The Forsaken Luna's Burning Love 104. A Wolf Who Cried (3)
I tried to open my eyes slowly, then squinted in pain. When I opened my eyes, I caught sight of my room ceiling. The same view that I see every day. Sometimes I'm grateful, sometimes I'll curse.Today what came out of my mouth when I woke up was, “Darn it.”Why did I suddenly have a dream like that? No, it wasn't a dream, but a reminder. But I don't know why it came back when I always remember everything clearly like it was engraved in my head.‘Perhaps… does it come as a sign of bad news to come?’I looked at the wall clock. The short hour hand still points to nine. That meant I only slept for three hours, but I felt like I had slept for a long time. Even if I try to go back to sleep, I can't do it anymore because all my cells are awake and asking me to start doing activities."Hmm, how did my life end at that time, huh? It doesn't look like being beheaded on the guillotine..."I let out a lazy breath, then raised my body slowly. My body remembers that today I have a lot of schedules

Indeed, the royal palace was well decorated, even though it was outdoors. Delicate fabrics and ribbons are decorated further to enhance the beauty of the flowers and garden. The colourful lights on the wall of a tall bush secretly surround the garden so that you can't peek inside.As many people had already arrived, the servants were wandering around tables prepared for each family.“His Majesty the Alpha King and Her Majesty the Wolf Queen are entering!”Upon my and Jermaine's arrival at the podium located in the middle of the vast garden, everyone rose from their seats and saluted. After announcing our presence, we separated because we had our own goals. At least Jermain went with some other gentlemen, forming a group.I could have gone to the group of women who had gathered in the main tent, but when I saw Luelle among them, I thought better of not going there. And among them appeared Lady Arra and Lady Mirra. Gosh, now I know why those memories come back in the form of dreams. Tha

Leaves crunched beneath my feet after I decided to get off Jermaine's guardian wolf's back and walked two steps behind him. It was the right distance for me at the moment as I knew that Jermaine didn't mean to bring me into his hunt, in case Alpha Rohan didn't provoke him.“Do you have something you want to talk to me about?”Even though I don't like some of the ladies at the main table of the tea party held by Luelle, such as Lady Arra, Lady Mirra, and Lady Yoanc, it's still better than being here with Jermaine.It seems like the loss of our bonding mark is already showing its impact, as I don't want to be by his side anymore. During the trip here, I wondered whether my feelings for him resulted from a manipulation where we shared the same bonding mark I had with him, and not because I really loved him?If that's really the case ... that's a little sad. I've been loving him for all the lives I have lived. I assume this is my feeling, but also not at the same time. If the Moon Goddess

“And also, wasn't our plan B our real plan from the start? You created that plan B, Queen. Don't go back on your word now when we are about to carry out the plan.”“That's…,” I trailed off my words.My conscience felt like it was being tugged at when I couldn't come up with a real rebuttal. I swallowed the bitter saliva in my throat. That was my idea from the start, but that's what came to my mind when I was desperate to win the hearts of many people, especially in parliament, and... that's happened before I knew Alpha Rohan.“I… apologize for suggesting such a bad idea. If allowed, I will come up with another idea, Your Majesty.”“Queen, you… would you really be like this? Don't even bother cheating your way out of this.” He reminded me sternly. "Are you planning to sell out your country after all."“Your Majesty, that is not what I—”“Then what is

She had already anticipated this event as she got the opportunity to act as host at an official Royal Family event. Initially, she wanted to hold a tea banquet ceremony in the palace's grandest garden, where only selected people could enjoy its beauty. But when she heard the suggestion from her lady-in-waiting, Lady Yoanc, who revealed that holding a tea ceremony at the same time as the hunting festival would show her influence within the palace, she immediately agreed.She didn't expect to get permission from Sashal so quickly for this, considering that the leading authority was officially still in the hands of the queen. And yet, she could host an event involving almost all the noble ladies in the capital, regardless of their age group.Even though she believed Jermaine's influence and strength would protect her, she agreed with what Lady Yoanc told her. The more she socialised with the ladies and madams of High Society, the stronger her position at the royal court became.'Yeah, La

"I wish I could get back the thing I gave you as an apology." Rohan scoffed in between his baffling request, then continued in a murmur. “I must be crazy to have done such a useless thing.” For a few seconds, silence douses the atmosphere at the party. It was as if people were re-digesting Rohan's words just now. Considering whether they heard it correctly or whether there was an error in their hearing process. Rohan conveyed this request lightly and without shame, surprising the guests who heard it. Then as if answering their internal question, Rohan repeated his words. "I want you to return what my aide once gave you as an apology gift, or something like that." “…Yes?” Luelle could not hide her dumbfounded expression as her face reddened when someone gave Rohan a brief warning. “Your Excellency.” One of the madams at the same table as Luelle reprimanded him sternly. But Rohan didn't care one bit about the old woman's bluff and just looked at Luelle with cold eyes. He then smil

