[Amor’s POV]

My mother had never slapped me.

I wasn’t trying to rip off her clothes. It was an accident. Or maybe that too was a part of her plan to gain everyone’s favour.

That was why I hated women. They were full of drama, tactics and conspiracy. No matter what they do to men, no one would say a word, but if a man does the slightest thing to them, the entire world goes against him.

I strutted to the chivalry practice ground, which had turned muddy because of the rain. The knights who were there bowed in unison. I gestured them to leave, and they emptied the ground.

I took off my clothes from my upper body and started hitting wooden targets with my sword.

That girl is a headache. Her double personality was literally pissing me off.

If she wasn’t important to protect, I would have killed her along with that mate of hers.

Mate. Another fucking concept of this freaking society. Mate! Nothing like mates or true love existed in real life. It was either lust or selfishness. Love w

    [Amor’s POV] She confessed so easily? I didn’t expect her to. I thought she might show another tantrum, and this time, people would actually believe her because she tried to kill herself. “See mother. She confessed. Do you understand now that I am not at fault? It was her acting all along…” Mother peered at me with slightly widened eyes, as if she was shocked by something. Was it because of her confession? “Isolation…” she said in a calm voice. Lucella glared at me and left. The maids followed her. Mother closed the door from inside. “I understand son, I understand now. Completely. It is not your fault…” “Exactly. She is also like Dawn Blaze. Women like her…” “It’s all my fault.” Mother said. I stopped speaking and looked at her, confused. “From the beginning till the end, it’s my fault.” “What are you saying, mother? She clearly confessed…” “There must be some fault in my parenting. In the way I brought you up…” “Mother… why are you blaming yourself…” “That was not a conf

    [Amor’s POV] I was about to leave the room with Zeve when my mother said, “I will never attest to this marriage.” Without looking at her I said, “you don’t have to attest this marriage. Temple will.” I said and this time I didn’t have to drag her. She was walking on her own. “Please wait. Can I do something before we leave? I promise I won’t take too long.” Zeve said, looking at Celeste and I released her arm. She got the kitten from mother and gave it to Celeste, kneeling before her. “I am really sorry, Celeste. It is all because of me. But… Please take care of Karuna for me. Karuna means compassion. Thank you for understanding…” She wiped her tears swiftly and hugged Celeste. “Thank you for everything.” Zeve’s voice shivered, as if she was dying and would never meet her again. Celeste would be well protected with royal guards for all those years. Of course she would never know about them, but I am not stupid enough to leave my twelve years old cousin sister in that deadly place

    [Amor’s POV] “Well. It’s some kind of traditional pre-marriage journey. The alpha and his to-be luna of the Aurora pack have to take this journey before the marriage. I don’t know why such a ridiculous ritual was made…” I shrugged, looking at Zeve. She looked intrigued, so I continued. “Mother says it creates better bonding between partners when they face the world and life together. They get to understand and know each other on a deeper level. But all this is some ridiculous myth considering what happened to her. But since they have followed it for ages, and even though I know it is nothing but stupidity, who am I to go against it? Honestly, I was going to go against it, but when my mother said she wouldn’t attest to this marriage, I understood what she meant. She wouldn’t attest to it until it was done with complete rituals.” “Why travel like commoners? Wouldn’t it be easy to travel faster with your the greatest alpha of all time title?” “Greatest alpha of all time? Who gave me

  • Rejected to be His Luna   14. She's in heat

    [Amor’s POV] I had rented two rooms. I had no intentions of sleeping in the same room with her. I entered my room. Zeve was sitting on the sofa with two maids trying to console her, but her hiccups were unbearable. “What the hell are you all looking at? Go get some water!” I yelled at them. “Everyone out!” Zeve got on her feet. The maids left. One of them brought a glass of water, placed it on the table, and left. I walked closer to Zeve. Sniffling, she wiped off her tears. As soon as she wiped the previous ones, new ones trailed down her cheeks. She scratched her nails, lowering her head in front of me. I reached out my hand to her cheeks, but stopped and took back my hand. “I am not lying… I don’t even know him. Please trust me. I… know what you think about me… you think… I am that kind of woman… but…” she choked on her tears. “... I am not. I don’t know why he came. Please trust me…” her voice cracked. She was still trembling, just like when she woke from the dream and hugg

