Obsession of the King: A Luna’s Revenge Chapter 1
Veronica’s POVEveryone in my life has betrayed me.This realization dawned on me as I felt my numbing wrists from the heavy metal cuffs they put on me, chaining me to the crusty brick wall of the packhouse’s basement prison.My vision is slowly becoming blurry from dehydration and starvation. I can barely see my scarred legs and I couldn’t remember how long I have been locked up in this dark place.Suddenly, as I was on the brink of losing my consciousness, the sound of the cell bars opening and the looming shadow of a person from the light outside woke me up.“Ah, what a sight to behold,” the moment I heard her pesky voice, rage took over my exhausted body. I clenched my fists, the nails digging deep in my palms that I am sure were bleeding. Even with my messy long hair covering my face, I felt her bending down before placing her hand fan below my chin and lifting it for me to see her unsightly face.“Oh how the high and mighty Veronica has fallen,” her mocking tone and grin made m

Veronica’s POV“For the sin of stealing the virren moonstone and attempting to kill the Five Elders by poison, here stands Veronica Crysmorra, former Vameer, and Luna of the pack to receive her divine punishment.”There was utter silence. I thought that my heart would beat fast in fear for my fate but perhaps I am too dead inside to feel any of it. Everyone was looking at me— in disdain, disappointment, anger, and many other things.I stood in the middle of the platform. There were no stars in the sky and the moon is now behind the gray clouds. I tuned out the declaration of the rest of the damnation ritual. I couldn't care less. After all, it will just end up with me getting beheaded or burned alive.Just in time, I heard the footsteps of someone coming towards me. I knew to whom it belonged. My hearing may be weakened in my state right now but I could recognize him. Colton Vameer.My Alpha. My husband. Ex-husband, given that he will now be replacing me. He stared at me for a long

Veronica’s POV“This is for the best. You will be helping the pack and repenting for your mistakes at the same time,” I avoided Jade’s attempt of caressing my face.“Quit pretending to be a good stepmother. There is no audience now,” I told her.“I just wanted to comfort you, dear,” she said and I clenched my fists so that I could ignore her existence inside this closed space.We are in a covered wagon as they escort me, still chained, towards the agreed meeting place. I was told that the exchange would be held there.All I understood was that I would be a peace offering for the treaty. Long ago, Eviera was on par with the Helios pack. But our pack experienced a decline in recent years. We fell off with the Helios pack and with the power that they accumulated now, our pack cannot stand against theirs so we remain in the shadows to avoid conflict given our ugly history. It was not clear what the exact cause of the bad blood was but we were not able to patch up with them for 20 years.

Veronica's POVWhat awaits me on the other side could be hell.I am not sure what to expect when they told me that I will be sacrificed and sent to the Helios pack for the treaty. So far, they have yet to kill me.At first, I thought that we would be treading the cold on foot. Or maybe just me, as a punishment or initiation but I was shocked to see that there was a carriage waiting once we crossed the river. They gestured for me to hop in so I did.“Do not look through the windows,” the gruff voice of one of the three representatives of the Helios clan told me. I still could not make out their faces because my eyes are really blurry now, my headache is becoming worse.I said no complaints and simply followed them. I am still gauging how they act, I don’t want to make a mistake and suddenly anger them. I am on thin ice.For a second, escaping crossed my mind but I knew that it would be too risky. I am not in my best condition and even if I manage to pull it off somehow, I wouldn’t know

Veronica's POVThe days passed by quickly in my new reality. It was the opposite of what I expected.It has been five days and I have recovered somehow. I am still pretty much a prisoner and I have not attempted to escape. I don't think I have the capacity yet. Besides, I have no concrete plan. I do not exactly have allies to lean on so my best option is to stay here for the meantime. Free food, free lounging.They are generous. I had a couple of clothes to change into and the food was good. You could tell that they are abundant in resources that even a prisoner like me gets a quality meal.I don’t really have anything to do around here all day. I can’t exactly roam around outside. So I sit on the bed every day. Stare at the ceiling. Get mad and try to sleep. Wake up to get mad again.A hobby I picked up, however, is eavesdropping. That sounded weird but I had no other entertainment. My heightened hearing came back on the third day and I used it right away.Their pack is loud with so

Veronica's POV It became a habit. The nameless man with red eyes kept visiting me every night from then on. “The mask is stupid,” I glared at him. “You are not a child playing superheroes.” He chuckled. God, I hate his chuckle. “I have to keep the mystery going y’know,” he tilted his head on his hand as he sat on the couch across from me. I don’t need to see past the mask to know the shitty grin he definitely has on. “Didn't know you were so interested in me. I am flattered.” His red eyes were playful and heavy. The weight of his stares could be felt through my bones, like he was staring at my soul yet I cannot read his mind. “Not all interest is a compliment,” I told him with a frown. It has been three days. At first, I tried interrogating him especially when he came back the night after I confronted him with a mask on. He was evasive and he was just dismissing my questions. I had no choice but to let it go. However, I have never stopped speculating who he is. Right now, I

