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
Rejected to be His Luna 137. Be prepared
[Zeve’s POV] Time flew by as my training upgraded every day. Amor taught me skills and Arki helped me refine them and fit them into my muscle memories. Arki and I had become good friends. Even so, he never talked informally to me and strangely, he hadn’t touched me once. Not even by mistake. He followed Amor’s orders gracefully. He was a true knight in all aspects. He told me how he was working to support his younger sister, who also wanted to become a knight. They lost their parents when he was too young and had to live in slums until he joined the knights. He inspired his sister, and she was adamant about following in his footsteps. Even though female candidates weren’t allowed to join the royal knights, he never told her she couldn’t. He always said that dreams are shown to people who have the ability to bring them to reality. All they need to do is believe in their dreams, work on it and allow their failures and patience to do the rest. The one who wins is not the one who
Rejected to be His Luna 138. Attack on the ship
[Zeve’s POV] “Luna!” Morfan dashed to me with Arki and the other knights. “Morfan! What’s going on?” I asked breathlessly. “We haven’t been able to identify their identity yet, luna. Your safety is our priority…” Morfan stopped speaking and tensed his brows, looking at the deck. Morfan looked at Arki and the other knights, who tensed their faces. “What happened?” I asked, annoyingly. “Luna. Alpha needs me on the front lines. I have to go. Knight! Protect luna at all costs…” “Alpha? Where is Amor? He is ok, right?” I asked, my heart pulsating wildly against my ribs. “Luna. Our alpha can’t be defeated that easily. Of course, he is alright. It’s just that he needs reinforcements to nullify the attack. We will get over this attack safely. Please evacuate with the royal family immediately,” Morfan said before dashing to the deck. Arki stepped closer to me. “I have got the boats ready for you and the royal family, your highness.” “Where is alpha?” I asked. “He is in the bow area
Rejected to be His Luna 139. Struggling through
[Zeve’s POV] I lunged at them, slashing my sword. Both of them jumped above me and landed behind me. They had no weapons and were fighting with bare talons. Last time they had swords, but this time their hands were deadlier than the swords. They could tear off Arki’s hands so easily. I had to be careful with those talons. The enemy was becoming stronger while I was waiting for a miracle to happen that would make me happy. Not even realising that happiness was not something made for me. That would be something I wouldn’t search for anymore in my life. Happiness was only an illusion, not the reality. ‘Stop listening to the song. It’s manipulating you.’ “I wish I could shut my ears and stop listening while… defending myself from these jerks!” I murmured, dodging the two as they attacked together. ‘Use me!’ No. Not you. Not now. The knights are returning. I sense their scent. I need my wolf’s strength, not yours. ‘Use the Enver sword skills.’ I widened my eyes when the voice w
Rejected to be His Luna 140. Don't die
[Zeve’s POV] Panting, I gulped, staring into his stoic eyes that were fixated on me. His hair and clothes fluttered violently with the sails as he effortlessly stood on the wooden supports, completely unbothered by the chaos on the ship. I shut my eyes as another strong squall tore past me, pushing the attackers further back. Did he see me use magic? How long has he been there? Damn it! I kept resisting this power all my life and just when I used it a little, out of everyone in this universe, Hikari had to be there. I gritted my teeth. What the heck should I do now? The only way for me was to jump into the sea, but then there was that creepy, alluring siren song. I knew it was another trap, probably the real trap. “Damn it!” I groaned, gritting my teeth. I was out of breath, and those fuckers wouldn’t stop coming. More than those attackers and the attack, I was worried about Hikari’s presence. He saw me use magic. He will expose me. Everything will be repeated. T
Rejected to be His Luna 141. Warm breeze in the sea
[Zeve’s POV] Hikari’s voice completely cut off the whispers I was hearing. Maybe I was seeing things because of asphyxiation. A white dragon that felt like a warm breeze snaked around my whole body as I hovered in the sea’s depth. Hikari? I reached out my hand to him. Hikari held my wrist that floated away from my body and yanked me. My body floated to him as he blanketed his arms around my waist and pulled me to his chest. His hands slid on my back and under my knees. His warmth blanketed my cold body. He was warm, serene, like a warm blanket near a bonfire on a snowy night. Something so surreal, as if the life I had given up on was returning to me. My heavy eyelids slowly shut as Hikari’s face blurred. It felt — safe. My eyes opened to a quiet sound of water dripping on a calm water surface, like nature played a lullaby. The water was the harp, and the winds were the fingers that tenderly plucked its strings. Hikari’s kimono coat was wrapped around my body while he c
Rejected to be His Luna 142. A curse called love
[Amor’s POV] I wiped off the sweats over my lips and nose. “No. She can’t… she’s ok. She has to be…” I mumbled. Maybe she evacuated with the others. Maybe I am overthinking. Yeah. She must have reached the shore by now. Yes. But why can’t I feel her scent? Even if she was on the shore, I should get her scent… I could barely breathe when all my senses were looking for her. Her scent. Her voice. Her breaths. Her heartbeats. Anything… anything that could help me find her. That could assure me she was safe. “Zeve!” I cried out. I kept calling out to her frantically, searching for her everywhere on the ship. I even looked among the dead, but soon shook off those grim thoughts. “ZEVE!” I roared. I tried to mind-link her. It failed. My frenzied steps halted as a thought hit. “Who created the firestorm?” It was then I met Arki and the other knights. They informed me about Zeve’s orders. I almost killed them for not following my orders, but I didn’t have time to waste on t
Rejected to be His Luna 143. I can't be your luna
[Amor’s POV] Lucella checked on Zeve. She said that Zeve wasn’t in a condition to travel and we should stop by the seaside palace near the harbor. Everyone was tired and needed rest. I myself was not in a condition to carry out a journey to the capital smoothly. With Zeve still unconscious, I wasn’t feeling good about nothing at all. I knew she created the firestorm and maybe the magic took a toll on her body like any other power. On that she drowned and I don’t know what manipulating voice Hikari was talking about, but it surely contributed to Zeve’s current state. Our ship reached the shore. I ordered a royal cremation of the dead through mind-link. The royal family was already in the palace, resting. All the excitement had turned into a grim atmosphere. Everyone was recovering from the attack. We were still on the ship. I reluctantly looked around the ship matters and the report on the death of the knights, the injured, and the survivors. Once Lucella had checked on Zev

