Moonlit Monarch: A Duology Chapter 19
DAY 5; REALM OF THE GODS (ALYNTHI) “She killed him without thinking twice.” Fitia commented as she looked into a flowing river. She often mated souls here.“She’s stronger than you think.” Aspro said, and she spun to look at him. “Lift that curse, Fitia.”“Why should I do that? Her kind disobeyed me and they must pay.”“Do you realize how stupid you sound? Valeria wasn’t even born when that she-wolf disobeyed you. Why must she suffer for a crime she didn’t commit?”“I don’t care if she wasn’t the one. They must all die.”Aspro stared at her incredulously. In all his years, he never thought he would hear Fitia speak unreasonably. It just wasn’t like her to act in such a manner.“You aren’t even mad at them, are you?”“What?”“Don’t play dumb, Fitia. It doesn’t suit you.” He took a step towards her, “You are mad at Ophelia for disobeying you and you’re taking out that anger on innocent people.”“I am not.”“Yes, you are.”Fitia’s raised her hand midair to stop Aspro from say

THIRD PERSON’S POINT OF VIEW Immediately Azura relayed the goddess’ message, everyone in the pack was alerted. They had to prepare everything like they did during the Aima Fengari. In a moonlit forest clearing, a circular altar was prepared with care. Moonlight filtered through the leaves, illuminating the space with an ethereal glow. A smooth stone formed its foundation, symbolizing the earth's strength, and silver fabric cascaded around it like moonbeams.A silver censer emitted fragrant incense, inviting calmness. Glistening crystals represented celestial bodies, sparkling like a miniature galaxy. A small bowl of shimmering water mirrored the moon's radiance, symbolizing its connection to tides and emotions.Candles encircled the altar, their flames casting a warm glow, representing different moon phases. Fragrant herbs adorned the edges, purifying the space. The altar stood as a conduit between earth and sky, ready for the moon ritual to begin.Once everything was set, they all g

It had been exactly two years since I became queen of the werewolf kingdom and my beta, gamma, and alphas had all advised me to get a husband. A chosen mate. But they didn’t know it wasn’t easy for me. Choosing a mate on my own wasn’t as easy as they made it out to be. I had to be careful. If I chose the wrong one, I’d be stuck with him for the rest of my life. Tonight, they held a ball to help me find a suitable man to make my mate and husband. I was a nervous wreck to put it lightly. As Melody worked magic on my face, I sat still, worried. She didn’t seem to notice as she continuously applied powder to my face. “I’m so glad you agreed to this.” She coated my lips red. “We can finally get you a mate.” “I don’t want a mate, yet,” I told her. She paused. “You’re not getting younger, V. You need to get a mate and have pups with him. You need someone to take over from you like you did your father.” “I’m not ready to be a mother, Mel.” My eyes trailed down to her stomach. She was carr

“Mavros is here?” I scanned the sea of faces for him, even though I wasn’t entirely sure I’d recognize him. After the goddess freed us from the curse, I forgot what they looked like. It was as if the memory of the dream I had was erased completely.“He is the reason I forgot about the drinks. He said he wants to see you.”I paled. Mavros was the reason I murdered my mate, he was the reason I lost my brother. Did he want to kill me now? He definitely wanted to end my family bloodline.“What does he want from me?” I fidgeted with my dress. “Does he want to kill me, too?”“No,” Aspro rushed out. “My brother is over that killing thing, I guess. He only killed because Fitia asked him to. My brother was only carrying out the goddess’ orders. He won’t kill you. Besides,” he held my hand. “I’m here. I won’t let anything happen to you.”Honestly, I did not know why Aspro cared so much about me, but I liked it.“There you are,” Maya. “I’ve been looking everywhere for you.”Maya was the only Rom

By the end of the ball, Maya, Logan, Melody and Carter were pissed at me. The four of them were in my room, arms crossed, and tapping their feet to a rhythm. It was as if they choreographed how they were going to stand before coming in.“Are you just going to keep staring at me?” I asked, scrolling through my phone.“What happened tonight, V?” Maya voiced out her thought.I lifted my eyes from my phone and to her face. “What do you mean?”“Don’t fucking play dumb with me.” She pointed a finger at me. “You,” she said, “Who was that man? Your boyfriend we don’t know of?”“Whoa.” I dropped my phone on the bed. “Easy there, miss. Caelum is not my boyfriend. Just a friend.”“What about the other guy?” Carter questioned.“What guy?”I hoped they were talking about Leonardo and not Mavros. Darn, thinking about Leonardo made my blood boil. Power greedy dick.“The one you went into your room with.”Maya and Melody gasped. I was fucked. I didn’t think anyone would be upstairs becaus

