Luna's Pov "Why did you reveal my secret?" I asked Deus. "It wasn't me but Xavier's doing. He got overexcited when he realized you are our mate. In his excitement, he forgot his surrounding, the party and thousands of wolves that were present there. He forgot everything... except you." "He wanted to express his excitement and share his joy with you. But in an attempt to do that he kind of messed it up." Deus said while avoiding making eye contact with me. That was unexpected and unacceptable at the same time. His reckless choice to express and share his feeling had pushed me into a dangerous situation. It was so stupid of him to forget the surrounding and focus on me. So, I didn't know how to handle it. It wasn't his intension to reveal my secret but he did shout it out to everyone. It wasn't Xavier but his foolishness that was at fault so I didn't know how to react to this. I guess I could react by venting out my anger on him. "You idiot, stupid, jerk, dummy. You are such a loose
Xavier’s PovShe was blushing…again because of what I said. God, I loved her blush so much. It makes me crazy to see her all flustered. She deliberately avoided meeting my gaze and then batted her eyelashes unconsciously. Immediately I was enchanted by her. I smiled as I stepped closer to her but she quickly ran upstairs away from me.“Xavier. Catch” Cole said as he threw a bundle of clothes in my direction while still keeping his eyes closed. That’s when I realized I was still naked. God, shifting back in a room full of people wasn’t a good idea. I quickly wore my clothes and informed everyone that it was fine to turn around. Luna’s parents along with Liam were staring at me murderously. My parents, Cole, and Coden was also present here, probably to attend my wedding.“Now that you are dressed up, let’s talk.” Alpha Max said. He folded his arm over his chest and scowled at me. From the look on his face, I knew he was going to scold me for everything.“Do you know what you did yesterd
Luna’s Pov“Luna, if you are only marrying Xavier for protection then please don’t do that.”Those were Cole’s word. They still were ringing in my ear even though several hours have passed since that time he said that to me. Just before my wedding, Cole had entered my room only to say that to me. That sentence was bugging me, irritating me, probably because I couldn’t understand his intension behind that one sentence. It seemed like it was a plea rather than a suggestion. It seemed like he desperately didn’t want me to marry Xavier. Maybe it was nothing. Maybe it was something but whatever it was only time had the power to reveal it.I looked at my left through the glass window of the helicopter and there it was, eight of the top highest mountain in the world, staring back at me. Every time I looked at these mountains, I didn’t know why but I get a nostalgic feeling as if they were my home
Xavier’s PovWhen we finally came back to Luna’s house, everyone was waiting for us in the yard. Luna seemed tired so she went to sleep in her room. Before going she actually suggested me to sleep in the living room with Cole, Coden and Liam. I was puzzled by what she said. It was our wedding night but my wife suggested me to sleep with boys in the living room. My Lycan and I were annoyed to no limit.From the look on her face, I could tell she was trying to indirectly tell me that she didn’t want me in her bedroom. Maybe she was nervous by the idea of us spending the same night alone in one room. But we’ve already done that before, only she didn’t know about it.I wanted to follow her but first I had to talk with my father. I searched for my father and found him in Alpha Max’s study room discussing my coronation. Oh, I absolutely forgot I was supposed to be coronated as King right now if not for the revelatio
Xavier’s PovI flew my helicopter as far as I could take it without crashing in these high hills. Then I landed it on Dovan, a small village on the mountain occupied by Sherpa. From there, I started my journey on foot to my destination. No, it wasn’t easy. The trail was like a roller coaster. You either go up or go down, making my journey descending as equally tired as ascending. The 300 m cliff on my right was not helping either. The path was narrow and if I ever stumbled even once then I would fall straight down to the river and I didn’t think anybody could survive this fall.I was aware of the fact that with every step I took, I was getting farther from my home but closer to destination. Leaving Luna behind has made my heart hollow and emptiness has found its grip on me. But at the same time the beauty of nature, that was surrounding me right now, was gifting me a sense of motherly comfort. It was healing my heart and making me for
Xavier’s PovI was stuck in a time frame that was the only reflection of my past yet it was inflicting an enormous amount of pain in me. The scene in front of me was only a story of the past. However, it was a real story of my past that had a tragic ending. Maybe that’s why it was crushing my heart so much to watch it countless times. Like a broken film reel, it kept on being replayed but never once did it pause. And I didn’t think it has any stop button.“It all happened in past. Luna is safe in the present world.” Deus was trying to comfort me. But little did he know I could feel his pain too. I knew he was shattered too. He was ashamed that he couldn’t protect her in the past. It was my fault too. Even if he had control of the body that day, I should have helped him to save her.Once again she died in front of me, protecting me and I was only being a spectator of it. If only I could close my eyes then I would. If only I could hide away then I would. If only I could roll out of this
Luna’s Pov“Wow. Finally, I can see you dressed as a girl,” Killian said as he eyed me and licked his lips. I felt disgusted from his stare. “You promised to be my wife but you already married Xavier. You betrayed me but no worries. I have come to punish you.” He said mockingly.Cole growled at him angrily, warning him to shut up. He was ready to shift any second. “Killian. You smell like a rogue.” Cole said while scrunching his nose. Oh, so Killian became a rogue now. But how did he found our house? This place was surrounded by the cloud so it was sort of invisible to outsiders.“I live with them,” Killian said as hundred more rogues came and stood behind Killian. Rogue were lone wolves who either were kicked out of their pack or just ran out of the pack on their own. Some were violent while others were peaceful. But something told me, these rogue were neither violent nor peaceful. They were just feral, driven by a common cause. I just hoped that cause wasn’t me. “I’ve been following
Third Person PovLuna and Cole got out of the bus and started their journey. Climbing up and down those trekking trails, drinking water from the streams they would stumble in every ten minutes and eating pieces of hard cheese offered by local people. This was how they spend their whole journey to the lake. Neither was it easy nor was it safe but Luna didn’t care about that. She only cared about covering as much distance as possible so she could reach the lake before the moon replaced the sun in the sky.Cole was grumpy but he didn’t show it. After all, he was afraid that she would notice how he didn’t like the idea of her and Xavier being together. Heck, he didn’t like the idea of her with anyone else but he could do nothing about it since she wasn’t his in any way. No, she wasn’t his girl and that was the truth he didn’t want to face at all.He was in love with Luna and everything she did. With every pa
