All Chapters of Balance of Light and Shadow: Chapter 251 - Chapter 258

Lewana POV After waking from the best night's sleep I've had in weeks, I spent my last calm day throughout the pack house. Conrad was in his last all-day meeting to get the alliance agreements signed, then tomorrow is coronation day. The sun has already set, and the first night of the full moon is here. I sit in the moon garden and just stare up at the Moon Goddess. I know I see her shining down on us every night from the sky, but I have missed many moons talking to her. I really miss talking to her and getting guidance and support when I'm worried. I feel her gentle rays warming my soul, and the connection calming Serena. I look up and can't help but talk things through to calm my nerves. "I'm sorry I've missed so many moons. I miss you. Unfortunately, I'm struggling to walk, let alone hold my breath underwater for 20 minutes. Think the biggest thing I wanted to talk to you about is what to do with these two. I know I had the mother who died defending me, the mother who raised an

Lewana POV As soon as the wedding ceremony is over, we all head into the barn for the reception. Most of the people here are humans, as the pack will participate in the following coronation ceremony more. We do all the usual stuff I have seen before. Have a meal, cut the cake, and dance. I stay by Conrad's side most of the night, but I am looked after by the bridesmaids very well. They whisk me away to rest when needed, made sure I ate, and that I wasn't on my feet for too long. The main benefit of being extremely pregnant and having a serious scare a while ago is that when the night was called at 9:30, no one batted an eyelid. As all the humans pack up and leave, Conrad and I retreat to the side room to get ready for the next ceremony. The coronation. As soon as the door shuts, he guides me over to the seat. "How are you holding up, Moonlight? I know it's a big day for you". I look down at my belly and rub it gently. "I'm good. We're all good. Today has been amazing. I'm sorry

Lewana POV Yesterday really took it out of me. A wedding, a coronation, and a possession to top it off is making every inch of my body ache. The sun has barely breached the top of the trees, and I get out of bed, annoyed because I'm hungry and uncomfortable. I try to waddle as gracefully as I can away from the bed to not wake Conrad and head straight for the kitchen. As soon as I open the fridge, I spot leftover pasta and dig in. I slowly make my way to the private living room and make myself comfortable with my giant prize and dig in. I must have fallen back asleep in the chair at some point, as I woke with a kiss to the forehead. "Morning, my Luna Queen. When did you end up down here?" I open my eyes and smile at my mate. "Blame your pups. They decided breakfast started at 5am today". I start to get up, but struggle as my entire body feels like rubber bands stretching. I wince at sensation, and Conrad instantly panics. "You OK. You don't normally struggle this much in the mor

2 years, 2 months laterLewana POV "Audrey, will you stop wiggling? You need to have nice hair for Daddy's birthday party tonight". This traitorous little one instantly sits still at the mention of Conrad. She would do anything for him, but she seems to enjoy ignoring me. I got the last clip in when she hears the door open and takes off running while screaming. "DDDAAAA DDAAAA". Conrad picks her and spins her as she grips him tightly. "There's my little Princess. And how is my amazing Luna Queen doing?" I grumble. "Wondering if I should be referring to our little Princess as her Royal terror". He laughs at me. "You're just jealous I'm her favorite". I gasp and clutch my chest in shock, and he rolls his eyes. I love the fact that I could give her my mother's name, but at the same time, it feels wrong to tell her off. Conrad looks at his watch. "We'd better start heading down to the barn. The pack will be there waiting by now". I smile and head into the nursery that joins our
