Chapter 5

Author: TJ
The recordings were my final farewell to the mortal realm.

By the time they caused an uproar across the Kingdom, I had already returned to Heaven.

I was no longer Cassian’s hidden Luna. I was Seraphina, the Keeper of the Dawn.

My chambers in the Celestial Palace had remained untouched during my disappearance. Beyond the balcony stretched an endless sea of clouds, illuminated by the first light of every sunrise.

For the first few weeks, I spoke to almost no one.

My wings had healed, but after thr

  • When His Angel Luna Returned to Heaven   Chapter 8

    I looked at Cassian.“I want this to be over.”“What happened between us mattered to me once,” I said. “But it ended at Moonmere Lake. You are not the life I want anymore.”“Is there truly nothing I can do?”“Don’t make me destroy every good memory I still have just to prove that I’m done.”He flinched. For a long moment, neither of us spoke.Then Cassian nodded. “All right.”The word seemed to cost him everything.“Then I will leave.”For a moment, I saw the man who had carried me out of the vampire’s fortress three years ago.Perhaps some part of his tenderness had been real.He stepped back. “I’m sorry, Seraphina. For all of it.”Then he turned and walked toward the celestial gates.He did not look back.Aurelius waited until Cassian had disappeared before approaching me. He had already calmed Lucien and made certain none of the young angels were hurt.“Are you all right?” he asked.I nodded. “I will be.”He did not ask me to explain what I was feeling. He simply remained beside me w

    “I never said I wasn’t.”For three years, Evelyne had looked down on me as a powerless Omega who owed everything to Cassian.Now she stared at me as though she had never seen me before.Aurelius motioned to the guards. “Escort her from the festival.”Panic flashed across Evelyne’s face. “No! You can’t do this. I was invited.”“You ceased to be a guest the moment you attacked a member of Heaven’s royal family.”The guards closed around her. Evelyne twisted toward me, her fear giving way to rage.“You think you’ve won?” she screamed. “You can dress yourself in silk and call yourself the Keeper of the Dawn, but Cassian still chose you only because he needed you to save me.”“And I no longer care why he chose me.”Before the guards could remove her, a commotion broke out near the entrance.“Seraphina!” The familiar voice cut through the ceremonial hall.My body went rigid. Cassian stood beneath the celestial archway.His face was drawn, and the man who had once carried himself like an unto

    Not long afterward, I heard that Cassian had abdicated the Lycan throne.He had handed the crown and entered the Moon Temple as a penitent, hoping its priests could help him reopen the celestial gate.I felt neither satisfaction nor resentment. Perhaps his regret was real.?But it had come too late.“Your Highness!”?Lucien’s voice pulled me from my thoughts.Aurelius entered behind him, carrying a silver scroll sealed with the emblem of the Celestial Council.“The Festival of First Light will be held next month,” Aurelius said. “The gates of Heaven will open to guests from every realm.”I broke the seal.Angels, Lycans, vampires, witches, and other mortal races had all been invited to attend.My fingers paused over the final line. The council had selected one of my dawnstone lanterns to illuminate the festival.“They have chose my work,” I said.“I recommended it. The Keeper of the Dawn should be the one to welcome the first light.”If the gates were opening to every realm, the Lycan co

    The recordings were my final farewell to the mortal realm.By the time they caused an uproar across the Kingdom, I had already returned to Heaven.I was no longer Cassian’s hidden Luna. I was Seraphina, the Keeper of the Dawn.My chambers in the Celestial Palace had remained untouched during my disappearance. Beyond the balcony stretched an endless sea of clouds, illuminated by the first light of every sunrise.For the first few weeks, I spoke to almost no one.My wings had healed, but after three years on the ground, I had forgotten how to use them. When I grew stronger, I resumed my duties at the Temple of Dawn.As Keeper of the Dawn, I shaped dawnstone into sacred vessels capable of carrying celestial light. I also began teaching the youngest angels how to carve their first stars and moons.Once, I had dreamed of presenting my work before the court. I had wanted them to see that their Lycan’s strange, wolfless Luna was capable of creating something beautiful.Now the lanterns I cre

    Cassian stared at the guard.“That’s impossible,” he said hoarsely. “We made plans. Her birthday is today. Why would she jump into the lake?”“According to the captain, Lady Seraphina boarded the yacht alone,” the guard replied. “She waited for you all night. Just before sunrise, she left her phone and cloak on the deck, then stepped over the railing.”“No.” Cassian’s voice rose. “Why didn’t anyone call me?”“We did, many times. But your phone was switched off.”Cassian pulled out the phone. The screen had gone black.He then turned to Evelyne. “Did you turn it off?”Evelyne stiffened.“Of course not. You must have done it by accident, or perhaps the battery died.” Her eyes filled with hurt. “Cassian, you can’t possibly blame me for this.”He said nothing. Then he strode out of the room.By the time Cassian reached Moonmere Lake, the yacht had returned to the marina.Royal guards surrounded the dock while priests from the Moon Temple examined the silver light lingering above the water.

    On the drive back from the temple, Cassian started talking about my birthday and the Marking Ceremony.“Everything is ready,” he said. “Once we seal our vows before the Moon Goddess, we can finally start planning our future.”He took my hand.“Then we can start trying for a pup. You’ve always wanted one.”I looked out the window without answering.By this time tomorrow, the ceremony would have bound my celestial light to the mortal realm forever. That was what Cassian truly wanted.The car had barely left the temple when his phone rang.Cassian glanced at the screen and frowned before answering.A woman’s panicked voice filled the car.“Your Majesty, Lady Evelyne collapsed again. She’s coughing up blood, and the healer can’t stop it.”Cassian’s hand tightened around the phone.He looked at me. “Seraphina, I—”“You should go.”“I promised to take you sailing.”“I’ll go ahead and wait for you at the marina.”He hesitated. “I won’t be long.”He kissed my forehead, then asked the driver t
