The kitchen finally went silent. After hours of chopping, scrubbing, and running back and forth, the rattling of plates and the sharp voices of the older women faded behind me as I climbed the narrow stairs. My legs felt like stones. My palms still stung from scalding water, and sweat clung to my skin like a second layer of dirt.

When I reached my room, I shut the door quickly and pressed my back against it, breathing in relief. My room was small, barely large enough for a bed and a wooden chest, but it was mine. My little cage. I hated it, but at the same time, it was the only place where I could pretend to be safe. Here, no one looked at me with disgust. Here, no one shouted at me to move faster.

I dragged my shirt over my head and threw it into the basket, wrinkling my nose. The smell was unbearable sweat and kitchen smoke. I shuffled into the bathroom, barely able to keep my eyes open.

The moment I turned the faucet, water poured into the tub, filling the room with a soft sound th

  • The luna’s misery   Chapter 65

    JackMorning came faster than I wanted.The light slipped into the room in a soft gold line across the floor, touching the edge of the bed. I didn’t even move at first. I just lay there and breathed in the scent beside me, warm, soft, sweet… my mate.Nora.She was curled up, her hair scattered on the pillow, her lips slightly parted. She slept like someone who had fought the whole world and finally found a place to rest. And somehow… I felt both proud and guilty as I looked at her.I sat up slowly, pushing the sheets aside, but my eyes never left her.She was so beautiful.Too beautiful.Sometimes it scared me how much I wanted to protect her, hold her, kiss her, keep her close, and at the same time… how much distance I forced between us. It didn’t feel fair. It didn’t feel right. But I kept doing it because I was trying to protect her from things she didn’t understand yet.But the truth?Every time I pulled away from her… a part of me tore inside.Alvin, my wolf, hated it more than m

    The first thing that hit me was the sharp sting of sunlight slashing through the curtains. It stabbed my eyes the moment I forced them open. My head throbbed so badly that it felt like someone was hammering inside my skull. My body? Sore everywhere. My shoulders, my legs, even my fingers felt weak.I groaned and rolled onto my side, hugging the blanket closer. That was when something… strange drifted into my nose. Not the usual scent of my lavender room… no.This was different.A thick, masculine scent of cologne mixed with something herbal. Something deep. Something that didn’t belong in my room at all.I froze.My heart skipped.Slowly, I forced myself to sit up.My eyelashes fluttered as I looked around.The room I was in……was not mine.The walls were a rich cream color with golden patterns touching the edges. A chandelier hung above like something from a royal palace. The bed I was sitting on was larger than mine, so soft that I almost sank into it. And the sheets smelled nothing

    “Girl, it’s already time. Why are you not dressed up yet?” Lara’s voice rang out as she barged into my room like a whirlwind.I groaned and buried my face into the pillow. I must have drifted off right after she left. My body felt like a sack of stones. My eyes were swollen from lack of sleep, and my mind raced with thoughts I couldn’t control.I wanted to rest just a little more, but the weight in my chest was too heavy to ignore.“I told you, I need sleep. I’m tired,” I muttered, frowning. My voice sounded weak, even to my own ears.Lara rolled her eyes dramatically. “No way. Not now. Stand up and use the bathroom immediately. It’s almost 7 p.m.” She plopped down on the couch with her arms folded.“7 p.m.?” I screamed, eyes snapping open. “You’re joking!”“Yes, Princess Nora,” she teased, sticking her tongue out.I threw the blanket aside. “That’s too much. I slept off this morning!”Lara laughed, “Exactly. You’ve been snoring since breakfast. I could hear you from the hallway!”I h

    The sound of birds and the faint murmuring of wolves woke me from sleep.Their howls rolled softly across the distance, mixing with the whisper of wind that slipped through my window. It was morning already.I turned my head and squinted at the wall clock, just past seven. Today wasn’t meant for training. The pack would be busy preparing for the Alpha’s homecoming. Everyone had been waiting for it like some kind of festival.My eyes still felt heavy. My head ached, and every bone in my body was sore, like I had wrestled with shadows all night. I barely slept.All I could see, even with my eyes closed, was that dream.That dream wouldn’t leave me.I rubbed my temple, trying to chase away the dull throb in my skull. The images were faint, yet sharp enough to make my heart shiver, the gray sky, the dying field, the crying pup, and the smell of fire and blood.I knew it wasn’t just a dream. It felt too real. Too close. Like something that had happened before or something waiting to happen

    Closing the door behind me, I leaned my back against it and just stood there, breathing, fighting not to scream. My chest rose and fell fast, like air suddenly became too heavy to breathe in this room. It felt like I was carrying stones in my lungs and fire in my veins.I didn’t even realize when my hand slid to my chest, right over my heart, like pressing there could calm the strange, painful pull I had felt all day. The bond… the stupid mate bond. It was like someone kept pulling a thread tied deep inside me. Tug. Pull. Twist.And every time it pulled, it hurt more.I was tired. Physically tired. Mentally tired. Emotionally exhausted. Today felt like a battle I didn’t prepare for… and honestly? I didn’t even know what I was fighting.From the inner pain dragging through the bond, to dragging over ten shopping bags around town like a lost maid… I was at my breaking point.Truth is, after my grounding ended—after being stuck inside for seven whole days—I thought freedom would feel swe

    The salon was like a dream.Bright lights. Warm sweet smell of shampoo and hair oils. Golden mirrors lined the wall, and everywhere looked soft, classy and perfect. The chairs were shiny black leather, and white flowers sat neatly in glass vases. It felt like stepping into another world.So clean… so soft… so girly…Even Limene paused in my head.“Wow… fancy,” she murmured.“Yea,” I whispered back to her. “Very fancy.”“Good evening ma’am, you are welcome to Juli Empire,” one lady said the moment we entered. She gave a sweet smile and bowed her head small.“Thank you,” I replied, still turning my head everywhere, trying to take everything in. The light reflected off the mirrors and made the salon glow like magic. Even the floor smelled like roses mixed with fresh water.“How are you doing, Mrs. Lily?” Lara asked in her confident voice like somebody that owned the place. So she knew them already. No wonder she walked in like she was a princess coming home.“I’m good, and it’s nice to s
