King's Luna: Once weak, now Fierce. 42
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 42.ESMERALDA’S POV.We were given the permission to settle down, and so we did. Everyone gracefully settled back on their seats comfortably, and as the gentleman I still believe he is feigning to be, Zayde helped push my seat a tad bit forward so I would be comfortable before he settled down on his seat.I offered him a small smile, then whispered a ‘thank you’ under my breath.He offered me a small back, his expression mirroring mine. “You are welcome.” He whispered back, then settled down on his own seat as well, pulling it forward a bit so he would be comfortable while every one else did the same, making ourselves comfortable—or as comfortable as one can be in front of these royals anyway.The night started out with a little speech about the history and importance of the blood moon night in the Lycans and werewolves alike by one of the oldest council members, which eventually transitioned into a ground for the King to say a couple of words. He kept it short, ba

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 42.ESMERALDA’S POV.I have never been much of a dancer, though I liked the idea of it. However, Anthony was never a fan of it—even when it comes to dancing for official purposes like the waltz and stuff—he always stays out of it. So, back in the days when I used to accompany him to occasions where such dance would take place, I would always be by the side, watching as the others go about it.I admired them, because most times, they seemed to be having fun. I wondered what it would be like for me to dance like that as well, with Anthony, as someone that I love. Now, I am finally living in that dream and fantasy, only, I am not dancing with Anthony for he had long faded out of the picture, and was instead, dancing with The Crown Prince, Alexander Malakai—someone I have feelings for, feelings I know deep down that I should not have.However, those worries and insecurities seemed to perish as we danced together on the floor, every one and everything else in the backgr

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 44.ESMERALDA’S POV.I was not surprised Valeria seemed to know her place around the palace, or that she was already aware of the plan. For a second, I wondered when they met each other, or how he managed to pass the information to her, but then I realized later on how stupid it was of me to have that thought.He can get the message to her if he wants to, any how he wants it and that would not be a problem. But, now as I followed her, I realized how little I know about Valeria truly. Yes, she and I have been friends for a while now, but I do not think I have ever sat down and actually spoke to her, about who she is, what she truly does, and what so ever. I made a mental note to ask her about it when we head back to the academy later on, because I believe I should know those I keep close to me well enough.She expertly guided us down a path where they were a few guards, and the ones we passed by did not seem to even bat an eyelid upon watching us walk down wards whe

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 45.ESMERALDA’S POV.To say I was shocked will be an under statement. I have not heard from my wolf since that night Anthony rejected us, and we lost our pup. She was still there—I could feel her in almost every thing I do how ever, I do not hear a thing from her.When ever I try to talk to her, she does not reply. In that sense, she has been dormant and for a second, I had forgot what it feels like to hear her speak in my mind. Of course, when ever we were around the Crown Prince, I have realized that she seems to be a bit more active, though she does not influence my attitude much.I now understood why, just as much as the new found knowledge shocked me to the core. I found myself stepping away from him, my mind a jumbled mess as I stared at him with lips parted, and eyes dilated. “I…” I breathed out, trying to make sense of what was going on. “…I…”My hand was still in his grip, and I was now overly aware of the tiny little sparks that came from the feel of his

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 46.ESMERALDA’S POV.I was shocked, but not scared. The note, it left an unsettling feeling on me, especially with how my name was written, seemingly more crooked and rugged than the other words written down. The fact that the person already wrote the title ‘princess’ along with my name showed the person has been aware for a while—given the blood had already dried so it must have been written at least over an hour—even the time taken for Malakai and I to dance could not have reached an hour, to us being here entirely.It could only mean one thing…the person has been aware for a while—even longer than I have been aware that Malakai is my mate, and I, his. I do not know much about Malakai, but with what I already know, I know he will not disclose the news to just anyone.The only ones he could trust with that secret must be those within his closest circle—perhaps Valeria, Elias, and someone else? But is there anyone beside him that would betray him? Could it be Elias

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 47.ESMERALDA’S POV.Stepping out of the room I had stayed in before, the first time I woke up after the rejection from Anthony, a sense of nostalgia swelled within me. But, unlike the first time, it did not hold me back or made me feel as though life was not worth living entirely. Instead, I felt empowered, and strong—as though I had walked past that stage and have emerged stronger than ever.As I descended the stairs, now changed into a more comfortable outfit that was waiting for me—though the slacks and top heavily scented of Malakai—I did not hate it, but rather, quite liked it. The sound of the voices from downstairs reached my ears—familiar voices I recognize as one belonging to Malakai—and the other to his most trusted aide, Elias. Upon reaching the end of the stairs, they both noticed my presence and I realized they were seated in the living room—or at least, Malakai was seated while Elias stood, his stance firm and judging from his expression, he did not

