(Migumi's POV)I stood under the shower head, the water raining down on me like a hurricane. This is my first time using this new invention. If it weren't for my friend, Tara, who taught me how to maneuver this, I would have stared at it for who knows how long like an ignorant girl from the province.The experience here in the capital has been amazing so far. It was far different from what I am accustomed to at the Darkwood pack.There are so many things in here that you can't find in Alpha Cyrus’s slowly progressing pack.Well, that's in the past now anyway. I’m not in his pack anymore to worry about the advancement of his pack. My duty as his secret Luna is long done.Stepping out of the shower, I couldn't help but smile at the freshness I felt. I had a really long day on my first day in the capital. I wasn't really expecting to meet the King and Queen, but I guess the Moon Goddess has different plans for me.I stood in front of the large mirror, staring at my reflection. I am alrea
(Migumi's POV)Once again, I found myself in Aiden’s car. However, this time, I’m not alone in the backseat because the prince is with me while his Beta, Marvin, drives for us. He’s not talkative just like the first time I met him, only responding if it’s the prince who is talking to him.We are on our way to Tara’s shop and I couldn't help but get excited about what's waiting for me.My friend told me about all the preparations. That's why I know that her store opening ceremony is going to be a blast. My friend is anything but a cheapskate. I’m sure that she meticulously prepared everything!“How is your studying, Migumi?” Aiden broke the silence. I smiled at him. I’m glad he asked that because I was really looking forward to telling anyone aside Tara about my recent learning.“It’s great. I study court etiquette in the morning and delve in the history of the royal family in the afternoon. Supposedly, I’m going to have combat training with Princess Abigail tonight but I have left an
(Migumi's POV)“Well… If that's what's going to be our topic, then I suggest that we go take a seat because it’s about to get really hot,” she joked, pulling me into a nearby table. I forced a smile, not wanting to spoil her fun.“You look happy,” I remarked.Her smile widened. “Of course, I am happy, Migs. Prince Anthony and I have done everything a couple would do. We go on dates. We ate on one plate. We ran under the pouring rain. We danced to romantic music. I think I love him…” she dreamingly said, her eyes shaped like hearts as she reminisced the things she did with him.I would have been happy for him if I didn't know about his deception, but all I could think about right now is how evil he is for doing all that just to gain my friend’s trust.How evil could he be to play someone's heart like that?“Do you think he loves you?” I asked, a hint of doubt in my tone which made her look at me offended. It was too late to take my words back however.And I have no plans of doing so an
(Migumi's POV)I can’t stop worrying about what I heard in the restroom earlier. The contemptuous laughs of Prince Anthony and his insulting comments about Tara keeps on echoing in my head. I knew that I can't just stay in my room and pretend that I didn't hear that.Once again, I glanced at the telephone that I have been wanting to grab since I got back home.Separating from Aiden earlier was really heard, especially because there's something I really wanted to tell him. I wish I had told him this earlier.I closed my eyes as I let myself grab the telephone and dial his number.*Toot* *toot* *toot*Its dialing sounds make me nervous the longer it takes. I feel my heart beating out of my che—[Hello?]My eyes lit up as soon as I heard Aiden’s voice.“Uhmm… hello.”What do I tell him now?[Hi, Migumi. It’s 10 o'clock in the evening. Do you miss me already?]Aiden chuckled softly.I wanted to say yes, but there's just no time for me to play sweet couple with him right now. I have to tel
(Migumi's POV)We stared into each other’s eyes, waiting for someone to initiate our next move. My eyes widened when I felt myself lifting up the ground.Aiden is carrying me!!!I giggled silently, covering my face, as he took me away from the garden and brought me to his room.We tried our best to not make a sound, walking on eggshells until we can finally let ourselves be loud once we reach his room. However, it seemed like nothing could silence the pleasure we are feeling for each other.I find myself moaning mindlessly as I feel his kisses on my neck as we make our way to the silent halls of the palace.I don't even know how he’s able to do this and how we are not yet caught. It seemed like the people of the palace knew that we’re up into something private tonight and volunteered to hide themselves.*Blag!*The door closes and there's only Aiden and I in his quiet room.“Are you ready to fill this room with your suppressed moans?” he asked, a hint of playfulness in his voice. I sm
[A week later](Migumi's POV)My classes with Lady Arianne are almost completed. She said that we’re already at the last page of our courses. I am genuinely delighted with her help, but something just doesn't seem right about her teachings.As you may all know, I have my morning classes with her about court etiquette. However, I noticed some errors with her teachings.For instance, she told me that the proper dress code when attending formal occasions like grand banquets and weddings required women to wear shoes and sandals that expose their toes. However, upon observing I noticed that none of them really do that. As a matter of fact, I was considered offended when I attended a wedding wearing sandals that showed my toe nails.Tara revealed to me that it was rude to wear that and asked me to change my shoes.I let that one pass, thinking that it might just be a genuine mistake on Lady Arianne’s part. But as day passes, I begin to realize how many mistakes she has taught me.It’s almos
