Kayla' s POV

The 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    Ultimatum

    Ivonne's POV After my declaration, I folded my arms and leaned back against the long table in the library, staring straight at Elara as she shook her head at me like I’d just said the most ridiculous thing in the world.“I love what you said but I have to tell you thT You’re dreaming, Ivonne,” she said with a short laugh. “It’s a fantasy to think we can change traditions that have survived for centuries. You can’t just wake up one day and decide to rewrite the laws of the Lycan world.”I pushed myself upright.“I don’t care how old they are, we have to change to survive,” I said. “Humans only survived because they learned how to adapt. Because they changed with time. That’s how we became stronger.”Elara scoffed. “We’re not humans.”“And from the book I just read,” I shot back, “the first Lycan was human once. So don’t tell me we can’t learn from them.”She stared at me like I was about to start a war.“You know what you’re really asking for, right?” she said quietly. “You won’t just

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Lycan history

    Ivonne's povI stared at the portrait again.The man in it looked powerful. Not cruel. Not dark. Just… a little too serious. Like someone who carried the weight of the world on his shoulders.Still, something about the way Elara looked at him made my chest feel tight.“Was he a bad man?” I asked quietly.Elara turned to me, surprised by the question. “No,” she said almost immediately. “He wasn’t.”I frowned. “Then why does your face look like that when you look at him?”Elara sighed.Not the dramatic kind. The tired, deep kind — the kind people sigh when they’re about to open a door they’ve kept locked for their personal reasons.She walked over to the tall shelf near the window and ran her fingers along the spines of dusty books before pulling one out.“I guess,” she said, turning back to me, “we’ll have to start from the basics.”She handed me the book.The cover was old, the edges worn. Gold lettering barely visible.I looked down.History of the First Lycan.“You want me to read t

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Learning more about the people

    Authors note: Hey everyone, apologies for the late update, I had to take a break to rest.Ivonne's POV Elara didn’t answer my question right away.We stood in the corridor outside a building I assumed was the library, with the gemstones still flickering softly against the stone walls, and for one terrifying second, I thought I had pushed too far.“Elara…?” I asked again, my voice quieter now.She still didn’t move.My chest tightened. “I’m sorry If I brought the topic up too soon. If that question is too hard to answer right now then you don't need to —”She finally turned around.Her eyes were glossy, but not with tears. With what appeared to be memories as she began speaking.“I loved my cousin Chelsea so so much,” she said slowly. “More than anyone outside my mother.”I stayed silent, giving her space.“She was half Lycan,” Elara continued. “Which on this wretched realm meant that after her noble mother died, she was practically forced to live in the northern continent so that she

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    The Lycan rules

    Ivonne's POV I stared at Athena as my mind tried to process everything she’d just said about the realm being vulnerable and Hector having to protect it.Since I couldn't let him face this alone, I decided to take initiative. “So…” I finally said, breaking the silence. “What can we do as women to help protect the realm?” Athena’s lips pressed together before she answered. “We can only pray to the goddess to help the men And we can emotionally support our partners if the attacks ever happen.” I blinked. “That’s it? Pray and talk to our partners when our people are probably being killed? I don't understand. I thought Lycans are powerful?""We are, but Lycans in this realm prefer to stick to their predetermined roles and rules." Elara shifted beside me, already looking uncomfortable. I frowned. “Wait. You mean… we’re truly not talking about helping them fight?” There was a strange pause, the kind that made me know my answer before anyone even spoke. Elara cleared her throat. “Ivon

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    The cost of friendship

    Ivonne's POV I sank slowly into the armchair beside a large wide window, I was still a little nervous from the surprise of seeing all these proud Lycan noble women bowing to me. “Okay,” I said with a small smile. “Everyone, please… sit down.” The women hesitated for a second, like they weren’t sure if they were allowed to, which only made me more uncomfortable. Viera leaned on her brothers as she lowered herself into a chair, Elara followed, then Athena, sitting straight and dignified like always. Hector was still standing near the door, arms folded, his expression tight in that way I’d learned meant something was bothering him. “I’ll be right back,” he said suddenly, turning to Sevrin. “Come with me. We need to handle something.” My brows knitted together. “Is there a problem?” He paused, just for a second too long. Then he walked back to me and brushed his thumb over my knuckles. “Don’t worry about it. Just… talk with them. I’ll be back.” That didn’t make me feel be

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    The meeting

    3rd povElder Marcellus moved like a shadow under the pale glow of the moon, his heart hammering in his chest. Every step was calculated, silent, careful not to scrape a stone or knock over a stray object that might give him away. The corridors of the Lycan realm were quiet, save for the occasional distant snore or shuffle from a guard, but he knew better than to trust the night. Hector’s vigilance had tightened after Ivonne’s ordeal; guards patrolled more often, more strategically, and it made even a simple stroll treacherous.Marcellus’s palms were slick with sweat as he pressed himself against the cool stone walls, darting a glance down the hall. A guard’s shadow stretched across the corridor ahead.Damn it.He froze, holding his breath, and timed his movement with the guard’s passing. The sentry’s eyes scanned methodically, but Marcellus let his noble rank shine through—subtle gestures, a tilt of his head, a feigned calm. The guard hesitated, recognition flickering, and then with
