ONCE FORSAKEN, NOW THE LYCAN KING’S LUNA Chapter 23
SOFIA'S POV Laying on the bed with my gaze fixed on the white washed ceiling didn't quite fit me at that moment.I tossed around, my mind filled with various thoughts.I also wanted to know. Who had poisoned me?Some more, I rolled, biting hard at my lower lips. Unable to bear it anymore, I jumped to my feet, moving quickly along the hall.Not quite sure how Dane would take to this, but I was certain I didn't want to remain in bed anymore. “Your grace, you're to remain in bed ma'am.” A guard said to me. His voice, soft yet commanding. I ogled hard at him, anger consuming me.“Who are you to tell me where to be or not? You do want your body feasted on by vultures right?”“I'm sorry, your grace. It's not in my intention to disrespect you. I was only stating the Alphas’s wishes.”“I would deal with the alpha, but if you know what's best for you, you'll get on immediately.”The young scurried off, his balls dangling in between his legs. “Moron.”I charged on, halting only when I was in

DANE'S POV “Another one? Bleeding too?” My eyes widened as I remarked. I was enraged, flabbergasted too. No doubt, someone was out to get us. I stood by the maid, my hands clamped together. They rested on my chest as I gazed on.“Who could be doing this?” Sofia asked. Her eyes— heavy with worry.“I have no idea, but we should find out soon enough.” The girl was taken to the hospital, and the cake, it sat before me the living room.It was certain that the problem was from the cake. The poison was in it. I snorted, my fingers rubbing against each other.“Get the lady to the palace right away - the lady who had baked this cake.”I watched some soldiers race off, their heads held high. That little witch. I was going to kill her if she was behind this.Sofia sat, quiet. She seemed lost in her own thoughts so I made no attempt to disrupt her.“Why would the baker want to kill us?” I thought aloud, frowning. Sofia stared at me, her eyes sullen.“I'm shocked as well. I've thought about it h

SOFIA'S POV Someone had spoken now. Not just any words. Confessed to poisoning the cake.I smiled, but not for long. It faded like tarr the moment I saw who it was. The smile was replaced by a thick surge of anger.It was so thick that it almost choked me. My hands tightened into fists as I ogled at her. Goodness knows I could strangle her if left alone.I had barely spent a week in blood creek, but she had tried killing me thrice. “Why? Why did you poison the cake?” Dane asked, his face hard. I could see how hard it was for him seeing his own mother was behind such treason.If only one could chose their parents, no doubt he would never have chosen that woman.She laughed, roughly pulling out a chair. She sank her ass on it, chewing on goodness knows what.“I asked a question, didn't I?” Dane’s patience was waning— I could see that. It was only a matter of minutes before he strikes her down. “Well, I had cut out some slice for myself because I wanted to eat it. I added some of my d

DANE'S POV I was curious, and so was my wife who laid on my shoulders. My hand scrolled through my phone screen, carefully opening the message. It was from the hospital, but its contents still remained unknown.Finally, the screen came open. “The Allys.. The cake was poisoned with the Allys”“The Allys?” We chorused in unison, dumbstruck, then our eyes met. “Isn't the Allys a plant that grows in Mike's pack?” Sofia asked.I wasn't sure exactly, but she had lived there, and if indeed, the plant grows in Mike's pack, then there was no doubt that Mike was behind the poisoning.That wasn't all the contents of the message. “There more,” Sofia announced, her eyes widening in anger “The poisoning was done to rupture the Luna's womb, but we were able to prevent that. We would love for her to come for check-ups at the hospital for the next one week.”“Damn it!!” I flung my phone onto the bed, totally enraged. Who was the good for nothing who could have done such a thing?Sofia was as shock

DANE'S POV Mike's eyes widened. Shocked? Angry? I couldn't tell, but the look on his face was one that set me on my toes.The audacity he had. I could have landed another blow on his jaws at that moment, but I didn't. Patience — I had to exercise it.“What reason would I have to want to kill the Lycan queen?” I chuckled. His words sounded funny to me even though they weren't. Did he just ask those questions of me?“Mike, should I remind you of how you mistreated this woman while she was with you? Should I remind you of how you showed her nothing but pain and misery? You have the audacity to ask such question.”“So you think I really did try to kill her, right?” His gaze, fixed wholly on me.I nodded, mine fixed on him too. “That's right. You did try to kill her, and that's not all.”I paused, allowing my words sink in. “The aim wasn't just to kill the Lycan king. You wanted to destroy her womb, so she would never bear me a child?”Mike remain silent. This irked me so much, much more

SOFIA'S POV The name rang a bell in my ears. I froze, my eyes flickering incessantly.“Did you just mention Mike or am I hallucinating things?” I had my eyes fixed on Dane as I patiently awaited a response.He turned, his attention fixed on me. “Yes, that's right.”“What.. what is he doing here?” I shuddered, anger rising quickly in me. I swallowed hard, trying to calm myself down.“Who else do you think could have done that? The plants are only grown in his pack again which makes him the principal suspect. I brought him here for questioning.”The words of his— I didn't know if I should be pleased or upset that he didn't inform me.“But why did you inform me that he was here already? I really did want to see him. I want him to know that I am better off without him in my life.”Dane moved closer to me until there was only a few inches separating us. “He was only just brought to you this morning. I am sorry if I didn't inform you beforehand. Would you like to see him now?”I nodded, my

