Chapter 179

“She’s almost here,” I muttered happily as I stretched my neck to get a better look of the carriage pulling closer.

“Yeah she is. It’s really not necessary for you to stand here and welcome her yourself though,” Alisa said lightly as she peered at me curiously.

“True but I want to,” I replied, distracted as I watched the carriage pull to a stop in front of the palace entrance.

It had taken three weeks to finalise the appointments and finally after the war, everything was back to normal.

Or as normal as it can be with Triss and Herley gone. My stomach had began to show slightly, so small that I often wondered if my bump was a figment of my imagination.

After Brie and Triss left, Arnou replaced my maids with twin girls called Minna and Linna. They were good enough, quiet and quick on their feets. But they were not Brie and Lea, and I found it hard to think of them as my girls.

I doubt anyone noticed I was pregnant though. Apart from the switch in my routine and the bigger d

    Chapter 180I walked past the dungeon guards and marched straight down into the dungeon.“Are you guys trying to kill her? She still has a child inside of her” I searched in annoyance as I pushed the guard standing outside of Lea’s cell to see her moaning on the rickety bed in pain.“The medics are on their way, queen of queens. They’ll be here any second” the guard tried to explain.Arnou arrived behind him and smartly moved Lea out of the way as my eyes began to cackle and steam hissed from my ears in anger.“Medics? Surely you’re not trying to deliver the baby here? In this filthy cell?” I yelled in anger as I turned to the cell gates and sliced through the lock with a sliver of fire.“Well, what are you waiting for?” Arnou asked the guard and the maid who had alerted us.“You heard the high Luna! Evaluate her at once! I might not know much about childbirth but even I can see she’s about to have the baby at any moment”I closed my eyes tightly as tears filled my eyes. Lea was groa

    Chapter 181I wish there was another way to describe the emotions that ran through me at her announcement. It was pure unadulterated fear.And that's wrong. That's sad, I mean a new baby had just been born in the palace yet I couldn't bring myself to get over the cold fear that overtook me.“High Luna? Are you okay?” my maid asked softly with pity in her eyes. I hated it.She probably thought me pathetic but I couldn't bring myself to care. I just didn't have enough strength in me, there was no point replying her.I pushed myself off the bed and staggered to my closet. I should have taken a bath, but I didn't have enough strength in me to deal with that.My other maid, Minna, when had been quietly observing me since I woke up, came up to me.And with a single hand motion, she signaled her partner and together they began to start the process of dressing me for the day.I didn't tell then to work fast. I should have, considering how much I had anticipated the baby's arrival, I should hav

    It happened slowly. Or maybe it happened at a normal pace and I was the one stuck in limbo.The crowd howling and yelling profanities. Lea gracefully moving to her death with her head held up high like the royal woman she had stolen from us.Her being forced to her knees, the executioner reading out her crimes before lifting his sword. I might have wanted to close my eyes but I was frozen and transfixed as Lea’s eyes locked with mine for the last time.Then the sword came down. Faster than I could blink.A tortured gasp escaped me as her severed head rolled from her limp body and came to rest a few feet away from me. Eyes open.Almost as though he could sense what was coming next, Arnou took Azalea from my arms as I doubled over with a wail and retched.“It’s okay, it’s okay,” Arnou whispered as he tried to console me but the world was already spinning.The last thing I saw before I blacked out was Lea’s piercing eyes. Empty.I regained consciousness to the distinct voices of Arnou a

    Chapter 183I walked up and down the front of Nikkini’s room trying to steady myself.The sound of light footsteps made me whip my head around quickly and I looked with anticipation to the maid that came running towards me.“Where is he?” I asked her earnestly as I looked behind her but didn’t see Arnou.“I’m sorry, queen of queens. The Lycan is occupied in a meeting. He can’t come right now,” she responded with a deep bow.I gave her a solemn nod and tried to steady myself.“Well, in that case, I’ll see her myself “ I declared softly as I gestured for her to open the room door.The maid gave me a slight bow and hurried to push open the door to Nikkini’s room.My eyes narrowed as I stepped into the room to see Veneyfer resting on the chest of a woman I haven’t seen in years.“You’re here,” I said coldly as I strolled into the room.“Hello, Daciana,” Erin, Nikkini’s mother, and my adopted mother greeted me with a drawl.“I don’t remember giving you permission to address me by my name,”

