LOOK WHO'S HERE

CHAPTER 21: LOOK WHO'S HERE KAELAN:Everly and I walked into my room and I made her sit on the bed while I pulled a chair and sat opposite her.She looked a bit upset and I tried to guess why. The only explanation I could come up with was my refusal to let her go to battle with me.“You know, Everly, time will come when we'll go to battles together, side by side, defending our throne, our people and our love. But there's no need to rush. You need to learn and be incorporated into our ways of doing things.”When I saw how she shivered, I put a jacket over her shoulders and led her closer to the fireplace. We both felt warm as we sat down by the fireplace, my thumb brushing over her knuckles. "You’re important to me, Everly," I said softly. "I don’t want to see you hurt."She looked up at me, her eyes searching mine. "I’m not used to someone caring so much," she admitted."You’ll have to get used to it," I said, a smile tugging at my lips.Reaching into my pocket, I pulled out a sleek

SHE'S PRIMORDIAL

CHAPTER 22: SHE'S PRIMORDIAL EVERLY:I put on the Lavender dress I bought from the market and moved closer to the mirror. I stood and admired myself as the dress hugged my curves. Given the way I was raised, living a life of luxury was something I didn't know I could indulge in. Now , I felt so feminine and elegant and ultimately… beautiful. Someone knocked at the door and snapped me out of my thoughts. Before I could answer, Kaelan walked in. His commanding presence filled the room, and his sharp gaze immediately landed on me.“You’re rying on your new clothes?” he asked, smiling as his eyes roamed over me.I felt my cheeks flush. “I, uh… yes. Just wanted to see if they fit.”“That dress fit perfectly,” he said, with a low and husky voice. He walked over to where I was and wrapped his arms around my waist, pulling me into his chest. The warmth of his touch sent a shiver down my spine.“I hope you enjoyed your day, my future Luna?” he asked. His thumb caressed my cheek, and his gol

THE AWAKENING RITUAL

CHAPTER 23: THE AWAKENING RITUAL EVERLY:The priestess directed me to the altar. “Kneel. The awakening ritual will reveal the extent of your power.”I was reluctant and my heart beat kept increasing. Kaelan’s voice was soft beside me. “I’m here, Everly. You don’t have to be afraid.”I summoned courage, moved forward and knelt down. I wasn't afraid anymore but I knew my life will never remain the same.I found it hard to look into the shimmering eyes of the priestess. It was like molten ice and somehow unnatural. She pointed to the stone altar at the center of the room and told me to go there.“Lie down, child,” she said. “The awakening ritual requires your full submission to the moon’s power.”I felt reluctant and looked back at Kaelan, hoping he could reassure me. He stood tall, his golden eyes locked on meHe was silent but I knew he was solidly behind me.“I'm here with you,” he murmured, not taking his eyes off me . “I’m not going anywhere.”Swallowing hard, I nodded and sprawle

POISONED WITH THE WOLFSBANE

CHAPTER 24: POISONED WITH THE WOLFSBANE EVERLY:The words of the priestess made me anxious. “What do you mean?”“You will know when the time comes,” she said cryptically. “Trust your instincts, child. They will guide you.”Kaelan placed a protective arm around me as we left the temple. I looked up at him as we made our way home. “I don't know, Kaelan, but I think I believe everything she said.”“Me too. And I believe in you.” he said as he kissed my forehead.As we stepped into the threshold of the castle, Seraphina stepped forward boldly and gave Kaelan a hug.I was very exhausted and even feared I might collapse any moment. The ritual had drained every strength in me and I couldn't wait to enjoy the comfort of my bed. But as we approached the grand doors of the castle, I heard a woman’s voice.“Alpha!”Then Seraphina just appeared from no where and threw her arms around him.I froze, the sight rooting me in place.“Seraphina,” Kaelan said in a casual way. He didn’t return her embr

I BELIEVE YOU

CHAPTER 25: I BELIEVE YOU EVERLY:His jaw tightened, and for a moment, I thought he might explode. Instead, he took a deep breath, visibly calming himself.“Seraphina was pleading with me to release her mother,” he said evenly. “That’s all.”I scoffed. “She was practically glued to your body.”“I didn’t encourage it,” he countered. “And I didn’t touch her. I would never touch her, Everly.”I wanted to believe him, but the knot in my chest wouldn’t loosen. “It didn’t look that way.”He took my hand and led me to my bedroom. Placing his hands gently on my shoulders, he said with a soft voice, “Look at me, you know me better than this. You think I’d betray you? After what we've just been through?”The knot in my chest loosened a bit. “Seraphina is beautiful, Kaelan. Probably too beautiful for you to resist.” I turned away from him. “I think you like her. Maybe not as much as she desires but you certainly feel something for….”His eyes darkened, and before I could finish, he pulled me in

KILL HER!