DANE'S POV I jumped my face without wasting a single second. If Dane was ready to confess, then it was certain he had people backing him up.I knew all along that you couldn't have acted all by himself. The Alpha from the north— There was no way I could ever place my trust in them even though they have sworn their allegiance.They were corny, cocky, and deceitful. “Why don't you wait to finish your food? It might get cold before you return.”I nodded, agreeing with Sophia. With every spoon that I took, the anger in me heightened. It couldn't be helped. I was dying to know those what plotted against me in addition to Mike. Heavens knows what I was going to do to them. Maybe the heads on a spike would be enough punishment, or their bodies being dragged by horses along the streets.I remained patience until I had downed every ounce of food before me. Jumping to my feet, I walked off, Sofia following closely behind me.The air was tense, heavy as well. Sofia remained quiet. No doubt, S

SOFIA'S POV I remained sprawled out on the chair in the living room, my gaze fixed on the TV screen that I had turned on. “What could be taking Dane so much time?” I wondered within myself, my brows creasing a bit.I pushed the thought to the back of my mind, going on with the movie that I was watching. It's been ages since I last sat before a television screen to even watch a show. Things were different now, and I had a lot of peace and happiness unlike before. The mere thought of it brought a smile to my face.Next, I heard the sound of Dane’s feet approaching. Finally, he had returned. I had thought he was going to spend the entire day getting the drugs. I raised my head to him, ready to tease him. I halted abruptly as I noticed the countenance on his face. He wore a frown, thick enough to terrify me. “Dane!!” I raised, worried. “What's the problem? Why do you look so upset? Did someone say something again?”I rose, walking quickly towards him. He placed a hand between us sha

SOFIA'S POV I stood, dumbstruck. My eyes flickered non-stop. Nothing made sense — most especially the sight before me.“Nooooo!!” My voice pierced through the sky, loud enough to awake the dead. My heartbeat tripled. I could feel it thumping against my chest.“Someone, please help..” I screeched. I was terrified. No, that was an understatement. The way I felt right then, I had never felt such way my entire life.The door flung open right then. Dane. He stood, his eyes resting on the corpse, then on me. “What happened?” He sounded cold, fierce too.My lips parted, slowly. I tried to speak but couldn't get the words out. My hands shook. My whole body too.“He.. he's dead.”Dane dropped the food he had dropped with him onto the table. “What happened? Please don't tell me..”He stared at me in a way that made my skin tingle. His hand wrapped around my shoulder as he stood next to me. “He.. he killed himself. I don't know why, and neither do I understand his reason for it, but he did it
ONCE FORSAKEN, NOW THE LYCAN KING’S LUNA Chapter 68
SOFIA'S POV I sat still, my eyes darting around. Nothing made sense to me, definitely not the room I was in.My eyes darted around. They bore the confusion in my heart as I remained still. The door flung open abruptly. A nurse strolled in. She was fully covered. Strange. My brows creased as I glared at her for answers.“Finally! You're awake.” She smiled. It was quite contagious, but not to me though. “What's going on? Why am I here?” My displeasure was obvious, not in any way hidden.“You shouldn't be sitting here,” she muttered as I tried sitting upright. A sharp pain hit me hard in the back. I groaned, laying backwards at once.I was puzzled, and this nurse wasn't making things easier. Why wouldn't she answer me? My patience was starting to wane. “Why am I here?” Again, I asked. I snapped. “The doctor will be here soon,” she responded, and that was all. Her lips remained grimly pressed against each other as she did some things in there. I didn't pay attention to it, so there w

SELENE'S POV This is the first time you'd be hearing directly from me. I'm the only one in the right state of mind to do so though.Sofia was unconscious, fighting for her life. Dane was a shadow of him, broken by the causality that had befallen his wife.I sat in a corner, my hands fiddling against each other. The tears grew in my eyes. For the last hour, they had flown freely down my face…No attempt did I make at stopping them. An hour, and Sofia was still in the theatre.“We would have to operate on her,” the doctor had said to Dane and I after Sofia's examination. “She's been poisoned.” His voice had been cold. “A rare kind of Wolfsbane. We would have to operate on the queen.”Dane’s face had grown cold. He was terrified. Who could have done that to his wife? “Please do everything you can to save her.”It felt like an entire day had gone by since then. I was impatient. Seeing Sofia alive and well was all I wanted.“She'll be fine.” My arm wrapped around him. He snorted, his hea

