THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS TWENTY-FIVE: REJECTION
KNOXI could not believe my ears.Not for a moment. All I could do was gaze at Alpha Arden. What he said sounded like nonsense to me, and I was more than ready to refuse his offer. “Did you hear me, Alpha Knox?” He called, smiling as he continued to eat. “We have come to take our daughter and hand Eleanor to you instead. What do you think of that?” At least he asked. I looked up, smiling. “Well, I think that's an impossible request you have there, Alpha Arden. It's very impossible to give back a woman we have already taken. I'm sure you know that but still came ahead to try your luck. And at the same time, I'm more than sorry to disappoint you.” “I'm afraid this is for your good, Alpha Knox,” I could now see the disappointment on his countenance. Not just his, but that of his daughter as well. “We have come for a good cause and not the wrong one.” What did he mean? Was there something about Sage I needed to know? I looked at his other daughter who was waiting for me to speak
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS TWENTY-SIX: REJECTION II
KNOXWe sat there, waiting for his arrival. At this point, I had run out of patience but I had to wait. Just wait for him to get here. And it seemed like it. When the hall gate opened, I sat up on my chair, more than ready to address the matter and dismiss these people. “My lord!” From a distance, he hailed. “Forgive me if I am late for this meeting.”“I was taking a bath when the guard came to call me. Good day, my lord.” Stopping in his tracks, he looked at our guests and then myself again. “I—”“Come on, Aegon,” I called. “You should take a seat. We might have something to talk about. Our guests asked for this and that is why you have been called.” He started walking once again, catching up with a seat not so far from me. I heaved a sigh, knowing fully well what was about to happen. I didn't need to ask before knowing he would reject the offer, especially when he'd said to me so many times that he loved the woman he was with. Why would he change his mind suddenly? How possibl
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS TWENTY-SEVEN: One Plot
ELEANOR Disappointment ran through my veins like blood. Anger could be seen on my countenance as well and one thing I wanted to do was rip off the hearts of those men. Why did they at some point think that they could make a mockery of us? Especially the Alpha who had it clearly written on his countenance like a birthmark. I settled down on the bed in the large room assigned to me. A sigh ran out of my mouth—more like a sigh of relief. This was the time for me to come up with something to do in order to be Aegon's wife. Did you see how he spoke to me back in that hall? None other way than the gentleman that he was. Instead of the usual anger that was plastered on my countenance, I had a smile on it instead. Aegon was such a handsome man. More than I would ever imagine. Back to the day of his wedding to that bitch I call a sister, he didn't look as fine as he currently did. Did that mean—No, I didn't want to think about the possibility. It should be the least of my busines
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS TWENTY-EIGHT: WORKS FOR ME
ELEANOR “I'll be right back,” the maid, who had fallen for the prank, turned around, forgetting to bow, and then rushed out in seconds, hitting the door hard. A smile came on my face. But it wasn't done yet. There was no guarantee that I would stay here and not leave. What was she going to do? What else besides passing the message to my Father who was waiting for me? Where was she going?!What was Father going to do?Sitting up on the bed, I heaved a sigh. I was tired of pretending already but what would these people have me do? Laying back, I looked at the door, pretending as I shook underneath the duvet once again. In a short while, the door opened. Instead of my Father just as I expected, the maid was running back into the room. “Alpha Arden will be here in a short while. But I wanted to know if there's something I can help you with while he is at it.” I opened my eyes slowly. “Wh—what did he say?” She shook her head. “He didn't say anything. But he is as shocked as I am
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS TWENTY-NINE: STAY
ELEANOR It was sweet. More than just sweet, in fact. All day, I stayed back in the massive room I was given, looking around and lying on the large bed. There was more than enough time on my watch, according to what I had seen. Daily, the Pack's doctor, Doctor Logan walked in and out of the room to check in on me and see how far the vitamins worked. Vitamins I seldom took. Again, there was a knock on the door today. As usual. It just depended on who exactly. “Who is it?” I looked at the door, gaining composure on the bed. “Who?” Snapping my fingers, I watched the door open and the guard who the Alpha had kept there for me, walking in with his head bowing. “My lady,” he called. “Doctor Logan is here to check in on you.” He explained while I nodded. “Shall I let him in?” “Yes, please. Let him in.” The door shut when he walked out. The next time it opened, it was the tall, handsome man in disguise of a doctor walking into the chamber. “Lady Eleanor!” He chattered. “A very g
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS THIRTY: Shock.
SAGEThe slightest idea of what was going on was far from me. It's been four days since they came into the Pack and until now, I had yet to understand what exactly was going on. “How are you, my love?” Today, Aegon walked into the room I moved into a while ago. I looked up from the bed where I was seated. “I was just about to eat something, Aegon,” I let out. “Good morning. How have you been? It's been a while since I saw you or heard from you?” “I'm so sorry, baby,” he hugged me to himself. “I miss you so much. I've just been helping my uncle with a lot and I didn't for one moment forget about a woman like you.” I nodded.It was understandable, after all. If only I had stayed back with him in that room, then there was no way I would not have all the answers I needed to myself. Was this a sign to move back into the room? “What is happening?” “What do you mean?” He let go of me, taking a seat on the bed. “Did you say you wanted to eat? How come you haven't? This is almost noon.
