Novel & Cerita Eighth Born Luna

I lead her to her chair and help her to sit down before returning my gaze to the sea of eyes in front of me, time to burst their bubbles. “I shouldn’t be doing this because it is not necessary but I guess I should so we won’t have any kind of problems in the future. I am sure most of you have heard by now and yes it is right, Natalia is back to take her rightful place beside me and my mate and the new Luna of our pack” Their suprised eyes widen more, I guess they were not expecting that much. “What about Luna Michelle?” Someone asks from the crowd and my gaze darkens, that was a name I never want to hear again.

She tells me and I nod my head. “Remember Lachlan went to see Iannis well it turns out that they have another child that no one knows about a girl named Luna. She's a shifter, Morana told Lachlan that Iannis found her in the woods in his way back home and he brought her to the house. Her and Kat took the baby to the police station to find out if anyone was looking for her but there was no one. So they decided to raise her as their own. Now there was a reason the little girl stood out to Lachlan apart from the fact that she was a shifter, she had violet eyes, the Kelly violet eyes.” Lena says and I'm shocked. She's right, only shifters born into the Kelly line have those color of eyes, our fa

We learned, too late, that divine gifts are not ours to breed like hounds. Luna’s pulse roared in her ears. The words seemed to vibrate under her fingertips. We tried to bind it again. To trap the power in chosen heirs. The Moon laughed. She poured it into an omega child instead. A runt. A babe born in the wrong den, to the wrong parents, at the wrong time. She cracked the birthing stone when she cried. Luna sucked in a breath. That was not about her. Could not be. This was centuries old.

My heart pounded in my chest too rapidly and agitatedly, as though it was afraid of something I couldn't yet identify. I barely recognized the girl staring back at me as I sat in front of the shiny bronze mirror. Moonflowers, which glowed dimly in the sunlight, were intertwined with silver hair that coiled into elaborate braids. A smile that would not stay on my lips trembled. The day I would stand next to Alpha Kael as his Luna, mate, and queen was the day every girl had dreamed of.

I close his door quietly and walk down the hall to check on Luna and Elena, unable to sleep until I've confirmed all three children are safe even though we haven't faced serious threats in years. Luna is thirteen and has my gift for reading people, though hers manifests differently through empathic abilities that let her sense lies and manipulation with accuracy that makes her invaluable in negotiations. But it also isolates her from other children her age who do not understand why she always knows when they are being dishonest or hiding something. She sits in her room reading by lamplight despite the late hour, and I see myself in her love of knowledge and careful observation of the world a

the alpha replied with a fake frown. “I want to hear the story of the moon goddess, pretty please with a cherry on top.” “The moon goddess” he started his voice soft but full of weight. Lily listened with rapt attention. “is the goddess of justice, of those whose lives are cut short by betrayal or foul play on a full moon. She gives rebirth only on the night of the new moon when her light is hidden from the world.” Lily had always found his words comforting. It was the one story that always felt true. Her father had told her the Moon Goddess was a protector, but she was also just. She would bring back only the purest souls, those who had been wronged and taken too soon.

Rizz made me harden my heart. “Sorry for what?! Did you do anything to me?” I wanted to use reverse psychology on Charlotte. My lips formed into a pout. Charlotte smiled ….and gradually, her smile formed into a grin. “You know I'm still your Luna. You're talking to your Luna with disrespect.” “Luna my foot!” Rizz rebelled. “Tell her to go on her knees and apologize to you. Better still, she can make you queen of the five kingdoms. That's a better offer.”

Annoyed, Luna Viviana slammed the door on the guards' face and went back to bed. Grrrr! She needs to leave the mansion and find her husband's mistress and kill her! She wouldn't accept a divorce from her husband! Never! Now that she is pregnant with the heir of the Savage Howl Pack, she will fight for her throne. She is the only Luna in their pack, and it will remain that way until she dies.

I could tell with one hundred percent certainty none of these women were that way. My father’s right hand man and Beta, a man named Cooper, had pulled me aside one day to tell me about a potential opportunity to find a mate. I had been invited to join the cast of some show called Luna’s Choice. At first, I brushed it aside. I wanted no part in something like that. There was no way any of the contestants on the show would make for a good Luna.

It wasn’t wolfsbane toxin, no—but I sensed what it was without having to see it. Poison. “Now. We can do this the easy way or the hard way, Ellie. I don’t care which one you pick, but you will pick.” She said it like she was discussing the weather. “And tonight, this finally ends. After too many years living under your pathetic little shadow, I’m finally saying goodbye. And I’m stepping into my rightful place—not just as Luna, but Luna Queen, by Dominic’s side.” I glanced at the pouch. Then at the door behind her, which was slowly, silently, cracking open.
