**ELODIE'S POV**

The moment I set foot into the house, Eloise came rushing to me and pulled me into a tight hug.

"Sis, I've missed you so much. I thought I would never get to see you again," she mumbled in tears and pouted. "I've been telling you to come over, but you wouldn't. Why?"

"Do I seriously have to deal with this girl? She is the least of my problems right now. It's been a week since my encounter with the Lycan King, and he hasn't responded since then. Did I not convince him enough?"

"Elodie, are you even listening to me?" Eloise snapped me out of my thoughts.

"I'm sorry, what were you saying?"

"What's wrong, Sis? You've been lost in thoughts since you came. Is something bothering you? You know you can tell me anything."

"It's nothing, Eloise. Something has been on my mind lately. I just need some time to gather my thoughts. So don't worry, I'm fine." I held her hand and flashed her a big smile.

"How have you been? I've missed you. I didn't want to come over because... you kn

    **ELODIE'S POV**Just when I thought all hope was gone, when I believed my second life was going to be ruined by these people again, a hoarse voice I recognized demanded."What is going on here?"I didn't need to be told who it was. It was him, the Lycan King. He came!"Announcing the presence of His Majesty, the King in the Moonstone household. Greetings to all of you.""Your Majesty," everyone present greeted with a low bow. I turned swiftly and saw him standing across. The joy that swelled up inside me knew no bounds, and without thinking twice, I ran to him. I wanted to hug him but snapped myself out. We aren't even close, so why should I hug him?But seeing how everyone in my family glared at me, daring me to get any closer, I circled my arms around his waist and hugged him. For a split second, I felt his body stiffen."Your Majesty, you came! I thought you wouldn't make it on time." I mumbled loud enough for my family to hear. I can already imagine the horror on their faces. But

    **ELOISE'S POV**I paced my room to and fro, gnawing at my finger in pure frustration. I've already turned my room upside down out of anger.I still can't believe it. No, I will never believe it. That Elodie would do something like that to me. How dare she?! How dare she stab me in the back like this?!When did Elodie change this much? How did she slip out of my grip and control? I was the one in control of her life since we were kids. She depended on me. She was nothing without me! She couldn't even breathe without me!She was fragile, a weak, pathetic wolf. She was naive to the highest order. She was gullible, she was stupid and useless. I could easily break her and remold her however I wanted.Then what changed everything? I noticed something was wrong when she woke up two weeks ago. The way she drastically changed, I still don't understand.What suddenly gave her the courage she never had to break off her engagement just when I was about to get her to tell me about the deed and fi

    ELODIE'S POV His reaction was nothing like I had expected. He let go of my waist and turned his back on me."You are free to prepare your own food. You don't need my or anyone's permission. Just ask the maids to give you the space and time you need."I beamed slightly."You can leave," he mumbled and went back to his seat."Thank you for understanding, Your Majesty," I bowed and happily left the room. I didn't expect he would understand. I thought he was trying to judge me just like everyone else.He was just worried about me. I smiled to myself but quickly slapped myself out of it. No, I'm sure that's not the case. The Lycan King can never be worried about me. He was just concerned for his reputation. Yes, that must be it.THE NEXT DAYI was just about finishing breakfast when one of the guards entered."Your Majesty," he immediately bowed. "I apologize for interrupting you, but there's a crazy man outside creating a ruckus. He is demanding to see you.""Who?""He said he is Alastai

    ELODIE'S POVI froze on the spot, with eyes widened in horror and still trying to process what was going on as Alastair's lips played with mine. All of a sudden, I went out of breath, and my chest tightened. I tried to push him away, but I couldn't move my arms. My whole body felt numb. His arms circled my waist and squeezed me even closer.I can't breathe. I can't fucking breathe. No. I need to push him away. I have to...A hand out of nowhere grabbed me and pulled me away from Alastair's grip. The first thing that snapped me back to reality was the hard punch that was sent right to Alastair's face, which had him hurling to the ground. I could finally breathe again. I looked up to see who was holding me close, and it was none other than Khoas.His red eyes blazed in rage as they scowled at Alastair, who was still trying to get up from the floor. Fear gripped me, seeing how deadly his eyes had become."Your... Majesty...""Lock this bastard in the dungeon. I will deal with him later,"

The mere thought of it made goosebumps fill my skin.But there was something else bothering me.Everything happening today was mirroring that day. Same gown, same setting, same words from the artist. It felt like a twisted déjà vu, like I'm reliving that day again but in a different place and under a different circumstance.Had changing the past only shifted the course, not altered the outcome? Am I still going to die on my wedding day but maybe in a different way? But I didn't die until 6 months later. Am I going to die sooner because I altered what was supposed to happen? No!

