Chapter Seventy Nine : A Path Begins to Open

Lucien’s POV

The wind was low that evening, brushing against my skin like a whisper from the past. I walked alone, hooded and quiet, my footsteps blending with the dust beneath my boots. These days, I kept to myself more than ever, but the whispers I’d started hearing on the streets wouldn’t let me rest.

I stopped by a small herbal stall in the town square, pretending to inspect the dried leaves, but my ears were fixed on the conversation happening behind me—two warriors, speaking low but urgent.

“…they say The Lady’s child will carry the power of two bloodlines,” one muttered.

“A rare prophecy… a Lycan born of fire and silver blood,” the other replied. “King Evric must be the one protecting it at all cost.”

I frowned, my grip tightening around the leather pouch at my side. So, it had begun. The people didn’t know the child wasn’t his. They didn’t know Ronan still lived. But the idea that this unborn child would be “great” was spreading, an

  • The Luna’s Return   Nothing Left to Cry About

    Chapter Ninety Four: Nothing Left to Cry AboutSelene’s PovI locked the door behind me and sank to the floor, letting the weight of the moment crash into me. My hands trembled as I pressed them against my belly—the place where Ronan’s child still lived, still grew.He was alive. Ronan was alive. And I saw him. I saw his face.And yet, I couldn’t run to him.Because I wasn’t free anymore.The moment I lifted my head to look at Ronan across the crowd, I had felt it—hope, like fire in my chest. But it disappeared just as quickly when I saw Evric standing behind me. I was still his. The pack thought I belonged to him. The entire kingdom saw me as his mate.Lady of the Pack. The woman Evric claimed.A soft knock landed on the door. I stayed silent. Maybe he would go away.Another knock. Then the door creaked open. I forgot Evric had the key.He stepped inside, tall, straight, his boots loud against the floor. I turned my face away and wiped the tears, but he already saw them.“You’re cryi

  • The Luna’s Return   After the Storm

    Chapter Ninety Three : After the StormRonan’s POVThe gates of the pack house opened with a loud creak, and I stepped in first, the Alpha guards bowing low as I passed.Alpha.It would take me a while to get used to hearing that again. It didn’t feel real yet.Lucien followed behind me, his face calm, but I could feel his tension. His posture was straight, his jaw tight, like a man who knew he had burned all his bridges.I didn’t speak until we were deep inside the house and the doors had closed behind us. Everything felt too clean, too formal. I looked at the grand staircase, the polished floors, the golden crest on the wall.All this… mine now.I turned to Lucien with a half-smile. “So… you going back to Evric’s pack tonight or in the morning?”He shot me a look and snorted. “I’m not stupid.”I laughed. “Come on. I heard they serve good food there. And lots of tension.”Lucien groaned. “Don’t remind me. I wouldn’t step a toe back there even if you dragged me.”“I just might,” I tea

    Chapter Ninety Two: The Mask Comes OffRonan’s POVThe air was still.My chest rose and fell slowly as the elder raised my hand high, announcing me as the final winner of the Alpha challenge.The last warrior had dropped to the ground with a loud thud, groaning in pain. I didn’t bother to look at him. I already knew what came next. The victory. The crown. The title.But even now, standing above them all, I didn’t feel anything.Not yet.My mask was still on. And until it came off, everything would stay silent—hidden.The crowd clapped, some cheered, others looked unsure, and a few of the elders exchanged stiff glances. They didn’t like what had happened. I had beaten every single one of their chosen warriors.One by one.And still, I stood.I could feel the weight of their stares—angry, suspicious, and afraid.I Lucien again. He was still standing beside Evric and Selene. His face was neutral, as it had always been—but I saw it.The tiny curl at the corner of his lips.He was pleased

  • The Luna’s Return   The Battle

    Chapter Ninety OneThe BatttleRonan’s POV The last fighter dropped to his knees, blood dripping from his lips.I stood in front of him, battered but still breathing.He didn’t rise again.The arena was silent for a second, then loud with murmurs and disbelief.I had won.One by one, I had defeated every challenger they threw at me.Some had laughed when I entered the ring, others had stared in confusion. A stranger. A nobody. Just muscle and scars.But now?Now they stared like they couldn’t understand what just happened.Even I wasn’t sure how I was still standing.I glanced up at the stone platform where the elders sat.Their faces were cold.Unmoved.They weren’t happy.They weren’t proud.They were angry.Because someone like me—someone unknown—wasn’t supposed to win.One elder stood. His voice echoed through the arena like thunder.“This is unacceptable! He is an outsider. We do not recognize this… result.”The others nodded. Whispers. Frowns. Shaking heads.But my eyes were on

  • The Luna’s Return   “Why Does He Feel So Familiar?”

    Chapter Ninety: “Why Does He Feel So Familiar?”Selene’s POVThe crowd was loud. The warriors were fighting. Blood splashed on the ground, and the wind carried the scent of sweat, dust, and rage.But my heart wasn’t focused on any of that.I kept looking at one man — the one wearing a mask.He stood at the center of the ring like a shadow. Silent. Still. Dangerous. Yet something about him felt… wrong.Or was it right?I wasn’t sure.From the moment he walked out, I had felt it. My chest tightened. My stomach twisted. My heart — it started beating so fast I thought it would explode. It didn’t make any sense. I didn’t even know who he was. His face was covered, his voice quiet, and he hadn’t even looked at me directly.But still…Why do I feel like I know him?“Selene,” Lucien said from beside me. “Don’t stare. You’re drawing attention.”I turned away quickly, embarrassed. “Sorry,” I muttered.But I couldn’t help it. Every time I looked at him, something inside me screamed.I rubbed my

  • The Luna’s Return   Recognition

    Chapter Eighty Nine ; Recognition Lucien’s POVWhen we arrived there, I made sure we sat at the back, so Ronan wouldn’t see Selene and Selene wouldn’t notice him.That was the plan.The field was already crowded. Wolves from different regions had gathered to watch the challenge. Some came to fight. Some came to prove their strength. But Ronan… he came with a purpose.I followed Selene and Evric when I saw them leaving the house. I couldn’t just stay behind. I didn’t know what Evric was planning, and I definitely didn’t want Selene walking into the middle of that battle without knowing the truth.So I caught up with them.Now, sitting behind them, I kept looking around. My heart beat fast as I searched the crowd. Ronan hadn’t come out yet. But I knew he would.And when he did, I knew everything would change.Selene looked beautiful, glowing in her soft dress, her hands resting on her belly. She smiled a lot, but I could tell she was hiding things. Her smiles were too controlled. Her l
