~Ava

I paced the length of the room for the hundredth time, my bare feet making no sound against the soft rug. My thoughts were loud enough. Was this really the best choice? Signing a contract to be the Luna of a man I barely knew… all for revenge?

I paused, catching my reflection in the mirror across the room.

I looked broken. Hair messy. Eyes tired. Hollow. There were no sparkles in them anymore. No joy. Just pain wrapped in grief. I ran my fingers over my cheeks, wiping away the silent tears. What was left of me, really?

I had no home to return to. No family. My brother was gone. Murdered. And the world, as usual, moved on like nothing happened.

If I turned down Edward’s offer, I’d be back on the streets. Alone. Vulnerable. And more depressed than I already was. But if I accepted… there was a chance. A real chance. Revenge wasn’t peace, but it was something. Something to hold on to.

I took a deep breath and marched to the door. He told me to think about it. Well, I had. And I had m

*Alpha Kings Contract Luna* I hope they make it so they can't be with anyone else as well during that time, either. I think it will make people not show her any respect.

    His kiss deepened, months of restraint yearning in a single breath. Ava’s fingers dug into his shoulders, pulling him closer, desperate to make up for every moment they’d lost. Edward’s hands moved over her like a man starved, memorizing what he’d once sworn to forget.“Edward…” she breathed against his mouth, her voice trembling.He broke the kiss, resting his forehead against hers, his breath ragged. “You have no idea how many nights I dreamed of this,” he whispered. “How many times I stopped myself because of that damned contract.”Her eyes softened, shimmering in the silver light. “We both did,” she whispered. “Pretended it didn’t hurt. Pretended we didn’t need this.”He brushed his thumb over her lips, voice low and rough. “I tried to convince myself I could stay away. That I could live with the distance.”“But you couldn’t,” she said, the corner of her mouth trembling into a faint smile.He shook his head slowly. “Not from you. Never from you, thanks to the moon goddess for givi

    The night air was cool when they left the hall. The faint music of laughter and clinking glasses followed them down the corridor, fading behind the soft thud of their footsteps. Ava’s robe brushed lightly against her legs, her head lowered, tired.Edward walked beside her, saying nothing. The silence between them wasn’t awkward — it felt charged, like something unseen hovered just out of reach.When she stumbled slightly on the polished marble, his hand went out on instinct. His fingers brushed hers.A spark leapt through him — sharp, electric. His breath caught. The corridor swayed.And then… his eyes flared gold.Mate.The word slipped from his lips before he could stop it, barely a whisper, lost to the hum of distant music.He froze where he stood. Ava had already pushed the door open and gone inside, unaware.Edward stayed rooted to the spot, chest rising and falling fast. His pulse thundered in his ears. He looked behind him, scanning the empty hallway, half-expecting to see some

    Edward walked through the darkened path, his boots crunching over gravel as his eyes scanned the dimly lit garden. The moonlight flickered through the trees, silvering the leaves and bathing the path in an eerie glow. His heart beat violently, Fenrir growling restlessly within him, urging him to go back.Then—he saw her. A lone figure stood beneath the lanterns near the fountain, her dress shimmering faintly in the soft light. His pulse quickened as he stepped closer. “Mildred?” he called, his voice barely above a whisper. No answer. He walked faster, stopping just a few steps behind her. “Mildred, is that you?”He reached out and touched her shoulder.The woman turned around, startled—and Edward’s heart dropped. It wasn’t Mildred.“Oh! Alpha King Edward!” she gasped, her eyes wide with disbelief and excitement. “I can’t believe it’s really you!” She bowed deeply, trembling with awe. “It’s such an honor to be in your presence, my king!”Edward immediately withdrew his hand, taking a s

    The grand hall glimmered with gold and silver light as Ava and Edward stepped through the tall arched doorway. A low murmur rolled through the crowd before it rose into applause and cheers. The scent of roasted meat and polished oak filled the air, blending with the faint hum of music drifting from a small band tucked near the corner.Flashes from cameras flickered like tiny stars, capturing the moment as the Alpha King and his Luna entered Frostfang’s ceremonial hall. Bodyguards in dark suits stood alert along the walls, their earpieces gleaming each time the lights caught them. The crowd parted smoothly, heads bowing, smiles stretching wide in awe and reverence.Edward’s expression was calm, confident—a perfect portrait of a ruler at ease among his people. He offered polite nods and the occasional wave, his smile measured yet warm. Ava, at his side, managed a faint curve of her lips, her gaze steady though her stomach twisted in quiet unease.Liam appeared near the front, his smile

    The older woman—still steady and calm—watched Ava closely, her hands folded before her.“My lady,” she said after a quiet moment, her voice soft but sure, “if you wish to be certain by modern means, we have a clinic here in Frostfang. The healers there use the new equipment—blood work, scans, everything. You could take a pregnancy test and know for sure.”Ava blinked, her thoughts whirling. The room suddenly felt smaller, the air thick. “A clinic…” she murmured, her voice faint. “Yes, I—I’ll do that. I want to be sure.”Her vision swam for a second. The world tilted, and her knees almost gave out. The woman caught her arm just in time.“Careful, Luna,” she said gently, holding her upright. “You’ve had quite a shock.”Ava nodded weakly, gripping the woman’s arm as she was helped out of the bath. Water dripped down her legs, pooling on the tiled floor. The woman reached for a large white towel and began drying her with slow, firm strokes, the way a mother might tend to a frightened chil

    The chamber arranged for Ava and Edward was elegant in a quiet, expensive way. The walls were pale cream with gold accents that caught the warm light from the recessed ceiling lamps. Floor-to-ceiling windows opened to a balcony overlooking the Frostfang woods, the moonlight washing everything in silver. The air smelled faintly of cedar and fresh linen. A large velvet sofa sat near the corner, opposite a bed draped in dark silk sheets.Ava stood by the window, her fingers tracing the edge of the curtain. Her eyes wandered across the space, and her chest tightened. This was the same room where Liam had rejected her months ago. The same floor where she had begged for an explanation, the same air that had carried her tears. Everything looked the same—the polished mirror, the scent of cedarwood, even the faint creak the floor made near the fireplace. Only she was different now. No longer the heartbroken girl who had been cast out, but the Luna of the Alpha King.Edward walked slowly around
