Chapter 16SERENA POVHe looked straight at me. His jaw was clenching together, the muscles tight and rigid, like a predator ready to strike. His expression remained cold, distant, unreadable, but I knew better.It shows just how furious he was that I dared to question him. That I dared to stand my ground against him. Every line of his face radiatingly cold with authority. The golden glow in his eyes signaled Zion’s presence: a warning that Zion was on the surface. His anger wasn’t just anger, it was dominance, power, and a storm threatening to consume me. The tension in the air was thick, I could feel the corridor tighten around us, almost suffocating, and I could feel my pulse quicken in response.“What kind of answer do you want? You think I will answer you? I owe you no explanation. And who do you think you are, how dare you question me?”Jayden’s voice rumbled, deep authoritative, lethal, and controlled, yet every word carried the weight of a storm barely restrained. His golden

Chapter 17 (Part 1)SERENA POVAs I woke up this morning, I sat up slowly and rested my back against the bed board, the silk sheets tangled around my legs. Sunlight filtered through the tall curtains, casting pale golden streaks across the room, but my mind was far from calm.My thoughts immediately drifted to what happened yesterday, and my chest tightened. Everything about it was intense. Overwhelming. Consuming. And despite myself, despite the humiliation, the anger, the sharp words meant to wound, Also the intimate part which I had enjoyed.I enjoyed and loved every part of it, and that realization alone made my heart race with guilt and desire all at once. The way Jayden handled me. The kiss. The way his hands gripped me, claimed space on my body like I already belonged to him, though I truly belong to him.The smooching. The hunger. The control.Every moment replayed vividly in my mind, and heat rushed to my cheeks. I pressed my palm against my chest, feeling my heart beat fast

Serena POV“Why are you asking me all this?” Zora asked nervously, her voice low and uneasy.Her fingers twisted together in front of her, knuckles whitening as she shifted her weight from one foot to the other. Her eyes darted briefly to the door, then back to me, as if she feared someone might overhear us. That alone made my chest tighten.“I just want to know the answer,” I said quietly.My voice was calm and firm, but inside, curiosity and unease churned together. My heart was pounding harder with every second that passed. Her reaction alone told me this was far more serious than I had imagined.I wasn’t asking out of idle interest. Something about Jayden’s past felt like a shadow that hovered over everything, his anger, his cruelty, his silence. I needed to understand it.“I’m sorry” she said after a pause, swallowing hard. “I can’t tell you, and I will implore you not to ask about it too,” she continued, looking a bit scared.Scared wasn’t even the right word. There was fear, ye

SERENA POV“What is it?” he said coldly.His voice held no warmth, no curiosity, no patience, only dismissal and irritation.He didn’t even turn fully toward me properly when he spoke. His shoulders were stiff, still angled away as if my presence alone was an inconvenience.His posture was rigid, as though he had already decided that whatever came out of my mouth would not matter.The distance between us felt wider than the field we stood on. The night air felt heavier all of a sudden.“It’s about me forgiving you,” I said calmly, though my chest felt tight. “For the stunt you pulled. For the hurtful words you said, have let go.”I kept my voice steady, refusing to let the tremor in my heart reach my tongue. I forced myself to meet his eyes. I refused to look weak. Refused to look like a woman begging for scraps of attention. I noticed Zora standing a few steps away, her hands clenched at her sides. The moment my words settled, she released a breath she had clearly been holding, reli

SERENA POV “It’s okay. We understand.” An elder said kindly, which took me by surprise. I was expecting for them to be angry or something. They are really nice.“It’s your first time here. It is normal not to get directions immediately. And it’s good to finally meet you, Luna. I am Elder Bryson,” Elder Bryson said, "I think he was the eldest among them, his voice calm but firm. “Thank you,” I said politely, taking a seat opposite Jayden. Zora followed.“Let’s begin,” another elder said, a stern man with piercing eyes.“That is Elder Marcus,” Zora mindlinked me, probably guessing what I was thinking.“Luna Serena,” Elder Marcus said. “Can you tell us your complaint? What really happened? And please go straight to the point” asked.“Thank you all for being here. My complaint is simple” I said clearly.“The complaint is that King Jayden refuses to allow me to perform my duties as Luna. He has denied me the responsibility of providing emotional, spiritual and physical guidance to the pa
