Queen Luna's Revenge - The Victim or The Villain 59. Patient Zero
First, on the agenda, Aakifahlynn visited Pauline, and Pauline accompanied her to the hospital, which was almost overflowing with people suffering from the same ailment as Pauline's daughter.This hospital was more significant than the one in the Kingdom of Tamman. Aakifahlynn walked side by side with Pauline as she observed her surroundings.It was her first time here, and she still compared the Empire to the Kingdom. Little did Aakifahlynn know that this was not her first time here. Maybe in this timeline, it is her first time…The hospital smelt of bleach and some other types of robust chemicals. Aakifahlynn saw medical equipment and instruments in the Gazini Empire that they did not have in the Kingdom of Tamman either, and here she thought the crown had the latest and best in everything.It is a vast building with three floors, beds running the length of opposite walls, and no privacy.The second floor housed rooms where they perform surgeries; the third was for children.Upon e

Aakifahlynn stirred awake, taking a few seconds to get caught up. She was resting but had no recollection of getting to her room, let alone her bed.She surmised Demarion, the disgraced Emperor who had brought her here after the hospital. Gosh, the hospital, Aakifahlynn, hoped everyone had fully recovered.She stretched and sat up, wondering what time of day it was and how long she had been out. Her pretty blue eyes slid to the large clock on the wall.Long and short, hands were on twelve, and by the light shining in from outside, Aakifahlynn knew it had to be 12 noon.She sighed. A day had passed, and she knew it. Aakifahlynn recalled it being midday when she was at the hospital. Nevertheless, she felt good but comprehended she needed to run.Thinking of her next move, sadness, and loneliness engulfed Aakifahlynn, and she took a moment to wallow, falling back on the pillow.It dawned heavily on her that she was entirely ALONE with no one to trust.And who she could trust, she wanted

The Kingdom of Tamman 1805 Drawing nearer to the castle's stylish, expansive black iron gates, standing tall, strong, and domineering with intricate patterns. On the tall, sturdy post on either side stood a ferocious black wolf statue on its hind legs, snout pointing towards the sky. Queen Luna Aakifahlynn noticed a crowd outside the gates from the backseat of the silver royal limousine, the first of its kind. One thing about the Royals, they had the best and the latest of what this wretched world had to offer. Setting closer, she could see that the crowd out here filtered out from what was happening inside the gate. She could hear the muffled screaming and shouting but could not clearly decipher what they were saying. However, suddenly the place went silent as Queen Luna Aakifahlynn focused her hearing, tuning in. It was as if someone knew she was tuning in and gave the order for silence. The uproar stopped. However, the people continued shouting and fist pumping in the air, 'Y

Aakifahlynn clutched her aching chest with one hand as she held the papers in the other.Her eyes were wide in shock, a shiver of dread ran down her spine, and her already strained state weakened as she read.'The PEOPLE OF THE KINGDOM OF TAMMAN,' Aakifahlynn's eyes narrowed, and eyebrows deepened, "Jairus? What's this?" Her voice was barely audible, but she knew he would hear her with his wolf senses.Aakifahlynn continued reading, but she did not like how he stood there lightly, leaning his butt on his desk observing, and each time she questioned, he gestured to her with a roll of his palm to keep going. But it was not that she could not read and understand. It was just that she could not begin to fathom what brought this on. 'How? When? Why?'This made her a bit anxious and uneasy; she continued, 'To All Who Shall See These, Presents.....DIVORCE GREETING''Know ye shall license and permission was given,' she could not continue reading. Aakifahlynn stared unblinking at her husband

