Semua Bab LUNA'S SECRET: Bab 51 - Bab 60

RONA'S POVOlivia got angry, but quickly masked it with a pitiful expression. “Uncle, please. Just give it to me.”“I already said no. Don't make me lose my appetite.” Richard replied, not hiding his anger. Olivia hits her hands against the table, making me jump. I was not the only one startled, many others were. “Uncle!” Olivia whined, dragging her word out like a spoiled brat throwing a tantrum. “But you already commissioned the moon stone to be fashioned into jewelry. It's just giving it to me earlier. After all, who else in this world deserves something so precious except me?” She whispered and batted her lashes at him. Richard gasped in exasperation on hearing her words, his face glowering. “I must have spoiled you too much to make you so narcissistic. How dare you make stupid demands of me? If I say no, it means no. Pouting and throwing a tantrum won't help your case on this issue. Give up already. You truly deserve everything good in the world, but not this.”“Uncle, stop

RONA'S POVThe moment I entered my room, I quickly locked the door and collapsed on my bed, shivering with sweat all over my body. Why was this happening more and more often? My wolf even flared up before everyone around. Letting my aura seep out would get me killed instantly. No, this won't do. I need to kill Richard immediately before my cover is blown. That's right, quickly taking revenge and escaping from this hellhole before they realize it is the only way I can stay safe. The pain suddenly multiplied without warning, making me scream out. “Stop thinking about murder. The more you think about killing him, the more your wolf's murderous intent amplifies, making it easier to kill you. You have to smile, make efforts to be content and happy if you wish to survive. At all times, you must think about him with love to avoid the wolf getting the upper hand by taking advantage of the bitterness in your heart.” The strange voice came again, the same time I felt the ice jade pendant giv

RONA'S POVI finally summoned the courage to practice the technique since the emperor would be gone for a few days, alongside most of his very powerful men. So it wouldn't be that easy for someone to sense my aura. I was in a secret garden, not one of the emperor's forbidden sites, but one of his secret gardens leading to a dungeon used to keep truly terrifying criminals. No one has been here in ages, so it was the perfect hiding spot. For at least five years now, that particular dungeon has been empty because no one dared to commit such kinds of heinous crimes that could deserve being locked in the underground prison yard. I was especially crafty, going out the first day Richard left, while pretending I was going for a stroll, using the opportunity to discover many short cuts back to the emperor's palace which I could use in the case of an emergency. I even found two side doors used by the servants to enter the emperor's palace. This was the best time to practice, since Richard was

The first person I thought about after hearing the description was none other than Erica, our good little girl warming the wolf emperor’s bed—his little darling. But she hadn't shifted yet, how could she be so powerful, powerful enough to kill Alex in one strike. “Seal the imperial city.”“Already done.” One of the men whispered“This cut wasn't made by someone inexperienced, it looked like a clean cut from a warrior who is not only well versed in fighting in wolf form, but also with a weapon.” I whispered, checking the wound on his neck. The men’s expressions were heavy, making it obvious how upset today’s shock had made them. I took a deep breath and turned to my assistant who had been silently standing to the side all along, motioning him to come closer.“Check the official records, the identification records at the entry points, and records for foreign mates. I need you to make a comprehensive list of all the women who joined the imperial city in the last six months, the imperi

LORD LIAM'S POVI got down from my horse in front of the emperor's palace where Micha was waiting with his men. Just then, I saw Olivia walking towards us with the fifteen soldiers made up of the private guards the emperor bestowed to her. “What's your findings?” He shook his head slowly. “According to the stylist, they have never given the princess that particular coat. It could be from the stock she came to the palace with, if she's truly the culprit.”Olivia arrived and stood beside me. “Lord Liam.” She greeted me and curtseyied elegantly. I barely stopped myself from frowning and crinkling my nose. When did Olivia become so well mannered and respectful? She seemed to be in a good mood today, too excited and happy. Of course, she should be. She had never made her hatred for Erica a secret, always seeing her as some rival. She must be delighted to hear about her being the suspect for the murder of a higher ranking soldier. I may not like Erica, but I detest her even more. Arrog
