Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Alpha’s Rejected Luna, The Enemy’s Crowned Queen : Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 26

(Lyra's POV)"Lyra!" Iris's voice woke me up; rays of sunlight hit my eyes almost immediately. "Iris, shift back; your breath stinks." She laughed and playfully smacked my shoulders. "Ouch." I still felt pain in my shoulders. I tried to sit up; that was a mistake. It felt like my skin was sagging off my bones, and even breathing felt weird."Well, look who finally decided to join us in the land of the living," Iris laughed. Maera sat in the corner of the room, sipping tea. "What was she doing here?" I thought to myself."How long have I been out?" I asked Iris"Two days," she said as she removed the water by the side of the bed."Two days?" I repeated"Three if you count the first night," Maera added."Where's Dylan?" I said as I rubbed my eyes. I suddenly remembered the fight; I remembered Audrey dragging me by my hair, then everything blacked out. "Oh my gosh, did I lose Dylan to Audrey?" I shouted as I stood up from the bed; I nearly fell too, but Iris caught me right in time."No

(Lyra's POV)The room was almost silent, and most of the elders stayed behind to hear what was going to happen next."With all due respect, do you know what you just did? You just cancelled a contract that has been in place for years because someone just got nicked with a knife.""Nicked?" Dylan said as he turned to face Patrick. "What did you just say?""I mean, Lyra is here; she's hale and healthy; the knife didn't kill her. I mean, you've not even been made Alpha officially yet, and you just ended years of progress made by your father over a girl fight.""Shut up, Patrick. Lyra is your niece, and you're still defending Audrey. You're fucking heartless. The next time you open your gutter mouth to shout at me, I will have your tongue." Patrick took a step back and looked at the elders behind him, but they all turned away. Then he turned back to us and bowed his head. "I'm sorry, Alpha. It won't happen again.""You should be. Now get out of my sight.""Yes, Alpha." Something about see

(Lyra's Pov.)"Hmm," I said as I pretended to think. Time was already running out; I barely had enough time to do my hair and rehearse my vows.Dylan frowned. "Hmm? You're actually thinking about this?" He held his hands to his chest. "Ouch, that hurt," I chuckled. "Dylan, please leave; I have to get ready.""Fine." He pouted and pulled me in for a hug. "Can you two stop? You're making me sick." Iris shouted from behind us.Dylan chuckled. "You know you have a mate, right?" Dylan said as he placed a soft kiss on my lips"I do, and I have to get back to him, but I have to get Lyra ready first," Iris said and pointed towards the door. "Now, leave before I kick you out myself.""Fine, I'm leaving just because Lyra asked me to first." He kissed my forehead one last time. "I'll see you downstairs," and then he left.The second the door closed, Iris turned to me. "Girl...""What?""You've got THE fucking alpha wrapped around your little bitchy finger," I laughed."No, I don't.""You do.""