DANE'S POV The name seemed to ring a bell, or maybe I thought it did.“No, I don't.” I smiled as Sofia flung the question in my face. We remained in each other's arms and the long for her intensified. My cock had grown hard, pressing hard through the trousers I wore. No doubt, Sofia could feel it against her thigh.Right then, my belly made a loud rumble. Sofia raised her head to me, laughing. “That was loud, wasn't it?”“You should ignore it.” “You sure? Have you had anything to eat today?” She asked, a worried grimace on her.I shook my head. “I can eat after I have eaten.” I leaned closer, my lips sucking hard at her neck. She giggled, a soft moan trailing from her lips. She pushed forward, her boobs pressing hard against my chest. Her nipples stood taut, pleading to be caressed.I latched at them, fondling with reckless abandon. She giggled, wincing. “Do you know what I'm going to do now?” I whispered gently at her, nibbling at her ears.“Oh I do.” Her eyes rolled. Just the wa

SOFIA'S POV Soon, it was the close of school. I was pleased, and happy too. Quite exhausted and warned nothing but to relax. Selene was done with her class too. She smiled as she approached me, picking her steps one after the other.“So how was your first day at school, generally?” Her hand held mine— warm and tender. I exhaled, my eyes filled with a strange joy.“It was nice. Really really nice. It would be lovely coming here everyday, or what do you think?” Silence. Then a deep sigh. I knew what that sigh meant though.“I can bet you'd soon get tired of coming here. You're only this excited before it's the first time after a long while.”I giggled. She was right, but not entirely. I could never get tired of studying, or even coming here to the school. There was this happened that came with being here.“Maybe. Maybe not. Waiting till that moment to find out would be better…” “I'm a bit hungry. You?” I clutched my stomach, my lips pouted. “Same here.. we can grab some food at a r

DANE'S POV I sat at my office desk, the morning sun shining through the tall windows. The room was quiet, just the soft ticking of the wall clock and the gentle hum of the air.Papers were placed neatly in front of me, my laptop screen was open.But I couldn’t even remember what I was supposed to be working on.I sighed and leaned back in my chair. “Come on, Dane,” I whispered to myself. “Just focus.”But my mind wasn’t listening. All I could think about… was her.Sofia.The way she had smiled at me that morning… so soft and full of hope.The way her hand lingered in mine before she left.The way Selene teased us, and how she had blushed and looked down shyly. She looked like a schoolgirl, yet so strong at the same time.I smiled to myself. My chest felt warm just thinking about her.I took a deep breath and ran a hand over my face.“She’s safe,” I muttered quietly. “She has guards. Selene is with her. There’s no reason to worry.”Still… I did. Not because I didn’t trust the guards
ONCE FORSAKEN, NOW THE LYCAN KING’S LUNA Chapter 63
SOFIA'S POV I really did love it there—the school. The moment I stepped in, I felt it. Peace. Like a quiet song playing in the wind. The air was cool and smelled of fresh leaves and old books. The tall trees stood proud, their long branches dancing gently in the morning breeze. Birds sang somewhere nearby. The gardens were neatly trimmed, and every flower looked like it had bloomed just for that day.It was calm. So calm. And after everything that had happened in the palace—the fear, the shadow in the room, the tension—I needed calm more than anything.Selene walked beside me, her hands behind her back, looking around with her usual sharp eyes.“Nice place,” she said, nodding. “Quiet. Smells like nothing's ever gone wrong here.”“That’s why I like it,” I said, my voice soft. “For once, I want to feel normal.”As we walked past students and teachers, people turned their heads. A few girls stopped talking and just stared. One of them gave a small wave and smiled shyly.“Good mor

DANE'S POV I stood over his bleeding body, the weight of what I had done pressing heavily on me. His blood, dark and thick, pooled around him on the cold stone floor. The iron scent filled the room, and I could feel it in my nostrils, sharp and bitter, like a reminder of the choice I had made.My hands shook slightly, but not from fear—no, not fear. My heart raced with something different. .I had seen him, the Northerner, his eyes wild, his expression twisted with fury as he charged at me. He had wanted my life. He had come for me, just like I had known he would. The knife in my hands had stopped him—just in time. The gash in his belly was enough to slow him, enough to take his strength away.And now here he was, crumpled at my feet.I knew it wouldn’t sit well with the North. This was their man—one of their own. The anger, the rage, it would be loud, I was sure of it. But I didn’t care. Let them say what they would. Let them call it an insult, an act of war, whatever they wanted
ONCE FORSAKEN, NOW THE LYCAN KING’S LUNA Chapter 61
DANE'S POV The next morning, I was walking through the halls when a guard came to me and said, “My Lord, the guest from the North wishes to speak with you. He says it is urgent.”I frowned. It was still early, and I hadn’t expected to see him until much later in the day. I nodded and followed the guard.When I reached the guest chambers, the man from the North stood near the window, already dressed and packed. His clothes were neat, but his face wasn’t calm like before. He looked… unsettled. His hands were tight at his sides, and there was no sign of his usual smirk or boldness.“You wanted to see me?” I asked, stepping into the room.He turned around quickly, almost too quickly. “Yes,” he said. “I must return to the North. Immediately.”I raised an eyebrow. “So soon? You said you’d stay a few more days.”He gave a stiff nod. “Yes. I did. But… something has come up. Very urgent.”I took a step closer, watching him carefully. “Is everything alright?” I asked. “You don’t seem like you
