Veronica’s POV

The reception was festive and lively. The entire Northern continent celebrated with us.

Sebastian and I sat close to each other. He had his hand on my lap as I leaned to him. I'm getting more and more comfortable in his presence.

Well, he is now my husband so that should be normal… right? Nothing to overthink about.

Yeah, okay. That's right. This is normal. This is not wrong. I can give myself this.

And if I crave something greedier whenever he touches me, that's only mine to keep.

The banquet was elegant and gorgeous. It was able to accommodate a great amount of our guest list. I heard there were even some attendees from the West, East, and South too. Naturally, there were a lot of faces I didn't know.

But of course, there are also those I am very familiar with.

Ruby and Colton were lining up to greet us at our table that was situated in front and on a stage of the venue. Because of our status, we're not the ones to go around the tables to thank our guests. The

One second we were still at the reception, next thing I knew, I was in his arms inside his master's bedroom.His chambers were dark and there were only the two of us. Alone. It was utterly silent in the night. I imagined this room to be bigger and surely it is. Yet it still somehow feels cramped. Like it’s closing in on us, trapping us into a space where we have no choice but to close the distance between our bodies.“Hey,” Sebastian whispered. His voice sounds so

Ah, ah!” Veronica was sobbing, face down on the pillow.My hand found her nape and I pushed her head down a bit more to the soft cushions as she continued moaning my name, “Sebastian!”I can feel my eyes darken as I felt the prid

I could hear the day starting outside. It was probably late in the morning.I feel numb and aching all over. I was sore in a lot of places. He really did take a toll on me.His arms were wrapped around me, my back on him, and I know that he is awake by the way he tries to nip and bite my neck.“Sebastian, you know it can't work yet,” I told him in a lazy manner, the tiredness was still in my bones.He was nipping for a

    Veronica’s POVThe Northern continent is cold by nature. Almost throughout the year, the weather is just varying levels of the wintry season. Sometimes we experience summer and spring but it's very short.There is no snow right now but it's still frosty so I wore a fur-trimmed overcoat with elegant embroidery, its A-line silhouette passing below my knee as I wear high boots to walk around. In our human form, werewolves can feel chilly too. Not that I feel the chill but Analynn insisted for me to wear this.It was Isolde and Soren who accompanied and toured me around Helios after lunch. It’s my first time leaving the palace premises aside from when I was at the previous mansion where I was originally locked up and the banquet last time.

That prick didn't even think that it was an important detail to tell his wife.He's gonna hear about it from me later.Nolan laughed at my expression and backed away. He went to stand beside Declan, as he introduced himself, and it was jarring how similar and different they are at the same time.He grins, “Sorry for scaring you, sis. We have a thing for

I don't think the triplets are leaving Helios soon. I think they still have some matters to attend to here. I stopped asking. I pretty much got the message that I shouldn't meddle on this.I headed back to my room but I knew Sebastian was also following behind me. I stopped by the doors to enter but he suddenly spoke.“Aren't you gonna sleep in our chambers?” His tone was serious and his eyes were observing my reactions keenly.“Your chambers?” I looked at him over

    Veronica’s POV“Do you want to join my meeting with the Sun Council next time?” Sebastian asked as I fixed his collar. He was looking at me.“If you need me,” I answered and then smoothed his vest, “And if they will let me,” I added with a snicker before looking at his face.There was an instant scowl on his expression after my last comment. He looked offended and said, “Of course they will. Why would they not let my queen be part of the pack business?”I laughed at the way he was so easily worked up by the mention of it, “Yeah, okay,” I just relented to not have a long conversation about it, “Don’t be too harsh on them, though.”“I’m not hard on them,” he reasons and tilted his head, “They just have to listen to me.”I crossed my arms over my chest and lectured him, “Wolf councils are established for a reason, Sebastian.”“You cannot rule alone,” I poked a finger on his shoulder to emphasize my point, “A king that listens to no one shouldn’t be anyone’s king.”He stared at me with co

    Veronica’s POV Virren moonstone is also known as the moonstone of eclipse. According to the book, it is a special jewel that could harness the power of light and darkness during the veiling of Sol and Luna. The sun and the moon. It's a folktale that dates back in olden times. The illustration is exactly how I remember the moonstone that Eviera has. It might really be the real thing, if the pack protects it dearly. “What are you gonna do now?” Sebastian asked as he flopped down to our bed and I remained standing, deep in thoughts. We were back in our chambers after a quick dinner which he insisted and I took the book with me to our room. “I now know what the moonstone is,” I said more to myself than to him, “I might find who did steal it and what is their real purpose. Whether it's just really against me or there's another ulterior motive.” “Wouldn’t it make sense that it’s your stepsister who tried to steal it?” He asked me, “I mean she basically set you up.” “It’s not imposs

    Veronica's POVI didn't sleep a wink and I haven't talked to Sebastian since yesterday.He also didn't attempt to initiate any conversation. I'm not sure whether I like that I had the space I needed or dwell on the fact that he didn't reach out. I can't even understand my emotions anymore.“The investigation will commence in the chambers of the Sun Council later this day, Luna,” Isolde spoke with more formality than usual behind me.I remained staring at myself in front of the mirror while Analynn silently brushed my hair. I have very evident dark circles under my eyes. We slept in separate rooms last night. One of the perks of this big palace.“Your presence is being asked by both the officials of Helios and the Holy Parliament for the upcoming interrogation,” Isolde continued, “But this morning, they want to have a meeting about the events with your required attendance.I didn't respond right away. I knew I couldn't avoid this, though.This is a grave matter and as the queen, as mu

