All Chapters of REBORN LUNA'S REVENGE : Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

My breathe stuttered, and I vaguely felt Runa wrapping her arm around me. "My lady, please wake up!" I blinked rapidly, trying to soothe the fire behind my eyes, before I struggled to stand on shaky feet. The guard who'd been resistant to letting me go now had a grave look on his face. I grabbed Runa's hands, "Take me to the alpha." Everything after that was a blur. People were running, but I didn't know where they were running to. I caught men in long white robes rushing out with equipments I was sure to be medical care kit. I was acutely aware of Runa's grip on my arm, an offered support as she led me to towards another room. When I stepped in, multiple eyes zeroed in on me, and I didn't notice where I was until I felt my emotions string tighter than a rope. All my senses were attuned to the person on the bed, and I walked with heavy feet, unable to see or hear anyone until I got to his

My back straightened when I heard that familiar voice, and despite myself I turned to him quickly, hating that I wanted to check up on him even after everything. Lily was just as quick, her expression morphing into one of worry, before she moved towards him. "Oh, alpha! We've been so worried for you. How did this happen?" Her words broke off, huge gulps escaping her lips. My eyes travelled to her, and I mildly wondered if this was the woman who had been hell-bent on throwing me out. Now she looked so distraught, crying over my mate. I eyed her foolish performance. Damien managed a weak smile. "Those darned bear pack. I'll ruin them if it's the last thing I do." He spat angrily. Shivers travelled up my skin at the tight expression on his face, his muscles bulging with rage. Unconsciously, I reached my hand to soothe his tense forearm, and he visibly relaxed. I gasped, taken aback by th

I pulled Runa deeper into the room, closing the door behind her, and she squealed again. "Calm yourself down, what is it?" I tried not to let worry unfurl in my chest. Runa pressed her chubby palm to her chest, and stared back at me with bright eyes. "My lady, the alpha has removed the confinement bam on you. You are now as free as the first day you became an intended lady of Ker." She gestured wildly, her hands flying all around her, and I couldn't help the slow smile that crept up my face.The attack on Damien turned out to be a good thing after all, and I almost didn't hate the mate bond for making me cater for him. He must now be under the misguided conception that I would do anything for him. This was good if I wanted to be able to get close enough to him to kill him, and take his kingdom for myself. "Are you sure? This isn't some palace gossip? Damien said this?" I asked, trying to hide my eagerness

Him? What was he doing here? The oil I was lathing into my skin nearly dropped to the floor when I jumped up, feeling all flushed and bothered. Heat warmed my already hot skin, and I feared I would combust into flames. I wet my lips with the tip of my tongue, and opened my mouth again. "What—what are you doing here?" My words came out a little unsure, and a part of me realized how long it had been since I'd seen him. His usually infuriating presence doing the work of riling me up again. The Serpent. The room was too dark to make out his features clearly—something I thought would have been to my advantage if it was my mate in here instead of him. I was acutely aware that he was approaching me, my skin feeling extremely tight so suddenly. A frown lined my lips. "Don't come any closer, Axel." The words came out painfully breathy, and I had to clear my throat. What was wrong with me?

I glanced at the large clock in the room, my head feeling light and heavy at the same time. It felt like minutes since Axel had left after threatening to expose everything if I didn't help him by murdering a child. Even the thought of it left a bitter taste in my mouth that I couldn't quell. Would I really have no choice but to do it? If Axel kept his words, Damien would know everything, and my life would be over. Even if he didn't kill me immediately, I would probably be thrown into a dungeon to be tortured for eternity. Not a really long time if I considered the poison that still thrummed in my veins with every passing day. I slumped back on the bed, folding my hands under my knees, and curling up into a ball. Was there really no other way around this? I clenched my fist, angrily. Every time I felt like I had taken a step forward with the Serpent—every time I suddenly began to