The heavy, pearl one-shoulder mermaid wedding dress brought out the elegance and boldness I wanted, unlike the plain ball dress that Eloise had ruined.The entire Kingdom was present, the atmosphere buzzing with excitement. This marriage ceremony was the most anticipated of the century. Everyone was eager to see the woman who had finally won the Lycan King over.With each step down the aisle, I felt the weight of the past and the future converging.

No, I'm sure that isn't the case.My mother and Eloise were both trying to keep poker faces, but I could already see and feel the anger eating them up on the inside. Eloise was on the verge of letting out a frustrating cry while my Mom tried to calm her down. My father wasn't an exception. As we got closer to where the King was, he muttered

    **ELODIE'S POV**The coronation was over, and everyone left. I was finally led into the palace, and my jaw almost dropped to the floor. The inside was even more extravagant than the outside. I was so lost in the mesmerizing beauty of this place that I didn't even hear the maid and servants bowing to my presence. Well, not until,"Brother!" A voice called out, snapping me out. I looked up to see a man and a woman approaching. I recall seeing these two at the wedding. How did they get here so fast, and what are they doing here, to begin with?The man tried to hug Khoas, who sent him a hard glare. "Do you have a death wish?""Oh, come on, Your Majesty. You can't treat your brother like this."Hold on. "Brother?!" My eyes widened in shock. The King has a brother?"Ignore him, Kian. We are not here for him.

    **ELODIE'S POV** As I was led to the King's chamber, I kept reciting those words in my head. It was the only way to keep my racing heart calm. I was now putting on a robe that hid what I was wearing inside. When we got to the King's chamber, all the maids disappeared. I let out a deep breath and entered. His chamber was bigger than mine, and everything used to furnish it was grey. There wasn't anything extraordinary, and believe me, I'm not even surprised. Almost then, the door of the bathroom opened, and he stepped out. The instant my eyes landed on him, they widened greatly at the sight before me. There he was standing, half-naked with only a towel wrapped around his thin waist. A hard gulp went down my throat as my eyes traveled from his waist up to the bar of chocolate any other person would refer to as abs. It went further to his perfectly built chest before getting to his wet curly hair, which dangled dangerously on his forehead. My heart tripped off again and started beating

Her eyes dilated greatly the moment they landed on me, and she paused in her tracks. "Your Majesty, is this really you?!" She yelled, perplexed. "Permit me to say this, but you are looking, muah! Tantalizing, breathtaking, gorgeous!" She clamored, and I was already chuckling to myself. How is she always so energetic? "I swear His Majesty won't be able to take his eyes off you, and neither will any of the men attending this party. You are going to wreck this party!" I found myself smiling broadly at what she said. I can't help but imagine what it will feel like to have His Majesty stare at me like I am the most precious gem he has seen. Ah! What am I even thinking? "Where is the Royal stylist? I need to give her a huge tip for this. She did splendid!" "Oh, she already left." "Huh, that early?" "Well, I asked her not to bother. An

    **EROS' POV** A knock came on my study room, and my right-hand man, Viktor, entered. "Your Majesty," he bowed. "You demanded my presence." With eyes fixed on the letter I was holding, I demanded, "The pack sent a letter again. There was another mysterious death. What exactly is going on?" "Well, Your Majesty, in two weeks, six wolves in total have been found dead, not only in Midnight Pack but in other packs as well. Their autopsy proves that they all died of the same cause, poisoning. An excessive amount of poison was found in their bodies." I frowned. "Wasn't this poison banned 30 years ago? How could anyone have gotten access to it?" "That is what I'm still figuring out, Your Majesty." "Be quick about it then. I'm not in for any more mysterious deaths. And make sure no one else learns about this. I don't want my people living in fear." "Yes, Your Majesty." "The main reason I called you here is because of the Queen's birthday ceremony.

