The Forsaken Luna's Burning Love 80. An Enlightment For The Poor Heart (5)
She missed the smell of the books neatly arranged in the inner palace library, which only certain people could access. Especially if the visit is carried out at night like now. And since she was a queen, it wasn't a big deal. Even the librarian seemed to be waiting for Sashal to come to the library at night, as was her habit.She passed the bookshelves with her eyes combing the titles on the covers. She spent her time in the hallway filled with Northern-related books. She had read many books from this aisle to prepare for the peace treaty. But it seems like she hasn't read enough.After stacking the books in a cart, she pushed them to her favorite table. And that's how she spent almost an hour tracing the words in books she hadn't read before. All that accompanied her was the sound of sheets of paper being turned repeatedly.It would be more reassuring to her soul if she managed to find out what the answer to her question was, except she didn't get that. 'Is that information not in t

She was so surprised by his presence that she couldn't think of anything else.It's not like she could scream, asking for help from the people around. It was like her thoughts had scrambled in her mind as she felt the blood rush to her face in shame. She didn't understand the big deal when it was discovered that she was studying something. She was embarrassed because Rohan, of all people, caught her doing so."I am always curious about you, so here I am." He answered languidly, and she frowned and moved to let him leave.But Rohan didn't move an inch from his current position. He stared at her closely.“…Do you still not want to talk to me?”“…”Sashal's lips tightened. She thought of his underlying intention and why her reaction to him was so important to him. Whether it was an evil scheme or a political move.However, in contrast to her complicated thoughts, the man in front of her was quite simple. His intention was always the same and pure—in fact, he just wanted to know why she d

“….”'What am I saying?! Gaaaah!' She cursed herself for brazenly getting the question out of her own mouth. 'I sound like a delusional woman! Gah! Oh no!'Her inner self was screaming and groaning, making it difficult for her to control her face so that it remained flat and unaffected. Between her curses, she casts a spell to return to five seconds ago. Before she asked the question.'What's wrong with my arrogance?! Why is it peaking at a time like this?!'If she collected many scenes that had happened between her and Rohan, it wouldn't be strange if she concluded it that way. Rohan comes from Northern, which has a strong 'fate mate' culture, where they limit interactions with the opposite sex until the day of mating ceremonies arrives.He also shows his interest in her so clearly and consistently. She also didn't see Rohan interact with other women besides Luelle; he even lowkey looked down on Luelle when he was with her.She thought these were signs that made her self-confidence s

After saying that, Rohan brought his hand to the number two button of his shirt. With a nimble finger movement, the top of his shirt was opened. No, it looks almost torn because, in the end, Rohan uses a little of his strength to rip it slightly."What are you doing?!" Sashal glared at Rohan with her claws already appearing from behind the cloak. “Did you resort to this lowly method now?”“Wait, wait, lower your claws, princess. It's not what you think. I mean, do you see me that annoying to be thinking I would actually do something that would make you react like that?"Sashal kept her wary gaze towards Rohan while lowkey giving him a curt nod.That made Rohan spit out a sneer. “I'm not! I just want to show you something. Just wait.”Sashal raised her claws again and pointed at him. “Don't you know that those words sound more weird?”Rohan took a deep breath while shaking his head. He was impatient and finally tore his clothes until the buttons bounced off. "Look,"But on the other ha

“Would you…”‘… leave this place with me?’To hell with the peace treaty or whatever. It's a good time to leave a place that doesn't appreciate her existence. Which he was sure would only make her heart sink further if she pushed too hard.He was sure that if Sashal went with him, he would treat her a thousand times better than the treatment she received here. If Sashal wants it, he will put the world under her feet.Rohan wanted to blurt out this favour of his just like that. So that Sashal is willing to run with him and leave all this behind, but he knows the answer best. Even though this place pushed her to the brink, Sashal has her own love for this country. This can be seen from her dedication as the wolf queen.That's why he could only grin wryly as he imagined the day his wish could come true. As much as he hoped, that much he also put a brake on his hopes from flying too high when he saw his current situation. If that was an answer that was difficult for him to get when Sashal

“…the queen was not as firm and ruthless as she usually is when striking a deal. For some reason, in this agreement, she seems to be giving more leeway to the Northern compared to other countries that have collaborated with us in the past. In fact, the agreement value of this treaty could cover the operational costs of road construction for the next five years and more, but she…” Frau trailed off his words, leaving many choices of words to fill in."That's what I thought as well, Your Majesty." Marquise Gilliard chimed in, followed by two other colleagues who nodded simultaneously, confirming his words.Frau added. "With all due respect for her, Your Majesty, it's slightly a shame that the agreement offered by the queen at the conference did not provide much benefit for Southern Olf."Jermaine raised an eyebrow.“Oh gosh, glad you mentioned it, Sir Frau.” Marquise Beta Cleyment turned his body slightly as he continued his words. “I thought that as well, Your Majesty. How can she offer

The scribble-like mark that had been on the nape of my neck for seven years had apparently disappeared. 'Since when?'Who knows.For a moment, I felt empty as I realized that the mark of my bond with Jermaine was completely erased as if it had never been there in the first place. It all does disappear, leaving not even a dot. With this, my mind drifted to the mark on the nape of Jermaine.It was already blurry to begin with, and now... maybe it's gone too.'Does this mean we no longer have any ties? What about my feelings? Why don't my feelings for him just disappear like this?I've never read about the phenomenon of the loss of bonding marks in ancient literature stored in libraries, in the most neglected section. Maybe for the past few years, I was the only one reading the books there, as the people in the palace considered those books to be nothing more than fairy tales.That's why I always keep my reading a secret in front of people. In case they call me something I don't like. Bu

At first, she walked reluctantly with a little bit of grumbling on the side. Nonetheless, her pace slowly increased as she started loitering in the area. The eyes that only looked straight with annoyance now gleamingly roamed along the sights in the street.In fact, she started to drag Rohan to follow her steps.Like a giddy child, Sashal manically snooped around. She unconsciously followed the delicious smell of food, leading her to the street food vendor after surrounding the accessories vendor. As she approached the food stall, she stepped back and started.She didn't realize that she was already in the queue of people who were the same as her, tempted to try the meatball skewered glazed with peanut sauce. She didn't expect this kind of attack tonight. She cleared her throat, then slowly kept her distance from the queue, ignoring its tenacious appetizing smell.It's just that as her hand joined Rohan's hand in a link, she couldn't continue walking away because Rohan stood in his pla

“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
