Ronan’s POV

“I have been searching around for you. Didn’t realize you were here.” I said to Freya, placing a kiss on her shoulder.

She glanced up at me with a light smile. “I just thought to sit out here and enjoy the evening air.”

“It's nice out here,” I mumbled, motioning to the guards and maids to move farther away from us.

I sat next to her just observing her features. This is the quietest she has been since I have known her. It just shows how much is on her mind. We still haven’t gotten around the situation we are in at the moment. But I still think there is a need for me to reassure her.

“If you keep staring at me like that, you will end up burning a hole in the side of my head.” Freya mused, slapping the book in her hand shut.

I chuckled awkwardly. “Don’t be like that, my love. You know how much I love to look at you. I have just been curious to know how you are doing.” I held her gaze lowering my voice.

“About Fiona?”

“I see you have met her.”

“Couldn’t resist. She is

    Fiona’s POV“Take a deep breath,” Rin advised I groaned painfully feeling my back muscles pull tightly. I had woken up uneasy and my body felt like it would collapse. I remained seated on the back porch surrounded by the garden. I have been by myself all day. Isla seems to be carrying out some major work in the palace. She only came by to drop my food. I couldn’t cope with staying all alone in the house and had to step outside. I am grateful at least that there is a garden that shields me from the main building. If not I might have been subjected to seeing the four walls every day. A light wince escaped my lips as the pain struck again. I inhaled deeply letting out a strained gasp. This is not the life I planned for myself. At least I get to talk to Basi and customers at the tavern every day. Now it is different, no friend, no family. I am all by myself. Nobody wants to be around me and it makes me think I might have a cursed fate. “No, you don’t!” Someone said behind me. I turned

    Ronan’s POV I couldn’t stop worrying about Fiona all through the night. Even though she claims to be just fine I saw that painful squeeze on her face that shows that she is in discomfort. I feel bad for it since it's my fault that she is in that condition. There should be a way to help and I just realized that she doesn’t have a doctor assigned to her yet. I don’t know how we are to go about that. Because there seem to be many people involved in this situation. “Are you going to leave her to birth the child herself?” Dion queried. “A doctor is needed to make sure she is healthy.” Rubbing at my neck I took a sip of the rum I had asked for. It's barely noon and all of my insides seem cold. Last night I was close to losing my head just because I told Freya we should pass up on sex for the night. She thought it was a joke at first and didn’t find it funny. Then I had to repeat myself and she went bonkers on me. I didn’t know what to do or how to respond to the situation I found myself

    Ronan’s POV“I need you to be as discreet as possible. If this gets out I would have you punished for it. Keep it to yourself and ensure she gets the necessary treatment.” I said to the doctor with a firm tone. Doctor Felix has been my family doctor since I could remember things. He has stayed faithful over the years. All the same, I need to warn him and request his allegiance again. Nothing should happen to Fiona and the child under my watch. Since I couldn’t think of any other person to approach to take care of Fiona. I had to go to him. He was surprised when I had him smuggled in through the back. That's why I am taking my time to explain this thing to him. “You don’t have to worry yourself, your majesty. It is my duty to keep my patients ’ affairs private.” Dr. Felix said. “Thank you.” I let out in one breath knocking on the door. Isla showed her face from behind. When she saw it was me she bowed quickly and opened the door widely. Fiona seems to be having a nap. It was past d

    Fiona’s POVIt took me five seconds after his question to realize my slip of the tongue. I gasped in shock covering my mouth. “I…..I am so so sorry Your Majesty. I didn’t mean what I said, it was sincerely a mistake. Forgive me please.” I mumbled quickly with my head bowed while I attempted to get up and kneel in front of him. Life has been hard for members of the Abian village for a long time. We have had to work twice as hard as many others just to make a living. Many times people complain about the king and his council of elders not caring about the poor folks. Without even realizing it, we have harbored hatred towards the king. If I knew I was going to sit with him soon, I would have kept my thoughts to myself and not said anything stupid. He placed a hand on my leg to keep me still. “Relax your nerves. It's not like you said anything wrong. Many people would have said it times without a number behind my back. Every one of you has the right to be angry. That is why I want to hea

    Author’s POVIsla mumbled some incoherent words under her breath as she dusted off her dress. The hot herb soup she had prepared poured on her and she couldn’t resist the painful yell. Luckily, it didn’t burn her skin. She rinsed off the plate and dished it again. A loud gasp escaped her lips when she entered the room to find Fiona on the floor looking almost lifeless. Isla dropped the tray quickly and rushed to her. “Fiona? Please wake up.” Isla panted, tapping her cheeks gently. A few seconds passed and there was still no response from her. Isla stormed out and ran towards the main building to find the king. She wasn’t allowed near his chambers and she had to make a fuss, insisting on seeing the Alpha King. Ronan heard the noise behind the door alongside Freya. They were just about to get into bed. “What’s all that about?” He asked reaching for his robe. Freya kissed her teeth. “Whatever it is, I am sure it doesn’t concern us. Let those silly people be. One of them is probably

