A year ago in the Western Empire, now the Western Kingdom.

“With all due respect, your highness, all you have done is travel, travel and travel some more! We are yet to see the spoils of all your journeys!” Lord Randolph said.

“That and the fact that you remain unmarried! How do you plan on ruling with a spouse?!” Marquise Highborn said.

“My daughter, Mirabel, has been waiting for you to formally ask for her hand!” Said Duke Fulher.

Rhode sat on his oddly soft chair while all the members of the court hauled questions at him.

He had assumed the position of ruler of their clan after his family’s untimely demise.

The only piece of his family left behind was Mirabel Fulher, his late brother’s widow.

It was Michael supposed to be getting the ear full, not him. Rhode was on his many adventures far South when he got the news of the disease that was spreading in the palace. He brushed it off, believing they had enough resources to employ the

  • The Remarried Luna   Chapter 21

    Rhode and Wales sat on his center table for what felt like hours plotting his infiltration of the great East.“I heard that it is the Luna who is responsible for their strong presence in the world right now.” Brian said.“How so?”“The Luna, Megan Brighton trained for the position since she was just five years old!”“So did most women who were betrothed from a young age.” Rhode replied, unsure of what Brian was getting at.“You don’t understand, Rhode. The reason the former Luna of the Jared clan picked Megan Brighton and not her niece was because Megan was an incredibly bright child!”“She was five and was reading and writing exceptionally! Acing everyone in her class and even her seniors! Word is, the Eastern empire transitioned into a kingdom so smoothly because of her.”“So Richardson is just a figurehead.” Rhode said.“A dumb one, at that! Some of my men in the East reported that Richardson and Aspen Bridget, Megan’s child

    Rhode remembered watching her retreat. She walked so light on her steps you could hardly hear her foot steps. Her scent was caught up in his nose. He had had enough of the castle for the day.When the coast looked clear enough, he returned back to the hole he used to get into the garden. He headed right back to him and Brian’s rendezvous point.“Rhode?!” Brian asked, shocked that he was back so early. Rhode transformed back to his human form and wore his trouser and his tunic.“That was really fast. Did something happen?!”Rhode shook his head. Brian would definitely have a field day if he said the reason he returned so early was because he was stunned by the Luna’s beauty.Brian had put so much emphasis on her brains and genius and didn’t once mention how beautiful she was. In a captivating way that felt good.What shook Rhode was the fact that he was never moved by women in particular. So much so that the rumor among members of his council was that he secretly liked men. Rhode never

    Chapter 23The rest of the week went by quickly. Megan and Rhode didn’t see much of themselves that week. Megan was busy finishing up what was left of her duties and Luna. Rhode was communicating with his clan who were on his neck about returning and marrying Mirabel Fulher.Megan still had not told Brianna or Rosetta about her plans to marry Rhode Wales and leave the East. The only people who knew she was leaving were her parents and brother who were in great support despite what people would surely think and say.Megan was sitting in her greenhouse for the last time. It had been years of her life pouring into her kingdom, her people, her husband.It was all taken from her and by the man she loved the most. She hated that she never had a choice in the matter.She would’ve done anything for Richardson. Anything. Her dream of a happily ever after now felt like a fool’s dream.She was grateful for Rhode Wales and he picked her interest a lot, however, he wasn’t the one she had spent her

    Megan and Richardson got married in the summer, some five years ago. As soon as they got married they were thrusted into a world of political and kingdom duties, something they trained for, yes but their extensive classes did not compare to the weight of their new lives. The young couple felt the heat to say the least. Young Richardson speed-walked through the halls, heading for his usual stop, Megan’s office. It was a place he retreated to quite often, and by often; everyday. The young king and new alpha found solace in the arms of his wife and Luna, Megan.Though trained for his position since his birth, the sudden death of his father the king and former alpha of his pack threw him head first into a tub of responsibilities he only knew of in theory. Megan, however, handled it like a natural. She blended right into her new position and took the bull by it’s horn, shocking her subordinates and members of the court.None of the past lunas were ever involved in official duties, all the

    Megan snapped out of her thoughts when she heard a knock on her door. The three women snapped their heads towards the door. "Who could it be?" Brianna asked. No one knocked on the queen's door except Richardson and he didn't wait before he entered. Could it be? Megan got up and hurried for the door yanking it open to reveal Aspen leaning on the door frame. "Hi!" Aspen said in a very fake high pitched voice. Megan heard her ladies gasping rather dramatically behind her, "what do you want, Aspen?" Megan asked her ex bestfriend, patience already thin. Aspen smiled, "Did you hear? I'm now in a room quite close to yours! Does it not bring back fond memories?" a sour taste formed in Megan's mouth but she ignored it. Megan gave her a small smile, "of course. I'm sure our play room is still standing back at my family house." Her response visibly shocked Aspen. Aspen was never good at hiding her emotions unlike Megan who had every reason to lash out, show her justified rage and anger. H

