All Chapters of From Slave to Queen, Yet Never His Luna: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Fifteen years ago.The proudest little princess of Sliver Ridge Pack, the girl raised in the palm of everyone’s hand, the daughter who had once loved them just as fiercely as they claimed to love her—that Nina had died a long time ago.They were the ones who killed her with their own hands.That tiny white robe had been torn by the wind, snagged in midair, then shaken loose and dropped into the mud.I stared straight at Evelyn. My meaning couldn’t be clearer.That robe belonged to Nina of Sliver Ridge. It didn’t belong to me—the Blood Wash Grounds cleaner.Evelyn didn’t say a single word. She even forgot how to cry.She just stared at me, the emotions in her eyes cracking apart bit by bit until they shattered completely.From beginning to end, my gaze never rippled, as still as a stagnant pond.Liam opened his mouth like he wanted to say something, yet finally kept it shut.I knew he wanted to argue, to spit out every insult he could find—anything to fill this suffocating silence.I l

With Cole protecting her, Lily only grew more pitiful on purpose.She practically hid herself behind him, not even daring to show her face.It was disgusting and artificial.I felt a wave of disgust rise in my chest and said coldly, “Elder Mya won’t want to see you. Go back.”Maybe because her mate was right there beside her, Lily suddenly found some courage.She peeked out from behind Cole and questioned me, “You’re not Mya. How do you know she doesn’t want to see me?”For a second, I almost laughed.Mya was the one who’d fallen ill—and Lily was the exact cause.Yet here she was, acting innocent and ignorant, like she had no idea what she’d done.My expression darkened. I stepped toward Lily, my voice dropping to a low, icy tone. “Do you really not remember what you did?”Fear flickered in Lily’s eyes and she shrank back behind Cole again.Clutching his cloak, her whole body shook. “I-I came here today to apologize to Elder Mya.”I was still staring at Lily when Cole couldn’t hold ba

The air felt like it had frozen.My mocking question made Cole’s pupils tighten, his breathing turn rough.I’ll admit it—I wanted to mess with him.So what if he still had a shred of feeling for me? He wouldn’t dare agree.Cole was never going to break his engagement, and I was never going to escape mine.He and I were always destined to end up as strangers...I didn’t want to think about it anymore. I walked away with long strides.As we brushed past each other, I could hear the whisper of his cloak grazing the wind.But I never looked back.So of course I didn’t see the surge of desire that surged in his blue‑green eyes....I finally got to see Mya.The palace was thick with the heavy smell of herbs and a faint scent of blood.I walked slowly toward her room.On the bed, Mya’s white hair was spread over the pillow. She couldn’t stop coughing, but the moment she saw me, her eyes lit up.She was like an old tree about to wither—still forcing itself to stand, even though the roots ha

Lily went pale in an instant at that one sentence.I knew exactly what she was thinking—whether Cole still had feelings for me, whether some part of him still liked me.She was terrified that it had been his idea to hold me, not an accident at all.While she was spiraling, another voice cut in, dripping sarcasm.“Everyone knows how Nina used to chase Cole back then. And she dares to say things like that now.”I turned and saw Fiona.A quiet murmur of laughter rippled through the crowd, low and mean.They were laughing at me.Of course they were. I’d once loved Cole openly and fiercely, with all the reckless courage of youth.I’d loved him like fire—blazing, unhidden, chasing after what I wanted!Every werewolf in the Pack knew it.And now, three years on, that love had become a joke.A story about a girl who threw away her rights and future to please a man.Did it hurt?Of course it did.If I’d known my love would be tossed aside, that one day it would be something people laughed abou

The moment I spoke about Lily’s bad intentions, Clara snapped, “You’re lying! Lily’s not like that.”“Oh?” I arched a brow. “So you really don’t remember anything.”As anger faded from her face, something more complicated took its place.She remembered the moment she fell—the helpless panic.She remembered Liam and Cole rushing forward to save her—only to stop.Who had stopped them?Watching her go pale, I chuckled softly. “Lily was ‘worried about your reputation’ and pulled Liam and Cole back. Personally, I think your name and reputation aren’t worth much compared to your life.”I spoke as I picked up the medicine the Pack Doctor had left on the table.“Besides, Cole is your brother. Who would dare gossip if he saved you? As for Liam... He’s unmarried. If people really did talk, he could just marry you. Either way, they shouldn’t have stood by and watched you drown. Don’t you think?”I finished and smiled at her.I knew Clara’s temper too well.We’d been competing since we were kids.
