Selene’s POV

It was chilly outside, the sun had gone down, and everywhere was mostly dark. The pack members had lit a bonfire in the middle of tents but it did so little for me, as I was mostly isolated.

All I had to keep my company were the sounds of gossip told by ladies outside, the cheers of children playing with each other, and a flickering light that casted shadows. I let my imagination wander as I tried to form creatures with shadows.

I formed monsters with horns with my fingers, I made them eat, moved them around, then tried to make them mimic the voices of the ladies laughing and talking outside, but it did so little for me, it barely made me laugh, no matter what I did, it wasn't just fun at all.

I sighed then laid back on the floor, contemplating why Lucian wasn't back yet, or why he chose to bring me into his pack as a rogue? And what was taking them so long at the other packs, the people already had so much hope in him, it would be hard to convince them to look arou

  • The Disabled Luna’s Vengeance    Chapter 13

    Selene's POV I knew I would be damned if I didn’t pull away. His fingers tightened around my waist, pulling me in closer, and every fiber of my being screamed to end this—now. I closed my eyes and broke the kiss. He didn’t let go easily. His lips brushed my forehead in a soft, lingering kiss that made me tremble.“I thought I had lost you,” he murmured, his voice rough, and I could feel the weight of his words. “I thought I would never see you again.”I was stunned. Confused. I had no idea what was happening or why he seemed to adore me all of a sudden. This was our third meeting in six years. And the first two times had been in the dungeon when I was dying. Well, the current situation isn’t any better... It just made no sense. This wasn’t Lucian. He was not supposed to show any sympathy towards me at all.I studied his face carefully, searching for answers. He looked dizzy and exhausted, still wearing the remnants of his battle with injury. Though his bruises had healed, he didn’t l

    Lucian’s POV “Ooh…” She climaxed while I was stroking her; my body shuddered as I felt ripples of flames spiral down my body; the sound of her low melodious moan was the bane of my existence. I had never felt anything as intense as staying close to her or being inside of her.I didn’t want to leave her, but she was as fluid as the air around me; she slipped away from me so swiftly and diligently that I tried to grab her, but she slid through my fingers like air.“Selene, come back, Selene! Selene!!!”I shot up from the bed, my heart hammering in my chest. My frantic gaze scanned the room, desperately trying to anchor myself in reality. There was no one here.I collapsed back onto the bed, my body heavy with exhaustion.“It was just a dream,” I muttered under my breath, scolding myself.She was getting into my head; I could feel it. It was far too early to be rattled by her, but my mind couldn’t seem to quiet down. What the hell was wrong with me? I had come too far to let a damn bond

    Lucian’s POV So many questions taunted my mind. I wanted to ask her what she saw or if I had embarrassed myself in any way, but I couldn’t get myself to do it; it was unnecessary.I had to believe if I had shown any sign of weirdness, she would have told me already. I refused to let her get under my skin, so I straightened my clothes, then stood gallantly, pretending to be totally unaffected by my thoughts.“Next time, make sure you get my attention before you intrude in such a manner; it would have gone bad. In such a state, I barely recognized anyone; my wolf crashed out; I was vulnerable, and you intruded. I would be aggressive and you would be dead, so don’t do it next time, at least not without my attention.”She responded with a nod.Defeated by her silence, I took a seat close by. For six years I had painted this moment, both of us in a room, all alone. I wanted to ask her what she gained in deceit. Why she took her time to visit me in the cell and make promises to run away wit

    Selene’s POVIt felt like my soul was being sucked right out of me the moment I set my eyes on her. I fell to her bed and then fondled her frail body. She looked pale and almost lifeless; her eyes were closed shut, and I could see the traces of tears in the corner of her eyes; she was crying in her sleep. I could only imagine what she was seeing while still in a coma; maybe it was the last memory of her father acting so cruelly.“She calls for you in her sleep.” Said Lucian calmly.I felt my heart break into a million pieces all over again. The last time I held her, she was crying in my arms; her body was hot, and I feared she wouldn’t make it out alive.“I believe you can heal her if you put your mind to it. Over the years, wolves who had been granted a second chance, mostly as spiritual healers, were able to heal people they were connected to, maybe family, or out of sheer kindness. If you can do it again, she will wake up,” Lucian said.My insides ached with pain; my wolf was cold

    Selene's POVIt was finally nighttime, the pack was bubbling with laughter, and the cheerful sound of patriots dancing seamlessly around the bonfire.They all sang songs of freedom while holding hands; they yelled at the top of their voices, with all certainty that their voices would reach the bossom of the moon goddess.Ella sat beside me, clapping and hopping on her seat; she had the blood of a lamb mixed with ash on her face just like everyone; Lucian had done it on everyone except me, which I didn’t question; it was the mark given to newly born wolves, and since he had cast their past away, it was only right that he gave them the mark that made them truly free.It was a happy moment for everyone, except me. I was stuck in a maze of memory, all with the help of my liquor; it made it easier for me to delve deeper into a stream of thoughts and conflicting emotions.I watched as Lucian danced around the flames, bare-chested, with the horn of a bull in his hands. He sipped from it then

