “You know I wouldn't do that to you, right?”“I'm sorry.” I mumbled, face palming myself for letting Sarah's words sway me.A few minutes later, we were se

    Author’s POV. Lunaria's hands trembled as Mendy helped her into the wedding attire and packed her hair in a bun. Just as Mendy stepped back to admire her handiwork, a soft knock at the door interrupted the moment. Mendy smiled and moved to answer it, she opened the door to find a young servant holding a small elegant envelope. "For the bride," the servant said, bowing slightly. “Thank you.” Came Mendy’s voice as she closed the door and walked over to Lunaria to hand her the envelope. Lunaria's heart skipped a beat as she took the envelope, her fingers tracing the seal. She recognized the symbol – Nathan's family crest. A gentle smile spread across her face as she opened the envelope and withdrew the letter inside. The poem, written in Nathan's own hand, spoke of his love for Lunaria, of the journey they had shared, and of the promises he made to her. It spoke of the moon goddess's blessing, of the love that had grown between them, and of the future they would build together. T

I hadn't thought about how she would feel, being forced to serve me after everything that had happened."Lillian, I..." I started to say, but she cut me off."I would rather not be alive at all than be a slave," she said, her voice firm.And with that, she grabbed a sharp object from the nearest shoulder and pierced herself.I screamed, shocked by her action.

They marched onto the throne room to confront me but I stood tall, my voice firm as I addressed Agatha.“Was it Sarah that gave you the Heirloom?” Agatha asked me."No, Sarah did not betray us, Agatha. Anthony found the real heirloom and exchanged it with the fake one."Nathan's face was still twisted in rage when he walked in and saw Agatha interrogating me, but as I waved at him to indicate that I was okay, I could see the tension in his body begin to ease. I turned to him, placing a calming hand on his arm as he came to stand beside me."Nathan, it's okay. The truth is out now."I turned back to Agatha, my eyes narrowing."Since everything is clear now, I will decide the fate of all the offenders." I moved to the throne, my voice ringing out across the room."According to our law, Agatha, you would be killed for your crimes. And Lillian, you would be reduced to a maid."T
