“Are you alright?” His voice had me meeting his gaze.

The softness in them had me moving before I could think and my hand instinctively reached up to the side of my face without breaking eye contact with Cassius.

“Are you hurt?” He asked, starting towards me and reaching me in a blink.

I inhaled sharply as his scent filled me at his close proximity. I shook my head. “No, I’m fine.”

A frown creased his forehead and he stepped closer into my space, forcing me backward until I was backed up against a wall.

“Don’t lie to me, Sylphie.” His voice was a growl that sent a shiver through me or maybe it was the coolness of the wall against my skin, either way, I was trapped now, between his large body and the wall.

“What does it matter?” I muttered, dropping my hand to my side and lowering my gaze.

“It matters to me,” I jerked slightly when I felt his hand against the skin of my face where Zenya’s hit had landed. Then his fingers started a slow,

  • The Alpha’s Banished Luna   Chapter 064

    ╔═━─────━▒ Cassius ▒━─────━═╝I left the council in a trail of fire, but my head ached more than ever.My response on the child murder case didn't do a thing to quell the agitation that hung around their necks, even though my threat was enough to shut them down once more, if anything, it clearly made it worse.And those damn Elders, they had clearly shown their disapproval of my decision even though they still couldn't do anything about it.It would be foolish to bask in that fickle victory.I knew the elders well. They wouldn’t take this lying down… not for much longer.Not when the odds were starting to flare deeply against Sylphie—against me.I needed to somehow get to the bottom of this if I wanted to deal with this insurgency as soon as possible.The ache in my head intensified and I groaned, rubbing harshly against the stubborn bloody pang.“How do you intend to handle this, now? Things are starting to shift out of our grasp and unfortunately, rather quickly too.” My beta, G

  • The Alpha’s Banished Luna   Chapter 063

    ╔═━─────━▒ Cassius ▒━─────━═╝I shouldn’t have let Sylphie leave the house.I most certainly should have been there with her when she was spending time with our son in the city, not because I didn’t trust Reis to step in if she was ever put in harm’s way, but because I wanted to make up for all the times that I had missed in his life.I wanted to learn about the things he liked and didn’t. And it would have made for a perfect bonding time.The idea of letting them wander the street at a time like this—even though protected—was also a critical decision. Still, I couldn’t ignore the glint of sadness I’d caught in her eyes and her disappointed composure when she’d realized how outrageous her request had sounded. I knew the risk it involved but I didn’t want to make Sylphie feel any more caged up than she already was.Besides, her appearance had been cloaked behind the magic of the ring Akanni had artifacted. We had taken the precautionary measures for her to enjoy her day out with ou

    ❀° ┄───────╮ Sylphiette ╰───────┄ °❀I could feel it from the balcony.The charged air that carried the angry voices of the raving mob, weighed by the stronghold of the steel gate and tall walls surrounding the perimeter.Their clamors echoed behind the bars keeping them from barreling into the grounds.They held up sighs. Boards scrawled with red, angry, hateful words, displaying their grievances and trepidation as they rioted behind the gates.But it wasn't any of that that had me stuck still and wide-eyed.It was their voices.The angry words they threw out in protest, their fears and animosity unhidden in the way they rattled at the gate like wild animals fighting for escape from a fire trap.Their voices screaming, “Burn the evil witch!” “Give us back our children!” “Kill the traitorous bitch!” “You don't deserve to live!” “She’s a demon!”Nasty, heartbreaking words that tore at my chest, scraping up old wounds that taunted my innocence.I felt my skin prickly from thei

    ❀° ┄───────╮ Sylphiette ╰───────┄ °❀The next time my eyes opened, I was in a completely different background.I felt it through the haze as my eyelids fluttered open, sifting bright light through the curtain of my lashes until my gaze fell steady on the canopy above me.I was in my bedroom, and I realized it as my gaze raked through the space, over things I found familiar but something stood out.A scent.Heady, like the soothing scent of home with an underlay of crisp air and the wild.Cassius.My head spun as it turned towards where his scent felt the most potent until it found him.He’s seated at the corner, near my bedside, eyes glued to his phone’s screen, his brows knitted with a furrow that sat between his brows. His other hand settled against the seat's armrest, elbow propped up against it and his knuckles cradled against the side of his head.I should have been worrying about my health or perhaps even made a sound that’d notify him that I was awake.But I couldn't

    ❀° ┄───────╮ Sylphiette ╰───────┄ °❀Today was supposed to be one of the most peaceful moments of my life.But instead, it turned into a freaking nightmare right before my eyes as the little boy burst into flames and a pile of flesh, blood, and guts around me. I froze, unable to think, unable to breathe. And mostly, unable to unsee what I had just witnessed.The sight was horrid, mortifying. So horribly that it made my gut churn violently, I almost puked, bile rising in my throat.My mind spun, clashing with every possible thought it tried to process. What the fuck had just happened? Who the hell was that little boy and where the fuck had he come from?The cogs in my head knotted with each other like rusted nuts but it couldn’t form a coherent response to what I’d just witnessed. My mind looped, replaying the image of this little boy exploding into pieces in front of me. His blood splattered onto my dress like Paint roughly splashed onto a blank canvas, soaking into the fabr

    ❀° ┄───────╮ Sylphiette ╰───────┄ °❀“Emily, settle down, will you?”She let out a nervous laugh, “My apologies, my lady. It’s just… Is it really okay for me to sit here with you?” Emily asked after a moment.I smiled softly at her. “Why not?”“Well… I mean, I am only a servant. I’m not supposed to—”I waved a hand in the air, cutting her off. “Nonsense. You brought us here, didn’t you?”She nodded. “Yes but—”“And you’re not wearing your uniform so there’s also no need to worry about people talking. I have this look on as well,” I stated, flashing the artifact sitting on my finger. Earlier, she had been stunned when she found out it was me cloaked with the magic on the ring. The look on her face was unforgettable.“Just think of us as friends having lunch.”A look flashed across her face but for a moment she looked as though she was warring with herself but then she blew out a breath, her shoulders rising and falling with the action, and nodded.“Yes, my lady.” She said so
