Chapter 75

I took my shower quickly, I had no desire to spend too much time under the cold water.

I still felt some cold thing underneath my lines that made me shiver.

I turned off the shower head and wrapped myself in a fluffy bath towel hanging on a hook.

My entire body felt strange like it belonged to me but didn't at the same time. I wasn't going to let Arnou know how I felt though. He was already worried enough, I didn't want to add to his worries.

I could hear whispers coming from my room before I entered it. I stood outside for a beat and closed my eyes, trying to discern the people in the room.

Granny was saying something I could hear her voice, Arnou was definitely there. They were arguing about sorts.

As soon as I pushed open the door of my room and entered inside, the whispering stopped.

They all looked at me weirdly but I ignored their strange looks of concern.

Lea got a bathrobe the moment she saw me and opened it up for me to wear.

That was when I realized, I had come i

    I was still feeling moody minutes after Alisa left my room. However, I couldn't shake the feeling that I had wasted too much time. It was logical though, I mean the more time wasted after the wedding, the more stale any clues we might have had would go.I sat at my desk, going over the books Gabriel had delivered to me. Arnou must have read them all by now, yet it didn't seem like he had new information to share with me.I understand that he's worried about my health. Talking about conspiracy theories is probably the last thing on his mind. But Herley is dangerous and she's still in the palace. I might have given up if I knew for sure that she would stop at poisoning me.But I had no way of knowing that she wouldn't step over everyone in her attempt to claim Arnou as hers.I had waited too long for my happily ever after and I was ready to fight for the love and acceptance I had found with Arnou.I took out a piece of paper and began to write down all the people who had died on Herl

    Chapter 77The first thing I observed was the pungent smell of piss.I gagged disgusted, don't they get chamber pots here?As I walked downstairs I realized I had no idea what the living conditions of the dungeons were like.I had condemned Nikkini to a temporary life here without knowing what the place looked like.Tears welled up in my eyes as I entered through the tiny door at the base of the stairway.The guards on duty seemed confused at my presence but seemed to recognize my royal guards.They bowed before me and greeted in unison.“Good day, Queen of Queens,” I couldn't bear to speak, I felt so many emotions rising inside me.If I did this to Nikkini didn't that make me as bad as her? I waves their greeting off and began to walk deeper into the cells.I didn't say a word but they knew the prisoner I wanted to see and led me to her silently.I stood in front of her cell for a few minutes before I realized that I had arrived at my destination.Nikkini lay on the floor, or at le

    Chapter 78Arnou lay flat on the bed sleeping with all his clothes on. He looked so tired and cute while sleeping that I couldn't help but feel guilty. He probably hadn't gotten much sleep, not with me being poisoned and randomly passing out.I walked up to him tiredly and gently tugged off his shoes, then I rolled him over and covered him up with the duvet on the bed.I was careful to not touch him for longer than necessary. Once I was satisfied with the way he was resting, I walked up to his bath chamber and washed my face clean with water.Arnou, Alisa, Nikkini, and even the guests were forced to remain in the palace for a ceremony that wasn't confirmed. Everyone was suffering from this entire situation.It needed to end and I was powerless to end it. I kept spending all my time, investigating Herley’s origins even though Alisa was so sure she had been a good person.What if it was all an immense waste of time? I had not made any progress on the whereabouts of the antidote either

    Chapter 79Nafira and I are in a cave. It's cold and terribly wet, we've been on the run for three days now, and despite Nafira’s attempt at cloaking us, Mama's men are too good.They keep on finding us because they know if they return to Mama without us, she'll kill them.On the morning of the day, we escaped, Nafira and I had stayed glued to each other in that smelly stable. Too scared to do anything else but munch on moist bread Nafira had stolen from the chef.At first, the fortress had been quiet, then the chef had gone into the kitchen and cried out in outrage.Within minutes the entire Hottigan fortress was in pandemonium. Amid the commotion, we had snuck into the kitchen wagon and hidden between the supplies that left the fortress.I just got chills whenever I remembered the wrath with which Mama had yelled our names.I knew within me that she wouldn't rest until she found us. I think Nafira knew it too but she liked to pretend like everything was fine.Even now, in this cave

    Chapter 80Arnou had woken up some time while I slept and had sat beside me working on his table.When I woke up with a scream, he jumped up and tried to confirm that everything was alright with me.He kept asking if I was alright but I was still reeling from the epiphany I just had.“Daciana please just say something. I verbally need to know that you’re fine,” Arnou please be with me.I knew this entire situation must be tasking for him. I mean he can’t even touch me to make sure I’m fine.“I’m fine, I’m fine. I just-“ I reassured Arnou as I trailed off and shook my head in an attempt to clear my thoughts.Arnou let out a breath of relief and balanced on the bed beside me.“Bad dream?” He asked quietly.I blinked at him strangely. I could swear I felt sand on my skin and my sweat-soaked dress must have actually been soaked by raindrops from the trees in the woods.“Arnou I need to tell you something. And please I need you to not interrupt me until you’ve heard everything I have to sa

    Chapter 81The door opened and Gabriel walked in followed by a woman. She was dressed in draping skirts and had cowries braided into her hair.I smiled a welcoming smile at her and beckoned them both to come closer.“Good evening Lycan, Queen of queens,” she greeted with a bow.Gabriel bowed before us as well but remained silent.“Thank you, Gabriel, you may leave,” I waved him off.“Hello woman, what's your name?” Arnold asked the lady politely.“Verena, Lycan,” she replied.I could have offered her a seat but I didn't. Arnou and I were both seated while she stood in front of us.It was a simple power tactic I had picked up as Luna of the blood diamond pack.I was being incredibly nice to her but by not offering her a seat, It unconsciously reminded her of her position. “Hello Verena, can you tell us a bit about what you do?” I asked her with a smile.She had no idea why she was here. Gabriel had not briefed her on our questioning. She probably wondered why the Lycan and High Luna

    Chapter 82The room door unlocked and Feyre came inside.I let out a sigh of relief when I saw her. I had almost worn a hole in the carpet from how badly I had been pacing about.Arnou had to repeatedly ask me to sit still because of my legs but I refused.I really wanted everything to come together. Herley was dangerous and I felt uneasy about the fact that she spent all her time with Alisa.It seemed her punishment was more of a punishment for me because I was constantly worried.“Yes? It’s been four days now. What do you have to report ?” I asked her hurriedly, the moment she entered the room.She looked a bit surprised by my small outburst and bowed before Arnou and me.“Good evening Lycan and High Luna,”I pinched the bridge of my nose in mild frustration and Arnou replied to her greeting.“Good evening Feyre. Please tell us, do you have any information for us?” “Yes, I do,” She replied with a smile.“It was hard and suspicious for me to constantly tail her on my own, so I empl

    Chapter 83I sat in front of Nikkini in my wheelchair listening to everything she had to say.But nothing stuck with me, everything she told me, I already knew.Herley had approached her with the plan which was originally to poison the wedding dress I wanted to wear.But Nikkini in her vengeance had cut up all the dresses save one which she deemed ugly enough for me to wear.However, the fabric of that dress was very different from the fabric of the dress Herley had asked her to poison.Hence It absorbed most of the poison and I didn’t die touching the dress.“Nikkini, do you have no idea where she got the poison from? I just need a name. Who could have sold it to her?”I pressured. I was already tired and frankly, I was up very late.All the investigation I had been carrying out had been secret, but if the wrong person spotted me coming out of the dungeon by this time.Then Herley might know that I’m still on the case.“I really don’t know, she did sound like she was going to pick u

    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
