"Come closer, don’t you trust me?" Of course I trusted him. I loved him. He was my betrothed mate, so I took a step toward him. His hands wrapped around my waist, just a feet away from the vast, unfeeling ocean. The wind whipped through my hair, and for a moment, I felt freedom. Then, suddenly, his grip loosened, and I fell, the cold sting of the ocean floor swallowing me whole. Darkness followed. Elowen, Princess of the Moonshire Pack, is to marry Thorne Blackwood—a bond meant to unite two powerful families. But on her wedding night, she is betrayed, cast into the depths by the man she trusted the most. The Moon Goddess offers her a second chance, but there is a costly price. Elowen must lose all memory of who she once was and begin anew. Taken as a slave to the Bloodhowl Kingdom, Elowen has no recollection of her past… or the immense power she harbors. But her beauty and sharp mind quickly capture the attention of Damien, the ruthless Lycan King of the Bloodhowls. As fragments of her old life resurface, Elowen must choose: Remain as Queen Luna of the Bloodhowls, or reclaim her throne as Queen Luna of the Moonshires, and avenge her family’s death at the hands of the man who betrayed her. But can she face Thorne Blackwood again, even if it means risking everything?
Lihat lebih banyakMontanne’s POVI trailed my fingers from his lips down to his chest. His heavy breathing brushed lightly against my skin.He was all mine—the Mighty King Damien—and I would die before I let him go to another woman.I stood up and covered myself with my robe. He seemed tired, so I let him sleep and get some rest while I took a bath and got dressed.I left him in the chambers quietly and went to the courtroom.Today was a special day because I was expecting some of the court ladies from BloodHowl for a tea party.I was going to be the Luna of this pack, so I obviously needed to mingle, get to know the women of the court, and gain their favor.To become a court lady, a woman’s husband had to be part of the King's chambermen—a close group of advisors he relied on.If I gained favor with the court ladies, they could convince their husbands, the chambermen, that I was right for Damien, ensuring there would be no opposition on their part.I would have a very smooth ride to the throne, right
Elowen's POVI felt the warmth of his hands lifting me up from the cold floor and carrying me out of the prison walls.It all seemed blurry now. Maybe it was just a dream.I tried to sit up and look around, but that slight movement only sent a searing pain across my back. I winced and laid back down."Easy now honey" a stern voice came through from beside my bed. I turned to look at who it was.My vision was still a bit blurry, but I could make out his orange hair and golden eyes. Those features seemed familiar.And that voice...I felt my hands on the bed. It was soft and the sheets scented of roses. The room was dimly lit and I smelled burning incense and herbal medicines. This was certainly not the maid's quarters.I blinked rapidly trying to clear the haze from my vision. The man beside me shifted and I felt his golden eyes watching over me."I was really worried about you Elda." Even though I recognized the voice, it came softer than I remembered."I'm sorry I couldn't protect yo
Damien's POVI needed to find a way to control myself, but each time my eyes rested on her body which was scarred and stained with blood, fury rose within me like a storm."Who are you?" She asked, her voice was barely above a whisper and her lips trembled.Who was I?Of course I was the King of BloodHowl, the ruler of a pack greatly feared across the lands, but she didn't need to know that. That wasn't what she needed. Right now, she didn't need a King, she needed a protector. She needed me to protect her.Without answering, I lifted her up gently, careful not to aggravate her wounds. Her arms were fragile and wrapped around my neck. I suddenly felt a strange sense of possessiveness stir within me.She was light, too light. It was as if she hadn't eaten anything proper for days.The mere thought of it angered me further. Had she been treated so harshly in my own Kingdom?I carried her through the dimly lit halls and ignored the whispers and stares of the servants. They couldn't dar
ELOWEN'S POVIt didn't take long before I was surrounded by guards pointing their swords at me.Montanne wrapped herself tightly to cover her body as the guards came in."Help me. Help me please!" She screamed as tears streamed from her eyes. She looked so helpless and defenseless, not at all like the woman who was just about to strangle me."Please help me! This thief came into my chamber and started searching for what to steal" she sobbed profusely "when I came out and she saw me, she wanted to attack me before I screamed"A slow knowing smile curved at the corner of her lips, so small that only I would notice.The guards looked at her with so much pity, like she was some fragile egg.I was about to open my mouth to defend myself, but I quickly shut it when they glared at me with all their fury.Before I could process what was going on, I felt two hefty hands grab my arms and I was being pulled away from Montanne's room."No! I didn't do anything. It was a mistake" I pleaded, but my
