My Dethroned Luna Chapter 13
The message haunted me. The words echoed in my mind: "Our hero saved you from my men, but the next one you’re not going to escape it, I assure you, you won’t be saved by anyone."Who could have done this to me? And who was the hero that saved me? These questions were continually running in my mind and distracting me from my work. I stayed at work at my desk and the usual productivity and noise of the office surrounded me, while inside, I was alone in my worry and despair. Tightly biting my lip, I tried to read the message again, but the light of the computer made me blink.I have actually shared the screenshot with Rita but that was of no consolation as the feeling of the inner worm gnawing at my guts would not go away. My thoughts went through the list of possible culprits. Maybe it was someone from the industry, who saw me do well and they had jealousy in their heart. For years, I had created some influential rivals who did not like my position in the fashion industry.I had been v
My Dethroned Luna Chapter 14
I noticed that Owen was very quiet during the time we were heading to school. The regular bubbling with stories of dinosaurs and space adventures was replaced by a silence that looked far too profound for a three-year-old boy.I looked back at him in the rearview mirror, he was attached to the window, his tiny face as blank as the landscape outside seemed to be to him. There was an obvious worry in his mind and I for one felt sad to see him in that state. “What’s up buddy, what's going on in that little head of yours?” I pretended to be excited just to encourage him to open up to me. Owen looked at me, and those large blue beautiful eyes he had were teary and it broke my heart to see it.“It’s nothing, Mother,” he whispered, but I knew there was more than that. “Would you like to speak to your friends today?” I asked him expecting him to open up and tell me something. He shrugged, and I felt my despair deepening. Owen loved school. He loved his friends and his teacher, Ms. Maureen

Moonlight Pack Hannah's POV "Don't touch me, and go wash those dirty hands." I heard my son, Jasper, yelling at Dina, one of the pack maids who was trying to help him with his breakfast. "You don't speak like that to your elders, Son," Landen said, trying to caution him. "Oh, please, Father, she's just my maid." Jasper's response made me laugh out loud from where I stood. I had taught him well. Jasper must always know he is superior to everyone in this pack, except for me and Landen. "What do you mean, Son? Do you realize the maids and guards are also people like us?" Landen tried again, his tone firm but weary. "They were only born into the wrong families," Landen said, looking down at his three-year-old son while he worked on his breakfast. "Yes, we were born to rule; they were born to serve us and bow to us, Father," he responded, putting a little cake in his mouth elegantly, just as he had been taught. "You..." "That's correct, my darling. They were born to s

HANNAH’S POVThe sun’s golden warmth warmed the Moonlight Pack’s extensive mansion, its beams filtering through lengthy windows and revealing dust motes twirling in the air. I was standing at the threshold of Annabeth’s previous room where the door made a creaking sound as it opened.This room was like a museum of the past, untouched and maintained in such a way that sent cold shivers down my spine. It felt like her spirit remained here haunting my entire life as well as all corners of this house.“Get rid of everything,” I ordered the maids keeping my voice indifferent and authoritarian. “I want this room cleared out completely.”The maids Dina and Lila looked at each other hesitantly before finally nodding their heads to show that they agreed to do what I had asked them to. They went about it gingerly, almost fearful of disturbing those memories that were imprinted on these walls.When they began putting away Annabeth’s clothes, trinkets, and personal belongings acquired over time,

Hannah's POVWith all of Annabeth's stuff packed up into boxes and ready to be carried off and stashed somewhere out of sight, I stood in the now-cleared room. The brief sense of fulfillment I had was swiftly succeeded by the empty sting of realizing that Landen's heart remained bound to the past in spite of my best attempts.In an attempt to center myself, I inhaled deeply. The sun was nearly sinking, creating lengthy shadows on the floor as it streamed through the windows. It was almost nightfall.The maids had just completed cleaning, and their tense looks at me reminded me of the stress that had been in the home ever since Landen lost his cool.The door to the room opened as I was ready to go, and Landen stepped in. His expression was unreadable, a mixture of determination and something else I couldn't quite place. I straightened, preparing myself for another confrontation."Hannah," he said, his voice surprisingly calm. "We need to talk."I crossed my arms, my eyes narrowing slig

Hannah's POVThe cityscape of Shadow Pack loomed ahead as we touched down, its sprawling skyline a mix of glass and steel. I felt a rush of determination, ready to prove my worth as Luna and help Landen secure this crucial deal for the Moonlight Pack. However, the excitement was short-lived.Jasper had been unusually quiet during the flight, his normally vibrant energy subdued. As soon as we stepped off the plane, he clung to me, his little face pale and clammy. My heart pounded with worry."Landen, something's wrong with Jasper," I said, my voice tinged with panic.Landen turned, his eyes widening as he saw our son. Without a word, he scooped Jasper up and we hurried to the waiting car. The driver sped through the city streets, weaving through traffic with urgency.We arrived at the hospital within minutes. The medical staff acted swiftly, ushering us into an examination room. I had a hard time even swallowing while I stood there, my hands shaking watching them do something to Jasper
My Dethroned Luna Chapter 19
Landen's POVI left Hannah and Jasper in the ward and sprinted through the corridors of the hospital, my mind filled with fear and confusion. How could my son Jasper have been exposed to the poison called wolfbane? It was a dangerous substance, endangering our home. I needed answers, and quickly too.As I turned a corner, almost ran into a small boy who had been playing with a ball along the hallway. He appeared to be about six or seven years old with black hair and keen, questioning eyes. Wearing the uniform that distinguished his school life he must just have come from school.“Hey there! Be careful,” I said suddenly stopping.“I am sorry sir”, said the boy peering up at me sheepishly. “I didn’t see you.”“It is not your fault,” I answered with a smile twitching at my lips’ corners. “Where are your parents?”“My Daddy is one of the doctors here.” The boy spoke proudly of himself.“My mum will soon arrive to pick me up.”"Your Daddy's a doctor?" I repeated, my curiosity piqued. "What

Anna's POVThe meeting went on and on, every minute dragged like a rabbit in the evening. I glanced at my phone anxiously counting every second till I could leave.Owen wanted to see me at Navian's hospital but there was still this uncomfortable feeling in my stomach.“Anna, are you with us?” my business partner Jessica asked bringing me back into reality.“No, sorry,” I said trying hard to keep my grin apart from myself."I just have a family matter to attend to. Can we wrap this up soon?"Jessica nodded sympathetically. "Of course, we'll make it quick."Finally, the meeting concluded, and I rushed out, dialing Navian as I made my way to the parking lot."Hey, Anna," Navian answered, his voice filled with concern. "Everything okay?""I'm on my way to pick up Owen," I said, my voice tense. "I'm sorry for being late. The meeting took longer than expected.""No problem," Navian replied. "Owen is doing great. He's been playing with some of the nurses. Drive safely.""Thanks, Navian. I'll
