Semua Bab Reclaiming His Fated Luna: Bab 181 - Bab 190

KIERANI gathered my men in the council chamber, the heavy wooden table between us bearing the weight of too many sleepless nights. My voice was steady, though I could feel the knot of unease in my chest as I looked at each of their faces.“Listen to me,” I began, leaning forward, “things are changing faster than we expected. Lucian and his rogues aren’t sitting idle, and if we keep pretending we have time, we’ll regret it. We need to put things in place now, before he makes the first move.”Damon, my Beta, was the first to speak, his jaw tight. “Kieran, we’ve doubled patrols on the east and north borders. My men are exhausted, but they’re holding. Are you suggesting we add more?”I met his eyes and nodded slowly. “Yes. I know they’re tired, but if Lucian wants to break through, he’ll look for the weakest point. He’s smart. He’ll find it.”One of the younger warriors, Jax, shifted in his seat and frowned. “So what do you expect us to do, Alpha? Sleep with one eye open forever? Peace i

LUCIANI leaned back in my chair, listening to the low murmurs of my men as they argued over border patrols and supply shortages. My patience was already thinning, and I was about to shut them up when the heavy doors burst open. One of my guards rushed in, his chest heaving as if he’d sprinted all the way from the gates.“Alpha,” he bowed slightly, his voice strained, “Raven… Raven is here to see you.”For a second, I thought I’d misheard him. “Raven?” I repeated slowly, my brows drawing together.“Did you just say Raven?”“Yes, Alpha. She insists on seeing you.”The room went silent. My men exchanged glances, some whispering under their breath. I slammed my palm on the table, silencing them instantly.“Enough.” I pushed myself up from the chair, my chest tightening with confusion. The last person I expected to walk through my doors was Raven. She had every reason to avoid me, yet here she was.“Send her in,” I ordered, my voice lower now.The guard nodded quickly and disappeared. Mom

RAVENI remember sitting alone that night, the firelight casting shadows across the walls, and for the first time, I allowed myself to say it out loud.“This is going to get worse,” I whispered, my voice barely audible. My hands clenched into fists against my knees. The silence pressed in until I couldn’t bear it, so I said it again, louder this time. “The battle isn’t ending anytime soon.”I heard footsteps behind me, and without even turning, I knew it was one of Kieran’s men. “You sound restless, Raven,” he said, his tone low but probing.“I’m more than restless,” I shot back. “I’m… preparing.”“Preparing for what?” he pressed, moving closer.“For the truth,” I said. “For the moment when no one can hide behind alliances or half-kept promises. You’ve seen it, haven’t you? Kieran grows bolder every day, ready to rip through Lucian’s rogues, but Lucian…he isn’t about to roll over and die. And me?” I looked up at him, my eyes sharp.“I’m standing in the middle of wolves with blood in t

ROWENAI could hear them, the whispers all around the marketplace. It didn’t matter how hard they tried to keep their voices low, my ears picked up every word.“Did you hear? Raven finally left Kieran’s pack.” Someone muttered just behind me, and another voice quickly cut in, “Not just that…she’s thrown her lot in with Lucian and his rogues.”I froze for a moment, my basket of herbs hanging loosely in my hand, and tried not to let my face betray the storm inside me.“Rowena, you heard it too, didn’t you?” Maren, one of the older women, touched my arm with a knowing look.“Tell me it’s not true. Tell me Raven hasn’t gone and done something so reckless.”I swallowed, forcing myself to meet her gaze. “I can’t tell you that, Maren. Because from everything I’ve heard… It's true. She left. And now, she’s with Lucian.”Gasps rippled around, but no one seemed shocked enough. They’d been waiting for this, maybe even expecting it.“She must have lost her mind,” a younger man said, stepping clos

RAVENAs I sat there, my eyes fixed on Lucian while he spoke to his men. I couldn’t help but take in the way he carried himself, how every instruction he gave was sharp, deliberate, and dripping with the kind of conviction that left no room for doubt. He wasn’t just planning another fight…he was orchestrating something bigger, something heavier. I leaned forward, my voice breaking the silence between us.“Lucian,” I said slowly, testing his name like it carried new weight now, “you’ve thought this through, haven’t you? Every move, every counter. It’s like you already know how Kieran will respond.”He glanced at me, a flicker of a smirk touching his lips, though his eyes stayed cold. “That’s because I do know,” he replied, his tone steady.“Kieran fights with pride. Pride makes men predictable. He’ll step into every trap I set because his ego won’t let him retreat.”I folded my arms, trying to keep my voice level. “And you’re not just fighting for dominance, are you? This isn’t about t
