Second Chance for the Barren Luna CHAPTER FOUR HUNDRED & SIXTY FIVE
Talia’s POVEveryone at the table was watching as I took a bite.No one tried to hide it. Clara stood with her hands folded, the girl next to her froze, and even Della stopped talking, which was always a rarity.I took the spoon from Nolan and then placed it in my mouth. The stew tasted great."Clara, this is amazing," I said, and everyone visibly relaxed.Clara sighed in relief. “Thank the Goddess your taste buds aren’t ruined.” She then hurried back to the kitchen, with the girl following. They returned with drinks for everyone and a plate of sweets. After that, they kept refilling drinks any time my cup was half empty.The room became noisy again as everyone talked to each other instead of just focusing on me. I finally felt like I could eat in peace even though I still noticed a few people staring at me. All I had to do was keep it together until I could get to my room."Henry’s not here tonight. He left with Arya earlier,” Nolan said as he started up a conversation."Henry? Alpha

Talia’s POV“Yeah, I’m hungry,” I said, and the kids cheered.Nolan smiled and walked me to the dining room. “Clara went all out. She made your favorite foods as soon as she heard you were up.”Clara. The name caught me off guard. For a second, I remembered a girl from my past. My maid in Shadowclaw was also named Clara. It was probably just a coincidence. Clara was a common name, but it still made me uneasy. The Clara I knew had betrayed me, so it couldn’t be her.I watched kids run around as more guests arrived in small groups. Some walked in and looked right at me. They already knew. Others didn’t, and I saw it happen: someone whispered in their ear, and then they’d turn to stare at me.People kept whispering and glancing at me, but when I looked back, they’d quickly look away. I couldn’t shake the feeling that everyone knew something about me that I didn’t. It wasn’t lying. It was just something everyone else knew except me.I tried to remember. It was like poking a bruise to see

Talia’s POVThe nurse’s hands shook as she apologized. I shook my head and forced a smile. Everyone looked tense, waiting to see what Nolan would do. He was known for being strict. I didn’t want anyone to get in trouble because of me. “Thank you. You’ve all taken care of me for years. Please don’t blame them, Nolan.”Solon looked at me and gave a small nod, showing he approved. Colin squeezed my hand to reassure me. Nolan stared at me for a moment, then nodded. “No one will be punished,” he said, sounding gentle for once. “Doctor, check her first. Then everyone can go back to the party.”Everyone relaxed a little. The doctor, a middle-aged woman whose name I couldn’t remember, led me to an exam room. Solon and Colin followed, staying close. Solon leaned in and whispered, “Don’t worry about Nolan. He gets protective.” Colin nudged my arm and grinned. “Yeah, and he needs to learn to relax.”I felt the pack’s mind links buzzing with worry and questions, but I pushed them away and focused

Talia’s POVThe room fell silent.“Talia, what do you remember last?” Solon asked.“Dinner. Last night, at home with you and Father. Father wanted to celebrate my return from Shadowclaw,” I answered.Nobody answered. Solon went pale, and Della covered her mouth with both hands.“Why is everyone looking at me like that?”“That was five years ago,” Solon said.“What? What do you mean? That can’t be true,” I said.“You don’t remember fighting the Rogue King? Or why I’m still recovering?” Solon asked.“The Rogue King? We never fought the Rogue King,” I said, confused. The way he said it made it sound real, but when would that have happened? Had I really been in a coma for five years?Solon turned to Nolan, angry. “You said she’d be okay.”“She is,” Nolan said.“You call this okay? She’s lost five years of memories!” Solon snapped.“It’s the ritual,” Nolan said. “Camilla warned us there’d be a price. We waited five years to see what it would be. This is it.”The happiness in the room vanis

Talia’s POVThe excitement that had danced across his face faded, replaced by a cloud of worry and disappointment. “Talia, I’m your mate. I’m Alpha Nolan of the Bloodmoon Pack.”Mate? He couldn’t be serious. I just rejected Jason. There was no way he was my mate.I stepped back, folding my arms tight against my chest. “You think I would fall for that?”"Talia, I’m telling the truth. You're my mate," he repeated. "We've been mated for six years. We have two children.""I've never seen you before in my life." I backed up another step. "Do you know what this looks like from where I'm standing? I woke up an hour ago in a hospital bed in your territory with a needle in my arm. Somebody brought me here from Silverfang. And now the Alpha of Bloodmoon is telling me we're mated.""That isn't what happened.”"Then start with the hospital. Why was I there? Did you drug me?”"I just need you to trust me. This is going to take a while to explain.”I scoffed. He was buying time. "I'm going home." I

Talia’s POVI stood at the entrance of the grand hall, searching for a familiar face.But I didn’t recognize anyone. The hall was full of people chatting loudly, and kids running around. I felt out of place."Excuse me, can I help you?"A young maid walked up, holding a tray. I quickly turned and let my hair cover my face so she wouldn’t recognize me."I think I took a wrong turn," I said. "Sorry. What's going on here?""It’s the prince and princess’s fifth birthday," she said, like I should know already. "Everyone from the pack is here.""The prince and princess?" I repeated, confused. "I didn’t know there was a birthday today."She gave me a puzzled look. "You really didn’t hear? It’s all anyone’s been talking about for weeks."I tried to play it off, forcing a small smile. "Guess I must have missed it. I’m new around here.""That…makes sense,” she said. “From your clothes, it looks like you just recovered. Yes, this is a huge event for Bloodmoon every year. You should go back and g
