Maverick Peterson POV

Several Minutes Earlier

As the border came into view, I scowled at the sight of the group that lingered. After the stunt she had pulled during the celebration, I had thought I had made it clear that she shouldn't ever show her face ever again.

"What do you think you're doing? Explain yourself," Timothy ordered as he placed a hand on his sword, ready to draw it.

The woman crossed her arms as she said, "I don't see why we need to explain ourselves. Patroling our borders is natural. It's not like we are crossing the border."

If I recalled correctly, her name was Rose, and she was the woman who had killed Willow in her previous thought. The idea that Willow died before we could meet again made my blood boil.

'She must have something up her sleeve if she can be so confident in facing you. Either she has something on you that she thinks she can use as blackmail, or she has a strong supporter.'

    This wasn't supposed to happen. Rose has been promised that if she went along with that stranger's plan, she would be able to get back at her slave and that arrogant bastard that calls himself the Grand Duke.It was simple. Go to the border and get his attention. Once he showed up, she would reveal what she had learned to aggravate him. Then the filthy angel blood that had been left by the man would use magic on him when his guard was done.If everything went as planned, she would be able to get revenge on them for making a mockery of her. It was perfect. However, she was currently running for her life from the crazed demon bastard in front of her."Stay away!" she screamed as she threw the men she had brought at him.He didn't even flinch as he brutally butchered them without stopping like the monster he was. At this rate, if she didn't get away, she would really be killed and die an ugly death.She sorely regretted not bringing her bow and arrows or some other weapon to defend herse

    Willow Baker POVSeveral Weeks Later"Ugh. My head," I said as I regained consciousness and placed a hand on my head."Willow!" several people shouted, making my head ring."Please keep it down," I said as I remained lying down."Sorry," Sheila whispered as she knelt by my side. "Are you okay?""My head is still ringing. What happened after I blacked out?" I asked as I put my hand down and looked at her.The look on her face made me wonder how bad things were. I could imagine that they had called for a doctor to check my condition, but I didn't see the doctor anywhere. He must have already left."Why don't you tell us why you had a nosebleed and fainted?" Maverick's mother asked.I didn't miss how they avoided the topic, but there was something more important to worry about. Abruptly, I sat up as I recalled that something had happened to Maverick, causing a backlash."Something's wrong with Maverick," I declared. Before anyone could question how I knew this, I added, "Winter confirmed

    Willow Baker POVAs expected, she didn't answer me. It would have been stranger if she did, especially since she had made it clear that our correspondence had been a one time deal. If it had worked, then that would have meant she had lied.Since this was the Moon Goddess we were talking about, there was no way that would be the case. However, it left me with no one else to turn to. The others obviously had plenty of time to think about what to do.If they couldn't come up with anything, what hope could I possibly have to solve this conundrum?The inevitable result was that we waited as days passed for something to happen to change the tide or at least give us an opportunity. The chance soon came in the unexpected form of the Grand Duchess of Higsnesia, Virginia Richardson.Everyone stared at the woman as she took her place on the couch. When someone came knocking on the door, none of us expected it to be her, of all people. Of course, we couldn't exactly reject her.However, the mount

    Willow Baker POVAs soon as those words left my mouth, I sorely regretted it. This wasn't part of the plan. In fact, there was no plan whatsoever other than doing nothing and letting her leave. I didn't even know why I spoke up."Excuse me," the Grand Duchess of Higsnesia asked as I was mentally weeping at the attention.I wanted to crawl into a hole and hide. "Please disregard what I said.""No, no, I insist," she said.It was hard to tell if she was being sincere or if she was upset. I dared ask her for help. I didn't know enough about her from this one encounter to be able to judge her. It didn't help that Sheila was egging me on to speak.Seeing that they weren't going to give up, I caved in and repeated, "Can you help us?" When she didn't say anything and only waved at me to continue, I said, "You're the only one we can count on for help. If it's you, I'm certain that everything can be resolved peacefully.""You mean you want me to help prove that Lord Lesli is the one responsibl

