Staring at the bedroom, I didn't see much difference between it and my original bedroom. Okay, that was a lie, as this bedroom was much fancier, but otherwise it was still the same thing. I couldn't see why Maverick offered this bedroom.
As if reading my thoughts, he gently tugged on my arm to follow him. He led me to a set of doors that I assumed led to the closet. However, when he opened them, I saw that it led directly into another bedroom.
"These bedrooms are connected to each other. It'll give us better access to each other and you the privacy you require," he explained as I stared in awe at what I saw.
Shaking myself out of my stupor, I asked, "How come the Grand Duke and the Grand Duchess never used these rooms?"
"They never saw the need to.

Willow Baker POVWe walked in silence, passing the servants who were taking care of the garden. They acknowledged our presence or rather, Maverick's presence. Normally, they just ignored me or gave me a brief nod of acknowledgement, not like the deep bows they were giving to us now.'That's because that's not how they're supposed to be treating you. You're the Grand Duchess. They're supposed to treat you with respect.'I didn't agree. If they were comparing me to the previous Grand Duchess, I could see why they wouldn't want to acknowledge me. I would have a hard time too if I were in their place, especially with what I knew.'Ugh. That isn't the point.'Ignoring Winter's rambling, I studied Maverick

Maverick Peterson POV'Well, it could have been worse.''How could it possibly be worse?''She could have walked right out after you mentioned that yourmother liked the garden.'It has been a spur of the moment kind of deal when I invited her to join me in the garden. I wanted to deepen our relationship, and women liked flowers, so I thought this would be a good opportunity.Instead, it felt like the distance between us might have grown a bit. Not a lot, but enough to make a di

Willow Baker POVSeveral Days Later"How are things between you and Maverick?" Diana asked.Unlike how I would normally react when she suddenly asked me an unexpected question, I calmly said, "We're fine."Of course, I didn't mention the new sleeping arrangements. Either she already knew about them or no one thought to inform her, and I would rather not be the one to enlighten her any time soon."That's good," she said as she stared at her teacup.I still couldn't get used to this new Diana. There were times where I wondered if this was really Diana or if she was sick. Well, I trusted that Jason had a handle on that and didn't bring it up."I heard you're going to give birth soon," I said to start up the conversation again.When the servants thought I wasn't listening, I heard them talking about how they were excited for the baby to be bo

Willow Baker POVGoing over what Diana had told me, I still couldn't decide whether or not I should go through with what she said. I couldn't stop thinking that it would be a huge mistake to fire everyone who spoke ill of me.'No, it isn't.'I frowned as I pulled the covers up to my neck. These thoughts were distracting me from going to sleep as my mind refused to quiet down. It was thinking hard about what I should do, refusing to give me any peace and quiet.At least this time I had Asa to keep me company. She was still in her crib, but she was busy with her stuffed animal at the moment. Her face was buried into its soft fur as I kept a close eye on her to make sure she didn't accidentally suffocate herself.Sitting up, I snatched

Willow Baker POVWhen Maverick said he would look into it, he really meant it. The next day, he was already up and at it, looking into this problem with several others, before I even woke up and got out of bed.While it was good that he was taking it so seriously, it was also quite frightening how he could get up so early in the morning with no difficulty. Of course, I had gotten up early before under Rose's employment, but I prefer being able to get up late when I felt like it.There was something freeing about being able to decide when I could go to bed and when I could get up. Of course, in the beginning I had still been used to my old schedule, so I couldn't take advantage of this freedom until much more recently.I couldn't focus on my work as Asa's absence nagged at me. Maverick had taken Asa

Willow Baker POVI didn't hesitate to say, "They were hoping that there was something wrong with Asa, so you'll kick us both out."The moment those words escaped my lips, he froze. I couldn't tell what he was thinking since nothing in his expression had changed, but something obviously had. It was enough to snap me out of my haze.Feeling cowed, I remained still as if I was prey encountering a dangerous predator. Considering who it was I was talking about, it was a very apt description. Even if I was rightfully upset, I did try to beat up a servant.In a situation like this, I should have just gone with Diana's suggestion to simply fire them, no matter how angry I was. I couldn't believe I let my anger get the best of me. This wasn't normally like me.Whatever the

Maverick Peterson POVShe was doing it again. Acting like it was her fault that things turned out this way when it clearly wasn't her fault. She couldn't force people to treat her with respect. That would require her to have demon blood.Even in the case she did have demon blood, using the ability would only further ostracize her and expose her to more ridicule. Everyone would want to avoid her or get rid of her as soon as possible.'You know that's not true. As the Grand Duchess, she does have the power to make them stop.''She can order them to respect her, but that doesn't necessarily mean they will."'Fair enough.'It wasn't that

Willow Baker POVI should have known he was going to watch me handle the servants. It wasn't like he could leave me alone when I had clearly done a poor job running the household. He was probably going to make sure I didn't mess up further.The thought of him watching as I punished the servants sent chills down my spine. There was no way I was going to be able to do it with him there. I would be too distracted by his presence to say what I needed to say. This was the worst.'You're making it worse than it actually is. It'll be fine.''How's it going to be fine? If I mess up, he's going to be furious.''Oh, boy. Here we go again. I'm grabbing Shadow for this.'

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."

Willow Baker POVSeveral Days LaterLeaning back in my chair, I watched with a smile as Maverick played with Asa, who giggled loudly. 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.'
