All Chapters of LUNA'S SECRET: Chapter 81 - Chapter 90

Rona’s POVI kept caressing the tiger figurine with a frown on my face. Something didn't feel right. Olivia was way too calm and composed. The Olivia today was not the one I knew, she must have had a motive which I have not been able to figure out. But apart from her initial petty efforts to make me stand outside, she hadn't done anything outrageous. She also drank from the same tea pot. What the hell could she be plotting? Could she be planning to set me up? But I carefully checked myself before we left, to ensure she didn't slip in anything incriminating into my clothes. Gosh! This was driving me crazy. The vicious and hot headed Olivia was easier to deal with. “Princess, are you alright?” Annalise whispered, looking at me from the window of my carriage. I turned to her with a frown on my face. “Don't you think Olivia was acting strange? What could she be plotting?”Annalise shrugged carelessly, casually dismissing my concerns. “Who knows? Maybe, she has seen that the emperor

RONA'S POVI opened my eyes after Richard left, my eyes a cold shade of green. My heart felt dead inside, and I was just numb. I couldn't think or hear anything, except for voices that drifted into my mind while I was asleep. In the end, Olivia still pulled a fast one on me. Even though Richard wouldn't let her off, I felt bitter. Worse, Liam was back, stronger than ever. And he was still suspicious of me. Staying here had become impossible. I must leave. Otherwise, I would have no means of survival. I was exhausted down to my bones, but perhaps this was my chance to leave the palace and never look back. Since I was wavering in my decision to end Richard and would probably never get the opportunity, there was no use of sticking around. I should just go before I got discovered. I was already tired of fighting. I might have defeated Olivia this time after losing my precious child, but who knew the next enemy that might show up. My hand went to my belly and tears gathered in my eyes.

RONA'S POVI opened my eyes to see myself in an unfamiliar environment. The only reason I didn't flip out was that Richard was right beside me. I guess my escape fell through. They were his people after all. Of course they sold me out and tipped him off. It would be even harder to leave here from now on with the increased security. I looked at Richard's face, he seemed more exhausted than I was. And he was holding my hand even while sleeping. Why wasn't I offended because he held me back? Deep down, was I hoping he would find and stop me? Was I truly reluctant to leave this place? And why? Could it be because of the money and luxury this place provided? Or was Richard the reason for my hesitation? His eyes opened at that point. It was too late to look away, he already caught me staring. Richard sat up immediately and touched my forehead, checking my temperature. Memories of what I said yesterday flashed through my mind and my face turned red with embarrassment. Why did I do all th

UNKNOWN POVIn a dark storeroom, near the east gates of the imperial city, a man was standing, his face entirely covered with a black cloak. Another man dressed in all black, with a black mask covering his face knelt on one knee, his head bowed. A third one stood to the side, equally dressed in black assassin garbs, with his face covered. The man in the black cloak seemed to be their boss and the one in the assassin garb kneeling down seemed to be making a report to him. There was only the faint flicker of soft blue light from the light crystal lighting up the room. The boss seemed to be quite rich, he could even afford light crystals and a cloak made of black brocade. He appeared to be saying something to the one kneeling. “Are you certain of this?”“One hundred percent certain, my Lord. The imperial concubine is a blood wolf, an incredibly powerful alpha at that. I can't be mistaken about this. The moment I came in and launched an attack, she leaped off the bed with amazing agil

RONAS POVThe entire palace had been a beehive of activities in readiness for Richard's birthday in two days time, especially heaven's court, Richard's palace. I couldn't count the amount of animals that had been brought in to be killed, different species of the very best quality, the biggest and tastiest free range, organically raised animals, all for one person. Money sure was good. Even rare fishes from the southern sea were brought over in strange concrete ponds, and set up in the pantry extension behind Richard's palace, which was opened because of his birthday.The feast started two days ago for guests who came from afar and were lodged in the guest house, beside Olivia's previous palace, making everywhere busier than normal. Which of course meant that the guards had to be tripled to double check everyone's identity before entrance to avoid an enemy sneaking in. Yesterday when I went out, I saw checkpoints at strategic points connecting major roads and streets. Richard's palace