    Ronan’s POVI yawned tiredly as I buttoned up my shirt. I didn’t get much sleep all through the night. The doctor wasn’t clear on the number of times Fiona would need to drink water before morning. If I didn’t miscount, I was up five different times to give her water. However, as tired as I might seem, I feel glad that I could be there for her. “You did an all night, can you at least take an hour break before attending the council meeting?” Freya said behind me in a worried tone. I inhaled and turned to her pulling her to my chest. “An Alpha King has no excuse to not do his duty. I will rest after I have attended to all that is required of me.” “Shouldn’t you eat a bit of breakfast at least?” She persisted. “A cup of tea will do just fine,” I said. “I will bring it to you now.” “Please have them bring it to my study. I need to have a word with Timon before the actual meeting starts.” “Alright.” Freya smiled kissing me. I will never understand what I did to deserve a sweet soul

    Author’s POV Callum sat still with his gaze fixed on the wall, many thoughts kept roaming his head. He saw that look and he recognized it. It is the same one his brother had that made Callum hasten his decision. He should have done a counterattack the minute he had the chance to. Waiting this long will cost him a lot. One of the elders that had followed him back home noisily cleared his throat. Callum sighed tiredly. “Do you have something to say, Elder James?” Elder James hummed in response. “I do have something to say and I believe I speak for all of us here when I say your nephew's attitude today was outrageous. Our families have been known to survive with these taxes. He can’t just wake up one day and deprive us of it.” “Did something happen that we are unaware of? He has never gone against us until now.” The most sensible amongst them Elder Dante chipped in. “He is just a child after all. You should have taken that seat, Callum. You are a rightful heir just like he is too.”

    Ronan’s POV “You are unbelievable, Ronan. Why would you make such a decision?” Freya questioned. Stretching out my neck, I leaned further into the chair. I thought this particular discussion was over the moment I stepped out of the meeting hall. But as it appears I am in for a long ride. “Why aren’t you saying anything?” She queried stomping her feet on the hard floor. My eyes stared long at her poor legs she was punishing all for nothing. Inhaling, I held her gaze. “I don’t understand where all this commotion of yours is coming from. But this is not your concern Freya. Handle your affairs as the Luna queen and let me take care of mine.” A loud gasp escaped her lips as she stared at me with eyes wide open. One would think I said something sacrilegious. “Are you listening to yourself? You act like you don’t know this thing concerns me. My brother is part of the council after my father died and my family gets the means to survive through these taxes.” “Did I say they won’t get the

    Ronan’s POVLouis let out his loud childish laugh as I tickled his side. It feels so good to finally get the chance to play with my child. We have gotten closer as it should be. He has stuffed himself with every sweet chewables the party has to offer. I have a feeling Isla would have a hard time putting him to bed.“So sorry, Your Highness. I will take him now.” Isla pleaded.“It is alright, Isla. Thank you. Where is my wife?”“She is getting changed.”“Alright, thank you.”After the usual open ceremony that involved every member of the Nestorian kingdom, Fiona was crowned as the Luna Queen. We returned to the palace to celebrate with a ball, ushering in anyone who desired to attend. Fiona made the most beautiful bride I have ever seen in her wedding dress. I wish we didn’t have to be so engaged in honoring our guests and just have her to myself.“Wow, he is, the man of the hour.” Timon teased sitting next to me.“I have been looking around for you. Where have you been?” I questioned.

    Fiona’s POVI glanced discreetly at Ronan and smiled to myself. He looks much better than he was a month ago. When Lord Timon arrived with a carriage saying we were returning to the palace, I thought it was a joke. I had almost given up on the thought that we would ever get to return since Ronan never seemed to have an answer.When we arrived there was a lot of acknowledgment from the very people who didn’t care to see me. I never knew Ronan’s uncle and didn’t think too highly of him after hearing about all that he did. What I didn’t expect was the situation of Freya. It was okay when she plotted to have me dead, but shocking at her intention to kill Ronan. You never know what people are capable of. Dawn didn’t appear too concerned about the death of her father, but she finally got the chance to mourn her mother properly.I felt sorry for Dawn and Ronan, even though my experience wasn’t as epic as theirs. I do know what it feels like to have the ones you trust to play on your heart an

    Ronan’s POVMy entire world felt like a lie. I still can’t get over everything that Elder Callum expressed. To think I felt guilty for ever suspecting him. All the while I had sleepless nights and battled for my life, he was plotting against me.“Why don’t you go back to the palace, Your Majesty, and let me sort this out,” Timon said.I shook my head feeling a nasty ache making its way to my head. “No, please, I want to see for myself.” I insisted.We were headed for Elder Callum’s house to search properly this time. Even though I still can’t get over the shock of all that he said and his death, I want to get a glimpse of everything. The house was agog when we arrived. All of the maids and guards looked on in fear as Timon and his men searched every room in the house.The remains of Aunt Celine were the first thing that was found. Callum had it wrapped up in a bag and put it into the room she had slept in when she was alive. It was obvious that it was her from the burnt remains of her

