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

[Zeve’s POV]“Do you, Zeve, take Chaz Enver as your groom and mate for life?”“I do.”I held my gaze low under the translucent white veil. It was the day, the moments I had desired for twenty-two years of my existence.I glanced at Chaz, my mate. The person I loved the most. Our eyes met, and I smiled faintly.The night I had been waiting for — the night when Chaz would finally claim me as his and complete our fated union. I had been crushing on him since we were kids. Once, he asked me to play with him in the palace’s garden. I don’t remember what we played or what we talked about. But I remember I felt the best when I was with him. He was warm and the sparks I felt from him were irresistible. He was the best thing that could happen to me.But then he left.It was a difficult twenty-two years for me. I was a kid of rogues and thanks to luna Ava Enver; I could survive.Even though she accepted me in the pack, others didn’t because I was different.They bullied me for being different —

[Zeve’s POV] His every step echoed in the cave. I kept my eyes shut, hoping the darkness would shield me again, but even the darkness favoured him. I opened my eyes. His face was inches away from mine. I pressed my back against the wall. The cave was lit with a torch he fixed on the wall. “Am I a part of your prayers?” He said, and I got gooseflesh all over my body. He grabbed my hand. I briskly took it back. I peered into his unreadable and mysterious eyes. Whimpering, I shut my eyes. “Zeve…” He called out my name in a voice deeper than the darkness of the cave. My name resonated in the cave before fading away. “Zeve means wolf who filters.” I opened my eyes as his gaze bound mine. That was the first time I had heard someone decipher the meaning of my name. Shadow eclipsed half of his face while the other illuminated in the flickering yellow light from the torch. He leaned closer to my neck, placed his lips inches away from my ear, and whispered. “You lost the game, Zeve. So

[Zeve's POV]In a hurry, I had picked up a sheer white gown.An entire wall being used as a mirror. I looked at my reflection in the mirror in the washroom.The only material covering my body was the white silk around my breasts and tight white fabric from my hips to my thighs. Rest was all net and laces flowing over my body, covering absolutely nothing.“What kind of dress is this? Why is everything going wrong today? Who in their right mind would make a gown like this?” I sighed at my reflection.If I go out looking like this, I don’t know what he might... No. No. I need some other gown. This barely covers my body. I thought.My wedding gown was filthy and bloodstained. I didn’t want to wear it again — ever again.I placed my hand on my cleavage and looked around. There was a man’s bathrobe.“Maybe Amor used it. Tsk! I can’t use it.” I shook my head. It was believed that only married couples shared the same bathrobes.No, but he changed into some other room. Maybe this room was not u

[Zeve’s POV]I reluctantly sat on the carriage with him. Clenching my gown into my fists. All the way, I didn’t look at him. Not even once, but I could feel his gaze on me. All the time.The carriage stopped. I waited for a long time for someone to open the door from outside or for him to move, but nothing happened. I tried to open the door, but it was locked.“What do you want now?” I scowled, looking at him. “Waiting for you to look into my eyes.” He shrugged. “Now we can go. Open the door,” he said, and the valet opened the door. He got down first and offered his hand to help me get down.I landed a quick gaze at him and helped myself down on my own.He took back his hand to himself with a faint chuckle.In front of me was a humongous palace decorated with lights from the precinct to the garden to the rooftop. I had never seen such a vast palace before. Honestly, I had seen nothing outside my pack.So almost everything was new to me. Walking through the precinct to the palace, I

[Zeve’s POV] Amor stretched out his palm before me, “may I have the honour to dance with you?” He asked. I ignored him like he had been ignoring me. Lady Ella stood in front of him. “You may not dance with her. Not until you tell me what you did to her for her to be this scared. She was literally trembling…” She hadn’t even finished speaking when Amor grabbed my wrist and pulled me in. In no time, my body collided with his. He held my hand and looked at lady Ella. “Mother, I will take her with me for a moment.” He dragged me upstairs. I glanced at lady Ella, who looked enraged by his behaviour. He left my hand only when we reached the balcony. Panting, I looked at him, tensing my eyebrows. He clenched and unclenched his jaws, stepping closer to me as I stepped back. “Stop acting in front of my mother and my family. Stop pretending to be timid and helpless. Stop trying to gain sympathy. I have seen many treacherous women like that, but you seem to be worse than all of them.”

[Zeve’s POV] My chest hurts. My head hurts. I snapped open my eyes with a sharp gasp. Panting, I looked at Amor. His hands were on my chest while he straddled my waist. I pushed him on the other side and got down from the bed in a hurry. “What the hell are you doing?” I yelled at him, covering my chest with my hands. He looked behind me and said, “I don’t think she is dying any time soon.” I turned back with a jolt, and Lucella stood there gaping at me. She had a pestle in her hand and a few herbs in her other hand. “You… are you ok?” she asked as if she was expecting me to not be ok. My clothes were loosely draped around my body. I gathered them and held them together over my chest. I was trying to remember what had happened after the ball, but couldn’t. I stepped back until my back was against the wall. “Zeve. It’s not what you think it is. Although it may look like that, but trust me, it’s not. Amor was giving you chest compressions because you had stopped breathing for o

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

[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

[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

[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
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
