From Rejected Luna to Alpha Queen Chapter 23
Freya The kitchen was quieter after dinner, because most of the settlement had already drifted back toward their cabins or toward the fire pit outside where the last of the evening conversation still lingered in low murmurs. The heavy smell of stew and fresh bread remained thick in the warm air, mixing with wood smoke and herbs drying from the rafters overhead.Mira stood at the long counter scraping the remains of dough from a wooden bowl when I walked in.She glanced up once, and immediately knew I was there for something important.“Are you okay? You’ve been walking all day,” she said casually, rinsing her hands in a basin near the counter. “Either you’re planning a murder or a life change.”Despite myself, I let out the faintest breath of amusement. “Hopefully the second one.”“That’s usually how the first one starts too.” She dried her hands on a cloth before finally turning toward me fully. “What happened?”The humor faded from my face almost immediately and Mira noticed. She

Freya I didn’t tell anyone what was in the letter. Not Mira, not Caden and not even Eliza beyond the pieces she had already felt through the broken remains of the bond.Some things needed silence before they could become decisions and this one was a part of them. I tried and failed to distract myself, and because with each passing second, my mind kept on circling back to the letter, I walked.I spent the entire next day moving through Thornfield like I was learning the shape of it all over again. The paths had become familiar enough now that my feet knew where to go without thought. I went past the outer cabins, along the fence line, and through the narrow trail behind the storage sheds where the ground dipped slightly before rising again toward the western ridge.I even walked the same perimeter Caden had shown me in the dark nights ago. Only this time, I wasn’t memorizing escape routes, I was thinking.The air smelled like thawing earth and wet bark, the cold season slowly loos

Freya The morning Davan arrived, the sky hung low and silver over Thornfield. The air smelled like wet soil and frost beginning to retreat, and the fields beyond the settlement fence had turned soft from thawing ground. I had spent most of the morning helping Petra reinforce one of the smaller garden plots before the next rain came through.Mostly, though, I’d wanted something to do with my hands, because thinking had become dangerous lately.I was standing near the outer fence line brushing dirt from my palms when I saw the rider emerge through the trees.At first glance, he didn’t look remarkable. He was on a dark horse, in a dark cloak, and his posture controlled. But there was something about the way he moved that immediately pulled every instinct in me taut.Eliza lifted her head instantly, not in fear, but recognition. The rider slowed as he approached the gate, and even before I fully saw his face, I knew who it was.Davan.He dismounted smoothly, boots hitting the ground wi

Ragnar The council chamber had become unbearable, but not because of the noise. There was always noise,voices layered over voices, men arguing policy while pretending it wasn’t ambition, chairs scraping against stone floors, and papers shifting from one hand to another like control could be measured in parchment.I had spent years functioning inside that noise without difficulty.Now every conversation sounded dishonest.By the time the final meeting ended that evening, I already knew what I was going to do. I just hated that I had to do it this way.I waited until the corridors outside my study emptied before sending for Davan.When he arrived, he closed the door quietly behind himself and crossed the room without speaking. He took one look at my face and understood immediately that this was not official business.“What happened?” he asked.I stood near the fire with a sealed envelope in my hand, turning it once between my fingers before answering.“I cannot leave the capital.”Da

Freya Osric arrived four days after Ember Night with mud on his boots, exhaustion in his posture, and the kind of face that suggested he had spent most of his life outdoors.Travelers passed through Thornfield often enough, though not many stayed longer than a night. Thornfield sat in an awkward place between territories and roads, useful to people who wanted shelter but inconvenient to people who wanted status.Osric seemed perfectly comfortable with inconvenience and by the time dinner started, Helga had already decided she liked him entirely because he complimented her stew before taking a single bite.“Smart man,” she declared.“I enjoy surviving,” Osric replied gravely, which earned him an approving grunt.He was broad shouldered and weathered in the way men became after years of riding through every kind of season. His cloak still smelled faintly of rain and horse, and his gloves sat drying near the fire while he ate like someone who hadn’t seen a proper meal in days.Travel

Freya I woke slowly, the kind of slow that only happened after real sleep, and for a moment, I didn’t open my eyes. I just lay there beneath the heavy warmth of blankets and listened to the quiet creak of the cabin settling around us. I opened my eyes to see the pale morning light slip through the thin curtains, soft and silver against the wooden walls and surprisingly, Caden was still asleep beside me.One of his arms rested loosely around my waist, heavy and warm over the blanket, like even in sleep he had drifted toward me without thinking about it. His face looked different like this. He looked softer and younger, like the sharp alertness he carried during the day had disappeared completely, leaving behind something unexpectedly peaceful.I stayed still for a while and took inventory of myself. I didn't panic, I didn't feel ashamed, and there was no regret creeping in afterward to poison the memory of it.I waited for it anyway, because I had spent most of my life expecting ha

Mine. Mine. Mine.My wolf screamed over and over, like she had been waiting inside me to scream that word. The Alpha king's grip tightened around my hand. I looked up at him and found that he was already looking at me, his eyes wide. My knees buckled and I quickly caught the bar of the cage with m

Freya's pov Hours, days and weeks passed and Thorne hadn't come to check on me, except for the maids who had brought in food. He locked me in my room, scared that I would leave him.I prayed for a miracle and one day, the miracle came in form of his beta. He took one look at me and hissed. “Luna"

Freya's pov “Don't marry him," Ravenna, my sister, had said when I told her that I was leaving with Thorne. I was so confused that day. Why wasn't she happy for me? “He chose me," I shot back. "He chose me as his mate.” She wouldn't know what it was like to be chosen for once because, even befor

Freya's pov“I'm really sorry. I know you were hoping for a different result but the test shows you are not pregnant," the doctor said softly, like she was scared it would break me. Maybe it did. It wasn't exactly the news I was expecting. I couldn't feel myself for a moment. I just felt numb, w