If there was one thing I enjoyed after becoming queen was me not having to bother about fights or humans attacking us. The goddess promised there would be nothing like that for years to come. What I had to worry about was dealing with Mavros.“Hey, Val.” He sat on my desk. I was working on approving the files of rogues who wanted to move into the royal pack and he wouldn’t let me be.“What?” I didn’t meet his eyes.“You seem to be in a grim mood.” He observed.I rolled my eyes. “And the discovery of the year goes to Mavros.” I was sarcastic.“Hilarious.” He snatched the papers I was working on and skimmed through them. “Pack approval? Can’t your Beta do it?”“I like doing this myself. Give me the papers now.”His eyes glowed for a second, and when he handed me the papers, they were signed. Some had been approved of while he left the ones I was going to deny unsigned.“You’re done, aren’t you?” He asked. When I didn’t respond, he continued. “Now that you’re done, I say we g

“Valeria, are we still besties?” Mel questioned, throwing on a brown tee shirt.I came to her room after getting ready for the pack run. I was in black sweatpants and a white tank top. Right now, I wished I hadn’t come into her room in the first place since she was making me answer questions.“Yes, Mel. We are and always will be besties.” I answered.“Then why don’t we share stuff? You no longer tell me anything.”“Of course I do.”“No, you don’t.” She argued. “I don’t even know you anymore.”I hated pregnant Melody. She got emotional easily and threw temper tantrums. The Melody I knew seven months ago wasn’t like this. Pregnancy was changing her and, in my opinion, for the worse.“What have I not told you?” I asked, knowing fully well I’d regret it.“Everything.” She threw her hands up.“You’re exaggerating.”She glared at me. “I’m exaggerating?”“Sorry.”She pulled her hair up into a ponytail. “I forgive you. Now spill the beans, Val. Tell me the truth. Who is that man? Tyrion? Who i

It’s been an entire week since Aspro left. I hadn’t seen him since then. Just his annoyingly hot brother who always got on my nerves. Speaking of annoying, Mavros had come to see me again, even though I asked him to stop coming over every day because he was making my family think something was going on between us. Him having a wolf as huge as mine doesn’t help because Logan told me he would ask if he was of Alpha blood because no one knew of any Alpha with a son named Tyrion. “Oh, hey Tyrion.” Maya greeted, walking into the living room.We had said nothing to each other since he came here ten minutes ago. I was mad at him for coming today. I didn’t want people to misunderstand my relationship with him. Having my sister on my neck wasn’t something I wanted.“Good morning, princess.” He got to his feet and bowed.“Come on,” she waved her hand. “No need for the formalities since we’re going to become family soon.”I froze.Family? What family? Whose family?“We’re going to be family?”

THIRD PERSON'S POINT OF VIEW After Lucien had run away from Valeria, he found himself wandering back to the vampire kingdom, a place shrouded in mystery and grandeur. The kingdom was hidden from the mortal world, concealed within the depths of a dense, enchanted forest. Tall, ancient trees with gnarled branches loomed over the entrance, serving as the guardians of their world.As he stepped inside, the atmosphere changed instantly. The air was tinged with an otherworldly energy, and a soft, bluish hue cast an ethereal glow over the surroundings. The architecture of the kingdom was a mesmerizing blend of Gothic elegance and supernatural magnificence. Elaborate spires and towering castles adorned the landscape, seemingly carved out of dark obsidian and adorned with intricate carvings that depicted the history of their kind.The people of the vampire kingdom were a graceful race. They possessed an ageless beauty, with pale, flawless skin and striking, hypnotic eyes that ranged from deep

I wanted to stop hating him. I wanted to stop pushing him away and let him be the father he wanted to be to me, yet I couldn't get myself to do it. How could you turn his back on me for more than twenty years and suddenly show up out of thin air and save me from whatever was in that realm? Whatever was that necklace? I knew I needed to ask someone about the necklace and its powers and there were only two people who came to mind. Lucien and Aspro. I couldn't ask father about it because he would clearly know something happened and I couldn't risk anyone finding out about what happened between me and Lucien. I'd worked so hard to get to where I am now. But our meeting would have to wait until it was sundown. Lucien being a vampire meant I would be unable to see him unless the sun was down. I took the opportunity to go around the pack and see if anything needed my attention. I arrived at one of the pack houses, a three story building that looked a bit ancient. Beautifully ancient, tho

As I lay in a deep sleep, I found myself in a vivid dream, walking through a dark and mysterious room. There were sounds of a waterfall; a peaceful sound to my troubled soul. In the distance, I caught sight of Lucien, but what caught my eyes was the necklace around his neck. I found myself moving closer to him, reaching out to him for some reason. With each step I took forward, the necklace glowed brightly as though repulsed by me. "Lucien," I heard myself say, allowing my hand fall to my side. He simply shook his head, lifted his hands to his neck and unclasped the necklace. It fell to the ground and shattered into a million pieces. I lifted my head from the mess to his face and before my eyes, he began to disappear."Lucien?" I ran forward to get a hold of him, but I was too late. He'd completely disappeared before I could get to him.What exactly was that?Confused, I got down on my knees and picked up the pieces of the teal necklace. Although odd, I found myself forgetting about

