“Put a price on emotion. Maybe then I could afford a minute of happiness.”Daisy’s POVI stood quietly watching the crowd welcome Astrid. “She is a beaut, isn’t it?” A voice said behind me.I jumped startled by the presence behind me, “goddess” I muttered.“Sorry, I tend to do that a lot,” the girl continued.“I’ve been told countless times that I should wear a bell around my neck but that would take the F right out of the fun,” she rattled.“Oh look at that, already yapping like a dog,” she laughed smacking her head.“Hi, I am Priya, you can call me Priya,” she finally introduced herself.“I’m Dai…”“ Daisy, I know, I mean everyone has heard of you, I must say your beauty supersedes your tale,” she stated, cutting me off.She must have noticed the grimace on my face, “no, no, I meant that in a good way, a few people are excited about the prospect of you being the Luna but the others, eh lets just call them the headless bunch,” she rambled.“I’m making it worse, aren’t I?” she sighed.

“Nothing I have, is truly mine.”Daisy’s POVOne thing was certain, Hades’ kingdom had a different dynamic from my pack. Miss Amy was like a mother figure to the maids in the servant quarters. She wasn’t as cold as miss Ruth had been.“Priya will show you to your room, breakfast is by six, during breakfast your duty will be read out to you” miss Amy said.“Thank you,” I replied, turning away from her.Our footsteps echoed against the cold tiles as we moved, the servant quarters looked exquisite like it was a castle.“This is bigger than my room in our pack,” I said, my eyes taking in the size of the room. The bathroom was twice of my former room.“I can’t imagine,” Priya said, shuddering like the thought had scared her.“So are these all your things,” she asked, pointing to the duffel bag that rested by the door.“Yes, that’s me,” I sighed.There wasn’t much from the pack to carry, I had lived my life like it was on rent, each day a fleeting uncertainty of what could have wouldn’t be

“In the middle of the night, it’s like a million stars are spelling your name, drawing you to me,” Daisy’s POV My broken sob woke me up, I could still feel the strain in my throat from screaming for my mother. With shaky hands I scrubbing of the tear streak that had lined on my face. I looked outside the window, the sky was decorated by stars, it was enchanting to see. “It’s just a bad dream,” I muttered to myself. It was perfectly normal to think I saw my mother in my dream. I mean I had just kissed her picture goodnight, it was pretty obvious I had been lucid dreaming. The hairs on my neck stood in alert, my senses screaming in warning, that I wasn’t alone. I slowly turned my gaze from the window, my eyes taking the shadowy figure that stood in the corner of the room. I scrambled out of the bed, screaming as I tried to rush towards the bathroom door. My assailant stood perfectly blocking the only door that lead to the corridor, my feet tangled with the bed covers,

“Give me a break, a girl isn’t young forever.”Daisy’s POVThe universe sure had a great sense of humor.“Daisy, you are in charge of cleaning the Alpha King’s bedroom,” miss Amy said.I choked on the water I was sipping, causing me to go into a coughing fit. Just on my first day of resuming I am given such a great task.No one needed to tell me that Astrid’s hand was in on this. I could sense their curious glances, watching intently to see what I would do.After I had calm down from my fit, I smiled through my teeth, “Okay Miss Amy,”If they thought they would see my cry, they should think again, my tear duct had dried up since last night.Miss Amy nodded, her eyes with pity as she addressed me “Jade would show you were the cleaning supplies are kept.”I turned my head to the direction she had pointed, in search of Jade, my eyes met with cold hazel colored ones. Her lips curled up in a snare.“great,” I mumbled, my appetite long forgotten.With a groan I stood up from the chair, walk
The Rejected Luna CHAPTER 14
“Anger and agony are better than misery.”Daisy’s POVI couldn’t wipe away the smug look on Astrid’s face from my mind.“If you do find my panties, discard it, Hades likes ripping things off,” her voice taunted my mind.My fingers had turned numb from how hard I had scrubbed the ground, hoping to drown out her voice.The same lips that had kissed me was the same lips that brought her pleasure, tears prickled in my eyes as I pictured what had happened on the bed.I tried holding breath as I changed the sheets, I didn’t need to abuse my senses with what was avoid.I kept on chatting in my head to hold it in together till I was safely tucked in my bed in the servants quarters.The door opened again, my heart dropped in my chest, I crossed my fingers praying it wasn’t Hades, I wasn’t ready to face him.The sound of Lyra and Astrid chattering could be heard as they moved in, I released the breath I was holding.I could handle them, but Hades was on another spectrum of I will lose my mind.

“Did I cross the line? Where was the sign?”Daisy’s POVWho knew gardening would be so therapeutic?The grounding sensation I felt as my fingers dug into the soil, made me feel connected to the earth and my mind seemed to be a tad bit quiet when I am here.The garden was coming along nicely, it was pretty easy to get lost in it when literally no one ever came around these parts.Miss Amy had been able to take me off cleaning duty. I had gotten used to spending most of my days in the garden and the evenings by a lake I had recently discovered.Hades kingdom was truly magnificent, from the architecture to the topography, I found myself lost in its beauty. The stories told of his kingdom was utterly understated.The garden had become a form of escape, my sanctuary away from everything around me.I might be biased but I totally enjoy pruning the leaves, it was like playing dress up but instead of using humans, I use plants instead.Priya was hard to track, it was funny how such a loud bun

“If I tried to kiss the pain away, would it undo the hurt I caused?”Daisy’s POV“What happened to the Luna?” I asked, my fingers wrapped around my mother’s locket.Priya frowned, “she was killed by the Rogue Alpha Alec.”My heart pounded painfully in my chest “how?”Priya’s eyes were filled with sadness, a tear rolled down her cheeks, “I can’t really remember most of it, I was really young then but the day Luna Grace had died Hades lost everything.”I could feel the raw pain in her words, my heart shattered, “she was his best friend, he got it lucky, my mom had always said, he was mated to his best friend,” Priya continued.“I didn’t know,” I muttered, my voice barely a whisper, my heart felt like it was stomped on, “I didn’t know,” I repeated.“the garden?” I choked out the question. Unsure if I was ready to hear the response I was going to get.“Hades had given it to her as their first anniversary gift just a few days before she was killed,” Priya said.I shot up to my feet, my eye
The Rejected Luna CHAPTER 17
“Locked in the vault of bittersweet memories.”Daisy’s POVIt was like I had I had boldly painted my face with letter ‘A’ dripping in red ink.My feet dragged on the ground, my shoulders hung low as I walked the walk of shame.Curious eyes glanced my way, it was like they could see what I had just done. I needed to be back in the safe corners of my room.“Watch it,” a voice growled, roughly shoving my shoulder. I staggered, my eyes meeting the cold fiery eyes of Jade.She had a smirk on her face like she knew something I didn’t know, “sorry,” I whispered absentmindedly.I was only holding on to a thin string, I needed to be away from their eyes before I broke down completely.Shutting the door firmly behind me, I turned surprised to find Priya sitting on my bed.Her presence brought every emotion to the surface. I dropped to my knees a loud sob broke through me.My eyes bled out my pain and my mouth worded out my sorrows. Priya’s arms wrapped me, squeezing me tight.“breathe through i