Damien's POVI continued to walk further down the hallway, searching for Montanne's chambers.She had requested to see me quite a while ago now, and I was sure she would have been impatiently waiting for me.But I wasn't disturbed at all. Deep down I was glad I couldn't find her room. I needed some air. I needed to think.Montanne always had one request or another when I went to meet her, but right now, as much as I hated to admit it, another woman was on my mind.That girl.Who was she?No woman had ever spoken to me like that in my entire life. Not even when I was a prince, and the last one at that.But she looked right into my eyes and insulted me. She obviously had no idea who I was, no idea that I was the King, meaning she wasn't from here.Could she be the servant Rhea requested to stay in the Palace?But that couldn't be possible. The robe she was wearing was made of pure silk and embroidered. Those were not clothes a servant could afford.Then who was she?And why did I feel
Elowen's POVI stared at the man standing in front of me. My eyes ran through his red hair and piercing eyes which remained fixed on mine.He was...beautiful, if that was even an appropriate term to use for a man.He had long lashes and a round smooth face that was perfectly sculpted.His slender body was so close to me and he was tall enough to look down on my hair and I had to tilt my head slightly to meet his gaze.I squeezed my robe...I mean...his shirt as close to my body as I possibly could. My heart raced so quickly, for a moment I thought I could actually hear it beating. The room began to feel colder all of a sudden."I asked you a question, and you haven't answered me" he said stepping even closer, forcing me to move back."I...I was told by the other girls that this was my room" I managed to say "I think it must have been a misunderstanding"A deep rich laugh burst from his lips, completely unexpected and taking me by surprise."Those girls can be very mischievous" he said,
MONTANNE'S POVI came from nothing.No wealth, no power, no throne.I was the princess of the WhiteCrescent Pack and we were once feared by all the packs across the seven seas.Our name was spoken with great honor by our allies and sent chills down the spines of our enemies.But that was a long time ago, I wasn't even born yet.Our forces slowly began weakening and rogues started infiltrating and plundering our resources.Unfortunately, the very day I was brought into the world, there was a massive rogue attack on our Pack and they took all we had.They raped the women and killed many of the wolf warriors. My mother died protecting me. It was almost as if the moon goddess had turned her back on us.My father mated a Luna from a strong Pack who became my stepmother, but even that couldn't save us from the mess we were in.For me, it only made matters worse. I became a princess who lived as
Damien's POVI stood and watched over the large expanse of land before me.BloodHowl KingdomJust as it's name was, it was built on the blood of thousands of wolves. Strong warriors who laid down their lives to protect their families, and now it was mine to protect.My father had handed his empire to me even though I was not the first son, and not the rightful heir.But I was the only son who fought side by side with him, almost losing my life more than a few times.I was the only one who didn't spend all my time in the Harem, impregnating women that were not my mate, but rather I studied the politics and war strategies that BloodHowl was run on.My thoughts went back to the day my Father was on his death bed and called for all his sons. I was the last son and nowhere near the throne, but he called me forward and placed the Lycan crown on my head.I could almost physically feel the fury of my elder bro
There was silence for a few seconds after the man yelled that he had an order from the King."Well? Have you gone dumb? What are Damien's orders?" princess Montanne snapped impatiently.I stole a glance at her and regretted it quickly as she caught my eyes again with a disgusted look on her face.The man cleared his throat, not even looking in Montanne's direction."King Damien" he continued, with emphasis on 'King' to hint to Montanne that the fact that she was his betrothed mate didn't give her the right to address him by his first name "has requested to see Merchant Rhea immediately"Montanne's eyes widened in shock as Rhea made her way to the door."Don't you dare enter that room!" Montanne yelled, stopping Rhea in her tracks. Her chest was rising and falling as she fumed. "The King is in meditation and must not see anyone. I am the one attending to all the Royal matters and I command Merchant Rhea to leave now!""Princess M
Elowen's POVI winced in pain as my maid tightened the corset of my dress. She dragged the ropes so sharply that I could almost feel the content of my stomach giving way. Not that I had anything to eat that morning. I was too nervous to even take a bite out of anything.I stood in front of the mirror, admiring the fitting of the dress. I was clothed in a delicate ivory satin, detailed with silver embroidery. The hem of the dress was laced with precious stones, but none of the stones were as precious as the day was to me.I struggled to sit down, my stomach tightly snatched, as my maid styled my white hair into soft waves. My makeup was lightly done, adding a touch of red to my lips.I am Elowen, princess of MoonShire Pack. And today, I am going to be Queen Luna after I marry Thorne Blackwood.Just thinking about it made my heart beat faster. The wedding was a very private one, only few people were invited. Thorne strictly supervised the guest list himself, inviting my brother, few o...
