All Chapters of Rejected to be His Luna: Chapter 271 - Chapter 280

[Zeve’s POV]Somewhere or the other, I sensed Derek’s involvement in whatever was going on. Even if Hikari denied it was Derek’s doing, I knew he ignited this fire. I wasn’t overestimating Derek; I was just making sure to not underestimate him.Amor’s hands were tied. If Hikari rebelled, as the alpha of the pack, he would step on the battlefield to protect his pack, his crown, and me. Hikari wanted to make me his luna by taking Amor’s place in the pack. At a certain point I even blamed myself for what was happening, but then Ria talked me through that phase. But over all, if we see, Hikari was taking all the decisions emotionally. His love for Mayu was propelling him towards his revenge that he could get only by massacring all the rogues in the Aurora pack and destroying Zahir completely. Meanwhile, his love for me was strengthening his advancement towards the alpha’s throne.Hikari’s emotions were definitely being manipulated. And manipulation did not always need dark mana to work.

[Unknown POV]Darkness is an element, and it forges only a handful of souls.There are souls made up of light, and souls made up of a mixture of light and dark, good and evil. There are abundant of them in this world.Where there is light, there will be shadows, but shadows are everywhere. There is nothing in this world that doesn’t have a shadow. Technically speaking, this world exists in darkness. Light is just an imagination created by God to play chess with millions of pawns.People say whenever you are lost, seek the light. Light at the end of the tunnel, but I have a different approach to this. When you are lost, seek darkness. Stop at the entrance of the tunnel and drown yourself in the abyss dark and deep — silent and sweet.Light is the cause of all evil in this world.Light was the cause of all the pain in my world. Just imagine a world of pure darkness where colour doesn’t matter and faces — fake or real — remain hidden.Where darkness is respected and worshipped, where lig

[Killian’s POV]***TRIGGER WARNING: Torture/harmful acts (not graphic)***...“What I did, what I am doing and what I’ll do is for the greater good of this world and to achieve big goals, we have to make big sacrifices. None of their lives have gone in vain. All their sacrifices are the building block of a perfect dark utopia where light will have no place and all of us can live in peace and love,” I said.“Then this…” she pointed towards my mother. “... this is the necessary sacrifice I need to make to create a world without you and to put an end to you and your perpetual night.”“Fools like you can never understand my vision,” I said.“It’s a shame that a genius like you also does not understand a fool’s vision,” she said.“The moment I break out of this cage, you are over, Damen’s daughter.”“I know. And you think I haven’t prepared myself to die? I had prepared myself for death the moment I set out my foot from the Enver pack. But you can’t get out of this small cage I have crea

[Zeve’s POV]Killian had broken out of the cage.Vance and the knights who were guarding him were all lying unconscious on the ground. I checked Vance’s pulses. He was still breathing. They just passed out from the impact.“How was he able to break our resistance barrier? We worked so hard to create it…” Aria said, examining the broken pieces of the cage. “Simple, Aria. To break that cage, Killian had to emit dark energy beyond the resisting power of the spells we used to create that cage. I can’t even imagine the amount of dark energy he used to break this cage. No wonder we felt the tremors.”I mind-linked Lucella and asked her to send the medical help for them.“What should we do now, leader?” Aria asked.“Breaking this cage would have taken a toll on his body. He is weak right now, we can cage him again…” I said.I activated my butterflies all around the palace. Soon they found him. But…Celeste stood impassively in his way that led to Venus’ room. Maybe he wasn’t able to telepor

[Zeve’s POV] The full moon’s light became fainter and fainter until there was no moon in the sky. The voice said it was her last ounce of power she used to stop the dark gravity. Did that mean this world would not have moonlight anymore? The messengers of death, ravens and owls were sitting all over the ruins of the Aura palace. They mourned the death while we were looking for the remnants of the dead. Bodies had turned into dust and we could only make out that the pile of dust was once a person by the pattern it was lying on the ground as if a person had been buried under black sand. There was no skin, flesh, blood, or bone. Just dust of the dead and its daunting odour in the air. The hallways that once beamed with life, gossips and giggles had turned lifeless. We were looking for survivors even though we knew there might be none. Morfan and Hikari were looking at the conditions of places beyond the palace. Amor was walking ahead of me. Mother was walking beside me. She took e