Veronica’s POV Something shifted in the way they treat me. “Anything I request for?” I eyed him with furrowed brows. “Yes,” the pack Beta Eamon, as he finally introduced himself to me earlier, answered in a monotonous voice. “What if I will only eat boiled virgin rabbit soup from the Highlands of the South?” I asked. I bet he is a strict general in their pack because I watched how hard he fought back rolling his eyes. Tough guy. It was quite amusing. “Then we will procure you the boiled virgin rabbit soup from the Highlands of the South,” he answered with an evident grudge. I held back a snicker but grinned widely after successfully messing with him. This is my first genuine big smile since my life went down the drain. I don’t know what changed but I will not poke around a blessing and risk jinxing it. “I would very much like a big bowl of lasagna and a medium-rare ribeye steak with a tub of sundae of all possible ice cream flavors with lots of sprinkles, chocolate syrup and m

Veronica’s POV All eyes were on me. Even without my heightened hearing as a werewolf, I could feel the deafening silence and hear the way everyone held their breath once they realized my presence. There were no announcements. I have a new scent that all of them would pick up quite easily. Because I am an outsider. Because I don't belong here. I stuck out like a sore thumb. The towering figure of a man around 6’3 ft tall approached me. It took me a second before I recognized him. He had a buzzcut with his large body. His steps were heavy. Eamon, the pack’s Beta. The Alpha’s right hand man. He stopped in front of me, his back was on his pack and uttered, “Come follow me.” It almost echoed through the entire hall. That is how unsettling the silence was. I cannot pick up the smell of everyone but again, even without my lycan senses, the air is filled with too much tension. Eamon suddenly turned to face the awaiting crowd of his pack members. He was frowning and in a strict voice,

Veronica’s POV“This dagger is the best weapon that suits you.”Jadeline opened the lid of the carved wooden box to reveal a dagger with a golden hilt. It was my eleventh birthday.Father threw me a big birthday party in place of his absence, something that slowly became a staple from then on. I received presents from some pack members but I’m not really close with them. I think even the Alpha of that time, Colton’s dad, dropped by to give his present.For my young self, however, the best gift she received was the dagger.“Thank you, Mother! I will take care of this!” I happily hugged the weapon to my chest as if it was a normal thing to give to a child, like a toy or a dress that she gives Ruby.Jadeline patted my head with a smile that made me feel validated, “I’m sure you will, dear.”I stared at the silver hilted dagger in my hands today. It never felt like it fits in my hold but my own dagger was back at Eviera—I never got my things back from my previous kingdom.“Ah, you’re a cl
Obsession of the King: A Luna’s Revenge Chapter 156
Veronica’s POVFor the first time in a very long time, Helios is empty of its people.It was still dark and the sky was gloomy, as if sympathizing with the ominous events that are about to come later in the day. The bitter wind howled through the trees and vacant buildings within the territory. It almost sounded like a creepy crying gust of air. I watched the cloudless ether. The snow was falling on my skin but I was too numbed to feel any coldness. Ironically, I feel calmer than I expected. My heart was not hammering like how it usually is already. There was not even a tangible form of anger in my chest. It was just void and in peace. It makes me feel more eerie.“The kingdom has never been this quiet,” Nolan spoke from near me, his tone languid as he clasped his hands on top of his head, tilting his gaze and watching the same scenery as me.“Yes,” a voice responded. It was Rowan who was leaning on a nearby tree, his hands crossed over his chest while maintaining his impassive demea

Veronica’s POVThe spy is a dead end.“Aren wouldn’t be able to give us any information about Jadeline like we expected,” Nolan addressed the elephant in the room.We were all stuck in utter silence for our set meeting today. All the Rozeiros siblings are present with Eamon as an addition to us. We’re still yet to arrive on a decision of how we will move from here.“Shouldn’t we give him a proper funeral and find out how he truly died?” I asked them, the unsettling feeling never left me since yesterday.“I have talked with Soren,” Sebastian responded to me, “He said he wants to keep this private for a longer time, especially to their family and he asked if he could be the one assigned to pursue his brother’s case.”I bit my nail and asked, “Does he know about Aren being used by Jadeline?”“He got the whole picture after some time,” he paused and sighed, “When the two of us went to talk with the sorcerer last night, he revealed to us that Aren was long dead before he was used as a pupp

