Aria’s POV

When Jaxon dropped me off in my room, I had planned to just sleep for as long as I could. I didn't want to think about the fact that Moonclaw Pack members were found dead right here in StarCross borders. I had enough on my plate already and even though I had a vendetta against MoonClaw I wasn't ready to address that just yet.

But my plans to sleep in were cut short as immediately after the Pack's physicians checked me and gave me the clear, I noticed some neatly dried leaves well hidden in my wardrobe.

Evelyn must have left them there just like I requested. She didn't question me when I asked her for a poisonous plants, despite her eyes housing a thousand questions.

Evelyn said that they were tasteless, but the smell they’d give off wasn’t going to be hidden to the framed nose. She also told me that ten boiled leaves could kill a full-grown man in less than twenty minutes.

But if I used one or two?

They would only cause harm, fatigue, dizziness, maybe even temporary paral

  • The Luna Who Came Back Wrong   16

    Aria's POVI paced around my room anxiously till my legs could no longer carry me and I had to sit on the bed.Different thoughts were racing through my mind all at once, and each one was worse than the last. Just tearing the plants caused my fingers to be red, and I was even feeling dizzy at the moment, and the tea spilling all over Jaxon was sure to do much damage.My ears were perked up listening for any movement that'll be an indication that the guards were ready to drag me out of here and go burn me at the stake like it was done in my previous life.Oh goddess! Did you bring me back just to make me go through this again?A chill ran down my spine at the thought of my burning flesh.Gosh! It would have been better off if I stayed dead than having to live this kind of a life.My eyes lids were becoming heavier and heavier until I could no longer keep them open and sleep enveloped me. …………..I jolted awake to the sound of Jaxon bursting into my room with the excitement of a toddle

  • The Luna Who Came Back Wrong   15

    Jaxon’s POV. I went into my room feeling hot and bothered, wiping at my chest and neck with the dry parts of my shirt. After getting a dry napkin, I stood in front of the mirror, shirtless, staring at the angry red blotch spreading across my chest and the dots on my neck. How strange, the tea hadn’t even been that hot. How was this possible? I’d been burnt before, actual burns. From battles, training, fights, fire, magic. This? This felt different from all of that. I couldn’t exactly explain it. My skin was raw, sore to the touch. The centre of the burn had gone dark pink, almost red-purple, and it itched around the edges. But the worst part? It stung like hell. I couldn’t even touch that part. I hissed under my breath and went into the bathroom, dipping the napkin in water as I continued to look at myself. I reached out to take the cold napkin I’d dunked in water and pressed it against the burn, flinching immediately. “Shit.” I dabbed carefully, trying not to growl. The sk

    Jaxon's POV. War was coming. I felt it in the wind, and I could see it in the reports that landed on my desk. I had dropped Keira off and went to the meeting to be met with silence. And you know what they always say about the silence that always came before a storm. Chief Trore stood in front of me now, arms folded, brows furrowed. He held himself up well, but it was quite obvious that he was tense. "There's growing aggression in three territories, one is a minor one." He said. "Ours, the Moon Claw pack, and the Iron Rock pack. Minor scuffles so far, just border patrols clashing, traders getting intercepted, false accusations flying around." "Which of them started it?" I asked, already knowing the answer. "Depends on who you ask, sir." Trore said. "Each one blames the other. Nobody's claiming responsibility, and everyone's acting like they're the victim." I leaned back in my chair and sighed, pinching the bridge of my nose. "I don't want a war." I muttered. "But if it

    Aria's POV. I stared at the flowers for a long time after Zie went quiet.Something felt wrong at her sudden silence. I expected to keep on nagging me non-stop about how this was a bad idea but she was mute.I guess that's a good thing then, I could finally think.The meeting went well, which was a clear sign that Jaxon hasn't figured out that I wasn't Keira…yet. But that's not an excuse for me to relax, I needed to plan ahead.I needed to start off with the one person that knew this Pack like the back of their palm..Jaxon.I needed to know the in and out of this Pack as well as its weaknesses, strengths, secrets and whatever things I could find on it.Because if I'm not able to kill Jaxon, this information might come in handy to make sure my head was still on my neck.I took a quick shower and put on a soft pink dress, the kind that made me look like I was made of petals and silk. Zie had mentioned once that Keira liked petals. I didn't know if this shade was one of her favorites,

  • The Luna Who Came Back Wrong   11

    Aria’s POV. I was tired. Not physically. But the kind of tiredness that came from holding in too much, pretending too hard, listening to a voice that never shut up. Zie had been talking all night and morning. Endlessly, and always about one thing. I understood, but I needed my sleep. “Keira deserves justice, wherever she is.” She said for what had to be the one millionth time. “She deserved peace and protection. And none of you gave her that. None of you.” I rolled over in bed and shoved my face into the pillow. And then I screamed. Good thing the pillow muffled my scream so nobody came in running, but it was loud enough to make my throat sting. “Are you finished?” Zie asked, coldly. “Really? I should be asking you that!” I growled. “Because last I remember, I’m trying to keep the only identity I have left, so maybe shut up for five minutes?” Silence. “You mean Kiera’s identity, you fucking witch!” I sat up slowly, dragging a hand through my tangled hair.
