LEANNA’S POV

“Bring them to me,” my grandfather commanded softly, motioning towards one of his guards.

I watched as the guard reached forward and cupped the flowers with both hands. Beads of sweat rolling down his forehead as he presented it to him.

The tension in the air was extremely palpable as everyone watched with bated breaths, as my grandfather appraised the flowers.

My breath got caught in my throat as I awaited his verdict. I was confident they were real, but a part of me still felt

    LEANNA’S POVThe sky had darkened considerably as I made my way back to my cottage. My thoughts still in complete disarray as I dreaded what tomorrow held.“Romeo?” I called out as I stepped into the cottage. My heart leaped to my throat as I didn’t get a response. I rushed towards the room, shaking my head slightly as I watched the rhythmic rise and fall of his chest.“I’m being paranoid,” I muttered to myself as I took one last look at him before I stepped out of the room and plopped down on the couch in the living room.I stared at the ceiling, tracing the intricate details before my consciousness slipped into a hazy feel and I fell completely asleep.——-“Ugh,” a soft groan escaped my lips as my eyelids fluttered open groggily. “Shit!” I cursed as I laid eyes on the clock, realizing I had about thirty minutes to get to the clearing Stormfang and I agreed to meet. I jumped out of the couch, throwing on a tank top and a pair of shorts, rushing towards the door, only to be stopped

    LEANNA’S POVI walked towards my grandfather’s quarters, walking past the guards who merely threw me a glance but made no move to stop me.I had visited his place more times in the last week than I had in years. I stepped forward, knocking slightly on the door. I threw a quick glance at the sky instantly realizing there was no way he would be asleep by that time.“Who is it?” He called out wearily. I took a deep breath, hoping my visit would be fruitful before I let out.“It’s me, Leah,” I said.“Leah? Come in,” he said, the surprise in his tone extremely evident. I took a deep breath as I pushed open the door, stepping into his office.His figure sat upright in his seat, his tired eyes wide as he stared at me. The vast number of papers on his desk told me his job was anything but easy. I clenched my fists as I remembered that was to be me someday. The one to worry about the affairs of our people.“To what do I owe the pleasure Lena?” He asked after motioning for me to sit down. I t

  • The Luna’s Inheritance    CHAPTER 28

    LEANNA’S POVMy mind spun as I made my way back to my cottage. The sky had began to darken, marking the end of a way too stimulating day.I pulled on the handle of the door, only to it to open up immediately. Confusion spread across my features as I wondered if his caretaker had forgotten to close it up.“Weird,” I muttered underneath my breath, but I couldn’t shake the nagging feeling that something had happened.“Romeo?” I called out as soon as I stepped in, taking hurried steps towards the room.“Here,” he replied softly, but th grimace in his voice made my blood run cold. I pushed open the door to see the last thing I wanted in the world.“Hello cousin,” Lena called out sweetly, her pearly whites shining bright at me as she stroked Romeo’s hair softly. “Get away from him Lena,” I growled, my chest heaving as my gaze began to turn blurry. I held on to the door for support as I watched her sharp nails leave streaks of blood in his scalp.“Lena!” I screamed, my hairs standing on end

    LEANNA’S POV“Instructor!” I called out, waving as I walked towards him, ignoring the weird gazes that floated my way. The sea of students automatically parted as I made my approach.I raised a brow silently, as it seemed as though news of my initial success had reached the ears of each and every member.I watched as he turned towards me, his eyes lighting up as he let out, “Leah! Took you long enough,” he said with a wide smile that reached his eyes.A slight smile tugged at my lips as I moved to stand in front of him. I had not seen him since my embarrassing fight against Lena. If he hadn’t stepped in, I knew I wouldn’t have gotten off without a few broken bones.“I’m sorry I haven’t stopped by to visit,” I said with a sheepish smile, a hint of red creeped up my cheeks as I did in fact feel guilty. “It’s okay,” he shrugged it off, clasping a strong arm over my shoulder. My tense muscles relaxed under his cheerful gaze.“Can we go somewhere to talk?” I asked, my eyes surveying the

    LEANNA’S POVI followed the familiar silhouette, limping through the woods carefully as I kept my eyes on my surroundings. I knew I was safe as long as I was within the village, but I wasn’t ready to test my theory.I watched as the silhouette stopped in front of a lake. I moved closer, as stealthily as I could, just so I could catch a glimpse of the figure.A small scowl spread across my features as I can face to face with the figure. “You just can’t seem to stay away can you?” The bastard alpha let out with a devilish smirk as he stared straight at me. I resisted the urge to wipe the smile off his face, trying my best to ignore how good he looked, still clad in a pitch black suit.“What do you want again?” I let out, not hiding my irritation as I sat down on a log of wood nearby.“I heard your hearing went well. Seems like you escaped getting chewed up,” he said with a faint twinkle in his gaze.My irritation lessened as I remembered the help he rendered. I could’ve been sabotaged

I stared back at him, flinching slightly as I watched something akin to pride flash across his features, before disappearing quickly.“Impossible!” Lena’s voice rang out the loudest, pulling me out of my reverie. “She must’ve cheated somehow,” she went on to say. Her voice was filled
