Luna Battle: The Game Quiet Time
The room is silent, and I need to figure out if Darius knows."Are there any other pictures?" I glance at him, trying to see if he knows. He is calm, though; surely he wouldn't be if Luca had put that picture in his room.It shows I'm marked and claimed, so maybe he didn't? Maybe Luca is set to make me look bad by making me lie?"No, this is everyone." Darius sits confused. "What did he look like?" He looks at me. I sense he thinks I'm lying. To what? Cover that I went into Kellan's office, locked myself in and magically put the key on the outside?"He was about five eight, blond hair, green eyes. He was about 200 lbs, and he had a scar at the side of his eye.""So he was real then." I laugh at his words."No, I dreamt him, walked into that room, locked myself in, magically put the key outside, attacked myself and waited to be rescued.""I didn't mean it how it sounded. Had someone used magic to mask their appearance, there wouldn't have been a scar.""Oh. Sorry." How am I still alive

It's been a quiet three days. I have rarely seen Darius and Kellan; they have taken Sage, Emalicia, and a few others on dates. The contestants seemed to be calmer as if Aurora was the one making them crazed.Either that or the fact Aurora was thrown out for her actions has made them realise their glares and words towards me might actually impact their progress here.Either way, no one has called me Mutt since that night. There have been no sly digs or petty behaviour, and while I want to say it's great, it won't last long. These women are like vultures; soon, one of them will slip, and it will return to how it was.The last few days, though, have made me realise how hectic and crazed it was. The whole thing became a sham and just chaos. We're meant to be proving we're the best Luna for the king. Yet right now, I'm not sure any of us are. We have all done things we shouldn't.We have all acted in selfish, irresponsible ways. In ways, the king's Luna never should.I glance up, hearing t

I wake to the loud banging. Jumping from the bed, I force my mind to wake up. Beta Yori walked me back to my room at about four this morning.Grabbing the robe, I wrap it around my body and rush to open the door, hoping the banging stops. It's only 6 am? What the hell?As the door swings open, Beta Pete stands with Beta William."Elara, you need to follow us now." Beta William grips my arm and drags me from the room. I move my feet, trying to keep up with them and fail.My legs are just dragged behind me, and I feel this isn't a good thing. Their faces have no friendliness; they are stern, and their gaze's fixed forward.Beta Luca, the picture. I begin to panic as I am pretty much dragged and thrown into a room. I land hard and groan."You can leave." I glance up, hearing Darius, and the door closes."I'm sorry." Shit, maybe if I explained why I lied before now, this wouldn't be so goddamn bad."Sorry!" His word is loud, and I lean away as he approaches me. "Do you have any remorse as

I sit in this room for an hour while considering how to fix this. There's no way, though.Sure, Darius can say it wasn't me. It will look bad, no proof it wasn't me, yet he's defending me? People already thought I got special treatment.If Darius stands there and says I wasn't the one who did it without showing proof, it makes it look like I’m being treated differently.Sure, he's the king and could just say he isn't willing to share how he knows it wasn't me, but again, it looks suspicious; he showed proof of Aurora and her actions.I hear the door and look up. Darius walks in."You have a choice to make. Not my brother, you. The impact of both choices lies with you, not him. I can't see anything to use that would prove you didn't do it."He sighs. "There is nothing. That hall has no cameras. Even if I got Beta Marcus to lie and say you were in your room, it's still two people to one.""Darius, it's fine." It's my fault."No, it isn't because someone has done this to make you look b

I wake up feeling more alive, unable to decipher what happened after Kellan carried me inside. I no longer have my own gown wrapped around me.This one is bigger and softer. I know I'm in Kellan's bed. Moving, I sit up and look around me. This is not Kellan's room. Where the hell am I? I want to get up and leave. I glance at the clock; it's four, and food will be soon.I don't want to walk through the halls like this. I'm still in my sleepwear. I didn't precisely get a chance to get dressed before they dragged me from my room.This room is so much bigger than Kellan's. I sit confused, trying to remember what happened after Kellan carried me in, but my mind is blank.Did I really pass out?The sound of the door opening has me turning to look at it, and I watch Darius walk in."Good, you're awake." He stands by the bed."Where is Kellan?" I was with him. It was definitely him who came out and got me."He's, I don't know. He said he was working towards something and needed to leave. We c

Getting ready, I walk back through. Everyone is already sitting. Today, Darius is sitting with us. There are two spare seats. Why isn't Kellan Here?Ignoring the thoughts, I walk through and sit. Everyone averts their eyes and avoids looking at me.I smile at Sage, but she turns away from me. Of course, everyone knows. Like Willow would keep it to herself. My eyes go to her, and her hair is now up to her ears. It was always so long and beautiful, so I feel for her.Part of me wants to apologise; the fact that someone used magic to look like me to do it makes it my fault. Even if I didn't cut it, apologising doesn't seem enough. I can only imagine how I would feel to lose my hair.The conversations are quiet, and the producer clearly senses something is wrong. So he doesn't know, which is good. No doubt Darius has said no one can be told. It's clear that something has happened; there is so much tension.I need to explain to Sage it wasn't me. She won't care about me being with Kellan,

