All Chapters of The Luna's Promise: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

[That man's POV] "You know what tomorrow is?" "Yes, the 19th of May." "I asked what day tomorrow is, not the date." "Look at the calendar. Surely, it would come to Coven House." Ace Denzell was drinking his wine and replying rudely to Rook Theia. She was stunned by his words. "I'm not in the mood for fun right now Denzell," said calmly."Ace Denzell," he said while holding her arm tightly, "you are just a Rook and called me by my name. Have you forgotten your place? You are not my wife yet. You understand." He let go of her arm with a jerk."Ace Denzell, we are getting married tomorrow," Rook Theia said in a low voice, as if she was about to cry. But he didn't answer her and quietly started sipping his wine."At first, you were not like that. You..."Ace Denzel replied bitterly, interrupting her. "I don't want to marry you, and I never wanted to.""If you didn't want to get married, then why did you do that to me? Why did you take me in your arms that day?" Rook, Theia tried to remin

[That man's POV] After Lowell left, Ms. Anastasia sat and cried by Emily's body for a while. Her crying face looked like a ghost in the white light of the room. She was in her nightgown, hair wild, and clothes rumpled from the crying fit that had followed his abrupt departure. The tears she had shed only minutes ago felt fresh on her cheeks. She had been through so much already – loss, death, pain… all for nothing.Why now? What good had come of it all after twenty years of trying to build a life where she could be happy with her and where her granddaughter would never know the pain she was experiencing now?The tears came again, as if some invisible force were squeezing her heart and making her lungs burn. Her whole body shook from the effort of keeping them down, but there was no escaping the pain. She then got up and took out the cake from the fridge. "Look at these red mooncakes, you liked them a lot. Today, I have brought a special one for you. Happy birthday, Emily, my darling.

[That man's POV] Pawns are decorating the coven house with red curtains and flowers. They're getting ready for a wedding. There will be cake and wine, and they will sing. Everyone will have fun, and everyone will remember this wedding in their memories. However, it is not the kind of fun that people enjoy on a regular basis anymore. They are preparing to celebrate something very special. Something that no one has celebrated in hundreds of years. A celebration that has only come once every millennium in history."Why have they all started working early this morning? The wedding is in the evening," Rook Theia asked, seeing all the pawns working."There is something more important in this coven than your marriage, Theia," said Bishop Eloise. "And why do you make such a noise when you wake up in the morning?""Rook Theia," she said, repeating her name."Your whole life is to be spent reminding others of your name," said Bishop Eloise with a sarcastic laugh."Whatever, bitch. I don't wan

[That man's POV] Ms. Anastasia started to look at the thread tied on her left foot, which was tied after doing the witch rituals. "Just a few more hours," she thought while running her fingers on the thread and looked up back in the mirror, carefully. Very carefully, she was sitting each image in her mind, as if it might be the last time to see herself like this.And for the first time in her life, she wasn't looking good. She didn't have anything to hide anymore. She was free from hiding. Her long hair was loose again, not pinned in a tight bun, showing off the natural color. Her pale, soft skin was exposed without any kind of makeup."Don't be afraid. You have to fight for Emily, for your children, for your village," Ms. Anastasia said to her reflection. She tried not to sound sad because she wanted to give strength to her words and make them sound believable. She had to do everything to convince herself that this wasn't all fake."You are a mother. You can do that without any fear

[That man's POV] During the daytime, Nagosia forest looks like an endless maze of thick trunks and tall, slender trees that are just as hard to navigate through as the rest of it. The grass has been cut into long thin strips by thousands of years of frost and snowfall, and the trees have become so tall that they can almost reach through the clouds. There are no flowers in bloom yet, but the ground is filled with them. The sunlight cannot enter through leaves or branches here. This is the perfect place for a man with his mind and heart set on finding a lover to spend eternity with, but Eta Wolf Suzette was sitting alone there.As he saw Eta Wolf Suzette sitting alone in the Nagosia forest, even with just a glimpse of her face, it was enough to send shivers through his body. The feeling of adrenaline pumped throughout his body. His heartbeat increased so quickly that he could feel it reverberate in his throat. Even then, she didn’t see him as he slowly approached her. She sat there, st