    Chapter 184I hissed in irritation as I stared at the girl in front of me. It wasn’t her fault. She hadn’t done anything wrong in the slightest, I was just projecting my frustration unto her.‘I apologize if I have somehow upset you, queen of queens,” She apologized with a low bow.Maliya beside me hid an amused chuckle behind her hands and I narrowed my eyes at her.“No, girl. You haven’t done anything. That’s the issue, I replied with a deep sigh as I paused to take a sip of my water.The girl rose from her curtsy and exchanged a confused panicked look with the woman she had bought“I’m afraid I don’t quite understand high Luna,” She said nervously as her eyes began to dart to the edge of the room and she bit her lip nervously.I folded my arms upon my considerably bigger belly and narrowed my eyes at her.“What’s your name girl?” I asked slowly.“Imogen High Luna,’ She responded with her head bowed.“And are you sure about the lady you bought before me today?” I asked her with a ra

    Chapter 185I blinked in shock as the name washed over me. Maliya wasn’t so frozen, she jumped out of her seat in alarm and yelled for the guards.“Good afternoon queen of queens,” The man greeted me with a bow, unfazed by the guards that burst into the room on Maliya’s command.“What did you say?” I whispered.“Good after-” He replied but I flicked my wrist in irritation.“No-Not that one. The name. What did you say?” I asked again as a chill ran down my spine.“Neha, High Luna. That is my daughter’s actual name. She just prefers to be called Star,” He explained.I let out a sigh of relief I didn’t know I had been holding and Maliya waved the guards away warily.“I don’t trust him. Let’s pick someone else,” She whispered in my ear as she sat back down.I shook my head slightly and whispered back.“Can’t you feel the power in the air? I have a feeling that we have found the man for the job,” “Star? That’s a unique name. Why do you think your father can do what I need him to do?” I a

    Chapter 186 I blinked in surprise at her rudeness and turned to face Minna. “When did she arrive?” “Just now, Queen of queens,” She replied, looking as shocked as I felt. A part of me really wanted to eavesdrop and find out what was so urgent she had rushed back but I knew, I wouldn’t hear anything even if I tried. “It’s late, queen of queens. Please you need to rest,” Minna said with concern in her voice as she held my arm and gently began to guide me away from the front of Arnou’s study. “Let’s go to Veneufer’s nursery,” I whispered. She looked like she wanted to argue but thought better of it. If Arnou can sleep wherever he wants, I too should be able to sleep where bings me peace. Without a bath or outfit change, Minna led me to Veneyfer’s nursery. It was cold and had only a cot sized bed. But I didn’t care. As long as the sheets smelled vaguely of her, I was fine. “Wait,” I said to Minna as she turned to leave. The drawing I had folded in my bodice was poking me as a c

    EPILOGUE Narrator’s POV The woman floated around the ballroom in the arms of her beloved and surrounded by her pack members. Her subjects for she was their sovereign and their High Luna. Her heartbeat thundered with that of her husband. He was happy, she could feel it. So why wasn’t she content? Why did a niggling feeling seem to burrow away at the back of her mind? “My love? Are you okay?” The lycan asked as he focused his attention on her. “Yes, Just. I need some air. Please walk with me,” Daciana requested as she dropped her arm from Arnou’s shoulder and held on to his arm. . “Of course,” Arnou replied. No questions asked. Together, they walked out of the ballroom, their absence causing slight worry in a red-haired girl and her friend. “Do you feel a bit better now?” Arnou asked her as they walked down the palace hallway hand in hand. “Hmm. It’s just, we haven’t had this much peace and happiness in so long. Am I crazy, if I feel like it’s not permanent?” A slight frown

She was supposed to have some time to name her babies and hold and say goodbyes and…and…I pushed a trembling Alisa from me blindly as I crawled toward the burning figure in the middle of the dungeon.She didn’t even scream!Loud roars of anger resounded throughout the room as the Lycan sped into the dungeon and went straight for his burning wife.How could she do this?She burned brightly, with the flames so hurt that they charred my skin as I crawled towards her.As I screamed, cried, and sobbed, I vaguely registered someone wrapping their arms around my waist to keep me from reaching her.They didn’t have much success with the Lycan as he ran headfirst into the fire like it was water and held onto his burning bride.As I cried, I realized where the air should have been fil

    Chapter 223Narrator’s POVThe night was dark and the prison cell was cold yet the girl didn’t shiver or whimper. She stood with her arms chains and a resigned look on her face.The goddess knows this time she tried. She had looked on as everyone dropped to their knees and begged her. And even though she had dreamt, for months of the day they would all recognize that they wronged her, In that moment, all she felt was genuine worry that her best efforts wouldn’t be enough.It seems almost ironic, as she had been a proud, confidant general, Second only to the lycan and primed to be his high Luna. But living about those dreadful humans for months would do that to anyone. They would grate at you until all your confidence faded away.She knew the golden-haired woman wouldn’t die. She had taken measures against that a while ago but looking into the fearful faces of what had once been her family, Herley decided to scrape together what remains of confidence she had left and do her best.And i

