All Chapters of When The Moon Remembers: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Elara Moonstone One week. It was exactly one week after the Lycan King had left the palace at dusk of night. Maera has been in a cell and I haven't seen what the outside of my room walls looked like. The pain and shame were driving me insane but there was nothing I could do. My hands were tied and these past weeks have shown me that it is indeed possible to run out of tears. For one week, I did not come in contact with another living soul, I was treated as if I had a deadly disease. It broke me but, I had to be strong or at least pretend to be. Maera was my greatest worry; if they were making me go through all of this, I could only wonder what they were making her go through. The door creaked open and Lyra stepped in, accompanied by two maids who looked at me with so much disdain in their eyes. I remembered them, they used to fight to serve me. They have always tried to win my trust because somehow I didn't feel okay to get close to them. "Where's Maera?" I demanded as soon as she

Elara Moonstone The dream left me restless, Rowan's treatment even left me more worried. The rumor was beginning to circulate that something was wrong with me, I could hear them whispering and moving faster when they got to the front of my door. "She's crazy. No wonder she always acted like that" I heard a voice one time while she made her way through my passage. The rage and hate filled my heart, sometimes I wondered if they were even worth fighting for. They clearly didn't want me anymore but I had nowhere else to go. My father's legacy must be protected and the only way I know how is to stay here and fight. The truth was evident, there was no way I could fight for people to love me and want me. If they felt this way about me then it's only a lost cause. "Hmm, she is really a disgrace. The late Alpha will be rolling in his grave" the other one responded. My heart broke more than it ever has, my father had been brought into this and nothing had even warranted it. The hatred began

Elara Moonstone Slowly, I had lost my peace and quiet; it was almost as if every day came with its own new problems. Lyra has insisted on her being crowned as Luna. It didn't even matter that I existed anymore, I was merely something they had to endure throughout their day. "Your majesty, how are you doing this morning?" Maera asked me as she slightly limped around the room."Why are you working? Come and relax." I called to her, pointing to the sofa. "You are far too kind. They merely locked me and threw me in a room. Lyra threatened me a few times but that was all it ever was" she said with a smile on her face. "I will get us out of these Maera. I need to start making strategic moves. The elders have to see reasons with me. Lyra is going to be the end of us all, if we do not take proactive measures about her, there is something wrong with her but I can't place my hands on it." I said and Maera looked at me, her eyes scanning my head as if she was looking at something strange."Y

Elara MoonstoneTwo weeks had passed, and it was now the night before the official joining of Lyra and Rowan. Every day, I tried to build up my walls so I wouldn't feel anything, but the bustling in the palace reminded me of my current reality. Maera was fully healed now, so I barely ever let her leave the house. “If you were me, what would you do, Maera?” I asked her when she brought me dinner after taking away the lunch that I had barely even taken a second glance at. “That is a tough question, Your Majesty, but I have never thought that the Moonfang Pack deserved the Moonstone's leadership. We deserve people like Lyra, a scary small bug” she said, and we both laughed. It was in simple moments like this that I was most grateful for Maera. It didn't matter if the whole world was becoming uninhabitable for me; she would always show up as my safe space. “Thank you, Maera. That didn't help, but it did make me happy. Especially the part where Lyra is a small bug” I said, and we laugh

King LucaMy morning was peaceful; the sea hit the banks softly as I took a walk along the private beach in the estate that housed my mansion, ranch, and everything else that came with it. Even though my surroundings were peaceful, something inside me wasn't settled. I felt like there was chaos brewing somewhere, but I could not place my hands on it. George had informed me about the meeting with the men from the upper town this morning, but I had somehow not been in the mood to see anyone. Instead, I went to the beach to relax my mind. "My king, a woman is here," George yelled as he ran to me. He was out of breath, and there was a sense of urgency in his eyes. "Elara?" I asked, hoping that she was the one who had finally come to me. "No, my king. Maera, she is from Moonfang Pack and has insisted on seeing you immediately" he said as I looked at him, pondering for a moment. "Do you think Elara sent her?" I asked George. "She would rather not speak to anyone else but the Lycan kin
