The Barren Luna’s Revenge; Dear Ex, Your Only Heir Is Mine Chapter 28
Carmen's POVThe walk back to the museum was painfully silent. Cayden seemed so lost in thoughts, but for some reason, it felt like he was subtly protecting me, by always being a step behind me.We finally reached the end of our mentally draining journey, to see the guards already stationed, waiting for us.“The council has begun.” One of the guards announced loudly, his eye still on Cayden.I frowned immediately. “They started without him?” The guards lowered their heads awkwardly, it seemed even then they knew there was something weird going on.“They just started, the Voss family first ordered us to announce it, then the royal family and the others just had to follow suit.” The Voss family?Was Sarah already trying to push Cayden to decide? She truly wanted to control Cayden.I took a deep breath, never had I ever met such an ambitious lady in my entire life. She did not even care about her own marital happiness, just eager to prove a point.That she could rule over an Alpha meant
The Barren Luna’s Revenge; Dear Ex, Your Only Heir Is Mine Chapter 27
Cayden's POVThe light swallowed me whole. One moment, I was right there in the celestial realm with my mother, and the next, the bright spots gathered around my body like fireflies and carried me off against my will.Mother's figure blurred at the edges, her smile trembled with sadness. As she lifted a hand toward me, all I could hear was her distant voice.“Carmen's baby should not be touched.”“The child is a prophecy…and a reckoning.” Everything shattered. It was just like a dream I didn't want to believe happened.I gasped violently as my eyes snapped open. My knees were in pain as they hit the cold floor. Sweat drenched both my shirt, and my chest. I gasped for air, and was breathing unevenly, as if I had just been fished out of water.The parchment was beside me, with its edges burned black, and a clear message that it cannot be used to transport me to my mother again.Carmen, who stood a few feet away, stared at me shocked. I could see her wide-open mouth as she gazed at me.

Cayden's POVCarmen stared at me with an unknown emotion that filled her eyes.“Is marrying Sarah the only way for you, right now?” I nodded slowly, though uncertainty twisted inside me.“At this point, maybe it is the only way.” At least, that was what kept coming up in my mind. My thoughts, however, were still trapped in a far more disturbing truth. Carmen's pregnancy.Even until now, the possibility refused to settle properly in my head. It felt unreal, so unreal.Carmen had been barren for a long time, so how come she had a child? The more alarming fact was the fact that she looked the same, and did not radiate a pregnancy scent.If the museum had not exposed her for a brief moment, I would have been led astray with the others until she probably gave birth to that baby.Carmen sighed for a moment before she pushed towards a particular portrait. My eyes froze as I saw the portrait. It was the portrait of my mother as she took a headshot.“Her face had always been flawless, but up

Cayden's PovThe words of Sarah pushed me to my limit, my claws extended from my nails in rage.I dug my hands into my palm to stop my anger and regain my senses.A commotion distracted Sarah as her gaze shifted to the dining hall. I also looked over, a familiar scent warted over my nostrils.Carmen!She wore a long flowing purple gown, the shiny pearls in her gown seemed to radiate the glow of the moonlight.She looked every bit like a Luna. A wonderful one. And she was pretty.I had no idea how that thought came into my mind but I let it remain there.She arrived with Silas and they already had a problem with others, really?Silas really was not born with the gift of silence. He had already spoken enough carp with a loud voice that I could hear him clearly.I was not even there but the words that I heard irritated me, not to mention the short-tempered Jaime.“Shall we take a look?” Sarah asked me as she stood up. Clearly, she was not even asking.A sign of domination and I had not e

Carmen's POVThe nightshade pack always looked beautiful during funerals. The entire place looked even more fanciful than my wedding.The silver flames danced across the black iron torches while ceremonial drums echoed endlessly through the grounds like the heartbeat of some ancient creatures sleeping beneath the earth.Even the nobles danced around the bonfire.I sat in my seat, my food in front of me, and I ate happily. The meal deserved all praise available.It was delicious and so spicy, a beautiful dish indeed.Beside me, Silas ruined whatever little peace I had gotten.“Look at these people,” he muttered loudly as he sat down. His eyes scanned all the werewolves.“They worship the dead, a stupid dead wolf more than the living fools.”“Foolish spendthrifts, how can they spend so much money? The tables, the decorations, that statue—did they bleed themselves dry?” Silas was filled with jealousy, the amount of resources that were spent just this night was as much as double the Silve

Cayden's POVThe nightshade pack had always honored their dead differently.Humans buried themselves beneath the cold earth and spoke soft prayers to their loved ones before moving on with their lives, but in the supernatural world, the practice was quite different.Wolves believe death was not the ending; it was a return. A return to the moon, to the moon goddess, our progenitor.A return to the very origin of our existence, an origin that watched over every hunt, every birth, and every war fought beneath silvery-blue skies.My mother had been dead for centuries, yet her anniversary was treated like the passing of a queen whose spirit still wandered among us. The entire pack grounds transformed festively as the night approached.The moment the moon rose, the celebration began. Black banners embroidered with the insignia of the Nightshade pack were hung from the high stone walls of the manor.The flames for the torches burned ever so brightly along the ceremonial path leading to the a