    Willow Baker POVSeveral Days LaterAfter that revelation, no one had dared to say anything, and the Grand Duchess of Higsnesia left without a fuss with promises to speak with us again later. It had been a couple days since then as we waited patiently for her to send word.In that time, Winter finally spoke to me, though she was still groggy from whatever had happened. She was mostly asleep as she needed to recover from the ordeal. I was just glad she was okay, though I made sure not to tell her this.She would have probably made fun of me, saying I couldn't do anything without her. While I was happy to have her back, it wasn't enough for me to go through all that ridicule.At the sound of someone knocking on the door, everyone tensed. We waited with bated breath as the door opened. The Grand Duchess of Higsnesia stepped inside and greeted us with a smile."Hello everyone, I apologize for being gone so long. I hope I didn't worry anyone," she said as she took her seat."There's no nee

    Willow Baker POVA Month Later"Lord Lesli shall be left in the care of Lady Willow," the Grand Duke of Higsnesia declared in front of everyone.As I stared at the scene that was happening in front of me, I couldn't help but wonder what had just happened. Scanning the others' expressions to see if it was just me, I couldn't decipher the looks on their faces.'When she said she could handle everything, she really meant it.''Is this really happening? This isn't a dream, right?''No, it's really happening, and I for one am glad we're not enemies.''I'm not saying I'm against having everything resolved without us having to do anything, but isn't it kind of ridiculous how things moved so fast? She didn't even tell us what she did to accomplish everything.''I'm pretty sure that the Moon Goddess probably did something to push the narrative along. It's the only explanation for how things got resolved in only a month.'No kidding. After the others and I caved in to the Grand Duchess of Higsn

    Maverick Peterson POVWillow was okay. That was the only thing I could think of as I finally embraced her after what felt like years. After losing my mind and starting a war with Prerana, I had feared I would never see her ever again.It wasn't just her. I could see my parents and the others on the other side making their way towards us. Seeing that everyone was in one piece felt like a gift from the Moon Goddess."Maverick?" Willow's muffled voice reverberated against my chest.Even though I didn't want to let go, I loosened my grip so I wasn't suffocating her anymore. As she pushed away, I felt her warmth get farther away from me, leaving me wanting."Are you okay? What about Asa? Is she okay?" she asked.Hearing her ask about my condition before Asa made my heart skip a beat, but I focused on answering her question and said, "We're both good. Asa was safe in the castle, and no one was strong enough to hurt me."She looked relieved as she said, "Thank the Moon Goddess. We couldn't r

    Willow Baker POVEven though my face was calm, I was anything but calm. If the others could hear my thoughts, they would be bombarded by my screaming as I panicked over what had just happened.'Winter, what do I do?''What are you screaming about?''What do you mean? I'm talking about Maverick's confession.''You mean how he confessed he loved you? What about it?''How can you be so calm about it? He literally said to my face that he loved me.''I already knew about it.''What?''I was wondering what was taking him so long to confess. I thought the two of you would die of old age before he ever admitted his feelings.''But how?''What do you mean?''Why would he suddenly have feelings for me?''What are you talking about? He had made it obvious with his actions that he was in love with you.''I thought he loved me as a friend or the mother of his child, not as a lover or wife.''You are technically his wife.''That's not the point. The point is, I never thought this would happen.''Wo

  • Luna's Revenge: Willow Baker's Marriage Request   Author's Note

    Hello everyone. I just want to thank all my readers, especially those who have been following until the end. It's been a long journey. In fact, I believe this book, from start to finish, took almost 7 months, which is a long time. Again, I'm grateful to have all of you.Now, onto what I intend to do next. I have several ideas, but currently I hope to start on Asa Peterson's story. It's going to be about Willow and Maverick's daughter, but with a twist.Instead of being a direct sequel to Luna's Revenge: Willow Baker's Marriage Request, it follows the first life after Willow dies and basically runs almost parallel with it. As such, there might be some spoilers, but it's not required to read both books. They're both standalones.I really hope to get this story off the ground. However, I do have other stories so we'll see how everything works out.Anyway, thank you all again for reaching the end with me. I hope that you all continue following me and have a great day.