"What are you waiting on? I SAID GET OUT AND GET OUT NOW!" Billionaire Alpha King Jairus Mathiasen growled menacingly and was in front of her instantly, leaving his mistress's side.His sweet luscious lips that used to kiss her tears away or pepper kisses all over her body, having her skin erupt in a flurry of warm, comforting, and sensual tingles now curled into a scowl as he reared back his hand and struck her across the face, this time with the already prepared and signed divorce paper.Causing her to stumble, hunching over sideways with the force of her husband's shove behind the slap. With her reflexes, she was able to right herself as she held the side of her face that stung in the aftermath of his heavy hand. And yet mild sparks were warming it simultaneously, but she was thankful he did not use his full strength on her weakened body.Yes, her husband, a man she had married, loved, and given five years of her life as a doting and supportive wife and Queen Luna. That same man w

Queen Luna Aakifahlynn rolled down the stairs and landed on the gravel and stone path below the steps in front of a crowd of magical beings, some humans among them.Her aching bones were bruised further as she hit each step on her way down.And only then did she hear what they were shouting as clear as day.'PUNISH HER,' 'THE WEAK QUEEN,' 'UNFIT LUNA,' 'UNFIT TO RULE.' And some grunts and cheers of agreement.And at that moment, Aakifahlynn realized the depth of this betrayal. He would whip her in front of these people, further stripping her of any ounce of dignity she tried to hold onto.Surely they wanted to punish her, but why? However, at this moment, she wished for death.She felt empty yet full because of the mate bond. Every hurt, aching, soul-crushing pain and trauma racked her body. The mate bond would offer her a sense of calm and comfort. Lies, all lies, Aakifahlynn thought but resigned herself to the comfort it still afforded as she faced her faith.She tried to sit up, h

Aakifahlynn felt her flesh being torn. Her skin stung as the whipper continued his whippings, and she was sure germs were already setting in from whatever filth the whip was soaking in.Because among her blood that filled the air, there was also the stench of something foul.*WATAX, WATAX, WATAX* came the sound of the final three whips.Her back was a bloody mess. Her skin was stripped to pieces. Aakifahlynn was sure of it. She could feel her pale skin dangling off in the back there, hitting her softly as she swayed.Her face was a mixture of tears, perspiration, spittle, and mucus that ran out her nose.Suddenly, the whipper cut the rope that held her upright, and she fell to the ground and rolled, screaming out as pain caused by the sharp stones and gravel that penetrated her sore back shut through her.Her breathing was still ragged. She heaved as much air into her lungs as tears streamed down her cheeks endlessly. She shook as it was now over. She whimpered.Aakifahlynn hoped he w

Suddenly, the clouds grumbled in anger. Darkness filled the atmosphere. Demarion had swooped in, ripped the Duke away from Aakifahlynn, and pelted him across the lot. He then disappeared and reappeared in front of the Duke across the lot, picked him up, and held him steady. At the same time, he shoved his sharp, elongated, claw-like hands into the Duke's chest and tore out his heart.Demarion moved with the speed of lightning; he did all this before Aakifahlynn could utter her next line of seduction or make another sound of pleasure or before the Duke could even process what was happening.Demarion squeezed the Duke's heart and crushed it; only tissue and clumps of clot-like blood caressed the dirt floor.Demarion was not about to watch her flirt and seduce this man. Goddess, how far was she willing to go? Goddess, damn it, he could not bare the thought.So yes, he did it. He killed him for touching his Empress.Aakifahlynn was shocked and then looked disappointed only because she wa
Queen Luna's Revenge - The Victim or The Villain 57. Coolness of the Night
Aakifahlynn ordered a drink and looked around. The place was at its usual pace. A few businessmen were here and there, and a few couples were having dinner. A band playing music to the left. The waiter returned with her scotch on the rocks. Aakifahlynn thanked him and continued her assessment of the Tavern. The decor was one of class and an ambiance of romance.An establishment like this is frequented by those considered high society citizens. Aakifahlynn soon realized the waiter was still staring at her, "Is something the matter?"Now that he had been caught staring, the now uncomfortable waiter said very awkwardly, "Please, forgive me, my lady...it's just that you are so beautiful."She was dressed as Adeline, but this was not the shy and meek Adeline. This Adeline also allowed herself to take a page from Taisiya's looks for the occasion of seduction before revenge or murder. Call it what you want, she thought with a devilish smile.And thanks to Roslyn's teachings, Aakifahlynn was