    Rhode got up quickly, knocking up the table in front of him along with the documents. “What do you mean by the queen is here?” Rhode asked, slightly pissed and Brian for lying to him. “She is sitting right on the patio, your majesty.” Brian said uninterestedly. Rhode left the room hurriedly, not minding that he was wearing just a loose tunic and pants with leather boots, Brian decided not to mention his choice of clothing to go see his bride to be. Rhode left his room and walked down the hallway to the patio, he was met with Megan sitting on one of the chairs. Brian wasn’t joking. “My queen,” he said as he bowed to Megan. Her eyes lit up when she took notice of his presence. She gave him a warm smile. “Please, there is hardly any need to bow to me, considering I will be one of your subjects soon.” Megan said, getting up to stand with him. Rhode smiled, “my wife is not my subject but my equal. I bow to you because you are my queen." Megan blushed. He always said the most absurd t

    Megan’s heart palpitated in her chest. She was not supposed to be here, she was still married to Richardson and even if she was not, a woman was not to see a man unchaperoned. It was sure to result in a great scandal. Megan wanted to keep a low profile until the divorce. If she was caught, she had no reason for why she was there.Why was Rhode so calm in the situation? He shrugged and said, “You can wait in my bedroom.” and got up. Brian came and said, “this way, Luna” directing her with an outstretched arm. Megan looked up at her ladies and followed Brian. Rosetta and Brianna being there would not raise suspicion because they went everywhere on the castle grounds.Megan followed Brian down the hallway passing a door left slightly ajar. It looked like an office. The queen had never been in the guest quarters before. Brian stopped in front of a big, antique door and put in the key, turning the door knob.“You can wait here.” He said and handed her the key, “lock yourself in if you wan

    Rhode closed the drawer and turned to face Megan, “can I sit?” he asked her, referring to the space beside her. “Oh, of course.” She said, slightly flushed that he asked. It was his bed after all. “Thank you.” He said as he sat down beside her, “he wanted to speak about our standing as nations, our diplomatic relationship.” Rhode said. “That is strange. Our relationship is fine right?” Megan asked, confused. “You mean the relationship between the East and the West. It’s not quite ‘our’ anymore.” He said and it struck Megan. In less than 72 hours she technically will not be a citizen of the Eastern Kingdom, though once their loved and revered queen. It did not quite sting as before. She was glad. “You’re right." She adjusted, "I just do not think that there is any reason for Richardson to seek you out. What did he say in particular?” “Well, he actually apologized.” Rhode started. Megan furrowed her eyebrows, “why? What for?” Rhode looked at his future wife interestingly, women ba

    “Why did you take this decision without informing me about it?” Brian asked angrily as he bursted into Rhode's office, his wolf almost rising to the surface as he snarled, but Rhode simply smiled. He was expecting Brian after all, he knew that after his announcement in the council meeting about his decision to personally oversee the mission to the west, Brian would barge in on him, demanding an explanation.Everyone had been shocked when he dropped the bomb and announced his decision to follow the soldiers to the rescue of his rival, the western alpha, but he was determined.He knew the council were trying to domesticate him, he could sense it in the way they tried their best to put a stop to every and any activity that warranted leaving the four walls of his kingdom. They were trying to drive him insane with longing and rage, then introduce Lord Fuhler to him as a savior. He could see right through them that it was almost hilarious. Almost.But he would not be Rhode If he allowed t

    “My lady! My lady!” Rosetta yelled as she burst through the drawing room to where Megan was seating with a book in her hands, the bold words Theories Of The Master Tactician written on the front.Startled, Megan glanced up, her hands resting as usual on her stomach, and her eyes sparkling with joy at the sight of the impromptu visitor.“Rosetta. Why have you come?” Megan asked with a smile, knowing well that Rosetta was supposed to be secluded with the other ladies in waiting as they went through the monthly attendance report, it was a compulsory thing in the palace, something she wished she had thought to implement in her former Kingdom. It would definitely have made things run more smoothly, but oh well. Anyways, her eyes narrowed at the breathless Rosetta. She could afford to let her slack off. If her attendance was not up to par, and she might even be taken away from her, the thought sent an unpleasant shiver through Megan's spine.“I needed to see you urgently!” Rosetta gasped o

    Aspen could not even breathe at that point. Hell, she had not been breathing for several days already, and it was beginning to get real old, but what was she to do? If she actively breathed in the corrupt air filled with fine dust, then who knew the horrible effect it would have on her skin!So she tried to take in as little air as possible through her mouth, which resulted in an incredibly grating sound, and judging by the looks on Rudolph's face, he was beginning to find her just as irritating as the dust she was trying to avoid.But as usual, Aspen could not even be bothered to give a fig about another person's feelings, in fact, she was positively glowering at him as she tried to stay as silent as possible in the holding shed the leader and his group of malnourished hunting crew had led them to.In fact, she was not at peace with the way she was leered at by some of the villagers that had stopped by to peer into the shed. They had looked at her like a tasty morsel of food they cou

