Leila sighed and then dropped the silks back to the bed. “It’s my job, don’t you frustrate me and tell me what to do. I will choose what I want for the Luna and you choose what color you want.” She said and then scoffed. “Too soft? I bet you don’t want her to look good tomorrow.” She added, her voice low and firm, sounding like she looked stressed.

Evelyn smirked and then raised her two hands up a little bit. “Easy, just trying to tell you my opinion.”

“I didn’t ask for your opinion. If I wanted your opinion I would have asked but I didn’t.” Leila shot back at her in anger, her voice low but sharp.

“Well, I don’t want red. I would love a creamy color dress,” Evelyn said, brushing her fingers over the fabric samples spread out on the bed.

Leila stopped what she was doing.

The iron in her stare cut sharper than any words ever could. She didn’t speak. Just looked—calm, deadly calm.

“Relax,” Evelyn added with a shrug, like she hadn’t just trampled over three weeks of planning.

    SELENEThe knock on the door was soft but persistent. Zarek was already awake before me.“Luna Selene, it’s time,” Brielle’s voice came through the door, low but firm.I groaned under the heavy duvet, my eyes still closed but I heard the knock again. “Selene. Breakfast is ready..”I groaned and then I raised my two hands up.The door opened before I could answer. And it was Leila I saw, Brielle had left because Leila told her to.Leila stood there, she wore a long black dress. “Come on, time to eat,” she said, her voice low but not soft. “I know you had a very passionate night.” I let her walk me to the bathroom. She grabbed a brush, running it through my hair slowly.“Look at me,” she said slowly. I lifted my gaze. “Open your eyes wide and see me.” I swallowed hard.Leila was relentless, but in a way that felt like a lifeline. She pulled out a sleek dress, a deep navy that made my green eyes pop.“Try this on” she said, holding it up.I changed quickly, the cold air biting at my

    SELENE“Are you going to keep playing with my body, or we are going to finish what we started?” I said my voice low, I wanted to speak up again, but I went silent as he leaned down, his lips moving around my neck.“I’ll stop doing that when you beg.”I nearly moaned but I kept my voice down.He gently laid me down, crawling over me like a shadow moving through the woods. My fingers grabbed the bed sheet very tight, overwhelmed by the heat of his body above mine. I could feel my heartbeat in my ears, my breath became fast.“Zarek…”He stopped, and then he looked me in the eye, he smiled firmly.“I don’t want to mess this whole thing up because I know how much you want me,” I whispered. “I mean… I don’t know how to do it like this. The bond, it’s been long.”Zarek’s expression softened. He reached down, putting my hand to his chest.“Our wolves will do most of the work. We just have to let them do it okay.”“But what if I don’t shift?” I whispered. “What if I freeze? What if I—”He kiss

    SELENEWe were just about to step into the hallway leading to our rooms when Luca appeared, dressed in all black as usual, like the shadows obeyed him.“You two aren’t heading to your rooms yet?” Luca asked, his voice was calm.I turned my gaze to him, Leila who was beside me also looked at him. Luca looked like he had been waiting for us to finish our conversation with Orion.Leila blinked at him,expecting him to move aside.“We were just about to—”“He’s waiting for you,” Luca cut in, his eyes shifting to me now.The energy in us changed instantly.“Zarek?” I asked, though I didn’t need confirmation.Luca gave a slight nod. “You can go ahead. Leila, your room’s the third on the right.”There wasn’t a question in his voice. Just facts laid out like stepping stones.Leila looked at me, then back at him. “I can walk her—”“She knows the way, and if she doesn’t, a maid will guard her you don’t have to.”He turned his gaze to me again. “Alpha Zarek’s been waiting for you.”The way he sai

    SELENELeila rushed to him immediately like he was an Alpha celebrity.“Hey.” Leila said, her voice low and soft, this was the first time I have ever heard her speak like that.“Leila?” I called out to her, my hands on her shoulder but she just pulled my hand back and signaled to me.“Alpha Orion, it’s so rare to see you at a party like this, how are you doing?” Leila said, as she moved closer to him.Orion swallowed hard. “I haven’t seen her before.” He said, pointing his finger at me.Leila chuckled. “Yeah, you probably haven’t seen her before. She is Selene.” “Selene?” Orion repeated.Leila nodded.He gestured his hand forward for a handshake. “I am Orion, the alpha of Storm Weil pack.” He said, his voice deep and husky.Leila interrupted. “Orion.” She said, her voice sweet and soft.Was she in love with him? Haven’t heard her speak like this, she looks like she wants to seduce him.But the alpha didn’t even look at Leila, his eyes were on me.“I think you’re a little intimidating

