Josie POVFounded by Her Majesty, Luna Queen Victoria Devanci Osborn. I read the stone at the entrance of the new building. I was at the grand reopening ceremony of the White Moon Haven Warriors Center. The lycan king was away, and the dowager queen couldn't make it, so I was sent in their stead. The center was built for wounded warriors, retired and their families who had lost their loved ones. It provided housing, medical care, and employment for those who have sacrificed for this great pack. It was one of the projects started by the former lycan Queen. Flora looked especially emotional today, probably missing her mother. I pulled her in for a side hug, and she closed her eyes for a moment. "Thank you for being here today," she whispered. "I'm very honored." Everyone in the pack spoke so highly of the late Luna Queen. She was passionate about life and the humanity of everyone. I exhaled and looked at the hundreds of pack members in the hall. My stomach twisted."Smile," Autumn
JosieI was scared by what I heard. My heart was racing as I imagined the worst. One of the lycans said he was attacked. I called Ronan's number again, but he didn't pick up."I'm worried about my brother," Flora cried for a long time, her body trembling. I hugged her tighter. She finally got out of my embrace, her eyes relieved. "He's fine," she said. "How do you know?" I asked, my hands slightly trembling. "I mindlinked him just now. They were ambushed, but they killed the assailants," she said, and I felt relief course through me. Then her face turned frowning. "Brother is injured with a silver dagger, though." A silver dagger is the only weapon that can cause a lycan true pain, and sometimes can even kill them. "He's lycan is healing him," she assured me after seeing my worried face. I exhaled in relief. Instead of just staying in the castle, we decided to go to the town square. I tried calling Ronan again, but he didn't answer. Summer linked her arms in mine as we walked to
Days later, after that phone call, my heart was still flipping. I had a massive smile on my face everywhere I went. I was asked whether I was born with that grin or if all humans are born smiling. I felt silly that I still blushed, and my stomach was in knots with butterflies. I didn't remember having this kid-like feeling before. I saved his number that night and wondered if I should call him. "Should I call him, as in, he called me, it's only right," I said to Kane. He was busy going through some files across from me. Flora was dozing off on the couch in the far corner of the room. I stood, pacing and playing with my phone. "You're still squirming about this? No offense, Luna, but are you sure you're not madly in love with this man?" he asked, eyeing me suspiciously. "No, this is a political marriage. The man has a mate, for Christ's sake. But we are husband and wife, and I swore fealty to him; checking up on one's husband is what people in marriage do. If he's sick or if he dies
Ronan POVThe long-standing war with our rival pack, the Moon, the Black Wood lycan, was getting fiercer each day, but my mind was occupied with thoughts of my human wife. I scoffed, human wife. It still felt surreal just to think about it. Her father was part of the humans who orchestrated the summit attack that killed over twenty elite lyans, including our parents, yet I'm busy pining for his daughter. 'We are not sure if he was part of it,' Rafe refutes. Charlie Atwood served as vice Chancellor at the time, and I believe he was part of it. Stephen and I have managed to kill six human government officials and destroy their families' reputations, but a name remains unrevealed. 'Even if her father was part of it. Josie is not her father. She is kind and good. We've heard reports about the work she is doing in the pack, despite them thinking she is unworthy. She's gaining trust and praise.'Indeed, I've been getting positive reports about her. The cabinet members are deliberately gi
On Sunday, I visited the packhouse with Flora. They were having a barbecue, and everyone was drinking, eating, and having fun, others are dancing to a fast song. "If you brought me out just so I can confess and tell you who my boyfriend is, you're mistaken. I'm not telling you," Flora said sternly. "I only brought you because you've been confined to your room the whole week, and I thought you needed air." This girl has absolutely refused to reveal her boyfriend's name. Her grandmother grounded her to get her to talk. "Luna, here you are." A tall, thin man brought me a platter of different meats and veggies. "Thank you." "What about me?" Flora complained. The man blushed. "I'll bring you a plate, my princess, forgive me." "No, we'll share, thank you." I smiled. We sat at the bench, in the corner, and away from prying ears. "Have you had sex?" I asked, and she flushed, but shook her head no. "But we've kissed, tongue and all. And he touched my breasts, and my bottom, mu
"The former Luna queen, a pacifist, dedicated years to building peace with the human government. She envisioned a future where we could coexist, trade fairly, share territories, and put an end to bloodshed. Surprisingly, it turned out that even the humans wanted the same." He laughed bitterly. I swallowed hard, fidgeting with my hands in my lap.His eyes remained fixed on the road, his jaw clenched. "The summit happened. It was a trap." His voice dropped to a low murmur, and my blood ran cold. The humans had set a trap for them. Why would they do that? "But they wanted peace," I croaked, my head swirling with confusion, and I felt tears hit my eyes."My father was the commander of the king's guard," he explained. Like he is doing right now, while Ronan is away, and the royal guard commander is away. "Our side didn't have enough people. After all, what could go wrong? But the humans..." he paused. I wanted to put a hand on his shoulder, but her hands were shaking so badly. "As soon