She glared, and I let out a slight chuckle."Nothing. Thank you.""Whatever." She let go of my hand. "Next time be careful and don't be so clumsy. I won't bother if it happens again. I will just let you bleed till whenever you...""Ah! I think I also cut another of my fingers.""Which one is it? Which one is bleeding?" She immediately grabbed my hand, scanning all of my fingers. I started laughing."Oh. So you find this amusing, eh?""Wait till I chop off all of your fingers for real!""I'm sorry." I tried to hold back my laugh."You're still laughing." She glared."I'm sorry, I'll stop." I let out a deep breath. "Thank you, Your Highness.""Jeez, what the heck is with the formal a

How long have I been sleeping?I felt something warm and hard on my hand. I glanced over only to see His Majesty holding my hand firmly, his head resting on the edge of the bed.Did he spend the night...beside me?Memories of yesterday came flooding.I hated rain since I was little; it was a constant reminder that in this cruel world, I was alone. While kids my age were busy playing out in the rain with either their friends or parents, I was locked in my room, watching them. I had no one to rely on, no one to pour out the heavy thoughts weighing my mind. Rainy days are my loneliest days.But yesterday, for the first time, someone came for me and stayed with me through my loneliest day. While I was ranting with nothing I said made sense, he stayed and listened. He protected me from the cold and held me close.He offered to help

  • I AM THE LUNA IN THIS LIFE    THIS IS OUR REVENGE

    EROS' POV The first time I set my eyes on Elodie was on her eighteenth birthday. The entire kingdom had gathered to celebrate the night of the Blood Moon, a festival held once every year. On that day, many would become full adults, find and mark their destined mate. As the king, it was my duty to host the festival. While everyone was busy looking for their life mate and anticipating the ethereal feeling of finding a mate, I was bored to hell. I have attended this festival thousands of times, and nothing about it was interesting or euphoric for me. While the main festival was yet to start, I left to spend my time in solitude. As I made my way toward the garden, a faint smell brushed through my nose and snapped me out of my thoughts. It was a sweet, gentle, and captivating scent—an enchanting fragrance of sweet olive that caught me off guard. It sent a certain sensation down me that made me pause in my tracks. Like a rope was fastened around my neck, the scent pulled me closer. The cl

    Eros stood before me, shielding me from the cold rain with an umbrella and looking down at me. Our gaze locked, and I saw many emotions flash through his red eyes. "You must think I'm pathetic, right?" My weak, quivering voice spoke. "I know I am worse than pathetic. You must be wondering how someone like me can ever be useful to you as your Luna." "But all I want to know is why. Why would my family do this to me? My parents, the people who brought me into this world. My own mother." "What did I ever do to them? I was only five, so what could I possibly have known or done to them that made them kill me like this? Is a mere deed stronger than the love of parents, the love of a mother? Then how could my mother do this to me?" Nothing I was blabbering was making sense, but I just wanted to blurt out everything the way it was weighing down my heart. I didn't hold back the tears and let them fall freely as I blabbered. "Why? Why me? Why do I have to go through all of this? All I've eve

"I will, Mother, Father.""Your Majesty, thank you for gracing us with your presence today. Please, always keep my princess happy. She has gone through a lot. All she needs right now is someone who will shower her with unconditional love."I snorted to myself. These people should join the film industry already. They would become amazing actors."You don't have to remind me of that," His Majesty began. He circled my waist and pulled me to himself. "I love Elodie more than anything. Her happiness is my top priority."Wow, even His Majesty."We will get going." He held my hand, and we headed outside."Bye, my dear. Take care of yourself, okay?!"I ignored my mot

However, since I began taking these pills, my panic attacks seem to be worsening with each episode.Now that I think about it, why were Eloise and my parents so adamant about me not going to the hospital all these years? Whenever I brought up the idea of going to a therapist, they pushed it aside, saying that these medicines were all I needed. And this panic attack, when was I diagnosed with it? If Eloise hated me all this time, then these medicines... What exactly has she been feeding me?I left my room and went straight to my parent's room. The main reason why I had agreed to come here was to find something I could use against my father.

"Let's go," he held my hand and led me to the Limousine waiting for us outside. He opened the door for me, and I entered. "Don't you think you're forgetting something, My Queen?" he demanded the moment he entered from the other side. I gaped at him in pure confusion. He leaned close and whispered in my ear, "You still haven't decided what to call me... Blue." His eyes traveled down to my lips before looking into my eyes. "Blue? Seriously?" I scoffed. "Yes. That's my nickname for you. Your breathtaking eyes and hair..." He ran his finger through my hair, tucking some strands behind my ear. "Blue," he called in a low, rasped tone, and my heart thumped.