Other than eating. I have avoided everything and everyone. I'm safer in my room. It also gives me time to plan. May is amazing. She's been asking me questions others may ask me at the event.It gives me time to think of the answer I should reply with. Kellan and Darius have been on another two dates. That night, after we saw the footage showing it wasn't me. I was brought down to speak with Darius.He apologised again for the punishment, stating he cleared my name. Then he asked what was wrong with my face during dinner.It was just sheer luck that no one else had noticed the scratch, as he hadn't noticed it. Apparently, I'm no good at charades. Who would have thought? After he apologised and I expressed that I wasn't pulling faces at him to cheer him up, even if it made him chuckle, I returned to my room. At least now I know what to do to make him laugh.I've not seen Kellan. Darius has told us he's working on something, that something I am guessing is who is in charge of the missing

I fell asleep against Kellan, talking and finding out more about him. When I woke, he was gone, which was a good thing. I know he is talking to his friend again today.I have spent all day with Sage and Astrid. We have been practising for tonight, Sage has been teaching me to dance. Something I hadn't considered.If any of the benefactors ask to dance, I need to. It's also said that both Kellan and Darius will dance with us all at least once tonight. While also spending at least fifteen minutes with us to speak to the benefactors.We have a list of the people coming. Now, the other ladies are planning it, so they talk to the bigger ones when the King is with them. The issue with that? What happens if that benefactor is busy at that moment? So I won't. My plan is to go to the one that is free. I'm not set on focusing on the more significant payers first like many.So, regardless of who is with me, I'm not planning to have Darius at my side for the high-payers. It isn't just benefactors