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 48.ALEXANDER’S POV.“That night, I and Elias were chasing a lead,” I started, my hands firmly on her hips—my thumb drew invincible circles on it, my mind far as I recalled the night I met her, every thing playing right in my eyes as if it happened just a while ago, and not weeks now. “We happened to cross your pack’s border, but of course, no one was aware and even if they were, we had full immunity to cross whichever pack lands we desire.”I was not trying to show off or anything, merely stating facts. The royal family, my father and I to be specific, have the immunity to cross any pack land without any notice as we deem fit. It helps with surveying the packs for any purpose, especially to ensure things are going accordingly because if they do know that we are coming, then whatever it is they were doing, they would conceal it.So, for transparency sakes, we tend to check pack lands every once in a while without them knowing—with my father’s condition and position

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 49.ALEXANDER’S POV.After a short while, Esmeralda managed to get a hold of herself. It was not like she was completely over it, but she was good enough to keep going with the conversation at hand, which was what was important—that she was slowly getting over the lost. I have never lost a child before, but I know it would not be an easy matter to handle, so, I can only help her heal at her own pace.Esmeralda pulled herself back from my embrace, though our fingers remained intertwined still. Then, she lifted her head to meet mine, her brows drew in and a crease forming between her brows—a testament of whatever string of questions she has and what has been bothering that pretty mind of hers thus far.“And the note?” She asked, reminding me of the other part of the story I am yet to venture down the path of. “What is up the note? What is going on?”I sighed, blinking as my visage took a turn, upon remembering the grave, and dangerous part that she has been unaware o

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 106. ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV. We have lost a number of people because of the battle, one of which happened to be Anthony. We did not realize it until we were going through the deceased, and that was when we saw him. I admit, my heart did squeeze when I saw him, and I felt bad but as the Alpha he was, he had a deserving and well respected funeral back at his pack for him. Elder Aloha Theron was also lost in the fight,and the entire Kingdom mourned not just for his death, but for the death of every single person and warrior that had sacrificed thier life for the greater good. There were mourning days for the fallen wolves, one that the entire Kingdom did in respect for them. And afterwards, the crowning ceremony took place in which my mate, Alexander Malakai was crowned King at long last, and beside him, I was pledged Queen and Luna. He kept to his words, and after the crowning and all, took me to go and see my parents. But even having the position of the

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 105 ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV.They say, hell hath no fury like a woman scorned and I have never believe that as much as I did today. All I saw was red as I fought against those guards that wanted to take my life, I have no idea what got into me but I had this need to just end it all, to save my child at all costs.Ruby and Valeria managed to escape as well, and they joined in on the fight just as I was about to be overpowered by the wolves there. They helped me fight Elias to death and even brought a little present to me—the Queen that was in the house and they managed to capture. I took her as bait, and then led us to the battle grounds because after all. She is the root cause of all this. And what is more pathetic is that she is weak. She could not and did not attempt to fight me and if she did, I would gladly pull her dead body there. The ground was cold beneath my feet, but I barely felt it. My heart was hammering in my chest, every pulse a reminder of

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 104 CROWN PRINCE ALEXANDER MALAKAI LUIS’S POV.I have been anticipating the battle for the longest time, and I thought I had fully prepared myself for the bloodshed and was more than willing to sacrifice whatever is necessary but I underestimated how I would feel to have some of my people gone as a result of it.The reeking stench of blood filled my lungs. It clung to the cold, biting and arctic air, mixing with the sharp tang of iron and the wet, sickly smell of death. A scent I have gotten accosted to unfortunately.I stood in the middle of it all—bodies of fallen wolves littering the snow-covered ground, once proud warriors now reduced to motionless husks. Blood seeped into the white beneath them, staining the battlefield like a macabre canvas. Their eyes, wide open, stared into nothingness. My fallen soldiers, their lives gone like the wisp of wind for the sake of the throne and the Kingdom. As much as my heart ached at the sight, I knew I could not let it ge