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS THIRTY-ONE: EVIDENCE
SAGEWhy? Why?!I stared at both men, not knowing what to say. What was there to say? Or rather, what reaction were they expecting from me to such news? I was not happy and could not fake happiness. “You're not saying anything, Sage,” one of them cut short my thoughts. “I don't know, but I don't want you to be silent about this. What do you have in mind?” That was Knox. I looked up and moped at both men before looking away. “I have no thoughts, my lord. You shouldn't worry about me for any reason. I'm just not—”“Come on,” Aegon cried. He reached for the bed and took a seat on it. “You needed to see me at that meeting, Sage. Now I wish that I took a recording of what I said to them. Wait—” he looked at his uncle, who was all smiles. “There's a camera everywhere in the Pack except for the rooms. We could show it to her if she wants.” The Alpha nodded. “At least, it's proof enough that we're on your side. Do you want to see it now?” Did I want to see it? Of course, I wanted t
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS THIRTY-TWO: PESTERING
ELEANOR Unable to stay back in my room all day, I took my bath and got ready to leave this space. With a smile on my countenance and pride in my heart, I reached the entrance of the room. It was late in the evening and the last time I checked, this was the time I took a walk back in The Moonclaw Pack—alone or with one of my brothers. Smiling, I waved at anybody I could. “Good evening, Lady Eleanor—” many maids referred to me this way and I loved it. For all that I knew and cared about, I was going to keep it this way for a long time and it'll be none other way—than staying back in this Pack for as long as I could. Catching up with the Pack's largest living room—the one connecting the living room and the outer part of the Pack, I stopped to admire the settings. There were just so many places I hadn't been to since I came into this pack. How many more haven't I seen yet? Catching up with the entrance, I turned around to look at the space, changing my mind and walking out final

THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS FORTY-ONE: TALK
SAGEOf all the things to hear him say, I didn't expect this. Not for a fleeting moment did I expect that, which caused me to look up so that I could see his face and be certain that this wasn't a set-up. “Aegon,” looking away, I looked at him once more. “Did I hear you correctly?” Smiling to cover up what I could feel inside of me, I asked again. “What did you say, my lord?” He adjusted on the bed once more, a worried look clouding his expression. “Forgive me, my lady. But don't you think we should make babies? Did you think that you would stay away from me for the rest of your life in this room?” “No, I didn't think that,” it was more of a genuine smile than a fake one. “You know fully well how willing I am to carry your child, or don't you? The truth remains that I wasn't expecting you to ask for it too soon.” He nodded. Standing on his feet also. “I understand and I am sorry if it came out too soon. But since we got married, we have yet to do what a husband and wife should d
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS FORTY: TALK TO THE PRINCE
SAGE Keenly, I watched him. I was in search of that look. The same one I had expected from Aegon. There was a look on his face. But it wasn't a look of disappointment. It was the kind that expressed shock and pity. “I'm so sorry.” What for?I looked away. “I'm just saying, my lord.”“I know,” he let out, walking briefly before stopping in his tracks. “But you shouldn't have a thing to worry about. The last time I checked, you're family more than she is and as a matter of fact, we would protect the both of you. From each other if possible. Do you understand?”He was the one who wasn't understanding. Was it so hard to understand that my sister—that bitch who I have no relationship whatsoever with, is a snake? How hard was it? I looked at the poor Alpha, recalling that the Prince had talked about him taking drugs a certain time when I was newly brought into the Pack. “Are you sick, my lord?” Shock on his countenance, he looked at me. “How do you mean? Do I look sick to you, Sag
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS THIRTY-NINE: TALK TO THE ALPHA.
