I couldn’t sleep that night. Violet’s words kept spinning in my head, tangled with everything I thought I knew to be true. I spent most of the time sitting at the edge of the bed. Her scent clung to me, to the sheets, and that didn’t help at all.

But what did it all mean, anyway? Violet had to know that such a lie wouldn’t get her anywhere. She was far too clever to create such a senseless story.

And to risk losing her wolf on top of that? No, Violet had earned her status as my Luna, our relationship was going well; there was no reason she’d take such a high risk for a lie.

Unless… it wasn’t a lie.

If it wasn’t, she’d want me to know I’d been wrong about her, maybe even punish me by proving I’d hurt her for nothing.

But if that were really true, it would be the least of my problems. Because it wasn’t just that Violet’s parents were innocent, it meant that my mother’s real killer was… my father?

Impossible. An Alpha killing his Luna? For what reason? My parents had always had a

  • Violet's Vengeance: The Rise of The Fallen Luna   Chapter 84: You Changed Me

    Everything that followed that night was soaked in an uncomfortable silence. No one wanted to comment on, or even appear interested in, what had just happened. It was like having dinner with a pink elephant wandering among us.Rayan went to the bedroom before I did, and I followed after a few moments spent talking with Nara. As soon as I walked in, I looked for him and saw the bathroom door open. I approached and saw him leaning over the counter, his gaze lost in the mirror.For a moment, even if brief, I placed myself in his position. To discover that your own father, someone for whom you had done horrible things, someone you admired, had murdered your mother. What would my reaction have been? Would I have done the same as him? Or worse? It wasn’t easy and, as his luna, I should console him.Not only that, I think that, even if I didn’t want to admit it, I wanted to console him.I approached, sliding my hands over his chest as I embraced him from behind and pressed my lips to his ski

    I crossed the sea of people, heading toward the entrance. Guards, civilian members of the pack, everyone present seemed absorbed in hungry comments, desperate for an update. I stopped in front of the guards who were trying to calm the uproar of two older women calling for Roamur.“Where is Rayan?” I asked with authority. They quickly turned to me.“Lady Violet,” they replied, bowing. “The alpha is in a meeting in the council room.”“All right, thank you.” I declared, walking past them.“My lady, it would be best if the meeting weren’t interrupted,” one of them shouted after me, though he didn’t try to stop me. He couldn’t, afterall, touch the luna.So I paid no attention, and simply kept walking. The fortress felt empty on the inside, and I was struck by how quickly everything had unfolded. In the short interval I’d been gone, all of this had erupted. I felt a little confused about it. Rayan would have told me, wouldn’t he?I stopped at the corridor leading to the council room. Enteri

  • Violet's Vengeance: The Rise of The Fallen Luna   Chapter 82: A Shameful Lie

    There had never been a baby, there never would be, but that kind of lie was as old as time itself, and I was willing to use it. If it meant keeping Hertor by my side and turning him against my beloved enemy and husband, then so be it.And even if I lied shamelessly, there was no way for him to catch me. What would Hertor do? Confront Rayan? If he did, I’d simply tell the truth about our affair and he would take the fall too. The two of them were never going to talk about it, not when they were both hopelessly in love with me and their friendship was no longer what it once was.“What do you mean?” he asked, shock written across his face, urgency and disgust seeping into his voice.“I…” I took a deep breath, as if hesitating with fear. “Please, you can’t tell him what I’m about to say. He’ll kill me, he’ll throw me back in that place, he’ll…”I let my emotions take over, simulating the beginning of a panic attack. Hertor pulled me into his arms, holding me gently. “It’s okay, breathe, I

  • Violet's Vengeance: The Rise of The Fallen Luna   Chapter 81: Not Mine

    Violet.Rayan had been different in the past few weeks. He seemed more affectionate, with fewer outbursts. Except when we were in bed, there, he was still as wild as ever, not that I was complaining.He seemed to be trying to redeem himself, but I wasn’t going to buy that act so easily. Considering everything he’d done to me, his debt was far greater than what he could ever repay in a lifetime. Not to mention the way he’d started avoiding his father, it was clear he was angry, but had no idea what to do about it.Hertor and I had met a few times in secret, just stealing kisses and touches, without really having time to go farther. But lately, he’d been different too. It felt like he was avoiding me, though I wasn’t sure why yet. I’d find out soon enough.I had finally earned full freedom. Rayan no longer cared if I went out alone, so I didn’t always need Diana or Nara to come with me, though sometimes I preferred their company just for comfort.So it wasn’t strange that, right after

    Rayan.“No. Definitely not.” Lyndre’s voice echoed through the room, seated with his arms crossed at his place at the council table. “A war right now makes no sense. You made an agreement with them, keep it.”“Nonsense,” Orion declared, leaning against the table. “The goal has always been expansion. Ever since Roamur held the position of Alpha, the Karin have wanted full control of this region, to be the largest and most powerful pack in Romania. That hasn’t changed. It makes perfect sense to attack.”“You’re only saying that because you’ll agree with anything that pleases Roamur,” Lyndre said with a shrug. The insolence clearly didn’t sit well with the elder.“What did you just say, little boy?” Onyx growled, standing and leaning toward him with a less-than-friendly expression. “I’ve been on this council longer than you’ve been alive.”“And yet,” Lyndre replied, leaning back in his chair and drumming his fingers on the table, “we’re sitting in the same position. Ironic, don’t you thi

    Violet.I’m not sure how long I sat there, maybe an hour or two since Hertor left and until the door opened. Rayan appeared, turning on the light, and I remained seated. I didn’t need to fake the hurt written all over my face.“Hey,” he said, stopping by the door, his tone careful.I didn’t answer. I averted my gaze and went back to staring silently at the opposite wall.“I… came to let you out,” he said as he approached. “Let’s talk in our room during dinner.”Rayan extended his hand toward me, offering to help me up, but instead I stood on my own, without looking at him. I walked past him and headed for the bedroom.I didn’t speak to him when I came out of the bathroom, nor when I slipped into my black silk nightgown, nor even when we sat down to eat dinner, where the clinking of silverware was the only sound echoing between us, aside from Rayan’s frustrated sighs.Eventually, he set his cutlery down beside the plate with a deep breath. “I’m sorry, Violet.” I said nothing, didn’t e