It looked like it would rain at any moment because of the suffocating wind and the sound of thunder grumbling in the distance. The cloudy sky was totally unsuitable for a hunt and uncalled for, especially when Sashal delivered a piece of her mind.Rohan swallowed bitter saliva as he sighed. “Not this talk again. Come on, let's take you back to the tent before it rains."He tried to reach Sashal's hand again, pretending not to care that Sashal had just rejected his hand. But of course, Sashal brought her hands to the back, leaving Rohan's outstretched hand hanging alone in the air. Rohan looked at his neglected hand, then looked at Sashal.Sashal parted her mouth slowly, then repeated her words. “I told you, I'm not your mate. I… don’t have the mark like what you have.”“Don't say it like that when you haven't even checked yours. Do you know how… my heart shrinks whenever you deny something you haven't yet found out the truth about?”Sashal frowned as she witnessed how Rohan's expressi

He kissed me! Damn it!As much as I tried to keep my mouth shut— as I didn't want to repeat the craziness before, Alpha Rohan kept pushing his tongue into my mouth. That velvety tongue managed to mess up the inside of my mouth again. He was determined to shut me in this way.His tongue clashed with mine, which was unable to withstand his attack, and then a groan escaped my hot breath. It happened without me being able to control it because my body didn't seem to be under my control every time Alpha Rohan approached me like this.I could feel his movements which were now rougher than the first kiss we had shared in the dark of the royal palace library garden. This time the kiss seemed rushed and… angry, while the previous one felt more greedy and passionate.Was what I said to him something that could made him so angry like this? If he knew that getting involved with me would only make his life difficult, maybe he would stop right now.“Mmmh… hup,”"Sashal... uhh," He had time to let g

“Ruri will come here?” Sashal sounded excited. “Yeah, she is. But I need to scold Menitto first for giving news about you to the other party.” “Come on, you know Menitto moved because of my orders. He did it because I wanted Ruri to also hear this good news on time.” Sashal pout. It melted Rohan's heart so much that he couldn't help but smile. “Alright, alright, you can have fun with your friends. But, are you sure you're okay?" “Yeah. Thanks to the herbal medicine I made, my body felt lighter after giving birth. And I recovered quite quickly." “You're still pale.” “But I'm fine, really. I know very well how unbearable the pain was after giving birth to Roschal, so I know that my current condition is the best.” Rohan frowned. "I still regret I couldn't keep you company during those hard times." “You don't have to. We just played our respective roles at that time.” Sashal kissed the back of Rohan's palm. “By the way, how long will Ruri visit?” “Ah, about that, I also want to di

The night felt agonizingly prolonged, with each passing minute stretching their apprehension. It was only when the first light of dawn graced the sky, followed by the long-awaited sound, that a sigh of relief finally escaped the lips of everyone outside the room. With the rising sun, Rohan passes through the big door with a bouquet and baby Roschal in his arms.He arranged the flowers in a large vase quite skillfully, like someone who was used to doing it. It was unimaginable coming from an Alpha. After that, he sat on a chair next to the bed."How are you feeling, my princess?" Rohan stretched out his hand to caress Sashal's head.“It never gets better than this, dear,” Sashal answered with a chuckle despite her pale face.Watching Sashal's expression, Rohan couldn't stop himself from kissing her pale face. Not only he but baby Roschal also doesn't want to lose to his father. He hugged and kissed the face of his mother, whom he had not seen for four days. He did it well enough that S

Not only do we have to fight the legendary creature for which we don't have the right answers, but we also have to fight against time. Everything seemed to be moving faster than usual, even though the Calamity had not yet been fully pushed to the point we agreed on. If it continues like this until the sun disappears behind the horizontal, then what we are trying to do will be meaningless.“We need more people on our side to make the Calamity come to that spot on its own accord, out of frustration.”Alpha Deen had the same thoughts as me. I nodded as I looked towards the Northern warriors. They glanced at each other. I could understand their hesitation about becoming the raw bait to lure the Calamity. Meanwhile, Rohan and the others on the other side didn't look like they were in good condition after fighting nonstop. It had been going on for over four hours, and time was not on our side.“I'll do it. But you know that with just one person, it won't attract his attention. So, you have

