Author's POV.

Anthony’s frustration got the better of him as he shouted at the elders in the grand hall, his voice booming with anger and desperation.

“You’re all wrong! King Damon made his choice! He named Lunaria as his heir for a reason, and it isn’t your place to question it now!”

“You should be quiet, young man,” the elder in charge said with a harsh tone as Anthony laughed.

“You all asked questions and got answers, but because it isn’t fitting your narrative you try to toss it out like it isn’t important. How dare you do such a thing? Do you even know how hurtful that is? She was given the throne by the late king. Some of you here know about it but you all act like hypocrites because he is dead. Have some respect for him. He might be fine physically but his words and rules still lives on.”

“If you don’t shut it, I’ll make sure you regret it,” Lillian growled as he turned to her.

“You better be grateful I save lives and not take it, or you would be the first person on my list to

    Author’s POV.Anthony realized what a fool he had been while listening to them and it got him riled up in anger."I don't care about your threats," he spat, his voice low and even as he glared at them."I'm going to tell Lunaria the truth. I will expose your deeds and make sure none of them work out. How could you guys be this wicked? What did Lunaria do to you? It's now I am realizing how foolish I had been for treating Lunaria the way I did, I feel so bad,” Anthony said with sadness.Agatha scoffed as she looked at him, her expression remained calm, but a hint of amusement danced in her eyes and she crossed her arm across her chest, facing him."Well, be prepared to lose her for good then, Anthony," she warned, her voice filled with malice as she glared at Anthony."Not only will Lunaria return to Nathan, but she'll also hate you for deceiving her. She will leave you and never look back. Have you forgotten she is looking for a way to leave you, she had never wanted you in the first

    Author’s POV. “Where is the maid in charge of serving the Alpha Breakfast?” Sarah thundered immediately as she entered the kitchen. It was past lunchtime and the food she saw looked like it belonged to the Alpha. It was untouched and she wondered if they had prepared a bad meal Nathan couldn't eat. “I am the one Ma’am,” a maid said and rushed forward, bowing her head as she stood before Sarah. “Why did I see untouched food in the dining? Did the chef prepare a bad breakfast that the Alpha couldn't eat?” Sarah inquired, glaring angrily at the maid. “I am sorry Ma’am but the Alpha refused to have breakfast and asked us to keep it on the dining table when we managed to beg him to agree but he never attempted to eat it,” the maid in charge of Nathan’s food that morning apologized. “Is that supposed to be an excuse? If the Alpha couldn't make it to the dining, why do you have legs? Why can't you take the food to him?” Sarah questioned, her anger increasing. “It's because unless

    Author’s POV.Lillian paced the room, her eyes wide with worry. She was worried about Anthony spilling all that he knew to Lunaria, even though they had threatened him enough to make him shit up, Lilian feared that wasn't enough since she didn't know if Anthony would indeed shut up seeing how much he loved Lunaria. He might tell her everything and when Lunaria discovers it all. They would be at the risk of the elders knowing they were deceived and that would ruin everything, she would lose the chance to ever take over the throne forever.“Mom! We have to do something. I seem not to keep calm about this,” Lilian revealed and Agatha stood up and held her, dragging her to sit on the couch with her.“Lilian. You don't have to panic, you are only giving yourself unnecessary anxiety,” Agatha said, trying to calm her down, but Lillian wouldn't listen."Mother, what if the elders find out?" Lillian asked, her voice trembling. "What if they discover our plan? I will lose everything, Mother. M

    Lunaria’s POV.I walked through the castle, feeling down and alone. Nathan's absence weighed heavily on me, and I couldn't help but wonder what he was doing at that moment. I missed his comforting presence, his reassuring words. If he had been here, he would have said comforting words to me, smiled at me, and held my hand. With his presence, I would feel okay like everything was fine even if it wasn't, I would have forgotten my worries too.As I continued strolling around the castle, my anger towards Anthony grew. He was the cause of everything showing up when I least expected just to reveal things that damaged my relationship with Nathan. Why had he come between us, tearing us apart with his revelation? Didn't he know how much Nathan meant to me? I was almost in tears as I thought all about this.Lost in thought, I didn't notice Liam standing in front of me until he tugged on my hand."Mummy, where are you going?" he asked, his eyes curious as he looked around.I forced a smile and

Please I can no longer run,” Liam started crying as he halted and immediately I stopped too.“I am sorry baby, I didn't think about carrying you. Please stop crying, we will soon reach home,” I tried to coo him but he continued crying causing me to panic that he would be heard and I had to carry him up, trying to comfort him as he whimpered against my shoulder.“I am hungry and thirsty, mummy, I need water and also want to eat something,” he said while I carried him.“Okay, when we get home safely, I will make sure I provide that,” I promised, still running as fast as I could even as Liam weighed me down a little bit.He was still a child and I felt bad he was experiencing this. I wondered how scared he would be from now on and if he would become traumatized because of it but I decided I would watch him and

I just need to rest,” she replied but I knew she was just trying to cover up.I took the lotion from her and began to help her tend to her wounds. She winced in pain as I applied the lotion, and I felt a pang of guilt."We should still go to the hospital," I said, trying to persuade her.But Lunaria was adamant. "I'm fine, Nathan. Really. I just need to rest and recover."I sighed, frustrated that she wouldn't budge, she was quite stubborn, and I had forgotten so soon.“Have you eaten?" I asked, changing the subject.Gideon spoke up from the doorway as he joined us, bringing some tea for Lunaria."No, she hasn't,” he said and I turned to him."Get the maids to bring her some food."But Lunaria gripped my band, shaking h

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.

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."
