Rejected to be His Luna 129. Crimson melancholy
[Zeve’s POV] “Who taught you swords?” I expected that question from him. There was no point in hiding anything from him, anyway. “Chaz Enver,” I said. He frowned. “Why would he?” I shrugged. “I don’t know. Chaz taught me the basics for three months and then he made me promise to never use what he taught me ever in my life even if I was dying.” Amor thoughtfully contemplated my reflection in his sword’s blade. He tightened his jaws. “I shouldn’t have given him such a simple death. Damn it!” Amor growled, gritting his teeth. “Why didn’t you tell me you know the basics?” “Because I didn’t know what he taught me were the basics. I thought what he taught me was some random sword techniques. I didn’t intend to hide anything from you, but we had never had a conversation about swords before. You assumed I didn’t know the basics of swords. You never asked me if I did or not.” I said matter-of-factly. “That’s… well, that’s right. I hate to admit this, but that bastard taught you the b
Rejected to be His Luna 130. Reasons I saved her
[Amor’s POV] “Morfan! Where are the things we expropriated from the Enver pack?” I asked Morfan while we were going through the reports the dukes submitted about the current situation all over the pack. “You asked to burn them,” Morfan said. “As if you’d.” I looked at him. He smirked faintly. “Of course, I wouldn’t. There can be important secrets in those documents that can come in handy in the future, alpha. Enver pack was the most secluded pack even though it occupied less land. It was strong and its military was exceptional to have protected their pack from our first three attacks. Then those letters too…” Morfan was right. Enver pack had held back our three attacks. I wasn’t that interested in their land or territory because they were on the other side of the world, so all three times, I sent a troop along with one that aimed to confiscate Nialruz. Even though it wasn’t a full-fledged army that attacked the Enver pack, the troop I sent comprised extremely powerful warrior
Rejected to be His Luna 131. Thank the waves
[Amor’s POV] I had to do my research, anyway. It was better to not get too attached to a power. I exhaled. “Where are the things from the Enver pack?” I asked Morfan, rubbing my temples. “They are piled in your office in the Aura palace in Arginieth along with other works that have been pending for three and a half months,” Morfan said with a daunting smile. I knew what that smile meant. He was going to make me work overtime for several months to get those works done, along with the new ones that would keep adding up every day. I sighed, “you won’t show me any mercy, will you? Even if I am newly married?” I looked at him, blinking innocently. “Don’t even think about Mercy and as for newly married. No one knows better than me what kind of relationship you have with her highness. I wrote the contract, did you forget? So even if the god of death comes to collect your soul, I won’t let you take a day’s leave. Not to forget all the explanations you need to give for your abiding order
Rejected to be His Luna 132. Knight's hierarchy
[Amor’s POV] While I went through all the reports, Zeve had completed a hundred rounds of swords’ basics with the knight. She was drenched in sweat from head to toe when she came with the knight. I gaped at her heaving chest, proud smile and the shirt that stuck to her skin. Morfan gaped at both of them, panting like crazy with ruffled hairs and completely disoriented clothes. “What time is it now, Morfan?” I asked. “Midnight, alpha,” he replied. I had asked her to do a hundred rounds in the evening when the clouds were greyish red. Don’t tell me she had been training without a second’s rest. “You can call it a day, knight,” I said. He bowed. “Thank you for your great tutoring, Arki. I understand swords a little better now,” Zeve said, looking at the knight with a smile. Arki? I, being the alpha, never bothered knowing their names, and she had trained with him once and just look at her talking so informally with him as if they were old friends. Why is every freaking man
Rejected to be His Luna 133. The right people
[Amor’s POV] The whole night I taught her the higher skills and even after being that tired, Zeve learned them all quickly. There were a few techniques she couldn’t understand, and she just asked to repeat them until she did. Her learning spirit was so cool it lifted my teaching spirit. I bet she would have kept on practising the new skills if I hadn’t picked her up in my arms and taken her to our sleeping chamber. “Amor! Let go of me! I can keep going. I am tired, but not that tired…” she uselessly struggled in my arms. “Yeah. Yeah. I know. I know. Don’t overdo or else your muscles will be sore, then you will have to waste days recovering. Remember, a very important part of sword training is knowing when to stop.” “Ok, fine. You can put me down. Everyone is looking at us…” she whispered. “Why do you care about the world? How many times do I need to tell you that the only person you need to care about in this pack is me?” “Amor!” I kicked the door open of our sleeping chamber
Rejected to be His Luna 134. Sharing wolf names
[Zeve’s POV] “What should I name my wolf? Hmm… this is annoying…” I groaned, looking at the waves crashing at the ship. I leaned against the railing, but I couldn’t think of any suitable name. Amor’s wolf is Rian, which means king, that he is. So should I keep it something similar to a queen? Ew. No. This is so annoying. I dropped my head and hands over the railing as they dangled over the sea. “What to name, what to name, what to name, my wolf?” I sang it like a pirate’s song. “Zeve! What are you doing?” Lucella rushed to me and made me stand properly on the deck. “Do you wish to fall into the sea?” “Ah! Lucella, what is your wolf’s name?” I asked her blatantly. “What~ WHAAAT!” She shouted. I looked at her, confused. “What’s with that reaction? I just wanted to know your wolf’s name since I am naming my wolf, but I can’t figure out what to name her.” Lucella coughed and then cleared her throat. “Umm. Zeve, do you know what it means when two people share their wolf’s n
Rejected to be His Luna 135. Ria meets Rian
[Zeve’s POV] Rian. I chuckled as I kept repeating his wolf’s name in my mind. I was the only keeper of Amor’s wolf’s name. Amor’s wolf’s name, he told me. Maybe as a friend, but still it felt special. I felt special, worthy, and respected. I wanted to see him as fast as I could and then tell him my wolf’s name. Tell him I respected him too, that I would be loyal to him too. Maybe not for eternity, but for as long as he needs me, I will be loyal to him. I took back my hand that I lifted to knock on the door of his workplace. He didn’t come to the sleeping chamber last night. He must be busy, right? Should I come later? No, I want to tell him my wolf’s name. I was about to knock at the door again, but then I stopped. I paced in front of the door, trying to decide whether I should tell him now or tell him casually later. Should I pretend like it’s not a big deal when it was such a life-changing moment? What should I do? “Come inside and think, your breaths are distractin
Rejected to be His Luna 136. Keep flowing
[Zeve’s POV] “Will you listen to everything ‘Ria’ means?” Amor gently caressed my cheeks. “I will listen to everything you have to say.” His hand slid down my arm as he held my fingers. His thumb gently caressed them. The heat from Ria and Rian’s kiss was still lingering in my body when Amor’s touch elated my sensitivity again. But I liked that proximity and how he didn’t let such an important moment for us turn awkward because of our wolves’ desperation. “Ria means river. River that keeps flowing no matter what’s in front of it. It overcomes every obstacle. If a path is blocked, it carves an alternative path. If there’s a boulder in front of it, it smashes through it or just gently passes by. It always carries destructive power, but still nurtures life by giving its everything. River keeps flowing. It keeps crossing all limits, all barriers to unite with the sea that is its destiny. I will keep flowing too until I meet my destiny. I promise…” Amor placed his index finger on