Out of surprise, the steps that stopped suddenly slowly found their rhythm again despite signs of hesitation by the warriors. However, it was not visible from Alpha Duke Gustaav and Kaesang as they made their steps so clear. Seeing the fearless temperament of the two men, Jermaine became even more agitated.“How dare all of you! How dare you challenge me here!” He created even more duplicates of his wolf, probably hoping the Alpha Dukes would stop in their tracks.When Alpha Duke Gustaav and Kaesang stopped in their tracks, he smirked. He glanced curtly at me, then bared his teeth.“You guys aren't going anywhere. I'll make sure you receive the same punishment as that traitor!”“Traitor? Who?" Alpha Duke Gustaav retorted in a sharp tone. “Ah, you're talking about yourself?”"What?"“Your Majesty, ah no, nephew, don't you dare get in our way to fix the mess you've made.” Alpha Duke Kaesang warned."What are you talking about?"“Stop your damn whining, Alpha King. If you can't control y

“Ugh,”As the ground began to swallow us, Rohan tried to lift my sinking body. He dug the ground around me with his claws while Ansel shouted.“It's me! Ansel! It's me!”He kept shouting those words out of his lungs several times as if that could stop what was happening.I couldn't grasp my mind as panic enveloped my whole body. I tried to only focus on getting the lower part of my body out of the ground while not burdening Rohan who managed to free himself from this terrible pull.“I'll get you out. Don't worry." Rohan kept calming me, who was starting to feel numb to everything around me, apart from the sound of my heartbeat, which filled my head.At that moment, like a miracle, the ground stopped rumbling all of a sudden. Like it never swallows us. 'Huh?'“Damn it! Finally!” Ansel cursed, but I could catch the tone of relief from his curse just now.Before long, I could understand why.Several people were standing on the surface of the land that had not collapsed, surrounding us. “

“Beta Duke Avimelech, what is this madness? I'm sure now that you helped that woman escape, stage it as she died tragically. And there is also that Alpha. Hah, so you're also a traitor.” Gamma Marquise Blaine glares at us each, spitting bars of slander.There's a hint of fear in his trembling eyes, yet he dares to bark at us. I'll have to give him a round of applause next time.“Whatever you say, sir. You can accuse me of being a traitor or whatever, only if you get out of here safely, though.”“Guards!” With his calling, all the guards gather shielding him and his companion. “Did you just threaten to kill us all, Beta Duke Avimelech?!”Rohan bursts out laughing. “Haha, haaa… It's not us, you moron. Have you forgotten where you are now? The Calamity can easily swallow all of you. What a jester. And you worked with these clowns for years, dear?”“Exactly, my words.” I shook my head.“Wait~ What is this~ Have you all… haaaa, also see the former queen? Huh? Am I not the only one who saw

A huge chaos and crisis was unfolding before my eyes. I still vividly remember how this small town alive even though the darkness of night shrouded it. But now all of that is engulfed in a big fire. We literally bathed in a sea of fire.The only reason why we were still fine despite the flames that enveloped us was thanks to Alpha Deen's divine energy. I'm not sure how his ability works, but it kind of protects us from being touched by fire.Even though I couldn't really feel the heat of the fire surrounding us, my chest felt tight, as if all the air had disappeared. My hands are shaking. And after a suffocating silence, I stretched my hand out to Rohan. He grabbed my hand.I can see this choice happening because of two possibilities. One, the desperate actions of the survivors to keep the Calamity away from them, or Jermaine ordering the burning of this entire city.This guess was reflexively projected in my mind because he often advised me to burn things he considered useless. He a

“I should have seen this coming and put another guard beside him on your side. But picturing two men following you around everywhere ticks me off so much.” A low growl sounded out under his rough breath.I could understand from his gaze why he felt upset at this situation. I would probably feel upset if I were in his position. He is accustomed to leading people who obey his orders and put aside their personal ideas for the community's welfare. But now he meets someone like me as his Luna.In this part, I admit my mistake towards Rohan. So I need to do that to appease his upset. I glanced at Alpha Deen and Sir Rojja, who were acting indifferent, although I'm not sure if they were really indifferent to our conversation. I still have to do it even though I have to bear the shame for the rest of my life.I took a breath from my mouth, then let out the spell. “I miss you soooo much that everything in front of me reminds me of you. When I eat, when I sleep, when I look at flowers, when I lo

After receiving solace after a long time from the letter written by Ruri, a painful realization came to me instead. Because what I consider a brief entertainment is a misery for almost everyone in Southern Olf. They lost two important figures at the highest level of command, who were supposed to help them reorganize the state order.Well, I don't know how they look at Luelle, whether they feel they can lean on her or even think of her as nothing. But it's different with Jermaine, their Alpha King.They have relied on the authority of the Alpha King for many years, from generation to generation. And so far, their life in Southern Olf is not so bad because of the sense of security provided by Alpha King's predecessors, then now by Jermaine and... me, to be honest.Knowing it's frail, it must be devastating as they can't hang on to Jermaine's rope. They must be afraid that the more they cling to the rope, the more they fall. Their best shot right now is to depend on high-ranking wolves f
