SELENE'S POV

"The crimson drapes need to be replaced. These are faded."

The servant bowed her head. "Yes, Luna. I will see to it immediately."

"See that you do. And have the flowers in the entrance hall changed. The white lilies make the palace look like a funeral."

The servant hesitated. "Luna, those were ordered by Lady—"

"By whom?" My voice sharpened.

The servant's face went pale. "By... by the previous Luna, my lady. They were planted during her time here."

I stared at her. The words hung i

  • THE LUNA HE FORGOT TO LOVE    Chapter 67: Lost In Her

    Ronan's POVThe council chamber was warm, I shifted several times in my seat, my fingers drumming once against the armrest before I forced them still.The Elders sat according to hierarchy, their attention fixed on Auren, who stood at the center of the room with her hands clasped loosely in front of her. She was giving her report on the healing wing, composed and completely professional."The wounded warriors from the rogue attack are recovering well. Three have returned to light duty, while two more need another few days of observation."She paused, glancing at the notes in her hand."Supplies are running low on wound herbs. I have submitted a request for additional stock, which will help with the herbs I make here on my own. If the eastern patrol continues to bring in injured warriors, we'll need more within the week."The Elders nodded. One of them asked a question about the recovery timeline, and she answered smoothly.I tried to listen, I couldn't. My eyes followed her every move

  • THE LUNA HE FORGOT TO LOVE    Chapter 66: I Lost More Than A Treasure

    Melvin's POVMy hands remained fixed on the desk as I sat staring at the same report I had been trying to read since morning. The words blurred together, names, figures, border updates, none of them held my attention.My hand drifted slowly to my cheek, the skin had healed, leaving no trace of the mark, but I could still feel the sting. I could still hear the echo of her palm against my face and the way her voice had cracked when she said the words that broke me.You had me, Melvin. You let them throw me away like I was nothing.My hand dropped to the table, Nile stirred beneath my skin, restless and angry, still fixed on what had been taken from us.I pushed the papers aside and reached for another document, the one I had been avoiding.The physician's report, I had read it several times, but the words still felt fresh.Your body cannot produce an heir, never could, never will.I set the report down, my fingers pressing flat against the desk.For two whole years, Auren had been made

    AUREN'S POV “Are you alright?”Ronan looked at me with soft eyes. I blinked.The corridor stayed quiet around me. Melvin’s footsteps had faded completely, but my body hadn’t caught up yet.Ronan moved closer, his hand came up slowly. I could have stepped away, but I didn’t.His fingers brushed a strand of hair from my face before he took my hand, his palm was warm against mine, his fingers curling gently around my knuckles. He wasn’t gripping me. He held my hand as though he was giving me time to pull away if I wanted to, I didn’t.“You have nothing to feel guilty about, Auren.”I blinked at him.“What?”He tilted his head toward the corridor Melvin had disappeared through.“You stood your ground and faced your fear. That took a lot of courage.”I shook my head.“I’m not upset.”“Auren.”“I’m not, really. I feel lighter.”The words came too quickly.“I feel so free. I’ve never felt this light before.”He smiled, watching me with those steady eyes, I pulled my hand from his, my finge

    SELENE'S POV “Stop right there.”I stepped closer, blocking his path.“I know you’re hiding something. Spill it, now.”Vayric studied me, his eyes moved over my face, taking in my trembling hands and the rapid rise and fall of my chest.“Selene.”“Don’t do that.” I held up my hand.“Don’t calm me down. Don’t you dare tell me I’m overreacting. He knows something. I saw it, the way he looked at us, and I know you know a lot more.”Vayric walked toward the table, he poured himself a glass of wine, his movements deliberate and calm. The complete opposite of everything I was feeling.“Melvin knows nothing.”I let out a broken laugh. “You sound so certain?”“If he knew anything, he would have acted differently.”He took a sip.“He would have confronted us directly. Instead, he made a threat. That is the behavior of a man who suspects but has no proof.”I pressed my palm against the table, the wood was cool beneath my fingers.“What if he has proof?”Vayric set down his glass. “Then we’ll d

    SELENE'S POV“How dare you?”I burst through Cassien’s study door without knocking.He looked up from his desk, a quill still in his hand. His expression shifted from surprise to amusement.“You sent them after him. I know it was you. I dare you to deny it.”I crossed the room in three strides. My hands found the front of his jacket, and I pulled him toward me, the fabric bunching beneath my fingers.“I told you to stay away from Melvin, didn’t I?”Cassien didn’t resist, he let me pull him close, his face inches from mine. His eyes were infuriatingly calm.“Selene.”“Shut it!” I barked, my voice cracked.“Don’t you dare say my name. You sent rogues after him. You tried to have him killed on his way back.”He reached up and wrapped his fingers around my wrists, holding my hands against his chest.“I did what needed to be done, baby. I did it for us.”“You did what you wanted.”I tried to pull away, but he held on.“You’re obsessed with power, Cassien. You’re obsessed with taking everyt

    Melvin's POVThe road stretched ahead, empty and gray beneath the afternoon sky, dust rose from the horses’ hooves, hanging in the still air.I hadn’t spoken in miles, my jaw ached from clenching it too often, and my cheek still burned from the slap.The memory of her face kept replaying in my mind. The tears that wouldn’t stop rolling down her cheeks, the way her voice had cracked when she said the words that cut my heart into pieces.“I was your wife, not anymore.”The words stayed in my head, reopening the same wound every time I remembered them.My head pounded, and my vision blurred for a moment.Markus rode beside me. He had been quiet throughout the journey, watching me with the careful patience of someone who knew better than to push.But the silence had stretched too long, he finally broke it.“Alpha, you’ve been silent since we left the gates.”I kept my eyes on the road ahead.“I have nothing to say.”He studied me, his gaze lingering on the red mark across my cheek.“You s
