Talia’s POV

It was official the morning of the ceremony and I felt strangely calm.

I sat still while Della adjusted the sleeves of my dress for the third time. Her fingers tugged and smoothed as if she could iron out my nerves along with the fabric. Leslie leaned against the dresser with her arms crossed, watching us.

“If you keep messing with her dress like that, you’re going to rip it,” Leslie warned.

“Then, I will get her a new one. This is an important day for Talia. She has to look perfect,” Della responded.

“I think you’re more nervous than she is,” Leslie said.

“I am anxious. I want to know who she’s going to choose. She hasn’t even told me and I’m her best friend,” Della said and rolled her eyes.

I said nothing as I stared at my reflection. Once again, I looked like a proper Princess thanks to Della’s help. When I returned to Silverfang, I had felt awkward about dressing up like this and now it just felt right.

“Are you even listening?” Della asked, bringing me out of my thoug

  • Second Chance for the Barren Luna   CHAPTER ONE HUNDRED & EIGHTY ONE

    Talia’s POVWe made it to the Shadowclaw border checkpoint right before sunset. A metal gate stretched across the road with two SUVs parked at an angle behind it. This gate was new. Michael had worked fast once he found out Jason had failed again. It didn’t matter what he did. He was going to lose Shadowclaw, and he was going to be banished.As Nolan’s car slowed, two armed guards approached us. I could hear Nolan growling low in his throat. I touched his forearm and said, “Stay calm. We have to play it smart.”“I know,” Nolan responded without looking at me.Behind us, Della and Marco pulled up in their own car. Farther back, the transport vehicle rolled to a stop.“State your purpose,” the first guard said as he walked up to the driver's side window.“We are here under the Alpha King’s authority,” Nolan responded.“We have orders from Elder Michael. No entry into Shadowclaw until further notice. Turn back,” the guard stated.“Do you know who you’re speaking to?” Nolan asked. “I’m Al

    Talia’s POVI was grateful for what Nolan said, but whether he would truly stand with me until I took Shadowclaw still unsettled me.He was my second-chance mate. The bond mattered. Still, I had learned the hard way that a bond did not guarantee loyalty. “Get yourself together,” I told myself.I did not allow myself time to obsess. I needed to keep busy. There were things that needed to be settled before my departure.Leslie and Solon were first.I found them the next day in one of the conference rooms in the infirmary. Solon stood near the window. Leslie paced while twirling a vial in her hand.They both looked at me when I entered.“Took you long enough,” Leslie said flatly. “What was so urgent that we needed to be here this early?”I raised an eyebrow. I had told Leslie why I needed her to come, but she was clearly pretending she did not know that Solon had already agreed to her conditions.“I just wanted to get the situation between you settled before I left,” I explained.“There

    Nolan’s POVColin placed a hand on my shoulder and said, “Congratulations, you two.” True to his word, he did not challenge Talia’s decision and stepped down from the stage.My wolf rose inside me with a satisfied growl. ‘He chose us. Now mark her.’‘Not here, not yet. Be patient,’ I told him. He snarled at my restraint, but he did not push. I wanted to relish this victory, and I wanted to claim Talia in the privacy of my home.The Alpha King lifted his hand, and an attendant approached with a small tray. Two rings rested on a black pillow. The Silverfang’s crest was worked into a simple band of the ring while the other was adorned in diamonds.“These rings represent Silverfang’s recognition of your bond. They will strengthen it and serve as a reminder that from this moment forward, both of you carry obligations that extend beyond yourselves,” the Alpha King explained.Talia stood still at my side. She did not look frightened, but I could feel her nervousness through our bond. I squee

    Talia’s POV“So, tell me, Alpha Nolan,” Jason said, his voice carrying sarcasm clearly through the bars. “Can you really accept that the Bloodmoon pack will never have an heir?”He leaned forward, gripping the iron bars as if he wanted Nolan to see the satisfaction on his face. “Or does that not bother you,” he continued, “knowing your line ends with her?”Jason’s laugh scraped at my nerves. I had truly thought it was Viki that had swayed how he felt about me, but I was wrong. As soon as Jason thought I was barren, he didn’t care about me at all.Nolan did not answer right away which made my stomach twist. Why wasn’t he saying anything? Did he agree with Jason?Noticing my discomfort, Solon gripped my wrist. His touch brought comfort and I began to slow my breathing. Then, it felt like my heart jumped out of my throat when Nolan roared.The echo of it seemed to be even louder. It vibrated through my chest and Jason’s laughter cut off instantly. Nolan’s hand went through the bars and g

    Talia’s POVThe afternoon dragged on. After a few hours, I didn’t want to wait for Solon anymore. I decided to find him to see if I could help him with the important matter. Keeping myself busy felt easier than sitting alone with my thoughts.I went to his office first, expecting to find him reviewing documents like usual, but his office was empty. I checked the courtyard next and then the training grounds. There was no sign of him anywhere.My worry grew. Without my wolf, I was not able to mind link him or anyone else to ask if they had seen him. Solon had said he had something important to handle this morning. It was unlike him not to tell me what was going on.A guard passed by, and I stopped him. “Have you seen Solon?”“Yes, Princess,” the guard answered. “He and Alpha Colin left together not long ago.”I stared at him, unsure if I had heard correctly. “Solon and Colin? Together?”“Yes, Princess.”That made no sense. Solon had told me he had urgent matters to attend to. He did not
