The Jilted Luna Chapter 243
“I’m not talking about the Gypsies,” Victoria said quietly, meeting her father’s eyes. There was a deeper meaning behind her words. She wasn’t really worried about the Gypsies. She was thinking about the people who had tried to abduct her, the attacks on the Redmoon Pack, and now the sudden appearance of the locust swarm. One strange event could be a coincidence, but all of them happening around the same time felt different. It felt like a pattern.They had suspected something like this before. They had spent countless hours wondering whether these incidents were connected or simply unfortunate events happening at the same time. But after hearing what Carlisle had revealed, their suspicions were becoming harder to dismiss.If someone really was behind all of this, then the kingdom was being attacked from every direction. Their enemies could be trying to weaken them through the borders, the packs, and the food supply. But there was another possibility that bothered Victoria even more.

Every moment they spent hesitating made the situation worse. In just ten to fourteen days, the eggs laid by the female locusts would begin to hatch. Each female could produce between one hundred and one hundred and fifty eggs in a single batch. With thousands of locusts already covering the western territories, one successful hatch could send their numbers into the millions.If that happened, the West could descend into chaos almost overnight. The damage could easily become worse than what the South was already experiencing.“Have you asked Archmage Jayden if there’s any way to destroy the swarm with magic?” Victoria asked, still hoping they had another option.Her father shook his head with a tired sigh. “Jayden has already looked into it. The swarm appeared so suddenly that there were no warnings or signs beforehand. It was almost as if the locusts had simply appeared out of nowhere. If we had discovered them earlier, he might have been able to contain them with a large area spell.

But right now, Lance looked like he was the one falling apart. The realization hit him so hard that Victoria could see it in his trembling hands and the pain written across his face.“V-Victoria… how did this happen?”He struggled to get the words out, his voice barely audible. The thought of her being with another man had already been difficult enough, but this was something else entirely. He had thought learning about her fated mates would be the hardest thing he would ever have to accept. He had been wrong.Victoria had been another man’s Luna.And not just any man. Carlisle.The Alpha of the Redmoon Pack.Lance felt as though someone had driven a blade straight through his chest and then twisted it. He could barely breathe as his mind struggled to accept what he was hearing. The woman he had loved for so long had once stood beside another Alpha, not simply as his partner, but as his Luna.It hurt more than he wanted to admit.Victoria, however, could only stare at him. She still c

He motioned for Victoria to start eating, then leaned over and served his mate some food himself. Lance quickly followed, filling Victoria’s plate before she could reach for anything.“I remember you loved these. Pan-seared scallops with garlic, and those buttery lobsters from the eastern coast,” he said with a soft smile as he placed a generous portion in front of her.Victoria couldn’t clearly remember those meals, but something about the bright color of the lobster and the tender, glistening scallops immediately caught her attention. She gave Lance a polite smile.“Thank you.”She took a bite, and her eyes widened almost at once. The rich flavor spread across her tongue, warm and savory, and for a moment, she forgot everything else around her.Back in the Redmoon Pack, meals had been simple, sometimes so plain that they barely felt like meals at all. No one had gone out of their way to make anything special for her. Most of the pack’s resources were carefully rationed, especially w

Besides, the territory-wide conference was likely to continue for several days, perhaps even weeks, until they found workable solutions to the problems affecting the kingdom. Every decision they made during this period would matter. The people were already worried about the state of the kingdom, and how the Royal Court handled these crises would determine how much trust and support they were willing to give the crown.“Ophelia, you know we can’t do that, right?” Victoria said gently. She wanted to explain why the coronation could not simply be postponed, but the moment she looked at Ophelia, the words died in her throat.Ophelia’s eyes were already filled with tears. The hurt on her face was so deep that, for a moment, it looked as though Victoria had personally betrayed her. Her lips trembled, and before Victoria could say anything else, Ophelia turned around and rushed out of the room.“Ophelia, please. Let me explain.”Victoria’s voice followed her into the hallway, but Ophelia did

Even though Lance already knew Victoria had fated mates and understood that he was not one of them, he still couldn’t bring himself to give up. He knew how painful it was to walk away from someone you loved. He knew what it felt like to imagine never seeing that person again, never hearing their voice or standing beside them. So maybe what he was doing was selfish. Maybe it was foolish to go against the Moon Goddess’s design. But his heart refused to accept that he had to simply step aside and watch someone else have the woman he loved.Victoria, of course, had no idea about the quiet battle taking place around her. She was completely unaware that Lance had already decided he would not give up on her, even if fate itself seemed to be standing against him.By the time they reached Victoria’s palace, their conversation had naturally come to an end. Just as Lance had promised, he stayed in the guest receiving area while the Omegas brought him tea and some snacks. Victoria went upstairs t
The Jilted Luna Chapter 6: Wear something nice II
Tori’s POV As instructed, I put on something nice, a dress I had been holding onto, hoping for the day I could wear it in front of Alpha Carlisle, sharing a quiet dinner together. I never imagined that day would come so soon. After washing up and dressing, I applied light makeup to conceal the exh
The Jilted Luna Chapter 5: Wear something nice
Tori’s POV The next day, the sun glaringly pierced through the curtains. I couldn't remember when I had fallen asleep the night before, but as far as I recalled, I dozed off in the woods after crying the entire night. But now... I looked around and saw that I was back in the Alpha suite. I was
The Jilted Luna Chapter 4: I'll let you live, but in loneliness...
Tori’s POV I immersed myself in my work, hoping it would help numb the pain slowly consuming my heart. As night descended, no one reached out to me or even sent a mindlink, leaving me feeling utterly isolated, as if I had been cut off from everyone. But I pushed those thoughts aside and focused o
The Jilted Luna Chapter 3: Something I owe...
Tori’s POV It was as though they were making no effort to hide their actions, openly flaunting their connection in front of everyone, intentionally deepening my hurt. The mockery in their voices was unmistakable, and it stung sharply in the silence that followed. Carlisle's subordinates seemed
