‎Alpha Lucian.

‎What was he doing among the council elders?

‎I wanted to leave already, but as I turned to go, he suddenly spoke.

‎"Seraphina, welcome. Come and have a seat." He pointed to the chair beside him, smiling mischievously at me.

‎I had no intention of sitting anywhere near him, so I deliberately chose a seat close to the door, as far away from him as possible. The smile on his face vanished instantly.

‎A few minutes later, Dad and Beta Silas walked in. We all sat in silence

    Alpha Ronan stood outside the palace gates with his arms folded across his chest, a mischievous smile playing on his lips."Trouble in paradise?" he asked.I rolled my eyes."Don't flatter yourself. I just need your help."He smirked."I thought you could handle your problems on your own."For a brief moment, I questioned whether coming here had been the right decision. But if I wanted answers, Alpha Ronan was the only person with enough authority to help me.I took a deep breath."Can we talk?"His teasing expression disappeared instantly."Of course."He turned to the guard. "You may leave.""Yes, Alpha."He bowed before walking away."Come with me," Ronan said.He pushed the palace gates open and gestured for me to enter.It was my first time stepping inside the palace, and I couldn't stop myself from looking around. It was even more beautiful than I had imagined. Colorful flowers lined the pathways, their sweet fragrance drifting through the air, making the entire place feel peace

  • THE LUNA WITHOUT A WOLF   CHAPTER SIXTEEN

    Gasping for air, images of how the Umbra Beast had been magically chained filled my mind. Even after I opened my eyes, I could still see it clearly.I sat upright, my lips trembled in fear.Closing my eyes again, I tried to replay everything I had seen. The Umbra Beast wasn't destroying villages or forcing innocent people to beg for their lives like the history books claimed.Instead…It protected them from their enemies and healed diseases that even their own healers couldn't cure.Slowly, I climbed out of bed and walked toward the window. The early morning sunlight seeped through the curtains, filling my room in a golden glow, but it did nothing to calm the storm within me.Every history book in the library and every story I had been told since childhood…had all painted the Umbra Beast as the most evil creature to ever exist, as a monster.But my dream had shown me something completely different.Am I supposed to believe my dreams......or am I supposed to believe history?***Breakf

    I walked back home from the library. I thought that by now I would feel better after finding out about my past, but instead, I felt even more confused than I had that morning. Going to the library in hopes of uncovering the truth about myself wasn't futile, but at the same time, I didn't like the answers I found. I had ended up with even more questions but no one to answer them.The history book had talked about the Great Lycan War, the First Alpha King, and the Blood Moon Massacre. This wasn't the first time I had read about the Blood Moon Massacre, but now that I was starting to relate the story to my past, everything seemed even more confusing. There were no records about the last Blood Moon, so I was still trying to connect the dots.I tightened my grip on my bag as I walked past my street. I didn't want to go back home yet because Mom would definitely notice the change in my mood. I contemplated going to either Liam's house or Evelyn's house.In the end, I chose Liam's house. I s

    I woke up with mixed feelings. For the first time in weeks, I had an actual plan for the day. I wasn't going to lie on the bed all day, staring at the ceiling, wondering why my life was like this, and that alone made me happy.But at the same time I was scared. What if I discovered something today that changed everything? What if the truth about my past was worse than I imagined?I stared at the ceiling for a few seconds, letting out a long sigh. Last night, I already made up my mind, so I'm not going to let fear stop me.I was done waiting…waiting for my parents to tell me the truth when it seemed like they were not ready to do that. I was done waiting for the council to uncover something strange about my past, which would lead to another investigation. Since my parents had decided to take the secret to their grave, then I would have to uncover it myself.For now, I already have a starting point, which is the Blood Moon Eclipse. And today, I intend to find out how it was connected to

    RONAN'S POVThe Morning of the Selection CeremonyI was almost done getting dressed. Outside my room, I could hear the entire town buzzing with excitement. Palace guards and servants hurried through the halls, making the final preparations, while voices and music drifted from the pack hall where the ceremony would be held.Someone knocked on my door."Come in," I said as I adjusted my tie.Father walked in. The moment his eyes landed on me, a look of pride filled his face."My boy, you've finally grown," he said with a smile. "I still remember holding you in my arms when you were born. Now you're about to have your Selection Ceremony, and in no time, you'll be taking over the throne."I smiled tightly."You know," he continued, "this kingdom needs someone strong and ruthless to rule and defeat our enemies."I sighed inwardly.Here we go again."That's why you're the perfect person for the throne, my son. Lead this kingdom to greater heights so our enemies won't dare challenge us. And

    RONAN'S POV‎‎The Day of the Selection Ceremony‎‎The palace hallways echoed with the sounds of the ceremony, footsteps of Alphas from neighboring packs, servants rushing from one place to another, and voices blending into each other.‎‎I stormed back to my room, my jaw clenched in anger. The moment I stepped inside, I slammed the door shut behind me.‎‎Normally, I would have stayed behind to exchange pleasantries with the other Alphas and elders.
