The luna trials Novels & Stories

“That the eastern wall is the worst place to be cornered.” “That’s true.” “That paralytic compounds need at least sixty seconds of contact to work through skin absorption.” “Also true.” “That there have been nine recorded Luna trials in four hundred years, and five of them ended with the challenger winning.” I met his eyes. “Which means the Luna being challenged won four times.” Something flickered across his face. “Less than half.” “Less than half,” I agreed. “But not zero.”

Remembering how I had cast my pride aside to secure their survival, disgust twisted their faces. "If our Luna has to get down on her knees and kowtow for medicine, I'd rather just die of illness!" someone spat. "If it weren't for Miss Elena that time, we really would have died! A weak she-wolf like Sheilah doesn't deserve to be Luna!" No! That's not how it happened! Back then, I had stood before the Black Forest pack gates and endured a brutal, bloody trial by combat just to win those herbs. I had collapsed from sheer exhaustion after the duel, only for Elena to swoop in and steal my credit yet again.

"You two know each other?" Calhoun stated more than asked. "Funny." "There's nothing funny about this, Alpha Calhoun." Lady Maddie said. "This girl has-" "Be careful," Calhoun warned, his demeanor getting serious. "She's not just any girl but the future Luna of the guardian pack." The lady swallowed what she had to say. "Lady Maddie must be replaced, I don't want my dear to feel uncomfortable. Leave." Calhoun ordered.

I say and the sprites rush off to make some biscuits or rolls for the pack. “Don’t say anything to your Luna. She tried hard to make this meal for us, wanting to comfort all of us in our grief. Her efforts may not have been as effective as she’d hoped, but her heart was in the right place,” I say, taking my bowl and walking to a table.

They were talking with each other as I looked down at the huge glass case filled with pastries of all kinds and flavours lined behind, making my mouth water. " Oh and this must be the new Luna everyone was talking about, welcome to my shop Luna" She smiled warmly and I smiled back. "Have you tried pastries before Rose?" Stella asked me, catching me eyeing the pastries hungrily. I shook my head no, "only people who finish Alpha's tasks get pastries, I never had any before" I said. They looked taken aback and looked at one another with worried looks, "Want to try it now?" Avery asked and I nodded and looked at the various options to choose from but not sure what to pick.

, he smiled at me and gave me the invitation. “She is not Luna.”, Scarlett said. “Show some respect!”, Ethan’s voice made her look down. “W-who is Luna?”, I asked. “That is something you should ask Caleb.”, Ethan replied. I looked at him confused but he just smiled at me. “I don’t accept it!”, Scarlett said and left without a word. “Did I do something?”, I asked a little scared of her sudden outburst. “No, you didn’t.”, Ethan said and asked me to follow him.

Orion sighs, looking guiltily between us. I quickly open my envelope, scanning the details of the little card inside. As usual, it’s abrupt. The Trial for the Bottom Contestants will be held Tomorrow at Noon. All Must Attend. I flick my eyes up at Orion as I hold the card out where Anton can see it. “Laila and I are still safe from elimination?” “You are,” he says, nodding and holding my gaze. “What’s the deal with the whole top and bottom thing, anyway?” Anton asks. “Why did you start doing that?”

“ need any thing “ I asked as she started to look tired. “ maybe some juice or water “ mea said as I hold her hand and she smiled at me. “ right away my queen “ as I said that and kissed her hands she started to blush which was really cute . I smiled and walked out. I walked to one of the nurses and asked where the vending machine was, “around the corner, to your left” she said “ thanks “ I replied “ no problem, alpha” she said bowing . I know I was supposed to be next in line but, now mea was there alpha but I guess they can’t call me Luna. I laughed to my self Turing the corner and found what I was looking for.

“Why don’t you bring her to the festival, Uncle?” Julian asked as she watched her uncle look devastated. It had been a month since the two proclaimed Luna had given birth. “Festival?” “It’s happening in the city later this night,” Julian jumped off the stairs and looked at Adhler. She sighed at him, “You look like you need the break too, I will watch over your son for you two,” “You just wanted him for yourself, don’t make me laugh, Julian,” the princess rolled her eyes.

Reid said, standing up and pulling me with him so I was forced to stand at his side, his arm still locked around my waist. "We will settle this the old way. We will hold the Luna Trials." A collective gasp rippled through the room. Mira’s fork clattered against her plate. "The Trials?" Luna Selene asked, her eyes narrowing. "Reid, those haven't been invoked in three generations. They are brutal. They are meant to test the limit of a female's strength, cunning, and spirit." "And Mira will participate," Reid continued, his gaze dropping to me, his eyes burning with a dark light. "Along with any other woman who thinks she is fit to lead this pack. Including Rayne."
