Lahat ng Kabanata ng Azriel King's Luna: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

PAIGE’S POV Slowly I opened my eyes, rolling my numb body as I turned, blinking through the mellow light that guided me back into a state of consciousness.Distantly, I felt pain in my back and stomach, pressing in as more consciousness dawned on me. My senses were too distracted to truly accept the pain, and an unpleasant scent of flowers muddled with dirt surrounded me.“My love… You are awake.”I blinked again, feeling the soft press of a pillow under my head and a blanket draped over me. I wasn't in our room. So where was I?My attempt to sit up was quickly stopped by the stabbing pain I felt in my stomach.“Take it easy, love.” I turned to the voice and saw Azriel staring at me with worry. His eyes were filled with pain and trouble.“Azriel,” I called in a hoarse tone. “Why am I here? Why do I feel so much pain in my abdomen?”He didn't say a word, but took my hand into his instead.“Say something! What's going on?” I gritted out. Then the memories of what happened came rush

PAIGE’S POV Immediately I felt Azriel slip out of the bed and walk out of the room, I figured he had something important to do from the way he hurried out. Since I couldn’t go back to sleep, I decided to shake off the stiffness in my body and also organise my things.I had overheard Azriel and the doctor talking earlier about my discharge so I needed to be ready when he returned. I seriously couldn’t wait to leave the hospital and return home. The hospital smell and the disinfectant smell were killing me, and I hated it.After properly having a good stretch, I walked over to the window to let some fresh air in and ventilate the room. Then I moved to take my duffle bag that was placed on the chair, I opened it and brought out my toothbrush first so I wouldn't forget. While at it, I saw one of Azriel's hoodies on the bed so I folded it and kept it inside the bag. That was how I did with all the clothes scattered all over the room. Once I was done, I went to the bathroom to brush my te

AZRIEL’S POVI tapped my fingers anxiously against the table as I watched the council members fly in hurriedly.I didn't want to be there, but the meeting was important. Paige was not here because I didn't want anything that would upset her, not after she broke down yesterday. She was slowly getting better. Her emotions were still delicate and I was trying to avoid anything that might cause her any form of emotional distress. I told Renee to stay with her until I was done with today's meeting. I looked up as the last man finally walked in looking disorganised; the meeting was an impromptu one. I was so disturbed when I saw my mate in such a terrible state that I had to fix an emergency meeting with the council members. Paige was quite sad that I was leaving her alone in bed but I made a promise to make it back on time and that was what I planned to do. I saw no reason to spend hours here when I had someone important waiting for me. Trevor cleared his throat, pulling me begrudgingly

PAIGE’S POV I woke up alone in bed, which was quite surprising because I always know when Azriel leaves the bed. The curtains were drawn closed but my heavy exhaustion told me that the sun wasn’t up yet.I ran my fingers gently through his side of the bed.It felt warm.I pulled myself out of bed, taking a deep breath to stop nausea churning in my stomach. Once it had stopped, I put on some proper clothes and made my way to Azriel's office. I could hear him shouting at the top of his voice before I reached his office. I pushed open the door to a scene that I had been seeing for several days now.Azriel was walking angrily around the room, yelling at someone who was probably wholly undeserving of it, while Trevor was at the corner, furiously typing on his laptop.Poor laptop!Immediately after I entered the room, they both looked up to see who it was, then continued with their tasks.“This is outrageous!” Azriel shouted yet again as I took the seat behind his desk. “How hard is it to

AZRIEL’S POV The sound of my phone’s alarm jolted me awake. With sleep-filled eyes, I turned to my side to see Paige sleeping soundly like a baby with her hand on my chest. Her lips were slightly parted with a low sound coming from her. I smiled and quietly removed her hands from my chest. I gently stood up and walked to the bathroom.It was still pretty early, but I needed to get to the office to get some work done because I had intended to spend the rest of the day with Paige. I took a quick shower, put on my clothes, and did some of the necessary things. I took another glance at Paige and saw she was still sleeping, so I moved closer and gave her a gentle peck on her forehead before stepping out of the room.By the time I got downstairs, Stella was already in the kitchen, organising some groceries neatly into the fridge.“You are quite early today,” I said as I announced myself by knocking on the door first, not to startle her.“Yes, your majesty,” she said with a smile. “I went
