All Chapters of The Rejected Luna: Chapter 51 - Chapter 58

Prisca walked away from the Advisor’s Mansion with a slightly lighter heart than when she had arrived and made her way back down the winding path toward the main pack house. Her father’s reassurances had calmed some of her fears but she still felt nervous about what Kane might discover if he continued investigating Maya’s abduction. Back at the mansion Advisor Ralph watched his daughter disappear around the bend in the path before turning and walking back into his garden. He sat down heavily on the wooden bench where they had been talking and stared out at the trees surrounding his property without really seeing them. “My plan has been falling into place perfectly until that child of a bitch came into the picture,” he muttered to himself as his hands clenched into fists on his knees. “Everything was going exactly how I wanted it and now Maya’s arrival has thrown all my carefully laid schemes into chaos.” He stood up and began pacing back and forth across the garden while his mind

Maya found herself standing in a huge forest surrounded by wolves of different sizes and colors that moved around her in what seemed like some kind of ceremony or gathering. The trees towered above them and blocked out most of the sunlight leaving the forest floor covered in shadows and patches of dim light.She looked around at all the wolves and noticed that they were all focused on something in the center of their circle and when she followed their gazes she saw a white wolf with golden eyes that stood out among all the others. This wolf was larger and more magnificent than any she had ever seen and its pure white fur seemed to glow even in the dim forest light.All the wolves suddenly bowed low to the white wolf in a show of respect and reverence that made it clear this was someone of great importance and power. Maya stood there watching and admiring the beautiful creature as it moved gracefully through the circle of bowing wolves.The white wolf’s golden eyes suddenly locked onto

It had been two days since Camilla left for the healer’s place and Maya found herself counting the hours until her friend would return. The palace felt so boring without Camilla’s presence and Maya realized just how much she had become attached to her over the months they had spent together.She moved through her daily routines in the kitchen preparing meals and overseeing the other maids but everything seemed duller and less interesting without Camilla stopping by to chat or invite her for walks in the garden. Maya caught herself looking toward the doorway multiple times throughout the day expecting to see Camilla walk in with her bright smile.“Maya can you check the bread in the oven?” one of the younger maids called out. “I think it might be ready to come out but I’m not sure.”Maya walked over and opened the oven door to examine the loaves inside. “Give it another five minutes,” she said. “The tops need to brown a bit more before they’re done.”She returned to the counter where s

Maya’s eyes almost popped out of their sockets as Timothy’s accusation rang through the small chamber and echoed into the hallway beyond. She stood frozen in place trying to process what had just happened and why this guard was suddenly screaming lies about her.“What the hell is going on?” Maya stuttered as she looked between Timothy and the door where pack members were already starting to gather after hearing his shouts. “I just brought you your dinner and I didn’t do anything else.”But Timothy continued pointing at her with a wild expression on his face. “She came into my room and started making advances toward me,” he said loudly enough for everyone in the corridor to hear. “She touched my arm and said inappropriate things while she was supposed to be delivering my food.”“That’s not true,” Maya protested as more faces appeared in the doorway. “I walked in and put your plate on the table and asked if you needed anything else and that’s all that happened.”Other pack members had a