    SELENE“Take her back to the car, I will be there in a few minutes.” Zarek said and then walked away not meeting my gaze.“Where are you heading to?” Luca who was following him side by side said.“To tell the lycan king that I am going home.” Zarek said.Luca smirked. “You don’t have to go home angrily, the Luna can just change in the car, don’t ruin the mood tonight, the Lycan king expects you to pass the night here.” Zarek paused. “He expects me to pass the night here and you didn’t even tell me? I didn’t even plan on sleeping here” “It’s not my fault Alpha, I was just informed on time.” Luca said firmly.***“Leila, I think I’ve had enough for one night, my dress is wet already and I can't continue like this.”I said as we stepped down the marble stairs toward the private cars lined up outside to the palace gates. The music inside was still playing. Laughter, glass sounding like nothing just happened to me. Leila looked over at me. “You sure you wanna go home right now? You wan

    SELENE“I… I haven’t been moving well lately,” he said slowly, the weight of his voice cutting through the silence. “My healers thought I might need a walking stick soon.”He looked up.“And yet you brought me one. Without me asking. How intelligent of you, Luna. And I am so grateful for this.”More murmurs erupted in the room. Some approving. While some were surprised.I smiled politely and then I stepped back.From the side of the altar, Evelyn stood still, her mouth closed, her arms crossed to her back. She rolled her eyes, but it wasn’t obvious but I saw her expression. She looked really mad that the attention she was getting faded and shifted back to me.The King didn’t notice her anymore, he was so happy because of the gift I gave to him.He raised the rod a little and smiled. Genuinely. “This is a special and a wonderful gift.”And then… the words that cracked the air like lightning.“I will be expecting my grandchild very soon.”Everywhere became silent.Like someone turned th

    SELENEZarek bowed his head, one hand on my back. “I am sorry, Your Majesty.”The Lycan king smiled and then gestured his hands for Zarek to raise his head up. “Accepted, but you don’t have to apologize, my son. We only begin when the special person arrives.” He said, stepping forward, his gaze flicking briefly to me. “And this is the Luna everyone’s talking about?”I smiled and nodded smoothly. “It’s a great honor, Your Majesty.”The King’s smiled. “Oh, I believe the honor is mine.”The party started again. Conversations resumed. The tension didn't vanish. The five of us were guided to our reserved table near the front, just below where the King’s inner circle sat.As we took our seats, Evelyn lingered, pulling her chair out with sharp movements. She sat without saying a word.Zarek reached across my lap to pour me wine. “Are you good?” he murmured, his voice firm.“I am okay, and you?” I said. “But Mira keeps staring at me.”Zarek smiled faintly, his fingers brushing my wrist. “I am

    SELENEAfter a few minutes, I was dressed. I walked slowly, careful not to fall, because my heels were way too high.“Are you done?” Leila asked, as she walked towards me.I nodded. “All set.” She smirked and then I continued walking.“Oh geez, if you fall in those heels,” Leila muttered behind her, “I’m gonna pretend I don’t know you.”I smirked but I didn’t look back. “You’re not helping right now.”“I’m always helpful. I just can’t carry you on my back today, you have to learn and try to walk on those heels.”I took a deep breath and stepped down the first stair. Slowly. Every step echoed. Every click of my heel felt like it held weight. The grand staircase opened into the foyer below, where the air buzzed with quiet conversation and the scent of cologne, clothes, perfumes.Zarek stood near the door, dressed in sleek black. He wore a fitted suit that looked like aura and power sewn together. His hands were behind his back, he looked like he had been waiting for me to step down, b

    SELENE“It’s fine.” I said with a wide smile. “I have been through worse. So this is nothing compared to what Mira had shown me.” Zarek sighed and then dipped his hands in his pocket. “You will see them tomorrow.” He said.I froze, acted like I didn’t hear what he said. “What did you say? I am sorry I didn’t hear what you said” I said, my voice barely above a whisper, my eyes locked on him.“Goodnight.” He said and then walked away.I jumped up in excitement. “He said I would see them tomorrow? Finally I would get to see my ex and his mistress.” I said and then giggled. “What’s with the excitement?” I heard a voice break out and then I paused.It was Leila.I jumped towards her and then grabbed her hands. “Zarek said I would finally get to see Lucien and Mira tomorrow.” She scoffed and then poured herself a glass of wine. “So why are you excited?” I froze and then gestured my hand. “You know I have been dying to take revenge on both of them.” She choked. “Revenge?”I nodded.“If
