Katrina’s point of view

If someone told me that five months after meeting Lucius, the only thing I would want was his touch every time, I would have called their bluff.

But here I am, being carried into his penthouse downtown. My lips devour his lips as he leads me to his bedroom.

I frantically try to pull off his jacket, his hands around my waist, while the other one buries itself in my hair, and my legs are wrapped around his waist.

Burying my head in his neck, I nibble on his skin. “ You look so beautiful that I want to keep you all to myself” he whispers, kissing me gently like I was a fragile thing that would break if not careful.

I bury my fingers in his hair and let his lips devour me like a fire of desire. He lowers me on the bed and spreads my legs as she climbs on top of me, his kisses trailing from my lips to my jaw and then neck.

He pulls away briefly, staring into my eyes, “Katrina”

“No. Don’t do this, Lucius.” I say, placing a finger on his lips. I am not some vu

    Lucius’s Point of View“Why do you insist on this girl? Lucius, you can do better than a divorced Luna,” my mother remarked while I made breakfast for Katrina.How could she understand that Katrina was the one for me? And now that I know she’s mine, I am never letting her go.“And this marriage that Cassian is organizing for you. It’s good for you to get in his good graces,” she went on.“I don’t want to be in his good graces. For fuck’s sake, can we drop this? Katrina will wake up any minute, and I don’t want her to hear you saying such things,” I said, beating the eggs.“That girl? This marriage, once sealed, could save you from being killed by Cassian. Please, Lucius, think about it.” She pleaded, but she was just wasting her breath because my mind was already setup.“I am with Katrina now. And I'm not getting into an arranged marriage,” I snapped,“I can’t believe you want to settle for that girl!”“Mum, please keep your voice down. As I told you, I am not marrying anyone but my m

    Katrina’s point of view“I love you so much that it hurts when you look at me like that,” he whispered.My body stilled. Letting him hold me.“Lucius”He turns me around so that I am facing him.“I love you so much Katrina and I know right now you don’t to believe me, but I have no problem proving it to you. No matter how long it takes,” he cups my face.My eyes hold his eyes, hoping I could read if his lying to me, but it’s all true. He loves me.He does. My eyes well up, thinking of how desperately I wanted Xavier to love me like this.For him to look at me like this. To know that I am the only woman in his life.“Lucius”“Don’t say anything. Just give me a chance to prove it” he says to me and my heart races shaking my head moving away from him.“No. This is wrong. We would be breaking a lot of rules. You shouldn’t have fallen in love.” I moved away from him.“Fuck the rules. When have I ever given a fuck about them?” he tries to touch me but I back away. This isn’t the man I thoug

    Katrina’s Point of ViewI walked into the meeting room twenty minutes later in my uniform. “You wanted to speak with me?” I asked the man as I entered the room.The man turned to face me, then said sarcastically, “The famous Luna Katrina”“It’s Deputy Commander.” I correct him.His lips turned into a smile, but the smile didn’t reach his eyes. Judging by the ranks on his uniform, he must be a major.“What can I do for you?” I tilt my head, watching him. He was about the same height as Lucius, six-four. Maybe six-five? I thought inwardly. My eyes moved to his eyes, the same colour as Bianca’s, blue with a stubble beard, with such huge hands that I wondered if he spent time in the gym alone.“My sister. Bianca. I hear you are the one who—”“Wait!” I lifted my hand, cutting him short. “I don’t have any business with your sister. She confessed her crimes and luckily for her, she is a Blackfang, so won’t get to pay for what she did,” I say, and he strides towards me.“Confessed? You framed

    Katrina’s point of view“Cassian! What’s wrong?” I rushed to Cassian, placing a hand on his forehead. He grabs my hand and pulls me into a hug before I can even process everything.I freeze, not sure what to do. “What’s wrong with him?” I ask, panicking as I place a hand on his back.It’s something I shouldn’t do, but I can’t help but do it.“Please, just stay like this with me,” he whispers to me, and I stare at Beta Ryan. “Panic attack,” he mouths to me as I swallow hard, gently stroking his back.“It’s okay. I am not going anywhere” I assure him, while stroking his back., he buries his head in my neck.My heart races thinking of Lucius. What would he say if he saw me cuddling his cousin right now?‘Then let go of him.’ Sage echoes, but I can’t leave someone who needs me alone.“Thank you,” he says to me once his calm, trying to get up to his feet. “what’s going on, Cassian? You suddenly have panic attacks” I say, getting up to my feet and he swallows hard looking at me.I don’t kno