Soren’s POV“You should’ve been the one who died instead.”These were the last words I said to my brother. The twin I would never get to talk to ever again.It’s the same words that’s been eating me up from the inside. I will never forget the memory of that night when it started to fall apart. It’s etched in my entire being since then and it’s worse now.“Come on, Soren.” Aren tried pulling me from where I was kneeling on my knees. I couldn’t shed a tear anymore, I cried it all out, “We need to leave. They’re here…”“No,” I mumbled, still lost in haze. I cannot take my eyes away from the lifeless body in front of me. Blood is everywhere. I feel like throwing up and gauging my own eyes out.“I’m not gonna leave—we can’t leave…” My cold, shaking hands tried to hug the corpse to myself, trying to convince myself that I can still hear a heartbeat.Aren was looking outside the cottage, senses heightened as he was scanning for the people who were coming after us. But I couldn’t care less.A

Veronica’s POV“That shouldn’t be possible! Being soulless is unheard of!” Soren exclaimed, hysterical as he lunged at the sorcerer. “You’re probably mistaken, maybe you can cast the incantation again!”“Soren, calm down—” I tried to approach him and pull him from the poor sorcerer who he had been gripping tightly by the shoulders. “We can investigate this in a pro—”Soren shoved me harshly in the middle of his fit and I stumbled a bit from the force. Sebastian easily caught me by the arm and all of us watched Soren spiral. “It can’t be true! It can’t! Because if then… If then… Having no soul is basically…” Soren has let go of the sorcerer and is now pulling his hair with his widened crazed eyes.He faced us with a horrified expression as he mumbled,“Dead.”I couldn’t help but pity him so I walked to Soren and yanked to hug him, burying his head by the crook of my neck to release a calming scent. The moment I did, he started crying and sobbing. His hands unconsciously hugged me.Ome

Sebastian's POVThe possible traitors have always just been four people—this is a fact I have known since the first time I realized that we have a betrayer in the pack.Eamon. Isolde. Soren. Aren.The traitor has always been just among them and only them. After all, they are the four people who have been consistently present during the incidents and have the skills to pull off the deed. I did not consider Keldor who was stuck in Eviera and held hostage nor Analynn who has limited knowledge about our plans.Eamon’s only incriminating factor is that he is the Beta but I doubted that he would betray me.Isolde seemed attached to Veronica and I couldn’t think of any motive strong enough for her to risk it.Soren may seem a bit carefree but he’s an obedient and devoted warrior I have watched grow.Aren… Now him, I’ve always suspected. “He’s in this prison cell,” Veronica told Soren who was behind her, silent and with unreadable mixed emotions in his face. “We thought you should be here wh
Obsession of the King: A Luna’s Revenge Chapter 151
Veronica’s POV “How can you be so sure?” I asked Sebastian as we trudged the hallways, my heart hammering in my chest. I just fixed myself up after venting my anger in the practice field. He came to get me and then filled me in about his plans for the Helios traitor. I couldn't believe it when he first told me. I thought I was just too tired from lashing out at those poor dummies but he told me he’ll show it to me. “He's been working for you for years, right? He’s also a native pack member,” I said, my mind still in denial. A pack traitor is something that is hard to accept for werewolves. After all, we pride ourselves in our bonds with each other, it's what gives us strength. To have one in a kingdom as prosperous as Helios is simply unthinkable. Even as I am aware that there is definitely one for quite some time now. “It's only the fitting answer after we’ve traced the possibilities of how Eamon’s actions and his entire investigation was known to the enemy,” Sebastian respond

Veronica’s POVThe eclipse is more than just a week away.“You’re really obsessing over that bite, huh?” I turned to give Sebastian a smile as I let him rub his thumb over my gland, holding back a shiver from his touch. He shifted in the sheets and moved closer to nuzzle his nose by my neck, inhaling there, “Can you blame me?”“It’s the only thing that keeps us apart,” he mumbled as he dropped his head on my shoulder.Sebastian grabbed my hand and played with our fingers together.“Once we have the bond, we'll become one,” he blurts out, “I would feel your emotions, hear your thoughts… Our wolves would be complete, I’d be able to sense you, you’ll become part of me and—”He looks up to meet my gaze.“I'd always have you.”Sebastian said it so earnestly that I was left unable to say anything back.He sat properly now and reached to hold my cheek, “That’s all I ever wanted.”My heart hammered in my chest, feeling so full and cherished from the affection that he has always given me.I l

Note: The following chapter contains explicit adult content.* * * * *Veronica’s POVThe Veronica, who has heard the rumors of the fearsome king of Helios, and the frightened exiled Luna who first stepped in this territory, would’ve never imagined this even in her wildest dreams.Kissing Sebastian started in a fervent moving of our lips together, savoring each other like we’ve been starved for decades.It did feel like that.“Hmm,” I hummed in delight when he sucked on my tongue and tilted his head to explore the inside of my mouth better.With the continuous assault of problems towards us lately, starting from my abduction to the untangling of Jadeline’s grand plans, we never have time to actually be intimate anymore.Until tonight.Our kiss turned slow, languid, and dizzying. I felt drunk with the way he gently but harshly moved his lips on mine.I’m now kissing the same Alpha I used to only think in fear.Fate really is a funny thing.My wolf was purring inside me, enjoying this t
