The Forsaken Luna's Burning Love 71. The Secret Meeting
Those... were the words I wanted to spit out of my mouth when I saw Luelle's face appear on the door to my room. But I can't do that, right? There are still many eyes and ears that I want to bring to my side with the 'kindness' I did to Luelle. And it seems like I still haven't quite accumulated a good reputation and 'topped her out', judging by how the last banquet went.‘Is Luelle more charming so people sympathize with her more? If it continues like this, it's more like Luelle is the main character in a play.'It's annoying if she is the main character even in the story of my life.“I didn't know you were a morning person. So, what brings you here?”Luelle slowly stepped into my room. I could see that the maids were a little awkward with Luelle's presence, especially when they had to display the dresses I wanted to wear today in her presence.Behind Luelle, I saw her again… her maid. If they walked around the capital's plaza area with the attitude they were showing right now, it wo

“That's something you don't need to worry about, but thank you for asking,” Sashal answered calmly and with a minimum of a smile.But that wasn't the answer Rohan was waiting for when he asked.There were no signs that Sashal was annoyed or disturbed by Rohan's question, which seemed strange because Sashal didn't usually act that calm in front of him. Usually, Sashal 'looks' calm when dealing with him, but that's just how it appears. Rohan could read that all this time, Sashal was only acting calm when she interacted with him.But the answer just now weirdly triggered him.Rohan opened his mouth with a slight grin on his face, then replied. “Don't you want to return the question to me?”Usually, with questions like this and timing like this, Rohan could see one or two thin creases forming on Sashal's forehead. It looked adorable to him how Sashal tried to maintain her expression in response to his every absurdity. That small reaction made Rohan keep going to tease her.Sashal parted h

One day before the peace agreement conference, Jermaine gathered important figures in the royal council for a meeting. Mostly they discuss what things they want to convey at the conference tomorrow. Talking about the offers they can make to Northern as long as they can get the frozen lava lake area.They were experienced in negotiating with other countries, so they were very confident that they could get what they wanted, considering that this was Northern's first inter-country negotiation. Not only discussing that, they also discussed the big benefits they would get if they got a frozen lava lake.Some have even invested in companies owned by several nobles who rely on magic stones. In human countries, this kind of attitude is usually followed by the saying -don't count your chickens before they are hatched-. It was a phrase that Sashal often uttered during meetings, but to be honest, the officials didn't like those words.Jermaine is also one who doesn't like that saying because it'

The mocking questions spat out by Alpha Rohan were like dowsing us all with a bucket of ice water.I saw the expression of the other council members were not that good, while the Northerners's looks like they almost gave up because of the stupidity displayed by the Southern Olf. Even I am frustrated with the stupidity of people on the same side.I glanced at Jermaine, and he still maintained his arrogant face. He was the one who told me not to interfere and just sit like a flower in a vase, so let's see.'There's a reason why I'm the one who always joined in talks like this with other countries. I thought he knew why.'So let's see how skillfully these people you trust perform their roles.Alpha Rohan tapped his pen on the table then said in a low, resonant voice. “Why do you repeat the same words over and over again? 80 percent neutral territory, 70 percent neutral territory, 60 percent neutral territory plus your scholars, then now 50 percent neutral territory and Southern technolog

Tension filled the conference room. The room, illuminated with sparkling lights, felt like it was covered in a dark shadow that weakened the courage.“Did I say something that wasn't a fact?” Rohan responds to Jermaine's bluff calmly, and so do his subordinates. He even continued his remarks, emphasizing, "It is strange if you are offended by a truth that you know is the truth."Ah, this man is quite persuasive. I could even agree with what he said just now that if it was a fact, then what was the point of being offended by it?‘If it were me before the time-loop phenomenon, I would have reacted similarly to Jermaine.’Like if someone called me with… let's say, [-What a woman!-] It would be strange if I was offended by that word when it was a fact. That I am indeed a woman. It is the same as what he said about our warriors suck on the battlefield because that is the fact based on data.If it weren't for that, I wouldn't have proposed this conference in order to protect the lives of ou

"That's right," said Alpha Rohan seriously.But a train of chuckles was heard instead. Coming from the council members and the other officials of Southern Olf. I can understand why they laughed at his answer. And I can also understand why Alpha Rohan grinned wryly, then followed the small laughter of the council members of Southern Olf.He must have felt complicated emotions when his sincere answered was insulted right before his face. At least, that's how it would have happened to me if I were in his shoes right now. But then again, I can't read him with confidence because he has a lot of contradictory actions.“Alpha Rohan, is it just because of that?” Marquis Gilliar asked while muffling his laughter.It was an extremely impolite act, considering that the person before him was the Alpha of the Northern Kingdom. It just showed how impatient he was to laugh at him.In a situation like that, Alpha Rohan even snorted in amusement. “I should have seen this coming,”“Is it true that you

Someone kept following her. And she couldn't pretend she didn't notice when he was so obvious. So she stopped, announcing to Ruri to wait for her there. As she said that, Ruri immediately understood her real task, to keep a look out from others' sight."Alpha Rohan, is there something you want to tell me?" Sashal asked as if she was talking to herself because Rohan was not nearby.But somehow, she knows that Rohan was able to hear her mumbling. And sure enough, Rohan came to her very fast, like lightning in the rainy season. The two of them walked almost side by side towards a quiet part of the outdoor corridor.Rohan's golden eyes looked down on her, a smirk clearly on his face.“Why do you keep avoiding my gaze?” He asked her, drawing near, “I know you saw me.” He told her.Sashal spread her glances in all directions.“Don't worry, Faresh kept a lookout in this area with your lady-in-waiting,” Rohan said softly as he gently took hold of her hand.He had even used his ability to blur

When Sashal finally returned to her chambers, Ruri and Bella were already gathered there, walking back and forth while chanting like spells. As soon as Ruri had seen her, she immediately ran up to her with a cry.“Your Majesty!” She exclaimed as she was near and paused in front of her, fidgeting.Bella also did the same thing. And she said, “His Majesty is looking for you as soon as you are out of his sight. We couldn't do anything when His Majesty found us standing guard there.” She informed her, and Sashal nodded.Of course, Jermaine would find her if he tried, she thought. It was also not difficult to get rid of Ruri and Bella, so they were forced to leave her there. She just didn't expect that he would find her with Alpha Rohan in a place that Alpha Rohan 'said' was guarded by his aide.'What a bullcrap. He can't even hide and conceal his intentions.' She grumbled inwardly.“Yes, I've seen him,” Sashal replied with a soft smile, and Ruri stared at her agape before closing her mout

“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
