KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 79 ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV. Before I know it, soon enough, finals week came and we were down to a total of 25 recruits or shall I say, students. From what I heard, only about fifteen of us would pass to successfully become a part of the elite guards while the other ten would be eliminated during the final exams. We were not exactly informed of what our final exams would be, or should I say consist of exactly, but we all knew it was not going to be an easy feat in the slightest. So, everyone prepared brutally for it both physically, and mentally. For sure we knew it would be a test that would test both our physical strength and mental state as well, and when I say physical I mean both human form and wolf form wise, none is excluded. And mentally, some mind games might be played and all just like in the enchanted forest, except we knew this would be more brutal. Speaking of the enchanted forest, luck seems to be on my side, because despite getting attac
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 80.ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV.I have channeled my entire energy towards practice. The final exams is tomorrow, and it is the moment that will change everything for me. At long last, my life long dreams are within my reach, and I am just a day away from either getting it, or losing it entirely. However, I do not consider the second option as an actual option—not in the slightest. Rather, I am more focused on the possibility, the belief and certainty that I would pass. I have no—I cannot have the thoughts of failing stop me from believing I can do it.If I have come this far, and I have, then of course I would be able to make it. I have defied all odds, I have to make it—I just have to, there is no room for any mistakes or the thoughts of failure. Every thing that has happened thus far, every thing I had to go through to reach this point, I would make it count. I have to. I will make every single thing count once I emerge as one of the winners, and once I am dec
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 81. ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV. I have heard of the brutality of the royal pack, especially when captured and imprisoned. Yet, for obvious reasons, I never thought I would find myself in that position. I was never even the rebellious kid. It was a phase I could not afford given I was trying to get on my parent’s good sides and all. So, that teenage phase kids have tend to act out, I had never had it. If any thing, I prided myslef In knowing I have always green a good kid—always. So of course never in my wildest thoughts would I ever imagine hurting someone to the point of being captured and sent to prison, and especially not if that someone is my mate but they do not know that. Instead, all the know or should I say seem to believe by whatever reason and evidence they have, is that I want him dead, and so, we’re determined to make me pay the full price of it—to pay for something I did not do not have a hand in. How can I think of hurting my mate, how can I
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 82. ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV. It was not until the fifth day that someone finally came to see me for questioning, officially. By then, I would like to believe they have put me through any form of torture they can but I know it is just wishful thinking on my part. Perhaps, every single thing I have went through is just small compared to what awaits me, and though I dread what is to come, I will like to think I have resigned to fate and what will come. I do not know what I am waiting for, but I know help has to come some way, and the one hope I have the most right now is that, Kai will wake up and get over this, and then they will know that I did not do it, that I could not have done it. By the time that the person to question me came, I was exhausted and beaten to say the least, figuratively, and literally. I had just endured around round of beating and was feeling nauseating to say the least. I cannot help but wonder how I have managed to still stay awake
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 83. ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV. “Why did you poison the Crown Prince?” He asked once again, repeating the same question that I have heard from him one too many times already since he started this official interrogation, that is, after he had given me the back story of my life which I did not ask for, but was forced to sit through entirely just for whatever sick reason he has in his mind. A heavy breath escaped my lips, and I could still taste the steel like taste of blood from my busted lip, thanks to the beating I had gotten from the guard he invited in just so he would not taint his pretty hands. He decided to get someone to do the dirty job, just so he could force an answer out of me. But, it is not working, not in the slightest. Yes, my body hurts like hell and every piece of my body is aching, but still. I still have refused to spare him a glance just less, respond. I have plead the fifth and I have earlier realized it is better for me to keep shut.
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 84. ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV. His words, the stirred something in me, a confusion and a bubbling question. My brows drew in, and though I still had not raised my head, my attention has been piqued in a way that he has gotten a hold of my curiosity without knowing it. What is he talking about? What does he mean by I am not just incriminating myself alone and that it is not just me involved in this? Who else is involved? I guess he must have known that he had my attention to a certain extent as well, because from the corner of my eyes, I could see the smug smile that took over his features and it was evident in the humor in his tone as well. “You surely do not think we would believe you are the only one involved in this? Everyone around you of course is a suspect too. Do you not care about them?” He taunted, and something about him and his tone, maybe because I am a living witness if his cruelty tells me he’s is not just spewing empty threats any how, t
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 85. ESMERALDA STONE (RANIA)’S POV. I have resigned to fate. I guess it is the fact that I have not seen or heard any thing from Kai in days, but I had slowly come to accept that he will not come, and that nothing and no one can help me escape this horrendous fate. I do not know what situation he is in and what exactly he is going through, but I have faith in him that he will over come it and not succumb to their plans. What I have given up on in particular though, is that I will live to witness it happen. I do not know what the exact reason is, but they gave me a little bit more meal compared to the usual that day. Normally, I would have been wary of it but I am starving quite a lot, and knowing I would die in just a matter of hours does not quite make me fear the prospect of being poisoned to death. If anything, it is easier compared to dying by hanging so I would choose that really. As such, I sat and devoured the entire food, my appetite bigger than usual and
KING’S LUNA CHAPTER 86.CROWN PRINCE ALEXANDER MALAKAI LUIS’S POV.My whole body hurts, the pain excruciating. I have no idea how long I have been living in this state, but I know it has been a while because I have tethering somewhere in between the line of being conscious and the line of being unconscious. But I could feel it as the time passes by, that I am slowly getting it out of my system. I could feel the black magic in my system, and its dispel.It was like poison running through my veins—slow, scorching, burning, relentless. Black magic isn’t something you fight; it fights you. Especially when it gets into your system, it slowly Wa Tayyu up from the inside. That is how it kills one. And I knew that, I know that it is supposed to kill one, but I know it would not kill me. Rather, my body would fight it. Every muscle in my body, every nerve, felt like it was on fire though. Days had passed—maybe more, I couldn’t keep track, not since I am not exactly in my right track of mind.
