KAEL

The sky was still dark when I stepped onto the palace balcony.

My men already prepared for Christine's rescue operation for tomorrow before we realized the mating ceremony wasn't tomorrow but the next tomorrow.

I discovered that after checking the invitation Harlan sent to me so they retreated and stayed low.

Moonfall lay quietly beneath me.

A few lanterns still burned along the streets, while workers slowly prepared for another day.

Somewhere beyond those mountains, Christine was waitin

  • The Alpha’s Discarded Bride   Chapter 175

    CHRISTINE The morning sun spilled across my office window, warming the wooden floor in soft streaks of gold.For the first time in a long while, I finally visited my office which looked abandoned already. It's been three weeks since Stephanie's trial and life was back to normal and Moonfall was thriving again. Outside my window, merchants were reopening their stalls. Children laughed as they chased one another through the streets. Wolves walked without weapons at their sides.The city was healing and so was I.I slowly ran my fingers across the familiar shelves.The books, reports, maps and everything else had been cleaned after the war, yet it still felt exactly the same.A quiet knock interrupted my thoughts and Nathan stepped inside carrying another pile of documents.He looked around the room before smiling. "So...""So." I said imitating him and he laughed."I never thought I'd see this place open again.""Neither did I."He placed the papers on my desk. "Everything is ready.

  • The Alpha’s Discarded Bride   Chapter 174

    CHRISTINE For the first time in what felt like forever, Moonfall city was quiet.It's been one week since the war happened. No war horns echoed across the city, no smoke darkened the sky and no frightened voices filled the streets.The city was finally peaceful. Kael and I rode through the streets toward Moonfall's highest court. The buildings we passed still carried scars from the war.Some walls had been rebuilt while others were covered in fresh timber where repairs had begun. Workers climbed ladders, shopkeepers reopened their doors and children chased one another through the streets again.Life was returning slowly.Today wasn't a celebration, it was an ending.As we climbed the long stone steps leading to the courthouse, my stomach tightened.Without thinking, I slipped my hand into Kael's and his fingers immediately closed around mine.He looked at me, his eyes were softer than I had ever seen them."Are you ready?" he asked quietly and I gave a small laugh that held no am

  • The Alpha’s Discarded Bride   Chapter 173

    CHRISTINE The first sound I heard wasn't the clash of steel, it was my own loud and terrified heartbeat.The two Moonfall guards stayed close on either side of me, guiding me away from the battlefield just as Kael had ordered.Behind us, the war is still going on.Swords crashed against each other, wolves howled and more blood soaked the ground. Every sound made me want to turn around and every sound made me think of only one person—Kael.I clenched my shaking hands.No! I couldn't just stay back, what if there is a chance to protect him. Nathan is still out there too. How can I stay back here while the most important men in my lives risked their own lives out there? I have to be there with them, I have to help out! "I'm sorry," I whispered and before either guard understood what I meant, I spun around and ran."My Lady!""Wait!"Their voices chased after me but I didn't stop running with every ounce of strength in me. My feet pounded against the broken ground as I ran through s

    STEPHANIE “Move Christine out of here immediately!!!” Kael ordered and his men took her away while she resisted and screamed his name. I didn't know how to feel at that moment but I wasn't supposed to care anymore. I looked away that instant. The battlefield had become a living nightmare.Smoke covered the sky and fire swallowed buildings I had known since I stepped my foot into Moonfall. The smell of blood and burning wood filled every breath warriors shouted over the sound of clashing swords. People were still dying because of my father and me.I looked at Kael, his sword was still stained with blood.His eyes never left mine. I know he still didn't trust me and I don't blame him if he doesn't.I didn't care about the consequences of my actions and already made up my mind to fight against my father even though it would cost me a lot but I had to put an end to all of these. If not because of anything but atleast, I wanted to make my late mother feel proud of me and redeem my s

    KAELThe war horns had barely faded when the palace came alive.Footsteps thundered through the halls and orders kept flying about. I was already out of the room I was with Christine. I fastened my sword to my waist and pulled on my armor while servants hurried around me with the last pieces of equipment. Outside my window, smoke was already rising above parts of Moonfall.The war had begun.I stepped outside the preparation room and found Christine waiting for me.She hadn't changed out of the simple clothes she wore that morning.Her eyes found mine immediately and neither of us spoke because there wasn't time.I walked toward her and rested my forehead against hers for one brief moment."I'll come back," I said quietly."You'd better," she answered with a small smile that didn't quite hide the fear in her eyes.I reached for her hand and squeezed it once and then I looked at Nathan who was standing beside her. "Protect her."He nodded once. "I will with my life." He said and I

  • The Alpha’s Discarded Bride   Chapter 170

    CHRISTINE The palace became quiet as the day drew close to its end. Outside my window, fires burned across the training grounds and warriors sat around them. Some sharpened their swords while others quietly spoke to the people beside them. A few laughed, but the sound never lasted long because everyone knew what tomorrow might bring.Sleep refused to come so I slipped out of bed as carefully as I could and wrapped a light cloak around my shoulders before stepping onto the balcony.Kael was busy handling a few things so I couldn't go to him. Cool night air greeted me immediately.I rested my hands on the stone railing and closed my eyes for a moment, letting the breeze brush across my face.The balcony door opened behind me and I didn't have to turn around before I knew who it was as his scent slowly filled my nose. Kael hugged me from behind and for a while, neither of us spoke.We simply stayed in that position watching the city we both loved.I could feel his breath on me and i