  • Luna Duet : May The Best Luna Win   Consequences

    Katrina’s point of view“You can’t! He only came because he thought something happened to me” I say to Cassian, trying to walk towards him and he tilts his head, regarding me.“Then he should use more of his head than his emotions,” he retortsI chuckle, shaking my head, “And me? Considering the consequences of coming into your bedroom, is marriage?” I ask.“Wait. I can’t marry a royal, so what? A concubine? A mistress? Or will I be demoted?” I ask him, and he raises his brow.“That’s different”“It’s not. You know the consequences of calling me into your room, and yet you did.” I countered, and he inhaled sharply, looking at me.“I can change the law for you,” he says, and I scoff, shaking my head. I see why Lucius hates him; the man is a two-faced bastard.“For you, I would bring the war to this doorstep and not give a dime,” he saysMy jaw drops as I tilt my head. He can’t possibly be—‘In love with you? Yes, he is’ Sage remarks.“Let’s go. I will handle the disrespect that Lucius

    Katrina’s point of view“Just so I am clear. Whatever happens in this car stays in this car. I hear a word of it, and I will be the one slitting your throat,” I growl, before turning to Cassian.“Look at me,” I whisper to him, and he shakes his head, sweat streaming down his forehead.“Cassian, look at me. I am here” I whisper to him, and he slowly opens his eyes, tears in his eyes.“Breath with me”The car starts moving, and he nods his head, repeating after me. “Hold my hand if it gets uncomfortable,” I say to him, and he nods his head before we sit back.I can see Joshua and Beck swapping looks and I know I must explain it to them, but there are only so many people I can trust in the capital, and these two are about forty per cent of those people.“Lucius has all the details for the security. You didn’t have to ask him to stay back.” I start turning to look at Cassian.“His next in line to the throne. If he comes and we end up dying, it would be the end of our bloodline. I can’t ri

    Cassian’s point of viewThe wolf lurked behind the little gray wolf. From the scent, I could remember him being Katrina’s friend.If he dies, she will be devastated. I grab a mask, putting it on, making my way out of the car, and jumping at the wolf.If I shift, I will be an easier target. I kill the wolf and throw it to the ground, and the kid lifts his gaze to me.“Watch every back kid,” I growl, kicking the wolf who tries to come after me, and he falls to the ground.I grab the knife and slit his throat. I glanced back at the car, and Katrina was fighting through the crowd.‘I need to go back for her,’ I link to my wolf.I run through the ground, making my way to her, my chest pounding hard, but the man who was watching starts making his way towards her. She can’t see him as she fights the two wolves.The Wolf lunges at her, sending her flying, and she shifts back into her human form as he lands on the ground.“Katrina!” I growl, shifting into my wolf as I grab the man’s neck, brea

    Cassian’s point of viewAs we arrive in the snowpack, memories of this place start flooding my mind. “Halt!” The guard shouts as I wait for Joshua.“I need to see Beta Tyler.”“Name?” the man asks as I roll down the window. “Alpha King Cassian Whitehorn, now get out of the fucking way!” I growl, and the man stills as he checks through the window.“Luna?” his eyes fall on Katrina, and I pull her closer to my chest.“It’s the Luna. Open the gates!” He shouts and I see them rushing to open the gates.,“Eight cars are following us behind. Let them through,” I shout, and he bows his head, his head almost hitting the ground. The streets look deserted, but every hundred meters, there’s a patrol. We drive into the compound, and I can see the beta waiting for us by the staircase.“How bad is it?” he asks as soon as Joshua gets out of the car.“Dark one claws into her ribs,” I explain, and he bows before me, as the rest of them do. “Get the Luna!” He orders and then takes her out of the car bef