(Aiden's POV)“What?” I asked in anticipation, my heart leaping in joy and excitement. “Did I hear you right?”She nodded her head softly. I turned my body to face her. I couldn't hide the happiness on my face. I feel like I’m floating on cloud nine.Did I really hear her right?'She said yes, dumbass!'I ignored my wolf’s temper and embraced her in my arms. I hope she could hear my heart beating so fast. God knows how much I waited for this day. I don't think I would be able to control my emotions right now.“Are you happy?” she asked innocently.I pulled away from our hug, looking into her beautiful face. What does she mean? Of course, I am happy. Words are not enough to describe how happy I am right now. I might just…And just like that, I closed the gap on our faces, feeling her lips against mine.“You're gonna to be the best and strongest Luna the Kingdom has ever had,” I whispered to her lovingly, making her eyes filled with tears.I have always known that Migumi is special. Her
(Author's POV)Anthony raced back and forth in his chambers. Inside his troubled mind is the nes spreading across the palace like wildfire about Aiden’s preparations for Migumi’s impending transformation.He knew that once the woman completes her transformation, then there's no way he can replace Aiden with the throne.Earlier, while he was on his way to Tara’s shop to continue his seduction plan with him, he encountered Aiden’s Beta on the way. He was speaking with event organizers who seemed to be very excited with whatever they were preparing for.Of course, the sly prince wouldn't let that pass without knowing what they were doing. He knew he had to know what was going on.“What's the preparations for? Is there any event I’m missing?” he asked, interrupting the conversation between Beta Marvin and the three organizers. They all looked at him surprised. “Forgive me. I was just curious since I think I heard my cousin’s name.”Beta Marvin, trusting him as his Alpha’s cousin, gave all
(Migumi’s POV)[5 Years Later]The entire kingdom is gathered in the grand courtyard today to celebrate our son’s birthday. The setup was as extravagant as his spirit with an orchestra band playing live in the corner, and a series of different cuisines to choose from.Aiden and I decided to do a mass potluck for everyone to enjoy. Everyone is welcome to celebrate with us, even the commoners.My mate stands beside me, his hand resting lightly on my back. He smiles, his eyes crinkling at the corners, and I can't help but mirror his joy. He's a proud father, and seeing Kai surrounded by so much love fills him with a warmth that radiates outside."He's growing up so fast," Aiden murmurs, his voice barely audible over the din.I nod, a bittersweet pang in my chest.It feels like just yesterday when I was still cradling him in my arms like a tiny bundle of wonder. Now, he's a boisterous boy, running around, being friendly with everyone. It's something he learned from Aiden."He's a good boy
(Migumi’s POV)[Five Years Later]My lips curved into a smile as the polished marble floors of the hallway echo with the sound of our son’s laughter. It sounded joyous, cutting through the quiet hum of the castle.Aiden and I exchange a knowing smile, our hearts swelling with a warmth that only a parent can understand. Our son, Kai, is like a symbol of luck as he runs around the castle, his tiny legs pumping as he races down the hallway. And just like the usual scenarios, the servants are struggling to keep up with him again."Kai!" Aiden calls out, his voice booming with amusement.I watched him intercepts our son, scooping him up into his arms. Kai squeals with delight, his laughter erupting like a cascade of tiny bells. I look at them, a smile playing on my lips. Aiden sets Kai down, his hand resting gently on his son’s shoulder."You're getting quite the reputation for being a mischievous little sprite," Aiden says, his tone laced with affection.Kai giggles, his eyes sparkling wi
It is an afternoon of breeze, meaning she does her gardening and is enjoying it very much.The smell of freshly turned earth and blooming roses fills my nostrils as I kneel, carefully pruning the overgrown lavender bushes.A shadow falls over me, and I look up to see Aiden standing there, a hesitant smile on his face."Migumi," he starts his voice low. "I have something to tell you."My heart does a little jump. This is what I have been waiting for, to hear from him what he has found out. "What is it, Aiden?" I ask, my voice barely above a whisper."The elders," he says, his eyes shining with a newfound hope, "they're finally willing to accept us."A wave of relief washes over me, as it has been in my hopes for this day, hoping someday I'd be accepted into our community. My lips curve into a wide smile, and before I know it, I throw my arms around him, burying my face into his chest."Oh, Aiden," I whisper, choked with emotion. "I'm so happy for you."He holds me close. I feel his arm