    Chapter 222Daciana’s POVI stood in silence as I watched Arnou open my bedroom door weakly.The utter fear and grief on his face when I had agreed to end out marriage kept on replaying in my mind but I shook my head to clear my thoughts.Arnou stepped out into the sitting area and I followed closely behind him.The moment we came out, Maliya pushed herself out of Alisa’s arms and stood up with a fearful look on her face.“Well? What do we do now?” Alisa asked softly as she stood up and threaded her fingers with Maliyas.It gave me great joy to see that they had reconciled.“Nothing. We do nothing but wait fir it all to be over and I take this chance to say goodbye,” I replied her before Arnou could open his mouth to speak.He clenched his hands by his side in anger and I could feel the waves if his emotions and his hurt flooding through me.“But your children? Daciana reconsider this. Maybe there’s something we can do or-“ Danica said with a frown on her face.I walked up to her and

    Chapter 221Daciana’s POVI gasped as Triss yelled and everyone in the room turned to stare at me.Maliya blinked confused but I could already sense the animosity pouring from her at Triss’s announcement as she listened and didn’t hear any heart beating in my chest.“EVERYONE OUT!” Arnou growled suddenly as he pointed at the door.He was afraid. That much I could feel, but he was also incredibly relieved and that brought me small peace.My legs shook as I pulled myself to a seating position and Triss snarled at Arnou angrily.“I left just for a few minutes. What did you do? Where’s Daciana? Why is that thing in her body? She demanded angrily as her eyes flitted to me for a quick second.Hurt racked my body as tears pricked the back of my eyes and I started to speak. To tell Triss something. Anything that would make her know, I wasn’t some strange enemy but Arnou beat me to it.“I SAID LEAVE!” He yelled angrily as the doors of my bedroom swung open and several palace guards rushed in.

    Chapter 220Daciana’s POVIce flooded through my veins as I gave into the darkness. I was gone, drifting afloat in the darkness.Was this how Eva had felt? Was this how she had lived for months? Silenced and immune to the world.“Yes. Someone similar, except I was alone, but you’re not. I’m here with you, and together we’re stronger,” Eva’s soothing voice flooded my brain, and I smiled in ecstasy.Perhaps this place, this dark cocoon, was better after all.The sweet feeling of peace that lingered in my limbs, the love between my wolf and me We were made for this, just the two of us. No one else mattered.“Yes. We are,” I whispered back as a content smile flooded my lips. This place was perfect. Paradise.None of the suffering above could touch us here. Here we were happy and here we would remain-“NO!” The sharp scream of someone cut through my peace, and I blinked violently, disturbed.That wasn’t my wolf! Who was that, and why were they disturbing our peace? Were they trying to take

    Chapter 219Maliya’s PovI groaned weakly as I blinked open my eyelids.“What’s going on?” I croaked to no one in particular.“Here, have some water,” A voice said calmly from my bedside.I sat up slowly and stared at Alisa in shock.She had dark circles under her eyes and looked extremely tired but apart from that, I could almost not tell she had been battling a magic wielding, Vampiric child just hours ago.Wait! What time is it?The last time I had seen Alisa, she had been battling Star by herself while Prince Xavier faced off some other Vampire.The moment Verena died and told me to get Herley for the high Luna, I knew I had to leave before the Vampires finished off Alisa and Xavier and came for me too.I crawled to their horses that they had left unattended, and this one is surprisingly because I have no idea how I achieved such a feat but I dragged my naked and poisoned ass up one horse and held on as hard as I could while the horse raced away.The goddess surely had a hand in m

    Chapter 218Arnou’s PovPower surged through me. Expanding as the warmth of the fire licked at my fingers greedily. For a moment, I feared I was drawing on Daciana’s power too much, and I retracted my hand.It was unmarred, and when I turned my head around to stare at my wife on the bed, she lay unmoving, like the power draw hadn’t affected her at all.I already knew she was powerful, but it just put into perspective just how powerful she is.More confident than the first time, I put my hand into the flame again as the familiar feeling of warmth licked at my fingers. The fire danced like it was alive, and it was relatively easy for me to pluck a piece, almost like breaking off a branch of a tree.I withdrew my hand from the fire, and with the little piece swimming in my palm like mercury, I poured it into the tube and stood to my feet.Everyone in the room, including Herley, watched in surprise. It was almost like she hadn’t expected me to be able to do it.“You stuck your hand into f
