“Walk me through what happened!” Yulo immediately told them when they reached the best room in the castle and Charlene was carefully put on the bed. “And call all the priests here! I don’t care what they are doing. Tell them to come here at once!” He instructed the servant, Samuel, to gather everyone in the old palace. “I treated her a week ago for a monster attack… but the hunters captured her. There are multiple wounds on her back because of the arrows that hit her. I was able to do first aid, but you know it’s a red moon today— nothing works on them when it’s a red moon besides the divine power from the Moon Goddess,” Prince Valier said as he tried to recall what else he needed to inform the saint. “My son said—” “You have a son!?” Yulo exclaimed but still continued to treat Charlene with his divine power. “We’ll talk about that letter, what did your son say?” “She was poisoned,” Valier continued. He gulped and stared at the saint. “And she is pregnant, Yulo… of the Lycan King
“I am afraid there is still no news about the woman that the scouts saw, Your Highness. Although I have other news that might be music to your ears—” Keiffer handed him a folder containing evidence of the involvement of a certain organization in the death of his brother— the late King Dia. “ — That tattoo was found in not just one but three knights that accompanied your brother; and this one,” he handed him a photo of someone wearing a ram mask. “Is one of the notorious killers from the association that had no name under them. His name is Ram and the tattoo on his neck indicates that he’s part of that organization,” “Find out who this man is— and look more into what I told you about the woman. You have two more days or I will remove all the assets under your name for good,” Adhler stood up and went back to preparing himself for the Royal Wedding that will take place on the same day of his coronation. “You are annoyingly stubborn, Your Highness,” “If you cannot find more about tha
Adhler’s Point of View I looked at the clock and then at the food in front of me. It had been an hour since I officially married my brother’s wife and made her my Luna. The coronation went smoothly earlier like what we had planned. Everything is going as planned. I looked at the delegation— I could feel my heart racing in anger as I stared eye to eye at their king that was smirking at me. Hah. I cannot believe he really came though I only sent him an invitation out of formality. Was he doing it for the pact? That was already useless after he killed my brother… I have no evidence that he was the one that commanded his death yet— but I know I have seen that tattoo with one of his servants before. And I smell it… I smelled the scent of a wolf when I appeared at the scene of my brother’s death. And I know it was one of them since I can smell the same familiar scent again. I gritted my teeth to calm myself. I cannot let this occasion go to waste. My niece is also here to congratulate m
“What do you mean you lost her? How could she escape that palace when hundreds of you are there to look after her?” Yulo was angered upon hearing the news from Samuel. It appears like Charlene had used magic to leave the place even before Samuel could serve her breakfast. “She has no mana left after she used it to protect her child. I did not tell her, but after she consumed more mana than she could handle, she broke her core and would never be able to use magic ever again,” Yulo squeezed his eyes. He’s trying to think where the woman must have gone. Where should she go in this kingdom or did she really leave the castle? How? She should have no energy to move around. It was even a miracle that she had awoken after just three days of getting treatment. She would be needing a month at the very least to fully recover. “Scan the whole damn castle again and look for her. I do not want to hear another excuse that you could not find her! There is no way she has left already. She would not
“And I think I must inform you too that she’s your Luna,” “What?” “Make the announcement tomorrow or I will be the one to tell the people,” “What the hell were you talking about? Charlene has obsidian eyes!” “That is because we— involving her mother— sealed her Lycan powers to keep her from running amok!” King Adhler looked at the woman. The saint has left after treating her and said that he would be back the next day to hear the announcement from Adhler himself. “Is it really the best thing to do, Samarah?” Adhler covered his face with his hands and then stood up to sit by the woman’s side. She’s still asleep and the sun has already set. King Adhler had been beside her ever since he carried her to this room… the room that he had always had prepared in case she would really come to the kingdom— never had Adhler thought that the woman would come this way. In this state… he had never thought that she would suddenly show up full of injuries at that… he had never even considered
“I’m sorry, Adhler,” “People have gathered, Your Highness,” Keiffer informed the Lycan King. He glanced at the king who had been staring at the ring that he had always carried— he did not even look at Keiffer. It seems like he had not heard of him at all. “Your Highness?” King Adhler looked up and saw Keiffer in front of his desk. “When have you arrived?” He asked as he stood from his seat and then glanced at the man again— “Did you not hear me?” “Did you not hear me?” The man asked back at the King and the latter furrowed his brows. “Hahh,” Keiffer sighed. It really does seem like the king has not heard his entrance nor a thing that he said. “Apologies, Your Highness— Let me repeat what I said. The people are already gathered outside your palace and are awaiting your presence. The elders are also there after hearing that you have an important announcement to make regarding your Luna from the rumored revelation from the saint,” Adhler nodded and kept the ring in a box— putting
“Have you heard?” Harry ran to Adolphus’s room after finding out the news from a trusted source earlier. “They found Charlene— and the Lycan King, Adhler declared that she’s the fated Luna that will save the Lycans from the catastrophe that is about to come,” he sat on Adolphus’s bed. The latter had just woken up, Adolphus stood and picked up his clothes. “Why aren’t you worried or even thrilled about this!? That is our sister that they are taking in as their own, Adolphus!” Adolphus put on a shirt and looked at Harry through the mirror, “Our sister?” he asked as if the word was too foreign to be used in the situation. “Right,” he said. His voice was full of mockery and sarcasm as he sat on the bed to wear his shoes. Harry punched him! “What the hell!?” “Our sister? Rights?” Harry mimicked him as he continued punching the man until Adolphus fought back. He kicked Harry and pinned the man on the floor. “Hahh! What the hell happened to you, Adolphus? What the actual hell!?” Harry sho
Weiss’s Point of View “Weiss!” I looked back at the girl who came running to my room. I saw their carriage coming earlier— just how fast did she run to come here in an instant? “I want to marry you when we get older,” she giggled as if what she said was just a simple matter. “I want to marry you and have… one… two… three… four kids! Just like me and my brothers and my sister!” she jumped to my bed and tilted her head— still smiling like a ray of sunshine— waiting for my answer to her sudden proposal. “But what if I don’t want to marry you because I like another woman?” I asked out of curiosity. What will she do if we grow up and I don’t like getting married to her? What will happen then? Will she still pursue me? Will she still say that we should get married? I let out a chuckle because knowing this girl, she would have forced what she wanted to happen— “Hmm…” she looked up and then averted her gaze to me. Her little fingers tapped her chin as if that would help her think of the
