Second Chance for the Barren Luna CHAPTER EIGHTY EIGHT
Jason’s POVNolan thought he was clever. He thought he could slip poison into a goblet of Rosefall in full view of the room, and no one would notice. But I noticed. I watched the faint tilt of his wrist, and the liquid vanishing into the crimson wine. He carried it toward the Alpha King with that calm arrogance he always wore, as though he already owned the room.Poison. In public. He had to be insane. Did he think the Alphas would rally to him after such a stunt?They would tear him apart before the Alpha King even raised a hand. And Nolan was not useful to me. That was why I acted.My elbow “slipped” just as the goblet neared the Alpha King’s lips, shattering Nolan’s plan along with the glass. A few murmurs of surprise rose around us, but no one dared to challenge me openly. To them, I was just drunk, perhaps a little overeager in my attempts to flatter the King.If Nolan wanted chaos, I would give him disappointment. And if he decided to go further, provoking the Alpha King openly,

Nolan’s POVThe sound of shattering glass echoed through the banquet hall. All conversation ended as everyone focused on me and the Alpha King. Because of Jason’s clumsy elbow, my plan was ruined.Marco’s voice flooded my mind through our link. “Alpha, please, just leave it alone. We can try another time.”There would not be another time. This must happen now. I would drag the truth out into the open one way or another.I sneered at the Alpha King and said, “You’re growing old and feeble, old wolf.”Gasps spread through the room. The Alpha King’s eyes widened at my accusation. Jason immediately moved away from us.He gave a nervous laugh and said, “I think you had too much to drink, Alpha Nolan.”I ignored him and continued, “Tell me, is it guilt that makes you tremble? Or do you remember the blood you spilled?”Solon slammed his hand on the table as he stood. He snarled, “Nolan! How dare you insult the Alpha King! If you can’t handle your liquor, return to your room but do not cause

Nolan’s POVVoices rising and falling, laughter and clinking glasses were grating on my nerves. I forced myself to remain calm even though I clenched my jaw any tighter, I may pop out of my tooth. Every Alpha was gathered here in Silverfang. It was the perfect opportunity to show who the Alpha King truly was.I noticed Talia slip away earlier. I hated to admit that I felt relieved. If the Alpha King lost control, she would be in danger. And if he was the wolf who I believed he was, he would die by my hands tonight. At least in this way she would be spared seeing her father bleed out in front of her.I leaned closer to Marco, keeping my voice low, and asked, “Is it ready?”“It is stable,” he confirmed, “but Alpha… are you sure this is wise?”“You question me?” I asked. Ever since Marco had found his mate, he continued to question me about my plan. He was slowly becoming a liability.“I question the risk,” Marco replied. His gaze flickered toward Della, who was laughing with Solon acros

Talia’s POVThe banquet hall pulsed with music and voices. Warm light shone across stone walls and silver platters. Wolves from every territory were in their finest suits and ball gowns, while servants wove between them with trays of food and wine.At the head stood my father, the Alpha King. Even on such a relaxed night, people turned toward him, waiting for him to speak. When he raised his glass, the room went still.“Tonight, we celebrate strength, but also unity,” he said. “The Rite reminds us we are bound not just by rivalry, but by the Moon Goddess and by one another through alliances and friendship.”Applause followed. Others believed while some had practiced smiles. Yes, the Rite was about deepening friendships, but this was also an opportunity for others to gain the advantage on other packs.I stood with Solon and Della near the center of the hall. Solon’s posture was rigid as if he was overthinking an issue. He leaned toward me and said, “Talia, you should withdraw from the

Jason’s POVHow dare she mock me!I stormed away from the training grounds, boots crunching against the dirt. The memory of Talia’s expression replayed again and again. She looked at me with disdain as if she, an omega, was better than me. Losing face in front of her was humiliating. I would get even. I’d make her regret not accepting me back.Henry was near the racks of Hunting Rite equipment, reviewing the list of equipment. He straightened the moment he saw me, but I could see him tense as he saw my expression.“What happened now?” Henry asked.“Check everything again,” I snapped, my voice carrying farther than I intended. “The bows, the blades, the spears. Every strap, every shaft, every notch. Nothing can be out of place.”Henry’s brow furrowed, but he gave a crisp nod. “I checked them yesterday and I just finished checking them,” he said as he motioned to the document in his hand.“Then check them again,” I barked. “If I lose so much as a single point because of a cracked string

Talia’s POVThe morning sun beat down on the training grounds, warm but not yet oppressive. Della stood beside me with a bow in hand.“Focus, Talia,” she said, her tone smug as the string creaked. She released, and the arrow thudded just outside the painted ring. “Damn it.”I chuckled and pulled my own arrow from the quiver. “You’re supposed to be teaching me, not missing on purpose.”“Shut up. That was wind,” Della argued.I laughed under my breath. I lifted my bow and tried to copy her stance. My fingers ached from yesterday’s training, but I wanted to keep pushing. I drew back, aimed for the target’s center, and released. The arrow hit outside of the painted ring as well.“See? You’re no better,” Della teased.Before I could retort, a voice interrupted us. “At this rate, you’ll never hit prey.”Della stiffened instantly. We turned, and my stomach clenched when I saw Jason and Nolan approaching us.Della’s glare could have burned holes in the dirt. “You’re not welcome here.”Jason r
