The THORN LUNA Chapter Thirty Three
Emily's POV I shivered, my eyes gleaming with tears as I watched him and the others being led by the werewolves. I wanted to go to him right away, but I was bound.Fayne's eyes met mine and my lips parted. Fayne slightly shook his head as though pleading with me not to acknowledge him.“Boss, they're here. We captured the queen too.”Jones stepped out with a knife in his hand. He tossed it in front of the queen.“Queen of the human empire, how lovely to see you in this state… Not!” Jones mocked.The queen clenched her fists. “You monsters! You killed the ruler of the human village. Do you think no one will ever put a stop to your schemes?!” She yelled causing Jones to laugh loudly.“Queen of the human empire, What do you choose?”“I'd rather die.”Jones nodded, “Then do it!”The queen snatched the knife from the ground and brought it to her neck.“As long as the king is dead, I'm not willing to live anymore.”Fayne shook his head, “No, my queen.”Before Fayne could drop her, the que

Emily's POV That evening, I realized where we were heading and it made goosebumps travel down my spine. We were right back where I started, Donovan pack. One of Jones' men walked up to him.“Leader, we're about to reach Donovan pack. Do we take a rest here or go to Donovan pack?”“We should go there right now. By nightfall we should arrive there.” Jones said and he nodded. “Yes sir!”We continued walking and we were nearly there when Fayne suddenly collapsed.“Oh no,” I gasped.Jones halted his horse and one of his men went to check on Fayne.“He's alive but he seems too weak to continue,” “Leave him there then. I don't want a useless human for a slave.”They were about to keep going but I raised my hand up for the first time.Jones' gaze traveled to me and he gave me a disgusted look.“Who are you?”“My name is Emily,” I said. “This man… I'll help him continue the journey until we arrive at your destination.”Jones scoffed.“Do whatever you want.” Jones glared at one of his men

Emily's POV “Let go of her!” Fayne yelled as he made to release me from the grip of my father but my father pushed him back with one hand and Fayne slammed his head against the wall, blood instantly gushing out from the back of his head.“Fayne!” I yelled.Fayne hurriedly got back up to his feet but I shook my head at him, urging him to not go any further.I turned back to my father. “Dad, what are you doing here?”He scoffed. “What else do you think I'm going to do? Of course it's to bring you back home. After so many years, it's about time you understood your roots.”Tears rolled down my cheeks which I quickly wiped away.“Have you finally learnt your lesson?” Father asked me and I bowed my head in shame.“Father, I have no idea what to tell you.”“You don't have to say anything, just follow my lead and come with me.”I turned back to Fayne and he looked at me without saying a word. I guessed he understood the message that he was weak compared to my father. Also, it probably dawned

Emily's POV “Emily,” he said as he settled down on the chair.“Father,” I said, my voice soft. “Are you doing well?”“Yes um—”“—Where did you go?” I cut him short and he cleared his throat.“It's no big deal, eat up. You'll need the energy.”I cleared my throat.“Well If you don't want to say something, that's also okay.” My father gave me a nod and I proceeded to eat with my father in silence. However, it became real uncomfortable for me.“Father,” I said softly. “Emily, how was your life as a slave?” He asked me out of blue which made me look up at him confusedly.“Father, what do you mean?”“Did you not learn a thing about how to speak and when to not speak?”My father's words felt degrading and it made me lose my appetite. I placed down the fork I was using to eat and ran my fingers through my hair.“I'm retiring to my room dad, if you don't want to talk to me concerning something, then don't.” I stood to my feet and walked to my room. My father didn't even call for me and tha

Emily's POV “Oh my, Emily. Just because I brought you back doesn't mean I truly care for you as a daughter.”My father's words hit me hard in the chest but I pretended it didn't.“Father, when I was missing, didn't you miss me a little bit?”“I only had one regret. Not marrying you off sooner.”I clenched my fists tightly. My own father didn't really care about me.I smiled painfully. I should've known that long ago. What was I expecting?“Thank you father,” I said, and my father's eyes widened in confusion. He probably didn't expect what I said to him.“For what?” He asked.“For freeing me as a slave and Fayne too…”My father closed the distance between us. “This Fayne guy… You know better than to cross the line with him, right, Emily?”I nodded. “I see Fayne as nothing but a slave I can use to pass time when I'm bored at my soon-to-be husband's house.”“I truly hope it's nothing more than that.” My father said.After a few minutes of him staring at me, he sighed. “Go now, Emily.