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 103 ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV. As I tried to wake up, my whole body ached, and my head was pounding almost as if something was being used to hammer it. I tried to move my body, but my limbs were sore and aching while it felt weak as well. I released a breath, then tried to part my eyes open. At first, my gaze was blurry but after a couple of blinking, I managed to clear away the blurriness. That was when I got the chance to fully look around my surrounding and take it in, my mind registering the seeming cell I am held this time around.The cell was suffocating to say the least . Cold, damp stone surrounded me on all sides, the air thick with the stench of mild dew and something more metallic—blood, probably old. It reminded me of the old cell I was held in just a few days ago, and I felt nauseated to be honest. Way too much if I am being direct but I tried to hold it back.There were no windows, just a small, rusted grate near the ceiling that allowed in t

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 102. ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV. The time it took to reach the safe house this time was much quicker than the last when I came with Kai and left with Elias. True to Kai’s words, as we approached the place, even I could not tell that the cottage was there because he had made it invincible. The moment we got through the barrier though, the cottage was in sight and Elias explained how only we can get in, an outsider would not be able to get past the barrier. Once in the confines of the homey cottage, despite the recluse it offered from everything going out there, the tension in the room was evident stemming from each and every one of us being worried for what the outcome might be. I feel bad rmtowards them all honestly. I know if it was up to them, they would be out there fighting as well but they had to stay back and stay with me. I would have preferred to be out there as well not stow away out here, hiding like a coward. If not for the child I am carrying, a

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 101. ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV.At this rate, the amount of times things just change within a couple of hours is scary. I have been anticipating the moment of change, and so has Kai but I was still caught aback, and my heart hammered behind my rib cage when Elias’s mindlink came to Kai, that the other side have started moving, and have officially declared war on our side.That was how Kai and I found ourselves getting ready—while he prepared to go out for the war, I was preparing to head to the safe house with Ruby and Valeria. Once fully dressed and all charged, Kai and I made our way out to where the others were waiting, hand in hand. We found out them outside by the tunnel that leads to the safe house, the same Kai and went through the last time we found ourselves there.By the entrance of the tunnel, Elias, Valeria, Ruby, Aloha Kael and Zayde were waiting—the ones I noticed Kai seems to have the most trust in. The moment we reached where they were, thier

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 100. ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV. “News has it that the other side plans on striking tonight.” Kai said to me, the minute we stepped foot back in our room, after the meeting had ended earlier with plans on attack and defenses, as well as the situation of posts. It was not announced directly, but we all knew that the battle is only a few hours away. Even as we walked back to our room, the tension thick in the air of the castle was palpable. It could be spotted even from a mile away, and it was impossible to miss. There was this cold, looming dark clouds that hung above the place, a testament and holding a promise of the blood that will be shed in a couple of hours. Both sides have drawn up their swords, and it was no longer a matter of familial bonds or that of brothers. It was a battle for a position, a win or lose situation where there is no in between. A slight sigh escaped my lips as I made my way towards the bed, then settled down on it. Kai came to sett

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 99 CROWN PRINCE ALEXANDER MALAKAI LUIS’S POV.Truthfully, I have since been looking for a way to avenge Esmeralda for all that she has been through, from those that made her end up in the exact position that led her to my arms. Even without it given how fate is we would have ended up together one way or another, it did not have to be as bloody and costly as it was.So, did you think I would miss the chance to make the people pay? Anthony I let off the hook for that short moment, because he is one of my people and I cannot dispense him without making such of him especially at such a critical moment. His little chosen mate though that he has sent home, upon realizing who she was, I caught while she is on the run—another reason for me to query him later on piling up. That cold air of the dungeon pricked and nibbled at my skin as I went down into the deepest parts of the palace, my boots echoing against the old and wet stones of the pathway. This was where I kept tho

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 98CROWN PRINCE ALEXANDER MALAKAI LUIS’S POV.You see, I have always been a firm believer of keep your friends close, and your enemies even closer. Sometimes, your greatest enemy could be right beside you all along. Just as your greatest ally could be right beside you as well without you knowing, or with you knowing. Whichever way it works really.In my case, that ally and foe has been my brothers, the ones that could compete with me should the throne become vacant as it is right now as of this moment. You see, my dearest step mother, Queen Zara has always fancied her eldest child over her second—she had higher hopes and higher plans for her first son and the perfect one, while the second son got ignored and never commended for whatever it is he had ever done.It did not matter if he ever does something good, he would not be commended for it but rather, ignored. So he became the bad one, befitting if the lack of comments and rightfully taking the brunt of her anger