    Lucian’s POVI could tell from her inability to stand still that she was drunk and uneasy, which could be justified, but Ella didn’t take it that way; she cried till I carried her to her tent.“There there, calm down,” I said while patting her back. She didn’t want me to place her on the bed, so she held on tight, unwilling to let go. A sigh escaped my lips. I didn’t sign up for this, but I had to. “Your mom didn’t mean to yell at you, Princess; she’s not feeling too good; don’t worry; you will be fine; don’t be sad." I had no experience with children, and everything I did felt like it was a mistake, but somehow this mistake of mine happened to soften her heart, and I felt her body calm in my embrace. Her loud cry turned to a muffled whimper, then a series of hiccups.Soon I felt the tightness of her grip loosen around my neck, so I took it as an opportunity to lay her down on the bed; she was already fast asleep and mildly snoring. I had no idea why I smiled, but I felt a little spar

    Lucian’s POVOne of the wolves I had sent alongside Joan walked up to me.“The queen said she wouldn’t make a deal with a man who isn’t courageous enough to show his face without a mask,” he muttered beside me. A low growl escaped my lips; my appearance had nothing to do with her decision.“The feast is over!” I yelled at the top of my voice; the sound of drums and claps was overshadowed by the lingering sound of murmur.“Go back to your tents, and stay safe!” I concluded before walking out of the ceremony, then towards the healer ward.The Fae queen. She was a widowed Luna whose husband had died in battle, leaving her to take care of the pack in his absence. She had a lot of vacant lands at her disposal, all thanks to her deceased husband, who had secured a lot of land in his tenure as Alpha. Her pack was famous for its vacant and fertile land. But she lacked the necessary population to make a pack grow, so I confided in her concerning my desire to expand my territory I told her I

    Selene’s POV My eyes fluttered open gently; the room was awkwardly bright and spinning.I blinked a few times, then noticed something weird: a pair of eyes staring down at me, totally unmoving; it leaned close to me. I jerked up from the bed in shock, thereby pushing the intruder out of the way.“Wow!” I exclaimed.Finally regaining myself, I lessened my breathing pace, then I stared beside me to see Ella on the floor; she had been staring at me all along.“Oh baby, what are you doing? Why were you standing there? I would have hurt you; are you okay?” I pulled her close, then placed a kiss on her forehead. She leaned away from my hug.“I am fine, mummy. I came to see how you were doing, then I saw you talking in your sleep; you were having a nightmare, and you called Daddy’s name,” she said. heart skipped a beat.Only the goddess knew what exactly she had heard because I had just relived my biggest trauma. In my mind, I was still in the cage. My hands were pinned to the wall by a k

    Selenes POV“Since when did you become a temptress? I thought you only understood the act of war.” I was curious as to how she had become an expert in two weeks of living the pack, she couldn't even wear heels when I first met her, she would have a bandage in her hands all the time, and to top it up, her voice was calmer than usual.“Well, I came to you because I knew whatever you did enticed Lucian, I wanted to be just like you.” Her head lowered in embarrassment, and so did mine. “ I am sorry.” I confessed, I didn’t want to tell anything after that, if she said as little as any kind word, I would tell her I was pregnant, and I might as well just ruin the day.“Whatever. Your name is Selene Taylor.” She said it in a language I didn’t understand, but I knew exactly what she meant, and I repeated it. It sounded foreign in my mouth, but I kept repeating what she said.“My name is Selene Taylor.”“There!”I gave her a resounding high five, and together we fell on each other's arms, laugh

    Selenes POVShe made me stand from where I sat, then her hands brushed over my shoulder blades. She tried to adjust the collar of my dress, which was weird, Joan and I had different dressing styles, but I stayed put, not wanting to say anything, whatever she says goes.“We have all seen a pure-bred human, and we have adapted their dress and vice, but the man you are going to meet has a weird taste, it’s too wild and ancient.” All I knew was that this man she spoke so fondly of was a mafia, and he had found this third stone Lucian needed, and I had to bring it back so he wouldn’t think me to be a wolf.Right.Now fast forward to his type of dresses. I was offered quite a handful. Joan brought out some pieces of clothes, they were very little more like the size of a napkin, and she handed them to me.“Whats this?”“A skirt.”I had worn skirts, I know skirts when I see one, but this one wasn’t just a skirt, it was like a blindfold. I sized it up on my thighs, my face contorted in a grima

    Selenes POVWe were finally done with eating, and it was time to learn the human way of speaking. We didn’t speak alike, they could not understand us and vice versa, except they learned to speak like us.Joan walked up to me with blank paper in her hands. She placed it on my thighs and then wrote a weird-looking thing on it. I stared at her drawing lines on it, they were all spaced and aligned.“This is the human alphabet, you don’t need to study it much you just need to know how they sound so you don’t lose your way there. Because their towns are way busier than ours, and it’s totally normal.”I nodded, and she tapped on one of the lines written there, she made a sound, and I repeated it, she touched another, and she made the sound, and I repeated, she did something where she pointed at both of them together, then made a sound with both of them combined.It took us about five hours, merging the alphabets and pronouncing them. After that, I was genuinely scared for my life, I was the

