Layla's POV.

"Speaking carelessly would land you in trouble and not on my watch." Damon warned me.

I could see fear raging in his eyes on my behalf and my perception about him started to change. I was not in love with him, but maybe he wasn't as bad as he had tried to portray to me because he was not even selling the act.

I expected him to start divulging secrets about his cousin but he looked like he couldn't even utter a spiteful word against him without thinking that his head was going to roll on the floor for it.

This even prompted me to go ahead and find a solution before anybody could come up with any.

If everybody was suddenly afraid of one person did it make them more powerful or the fact that we were weaker?

I wasn't going to sit here and consent to oppression because I didn't want to anger someone.

To hell with them if they believed that everyone should walk on eggshells simply because they existed.

    Layla’s POVPassed out?I rushed towards the room, forgetting Cassandra and her drama. I knew something had been wrong with Pearl when I saw her that morning. My guts were hardly wrong. She was slumped in a chair by the window, her head resting on the back rest. Her skin was as pale as moonlight. She forced a smile.‘’My lady,’’ she murmured weakly. ‘’The floor just seemed to spin underneath my feet for a moment. I’m alright now.’’I crossed the room to where she sat. When I was priestess of the pack, I had learnt a bit of healing from Raven. One of the signs she had always looked out for was a burning fever. It was always a sign that something was wrong. I placed my palm on her forehead. It was not hot.‘’It’s just the stress, my lady,’’ she repeated. There was something in her eyes, something that told me it wasn’t just fatigue. She looked like she was in some sort of agony.‘’Don ’t lie to me, Pearl,’’ I said, and sent away the guards. ‘’I knew something was wrong the moment you st

I was troubled by the kiss Asher and I had shared, and my mind was overcome with guilt.Damon didn’t return until it was very late and I pretended to be asleep. I wasn’t brave enough to face his accusing eyes. When I woke up, he was gone. They said he and Lycan Asher had left for the southern border. I had a terrible feeling about it suddenly.Pearl arrived with my breakfast, as well as to prepare me for the day. I had insisted on having my breakfasts alone in the room. I could tolerate Cassandra and Isabella during dinner.‘’Your father wishes to speak with you before he leaves, my lady,’’ she said, setting down the tray.She avoided my eyes but I could tell from her lacklustre voice and the way she carried herse;f that something was wrong.‘’Pearl,’’ I called out. ‘’Is something wrong? You don’t sound like your usual bubbly self.’’

    Asher’s POVLast night had been reckless. I was losing control of myself and it irritated me beyond my imagination. The evening played in my head. I had kissed Luna Melody.I pranced like a hungry wolf in the room. My obsession with Layla had to end or it would eventually ruin me. But then…I was very convinced that I was right last night. When I called her Layla and she looked back, it felt just right. Why was she at the temple alone at night too? Why was she bothered about the death of Layla?The kiss had been short and wild. Just when I thought she had surrendered to me, she pushed me off, her eyes blaring hot with anger. Now, I’d made a fool of myself. And I hated being made a fool of.I sent for Alpha Nathan.He looked at me as though he could see right through me, but I knew he had no idea why he was seated in front of me before the break of dawn. I was troubled. Sleep had evaded me and I needed answers.We spoke of politics first, the concerns about the southern territories and

    Damon’s POVIt took only a few minutes of her absence for me to get restless. I stared at the bed she had been sitting on, anger twisting through my gut.I was angry that she had walked away, putting a distance between us again. It only confirmed the suspicions I had of her. But part of me felt guilt. Guilt that I had pushed too far by constantly insisting she was cheating on me with Alpha Asher.I exhaled roughly and dragged myself to my feet, reaching for my tunic. I would apologize and we would find a way around our unique problem.Everywhere was quiet and still except for the quiet sound of my boot down the corridors. I looked at the garden, hoping she had gone to find solace among flowers as she usually would, but silence greeted my persistent calling of her name.She wasn’t in any of the rooms I checked and the guards hadn’t seen her either. I turned a corner and nearly collided with Hunter. His sharp eyes scanned me with apprehension before settling into their usual calm.‘’Alp

    Asher’s POVThe chamber was filled with fragrances in preparation for the mating night. Roses and candlewax. Isabella sat at the edge of the bed, her gown falling slightly off her shoulders, exposing her tender skin. She looked at me as I walked in, and I knew what was in her mind. She was still upset about how the ceremony had gone.I pulled off my coat and hung it on the stand. Then I emptied the remaining wine in the bottle and finished it in a single gulp.‘’You didn’t mark me.’’ Her voice cut through the fog in my head.I dropped the cup with a loud thud. ‘’Watch your tone with me,’’ I sneered.She continued defiantly. ‘’You humiliated me in front of the pack, Asher. Your wolf did not accept me.’’ She stood up. ‘’Do you think no one noticed?’’I slammed my fist against the wooden table, and in three long strides I was in front of her. I gripped her jaw firmly, enough to stop her mouth from moving. ‘’You still don’t get it, do you?’’ I leaned closer, my eyes narrowing. ‘’I am Alp

    Layla’s POVEverything in Crescent moon pack had changed in a way that reminded me of my nightmare. I could see evidence of Alpha Asher’s stronghold in the place I once called home. Even though my father was still Alpha, he was just a puppet.The main chambers in the castle were occupied by Alpha Asher, while Damon and I took the other. There were also unfamiliar guards that I guessed were from their pack. I felt like I was being watched every moment.Our chamber was however quiet tonight. Damon had dismissed the servants early and candles were burning gently in strategic corners. He looked at me, his gaze pressing on me that it made my heart flutter.‘’You’ve been quiet all evening, my Luna,’’ he said. ‘’Is something troubling you?’’A lot was troubling me. But how could I tell him I was upset that his cousin had taken over my pack and still, my heart would flutter whenever he was close? ‘’I’m just tired,’’ I replied, watching him. ‘’I hate ceremonies.’’His hand reached for mine.