    Richardson stipled his fingers as he stared out the window of his grand castle, it was rapidly approaching winter, and the air had become so easy that it was impossible to move about with just one layer of clothes, even for wolves such as them.He even had to light a roaring fire in his office, but that did not nothing to dispel his inner chill. He wondered if Megan had gotten his letter, and he wondered if he had managed to sway her. It was almost too much to ask, he knew that much, but he could not bring himself to care really. He was, as usual, only concerned with protecting his own life, his kingdom or pride be damned.And where the hell was Aspen?! He could not help but wonder, this was not to mean that he was not grateful for her absence though, truth be told, she irked him, and he could not help but wonder what was wrong with him, and what made him choose her over his beloved.In fact, it was almost like when Megan disappeared from his sight, so did his crazy and insane love a

    Megan was quiet as she stared at the bustling around her. She was quiet as Rhonda checked her baby and her vitals to ensure her stability, she was quiet as she was forced to drink a kind of medicinal broth, and she was quiet as Rhode walked in hours later.“How long has she been like this?” She heard Rhode ask, and what sounded like Rhonda answered.“I don't think she has moved at all since I came in here to personally monitor her vitals.” She answered, her professional tone broken down by concern.“What is going on? Is she alright?” Rhode asked again, a deep kind of worry coating his voice, and Megan bit her tongue to keep the bitterness inside.“Physically she's alright. So it's definitely a mental problem.” Rhonda reported again, before she turned reproachful eyes to Rhode who leaned back defensively.“What did I do?” He asked even before she could speak, and Megan heard her sigh, before she hit Rhode with what sounded like a stack of papers.“Hey!” He yelled out at the act, but th

    Ugh! Megan could not help the little frustration in her belly from bubbling out. Once more Aspen and Richardson had put her in a really sticky situation, and she was pissed off. They had successfully driven a wedge in her life again from such a distance too!“Well?” Rhode asked her, his eyes firm and steady, assuring her that he would back her up no matter what path she chooses.“Speak up. We don't have all day!” Lord Fuhler interrupted her rudely, and before Megan could condition the atmosphere, Rhode was already out of his chair and had one hand around Fuhler's throat as he pinned him to one of the pillars that scattered around the council room , and Megan sighed.Stand down.She mindlinked Rhode, but judging from the stubborn tilt of his chin, he was not planning on standing down anytime soon. She could not blame him for finally losing his composure though. It was clearly what Fuhler was after, after all.Pressing his fingers deep into the struggling Fuhler's throat, Rhode tightene

    The room instantly became quiet when the door swung open to reveal Megan standing at the entrance. She tried her best to appear brave and unafraid, but it was not an easy task.The disdainful eyes of Lord Fuhler bore down on her in supreme distaste and the cunning eyes of Lord Aldrien look at her from beneath his lashes. She noticed that Geoffrey was back and from the look on Rhode's face he was clearly not happy with it, and that made Megan furious as she vowed to get to the bottom of the problems she was seeing so clearly on the surface.“You summoned me, alpha?” She asked with a curtsy and Lord Aldrien snorted at the act as he stared at her with his beady eyes.“Oh look, her royal highness understands basic courtesy after all.” He exclaimed with a snide edge to his tone, and she could Rhode gripping his chair in anger.No! Wait! She commanded him with the mindlink and he looked at her speculatively before sighing and relaxing..“I'm sorry I barged in here last time.” She apologized

    “So, you are getting married?” Rosetta asked with incredulity and Megan chuckled, yeah she could not blame her ladies for not believing their ears. A few days before she had made a whole ass deal out of getting married and now she was accepting it? She could tell they were confused. But she was never going to go back on her Decision.“Yes Rosetta, I already answered this.” Megan laughed in faux exasperating and Rosetta shook her head in amusement.“Well, my word. What do you think, Bri?” She asked the silent Brianna, and Megan turned as well. She was also interested, Brianna had been strangely quiet and she was really worried. She hoped it was nothing serious at all. But to her relief, Brianna gave a faux sigh.“Oh nothing, I was just jealous is all.” She finally confessed, and Megan exchanged amused looks with Rosetta before turning to give her attention to Brianna.“Well jealous of what?” She asked, and Brianna sighed, and nodded at the ring on her finger, causing Megan's eyes to wi

    Moving stealthily, he gestured for Aspen to follow him and she did. They were both being careful of course. A single step on the wrong branch could alert the growling villagers that she was right there.Funny how she came to end a threat, but was instead now in a situation where she was actually in danger. She shook her head to remove the little moisture from her eyes. She could not afford to fall in fear now. She could do this. She would go home with her baby intact.“Keep up!” Rudolph snapped, his eyes already yellow, showing that he was already healing. And Aspen sighed in relief. She had no need for a weak wolf, ignoring the fact that she was the one to have put him in the position in the first place.“Alright, fine.” She snapped back, her back bent as she made sure she was concealed by the thick undergrowth of the forest.Together they traveled fast, and soon the woods around Aspen were a blur, and she turned her face to sniff the air. She could smell the smoke of the city. They