  • His Destined Luna   Chapter 177

    Author’s POVThere was an eerie feeling in the air as Ronan moved through the woods stealthily. He could sense some presence behind the thick bushes, and even though whoever it was did try to hide its scent, he caught a whiff of it and it almost seemed familiar. He should have listened to Timon who advised that he took a carriage to meet with his family. But something told him to go his usual route.He halted his steps to listen to be sure he heard right. All of sudden a big wolf matching his frame jumped at him from nowhere sinking his teeth into Ronan’s upper body, but he missed and only got to tear out a bit of his fur. Before he could get a grip on the situation, the attacker pushed him to the ground aiming for his neck vein. Ronan fought hard and gave the wolf a wild kick that sent him reeling backward.Ronan hurried to his feet, gnashing his teeth at his attacker. Just then the attacker shifted into their form leaving Ronan in shock. Callum turned out to be the one behind the wo

    Ronan’s POVSomeone banged recklessly on the door waking me up roughly from my sleep. I have barely gotten an hour of sleep in. My mind has been laced heavily with thoughts that had prevented me from sleeping at the due time. Groaning, I sat up with my back bent. It's actually morning, how long was I asleep?Timon made his way in, bowing slightly towards me. “Your majesty,”“Really? Why would you hit on the door like that?” I questioned.“It was not my doing. Ava was at the door.”“Has she lost her mind? Where are the guards when you need them to do their jobs? Why wake me up so early in the morning?”“It's not exactly morning your majesty. It is way past noon. Are you alright? You don’t look well rested.”I rubbed my forehead, staring intently at the wall. “Something is coming, Timon. But I do not know what it is and my heart is burdened. I couldn’t get any sleep because of it. If anything goes wrong please protect my family.”He sighed. “Don’t be like that, we will resolve whatever

    Ronan’s POV“Where is that bastard?” Levi yelled as he stormed my study.Three guards stood behind him ready to strike at my order. They must have restrained themselves since he is my in-law. I nodded towards them to excuse us. Timon gave me a questioning nod.“What is all this about Levi?” I inquired.“Oh, really? So you do not know what all this is about? Where is my sister, Ronan? Did you have your child bearer skin her alive? So what if she tried to kill her? Isn’t she an intruder in the first place? You should be ashamed of yourself for picking a mere stranger over your mate.” He ranted.I exchanged a confused look with Timon before looking back at the fuming man. “What you are saying now is that you do not see any wrong in what your sister did?”“Yes, and for what it is worth, you are to blame. If you didn’t turn away from her and make her feel unneeded she wouldn’t have gone that far. But what excuse do you have now that she is carrying your child and your child bearer is very

    Author’s POV“Freya?” Callum called out. No response came. He rubbed at his neck in discomfort and moved closer. She was unmoving and blood appeared to be flowing from her head to the ground.He gulped hard and felt her pulse. Callum cursed under his breath at the eventuality of his action. Not only had her breath seized, she couldn’t be revived. Freya was dead. Covering his eyes with both hands, he groaned like a wounded lion. This wasn’t supposed to end like that. The only death he intends to have on his hands next is Ronan’s.His breath hitched at every passing second. Rising to his feet, he took in a deep breath to calm himself. There is no need to start hyperventilating when the deed has already been done. First, he has to get her cleaned up and find a way to dispose of her body, but then it will take a lot of work. If anyone gets to know that the queen is missing, it won’t take long for her to be traced down to him.Callum searched around for anything that would do to stuff her

    Author’s POVFreya gasped for breath like she had been hit in the chest. Nothing prepared her for the murderous look in his eyes. She could sense the irritation in his expression. Her legs wobbled and her lips quivered. Ronan was supposed to be obsessed with her now that she was pregnant. He is meant to cherish her like no other. Instead, he appears to be disgusted by her.She pulled at her hair with shaky hands. A muffled scream escaped her lips, she tried hard to let it all out but nothing came. The tears rolled down her face, almost blinding her. Freya sat still just staring blankly into space. It is as if every time she tries to give Ronan a chance to amend his ways, he walks onto the destructive path.Regret creeps in as she thinks of Callum. He had been the only one who came to her rescue and assured her of a secure future. Instead of making sure their relationship is sealed and they have themselves to count on. She plotted his death. All because of Ronan.The more she thought a

    Ronan’s POV“You didn’t find anything?” I asked Timon for the umpteenth time like my ears had gone deaf.He bowed his head, “I am sorry, Your Majesty. I must have gotten the wrong information.”Ruffling my hair, I sank onto the couch feeling an unexplained exhaustion. I had eventually hurried back to the palace in the hope that Timon would catch onto something. Even though we do have a missing knife to prove that my uncle had something to do with his friend's death, it is not enough to accuse him of killing his wife.Even though it doesn’t sound right, I am beginning to hope he might have a link to the enemy tormenting me. It probably was Elder James. What if my uncle was trying to defend me? Won’t it be wrong of me to be so hard on a person who is more like my parent?Timon dragged a foot on the ground. “Please say something.”I held his gaze, shrugging. “I really wish I could say something to you, but I do not know what to say.