My birthday ended with me sitting in my balcony with my head in my hands. Jean’s words struck me hard. How could she say such a thing to me? I didn’t get it. Was she possessed by the devil when she said those things to me? “Do I have to be like you for you to be happy? Loveless? Without a father?” I wasn’t without a father. I had a father. Only he didn’t want me. He did not even bother to show up for my birthday. My hands found the necklace clasp and I undid it before holding it in midair. I couldn’t stop the resentment and disappointment that rapidly grew the more I stared at the necklace. “I hate you.” Before I could change my mind, I tossed the necklace off the balcony and went into my room. I plopped on my bed and began taking off my shoes. It hurt too much. How girls coped with this was truly beyond me. A sigh of relief escaped me when I wiggled my free toes. A refreshing moment after a long day. My mind went back to the moment Blade asked Jean to get on her knees and apologi

“It is good to finally see you.” He was just as I remembered. Tall, well built, alluring black eyes and hair. He wore a simple shirt and buttoned it up fully to support the elegant tie he’s wearing. On top of the shirt was a stylish belt with a narrow V-line. His double breasted jacket was a solid color with patterns which radiated finesse. His pants match his suit jacket and are a perfect fit for his shoes. An elegant pair of brogue monkstraps. This man was still the same. I couldn’t let him know I knew who he was or how I met him. “Do I know you?” “Oh, no. My name is Lucien. Lucien Dracmon.” It had been four years since I made him drown in the waters of loss. It was the reason he did not remember me. My eyes moved to his neck. He had that darn teal necklace on him. I could feel its presence. It probably was the reason I was feeling some kind of way. I held my hand out for a handshake. “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Lucien.” When he shook hands with me, I quickly pulled away with

After my conversation with Leah, I could not find it in me to sleep. I refused to believe she said those things to me and even called me by my name as though we were friends or even family. How dare she? The more I thought about it, the more annoyed I got. Who did she think she was? A mere maid spoke to me in such a manner. What was this world turning into? “Why? It’s not as if you’re going to marry him one day. Someone else has to.” Was she in love with Blade? No. It couldn’t be. She just got here. “Damn it!” I yanked the sheets off myself. “That crazy, little bitch who doesn’t know her place.” I clenched my fists. “Oh, I wish I could just strangle life out of her and make her beg for mercy.” No, no. That goes against angel rules. I cannot kill someone unless I have enough proof that they’re awful. I threw my hands into the air, frustrated. “Can’t I kill this one?” A glowing piece of paper appeared in my room—the set of rules angels were to follow. The number one rule was to ne

The past five days were stressful for various reasons. One being that Leah always somehow found a way to be around my brother and he always let her. Could he not see what I was seeing? Secondly, Dimitri and Jean kept ignoring each other and pretending the other was invincible. I could see how hard it was for them to be like that with each other, yet they continued. The third reason for my stress was my birthday that would take place tomorrow. I was not someone to bother about my birthday, but I couldn’t stop myself from worrying because Esme Von Stein would be attending. Things could get bad between herself, Jean and Dimitri. The fourth reason was because father would not change his mind about Blade leaving after my birthday. I was yet to come up with a way to convince him to let Blade stay home with us. So, you see, this past few days were tiring. A lot of things had to be taken care of. I couldn’t tell mother about it or she’d become worried. She already had a lot on her plate an

We sat in the dining room with everyone in the family save for Aunt Ared and Uncle Logan. They had traveled yesterday for an important meeting on behalf of my mother. Though they were absent, Aunt Melody and Uncle Carter were present but I could sense they wished they weren’t here because of Blade’s accusing stare. “Here’s the thing, son.” Father began, pouring himself a glass of juice. “We wanted to see you, but your teachers insisted we stayed back. They said it’d make you want to learn quickly so that you’d come home. We had no choice. We wanted the best for you, so we hearkened to their advice.” “And you want me to go back after Caidyn’s birthday?” Mother responded. “Yes.” Blade dropped his spoon. “No.” Father’s left eyebrow rose. “No?” “I believe I said that. I won’t go back there. Not now, not ever.” “You have to stay there until you can completely control your abilities. It’s for your own good.” “I am twenty years old, dad. I know what is good for me and going back there

Fluffy white wings stretched out of my back and cast a shadow over me, covering me as though they were shields. That wasn’t the problem, though. At the bottom of my wings, there was fire that did not appear to cause me or my cloth any harm. It just burned. In the middle of my head was a crescent moon that glowed. “They are burning,” I heard someone say. “How are they white if she is the demigod of Night and shadows?” Another asked. “Perhaps it’s a demigod thing.” The murmurs died down when Medros lifted a fisted hand. “Caidyn Romero, angel of Night and shadows, please return to your home in the mortal realm. It has been done.” Despite my surprise and confusion, I bowed deeply before opening a portal to the mortal realm and going into it. The living room was where the portal led to. Mother sat there, hand under her chin as she stared into space. Jean and Dimitri sat on separate couches, both avoiding the other because of Dimitri’s discovery. Jean’s sister, Yvonne; a feisty eighte
