Chapter 001

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

Chapter 002

Eira’s POVTwo months later “ Can you help with cleaning the vases if you're done with your kitchen duty?” Mrs Belinda asked me. “ Sure,” I answered with a smile. Two months had passed after my failed wedding with Alpha Axel and as much as I had reassured everyone close to me that it was alright, I knew they took precautions around me to make sure nothing triggered me. To be honest, it hurts to be in the very same palace I would have been the mistress of, as a maid but it's not like I had a choice. I for one knew that Alpha Axel wouldn't have hesitated to kick me out when our mating ceremony fell through but his late father's words had a play in my stay. And as much as the old Alpha was dead, the ministers respected the wishes he left behind. I probably wouldn't have been able to move on if not for cooking. During my rainy days, I would often cook to relieve stress and of course, all Lilith did was make life harder for me. She did her utmost best to ruin me which

Chapter 003

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

Chapter 004

Eira’s POV I stared at Nina, Lilith’s minion who had dashed out from nowhere and claimed the food I cooked was poisoned. “ What do you mean the food's poisoned?” Axel took the words right from my mouth. “ I watched when Eira was cooking and I noticed how she suspiciously added something, so I decided to check it out once she had gone out. I found out that she added poisonous mushrooms instead of the usual non-harmful mushrooms,” she heaved, her expression that of fear and panic. Someone was trying to sabotage me because I knew I would never poison Lilith not even if I don't like her. She opened a small cloth and showed them some button mushrooms with was the mushroom I used in the soup. Wait… those weren't the mushrooms I bought. These were destroying angels, just then, my heart began to beat faster and faster. Someone was framing me. “ These are the mushrooms I found in the kitchen. They are destroying angels and you can ask any top chef here, they'll be able

Chapter 005

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

Chapter 006

Eira's POV Disjointed images flickered behind my eyelids - a grimy alleyway, the sting of a fresh wound, a kind face hovering above me. Then, blinding white, hushed voices, and the overwhelming warmth of a hand wrapped in mine. A throbbing pain pierced through my shoulder, dragging me back to reality with a gasp. My vision drifted, the sterile room tilting at an alarming angle. "Easy there, Cleo," a gentle voice soothed.Cleo? The unfamiliar name sent a jolt through me. Faint memories surfaced - a cheerful fishmonger, a grand palace, bewildered faces staring down at me. I was in the Imperial Infirmary, that much was clear from the hushed tones and the starched white sheets. I had fainted due to my wounds after the revelation of my true identity. The Emperor and Empress had a worried expression on their faces. Was my condition really that bad? I sincerely didn't want to worry them more than I already have. Overwhelmed, my vision blurred, the room tilting once

Chapter 007

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

Chapter 008

Eira's POV My eyes rested on the Grand Cross son. He had wine red hair and intimidating amber eyes with a tall muscular body - he had a medium build so he was just right. He stood beside the Grand Duke's son. His tan skin complimented his hair and eye color so perfectly. Mom must have noticed my fascination which made her clear her throat to get my attention. “ Cleo, this is Kia Charlemagne, a Grand Commander and the son of the Grand Cross. And this is Anakin Valois, the son of the Grand Duke as well as a Grand Commander,” mom introduced. Grand Commander? At their age? My jaw dropped slightly. Kia looked barely older than twenty-four and same goes for Anakin. How did they achieve that at this age? My eyes settled on Anakin. I hadn't taken a proper look at him because I was so lost in Kia’s handsomeness - not that I mean anything by that. On the other hand, Anakin was the total opposite of Kia. He was slender and had a feminine look to him, maybe that had so

Chapter 009

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

Chapter 010

Eira's POV The next week I heard my door swing open violently but I couldn't be bothered to see who it was. Well, I could already guess. My parents wouldn't do such and no maid could do the only person it can be is… “ Your Highness! You're going to be late!” Mona exclaimed, breathless. “ Urgh! I don't have anything doing, my tutors aren't coming today either,” I groaned, snuggling up my duvet. “ Are you really going back to sleep again? Do you even know what today is?” Mona asked frustrated. I was genuinely the one frustrated at this point because she was interrupting my sleep. “ It's a day in the week. Happy?” “ Argh! Sometimes, you can be so…impossible,” she groaned. She didn't say anything for a few seconds, she was probably calming herself. I couldn't be bothered right now. “ Today is Monday. Did you forget you are to have classes with Sir Kia?” She reminded calmly. “ What did you just say?” I sat up like a log of wood. “ You've been daydreaming about Sir Kia f
