All Chapters of Moonlit Monarch: A Duology: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

It had been exactly two years since I became queen of the werewolf kingdom and my beta, gamma, and alphas had all advised me to get a husband. A chosen mate. But they didn’t know it wasn’t easy for me. Choosing a mate on my own wasn’t as easy as they made it out to be. I had to be careful. If I chose the wrong one, I’d be stuck with him for the rest of my life. Tonight, they held a ball to help me find a suitable man to make my mate and husband. I was a nervous wreck to put it lightly. As Melody worked magic on my face, I sat still, worried. She didn’t seem to notice as she continuously applied powder to my face. “I’m so glad you agreed to this.” She coated my lips red. “We can finally get you a mate.” “I don’t want a mate, yet,” I told her. She paused. “You’re not getting younger, V. You need to get a mate and have pups with him. You need someone to take over from you like you did your father.” “I’m not ready to be a mother, Mel.” My eyes trailed down to her stomach. She was carr

By the end of the ball, Maya, Logan, Melody and Carter were pissed at me. The four of them were in my room, arms crossed, and tapping their feet to a rhythm. It was as if they choreographed how they were going to stand before coming in.“Are you just going to keep staring at me?” I asked, scrolling through my phone.“What happened tonight, V?” Maya voiced out her thought.I lifted my eyes from my phone and to her face. “What do you mean?”“Don’t fucking play dumb with me.” She pointed a finger at me. “You,” she said, “Who was that man? Your boyfriend we don’t know of?”“Whoa.” I dropped my phone on the bed. “Easy there, miss. Caelum is not my boyfriend. Just a friend.”“What about the other guy?” Carter questioned.“What guy?”I hoped they were talking about Leonardo and not Mavros. Darn, thinking about Leonardo made my blood boil. Power greedy dick.“The one you went into your room with.”Maya and Melody gasped. I was fucked. I didn’t think anyone would be upstairs becaus

“Valeria, are we still besties?” Mel questioned, throwing on a brown tee shirt.I came to her room after getting ready for the pack run. I was in black sweatpants and a white tank top. Right now, I wished I hadn’t come into her room in the first place since she was making me answer questions.“Yes, Mel. We are and always will be besties.” I answered.“Then why don’t we share stuff? You no longer tell me anything.”“Of course I do.”“No, you don’t.” She argued. “I don’t even know you anymore.”I hated pregnant Melody. She got emotional easily and threw temper tantrums. The Melody I knew seven months ago wasn’t like this. Pregnancy was changing her and, in my opinion, for the worse.“What have I not told you?” I asked, knowing fully well I’d regret it.“Everything.” She threw her hands up.“You’re exaggerating.”She glared at me. “I’m exaggerating?”“Sorry.”She pulled her hair up into a ponytail. “I forgive you. Now spill the beans, Val. Tell me the truth. Who is that man? Tyrion? Who i

When I woke up, I was well rested and pissed off. Mavros forced me to sleep. I got out of bed and went to my window first. I pushed the curtains aside. It was sunset, and he wasn’t back. Why did I even think he would be back?“Oh, you’re awake.” Mavros said, coming into my room. “I thought you’d sleep for much longer.”I guess I was wrong. “Were you able to take Zariya back to the spirit realm?”“I’m going to put this as softly as I can.” He sat on my bed. “No, I could not and did not take her back to the spirit realm.”“What?”“Calm down.”I stood in front of him. “Calm down? You want me to calm down?”“I believe I said that.”“I can’t calm down!” I kicked my bed. “How do you expect me to calm down when she could barge in here and say something?”“You make it sound as though you committed a crime.”“You don’t understand.” I sat beside him. “I’m afraid of what she can do. Who knows what she’s capable of?”“I

ASPRO’S POINT OF VIEWRealm of the gods {Alynthi} As I watched her sit beside her Beta in a hospital room, my heart ached. She didn’t deserve this. Neither did the innocent man who lay weakly on the bed. I didn’t understand Zariya’s anger and reason for harming Logan, and she wouldn’t tell me or my brother. Before Mavros went in search of Zariya, I had found her leaving a pack after checking if Valeria was there.When I first set my eyes on her, I was afraid of what she had become. After they split her, her usual blue eyes turned amber and her black hair turned gray. It was supposed to remain that way in the spirit realm, but she somehow managed to get access to Ichor and she drank it. Her hair and eye color had returned to what I knew, but she had a crazed look in her eyes. She was after something and knowing Zariya, she wouldn’t stop until she had gotten it.It was one thing that remained in Valeria today. During the time when Mavros was supposed to destroy her kind, she
