All Chapters of THE ROGUE LUNA: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Kael’s POVThe moment Diamond entered the throne room, I could feel her tension radiating like a storm ready to break. Her usual air of arrogance seemed to waver, replaced by a subtle unease. I kept my expression calm, masking the chaos that brewed within me.“Luna,” I greeted, my voice steady. “Thank you for coming.”She approached cautiously, her eyes narrowing. “What is it you want, Kael? Why the secrecy?”Before I could answer, the sound of hurried footsteps echoed through the hall, sharp against the silence. My instincts kicked in, and I turned toward the door, every sense heightened.The figure that emerged from the shadows stopped me cold.Darius.His dark eyes locked on me, his presence commanding as always. The man exuded an aura of danger, a rogue leader who thrived in chaos. The very man I’d hoped to keep far from this kingdom.“Darius,” I said, my tone even but edged with suspicion. “What brings you to my throne room in the dead of night?”He stepped forward, his movements

Aria’s POVFor the first time in weeks, the hideout was alive with something other than tension. The victory over Aldric had given us a rare reason to celebrate, and I couldn’t help but feel the shift in energy around me. Even in a world as dangerous as ours, moments like this were worth holding on to.The bonfire crackled in the center of the clearing, throwing flickering light over the faces of my team. Laughter echoed through the night, mixing with the scent of roasted meat and the earthy aroma of the forest. I leaned against a tree at the edge of the gathering, observing the rare sight of my rogues letting their guard down.Darius appeared beside me, his movements quiet but purposeful as always. “You’re not joining them?” he asked, his tone teasing.I shrugged, a small smile tugging at the corners of my lips. “I’m enjoying the peace while it lasts.”He chuckled, his dark eyes glinting in the firelight. “Come on, Aria. You’re the reason we’re celebrating. You deserve to enjoy this

Aria’s PovWe began walking back to the place where I set up camp.“Hey….are you okay?” I held his hands looking for any signs of injuries.He gave a quirky smile, “I’m fine, Kael couldn't do anything but bark.”“But somehow you were the one on your knees.” I rolled my eyes.He shrugged, “He ambushed me…..”“I see….let’s keep moving,” I said and attempted to walk past him but he drew me back and I landed on his hard rock chest.He bent down to my ears, whispering, “Did you miss me?”I blushed, the warm air from his voice made me tingle but I got myself together.I cleared my throat, “No I didn't and we need to get moving before Kael changes his mind and begins to hunt us again.”I began walking as fast as I could, putting distance between the both of us.What just happened? Why did my body tense up when I got close to him?I should distance myself——this is what happened with Kael. I don’t want a repeat of history.We got to the temporary camp, Darius and I had not spoken throughout th

Aria’s povFor the past week, it has been quiet. We have been able to move back to our original pack grounds and for once, somewhere felt like home.Everything between me and Darius seemed to light up, even if I was still trying not to stop myself from falling for him.Truthfully, this has been the happiest I have ever been.Darius and I trained, ate, and played together.I was happy he came into my life.On a hot afternoon, I walked slowly to his office wondering if he would be able to go down to the lake with me.It was hot and I thought we could both use a little swimming.I knocked on his door, then I heard a response to which I pushed the door slightly.Ryker and Darius sat down and it seemed like they were discussing something important.“Sorry, I thought you said come in,” I said, trying to leave.“Yes, yes I did….come in.” Darius stopped me. I felt Ryker's eyes on me and I was not comfortable but I chose to ignore it.I sat down on the couch trying to give them space.“Ryker,

Darius PovIt was the day before I leave for pack forum. Aria has still not told me if she is up for the task or not.I was done with work and I began to walk to her room to get the necessary information from her.I got to the door and placed a light knock on the door.“Come in….” she yelled from inside.I pushed the door and walked in, she was facing the closet staring at her clothes.“Jane, did too get what I asked you to get?”“I don't think so….”She recognize my voice and she quickly turned, “Darius….you scared me. I thought you were Jane.”I smirk, “I noticed….so, what are you doing?”“Hmm…Trying to pack for the trip?” she said, turning back to her closet.“You’ve made up your mind?” I askedShe nodded, “hmm.…I have but I have an idea.” she turned to me with a mischievous smile.“Aria….”“Just listen, Darius.”I folded my arms, “okay, I'm listening.”She exhaled, “I want to go in disguise and as your plus one.”“Hmmm…disguise?”She nods, “I don't want them to know I am the one y
