Adrian's pov

I’d never been so nervous sending flowers before.

It had taken me fifteen minutes just to write the damn note. What could I say that didn’t sound desperate, but still showed how much I needed her? In the end, I’d scribbled the note and sent it.

When her reply came back that she agreed — they were just a few words but I had to stop myself from fist-pumping like some adolescent.

The whole day, I kept checking the time. I hadn’t been able to focus on work, hadn’t been able to sit still. But dinner... dinner had been worth every agonizing second of waiting.

She looked stunning, even though she hadn’t tried to dress up. Or maybe it was because she hadn’t tried. She’d smiled at me nervously, and when she agreed to give us another shot, it felt like I could breathe again. And then the sex —goddess, the sex. It was amazing.

I ran a hand through my hair now, staring at her sleeping form. Her hair spilled across my pillow, her cheek nestled against her arm, lips still parted

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Grandfather

    Kayla' s POVThe ride to my grandfather’s residence felt like a blur. I couldn’t focus on the trees speeding by or the warriors riding alongside the vehicle. My fingers twisted in my lap, and I kept glancing at Adrian beside me. He said nothing, but the warmth of his presence made it a little easier to breathe.When we pulled up to the gates, I felt my stomach knot. I wasn’t sure what to expect. Accusations? Denial? Would he lie to my face again?The gates opened slowly and the front doors flew open.“Kayla!” My grandfather’s voice broke through the air as he rushed down the steps. “My darling girl!”He wrapped his arms around me before I could respond. For a moment, I let him hug me, “I'm so glad you came. It's been too long since I saw you,” he whispered with emotion.I pulled away but my heart squeezed painfully. “I almost didn’t come.”His face dropped.“I didn’t come for our usual reunion,” I said, voice shaking. “I came to ask you something important.”I paused when I saw the s

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Gratitude and contemplation

    Kayla POV I never imagined my life would end up like this. Not after everything I’d been through. Not after being betrayed, abused, lied to, hunted, and nearly killed—more than once. And yet… here I was. In Adrian’s arms, tangled beneath the softest sheets in a room that finally felt like home. His heartbeat was steady beneath my cheek, his arms a tight around me. I let out a quiet breath, my fingers lightly tracing his chest. “You okay?” he murmured sleepily, brushing my hair out of my face as he blinked down at me. “Yeah,” I whispered. “I’m just… a little overwhelmed.” Adrian’s arms tightened around me instantly. “You don’t have to be. You’re definitely safe now. I promise.”My wolf practically purred and I nodded but my eyes prickled with emotion. “Adrian… I have a father now. A real father. Eight brothers. A grandfather. You. And a baby on the way.” His lips twitched into a soft smile. “Don’t forget Ingrid, Logan, Hector, and Connor. You always had a family, Kayla. Even w

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Bonding with the Lycan family

    Kayla POVWhy did my grandfather lie? My mouth went dry. I had no words. I couldn’t speak. I just… stared at King Konstantine like I hadn’t heard him right. “My uncle?” I whispered, voice barely carrying. “My… uncle killed my mother?” King Konstantine’s expression was grave as he nodded. “Yes. He hunted her like prey. Even after she fled, he didn’t stop. And now we believe he’s the same man who has been trying to kill you.” I slowly stood up and took a shaky step back. My legs felt like jelly. “But… my grandfather—Mr. Kim—he said she was an only child,” I said, my voice trembling. “He told me that she didn’t have any siblings. That he and grandmother raised her alone.” Adrian stepped forward quickly and steadied me with a hand around my waist. “Kayla, wait. Remember that Connor came to us before the Lycan King arrived. He already showed us that your mother had a twin brother. We just didn’t have time to process it before your father—King Konstantine—showed up.” The King stood

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Kaylas enemy is revealed

    Kaylas Pov “She was telling the truth,” Konstantine confirmed. “Your grandmother—your mother’s mother—was the last pureblood of her kind. When she died, your mother became the sole living carrier of their bloodline. Only women have the potential to become a Valkyrie." “I…” I could hardly breathe. “Why didn’t we find out any of this in our research before?” “Because Rina wanted to protect you. And so did I and Dominic.” He glanced at Adrian. “She was being hunted. The more people knew about her and especially your bloodline, the more danger you were in.” Adrian muttered under his breath. “This just keeps getting bigger…” I turned back to Konstantine. “So… after you caught her?” “She was injured,” he said softly. “I was supposed to lock her up. Interrogate her. But… she fascinated me. She was fierce and clever and terrified all at once. She aimed a blade at my throat even though she knew she was no match for a Lycan prince. She was trembling like a leaf—but she never droppe

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Lady Rina's life

    Author's note. I apologize for taking so long to post everyone. I was very sick but I'm fine now. Please enjoy and kindly comment to let me know you're still with me.Kayla POV It had been hours but I suddenly began struggling to process his earlier words "my daughter" when I realized how still I’d gone. Sitting beside Adrian and King Konstantine—my father— suddenly felt too surreal, like I’d stepped into a different version of my life. One I didn’t recognize, but couldn’t walk away from anymore. Rina was my mother but I barely know a single thing about her except the few things my grandfather said, such as how she was basically a gold digger who ran away from her poor home to have an affair with a Married Alpha Dominic. But that had turned out to be wrong because a single King Konstantine not a married Alpha Dominic was my father. I had to learn everything there was to learn about her. I kept my hands in my lap, fingers tangled tightly. “What was she like?” I asked softly, su

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Huh

    Kayla POV I didn’t know how long I’d sat there beside him — my father. My real father. The man everyone thought was dead, the man my mother, Lady Rina, had apparently spent her last days protecting me from a world that was never meant to keep us safe. Every few minutes, I found myself studying the lines at the corners of his eyes. Trying to memorize him — this gentle way he spoke my name, the cautious way he kept brushing a hand over my hair like he was making sure I was really here. “I used to dream about this,” I murmured, my fingers curling tighter around the tea cup he’d pressed into my hands. “About you.” He smiled at me, and it did something strange to my chest. “I dreamed too, little one. Dreamed of a thousand ways to find you again, to pull you back from the hands that tried to snatch you from the enemies side.” I swallowed the tight knot in my throat. I could feel Adrian’s eyes on my back — hovering at the threshold of the small study. He hadn’t moved closer, hadn’t