KNOXNo one needed to tell me that the wife of my nephew was angry that I would do something like that. I, myself, wasn't expecting such a thing from myself but what would she have me do? Chase the woman away or rather, make it obvious that we wanted her out of the pack. During the day, I discussed with Doctor Logan who tried his best to convince me to get married. “Did my nephew talk you into talking to me about marriage, Logan? How many more times before you finally give up?” Sipping from the bottle, I looked at him again. “No amount of advice will make me change my mind. As a matter of fact, not even the Moon Goddess will make me change my mind. Don't you understand?” “My lord—”“No, Logan—” cutting him short, I got on my feet. “Why not tell me what the test results say? I need to know if my death is soon. This way, I shall lecture the young man on what to do when I am gone.”“The test results says the same thing.” I turned to face him, shutting my closet door. “No differenc
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS THIRTY-EIGHT: AGAINST HER EXPECTATIONS
SAGE Today was one of those days when it was mandatory that the royal family gather at the dining hall to eat. Waking up with a slight headache, I questioned myself on why I didn't sleep early the previous night. My gaze now drifted to the door when a hand knocked on it. That was Aella—I didn't need to ask. “Come on in already—” I cried. “The door is opened.” In a moment, it was pushed open. “Good morning, my Lady,” with a bow, she greeted. “It is a pleasant surprise to see your door open for the first time while you sleep. Is there a reason for that?”“Get me off this bed and don't ask silly questions.”“Oh, my lady,” she walked closer. “I should have known you forgot to do the locking and that's why your door is unlocked. What shall I do for you?” “Aella!” Holding back my laughter, I let her help me up. “They'll be waiting at the dining hall by now in case you've forgotten. Why not concentrate on dressing me up rather than gossiping about why I forgot to lock my door?” “Apol
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS THIRTY-SEVEN: CONFESSION
SAGEThat wasn't so shocking to hear. What did I expect from a man as strong as Knox and the rest of his members? Of course, they have to have ended lives long before my existence in the pack—and maybe the world in general. Now was my turn to speak, with a nod that I gave, I sat up, and fed Aegon with a spoonful of the meal. “I have heard more than enough tales about the Alpha, and I'm certain that this strength applies to you.” He chuckled. “What?” I fed him again. “Nothing, my lady. It's just—” He trailed off, taking it up once more. “I am a strong man. In the history and existence of this pack, I don't think that there's been a weak man. I am a strong man but my uncle doesn't want me involved in things like that. According to him, I may resume fighting as soon as I mount his throne as the next Alpha.” That was a relief. From the onset of my life, I had wanted a strong man for my husband, but I didn't want him with so much blood on his hands and that's just what I discovered
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS THIRTY-SIX: STAY WITH ME
SAGEI looked at Aella who looked at me. The spoon hung in her hand, causing me to almost laugh but nothing was funny. Not when she told me about the rules of this pack. “Hi, Aegon—”“What is going on here?” Aegon, who was more interested in what was happening, walked into the room with the same questioning gaze plastered on his countenance. “Don't you know the rules any longer, Aella?” “I do,” she dropped the spoon. “My lady insisted that I join her, so I did. I'm sorry, Prince Aegon.” Aegon looked at me. “Did you ask her to join you?”“Yes,” I dropped my spoon as well. “She's not going to be here with me if I don't ask her to. And she tried refusing but I didn't let it happen because I needed company also. I'm sorry, Prince Aegon.” He nodded. “You can continue your eating.”Aella shook her head. “Go on, Aella. I have already asked you.” She took a seat again, of course after bowing to the Prince and maybe me. “Thank you.” The new week came in a hurry. With a smile on my c
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS THIRTY-FIVE: CONFRONTATION
SAGE She burst out laughing, leaving me wondering what exactly I said that was funny. Or was this her coping mechanism? I moped at Eleanor, not for a moment taking my gaze off her. “You have yet to answer my question.” “What question?” She walked closer. Prideful. “Are you here to ask if it's the same man who rejected me right in front of Father I have come to take? Or do you have something else to ask me?” Now stopping right in my face. No fear. No respect. Did this bitch forget that this Pack was now my home and I had a say on whether she would stay or not? Moping at a small girl who I happened to be taller than, I couldn't help, but smile. “Sister—” “Yes!” Now I cut her short, my tone increasing. “I'm asking you that same question. What did you say you have come to take? A man you own, is it not? And now that I ask if it's the same man who rejected you right in the presence of your family and my new family, why do you choose not to answer? Or have you go
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS THIRTY-FOUR: A LITTLE CONFRONTATION
SAGEIt was another weekend—a day to finally walk out of my chamber whether or not I wanted to. Moping at my figure in the royal mirror, I wondered if it was right to refuse to leave my chamber on this day. Maybe I could tell Aella about how tired I was or maybe sick. No, I shook my head in refusal. Why should I be scared? For all that I knew, it was Eleanor who should be scared of me and not the other way around. Leaving the mirror area completely, I walked back to the bed where I took a seat. Moments later, I was lying on it with thoughts of what the time could be and this was the point where I got to start preparing. Why was Aella not here yet? Standing on my feet, I reached the closet where I took out my towel. In moments, I was reaching for the bathroom. I didn't want to be bathed by the lady so it was better I did it myself before she would make it to the chamber with arguments of how it's her duty and not mine. After a long while in the bathroom, I walked out with water
THE SILVER HEAD LUNA; WHEN HER WOLF HOWLS THIRTY-THREE: ANGER
ELEANOR I watched him leave my side, his large back swinging from side to side while Anger had become my name. How could he refuse me a simple favor? Why was this man being difficult? Again, the wolves made a noise and cheered their Alpha when he reached the spot. The Alpha himself smiled, waving back at them, and for once, looked in my direction before finally leaving my sight. Fuck him! After being all nice to him, I get this in return. How could he do a thing like this to me? I was still moping at him even though he wasn't there, clearly angry that he would even walk out on me. Where was such a thing done?When I realized I was frowning too much, I changed it to a smile and picked up the large bowl from the ground where it was. Just then, a male wolf made to pass by me but I stopped him before he would get to wherever it was he was headed to. “Can I have a word with you?” He bowed. “Yes, my lady. What can I do for you?” I then looked around me. “Where can I keep this bowl o