Emily's POV “Yes,” I answered.“Good, you can get going.”“No, I'm going to go to the Galahad clan as a bride.” I said.Matteo's eyes widened. “You can't be serious,” he said.“No I am pretty serious.” I said and Matteo clenched his fists.“Do you not know that the werewolves who attacked are Jacob Galahad’s men? If he has the desire to kill you, what more would he do to you when you're under his thumb?” Matteo asked me.“You never really cared for me, Matteo, stop pretending like you do. I'm going to the Galahad clan and I'm going to make a difference.” I said which made Matteo frown.“Well, it's your decision. Don't come crying to me when your plans don't work out. Don't forget, Jacob Galahad intended to kill you and he'll do worse when you're in his clan.”I looked at my rider who was dead on the ground. He had tried to protect me and that didn't work out well for him. It made my heart ache a little.Matteo looked at Fayne and then turned to me.“Who is he?”“My slave.” I said.Ma

Emily's POV I saw a group of security men. They were hefty and looked strong.“Ms. Emily Silver?” The tall one with short black hair asked. He was wearing nice clothes and boots. He was probably high up in the hierarchy.“Yes, that's me.” I responded. “My master asked me to take you inside as soon as possible.”“Who is your master?” I asked.“Jacob Galahad,” he responded.“I see.”“Who's… this?” He asked me, pointing to Fayne who stood solidly beside me.I took a step forward. “He's my slave. He goes with me wherever I go.”The security man cleared his throat.“My name is Simon, I work for Jacob Galahad.”“I see.” I said with a smirk.Simon gestured me into the gate. “Please come with me.”“I would go in with you but first, wouldn't you like to apologize for leaving me outside for so long?”Simon cleared his throat. “Well… I didn't expect that you would arrive so late. We thought you'd changed your mind.”I sneered. “Aren't you curious as to why I arrived so late? Or is it none of y

Emily's POV I didn't know how long I stayed in the room, all I knew was that throughout the night, my tears poured down. It wasn't untill the morning that I heard a knock on the door.I wiped my face and went to open the door. Behold, it was Fayne. And he was holding a tray containing food.“W-what are you doing here?” I asked, feeling a bit embarrassed that I could be seen like this by him.“I asked the maids if you've eaten but none seemed to care. I guess since you're here, I'll have to be the one to tend to you.”I frowned. “So my husband doesn't really care about me,” I said.“Shh,” Fayne placed a finger on my lips, silencing me. “They'll hear,” he whispered.I let out a silent sigh. So he knew that the werewolves had super hearing. I wondered how he was getting a hand of this when clearly a lot was going on. And he was human, shouldn't he be more fearful and mad at me that I didn't tell him who I really was… or what I really was.“Come in,” I gestured him to come in.Then I re

Emily's POV The table was simple tonight — fresh bread, grilled meat, and platters of fruits and cheeses. No servants, no formalities. Just us.Fayne poured drinks while I set out the plates, and before long, laughter began to fill the air — the natural, effortless kind that only comes from people who know each other too well. "You’re heavy-handed with the wine, old man," Kael teased, raising his cup at Fayne.Fayne gave him a mock glare. "I’m making up for all the times I had to deal with your troublemaking.""Ah," Aerlyn smirked over the rim of her glass, "he means the time you tried to tame a wyvern in your second year of training."Kael groaned. "I will *never* live that down.""You were brave," I said, unable to hide a chuckle, "but extremely foolish.""And slightly singed," Fayne added, lifting his cup toward Kael with a wink. "To Kael, the bravest fool we know."We all laughed and raised our glasses together, the clinking sound ringing through the open air.The conversation

Emily's POV The days that followed were spun from sunlight and laughter.After breakfast one morning, Fayne clapped his hands together and grinned wickedly. “Time for a family sparring match,” he announced, eyes gleaming. “No backing out!”Aerlyn immediately brightened, already stretching her arms behind her head. “I’m in.”Kael gave a loud, theatrical groan. “Do I have to? I almost died last time!”“You stubbed your toe last time,” I said dryly, sipping my tea. “Hardly a near-death experience.”Still, when we gathered outside in the practice yard, Kael bounced on his toes with nervous excitement. The sun was high, the breeze carried the scent of wildflowers, and the whole pack seemed to watch from the edges, smiling at the scene unfolding.We split into teams — Fayne and Kael against Aerlyn and me."Unfair," Kael complained immediately. "Mother and Aerlyn are terrifying!""You wound me," I said with a grin, circling him slowly. "But I’ll take it as a compliment."The match began w
The THORN LUNA Chapter One Hundred and Seventy Six
Emily's POV The days that followed felt golden.The castle, often a place of endless decisions and strategy, settled into a rhythm that was almost domestic. It wasn’t that there weren’t matters to attend to — of course there were. Packs still needed watching, alliances still needed tending. But the urgency that had once ruled every breath was gone, replaced by something warmer, deeper.Trust.Aerlyn spent her mornings training patrol groups, her voice sharp and sure as she called out orders in the training fields. She was growing into her power in a way that made my heart ache with pride. Some mornings I would watch her from the balcony, sipping tea while the wind carried her laughter up to me.Kael had thrown himself into studying — a surprise to all of us. He was determined to master governance, battle strategies, herbal remedies, everything he could get his hands on. It was as if, after the talk about leadership, he had decided to prove he was ready for more.Sometimes, I would fi