(Migumi’s POV)The sound of people's laughs and gratefulness was something that reminds me of the good decision I made for them.Elders of the pack, especially those who were responsible for the finances of the entire pack didn't agree with my plan to distribute bags of gold to the werewolves. They argue that it would ruin the natural order of the economy.“Are you happy?” I asked my mate who is currently busy taking care of the people.She glanced at me and smiled.“Of course!”My lips curved into a smile. I wanted to ask more, but I didn't want to burden her anymore, so I just stayed out of her business.I was leaning against the wall, watching her when Beta Marvin suddenly came to me.“Your Majesty, the Elders would like to remind you of your conference with them,” he reported. My brows arched. I*****The heavy oak door of the council office creaks open, and I step inside. The Elders are seated around a massive table, their faces etched with years of wisdom and power.I feel a kno
(Migumi’s POV)I woke up to the sound of someone's gentle voice pulling me out from my deep sleep. When I opened my eyes to confirm if it was the love of my life, I proved myself correct. “Migumi…”His voice was so soft as his hand gently shook my shoulder. I stir, my eyelids heavy with sleep.I groan, burying my face deeper into the pillow. “Five more minutes,” I mumble.For some reason, I felt comfortable to act like a teenager being woken up by her parents. I dare to request for another minute and more, thinking that I don't have to be so hard on myself anymore.We're safe.“You’ve been asleep for hours,” he says, his hand lingering on my shoulder.I open my eyes, blinking against the light. Aiden’s face is a blur of concern. “What time is it?” I ask, my voice thick with sleep.“It’s almost noon,” he says. “We need to get ready for the feast.”I sit up, pulling the blanket tighter around me. My head is pounding. I feel like I’ve been running a marathon in my sleep.Then, it hit me.
(Migumi’s POV)"It was Diana," she says, her voice barely a whisper. "She tricked me. She made me do it."I watch her, my heart a lead weight in my chest. I know Charlotte,That's something that doesn't surprise me anymore. Diana has always been cunning and deceitful. And I know that Charlotte capable of making mistakes, of being manipulated, but this… this is different.She was a very easy target."You were scared of her," I say, my voice low and steady. "You were scared because she threatened you when you wanted to give up the original plan."Charlotte flinches at my words, her gaze dropping to her lap. She doesn't deny it. She doesn't need to.I know the truth just like everyone else. What happened to her wasn't the first time it happened. It happened to many others before her.The truth is etched on her face, in the way her shoulders slump, in the tremor of her hands."I didn't want to do it," she whispers, her voice barely audible. "But Diana… she said she'd hurt me if I didn't."
(Migumi’s POV)We buried the little boy that same day. It was truly heartbreaking, and a lot of the healers decided to go to his funeral because he had nobody.I wish I could have done more. It feels like I failed him and myself.A part of me blames my situation, but I know for a fact that things could have gotten better if only I did everything to protect the boy.But what can I do? I am only one.The cell door clangs shut behind me, the sound echoing off the cold stone walls. In my hand is a plate full of prison food. This is actually better than the ones common prisoners receive.I learned from the guards that Charlotte is trying to kill herself by starving. She has refused to eat anything since Prince Anthony’s defeat.I guess she was hoping that she could free herself by being loyal to them.This should be the time for her to repent.I stopped in front of her cell, my expression blank and emotionless.Charlotte sits in the corner, a hunched figure shrouded in shadows. Beside her
(Migumi’s POV)The love we shared last night must have been one of the most amazing things that I experienced these last few days.It’s been busy here in the Kingdom. The healers are still in the process of catering the infected werewolves, but I could tell that they're getting better. I have received many grateful messages from people. It feels nice to hear them finally able to accept me as their Luna.Well, it’s not really everyone. There are still some Elders who are demanding that I leave my position. They still don't think I deserve to be here.It was probably due to the fact that the Legend told them bad things about the moonwolf.I have already debunked that, and it’s up to them whether they're going to believe it or not.As long as I know that I’m doin anything to hurt anyone, I won't stop doing my responsibilities as a Luna. The world deserves a savior.“Where are you going?” Aiden asked, scratching his eyes.He just woke up from his sleep. I was trying not to make a sound to
(Migumi’s POV)Without second thoughts, he pulled my legs towards him, sliding them on his sides. I moaned after my private part bumped on his bulge.I excitedly looked at him, feeling more hornier than ever. He gave me a stare that could make anyone wet themselves.“You're so hot,” he whispered in between his hot breaths.I plastered a seductive smirk on my face, feeling his warmth in between my legs.“I know,” I replied, a hint of confidence in my voice. I began gliding myself to his growing bulge. It made him bite his lower lip, while making sure not to break eye contact with me. “Pull those pants down. I missed that little guy.”I watched him unbuckle his belt like a hungry child waiting for her milk.My eyes lit up as soon as it was just his boxer left to cover his private part. I took the initiative to take it down from its hiding spot. I gasped when it sprung out like a toy. It’s very hard and long. It’s almost the same size as a bat.How do I fit that inside of me?“Are you sc