CHAPTER 26: KILL HER!EVERLY:Minutes later, the kitchen staff was rounded up and brought to the main hall. Ava, the cook, stood trembling, while Maria, my maid, twisted her fingers nervously.Kaelan’s voice was like a whip as he addressed them. "Who prepared Everly's lunch today?""I… I did, my king," Ava stammered."And who served it?"Maria stepped forward hesitantly. "It was me, Your Majesty. But I only brought the tray from the kitchen. I didn’t touch the food."Kaelan’s piercing gaze swept over them both. "If either of you is lying, I will find out. Do not test me.""I swear, I'm innocent," Maria cried, tears streaming down her face.I stepped forward, placing a hand on Kaelan’s arm. "Kaelan, I’ve known these.two for months. Let’s dig deeper before convicting them."He tightened his jaw but nodded. "Fine. But we can't let them go yet. They have to be kept in a cell until the investigation is over. if they’re innocent, someone else is guilty.”Kaelan ordered the guards to sweep t

WE WON'T FAIL YOU AGAIN

CHAPTER 27: WE WON'T FAIL YOU AGAIN EVERLY:I forgot to adjust the window curtains before I went to bed last night. So the sun was able to penetrate the window, and shine directly on my face. I crawled out of the duvet and sat up on the bed. I glanced at the wall clock and noticed that it was already 10:30 in the morning. Did I actually sleep for twelve hours straight? The events of yesterday must have really taken its toll on me.I felt a bit hungry and wanted to mind link Maria for my breakfast but I remembered the incident of yesterday that almost cost me my life. How was I to ever feel safe again eating from that kitchen?I couldn’t ignore the betrayal I felt from Miriam’s attempt to poison me. Still, I needed food. I mind linked Maria and told her to come to my room with Ava. They deserved a chance to clear their names, and I needed to ensure this never happened again.I sat at the small round table in my room and noticed the napkin which I had used to wrap the roasted chick

DEFEATING THE ROGUES

CHAPTER 28: DEFEATING THE ROGUES EVERLY:I tried to reach Kaelan through the mind link but I couldn't connect with him. He must be out of the pack. I needed to eat so badly but I didn't want Maria and Ava handling my food right now.The next option I had was to buy take out food. I knew a canteen close to the bar where I once worked and their food was good. So I decided to go get some food before the sun gets hotter.It took me thirty minutes to get there and luckily, the canteen wasn't so busy, as most people already had their breakfast. I paid for my food and headed home immediately. I clutched the brown paper bag of food as if it was some kind of treasure. The scent of freshly made pancakes wafted up, and I couldn’t help but inhale deeply. It was a simple meal, but it felt like a lifeline after being without food for almost 24 hours.I humed a song and enjoyed the cool air as I walked along the path that led back to Crescent Moon. Suddenly, a familiar but pungent scent hit my nos

WAY AHEAD OF ME

CHAPTER 29: WAY AHEAD OF MEEVERLY:--- We got back home in no time and Kaelan put his hand in mine and led me to his room.. "I’ve made a decision," he said, staring into my eyes. "About what?" I asked curiously.. He pulled me closer and rested his hands on my shoulders. "We’re crowning you Luna tomorrow night." My eyes widened. "Tomorrow? But it:s so soon." "It’s the full moon," he said, his voice gentle but firm. "It’s the perfect time. Don't forget what the priestess said about the danger of delaying this.You’re ready, Everly. You’ve proven that over and over." "But what if…”" "No argument" he interrupted, and slid his hands down to clasp mine. "No more doubting yourself. Besides, I'm tired of having you here as just my mate. I want to see my mark sitting pretty on your neck.The pack and the entire Crescent Moon territory needs to see that." I was happy but at the same time, afraid. There are a lot of people who don't want to see me crowned as Luna. “What if someo

THE PREPARATION

CHAPTER 30: THE PREPARATION KAELAN:When I woke up the following day, Duncan’s voice came through the mind link. “Alpha, please come downstairs. We need you to see how we want to go about decorating the hall.”I had informed him of my intention to crown Everly today during the full moon. And I want to host a little party.I turned to Everly who lay by my side, “Come with me, we have work to do.” I helped her up on her feet and put her hand in mine. I surveyed the preparations for the party tonight when we arrived at the hall. The grand hall was already buzzing with activity, and the air was thick with anticipation. I leaned against the doorway, and watched as wolves scurried around, arranging tables, hanging banners in silver and deep blue, and stringing lanterns that would glow like stars."Alpha,” I heard Duncan call out to me. “Is there something I need to know? Why the sudden decision?”“I have many enemies, Duncan. If I fix a date, they'd have time to plot.”. Duncan nodded i
