All Chapters of A Luna of Ice : Reborn for vengeance : Chapter 401 - Chapter 410

Kayla's pov Ingrid stood frozen in the doorway, holding a tote bag and wearing a look of complete panic. “I—um—Dr. Marcus said you were awake and I—oh, wow, okay—” she stammered, backing up a step. Adrian cleared his throat and leaned back, running a hand through his hair. I tugged the hospital blanket a little higher and avoided both of their eyes. “This is awkward,” Ingrid muttered, looking between us. “Especially since, you know… you two are supposed to be siblings.” I groaned and buried my face in my hands. “Thanks for the reminder, Ingrid.”She gave a nervous little laugh and stepped into the room before awkwardly walking forward and placing the bag down on the chair. “I brought you a change of clothes and some stuff from your room. Also… soup. Because you keep skipping meals.” “Thank you,” I mumbled. She gave me a quick hug and narrowed her eyes at Adrian. “Keep it PG while I’m gone. Or, better yet, don’t.” “No wait, I’m going downstairs to get her prescription,”

Kayla POV By the time we got back to the palace, I was exhausted. My head still throbbed faintly from whatever I had taken, but at least the dizziness had faded. Adrian walked beside me in silence, close enough to catch me if I wobbled again, but far enough not to crowd me. I appreciated it—though it didn’t make the lump in my throat any easier to swallow. The moment we passed through the palace doors, Adrian turned to me. “You should move back into our room,” he said gently. “Or at least closer to me.” I froze halfway up the stairs and turned to look at him. “We’re not—Adrian, I’m not moving back into your room. People already have enough to gossip about. I’m not giving them more.” He sighed, his jaw ticking slightly. “You just collapsed in the open, Kayla. Someone poisoned you or drugged you—whatever it was. You really think I care what people say right now?” “First of all, poisoned is an overreaction. The doctor just said something odd was found in my blood,” I said, holdin

Kayla's POVI and Adrian were currently on our way to Lady Catherine's quarters. “I really don’t think she wants to see me,” I said quietly, arms folded tightly as we stood in the elegant corridor of the Northern Wing. Adrian glanced sideways at me. “She’ll have to. It’s important, plus you are familiar with her so you have nothing to worry about.” I raised a brow at him. “Says the man who has no idea how much his mother terrifies people.” “She’s not that bad,” he muttered, but I caught the way his jaw tensed as he reached to knock. “Its a little funny how much she hates me now when She once said the goddess herself sent me to you,” I said lightly, trying to tease the edge off my nerves. “I almost thought I was her chosen golden womb but now she looks at me like I'm a viper waiting to strike.” Adrian’s lips twitched, but he didn’t smile. “That was before everything got... complicated.” I didn’t reply. What could I say? That I, too, sometimes wished I was still the girl full of

Kayla's POV I couldn’t breathe. I couldn’t slow down as I stormed through the corridors of the palace. Mia. I had just been informed by Adrian of her snooping around the kitchen this morning. Sneaking around and Whispering to staff. She was up to something devious, just like she had been back in Xaviers pack—right before I lost my child and lost everything. At first, I was furious, then I told myself it couldn’t be. That I was being paranoid. That maybe she was just… being vengeful. But no. I had gone to investigate myself and the way the kitchen staff stuttered when I asked if anyone had seen her that day, the way their eyes darted toward the pantry but no one dared speak—I knew. My fist clenched so hard that I thought I might crack a bone. No. Not again. I won't let her hurt me or my child again. I couldn't wait for Adrian, I would handle this my own damn self! I picked up my pace, the weight of everything crushing down on me. She wanted to take something precious from me

Kayla's POVWe had all moved back to my room now but For a full minute, I couldn’t breathe.I am Adrian's Mate?My ears were ringing, my heart was pounding so fast it felt like it would crash out of my chest. My knees nearly buckled underneath me, and I had to grip the edge of the table just to keep standing.“But--,” I whispered, staring at Adrian. “But how is this possible?”But I could feel it. The pull. The way the bond sang through my veins like wildfire and moonlight. And most of all—Kira.Kira.“I missed you,” I whispered in my mind, blinking back tears.My wolf stirred and stretched inside me like she'd just woken from a long, forced slumber.“I missed you too,” Kira purred, sounding stronger than I remembered. “And I’ve longed to meet him for so long... He’s ours, Kayla.”I looked at Adrian, and he was already moving toward me. His hands cupped my cheeks like he thought I might disappear, his forehead pressing against mine. His eyes were wide and shining.“You’re my mate,” he