    Lucius’s point of viewMorning Dew. Fresh rain filled my nostrils. Katina’s scent.I snapped my head towards the holding cells. Zane stirred in my mind wanting to make a run for the cells.But when I walked into the little waiting area, my eyes were not drawn to Katrina. It was a woman I had never seen before.She had all the scents Katrina had. “mate” the lips left her plumps lips immediately I walked into the room.Blonde shoulder-length hair with hazel green eyes and a sharp nose. “No,” I shook my head.“What?” She raised her thick brows as I stepped back.“You can’t be…” The words left my lips just as Katrina walked in, her eyes on me, then back to the woman.“No. Don’t come closer to me,” I warned, my heart racing so fast. I wanted to run to her and hold her close to me, taking in her scent.“I am your mate, Lucius.” She whispered, coming closer to me.My eyes snapped to Katrina, whose eyes widened like she had just seen a ghost.

    Katrina’s point of viewWhen I arrived at the barracks, I thought of what I would say to her or do, but now that I was here standing by the door watching her how she was sitting on the floor, knees to her chest and arms curled around them. I felt sorry for her.“What do you want, Katrina?” She asked me as I smiled, walking into the room.“You know he was only twenty-three,” I started, walking towards the window as I looked out towards the training ground.“He wanted to have three kids. Live on a farm and grow things.” I say before turning to her, and she just stares blankly at me with no remorse in her eyes.There was silence in the room, and I could hear her heart pounding so loudly, but she was doing a good job of keeping it together. Go on. Act tough all you want. By the time I am done with you, you will regret ever laying your hands on him.“I should kill you,” I start, and she stills. “But I won’t.”She swallows as I walk towards the screen. “Because death is the easiest way out

    Katrina’s point of viewThe priestess went on with the funeral proceedings. Talking about life as a wolf and warrior, Becky gave her speech about how she only knew him for a few months, but felt like they had known each other for the rest of their lives. Then Bray and Taylor also paid their tribute.“You ready?” Lucius whispered as I got up, taking the few cards, I wrote my speech getting up.He walked me to the front as my eyes roamed around white coat warriors, snowpack, and other people I couldn’t recognize, who filled the chairs.My eyes went to the back and noticed Martin was here, and just at the end of the other aisle was Xavier, but looking behind him, I noticed another man standing by the trees with a hoodie. His head lowered.‘He didn’t want to attract a lot of people to him,’ Lucius linked to me.Cassian.He came.“Umm…” I started looking at Bray and Becky before putting the cards aside, then looked at everyone.“Joshua, to me, wasn’t just a warrior. He was my brother. When

    Katrina’s point of view“Do we know if he had any family?” Noah asked Becky, who was having a cup of tea later in the evening by the countertop.“Seriously, Noah? He just died,” she snapped.“It’s the procedure. I have to—” he stuttered,“He didn’t. His parents left him on a training ground when he was two days old. He didn’t have a pack. Stayed in snowpack for a while, ” I say to him, and he turns to look at me.“Give me a minute,” I said to him, walking into my room, then came back with a file. “it’s his papers,” I say to him and Becky glances at me then back at Noah.“Katrina, this is…”Yes. I planned to make him officially part of the Snow pack, just like the rest of them. “Did you...” Becky paused, looking at the documents.“I planned to ask you guys the other night. It’s what Willow had been working on,” I explained. Her lips parted to say something, but she just burst out crying, covering her mouth.“He always wanted to belong, and that bitch took him away. I should kill her.”

