KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 93. ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV.An exasperated breath escaped my lips, and my gaze softened as I stared at him with questioning eyes, my shoulders slumped. “Kai…” I called out in a small voice, swallowing down a lump as my heart squeezed behind my rib cage painfully so. “…do you really think I did it?” I asked, my voice small in fear of the worst.Kai’s eyes dilated slightly, then a frown marred his features. “No. Of course not. Why would you think so?”I released a sigh, then pushed myself away from him as I got onto my feet, thankfully now I no longer feel dizzy and I could manage to stand on my feet without feeling lightheaded. “Because,” I started in an exasperated tone, “Because you keep pushing me away. Even now, you do not want to me close to me. You do not even want to kiss me back and when you finally did, you kept pushing me away!”Perhaps, I am overreacting, and I would wish for that to really be the case rather than him truly ignoring me. I know fo

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 94.ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV.I could not quite explain how I felt at that very moment when Malakai broke the news to me. I was not expecting it to say the least, weirdly enough, I never did.I have my reasons for it. For one, my last failed pregnancy and how much it has left an impact on me, I was not so sure I was ready mentally to have another child, so it never crossed my mind. I never even thought I would be pregnant again, I was not sure if I was ready to take the news of such like that. Then again, not to mention, Malakai and I have only been intimate for a short time. I cannot say it was once, because we went at it the night and countless rounds through it, but we have not been intimate again since that night, of course I did not expect this.And the most obvious reason…the hell I went through in the past few days. It was much more than the physical pain I went through when Anthony rejected me, and I lost my first child. Obviously after suffering that

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 95. CROWN PRINCE ALEXANDER MALAKAI LUIS’S POV. The early morning sun crept through the slight and peaky edges of the heavy royal curtains, casting the room in a soft glow. It must have opened slightly due to the breeze from outside because I was sure to close it all well so there wouldn’t be a single ray of light that comes in, lest it disturbs Esmeralda from her sleep.I lay there, still yet very much aware, simply watching Esmeralda sleep. She looked peaceful, her chest rising and falling with each slow breath, her curly auburn hair spilling over the pillow like a work of art. In this moment, all the worries, the weight of my crown, the threats outside these walls—none of it mattered. Here, it was just us. Just she and I mattered and nothing else did.I reached my hand out, my fingers lightly brushing the strand of hair that made its way in her cheek, and then pushed it behind her ear softly. She stirred slightly due to the action, but soon relaxed and then we

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 96 ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV. Everything happened so fast. One minute Kai and I were in bed, enjoying the after moment of our time together and the next, I was walking beside him down the hallway and out to the funeral ground where everyone else is waiting already. Everyone in court, those closest to the royal family, and the entire guards in the palace have all showed up for the private funeral that will be held for the late King. I was not even sure the King was truly sick up until a moment ago, and it just never occurred to me to ask Kai as the time and topic just did not sprout up. So I cannot say I understand what his relationship with his father is, or how he feels about the death much. I did ask him how he feels when he broke the news to me, and he replied with a simple “I’m okay. I have anticipated this.” There was no look of being torn or affected by the death on his expression in the slightest, it seemed he really was not affected in the slightest

KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 97.ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV.“The power strife has begun.” Kai declared, his voice firm, and loud enough to be heard by all of us in the room. There were a total of us that he trusted and deemed close enough in the room, and that included those handpicked seven Alphas—Anthony included surprisingly. Despite their personal beef, I know Kai is well aware that Anthony is an asset to him that he should not let go of—besides, he would need all the allies he can possibly get in order to safely ascend the throne.Aside from the seven Alphas, Elias, Tobias—the third in command are also here. And Valeria of course, as well as Ruby and Zayde that have all seem to leave a good impression on Kai—and have gotten their access to become the royal guards despite not taking the exams—but according to Kai, everything they had to go through is enough to qualify them for the position.There were a few people from the council as well, those that are on his side, which is about hal

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

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 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
