Chapter: CHAPTER 179Elara POVMorning came too quickly.The castle yard still carried traces of the celebration from the night before.A few servants moved about quietly, cleaning the last of the decorations.But the atmosphere was softer now and much more quieter.People were leaving. The guests were returning back to now their packs.And I stood near the entrance steps of the castle, saying goodbye to the people most dear to me in the worldz beside Aldric, of course.The first person walking toward me made my chest tighten instantly.“Anita.”She grinned the moment our eyes met.“There she is,” she said. “Her Highness.”I groaned softly.“Don’t start with me.”“Oh no,” she laughed, crossing her arms. “I’m absolutely starting. You’re a Luna now. That means I get to tease you forever.”I rolled my eyes, but the smile came anyway.“You survived death, war, and my terrible cooking,” she continued. “You earned the title.”“That cooking saved my life once.”“Barely.”We both laughed.Then the laughter faded

Chapter: CHAPTER 178Elara POVThe door shut behind me with a soft click.A soft silence settled in instantly…Finally!The noise from the celebration still echoed faintly through the walls, the laughter and music and now distant cheering… but in here, it was muted.I reached up slowly and pulled the circlet from my head.It felt heavier now.I set it down on the dresser and stared at my reflection.Luna.The word still didn’t sit quietly.I exhaled and reached for the pins in my hair, pulling them out one by one. Strands fell over my shoulders. Then, the dress followed next.The most beautiful dress I had ever worn.I peeled it off carefully, folding it with careI changed into something lighter and simple.Then I crossed the room and let myself fall onto the bed.I laid flat on my back, staring up at the ceiling.The events replayed immediately.The cheers… the kiss… Seraphina.I forgive you.The words had left my mouth before I fully felt them.Did I mean them?Yes.That was the strange part.I did.

Chapter: CHAPTER 177Elara POVThe music started slowly.The sound carried through the yard as the celebration fully began.I was still getting used to the word.Luna.It followed me everywhere tonight.“Luna Elara.”“Congratulations, Luna.”I smiled each time.Some faces were warm and of course somewere forced.But no one challenged it.I was their Luna now and they have to live with it.I slipped away from the main crowd carefully, the dress flowing behind me.I spotted her almost immediately.Anita was already watching me.Of course she was.She raised a goblet the second our eyes met.“Well look at you,” she called out dramatically. “Royalty.”I laughed softly and walked toward her.“You’re drunk already,” I said.She scoffed. “Please. I’ve been waiting for this day longer than you have.”I took the goblet she offered me.We clinked lightly.“To not dying,” she said.I raised a brow.“To not dying,” I echoed.We drank.The warmth of the wjnrspread down my throat and into my chest.For a moment, it wa

Chapter: CHAPTER 176Elara POVThe day had finally come.I stared at my reflection.Luna.The word felt heavy and almost foreign in my tongue. My fingers trembled slightly in my lap as the maids moved around me, brushing powder over my skin, others adjusting my hair and some fastening tiny pins into place.I was going to be Luna.I was going to be mated to Aldric.After everything we've been through.. .Almost burning to death, the war with the vampires, then with the Shadow Crawlers, dying totally and then coming back to life… The nights I thought I had lost him.The nights he thought he had lost me.And now… this.My throat tightened.“Lift your chin,” one of them said softly.I obeyed.I felt the softness of the brush moved along my cheek. I watched myself in the mirror and barely recognized the girl staring back.A few weeks ago, I died! There was no sugarcoating that, I died… And now, I had a whole kingdom outside waiting to crown me.Life was cruel like that, unpredictable.I swallowed hard.Ju

Our borders are secure. Our enemies either kneel… or lie buried beneath the soil they sought to claim