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

It was unbearably cold.That time, that’s all I felt. A cold that made my spine shiver.I wanted to feel, but how?Everything I locked up within me and in the magic and key core came back.It all came back, but I think it never left in the first place.Even after hundreds of years, I could still feel her presence by the s
Rejected to be His Luna 288. Eternal curse
[Zeve’s POV]“Mother, stop!” Killian yelled.“Venus, calm down… we can make things right, ok? Trust me. 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
Rejected to be His Luna 287. Nightmares
[Zeve’s POV]‘I see him burning and these nightmares just don’t stop. Day after day, it’s always the same thing. I try to save him, but the flames always find their way to him. 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
Rejected to be His Luna 286. Cutting the curse
[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
Rejected to be His Luna 285. Luna he forgot
[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
Rejected to be His Luna 284. The war has begun
[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. The wolves of darker colours were standing on the front lines and surrounded the training grounds.The soldiers created a wall of shields on either side of the criminals’ p

[Zeve’s POV]“Should I take off this gown now?” Celeste asked, walking to me and then standing beside me as we peered at the air where Killian stood seconds ago.I looked at Celeste and caressed her cheek. “I know it’s uncomfortable, sweetie, but wait a little, hmm?”Celeste looked into my eyes and nodded once.“You did a good job. 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. I want my child to be brave, and for that, I have to be braver today. I am going to be a mother
