Semua Bab The Omega's Moon Destiny: Bab 41 - Bab 50

Jaxon’s POV When I opened my eyes, the bed beside me was empty. The sheets were still warm, but she was gone. I stretched, running a hand down my face. She must've gone to the training grounds. That woman wouldn’t take a break if the moon itself fell out of the sky. I pulled on a robe and headed for the council chamber. I had a meeting this morning with the Elders and my Beta. Plans that needed finalising. Or at the very least, arguments to be had. When I stepped into the meeting room, all four of them were already seated. The three Elders sat in their usual spots while Liam was standing by the window. "Nice of the Alpha to finally grace us with his presence," Elder Geoffrey muttered, not bothering to hide his disdain. "Careful, old wolf," I said as I walked toward the table. "I was detained by urgent matters. My wife needed me in bed." Geoffrey's face twisted as if he’d bitten into something rotten. "That kind of talk is not suitable for council discussion." I pulled out my c

Raven’s POV After the day's training, I headed back into the mansion, but I didn’t move toward the stairs. I should have gone to change, but my feet wouldn’t carry me there. My mind was already elsewhere. I thought of Jaxon and of the way he’d come to my room last night, silent but present and lying beside me like there wasn’t a wall of things left unsaid between us. We hadn’t spoken much since our fight, but it had been something. Still, not enough to fix it. I sighed as I kicked off my muddy boots and placed them by the door. We had more to go over. We had things to talk through, important things. I turned away from the front door and walked toward the council room, hoping to catch him there. One of the warriors had told me that he would be having a meeting with his elders. Maybe for once, we’d have a proper moment to talk. When I pushed open the council doors, it wasn’t Jaxon I saw but Liam, standing over the large table with his eyes narrowed in thought. His fingers hovered j

Yara’s POV I moved quickly down the corridor, my skirt gathered in one hand and my head tilted just enough to watch behind me. The last thing I needed was Marren or Tilly poking their noses where they didn’t belong. Marren especially. She always hovered like she was waiting to catch me doing wrong. She always was doing that. The hall was mostly quiet tonight. One torch was burning low on the far wall, so I kept to the shadows. When I reached Luna Yulia’s door, I stopped and knocked once. The door opened and her face appeared, eyes sharp and mouth already in a thin and impatient line. "Is the coast clear?" "Yes," I whispered. "You have an hour." She nodded. "Good. That’s all I need." She shut the door, and I sat down on the chair beside it. The wood was rough against the backs of my legs, but I didn’t shift. I didn’t need comfort right now. I needed to focus. About fifteen minutes passed, long enough for things to get warm on the other side of the door. Then, I heard heavy and s

Yara's POV The guards barely looked me in the eye as they led me through the corridors, towards Alpha Malachi's chamber; he had summoned me that morning. Ever since Luna Yulia's arrest, the palace had felt like a wound trying to scab over. Alpha Malachi hadn't been yelling or pacing like I thought he would. He had been quiet. And that was far more dangerous. When I was shown into his chamber, he was standing by the window with a goblet in his hand, and his back to me. And even from this position, I could see the slump in his shoulders, the exhaustion in his stance. This was a defeated man. He didn’t speak right away, and I didn’t rush to fill the silence. I waited with my hands folded in front of me, head bowed just slightly. "I should have been more careful with her," Alpha Malachi finally murmured. I raised my head slowly. "With Luna Yulia?" He turned to face me. The light from the window threw his entire face into relief, so I couldn't see the look on it. "The signs were t

Jaxon's POV A few days later, another meeting with the council was organized, and I was not looking forward to it. Because I knew what Elders Geoffrey, Pierre and Williams were going to say before any of them opened their mouth. "You should not go alone to Silver Moon Pack, Alpha," Elder Geoffrey said first. "Have a royal escort at the very least. Perhaps fifty men. It shows power and stability. And besides, who knows what your Luna's father has in plan for you? A man who could turn his back away from you when you needed it the most, can do anything." Elder Pierre nodded. "We are not sending you there as a beggar. Let Viktor see that we do not bow." I shook my head the moment they finished talking, "Fifty warriors for a party? If I arrive surrounded by soldiers, it looks like I'm preparing for war or begging for help. Neither message works well for me." Elder Williams cleared his throat. "Do you think going alone makes you look strong, Alpha Jaxon?" "It makes me look unbothered,
