Lewana POV

We finish dinner and say goodbyes to Faes. Cordelia continued to be insufferable the rest of the night but, as Azeala was leaving she whispered as we hugged that she approved of Conrad. Florian was still unconvinced but he always takes longer to come around to change.

During a meeting with Arthur a few days ago, I asked him to keep an eye on Brianna. Turns out Mary was right, as usual, and he just wanted to be in my life somehow and support me so we have been working on that. The benefit to this is that everyone has been keeping an eye on me and my movement but no one will suspect the old man of spying.

I’m walking back through the house to bed when Arthur mind-links me.

“Lewana, Brianna snuck out the back of the house. She is running towards the gardens”:

“Thanks. Keep an eye on her at a distance and I will meet you there”.

I race on over and meet him at the entrance of the flower garden. I hadn’t been here since I last saw my mother. When I see Arthur he quickly points

    Lewana POV "Let's start by discussing your crimes. Shall we?". Anthony is arrogant as ever. "You think you have anything on us?". I smile back smugly. "Let's start with the first crime. Rigging the Luna Queen Ceremony in Cordelia's favour". Anthony just smirked back. "I just made suggestions of candidates. Who they entered was entirely up to them". "And the business deals that were made to secure Cordelia's votes from the council". "Councilmen make deals all the time to build relations. That's coincidental, not correlation". I just smile. "Of course it is. Second crime. Conspiracy to cover up several counts of involuntary manslaughter for aiding William in hiding his crimes in the building collapse, which he was responsible for due to violating building regulations. "That can only be charged if I knew before or at the time of the incident. I only knew afterwards and was scared for my and my family's safety. He is a hardened criminal after all". This is going exactly as I tho

    Lewana POV When I woke, the bed wasn't just empty. It was cold. Conrad had been gone for hours. When I found him in the study, he was frantic. I work out fairly soon after we met that Conrad can be quite controlling. I know that for many Alphas, it is a way to wield power. Having full control over someone and bending their will to whatever your command is. For Conrad, it was always fear. Fear that if he lost control, everything would crumble. He is the last in the line of the Moon Goddess; he has always known that. If he fails, he knows our species would fall to. It's a lot for one man to carry, but he needs to start dealing with it. Today is not that day. Today, I have to start my plan to make sure that Cordelia and Anthony never threaten my family again. First step. Shopping. I need to find a dress that pisses Cordelia off. Tight enough to show my bump. Expensive enough so she knows I'm now the Luna Queen. Petty, probably. Worth it. Completely. Michelle and I go shopping, and

    Conrad POVI look around, confused as I'm in the prison. But it's empty. I call out, but no one responds. I take a step back and bump into something hard. It's Blake. He is hanging from the ceiling and being drained like a stuck pig. "You enjoyed killing me. She'll know you're a monster soon enough". Suddenly, his scream fills the air, and I have to cover my ears. I close my eyes and only open them when it stops. I'm now in my office. "You believed I deserved to be hit and terrorised. Will you do the same to her when she deserves it?". I see Cordelia on the office floor with a bruise forming on her face as my hand throbs. I yell back at the scene before me. "I would never hurt Lewana". "You said you would never hurt me either. You lied to me. Will you lie to her?". I spin around and see Mary standing in the kitchen looking down. She has clearly been crying. Liam comes through the door at the back. "You failed us. You threatened us. You couldn't lead us when it mattered. You

    Conrad POVThe celebration from that pack was immense. As soon as Valerie sent word on her networks that the Luna Queen had returned home, the phone calls came flooding in to confirm and celebrate. It was hours before we managed to get away to the medical centre. We kept everyone out but the head medic so we could have a moment. My moonlight basically collapsed on the bed. "You OK. You look exhausted. We could go to ur room or the living room to rest for a while. Or do you need me to get you something to eat? I can also order the pack to back off if needed. I probably ........ ". She raises her finger to my lips. A silent gesture to get me to stop talking. "You don't need to fix everything, Conrad. The pack loving me isn't going to hurt me or the pups. Right now, I just need to hold your hand while I have the ultrasound". I take a deep breath to try to calm myself. I need to do better for her. I need to do better for my pups. The head medic walks in and can see Lewana looks cal

    Lewana POVI sit on Conrad's lap as I explain everything that happened. The entire plan of the enemy. He refused to let me go and just rubbed my tiny bump protectively as he absorbed all the details, while Liam, Aalto, and Eli stared with fury. Donovan was still in the house when they left, so Liam was straight on the phone to Arthur. "The fucking little weasel left already. Guards at the front gate said he left on urgent pack business just after 1 this morning. Arthur will be on the lookout in case he comes back, but he likely heard about our raid". Liam starts pacing but eventually throws his phone against the wall of the plane, shattering it. "FUCK". He slumps down in a chair, just exasperated, and looks up at the ceiling. "That is the most fucked up shit I have ever heard. I can't believe Cordelia bought your pup". I ask the only thing on my mind. "Is she still at the house?". "Sound asleep, apparently. Arthur checked personally. Wonder why they didn't get her out". "Becaus

    Lewana POVFlashback to two months agoI can feel myself starting to wake up. I'm tucked up warm in bed as usual. If Conrad is up before me, he normally tucks me back in to make sure I'm warm before he leaves. I love it when he does that. I roll over and reach out to his side of the bed, and my arm goes off the edge. Did I fully move to his side of the bed? I reach around with my other hand and find the other edge. This isn't my bed. I sit up and start looking around frantically, greeted by thick perspex walls in a lab with technicians doing work. I start growling instantly. A ferocious, loud growl that makes them all freeze. "Your Highness, you're finally awake. Did you have a good rest?". The familiar face brings me no comfort. "Donovan. What have you done?". "I've saved us all my Luna Queen. You are strong, beautiful, and blessed. You have always been destined for greatness, but you have hidden from us in the human form for many years. Your new accommodations are just to ma
