Kenna’s POV

“Why would he ask for her?” Elaine’s voice cut sharp through the sitting room, her eyes darting toward me like I had arranged this myself. “Jenna is home. Jenna is the rightful bride. What business could he possibly have with the substitute?”

“I don’t know,” I said honestly, because I didn’t.

My father’s jaw tightened. “Send back my message to him, I’ll speak to the man myself and find out what nonsense.”

“He won’t speak to anyone but her.” The servant was still balanced by the door

  • The Substitute Luna’s Revenge   The Pattern

    Jace’s POVI took the old reports out into the territory itself rather than trusting the paper alone to tell me the whole story.“Any crop failures out here before this season?” I asked a farmer near the eastern fields, one of the older men who’d worked this land his entire life.“Once, years back.” He scratched his jaw, remembering. “The whole section failed like this. Then the next season, healthy as anything.”“Did anyone blame someone for it? Someone specific?”“No, Alpha. Just bad luck. Happens to farmland sometimes.”That distinction stood out immediately. The same kind of disaster, and nobody had ever turned it into evidence against a person.I asked the gardeners to walk me through exactly where the dead flowers had started and how the damage spread. The pattern wasn’t random, it followed one section, sharp and deliberate, rather than fading evenly through the whole garden.“Seen something like this before,” one of the older gardeners admitted. “Smaller, years back. Same kind

  • The Substitute Luna’s Revenge   Old Cases

    Jace’s POVI found the senior healer still tending the sick pups, exhaustion carved into her face after the accusation that had erupted through the nursery.“Walk me through everything,” I said. “The first symptoms, how fast they developed, anything the affected families share.”“They were healthy before this began, Alpha. No fever, no warning signs.” She rubbed her eyes. “Different parts of the territory. Different food sources, different routines. Nothing obvious connects them.”“Has anything like this happened before? In previous years?”She thought for a long moment. “Isolated cases, actually. I remember two or three occasions over the years, pups falling ill suddenly, no clear cause. But the families recovered, and we never saw a wider pattern, so nobody investigated further.”“Why not?”“Babcock deals with ordinary illness constantly, Alpha. Once the immediate danger passed, there was no reason to dig deeper into cases that were resolved on their own.”That answer didn’t satisfy

  • The Substitute Luna’s Revenge   The Sick Pups

    Kenna’s POVThe healers were already running between the nursery and their supply rooms by the time I heard what had happened, their voices sharp with an urgency that pulled me toward the nursery before I’d fully decided to go.I knew my presence might not be welcomed. I went anyway.The sight inside stopped me for a moment, half a dozen newborns, so small and fragile, their small chests working too hard for breath, mothers hovering over cradles with the particular helplessness of people watching something they couldn’t fix.“What do you need?” I asked the head healer, already reaching for clean linens before she answered.“Blankets. Fresh water. Whatever hands we can find that know how to be gentle.” She glanced at me, exhausted, and didn’t waste time turning me away. “Same symptoms across all of them. We can’t determine the cause yet.”I stayed. I carried supplies, kept the room organized, sat beside frightened parents who needed someone to listen while they described how healthy th

  • The Substitute Luna’s Revenge   The Night She was Born

    Kenna’s POVI caught up to him in the corridor outside his chambers, his steps still hurried from whatever had passed between him and Jace.“You recognized that relic,” I said, blocking his path before he could retreat any further. “You know exactly what it is.”“Kenna, this isn’t the time”“It’s never the time.” My voice cracked louder than I intended. “I’ve spent days having dreams I can’t explain, seeing a symbol I’ve never learned but somehow drew perfectly, holding a relic that burns beneath my skin and no one else’s. Everyone around me seems to know something about my own life except me. I’m tired of it.”He didn’t answer immediately, and I pressed harder, refusing to let this become another conversation that ended in silence.“You said it responded only to certain people. You looked terrified the moment Jace told you it reacted to me. Whatever you’re hiding, I deserve to know it.”“There are reasons things were kept hidden.”“From me. Always from me.” I stepped closer. “You kno

  • The Substitute Luna’s Revenge   What Jace Sees

    Jace’s POVI found her standing rigid beside the table, staring down at something small resting between her fingers, and I knew before I fully crossed the room that whatever it was had already unsettled her badly.“Kenna.”The object flared the instant she noticed me, the symbol on its surface pulsing with a faint, unmistakable glow beneath her fingers.“Kenna, drop it…”She already had, her hand snapping back like the metal had burned her. The glow faded almost the moment it left her grip.“It’s done that twice now,” she said, breathing hard. “This is the second time.”I studied the relic from where it lay on the table, careful not to touch it myself just yet. The marking matched exactly what I had found in the archives, the same crescent tied to Moberly’s history, the same shape her own hand had drawn without conscious memory.“Tell me what happened when you touched it.”She described it slowly, still shaken. A settlement under attack. Warriors, fire, people running through streets

  • The Substitute Luna’s Revenge   The Relic

    Kenna’s POVI turned the object over and over in my palm, hoping some angle of it might explain how it had ended up hidden in my own drawer.The marking stared back at me no matter which way I held it, the same crescent, the same broken circle, the same jagged lines that had haunted every dream since the night I’d first seen that burning settlement. I searched my memory for any moment I might have encountered before. Nothing surfaced. And yet holding it felt disturbingly familiar, like my palm already knew the exact shape and weight of it before my mind caught up.“This isn’t decoration,” I whispered to the empty room, tracing the marking with one finger. It was too deliberate for that. Too precise. Whoever carved this had meant it to identify something, or someone.I thought about carrying it straight to Jace. I even reached for my cloak before stopping myself. What would I say — that I’d found an unexplained relic bearing the exact symbol from my dreams, hidden among my private bel
