ログイン"I know it's Noah's feast," I replied to my father-in-law hesitantly, confused “But, as his wife, shouldn’t I…?”
“I consider you a smart girl, Moonjoy.” His fingers tightened even more on my shoulder, almost to the point of hurting me “I trust you’re able to see what’s happening now, aren’t you? It’s only a matter of time before Noah is named the hei
Time seemed to freeze for a few moments as Violet's words seemed to reverberate in the air, the gravity of what she had said making my whole body tremble. What was happening that night? Was it a nightmare I couldn't wake up from? My throat tightened and my blood ran cold, but even so, my first impulse was to raise my eyes toward the rest of the pack to check if anyone had heard, even though Violet's tone of voice had been no more than a whisper. I knew Noah wouldn't be pleased if other people knew about that secret, even though Dean was the only one who would be truly furious.And, unfortunately for all of us, I could see some of the wolves closest to us begin to whisper, their eyes wide and their expressions eager with this new piece of gossip.“What…” Noah finally broke the silence, his words p
"I know it's Noah's feast," I replied to my father-in-law hesitantly, confused “But, as his wife, shouldn’t I…?”“I consider you a smart girl, Moonjoy.” His fingers tightened even more on my shoulder, almost to the point of hurting me “I trust you’re able to see what’s happening now, aren’t you? It’s only a matter of time before Noah is named the heir. Look at this celebration. It’s just a glimpse of the future he has ahead of him. The life he was born for.”"I... I see, but..." I swallowed hard "What does that have to do with...?"“Don’t make me be the one to remind you of the nature of your marriage, Holly.” He rolled his eyes, as if I were stupid “You know the reason Arthur chose you to be my son’s wife is
“This…” Noah gritted his teeth, his whole body tensing as if he had just fallen into a trap. “Machiavellian woman…! How many people has she gathered? Why does it seem like even the trees have grown mouths and won’t stop chattering?”“It’s a huge party,” I said, part of me happy that Kaia seemed to have put a lot of effort into it. “Maybe even bigger than Cassian’s banquet.”“Is she crazy?” he growled, not looking at all happy to know the magnitude of that celebration “How does she know I didn’t bring Garrett’s head with me? We could be about to face the biggest battle of this war right now, and she wasted time on something as useless as a party…?!”“She knows you would never do that,&rdquo
A long moment of silence passed between us, but I no longer had the courage to look at him. If he wanted to continue being with me, then I would let him do so for days, weeks, or even months, if it would help him release all the stress I had caused him. However, when he spoke again, to my surprise, he seemed calmer.“It worries me greatly that I have to fight the Goddess herself for your loyalty, Holly.” He sighed, sounding exhausted “I know you have this… Strange closeness to the Goddess. But that can’t become a problem between us. It can’t be the reason you put yourself in danger… Every… Fucking… Time.” Noah growled each word slowly “If the Goddess, or whatever entity gave you those visions, only had good intentions towards you, she wouldn’t do things like this. She wouldn’t have made you go to the chimera that night and wo
For the thousandth time that day, I looked up at Noah, my huddled body tensing even more when I realized he was following with a furious grimace on his face. His eyes were fixed on the carriage window, even though he couldn't see any of the scenery, and I knew he was doing it just to avoid paying any attention to me.“So…” I tried to get his attention again, pathetically, “I believe that if we’re returning home safely, everything went well at the diplomatic meeting yesterday… Right?” My voice was nothing more than a hopeful murmur, but I didn’t get any reaction from him.Nothing but making the corners of his mouth turn even further downward in pure dissatisfaction. Sadly, I just sighed heavily, knowing I deserved that silent treatment after breaking the promises I made to him.
“I’m setting you free.” She wrinkled her nose, as if she wasn’t pleased with it “I don’t know the reason, but the Goddess seems to truly want you back in the Silverheart Pack. After 18 years of silence, I finally felt her presence again…” Tears welled up in Flora’s eyes and her voice faltered “Perhaps I’m betraying my people and my Alpha now, but… I won’t disobey her. Not when I felt her will with such intensity.”“You… You’re really going to let me go…?” I looked at my now-free hands, still in disbelief “So… Everything you said… Is it also true…?”“What’s going on with everyone doubting me lately?” she complained, annoyed “I took a vow of honesty the day I became a priestess. But even if
It's not like I didn't know we'd be the center of attention the moment we stepped into the pack's central square. It was obvious all eyes would turn to us as soon as they noticed us.However, it was still an oppressive
My words seemed to shock them all, to the point that I almost regretted them. However, just as I was thinking of apologizing for interfering, Alpha Kaia rewarded me with another smile, much more kind and proud than all the others.
“You…” Holly’s voice trembled “You think the Alpha’s mate could…?”“Don’t say that out loud!” Louis hissed “If anyone hears us theorizing somethi
He had just finished saying those words, and all the men's eyes in that room were already on me, even Noah's, even though I knew that was impossible.“What?! No!” I gasped, flinching as I noticed Atticus mov
