KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 17.ESMERALDA’S POV.The rest of the day pretty much passed by uneventful, with everyone seeming to keep to themselves or their closed ones. We have the same eating canteen with everyone, and with lunch and dinner time being similar, most of us showed up at the same time though the entire hour is dedicated to eating so anyone can show up within that hour and eat whatever during that period.After dinner, both Valeria and I returned to our rooms, promising to meet tomorrow at dawn. I took a quick shower to get rid of the day’s activities. Afterwards, I got under the covers and slept off, not before setting the alarm by the beside cabinet to wake me up an hour to the time we are supposed to head out.Luckily for me, it woke me up just in time, and having being used to wake up that early, I got out of bed without much struggle. Showering, a newfound surge of confidence sparked through my veins as I prepared for the day, and after the shower, I made my way towards the
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 18.ALEXANDER’S POV.She is here.I had to fight every fiber in my being from storming over to her and snatching her into my arms away from the prying eyes of everyone in that room. The moment I stepped into the assembly hall to welcome the new recruits, her scent instantly welcomed me, overcoming the overwhelming medieval scent of the buildings that I had gotten used to, having grown up in one.Even as everyone had bowed their heads down, the recruits all on their knees, my gaze instantly swept the room in an attempt to look for her. She looked up just in time, and our gazes met and believe me when I said, it took every bit of self restrain to make my way towards the podium and not down the hall, to get to her.Restraint, I reminded myself. Keep it professional…for her sake.She was the first to look away, and my beast whined at the act, wanting nothing more than to keep staring at her. He is a bigger sucker than I am really, they always are. I kept those feelings
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 20.ESMERALDA’S POV.I ignored him, pretending as if he was not there to begin with and simply focused on the task at hand as he went on to introduce himself—long ass stories I honestly know is nothing but bullshit. I doubt there is anything he can say at the moment that would make me look at him in a good light again.After the long ass stories, we were asked to form a circle and that we would spar each other for a test of strength and agility—apparently he would assess our overall capability and see just how good we are individually.Every group had dispersed to their chosen place of training, already pre determined by the Alphas it appears and he was leading us towards ours. Light chatters filled the air as some that knew each other spoke to each other, and then there is I, at the end of the line, alone with no one to speak to.At least, so I thought until someone from the line moved behind, coming to stand in front of me.“Hey,” Her voice came, slightly cheerfu
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 22.ESMERALDA’S POV.I am not one to hate people—but this lady in particular, I dislike quite a lot. Reason being, she does not know when to stay in her lane and when to get the fuck out of one’s life. I have been ignoring her all this while, hoping to stay as far away from her as possible but she does not understand that concept—picking at Ruby and I at every chance she gets.The worst part? I do not even know a valid reason for her to do so other than the ordeal on our first day—but even I had forgotten that. Should she not grow up and forget it as well? Or is she that jobless? We already have our hands full already.Her lips curling upwards into a wider smile made my hands itch to wipe it away, but I held myself back. There is a strict no fighting rule in the academy—except when you are put against each other that is. Fighting leads to severe consequences as they say, and there is no need for me to risk my admission for her, or anyone else.Still, I cannot bring
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 23.ESMERALDA’S POV.After lunch, the girls and I went our separate ways. Valeria had training she had to go back to, and Ruby wanted to go and rest in her room for a short while as we had gotten the rest of the day off to prepare ourselves for our first test tomorrow.I, on the other hand, decided I could use a moment to myself to have a practice session for I am anything but exhausted. I have too much on my mind, and the only thing capable of getting those thoughts out of my mind is nothing but a brutal training session.I could use the practice as well to prepare tomorrow. We will be made to spar with each other apparently, and though I do not know who I am to be paired with, it is best for me to come prepared for anything for I do not know what I will be hit with.The past few days I had spent in the academy, I have ventured off on my own a couple of times and I have found so many spots I deem private enough for one to train without the prying eyes of the other

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 19.ANTHONYS POV.I feel bad for what happened with Esmeralda. She disappeared after I had rejected her, and no one has seen her since. No one knows that I have rejected, or that she is my mate…or so it appears…it is honestly still so confusing.I know I rejected her, but how can I have two mates at the same time?It is unprecedented, and though my wolf feels Esmeralda is my mate, the bond I have and share with Claire is much stronger. Either way, it does not matter since I had rejected Esmeralda but for some reason, I could not bring myself to tell the others.I am an Alpha, and despite the fact that we are yet to hold the official transition ceremony, even at the Royal Palace, I am now considered the Alpha of my Pack. Our ‘bond’ is not known, but my engagement to Esmeralda is well known.If it is known that I have rejected her, she will not be able to show her face in public again. Again, I do not know why I care exactly, but a part of me felt bad, and some regre
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 16.ESMERALDA’S POV.I am in room 9, and Valeria 11. I do not know who is in room 10 exactly, but I will find out eventually. Both Valeria and I went our separate ways to check out our rooms, promising to meet up later as it will soon be lunch time. We are free to do whatever we want in our free time though, at least, for today we are.“If you want, you can take a look around the place,” Valeria said, as we made a stop in front of my room, as my room came before hers. When I turned around to look at her, she added. “If you need me to accompany you I am right over there,” She pointed at her door, the second after the one next to mine.I offered her a small smile, then shook my head. “Do not worry about me. Just focus on resting. If I do feel like going around, I will find my way around it.” I am not sure I want to step out now. “After all, I might just stay in my room for now. I will have plenty of time to know the place.”“Of course, we will be here for three month
