THE CHUBBY LUNA’s CONTRACT MARRIAGE TO THE LYCAN KING 64
Merikh’s POVElder Marcus stepped into my private study. He closed the door behind him and bowed his head respectfully."Alpha Merikh," Marcus said, his voice quiet. "Vance informed me that you summoned me urgently.""Sit, Marcus," I said, pointing to the chair across from my desk.Marcus took his seat, adjusting his sleeves while keeping his observant eyes locked onto mine.I pulled up the map console embedded in the surface of my desk, tapping the glass to project the sensor feed.A blinking red marker lit up near our northern territory boundary line."Our sensors picked up a signal forty minutes ago," I revealed, leaning over the console. "The Head Elder has surfaced. He is hiding inside an abandoned staging post in the northern outskirts, three miles past our border posts."Marcus leaned forward, his eyebrows rising in genuine surprise. "The northern staging post? He chose a dangerous location to ground himself.""It is isolated but it gives him a fast escape route across the inte

Merikh’s POV"Dad?"Liam’s small, hesitant voice pulled me back from the dark. He was still holding my sleeve, his eyes wide with confusion as he looked up at my frozen face.The ghost's voice was still reverberating in my ears, ringing through.Five years of grief, five years of searching and five years of carrying a grave in my heart, shattered in five seconds by a whisper over a phone line.‘I missed you. And I missed our little boy.’I swallowed hard, forcing the shaking out of my hands. I couldn't do this here. I couldn't collapse in front of my son."I... I have to take care of something, Liam," I said, my voice sounding flat and distant, even to my own ears.I forced a stiff smile and patted his shoulder. "Stay here with the nanny. Play with your blocks. I'll be back soon."Before he could ask another question, I stood up and walked out of the nursery, shutting the door behind me.The moment I was in the hallway, the mask slipped.I leaned against the wall, gripping it as my ch

Maya's POVTwo hours ago, I had sent Thomas with strict orders to make sure to discover what had happened to Merikh from any source.The memory of his gasp over the phone haunted every second of my silence.To keep myself from spiraling into panic while I waited for his report, I immersed myself in the only thing I could control, which was the pack's financial ledgers.The reality of Caleb’s ruling was far worse than I had anticipated.As I scrolled through five years of accounting records, auditing supply l

Merik’s POVThe air vanished from my lungs. My ribs felt as if they were being crushed and heat spreading through my blood from my core outward to my fingertips.My skin felt on fire.I gripped the edge of the desk, my knuckles turning white as I tried to draw a single breath.‘What is happening?’On the far corner of the desk, my phone began to vibrate, its screen lighting up with an incoming call.I forced my right arm to move, every nerve ending screaming in pain as I reached toward it.My fingers brushed over it just as the call disconnected.A second later, it rang again.I dragged the phone toward me with a trembling hand and managed to swipe the screen open."Merikh?" Maya's voice came through the speaker, tight and anxious. "Merikh, it's me. I need to update you on my timeline in Red Leaf. I'm staying at the palace until–"I opened my mouth to answer her, to tell her to stay safe but all that came out was a gasp of pain.My fingers lost all strength and the phone slipped from

Maya's POVI stood in the doorway of the Alpha quarters, looking at the suite that had once felt like a cage.This room held years of bitter memories, the cold nights, the political arguments and the weight of a broken marriage.Now, as the legal Alpha of Red Leaf, I was taking it back.I needed a secure base of operations inside the palace while I waited for Theresa to pinpoint Leo’s exact location at the northern outpost.I turned to the four guards standing in the hallway. "Move every piece of Caleb's personal belongings out of this room. Pack his clothes, his ledgers, his furniture, and his personal items into crates and dump them in the guest wing near his private quarters.""Yes, Alpha," the lead guard replied, stepping into the suite with three men to begin clearing the space.They worked quickly, pulling Caleb’s things from the wardrobe and clearing his personal files off the desk. I stood by the door, watching them strip away every trace of his presence.Footsteps echoed down

Maya's POVI pushed open the doors of the council chamber and stepped into the room.The room was packed. Dozens of nobles and council members sat there, their voices were loud until they heard me walk into the room.Silence fell over the room instantly.I walked to the center, unbuckling my broadsword and setting it on the table. I looked up at the council, resting my hands on the table.Elder Marcus sat near the front, flanked by the elders. To my left, the seat belonging to the Head Elder sat empty, a reminder of his sudden disappearance."Alpha Merikh," an elder spoke up, his voice trembling slightly. "We convened this emergency session to address a grave matter of capital security. Rumors are circulating among the guard posts that Lady Maya broke her house arrest and fled our territory last night."I leaned forward, my eyes sweeping across the crowded benches. I kept my face devoid of any stress or hesitation."Lady Maya has not fled," I stated calmly. "She suffered a severe reac