    Veronica's POV“Is it true?” I asked Sebastian once we closed the doors of our chambers as he paced inside the room in silence.The representatives of the Holy Parliament agreed to remain waiting at the great hall but they did not retreat their soldiers and insisted on staying until we cooperate.I watched him, his back was on me and he stood by the big windows of our bedroom, staring outside in deep thoughts.I had a hunch since he stormed out without outright denying it.From what I know about him, he would've been firm in sending the officials out and chastising them if those accusations are indeed baseless. Also, I don't think they would've risked pointing fingers at someone with his political power if they don't have a strong evidence.But I would prefer he tell me that I'm wrong.“I'm asking you, Sebastian,” I spoke again when he still did not respond and stopped just a few steps behind him, observing his actions.Then I asked once more, my tone sharp and demanding, “Is it true

    Note: This chapter contains flashback with some violent scenes.**Sebastian’s POVThe murder at the Culling Tournament— I still remember that night vividly. ‘Should’ve killed the bastard’My wolf told me in grit as we left Colton unconscious behind us. I ignored his provocations and just continued walking away.It was getting late in the evening and it took everything in me to not end that loser’s life right then and there. It's honestly a miracle.‘Teach him a lesson! He was messing with what’s ours!’I clenched my jaw and closed my eyes to heave a deep breath before I shook my head off to tune out my protesting inner wolf.Keeping him at bay is challenging when I could barely hold my normal self back. We desire for the same thing.I wanted to do it. I really do. But Veronica might hate me after. That's something I cannot live with.We're already fighting right now and it's pissing me off how Colton is the reason for our first fight. The idea that she still cared enough for him to

    Veronica’s POVThe moment I opened my eyes, I felt empty inside.“Are you okay? What ha—” I pulled Sebastian by the neck and hugged him tight. His hand automatically wrapped around my waist as he settled on the mattress while I cling to him.It feels as if I am in mourning all over again. The emotions are complicated, of being able to finally talk to my mother after years of her death but only the woman that she was before I was in her life. She felt so close and so distant from my grasps all at the same time.Also, finding out that I have been used my entire life by the person I have loved, and still somehow do, is overwhelming.I feel so lost and tired.

    Veronica's POV“What do you mean about being the chosen one?” I stared at her dumbfoundedly as my heartbeat started to quicken.This is among my worst fears. The weight of the responsibility of being a Crysmorra.Victoria stared at me for a long minute, as if trying to gauge me. I must've looked very shaken right now.She sighed and gave me a sympathetic smile. Something tells me that she understands how overwhelming this feels, for someone to be told about being the chosen one. After all, she preceded me.“The Nine Servants of the Moon Goddess were maidens selected to be conduits of her holy presence to our world,” she explained, “By time, they were considered as saints in other scriptures too.”Victoria paused, as if recollecting her own knowledge, “We’re supposed to be sacred servants and not meant to join lycan packs but the initial pledge was broken and thus, during the course of centuries, the Nine Servants became unknown to most, remaining as stories barely passed on through do

    Veronica’s POV “I'll be here when you wake up,” Sebastian squeezed my hand while assuring me and I squeezed it right back. “Thank you,” I told him with relief in my voice. For some reason, I feel a little bit scared. My emotions have been quite unsteady lately. I think all the overwhelming events are taking its toll on me now. “Sure,” he gave a tight smile and his voice dropped low as he uttered, “Just come back to me, okay?” I have no other place aside from the one that belongs with him— is what I wanted to say. But I simply nodded, “Yeah.” After that, I closed my eyes and started forcing myself into a deep slumber. After our late talk last night, we have decided that I should give a try to contacting my mother. It has never crossed my mind. Maybe because she has turned into more of a figure in my past life, the younger years that seem so distant to me, than an actual person. She has become something unreal. Victoria seemed so much like a figment of my fantasy. But she is

    Veronica’s POV “I think Jadeline was a rogue from the Helios pack,” our chambers fell silent and Sebastian slowly looked up to me from where he was kissing my chest and shoulders. We locked eyes with one another and broke the trance we were at. Okay, I could've dropped this to him in a better way. He slowly pulled back from how he was hovering on top of me and I remained laying on the bed, fixing my slipping top while he had a scowl on his face. “This is not what I had in mind for a pillow talk,” he grunted in evident frustration. “I'm sorry,” I bit my lower lip and sat up too. My eyes glanced at the clock inside our room. It's late in the evening already. I stared at Sebastian who was annoyed that I interrupted our time together. However, I have racked my brain for any other possible conclusion and it always comes circling back to that outcome. It's bothering me and I unknowingly blurted it out. “Gods, Veronica,” he looked at me in disbelief, “We were just making out and you

    Veronica’s POV “The saintess tears necklace,” I read from the page of the archived books, “It is said to carry the souls of each generation of the servants.” I looked at Sebastian who was staring at the illustration I was pointing at. It was the exact copy of the necklace he had gifted to me. “You have great luck. I can't believe you found this!” I exclaimed in astonishment, holding the necklace up and examining it. This just answered why I seemed to have a fascination about this particular jewelry. I wasn't imagining the way it felt so right and closer to me. Sebastian stood straighter and put his hands on his hips before staring at me, “I won't call it luck,” he mutters. I tilted my head in confusion at his response. He gave me a serious expression and elaborated, “I think the necklace found its way back to you,” he turned the book around and pushed it to me, tapping on the excerpt from a page. It reads: ‘The pendant, a manifestation of the muses’s souls, seeks its next own

All eyes were on me and my voice echoed for everyone to hear.“Please feel free to come to the palace if you ever face hardship during these times, the castle doors are open and will welcome you,” I continued while looking around the gathered pack members, officials, and common folk seated with their goblets at the tables.The room was filled with eager and appreciative energy which only pushed me to become more confident in my words, as I assure each person, eyes scanning and holding eye contact to some, “No one among Helios will face the winter alone and we will weather t
