All Chapters of The Lycan's Luna: Reclaiming her Throne: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

Elowen's POVAll I could remember was his touch, his kiss. That feeling when he held me. I felt safe.Darin.At least I got his name this time. Something about him seemed familiar, now that I thought about it. It wasn't just the time when I bumped into him while I was searching for the maid's quarters or when he came into my room earlier. It was something deeper, but I couldn't understand how.The door opened and someone came in.The last person I was expecting to see today. MontanneI didn't know how to react. A part of me was scared. All of me was scared.I hadn't seen her since she had caught me in her room, accused me of stealing from her, and ordered her guards to take me to a dungeon to be whipped.And since...her mate, the King saved me from the prison cell with his own arms. I shuddered at the thought. I had never even met him before. I hadn't even seen his face. I still didn't know why he did that and I needed to find out why.Montanne must be furious and here to poison me

Elowen's POVThe cellar was quiet. The air was cool and musty with the smell of old wood and even older wine. I ran my fingers over the dusty shelves, trying not to think too much while working. I was taking record of the dates of each wine chamber and figuring out which one would be suitable for the event.Yes.I had said 'Yes' to Montanne. I accepted her request to supervise the winery for her wedding celebration. For a moment, I thought maybe I'd lost my mind. But I remembered I was only doing this as a means to an end, and the end was to leave BloodHowl.And maybe Montanne wasn't as evil as I had thought. She assigned me a special room so I didn't have to stay in the maid's quarters and a personal guard who I asked to wait outside my room so I could have some quiet here.It felt so good to be doing something. I didn't even realize how sick and tired I was of lying down in bed all day. It was almost suffocating.Hares wasn't too pleased when I told him about Montanne's offer.

Damien's POV It shouldn’t have happened.Again.But goodness me, I didn’t regret it. Not for a second.Her lips still lingered on mine even after she pulled away — like the ghost of something beautiful that couldn’t stay.I watched her leave.I let her.I told myself it was the right thing to do — that if I’d stopped her, it would’ve only made things worse. Afterall, I was going to be married in a few moons from now, and nothing could stop it.But the truth was simpler than that.I was afraid. Of what it meant. Of what she meant. And of everything I would lose if I decided to go after her.I stayed in the cellar a little longer. My heart pounding, breath ragged. Her name was still echoing in my mind like a prayer, like all the prayers I had been offering to the moon goddess.Elda.And then, like a splash of cold water to my face, th

Elowen's POVAs soon as he was out of sight, I moved and tried to look around.But he was back too quickly, before I could even look anywhere. Luckily I heard his footsteps and was seated before he came in.He offered me the apples. I wore a foolish smile that hopefully read 'thank you' and took the apple.I nibbled at the apple and let the sweetness linger on my tongue longer than necessary. He looked at me. Maybe curious, maybe wondering why I was really here— maybe hoping I'd get into bed with him before I left.The apple actually tasted good.Really good. For a moment, I almost forgot why I came.He just sat there and watched me with his curious golden eyes. "I know you may not want to talk about this Elda, but wherever you came from, I'm sure they must be missing you"He inched closer to me. We were now sitting side by side on the bed."But I am glad that shipwreck happened because it brought you to me""That's a very inconsiderate thing to say don't you think?" I asked throu

Today was the wedding.The palace was thrumming with energy. The maids hurried across the marbled corridors, cooks were yelling over each other in the kitchens, footmen polishing candelabras like their lives depended on it. Everywhere I turned, there was movement, chaos, and some joy. It had been a long time since there was any cause for celebration in BloodHowl, so I heard. Even though not all the people agreed with Montanne as their Luna, they definitely wouldn't turn down seven days of bountiful food and wine that was open to all. I held a checklist in one hand and waved orders with the other. “Marna, take three of the younger girls to the East Wing. The royal wine is arriving there. And tell the kitchen master to add cinnamon to the berry cider. I heard the nobles from Revanor prefer it spiced.”Marna nodded and dashed away at my words.I turned to scan the courtyard as the staff arranged decorative vines and polished brass wine goblets on the tables.There was a strange sense
