The Forsaken Luna's Burning Love 33. Her Nest (2)
“I would definitely scratch my face off if I were Lady Lenbergh. What a poor girl.”“Well, if the queen orchestrated this event, then it's only natural that she would use that opportunity to humiliate her. But, told her to wear her wedding dress? Really? That's too much of her.""Do you know what's funnier for me?"“The happy face of Lady Lenberg?”“Yes! Doesn't seeing her pretending to be happy like that make your stomach churn? Whoa, I'm good at holding my laughter.”“Why did I even see Lady Lenbergh genuinely happy wearing that dress? And that's funnier for me, to think like how stupid she is."A rang of giggles resonated through the air. Luelle bit her lower lip, and her nose flared up red."How long do you think Lady Lenbergh will last in her current position?""I'd say, three months at most?""That's too much credit for her, Lady Gwenn. I'd say two months. She's no rival for the queen."Luelle, who heard the senior noble ladies' conversation, could only frown. She didn't underst

“Do you remember your nickname when we were kids?”My nickname when I was a kid? There are many, of course. If it's from my parents, maybe I hear the calls 'stupid' and 'b#tch' more often. But from kids around my age at that time, maybe the call 'monkey' I heard more often, especially from boys who liked to tease me.I looked at Ansel. I wonder which nickname he remembered until now and made an impression on his mind…"Um, monkey lady?" I replied."What?" Ansel looked genuinely surprised, and then he chuckled.His expression was quite funny as his eyes widened to one side, followed by a corner of his lips. Dispelling for a moment the image of the sinister Beta Duke he had carried for years. But that scary expression he makes daily makes many women wish they could harbor their love for Ansel.Several times, the ladies asked me for help arranging an arranged marriage with Ansel. But since Ansel looks annoyed every time I mention that, I'm not continuing as his matchmaker. I must give in

Jermaine glanced curtly at Ansel, who slowly lifted himself.Ansel greeted him. “Good evening, Your Majesty Alpha King. Congratulations on your second marriage.”“!”Ansel! Gosh. Even though I just reminded him not to be hostile to either Jermaine or Luelle, but!I stood up, blocking Jermaine’s view of Ansel. “Is there anything you need, Your Majesty?” I asked.Jermaine’s eyes shifted at me, thankfully.He asked. “What are you doing here? In a deserted place with a single man? I know you guys have been friends since childhood, but shouldn’t there be boundaries between you two?”I tightened my jaw. His words and the eyes he directed at me seemed to accuse me of lechery. My tongue was itching to reply, ‘I didn’t do what you did with my friend, so what’s your business?’… that way. But of course, I swallowed my response.“Perhaps you are not aware, but there are two guards you have put for me accompanying us here.” I looked to the side, indicating with my eyes that someone other than the

It is quite challenging to find his princess, who is still locked in her cage. Even if he put his all into it, it wasn't enough to make him find Sashal. Meanwhile, transforming into the form of a cub wolf is one of his main skills to avoid suspicion. He had proven that time and time again when he infiltrated the Southern Olf.He walked around the garden around the hall. He's trying his luck at that, then goes, Tada! His luck works well when he can see Sashal out of the big building.Sashal walked with Ansel, a Beta he had met the other day. His claws dig deep into the ground with every step he takes, then hide behind the bushes in the garden, among the flowers that hopefully distract others from his existence.[‘Please. Be kind to her. No, you don't have to be nice to her. Just... don't show your dislike towards her and Jermaine….’]Hearing that request left Sashal's mouth with a trembling voice, left not only Ansel speechless but Rohan as well. He had growled low several times when h

‘What was I thinking just now?’ I shook my head. Laughing at my own silliness. Now, every time I see a combination of silver and gold, that man always comes to my mind without warning. Every time that happened, my heart would beat loudly. It was so loud I needed some alone time in case someone knew who I was thinking about. Then again, it's also ridiculous because no one will know what's in my mind unless that person can read it. Even Shan also never knew what that man looked like or what made me nervous every time he popped up in my mind. It was the first experience, and I hope the last, to dream something like that with another man. I'm ashamed to admit it, but just like that day, I experienced what young people usually go through; sexual frustration. 'Yeah, it happens normally with those who are young. I'm also still relatively young, right?' Moreover, I haven't felt that desire in all the years following my time looped, and Jermaine has never given me that need either. Coupled

There is only one day left before the year-end celebration, as well as the welcoming of Northern envoys takes place.Today was just another hectic day after yesterday's completion of Luelle's appointment as a royal concubine. Even though I had to think hard from one morning to solve one problem after another, I'm grateful. Because at least I haven't heard anything about Luelle all day. So I can put my focus on the events for tomorrow.The plan was for Northern's envoys to arrive at noon. And at noon that day, we will also have a welcoming ceremony for them, followed by a luncheon. Then, at night, they will be guests of honor at the year-end celebration which almost all of the nobility will attend.I heard from Bella that the streets in the capital have been busily decorated to welcome the festive year-end event, especially since there will be a historic event where the Northern Kingdom will also be present this year.I read that many media have written articles to welcome this histori

People are amazed by the wonder at the Northerner's unique beauty. Even though they often ridicule Northerners as being old-fashioned, uneducated, barbarian, or a nation that resembles a dog in a rut, they cannot deny that Northerners carry an exceptional beauty to their shell.Unlike Southern Olf's formal clothes that were tailored to fit perfectly around the body and layered over each attire they wore, the Northern clothes were sewn with generous amounts of natural fabric that hung loosely around their bodies.Despite the beautiful appearance of every Northerner who entered the hall, everyone in the hall could distinguish who their Alpha was just by his presence alone. He wasn't the one walking in the forefront, nor was he the one behind. He was in the middle of the line, as if deliberately trying to cover his presence, even though it was impossible.Or, that's how processions are supposed to be in Northern culture.The man's slightly tanned skin glowed under the sunlight. His body

“I have prepared a separate banquet for you and the other. Let's follow this side.” Jermaine stared fixedly into Rohan's eyes, ensuring they stayed in his line of sight and did not wander.Because what annoyed him even more was… when those golden eyes fell on Sashal, his wife.“Thank you for the warm welcome for us. If so, you can lead the way.”Jermaine heaved a sigh of relief quietly at Rohan's response. "Then, it's over here." He turned around, gesturing to his assistants. Thinking that this uncomfortable feeling would end soon,But…"Ah, did the princess- I mean, did the queen to coming with us?"Sashal flinch. She also realized that her body seemed to freeze so she didn't follow Jermaine's steps in beat."I will," Sashal answered flatly. She managed her voice so that it didn't come out shaking.Rohan extended his hand to Sashal with a smile on his face. “Let me escort you, Your Majesty. I heard this kind of action is considered a gentlemen's gesture. Then, allow me to be your gen

“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