    Willow Baker POV A Year Later "Willow, are you ready?" Sheila asked as she, Maverick's mother, and Diana stepped into the room. As I stared at the woman in the mirror, I immediately said, "No." My arms shook as I said, "I really can't do this." "What's wrong?" she asked as she immediately rushed over to me. "I don't think I'm ready to get married," I said as I whirled around in my wedding dress. "Willow," Maverick's mother said as she took my hand. "You've already been part of the family for more than three years. We're only making sure you get the wedding you deserve." 'I can't believe I agreed to go along with this crazy idea. Why do we need to have a wedding when we're already husband and wife?' 'I don't have a clue either. You're the one who agreed to it when Maverick asked to marry you, and he even gave you a chance to back out.' I still had mixed feelings when I recalled that incident. It still boggled my mind that he had asked to marry me when we were already married, a

    Willow Baker POV"Yes?" I squeaked.I mean, we were married, so I wasn't sure what he was talking about. However, instead of explaining himself, he smiled brightly at me. His smile blinded me and left me in a daze as he slipped the ring onto my finger.Feeling the metal on my finger, I quickly said, "Wait. What's going on?"His smile dropped as he said, "I proposed. Did you not want to marry me?""That's not what I meant," I said as I held both my hands up. "I mean, aren't we already married?""We are, but I want us to be properly married," he said as he stood up. "All we did was sign some papers and file them to formalize our marriage. I want us to have a wedding. It doesn't have to be big. It can just be us and our families or j

    Willow Baker POVA Year LaterStaring up at the night sky, I smiled as I held Maverick's hand. I had used to be embarrassed about holding his hand, but now I found myself reaching out to him whenever I can."It's nice out," I said as we continued to walk through the garden.The only sounds were the sounds of the wind and whatever animals were out and about. Basking in the peaceful atmosphere, I still found it hard to believe a year had passed in the blink of an eye."It is," Maverick said with a smile, and he squeezed my hand."So, what is it you wanted to talk about?" I asked."What makes you think I brought you out here to have a talk?" he asked. "I could just want to spend

    Willow Baker POVReaching out to the door, I opened it and was greeted by the sight of a gaunt Lesli. The putrid smell and poor condition nearly made me vomit as I covered my nose and mouth."Ah, Willow, you finally came. I was wondering when you would come," he said as he smiled at me. His smile fell when his eyes spotted Maverick right behind me. "Oh, you're here. I didn't ask for you.""I asked him to be here," I said as I held up my arm before Maverick could raise his voice.Lesli tilted his head to one side as he asked, "Why? Did you think I would do something to you?" When I didn't bother to give him a response, he raised his bandaged and chained arms up for us to see. "I can't exactly do anything to you right now.""I'm sure you'll find a way, but that's not

    Willow Baker POVUnfortunately, the beautiful moment was ruined as a servant approached us. We stepped away from each other as Maverick frowned. They knew to leave us alone unless it was a serious matter."My apologies, your graces," the man said as he bowed. "The prisoner is acting up and demanding Willow's presence."There was only one person he could be referring to, but before I could say anything, Maverick said, "Willow will not be seeing him. I should have you punished for your insolence."The man quivered beneath Maverick's bloodlust. Asa squirmed at the sensation, but she didn't become upset like the last time she had been exposed to it. I wasn't sure whether I should be glad or upset.Reaching out to touch his shoulder, I said, "Maverick."

For once, we were together not because someone had done something to make it happen, and I was quite happy about it.Maverick finally caught Asa, who laughed even harder when he raised her up into the air. She clapped her hands as they returned back to the table where I was sitting. Asa immediately reached out to me.Standing up, I took her from him, and we both settled down to enjoy the tea and snacks that had been left out. Asa tried to reach for the cookie I had, but I kept it out of arm's reach. She was far too young to be eating them.As I nibbled on the cookie while ignoring Asa's attempts to grab it out of

It was like being surrounded by a pack of hungry wolves, ready to pounce at any moment.Maverick scanned the room before standing. "Now that everyone is here, I believe there is something we need to seriously discuss." His face hardened as he said, "You all need to stop harassing us, especially Willow." Immediately, several people looked offended by his words, but he continued on, "This has gone on long enough.""Maverick, I believe you need to watch yo

    Willow Baker POVA Few Weeks LaterAfter what had felt like centuries, I had finally kicked everyone out without being rude. I had thought that would be the end of it. Unfortunately, I had been wrong. I had been so very wrong.It seemed like a fire had been lit, causing the family to work even harder to ensure we were a proper couple. Well, at least the women were. The men had kept out of the whole exchange, and I wasn't sure how to feel about that.On one hand, it was better than having all of them gang up on me and Maverick. On the other hand, they weren't helping us and were choosing to stay on the sidelines. Rickey seemed to take particular glee at my suffering.'At least someone is enjoying themselves.'
