**Damon's POV**I sat in the dungeon, my back resting on the wall as I reminisced over what happened a few moments ago. Only I and the maid knew what really happened but she pinned everything on me and is not helping matters.Now that things are finally working out between me and Elora, this happened.“I love you, Elora, and I would never hurt you. Please know that.” I sighed and buried my face in my legs as I tried to think of ways out of this situation.I heard something creak open like the door and heard footsteps. I couldn't guess who the person was but the familiar scent brought one person to mind.“Elora,” I muttered and looked up to see her standing in front of the cell. I quickly stood to my feet and rushed to her. “Elora, why don't you want to believe me? I know it's something you saw with your two eyes, but you have to know that I would never do anything that would hurt you.” I tried to explain things to her.She sighed. “Damon, it's pretty hard to believe, you know,” She s
**Author's POV**“What trap are you talking about, Elora?” Damon asked.“When this incident happened, I went to the garden and I met Elder Blake. I was obviously cursing at you and reigning different kinds of insults on you. Elder Blake Spoke to me and I understood him, but I needed to find out by myself that you're innocent. That's why I called the meeting and asked for you to be thrown to the dungeon,” She glared at the maid in front of her. “I knew that if I threw you in there, she would come to mock you and if not mock you, a conversation might ensue between the two of you which would in turn lead me to the truth. So when I came to you, I was about to leave when I heard footsteps, so I hid and listened to everything.” She revealed and Damon couldn't be more grateful for her smartness.“Thank goodness you found out!” Damon exclaimed and stood to his feet.“I'm sorry for doubting you, Damon. I'm really sorry,” She apologized and faced the maid, her eyes holding nothing but anger and
“I still don't think it's a good idea for you to get involved in things like war and stuff.” He argued.“Damon, I am their Luna. It is my duty to protect everyone. It's my duty to make sure the pack and everyone in it is safe.” She sighed.“I know and that's why you have me as a beta. That's why I'm by your side; to fight the battles and the war for you — to protect the pack for you.” He tried to dissuade her.“I want to be part of that too. I can't just sit and watch someone else do the work for me. I don't want to be a weak Luna who depends on her beta to get everything done,” She said, remembering what Gina had said about Damon always getting in the way. “I have to do this, Damon and you're the only one I trust that can help me.” She looked at him with pleading eyes.Damon sighed. “I understand what you mean, Elora. It's just that…” He trailed off, sighing again. “I don't want you to get hurt. I don't want anything to happen to you, mate. If you do this, there's no doubt that you'd
**Damon's POV**I swung on the chair in the office as I looked at the business proposal sent by Alpha Norman of Shadow Clan Pack. From my research, he was a very powerful Alpha and was a business associate with Elora's father before his death.I had gone through his profile and also did some research. He was a good man, and wasn't involved in any fraudulent activities like the miscreants the late Alpha worked with before.Elora walked in, looking exhausted. I smiled at her. “Why do you look like you just got beaten by a bear?” I asked.She walked to where I sat and slumped on my body. “I'm so tired.”“It's only 11am.” I laughed and she pouted.“So? Can't you see I'm not in the mood for stress today?” She rolled her eyes cutely. “I've been working on some files brought in about Zora's father since morning and haven't had the time to eat or rest.”I smiled and made her sit on my lap. She wrapped her hands around my neck. “So, what do you want to eat?” I asked.“You,” She replied and my
**Author's POV**As they sat in the throne room, discussing about the business proposal, Damon was angry that Elora was giving Alpha Norman all her attention.The worst part was that Alpha Norman wouldn't stop looking at her especially whenever she speaks. He felt Alpha Norman was crossing boundaries and might be interested in Elora which got him scared.“So, now that we've come to a reasonable conclusion, when do you think we should commence?” He asked and Elora turned to face Damon.“You can ask him. He calls the shots around here.” She winked at him but he didn't smile. He was angry at her for not telling Alpha Norman that he was her mate, and also angry that she didn't notice Alpha Norman's advances.He sighed. “Next week will be fine. Excuse me.” He stood up and left for Elora's room.Elora wondered what had come over him. Alpha Norman smiled at her.“Totally unrelated. I've been looking at you and—”“Um… Alpha Norman?” She called, already knowing what he was going to say. She ha
THE NEXT MORNINGElora awoke and didn't find Damon in bed. She looked around, rubbing her eyes and wondering where he had gone to.She was about to get down from the bed when the door opened and he entered, holding a tray of food.“You're awake!” He smiled and placed it before her on the bed.Elora was shocked. “Breakfast in bed? Now that's romantic.” She smiled.Damon chuckled. “You need strength because training starts today.”She nodded with a smile and took the fork to eat but he collected it from her.“I'll feed you.” He said and she beamed.As he fed her, Elora couldn't be more grateful to the moon goddess for her help. Her life had started out not quite well, and suddenly everything changed after her rebirth. Damon came into her life, and now he's making her go crazy for him. She loved him so much.When she was done eating, they bath together and headed out to train but two guards ran to meet them. Elora recognized them as the guards she sent to look for Zora and Lucien.“Did y
**Zora's POV**I looked around the room they made ready for us and a smile found its way to my lips. I was finally back to living that luxurious life I've always wanted and also to get my revenge while at it.Melissa is a genius for changing our facial features. Who knew Elora could be fooled this way?Me? Zena? Oh gosh, I love that name.“We actually pulled this off, Zora. I can't believe she fell for it.” Lucien clapped his hands like a baby who just got handed a candy.“Shut up your mouth, you disgusting ingrate!” I snapped at him. “Don't you make that mistake of calling me Zora again. The walls have ears. Be mindful of whatever you say!” He nodded. “I'm sorry. I was just overexcited.”“Keep your over excitement for when we finally get our revenge. No slacking. We have to find a way to earn her trust because I'm sure Damon doesn't trust us one bit, but if we're able to get Elora over to our side, Damon wouldn't be a problem.” I smirked as I thought of a suitable plan.“How are you
**Elora's POV**“You can do better, come on, hit me.” Damon said as I tried to punch him. I was struggling to land a blow on him, but he kept dodging my strikes like they were nothing. He seemed to be able to predict my every move, and he kept countering my attacks without even breaking a sweat. I was annoyed because I knew I was putting in a lot of effort but he literally countered every move I made.It was both frustrating and tiring at the same time. I was determined to land a hit on him, but it seemed impossible.“You're not giving it your all. Come on, I know you can do better than this.” He urged me, but I could sense teasing in his tone.I gritted my teeth and stilled myself, determined to show him what I was capable of. I gathered all my strength and went in for another attack, this time putting all my energy into it. My fist flew through the air with lightning speed, and for a moment I thought I had caught him off guard, but to my surprise, he caught my fist in his hand and