  • Rejected to be His Luna   15. Garden in room

    [Zeve’s POV] My heats were the worst period of my life. They happened every three months and brought with them insatiable urges. Fighting those urges, this body, and its desires all alone made it the worst. Because even though I had a person I could call my lover, I never had his company during these times. Once again, Chaz was all over my mind. Even though I knew he was dead and no matter how many times I called him — confessed to him — he wouldn’t come. I was twenty-two years old and had several heats after I became reproductively mature, but Chaz never touched me. We kissed twice. That, too, was superficial, as if he was forced to kiss me. But I didn’t understand why he tried to distance himself from me when he was the one who confessed to me. I had bottled up my feelings and understood that he was beyond my reach. But he gave me hope and then took it away. Why? Yesterday was my second day and my scent was the strongest. Maybe that was the reason Amor acted like that. Just th

    [Zeve’s POV] It’s been five days already, and my heat has subsided. With the doctor’s help, I didn’t even feel like I was suffering. For the first time, I could let out all my cravings and they were fulfilled immediately. The best part was Amor didn’t come to visit me, not even once. Not seeing his face for five days was like a blessing. “My lady, how are you today?” Doctor May came in. “Much better than before,” I said in high spirits. She smiled with a soft chuckle. She had brought breakfast. “Doctor May, is he in the inn?” “You mean Alpha Amor?” she asked. I nodded. “He has been in the inn all this time. He kept asking about you every day. Maybe because you aren’t married yet, so he didn’t take care of you himself, but I have never seen a man who thinks heats can be deadly. He even asked me if your life was in danger.” She chuckled. Did he really think I would die because of my heat? Stupid. There was a knock at the door, and I flinched. I heard him clear his throat, “ca

    [Zeve’s POV] I stared at the only horse standing at the back door of the inn. “We are running low on budget, so we have to share a horse, is it ok?” Amor said, hanging my backpack on the carrier hook of that horse. Huh! Why was he asking me? He would do what he wanted to. My opinions never mattered and would never matter to anyone. I peered at the ground and he became silent again. I glanced at him, and he was peering at me again. What exactly is wrong with this man? “It’s lovely when you don’t speak, trust me. A good girl doing everything she is told,” he said with the fakest smile I had ever seen. I rolled my eyes. His face turned impassive in less than a second. “Your obedience — it’s pissing me off. Kindly get back to your I-am-your-death self.” “Why? So that you can call her a whore, humiliate her and rip off her clothes in front of everyone, question her character when you barely knew her for a day or two? No thanks.

  • Rejected to be His Luna   18. Exercise with him

    [Zeve’s POV] Amor clearly heard me, but he didn’t reply. Well, I did not expect him to, anyway. After that, I didn’t talk to him either. We crossed massive mountains that had owned the green colour of the grass in their foots. But towards their peak they lost all colours and with abstract clouds surrounding them, they owned the greyish white colour near the horizon. Wildlife was quite active in the grey light of the night. No torches, no fire lit the grasslands, ponds, icecaps of the mountains, yet the serenity in them was out of this world. Birds chirped as if they were beckoning something they had been longing for years. The echoing silence amplified even the faintest cries of a deer and added it to the melody of the nature. I kept looking left then right simultaneously to capture everything I was seeing in myself forever. Beyond that cage was a world so free, so beautiful. The dancing plants, the alive and frivolous wildlife, the arrogant mountains and the gentle rivers slicing

  • Rejected to be His Luna   290. The First Sunrise

    [Zeve’s POV] As I plunged into the magma, I had no thoughts in my head. My body was being consumed by the flames, while my heart almost stopped. It was cold inside the volcano. My clothes and armour melted away, but neither the flames nor the magma touched my skin. They flowed inches away from my skin. I held my breath. The bright red glowing magma flowed magnificently inside the volcano. It was scary how I could feel its heat yet not get burned. It was like one of those dreams came to reality, except this time the one to be burnt in flames was me and not Amor. The magma behind me started taking some kind of form. I felt Amor’s presence and my heart skipped a beat. I felt hands warped under my waist and knees. I shut my eyes with a shudder. The next thing I remember was I was sitting far away on the ground and watching the magma, ashes and rocks explode out of the volcano like fireworks. There was a dazzling figure hovering above the volcano, suppressing it back into the ground