Luna Battle: The Game Settled
Asher POVI look down at Katla. She's only a few days old. After speaking with Zyra, she decided that the space in the mountains would be a retreat—a place for us to escape to, somewhere Katla could get used to what it is like to live in the Dragon Kingdom.We have spent a few days there, but not many. Apparently, she wants to be in the palace close to the others. Part of me feels like that's because they were her support while I was hiding away.It's shown her what having a family around can do. We're close, minus Aurelia. She seems to be thriving with the Bears and keeping her distance. Other than returning that day when I was going crazy and needed help, she rarely came back. We've adjusted and got used to that, however.She wants her life away from here; she wants her own life, not one that is connected to us. She should have that if she wants it."Hey."Turning, I see Elijah walk to me.He laughs slightly and takes Katla from my arms. "You look exhausted; fun night?"It's only 4
Luna Battle: The Game Fixing Things
Asher POVI walk out of the room and go to where I know they will be. As I step into the office, they turn to face me.Darius shakes his head. "You should be with Zyra.""I was, but considering this is brought on by the Dragons, I should be helping." I walk further in and look at the papers."Nothing to help with," my dad shrugs. "His son is clean, Seraphine can tell. Things were explained to him. He had no idea about the arranged marriage and, to be honest, was shocked, as he apparently had a mate."So the son won't be an issue. Is that what he's saying?"Look, both Eliphas and Durnalin are in the cells, away from each other. The son has gone. Apparently, he has a whole life with his mate. His dad told him the dragons had requested their presence at events." Darius explains.It makes no sense, though. "Why? Why would the dragons want the warlocks there?" How didn't his son question it?"Apparently, because Eliphas and his son are the strongest warlocks, they invited them to make a un
Luna Battle: The Game The Answers
Asher POVI wait and watch."Prince Asher, soon to be King, tell me something." He walks to the bars and leans against them. "Where do Warlocks belong?"My head tilts; they belong wherever they want to. I don't understand his question."See, there is no answer as we don't belong anywhere. There is the werewolf kingdom, fae, dragons and everything else. Witches and warlocks are forced to live in one of those kingdoms, with no real power."So this was all about getting power? My body is pushed back, and my eyes widen as I see King Drakon reach through the bars—his hand clamps around Eliphas' neck.I guess he's fixed, and his curse is gone. My dad and Darius drag him away, and I watch Eliphas drop to the floor, clutching his neck. The blood runs down from where King Drakon's nails dug in."We need answers; killing him won't get them." My dad turns and faces Eliphas."Apparently, this was all for power." Which still makes no sense."It wasn't just for power. We wanted our own kingdom, our
Luna Battle: The Game Baby Event
Asher POVI'm anxious. It's been two days since the curse was lifted, and I'm glad to be back to normal. All that is at risk, though. Tonight, I have to be close to whoever is pretending to be King Drakon. That then risks it happening again, and if it does, will it start slow again or begin where it was removed?I've noticed Elijah, Storm, and Aurelia are quiet. Whatever was done has worn them out, which I didn't want."Are you ready?" Zyra hugs me, and I nod. I'm not. We need answers and to figure out who it is."Be careful, okay?" I don't like that I'm not going to be there."It's you who needs to be careful. You will be in a confined space with him. If anything goes wrong." She looks at me worriedly.Wrapping my arms around her, I smile. "I'll be fine; once he's in the cell, he can't do anything." I kissed her and gave her a final hug before walking away.Getting to the cells, I sit in one and wait. I'm hoping the plan works. If we can get him in the cell, then his magic and power
Luna Battle: The Game Explaining
Asher POVI can see Zyra is struggling, and I don’t blame her either. She just found out her brother is missing.“Look, when Seraphine checked trying to find out the issue with him, she saw King Drakon, but it wasn’t him. Whoever it was is who we believe Cursed Asher.” My mum grasps her hands and smiles. “We’ve got people tracking down where your brother really is. There’s a reason for this, and it’s you, Zyra. Seraphine could sense the curses were put on Asher and Elijah to try and push you to return home.”Zyra looks around the room and seems increasingly worried. “What about Ryker? Is he okay? Does he know?” She waits, and I don’t know the answer to that.“I’m sorry, we don’t know. You need to stay here, Zyra. We have a plan, and we’re hoping Seraphine can uncover more when the person comes here.”She nods and sits, looking lost.“We are expecting Seraphine to return late tonight or early tomorrow. If they can’t fix the issue, then we will keep working to.” My mum smiles and hugs h
Luna Battle: The Game Time
Asher POVAfter about an hour of sitting in the cell with Zyra, I ordered her to leave. I wanted to spend time with her, but she shouldn't have been sitting in the cells with me.So, I've been alone for hours, waiting to find out their plan. They hadn't thought this through. I need to leave the cell to go to the room. As soon as I step out of this cell, it will come back. Then what?I'm willing to agree to anything right now if it gets me out of this cell and back with Zyra. The footsteps have me standing, and I watch my dad and Darius walk towards me."What's your plan? How am I to do this?" They haven't thought it through."You need to shift." Darius looks at me.I laugh at him. Is that some kind of joke? "You want me to shift, so that what? I can kill people easier?"My dad sighs and steps forward. "Please do as you're told. You won't understand why we're saying you can shift, but shift. Into your wolf, not dragon."Of course, I won't understand; they haven't explained it to me. If
Luna Battle: The Game Planning
Elijah POVI sit in the office; Seraphine has left. She's meeting her family halfway in the hopes they have something that can help. Merfolk are powerful creatures with extraordinary abilities.Curses and such are something they specialise in."We're going to request that King Drakon attend a celebration for Zyra's pregnancy. It means we can get what we need and figure out who it is and what their aim is." My dad looks at me, and he makes it sound so simple. This isn't simple."He's going to ask why Asher isn't present, then what?" We can't lie and hide him. "It will look suspicious.""Not if Zyra invites him, she won't know, remember. She can invite him, and whoever is portraying King Drakon won't suspect anything. We're going to be honest and explain something is wrong with Asher, and he's not well."So we're not hiding the issue."He could be in the cell for weeks, so we've had things moved down there for him. The plan is later to test how he is with someone in the cell with him. T
Luna Battle: The Game The Answers
Asher POVI watch as Elijah glares at everyone and backs up more."Elijah, we need to know." My mum steps towards him."I saw him once, just once! You all need to focus on Asher, not me! He's the one that is cursed, not me!" He shouts and steps back. He backs into my dad, and he grabs Elijah as Seraphine steps forward and grips his head.His screams echo around the cells, and it's all over just as quickly as it starts. His body falls to the floor, and he cradles his head."Well?" Darius looks at Seraphine."You're going to need a warlock, or I'll need to contact my family and see if they have something to clear the curses." Her words make me look towards Elijah. So, he is also cursed."Asher's curse is to make him push everyone out and make him think he has a mad wolf so that Zyra leaves. Elijah's was to hate Asher, likely to intensify it." Seraphine smiles slightly. "There's no mate, Elijah. The curse is what's stopping us from having a baby. There's no third mate." Her words have hi
Luna Battle: The Game The Truth
Asher POVNo one speaks, likely because they know what I said is the truth. I need to die; there is nothing they can do to change that."Explain the process, what happened, how it started, when it happens." Darius pulls a chair over and sits outside the cell.I laugh. "Why do I need to talk? Why do I need to explain? You're proving you believe me by keeping me locked in here and being too afraid to come near your own son."Nothing I say can change that."Asher, I'm not opening the cell because I don't trust you to try and run. So explain it to me, tell me how it's progressed, and let's be sure that is what is happening." He waits, and I watch my mum, Elijah, and dad sit with him."It began with whispers. The words were barely audible, but I heard whispers in my ear. They got louder and began to sound like words. Whispers were one thing, but then I began to see people dead and my wolf above them." It was a warning to me to hide, to push them away, and not let them close to me."When do
