The Rise Of The White Luna のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

Axel's POVI stood before the polished bronze mirror, reaching for the linen undershirt as I pulled it over my shoulders. I had never fancied being attended to, so I preferred handling my things on my own.Well, that's how I grew up, before my old man left me to look after his legacy.My fingers moved to the leather vest, securing each straps and buttons with precision, and practiced ease. After, I squatted lightly to put on the dark-colored tunic, and wound the belt around my waist gently. After one last look in the mirror, I nodded in satisfaction. Actually, the reason I took time to groom my looks was because of Exalia. Just when I draped the crest of my forefathers on the chest pocket, a knock sounded from the door.“Yes?” I called out, busying myself with my hair.“My Lord, all the Alphas from different Packs and districts have arrived. And, they are already waiting for you in the Audience chamber with their Lunas.” Ronan's voice rang out, but I didn't bat an eyelid. With a no

Exalia's POV The once fearless Alpha, seemed almost fragile under the weight of Axel's oppressive aura, he recoiled backward without being able to counterattack in the slightest. His bravado crumbled, and his confident smirk a while ago had twisted into a painful grimace. He curled and unfurled his fists, trying to meet Axel's gaze, but cowered at the last minute.He cast his head down, like a subject in the presence of his King. The room fell silent, none daring to speak up, probably fearing that Axel would direct this crushing pressure on them. Even those Lunas from earlier could only dip their heads down. I didn't have an opportunity to worry about why I wasn't affected by his aura, but I could feel it when I saw how Lucia wasn't affected as well.It seems Axel's target was only Richard, he probably didn't want to stoop low as punishing a male by himself. “Richard!” Lucia exclaimed in worry, as she reached out to support her Alpha.She didn't dare to blame Axel, and merely gla

Exalia's POV The Luna choked on her next word, her expression turning ugly, but she didn't utter any other word. Truth to the rumors, Axel seemed to be an unreasonable Alpha, who only does what he likes. Yet, his actions contained an undeniable charm, fatal to maidens. The thought made me strangely displeased, but I pushed the feeling away. “Exalia is my mate, and I will not condone any acts of disrespect towards her. Disrespecting her is similar to disrespecting me, and without telling you, you should know the consequences of going against me. I won't say much, let's start discussing the reason for our gathering for today.” A stillness fell over the chambers, and the Alphas seemed to organize their thoughts, before one of them spoke up. “Alpha, the Border Exchange this time will take place in our lands, there shouldn't be too many casualties. And, as usual, we should be in the leading position.” Axel nodded, “I know.” His frown deepened, “What I am worried about is this new

Axel's POV Exalia spoke up at this moment, “Also, our movement is being monitored by our enemies as well, so we should be careful of what we do. I advise we do everything secretly, lest they get news of our plans. Most of them should have gotten the news of the witch, so they must be preparing, and they might want to imitate us. If they do, our plan will definitely be exposed, and we would have even more enemies. So, it would be better if we keep our plans inside.” She explained calmly. This time, no one refuted because she was utterly right. Our lands were at stake here, and if those people get hold of them, it would be a massive catastrophe as others will begin to stretch out their claws.Furthermore, if we don't retain the position of the Victor, we would have to give out three portions of our lands, that's almost the same thing as giving everything out. To make things worse, they would be the one to choose the portion of land they wanted, and we must agree or else, the remaini

Exalia's POV An ominous feeling took place in my chest, followed by anxiety that made my palms clammy with sweat.A strange death? Why does it sound similar to the dream I had last night?An Alpha spoke up doubtfully, “It's different from an ordinary chronic flu? How?” He asked, staring at the man named Julian fixedly. The memory from the dream emerged in my mind once again - the way those people dropped to their death without even knowing how, and countless graves that signifies how several people had already died.I pressed my lips into a thin line, before turning to look at Axel, I parted my lips, but no words came out. What could I say? I dreamt people were dying, but so? I didn't dream of how I could be of help.Moreover, it's just a pack, and it's only a few people who lost their lives. It might be simply an ordinary flu that was left untreated for many days, according to Axel.I didn't dare to say anything, and merely watched on with knitted brows, while numerous thoughts flo