    Selenes POVI walked back to the side of the truck, and I sat down there with a towel wrapped around my arms. My heart was heavy, I might have suffocated her with my overprotectiveness instinct. I recalled everything that had happened, from the time she had defended me when Alex laid his hands on me for the first time.She had thrown a fit when Natasha tried to act stupid, even when it was her birthday, she held me when I started crying, and after being locked up, she never spoke about her birthday, she didn’t question me when I told her we would never see her father again.She didn’t question Lucian, she didn’t say anything about who she was to her friends, she never spoke about her father's betrayal, and she would hold me at night.I had overlooked the fact that she was also struggling as much as I did, and maybe she was just too compassionate that she didn’t want to bother me, and I had unknowingly suffocated her with it.I lowered my head as guilt welled in my heart. I am tired, g

    Selenes POVIn my dreams, I had Lucian in my arms. I had talked to him about everything—how we were on the wrong path and lied to all our lives. I had no idea he didn’t leave or the fact that I had troubled him about not telling me why he was sick just to figure out he was trying to protect my conscienceI didn’t know he sacrificed so much, and it only got worse for me to be with myself. I just wanted to see him again, to hold him and kiss him, to tell him I am sorry. In my dreams we reconciled, and we had made love and slept in each other's arms.Waking up to reality wasn’t as appealing as one would expect. I watched the top of the truck for a while before I heard Joan's voice outside. She was doing something with water, and Ella was involved in it too because I could hear her smiling and running around.My heart weighed a ton, and I pushed myself up. I stood up from the bed to welcome my daily responsibility. I had only today and tomorrow to train and learn everything I needed to kn

    Lucians POVShe seemed perplexed by the thought of going to the pack, but she was the only ruler who I would trust enough to meet up with Alex and also come back with me, and with the new development of the death of the Fae queen he was liable to believe her to, she had to be the one.Her hesitation triggered me, I didn’t come all this way to convince her alone, I needed to go back to the Eclispe pack too, I needed the people to migrate from the pack, so when it was time to fight, if he wanted to come for my pack, he would notice he doesn’t have enough army.One thing about Alex: you can always count on his reluctance and his unprofessionalism to fault his judgment, and I knew he wouldn’t check on the well-being of the pack so he wouldn’t know the number of people there.“What do you say? Will you go? And secondly, you won’t be there alone. You would be going with me, just I would sneak in, and I will keep the pack too busy to see you take the members out.”“Out how?”“You are not go

    Lucian’s POVI left the pack for a day now, and it was three weeks before everything would go south, I spent a whole days trying to rest enough to travel and I had to spend it in a tent outside the pack with a book that would help me go through the phases of poison.First it was the phase of pain, second was the hallucination, then the slow aggression and uncontrollable anxiety and panic, but there was something that happened when I killed Julian and it was blacking out, and rage.I had only felt it when Ella’s gift was destroyed by that bastard but I never felt it again, but after the threat Alex made and the idea that Selene was somewhere out there, losing control would be the last thing I needed, so I took due rest.Fast forward to a day after I was standing just at the borders of lilac pack, her wolf were hostile as usual, not letting me in, I stood on both feet unable to shift, Escarno was the most unstable now, depressed and angered by the loss of Selene it was taking both of us

  • The Disabled Luna’s Vengeance    Chapter 167

    Selene’s POV We were done eating when Joan was ready to leave, she packed some bags and handed me a dagger. She also volunteered to carry Ella on her shoulders while I did some of the heavy lifting. I didn’t protest.“Where do you stay?” “I bought an RV and sold my truck. I live in an RV, it’s modern, the latest there is, and I can also travel rapidly with it. But I can’t bring it here mostly because the road leading to most packs is bad.” Living in a car she kept proving how courageous she was. It was already hard enough staying in a vicinity where other wolves are because it was prone to attacks, but not so bad that it cannot be combated with multiple help.Living alone was dangerous because there is no one there. If four wolves mark her for attack, they will bruise her and she can’t go on four wolves at once.“It’s dangerous.” “At least I am free, and far away from interaction, that’s all that matters.” We walked through the market without a scarf and I watched as people regar

  • The Disabled Luna’s Vengeance    Chapter 166

    Selene’s POVI stood arms crossed in front of the house, the pressure almost weighed me down. Joan was selfish for this, she carelessly left me here knowing I was the reason why the guards were beating people up.I bit my fingers while trying to stop myself from panicking but it did so little with the level of anxiety that took charge of my mind.What would I tell them? That it wasn’t me? Should I cut my hair and claim to be a citizen? Who am I kidding? I do not have the markings of their pack, I do not have their scent, I didn’t stay long enough, I do not have enough excuses, and what do I say about Ella?I fit the description totally, a blonde lady who has a little girl in her care. I refuse to let Joan’s carelessness lead the king to behead me.My weary eyes looked for escape, the borders must be closed, the pack was shut down, or maybe I could run through corners and hide in a house that had been searched.No that’s stupid, the pack members can’t be that stupid, no one would lay t
