Kayla's pov

I had barely managed to get the words “he’s here?” out before I was already walking down the hallway to where he was waiting in the garden.

The palace gardens were unusually quiet. The wind rustled through the low trees, carrying with it the faint scent of lavender and earth.

My grandfather stood near the fountain, smiling warmly at me.

“There she is,” he said when he saw me. “Come, walk with me.”

I nodded and stepped beside him. We strolled down the cobblestone path, our footsteps light against the gravel.

“I heard you fainted two days ago,” he said after a moment. “I rushed here as soon as I could. I would’ve come sooner, but things at my business…”

“I’m okay,” I replied quickly, too quickly. “It wasn’t anything serious.”

He didn’t seem convinced. “Still, you don’t just pass out for no reason, Kayla.”

I glanced away. “The healers said it could’ve been fatigue.”

“Hmm.” He stopped walking and pulled a small basket from the bench beside the path. “I brought food. From the

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Asking Lady Catherine

    Kayla's POVI and Adrian were currently on our way to Lady Catherine's quarters. “I really don’t think she wants to see me,” I said quietly, arms folded tightly as we stood in the elegant corridor of the Northern Wing. Adrian glanced sideways at me. “She’ll have to. It’s important, plus you are familiar with her so you have nothing to worry about.” I raised a brow at him. “Says the man who has no idea how much his mother terrifies people.” “She’s not that bad,” he muttered, but I caught the way his jaw tensed as he reached to knock. “Its a little funny how much she hates me now when She once said the goddess herself sent me to you,” I said lightly, trying to tease the edge off my nerves. “I almost thought I was her chosen golden womb but now she looks at me like I'm a viper waiting to strike.” Adrian’s lips twitched, but he didn’t smile. “That was before everything got... complicated.” I didn’t reply. What could I say? That I, too, sometimes wished I was still the girl full of

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Lycan land

    Kayla's pov We entered my room and i sat in a chair while Adrian leaned against the wall beside me. “If my father tried to take something that belonged to the Lycan king—whether it was land, or a woman—it would explain a lot.” “And if that woman was Lady Rina,” I said, voice low, “it explains why she vanished around your father’s death. Why she was erased from the palace records. Why no one speaks about her. No one would want to remember such a tragedy." There was a heavy pause. “Then we need to speak to my mother,” Adrian said. “She might be the missing link in all of this.” I nodded slowly. “I agree.” A silence settled between us—comfortable, but tense with everything unsaid.The words Adrian had said about the Lycans offering him their land still echoed in my mind, making it difficult to focus on anything else. I was anxious and exhausted, but that particular thought kept running in circles in my mind.He had said the proud Lycans gave him land, even though he mentioned that

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Lycan king Konstantine

    Kayla POV By the time we got back to the palace, I was exhausted. My head still throbbed faintly from whatever I had taken, but at least the dizziness had faded. Adrian walked beside me in silence, close enough to catch me if I wobbled again, but far enough not to crowd me. I appreciated it—though it didn’t make the lump in my throat any easier to swallow. The moment we passed through the palace doors, Adrian turned to me. “You should move back into our room,” he said gently. “Or at least closer to me.” I froze halfway up the stairs and turned to look at him. “We’re not—Adrian, I’m not moving back into your room. People already have enough to gossip about. I’m not giving them more.” He sighed, his jaw ticking slightly. “You just collapsed in the open, Kayla. Someone poisoned you or drugged you—whatever it was. You really think I care what people say right now?” “First of all, poisoned is an overreaction. The doctor just said something odd was found in my blood,” I said, holdin

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Grandpa's accusation

    Kayla's pov I thought about it and a question entered my head suddenly. "Ingrid, do you think he might be responsible for my mother's death too?"Ingrid gave me a pitiful look and sat beside me. "Oh Luna Kayla, Don't think that way. We don't even know if she's actually dead. There have been no records of her death. We only know that she's missing. We have to hope that she's still out there somewhere, waiting to reunite with you."I let out a sigh and tried to believe her even though it was very hard to do."But do you know anything about how Alpha Dominc... I mean my father died? I need to know how it's connected to the Lycan king."Ingrid shook her head, "I don't know the exact specifics but all I heard was that one day, The Lycan king and Alpha Adrian went out but only the Lycan king returned alive."Well that was a complicated situation."I exhaled slowly. “I need to ask Adrian. If anyone knows the truth, it’s him.” As if on cue, the door opened and Adrian walked back in. His j

  • A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance    Asking Ingrid

    Kayla's pov Ingrid stood frozen in the doorway, holding a tote bag and wearing a look of complete panic. “I—um—Dr. Marcus said you were awake and I—oh, wow, okay—” she stammered, backing up a step. Adrian cleared his throat and leaned back, running a hand through his hair. I tugged the hospital blanket a little higher and avoided both of their eyes. “This is awkward,” Ingrid muttered, looking between us. “Especially since, you know… you two are supposed to be siblings.” I groaned and buried my face in my hands. “Thanks for the reminder, Ingrid.”She gave a nervous little laugh and stepped into the room before awkwardly walking forward and placing the bag down on the chair. “I brought you a change of clothes and some stuff from your room. Also… soup. Because you keep skipping meals.” “Thank you,” I mumbled. She gave me a quick hug and narrowed her eyes at Adrian. “Keep it PG while I’m gone. Or, better yet, don’t.” “No wait, I’m going downstairs to get her prescription,”
