The Alpha King's Contract Luna Chapter 11
~EdwardThe moment we sat down and the silver clatter of cutlery began echoing around the room, I could feel it—the weight of my mother’s glare. She sat poised at the far end of the table, her fingers wrapped delicately around a teacup as if she hadn’t already burnt holes through my skull with her eyes.I didn’t even flinch.Instead, I smiled. Wide. Annoyingly pleasant.I knew she hated that.Let her simmer in her royal rage. She wanted a Luna for my coronation, and I brought her one. A beautiful, strong, grounded woman who hadn’t bat an eye despite the coldest welcome possible. What was their damn problem now?Beside me, Ava sat stiffly. Her back was straight, hands in her lap. Her eyes tried not to wander but I saw her sneak a glance at Lila, who had been stirring her tea for three minutes straight. The girl was pretending she didn’t notice us.Spoiler: she did.The tension was a living, breathing beast in the room. Only the elders seemed to eat comfortably, scooping food onto their

~AvaI stood by the balcony rail, the wind brushing gently across my skin. Edward turned to face me, his eyes less stern than they were at the dining table. “So…” he began, his tone lighter, “you never really told me about your family.”My stomach clenched.“Your aunt and uncle,” he added. “Were they the ones who raised you? Where were your parents?”The shift in my mood was instant—like a blade had been twisted inside me. I could still see my brother Adrian's smile in my memory. That annoying half-smile that meant he was about to tease me about something. My throat tightened.I looked away, eyes stinging. “I don't want to talk about it,” I said, sharper than I meant to.Edward’s brows rose. “What?”“I said I don’t want to talk about it,” I repeated, my voice hard. “I’d appreciate if you never tried bringing it up again.”The silence between us shifted. It turned cold. Thick with discomfort.Edward’s face went blank for a moment, then hardened. “No disrespect, Luna,” he said quietly,

~Edward The moon hung low in the sky, casting silver shadows across the garden paths. I walked slowly, my hands tucked behind my back, breathing in the scent of night-blooming jasmine. The garden was quiet, save for the occasional rustle of leaves in the breeze. This was where I came when I needed to think, when the burden of the crown pressed a little too tightly against my temples. I sighed, pausing beside a marble bench, letting my gaze drift to the stars above. “Leona,” I called, spotting one of the senior maids walking toward the east wing.She turned immediately, bowing low. “Yes, Your Majesty?”“Send someone to fetch Ava. Tell her I want to see her in the garden.”“At once, sire.”She disappeared, and I resumed my walk, trailing fingers along the rose hedges. It was almost two hours before I heard soft footsteps behind me.“Alpha,” came a quiet voice.I turned slowly.There she was. Ava.She bowed her head slightly, her hands clasped awkwardly in front of her. She looked ner

~AvaI didn’t know when I drifted off. Maybe it was right after the bath, or maybe after I finished crying on the softest damn pillow I’d ever laid my head on. Either way, I was asleep, deep asleep… but not peaceful. My body rested, but my heart didn’t. I was missing my brother, Aiden, or maybe this new life was still overwhelming to me.Tears slipped down the side of my face even in sleep. I knew I was dreaming, but it felt so real.He was there.Aiden.He stood under a soft, silver glow, and everything around him sparkled like stars had melted and poured into the grass. He looked older, calmer. The same dark curls, same dimpled grin, only... brighter. There was this strange warmth around him, like the Moon Goddess herself was holding him.“Aiden,” I breathed.He laughed, throwing his arms open. “It took you long enough to visit.”My heart ached. I ran into his arms and felt the exact way I used to feel when we were younger—safe. Complete. Like I wasn’t alone anymore. But as I looked

~EdwardMy head was spinning.I closed the door behind Ava and just stood there for a second, my back against the wood, staring into the air like an idiot. Then I started pacing.Back and forth.Back and forth.This whole mess had felt manageable in the beginning. A simple white lie to keep my mother off my back. “She’s the daughter of Alpha Garry from Moonstone Ridge.” That sentence had slipped out so casually that I hadn’t even considered the consequences. And now?Now my mother wanted to visit them.Visit a pack Ava didn’t belong to. Visit people who weren’t her parents. Visit a story that didn’t exist.“Shit,” I muttered, dragging a hand through my hair.I couldn’t think straight. My mother wasn’t just nosy—she was thorough. If something felt off, she’d find it. She’d smell it like blood in the water.I turned sharply when Ava’s voice cut through my panic.“Edward,” she said, stepping closer. “I don’t have much time, your mom is expecting me downstairs any minute now.”I nodded qu

~AvaThe Full Moon Festival was one of my favorite times of the year. The festival grounds sparkled under the silver glow of the moon, lanterns swaying gently in the evening breeze. Music and laughter filled the air as the pack danced and feasted, honoring the goddess’s blessing. But amidst the celebration, I found myself at the edge of it all, sitting quietly at a table with my drink in hand.I scanned the crowd for Aiden, my twin brother. He was supposed to stay close, but knowing him, he was probably sneaking off for more food or causing some harmless mischief.The brief moment of peace didn’t last long. A cold splash hit my dress, making me gasp.“Oh, oops!” came a shrill voice. I looked up to see Sasha, one of the more obnoxious girls in the pack, holding an empty glass with an unapologetic smirk. “Didn’t see you there.”“Should’ve known the omegas would show up,” she added loudly. “Guess they’re letting everyone into the Full Moon Festival these days.”Heat rushed to my cheeks,

