The Rejected Luna’s Revenge

Eira’s POV March 14th, 1725 was the day I had long awaited. Today was the day I become Luna. Werewolves were expected to find their wolf once they turned twenty-two and today was exactly that day. I was going to wolf out during the official mating ceremony between me and my betrothed - the Alpha. “ You look gorgeous today, Lady Eira,” the maids who helped me with my makeup and dress complimented. “ That's thanks to you all though,” I appreciated. “ I'm super excited for you! You've waited so long for this day so how do you feel? Excited or nervous?” Mrs Belinda, the head maid asked. “ Both, I think,” I answered nervously. I was excited to finally be married to Alpha Axel but nervous because I was to wolf out in front of the entire pack. The thought of everything that was to happen this night under the full moon came with a new type of pressure but it didn't matter if that was all it takes to be with Axel. “ Sure, you are! Who wouldn't be?!” She exclaime

Eira’s POVThe day of the banquet I still found it unreal that Alpha Axel would assign such an important task of preparing and supervising the cooking for such an important day event. “ For the first time, Alpha Axel doesn't seem to be blind. He finally looked past your previous relationship and recognized your talent,” Lara squealed in excitement still living in the bliss of such an appointment. “ I appreciate how happy you are for me but at this rate, you'll get the appointment revoked,” I sighed, tired of explaining to her not to voice out every thought. “ Alright, no need to get mad. I will do my best to ensure that my mouth doesn't put you into trouble after all, you've worked your butt off for this,” she drew an invisible zipper in front of her lips. “ Thank you,” I muttered. How exactly was I going to explain that I didn't cook so eagerly and earnestly to get kitchen duty or spearhead any special event? That was just me channeling my frustrations and p

Eira’s POV My heart pounded hard against my chest as I sprinted across the dense forest, my own ragged breathing echoing in my ears. The air was thick with the scent of pine needles and damp earth, and the sound of my hasty footsteps mingling with the rustling of leaves. I could hear the sound of horses chasing after me. “ Find her and kill her!” The general’s voice echoed through the near silent forest. Tears streamed down my cheeks as fear gripped me. I didn't want to die, at least not now. “ Could I really outrun them?” I pondered as I ran as fast as I could. Lara had given me a map but there wasn't any time to look at it. “ Captain! I've found her!” One of the knights yelled and the next thing I heard was a wheezing sound. I fell to the ground as my leg gave in and an arrow went past my face and stuck into a tree - that had been the wheezing sound I had heard. My breath became more unsteady as I panicked, I stood up still dazed by what had happened, my

Eira's POV I was lying on the bed, scrutinizing the detailed ceiling with a mixture of worry and excitement . This was the night; the one where I was to be presented to the empire officially as its princess. It has been a month since I had arrived in this gilded cage, learning grace in etiquette, dancing and history for thirty days. The idea of standing in front of the imperial court whose members would expectantly stare at me made shivers run down my spine . Yet, I felt a bit thrilled to be in this situation. “Princess Cleo,” Mona’s voice, soft and kind, pulled me away from my thoughts. “Are you hearing what I am saying?” I blinked at her worried expression. Mona, who was my maid-in-waiting, had become something more than just a servant to me. We grew close nearly instantly, she was sincere and yet not easily swayed. I could tell she genuinely liked me for who I am not my title. In many ways she had become both an advisor and my reference point, you could say we had be

Eira's POV This was getting awkward, especially for me. With the gaze of the whole empire on I and Kia, I regretted my choice. I might have been able to endure this if he didn't look at me with those piercing eyes of his like that. “ Just kill me,” I muttered. “ Huh? You want me to dance with you? What makes you think I'd agree to that?” He snapped. I knew I shouldn't have acted impulsively. “ T-that's…” I stuttered. How was I going to explain him that I didn't even pre-plan what just happened!? “ First, you have me become your personal guard and trainer just because you're the princess and now you want to make me your dance partner. You've got to be kidding me,” he scoffed. I knew my parents had ruined his image of me. “ Well, I'm here for the sauce,” Anakin watched in amusement rather than help resolve. What was I really expecting from him? He was clearly acting exactly how I had assumed he would. “ Are you going to use your position or the