Put down the blade…” Zahir coaxed Venus into his manipulative tone.Venus distanced the blade from her throat as if Zahir’s words were controlling her on a mental level. Her hands were shaking as she held the blade to her throat.Her eyes were frozen, as if she was in Zahir’s control. She shook her head with a gasp, “no, not anymore. You can’t control me anymore…” her voice came out hoarse and shaky.And she put the blade against her neck again, this time cutting her skin and bleeding.“NO! NO! Stop!” Zahir panicked and stepped back from Venus, raising his hands.“What the hell is going on here? Venus!” I called out and was about to go to her when Hikari held my hand.I looked at him and frowned. Hikari shook his head.I looked at Venus again and the blade was Hikari’s katana.“Your katana?” I felt a strange fear take over me as I stared at Hikari for an answer.“I must have dropped

His body… it’s like it’s melting. I couldn’t get these nightmares out of my head and it’s disturbing. A lot. So, I came to you for guidance. Do these nightmares mean something?’‘Dreams are often a window for the future. We just need to interpret them rightly,’ priestess Melantha said when I met her in my third year in Phantoria. ‘For a seed to turn into a sapling and then into a huge tree, the seed coat needs to break. He’ll burn for you and this world.’‘No, he won’t. I won’t let death touch him, not because of me — especially not because of this world.’ This was what I told her, and then she replied with a subtle smile.‘What is the definition of death for you, luna?’ She asked.‘I don’t know. Death for me is what it’s for everyone else. Bad, painful and gloomy and… end.’‘When the right time comes, you will

    [Zeve’s POV]There were two souls active inside Killian. One was of Derek and another of Polaris. Killian decided based on the soul that dominated him at a time.That was the only sane explanation I could give to why he was using Celeste as a hostage when Killian saved her, risking his own life.“Fine,” I said, calmly. “Let them go. But I don’t know how to get the core out of my body. Extract it yourself.”Killian frowned. “No hidden tricks, Zeve. I don’t have time for that.”I raised my hand to my shoulders as if I was surrendering myself. “I am telling you the truth. I was born with this core and never took it out. I am not playing any tricks.”Killian thought for some time and then stretched his palm towards me. Four black magic circles appeared around me. One above my head, one below my feet, one in front of my chest, and one behind it.“I am already stuck here. I can’t escape. Please let them go now,” I said. The hellhounds backed off from Lucella and Celeste.The suction from

    [Zeve’s POV]The sound of gunshots, along with screams of the knights getting attacked, mashed up with the howls of the hellhounds dominating the road. Killian coughed vigorously and threw out the broken pieces of rock with his teeth and blood from his mouth. “Oh, I know what devilishness it takes to create a utopia. But you really piss me off whenever I see you…” Killian snarled at Amor.Killian created a dark energy ball between himself and Amor, who was pressing him against the ground. The energy ball exploded, flinging Amor far away from Killian.Amor jumped back to his feet and drew out his sword. The armour worked. Amor wasn’t hurt badly. But I could just stand and wait for him to be hurt.I looked at the sky with my apprehension increasing with every second.On the training grounds, the screeches of shadow eaters were tackling the fire wall, keeping them locked within the magic circle. It was as if their screams were summoning the rain because heavy clouds had started looming

    [Killian’s POV]Dark clouds stirred over the ruins of the Aura palace and its training grounds. The land had prepared to devour the souls and vomit a curse in the darkest shade of black to open the portal to the dark world from where the creatures of hell would flood the land, turning it into their grazing field. They would feed on souls and lock them in timeless gloom — in a world of nothingness and doom. Their minds were under my control and their souls on my command would set themselves ablaze on the magical ground.I was prepared and so was the enemy.Heavy military and army of hundreds guarded the boundaries around the precinct of the Aura palace and its land. The knights were armoured and ready with their swords, defending the boundaries of the palace from outside.Warriors were ironclad in their wolf forms.

I am proud of you,” I said.A week without the key core and Celeste already looked so fragile. I had to get back the key core from Killian after the plan played out the way I wanted it to.I looked at the sky. The chess board was laid out, the only thing left was the game to begin.“Zeve, I don’t like this at all. You are pregnant and even if everything goes according to your plan, it’s still dangerous because we don’t know what might happen when things actually start happening,” Amor said.I looked at Amor and smiled.“I have heard kids take after their parents.