"And don't you worry about me. I will be fine." Aakifahlynn paused momentarily and added, "I would like to visit the hospital," Aakifahlynn then regarded Pauline.She needed a guide to the hospital. "Can you take me there tomorrow?" Aakifahlynn asked politely, not wasting another minute.Pauline instantly let go of her daughter, dropped to her knees, bowed, and declared, "Anything you need, Queen Luna."Her Empress just saved her daughter's life on top of everything else. Of course, she would accompany her to the hospital.Pauline had told Aakifahlynn that Paula was not the only case, and Aakifahlynn decided then and there to find a way to help the Empire—only in an attempt to even the offer.Aakifahlynn was no fool; she knew what was promised was too good to be true, primarily because of what they wanted in return.Although she had accepted, that did not mean she was happy about feeling indebted to these people."Thank you, Pauline. Please keep this between us. I shall see you on the
Queen Luna's Revenge - The Victim or The Villain 55. Something was amiss
Aakifahlynn took the time to go through her list and grab each item off of it. Soon, she handed the sweet old lady named Ann a few gold coins for her purchases and then left.And lovely Ann could not stop giving her thanks. Before returning, Aakifahlynn wanted to pop into the bakery for some sweet cakes.She enjoyed them to the moon and back.On entering, she saw the lovely young woman she had met the last time. However, she looked distressed and a bit gloomy."Good evening, Dear." Aakifahlynn greeted gently and quickly glanced around for the sweet, active, and friendly redhead little girl seen at the bakery. She had warmed Aakifahkynn's heart on her last visit, but when Aakifahkynn did not see the sweet girl, Aakifahlynn's chest tightened.Pauline answered, but her voice was hoarse, almost a whisper: "Good evening, Queen Luna…how may I assist you this afternoon?""Pauline, where is Paula?" Aakifahlynn's intuitions told her something was off about this woman today.She did not know
Queen Luna's Revenge - The Victim or The Villain 54. Three days later
While Aakifahlynn settled in comfortably, her mind trickled to Jairus, and she debated again: Why did this happen? Why did he treat her this badly when he was made to love her? What did she do that deserved this? How could someone be so cruel and evil? Wicked even.Aakifahlynn knew she was not perfect. She'd done things in the name of protecting her Kingdom, but what happened to her in her past timeline was unjust.Aakifahlynn remembered begging Jairus to let her leave as she was unfit and unworthy of leading; she could no longer be helpful in the way she wanted to be and would only bring him down with her."The people need a strong leader, my love," she had urged. "You can't afford to have them see you as the weak Alpha King." Aakifahlynn pleaded."My name is feared in all the lands." Jairus roared."No one would dare challenge me." he pointed at himself, pushing into his chest, his features a dangerous snare."And what I say goes, I make the laws, and this, Aakifahlynn, is not happe
Queen Luna's Revenge - The Victim or The Villain 53. His Allures
"So, sweetheart, what are you planning on doing?" Aakifahlynn's mother, Arwen, broke the awkward and nervous laughter between the three. As far as Aakifahlynn's parents were concerned, they were already living a retired life, their finances were pretty good, and they could support their daughter until she got on her feet again. Meanwhile, Demarion simply stared daggers at Aakifahlynn. He would provide for her; she would want for nothing, but how could he tell her that right now? He flipped his fork between his fingers a few times as he contemplated. He'd already decided to allow this. Besides, half the Stygian is hers.Every time this happens, it is a new idea because she always starts off with a plan that includes a means of survival.These stalls were always left in the care of large, generational families, who would survive the test of time, honoring the contract she would set with strict instructions to be passed down from generation to generation.And if offered up to be run b