Emily's POV “We’re not as young as we used to be,” I murmured, feeling the ache in my bones with a smirk.“But we’re better,” he said. “We know when to stop fighting the world.”I turned toward him, resting my head on his shoulder. “This is what we fought for.”He didn’t answer with words, just pressed a kiss to my forehead.Eventually, reluctantly, we returned home.As we rode into the castle gates, our cloaks damp and hair wild, the guards blinked at us like we were forest spirits returning from myth. We waved them off before they could ask questions, and made our way back to our private quarters, still grinning like fools.We’d barely stepped out of the bathing chamber when there was a knock at the door. This time, it wasn’t a guard. I knew the rhythm.“Come in,” I called, already smiling.Aerlyn entered first, her braids freshly redone, her uniform pristine. Behind her, Kael followed, taller than before, but still hiding part of his face behind his curls when he felt uncertain.“

Emily's POV “Was hoping you'd think I was unconscious,” he mumbled into my hair. “So you wouldn’t make me move.” I laughed softly and turned toward him, our legs tangling naturally. He looked younger in the morning light, softer. As if the weight of his past had stepped back, if only for a few hours. I brushed my fingers across his brow, smoothing back a strand of hair that had fallen in his eyes. “I don’t want to move either,” I whispered. “Then don’t,” he said, pulling me closer. “We’ve earned one morning.” It was a strange thing—stillness. Foreign, almost. Our love had bloomed in war, grown through hardship, deepened through leadership. Most days, it felt like we were always on the edge of something: a threat, a decision, a moment too big to breathe through. But today… Today, we were just Emily and Fayne. Not Alpha. Not demon. Not legend. Just two people who had made it through the storm and still chose each other. He kissed the top of my head. “Still thinking about Kael?”

Emily's POV The echo of my children’s voices still lingered in the corridor even after I walked away. Something had changed—subtly, but powerfully. Kael and Aerlyn had finally found a rhythm, however fragile. That mattered more than any council, any throne. I drifted into the quiet of our chambers, the familiar warmth of it greeting me like a gentle tide. Fayne stood near the window, bathed in moonlight, his arms crossed as he stared into the distance like he always did when his mind wandered too far. He turned when he heard me, and his crooked smile instantly softened everything in me. “They’ll be alright,” I said, sinking into the edge of the couch. He raised a brow. “Kael didn’t burn down anything?” “Not today,” I teased. Fayne chuckled and walked over. “Then we’ll call that a win.” There was silence for a beat, one that didn’t demand to be filled. We were getting good at this kind of peace—the quiet between the wild. The world outside always turned, but we had carved out

Emily's POV I nodded. “Exactly. A joint council. One that unites the packs and keeps decisions balanced. Aerlyn will lead the Galahad and Red Cross packs, yes. Kael will govern Donovan when the time comes. But their power won't lie in their territories. It’ll lie in their ability to come together for decisions that affect all of us.”“Smart,” Fayne admitted, brushing a hand across my shoulder. “Give them shared stakes so there’s less room for rivalry.”“And more room for respect,” I added. “We’ll train them to make decisions together. Mediate conflicts. See each other as equals, even when their paths differ. We’ll show Kael that his role isn’t smaller, just different. He’ll grow into a protector, a strategist, a voice for the more volatile edges of the packs.”Fayne gave a small smile. “That sounds like you’ve been planning this for years.”“I have.” I turned toward him fully, letting the weight of my thoughts settle. “Because I know what it’s like to be raised in a world that pits s

Emily's POV The sun had dipped low, brushing golden light across the glass windows as I stood at the edge of the balcony, overlooking Galahad’s inner gardens. The breeze was gentle, tugging at the silk of my robe, and in the distance, I could hear laughter—Aerlyn training the younger wolves again, just as she always did.Behind me, I heard Fayne’s footsteps, quiet but heavy with thought. He came to stand beside me, his arms folded, gaze cast out toward the horizon. For a moment, we stood in silence, listening to the world we had carved out together. The peace we had fought for. Bled for.I sighed. “We have a family.”Fayne looked at me, his expression softening.“There were nights,” I continued, voice low, “when I didn’t think that would ever be our truth. That we’d ever survive long enough to see it. But now we have two children. A daughter who's strong enough to lead, and a son with a heart that's still learning to shape itself.”His hand slid gently over mine, warm and grounding.

Aerlyn’s POV I sat at the edge of the long stone table, the parchment map spread before us rippling with age and memory. Every scar on its surface marked a past battle, a lesson etched in ink and blood. Now it was my turn to leave a mark.Alpha Dante from the southern border was mid-sentence, proposing a joint patrol with his fastest wolves. Normally, I would’ve deferred to my mother—but today, I leaned forward.“That route won’t hold,” I said, surprising even myself with how calm my voice was. “The rogue movements I tracked followed wind pockets and low paths. They’re avoiding open terrain. We’d be leaving our flank exposed.”The room went still. A few of the elders exchanged glances. One even scoffed under his breath. But my mother said nothing. She didn’t have to. Her silence was her faith in me.Dante grunted, pointing at a different section of the map. “Then you suggest we close in here?”I nodded. “And reroute the scouts to this ridge. It’s narrow but provides full visibility.