    Lucius’s point of view“No. She killed him. She killed Josh. She killed—” She fell to the ground as I held on tight to her, pulling her into an embrace as she whimpered.“He is gone. Josh is gone,” she whimpered, as I cupped her face.“I am sorry, baby. I wish I could take away your pain,” I whimpered, my chest tightening. I wish I could take the pain away from her and let it be all mine.She stares at me, tears rolling down her cheeks, as I pull her into a hug, and she whimpers loudly.I have never seen her so broken. If Thelma’s death broke her, then this one has crushed her soul completely. “Lucius, I lost him. I lost my friend. I failed to protect him,” she whimpered, holding tight to my jacket as I nodded my head.“I know, baby,” I whisper and let her cry her heart out. Boddy shaking and voice getting huskier.‘Noah. Get some people to take the body to the mogul.’ I linked to him.‘Got it,’ he replied.“I cannot protect them. I cannot even…” Her breath comes in rapid bursts. I ho

    Katrina’s point of viewA cry tore from my throat, so unhinged. My heart is pounding against my chest.“You killed him?” I looked up at Katrina, holding Joshua’s warm corpse in my hands, my lips quivering and hands trembling.“You took him away from me. You Bitch!!” The growl left my lips as I put Joshua on the ground.“I warned you, didn’t I? I told you if you ever hurt any of them. I will cut you limb from limb,” I growled, my claws coming out and my canines elongating.‘Katrina, don’t lose your soul,’ Sage echoed, but I was already on my feet, taking steady strides toward her.“Katrina. Please—” Before I could hear the rest, I let that darkness deep inside me take over as I surged at Bianca, but her brother was already in front of her, trying to shift.“Fuck Martin Do not shift!” I heard Lucius shout over his shoulder as he came to stand in front of me.‘Get out of my way, Luc.’ I linked to him, but it came out as a growl to him, and he shook his head.“Calm down, Katrina.

    Katrina’s point of view“Orion Snow? How did you… how…” I stuttered, tears rolling down my cheeks as he came closer to where I was.“Shannon did a bit of digging, plus your friend Juniper gave me the details,” he says, as I bring my hand to my mouth. He was trying to find them as well.“Let’s go.” He places his hand on my small back, leading the way. I make my way out of the room when I see Bray, Joshua, and Becky pacing around.“I take it I don’t have to punch him again?” Joshua asks, and I shake my head, chuckling softly.“Like you would stand a chance,” Lucius mutters under his breath“Well, at least I tried,” He retorts.“That was brave and stupid,” I say to him, and he shrugs.“At least he knows some people are willing to kill for you,” he laughs, wrapping his arm around Bray’s neck. “Isn’t that right, Bryan?” he asked. Bryan tried to get away from him, but he held on tight.“Where are we going?” Becky asks to join us.“I am going to Green Point. You and them are going back home.

He wants to marry me.“Lucius. We can’t”“I will leave everything. My title, my name, my position. Just marry me” He murmurs, and I shake my head. I am not subjecting his family to something like this.“Lucius This Is—”“Say yes and I will walk away from everything for us,” he says, but I don’t think I am ready to make such a decision.“Lucius, I love you, but don’t you think this is just too rushed? You just can’t wake up and leave everything in the middle of the war,” I shake my head.‘Marry him and leave everything. For once, Katrina, put yourself first,’ Sage remarks.‘I’m not that selfish. You know that.’ I snap, staring at the man who is willing to risk everything for me.“No one would marry us. It’s a forbidden union,” I insist.“A couple of packs owe me favors.” He comes closer, wrapping his hand around my wais

    Lucius’s point of view“No, Mother. You can’t issue such an order. I am the fucking commander!” I growled, and she shook her head in disbelief.“I warned you about that girl, didn’t I? She is trouble. Now she sent her men to come and kill you,” she growled as I rolled my eyes. Trust my mother to be dramatic about something like this. How could she think Katrina would hurt me?“Mother, please. It was just a fight. He got angry, plus he was drunk.” I had insisted, but she also insisted and used her power to have Joshua locked up.Now I had to face the fury of one particular blonde, who was covered in black dirt and her hair disheveled. She is mad because she thinks I will lock up her family.“Lucius,” she pulled away from me, the taste of tears and mint lingering on my lips.“Forgive me. I am so sorry for acting like an asshole.” I whispered to her, and she pulled back.“It’s fine. I would have acted like that as well,” she says, sniffling back.“I can’t believe you would lock him up.
