All Chapters of The Outcast Luna Becomes The Lycan Queen: Chapter 51 - Chapter 60

Imagining the official mate bond ritual with Veldrin, I instantly forgot everything that had happened earlier at Kaiden's place. Even though this would be my second marriage, it was the first time someone had ever performed a sacred ritual with me—the mate bond and the marking ceremony.I had never been so happy… and yet so nervous at the same time. That much was certain. My heart wouldn't settle, beating hard against my ribs like it wanted to break free.My stomach twisted at the thought of the sacred ceremony being carried out in front of a crowd, in front of all his subjects.I didn't know how many people would attend, but just imagining their eyes fixed on me was enough to make my blood run cold. My palms grew damp, and I rubbed them against my skirt, hoping the shiver running through me didn't show.'My Queen…' The words echoed in my mind, slow and heavy. My throat went dry, as if even my body was startled by that title. It didn't feel real. Not yet.Not wanting Veldrin to

That night, I went back to my grandfather's house, my steps quiet but my anger fierce. I had one goal: to confront him about what he'd done to my mate.The living room was cloaked in shadows, the air heavy and unmoving. He sat on one of the couches, his posture stiff, as though he had been waiting for me."You finally came, Veldrin…" His voice was thick, weighted with judgment, and the unspoken truth in it was clear; he disapproved of Larissa.That refusal struck a nerve, a slow burn turning into a roaring blaze inside me. This could split what little bond we had left. But it didn't matter. No one, not even him, would change what I felt for her.I didn't answer him. Instead, I stepped forward, each movement deliberate, the floor creaking under the weight of my presence. My eyes glowed brighter in the darkness, my Lycan King aura spreading through the room like an unseen tide. His pulse quickened; I could hear it.I dropped into the seat opposite him, not breaking eye contact. My sta

Several days had passed.As usual, after Veldrin left, I was alone again in the cabin with only Ara and Suzan nearby. However, they were both tucked away in the back, absorbed in their work.The morning drifted by in silence. I sat in the living room, curled up with a history book, its ink-stained pages pulling me deep into another time. The world outside faded; there was only the story, the weight of the words, and the stillness of the air.Then, soft footsteps. Remi's voice broke the silence."My lady, good morning…"I looked up. She was smiling, but there was a certain edge in her eyes, politeness mixed with something else."Hi, morning, Remi…" I returned her smile, though I studied her a moment longer before gently closing the book resting on my lap. "I was expecting you at lunch. Why are you here early?""His Highness asked me to," she replied with her calm tone. She paused before continuing. "My lady… a visitor is asking to see you."My brow arched. Veldrin hadn't said a word

The weight in my body pulled me downward, my knees buckling until the ground seemed to rise up to meet me.Remi was at my side in an instant, her hand closing firmly around my arm as she guided me toward a bench beneath the pine trees."My lady… are you alright?" she asked, her voice tight with panic, her eyes searching mine."I feel like my muscles are betraying me, Remi," I murmured, my breath shallow. I drew in another deep inhale, trying to force more air into my lungs.Without hesitation, she pressed a small glass bottle into my hand. "Drink this, my lady... This tonic will help you feel better."I didn't question her. The second the tonic went down, I started feeling warm, like fire melting away the cold. My tiredness faded, and all the muscle aches just disappeared as if they were never there."My lady, how are you feeling now? Is it better?""Yes. Much better." I gave her a faint smile, hoping to ease the worry in her eyes. "Thanks to you, Remi."I saw that Remi's tension eas

By the time we returned from Kaiden's place, all I wanted was to collapse and sleep.Kaiden had been kind, almost grandfatherly, and our lunch together had been filled with warmth and long, thoughtful conversation. But spirits above, the man could talk. His stories, his wisdom, his laughter, they clung to me like the lingering scent of smoke after a fire. Comforting, yes. Exhausting, even more so.When we finally pulled up to the cabin, I turned to Remi. "Go home. Rest. I'll be fine."She hesitated, as always, but obeyed....The moment my body hit the soft bed, the exhaustion I thought I'd left behind came crashing over me again. The tonic's fire had faded, leaving nothing but the ache of strained muscles and the heavy pull of weariness in my bones.Within moments, sleep pulled me under, deep, dark, and relentless.However, Sleep did not come gently.It dragged me into a strange, shadowed place, thick with fog that clung to my skin like cold breath. The air trembled with a low
