I followed the attendant through the corridors, but part of my mind stayed behind with the portrait.

My hand found the pendant beneath my collar without my telling it to, fingers tracing the familiar shape of the wolf crest as I walked. I couldn’t explain why that painted face had settled into me the way it had — not fear, not quite recognition, something in between the two that I didn’t have a word for yet.

I decided not to ask anyone. Not tonight. Something told me the answer would come when

  • The Luna My Alpha Regrets Losing   The First Suspicion

    Kael woke with the same thought still sitting in his mind from the night before.*She might be pregnant.*He tried to dismiss it. Instead, it grew more convincing the longer he sat with it — my exhaustion, the physician, the reduced schedule, the extra guards, the instinctive motion of my hand toward my stomach.Most of all, he remembered how carefully everyone around me answered any question about my health.He understood something clearly now. People weren’t simply protecting information.They were protecting my privacy.That made the possibility feel far more real to him than it had the day before.-----“Do you want us to look into her medical records?” his beta asked.Kael refused immediately.“No.”“Why not?”“Because if she’s hiding something,” he said, “it’s hers to tell me.”He remembered Rowan’s warning. He wanted the truth badly. He didn’t want to become, once again, the man who made decisions about me without ever bothering to understand me first.-----I woke more aware o

  • The Luna My Alpha Regrets Losing   The Secret Between Them

    Kael woke having barely slept, the same thought from the night before still sitting unresolved in his mind.*What if Silverfang isn’t protecting Evelyn alone?*He tried not to leap toward conclusions. I could be recovering from something he knew nothing about. I could simply be exhausted by responsibilities I’d never asked for. It could be connected to the bloodline itself, something ceremonial or political he didn’t understand.He didn’t want suspicion to curdle into accusation.Still, something refused to fit cleanly into any explanation he offered himself.-----He attended breakfast with his delegation that morning, watching the palace staff more closely than before. A servant mentioned my schedule, then corrected herself immediately when another official approached. A guard received specific instructions about my movements. Another checked with Rowan before allowing anyone near my wing at all.He noticed something important — the protection shifted depending on where I was going.

  • The Luna My Alpha Regrets Losing   What He Came For

    Kael couldn’t settle that night, replaying my words over and over.*I’m building something here.*He understood now that I hadn’t been asking him to return to my life. I’d been telling him I already had one, complete without him in it.He thought about how different I’d seemed to him — not weaker, not angrier, simply someone who’d moved beyond the version of myself he remembered.His own apology bothered him too. He’d expected saying it would leave him lighter somehow. It hadn’t.Because I’d been right. An apology couldn’t undo what had already happened.-----His beta entered his quarters not long after.“What do we actually know about her years away from Blackwood?” Kael asked.“Very little,” his beta admitted.Kael understood, hearing that, how completely he’d let me simply vanish from his awareness once I’d left. He’d never once investigated what had happened to me afterward.“What does Silverfang’s archive hold?” he asked.“Her history is protected royal information now,” his bet

  • The Luna My Alpha Regrets Losing   The Alpha Arrives

    The palace felt unusually busy that morning. Guards stationed themselves along the main entrance. Officials moved with the particular urgency of people preparing something formal.I understood immediately.Kael was coming.“The Blackwood delegation has crossed the outer border,” Rowan confirmed.“How many are with him?” I asked.He gave me the number, and explained Kael was entering under diplomatic protection, not military authority. That distinction mattered — Lucien had made the boundaries plain from the start. Kael couldn’t bring Blackwood’s strength into Silverfang simply because of what title he carried.-----I tried to continue my morning routine, but his arrival kept pulling at my attention.I remembered the last time I’d seen him — not the respected Alpha everyone spoke of now, but the man who’d rejected me in front of everyone I loved, whose single decision had rerouted the entire direction of my life.But I remembered, too, that I wasn’t the woman who’d stood in front of h

  • The Luna My Alpha Regrets Losing   The Morning After

    I woke before the palace stirred, and for a moment forgot the ceremony entirely.Then I saw the royal insignia resting nearby, and it came back all at once.Yesterday, I’d accepted Aurelia publicly. Today, I had to live inside that decision.I touched the insignia but didn’t put it on yet. Nothing about my room had changed overnight. Everything about my position had.I was still Evelyn. The kingdom now knew me as Princess Aurelia.-----Leaving my room, the difference was immediate. Servants bowed. Guards straightened further than usual. Conversations stopped when I passed.A royal secretary approached with a schedule far denser than anything I’d carried before — meetings, historical briefings, requests from noble houses, invitations, petitions, ceremonial obligations, audiences requested from people I’d never met.“Was this all waiting for me?” I asked, staring at it.“Some of it has been waiting for Princess Aurelia for generations,” the secretary said carefully.-----Lucien arrang

  • The Luna My Alpha Regrets Losing   The Princess Accepts

    I woke before dawn, and for several seconds forgot what day it was.Then I remembered.Today, I would formally accept the identity of Princess Aurelia before the entire kingdom.I didn’t feel terrified. I didn’t feel completely ready either. Instead, a strange calm had settled over me — I’d already accepted the truth privately, the night before. Today simply asked me to stand before everyone else and acknowledge it.I reached for the pendant. For years, I’d worn it without knowing what it represented. Now I knew. My mother’s gift. My bloodline’s proof. The one thing that had survived when almost everything else had been erased.“You made it this far,” I whispered, unsure whether I meant the pendant, my mother, or myself.-----My attendants arrived, and this time I didn’t resist the formal clothing at all. I simply chose what I wanted to wear — elegant, restrained, still recognizably mine. Not a fantasy queen. Myself, standing inside a royal position rather than disappearing into one.