~AvaThe neon lights of the club flickered like a beacon, casting a hazy glow over the darkened street. I forced Nimueh’s feet to slow as I caught sight of it, making her growl low in my head. “Ava, stop.” “No,” I whispered under my breath, my voice barely audible over the muffled bass of music that seeped from the club's walls. “This isn’t safe,” Nimueh pressed, her voice firm yet tinged with concern. “You’re hurting and vulnerable tonight. Let’s go home. At least your brother can make you feel better.” My chest tightened at her suggestion. The thought of going back to my uncle’s house, seeing Riley there… it would break me all over again. “No,” I snapped aloud this time, drawing a curious glance from a passerby. “I’m not going back. I need time away—from home, from them, from everything.” “We can’t keep running, Ava. It’s not healthy.” Nimueh’s voice softened, hesitating for a moment before sighing in defeat. “Fine. But this doesn’t feel right.” “Nothing feels right anym

~AvaI stood by the door of the Aston Martin, my eyes locked on the sleek, powerful car as if it might swallow me whole. My stomach fluttered, a strange mix of excitement and nervousness swirling inside me. I wasn’t used to talking to strangers. What if he was dangerous?He smoothly slid out of the driver's seat, his movements effortless, and walked toward me with a confidence that made everything else around him seem to fade. When he stopped just a few feet away, his piercing gaze met mine, steady, waiting."You okay?" His voice was low, carrying a hint of amusement that made my insides twist.I swallowed, trying to steady my breath. "I’m fine," I muttered, barely above a whisper.He chuckled, misinterpreting my discomfort. "It’s okay," he said, leaning against the car with a warm smile. "I know it’s overwhelming. You probably don’t even know how to open the door, huh?"I shot him a glare. "I’m not that clueless," I snapped back, my voice stronger than I felt.But then... that smile.

~AvaThe legal advisor looked like he came straight out of a magazine. Crisp black suit, slick hair, and a pair of glasses that made him look way too serious. He walked into my room like he owned the place, carrying a black leather folder like it held secrets from the moon goddess herself."Miss Ava," he said, with a polite bow of the head. "These are the documents Alpha Edward asked me to deliver. Please go through them thoroughly. I'll be here in case you have any questions."He handed me the folder and moved towards the cream-colored chair across from me. He sat like he was settling into a board meeting, legs crossed, one hand resting on his knee, the other adjusting his glasses.I nodded and gave him a small smile. "Alright. I'll read through it."My heart was already thudding in my chest. I hadn’t even opened the file yet, and my palms were slightly sweaty. I pulled open the flap and laid the document on the table. It looked intimidating, with words running across pages like a ma

~EdwardI could barely focus.The room was filled with voices—deep ones, tired ones, old ones—every single one of them trying to sound important as they spoke about my upcoming coronation. The council of elders sat around the grand oak table, each man with his scrolls, robes, and opinions. But my mind wasn’t in the room. My fingers itched to check my phone. My heart had been restless since Daphne called yesterday.Mildred.Just hearing her name had ripped something wide open inside of me. I’d barely slept. I kept wondering if Daphne was playing one of her ridiculous games again. But what if… what if she wasn’t?“…Your Highness?” Elder Thompson’s gruff voice cut through the fog in my head.I blinked and sat up straighter. “Yes?”“We were asking when you plan to set the date for the coronation. The people are asking. The Luna needs to be introduced as well—”“I’ll communicate that later,” I said, a little sharper than I intended. “Meeting adjourned.”“But, Your Highness—”“I said, later

~EdwardDinner at the palace was always the same.Grand.Unnecessarily extravagant.I sat at the long mahogany table, its glossy surface reflecting the golden chandelier lights above. The walls of the dining hall were draped in red velvet, and the scent of roasted meat, garlic, and fresh herbs danced around the air like a spell.Maids moved swiftly—almost like shadows—as they brought in dish after dish: roasted duck glazed in honey, buttery mashed potatoes with truffle oil, steamed asparagus, spiced rice, bowls of mixed vegetables, golden-crusted pies, and fresh bread with herb butter melting into it. It was a feast for a dozen people.Yet only three of us were at the table.My mother sat at the head, regal and sharp-eyed in her silk gown, her posture as perfect as ever. My sister, Lila, twirled her fork around her salad, too busy inspecting her reflection in a silver spoon to notice the effort put into the meal.I stopped mid-bite."Why cook such large portions of food if it's just t

~AvaI paced the length of the room for the hundredth time, my bare feet making no sound against the soft rug. My thoughts were loud enough. Was this really the best choice? Signing a contract to be the Luna of a man I barely knew… all for revenge?I paused, catching my reflection in the mirror across the room.I looked broken. Hair messy. Eyes tired. Hollow. There were no sparkles in them anymore. No joy. Just pain wrapped in grief. I ran my fingers over my cheeks, wiping away the silent tears. What was left of me, really?I had no home to return to. No family. My brother was gone. Murdered. And the world, as usual, moved on like nothing happened.If I turned down Edward’s offer, I’d be back on the streets. Alone. Vulnerable. And more depressed than I already was. But if I accepted… there was a chance. A real chance. Revenge wasn’t peace, but it was something. Something to hold on to.I took a deep breath and marched to the door. He told me to think about it. Well, I had. And I had m
