LOGINLevante,The room was quiet except for the heavy breathing of Countess Brighton. Her hands shook against the cold floor. Her face turned pale as she realized that she had fooled everyone for years, but it would all end tonight.My nails drummed against the armrest while I waited for her to speak. When she remained silent even after two full minutes, I raised my hand. Two guards moved at once. Their sharp boots struck the floor, making everyone flinch.Countess Brighton's head snapped up. She saw the two guards reaching for her arms."What? What are you doing? You cannot touch me. I am a she-lycan. It is illegal," she protested."You are a criminal under my jurisdiction, Countess Brighton," my voice cut through the tension, making her freeze. "And in my jurisdiction, a criminal has no gender."She froze, her eyes widening in terror. Cold sweat beaded on her forehead. She glanced desperately at Count Brighton and then at Earnest, searching for anyone who might help her change the course
Levante,I stayed until night fell and Serenity finally fell asleep after sulking about me not leaving her side. She was weak and pale, yet the resilience in her eyes was unbreakable.Guilt gnawed at me for snapping at her. Serenity had grown up in a world shaped by the abuse of power and unfair treatment. To them, even looking at a noble was a crime. They barely dared lift their eyes, face a noble, or defend themselves. Layer after layer of trauma, labeled the child of sin, abandoned by everyone, and now betrayed by my own sister.I could not fathom how much she suffered inside. I wished I could take away some of her pain. I used to curse my fate, wondering why I was so unlucky. Now I knew I had been whining about a life that gave me everything."Your Highness. The guests are still waiting for you!" Butler Earnest glanced at Serenity’s pale face, looking concerned.I nodded and placed some desserts and snacks on the table. "Let’s go!" I said, walking out of the room.Right after Ser
Lumina had to be taken to the ER right after Levante left her with a broken neck and wounded jaws. Even her people, who were supposed to protect her, couldn't move from where they were standing.Levante had become the rule maker of the Lycan Kingdom because of his unbiased rulings. To him, if the King himself committed a crime, Levante would still carry out the punishment.Seeing how badly he had injured his own sister, the Brighton family stood frozen. They had been hoping to meet their future son-in-law, but instead they witnessed his ruthless protectiveness toward the woman who might become the daughter they had abandoned. It left them stunned.Countess Brighton, who never thought her past would crawl out of the grave and appear before her, looked like she had seen a ghost. She could barely speak.Belinda, however, noticed her mother's panic and her father's rage toward her mother.After the guards took Lumina away, they returned to her private room. Countess Brighton kept shaking
Serenity,"What's wrong with you?"For the first time since we met, Levante's voice rose with frustration and disappointment. He placed me on the bed and let the female healer tend to my wounds, standing by my side the whole time. But eventually he could not hold back."I have told you countless times. Lumina isn't a good person. She doesn't care if anyone dies as long as she gets what she wants. Why did you leave the room right after I left? Do you have any idea how scared I was?"I lowered my head, my mind still spinning. "Serenity!" His voice dropped, sending a tremble through me. "Don't disappoint me.""I am sorry.""For what?""Not listening to you."Levante rubbed his forehead. "Serenity, I don't want you following people around just because they might help with something. I know you are trying to find a solution for my curse, but this is not the way. Can you, at least once, fight for yourself instead of thinking only about me?"I looked up at him, the words slipping out before
Serenity,The entire room became quiet. Lumina's expression shifted immediately, but it remained unreadable. She might not have expected me to retaliate.I looked at the woman who might possibly be my mother. Or perhaps her husband was the one. Whoever it was, I did not care.I was my father's daughter. I was Redwolf's daughter.My body moved before my mind could catch up. I met her eyes, my expression colder than ice."I raised myself. I treated my own wounds. I grew up alone. Who gave you the right to insult me?"Countess Brighton looked shocked as I walked closer. She was taller than me and more beautiful than me, but she had a nasty mouth.She tried to step back. Something flickered behind her eyes."Who told you that I am your daughter? Even if I was, I would spit on your grave and stomp on it until the world ends. If you dare to insult me or my body once again, I swear on whatever power created me, not your Moon Goddess, that I will rip that mouth apart."Everyone froze. My eyes
Serenity, "Was it a joke?" I called out, my voice dropping cold. "I don't appreciate this kind of joke, Princess Lumina!" Lumina's eyes widened for a brief second as she registered the lack of emotion in my tone. She had seen me as gullible and quiet, but she had gone too far by claiming I was someone's half-sister, especially a female lycan. "That's true, Your Highness. Why did you say something like this?" Countess Brighton asked. A faint tremor ran through her voice. "Our Belinda is the only child." A mischievous yet mysterious grin played on Lumina's lips, as if she were savoring the moment. "Unfortunately, I don't like liars. Countess Brighton and Count Brighton, I have chosen your daughter as the candidate for my brother's Luna. Since she will be prepared for my brother, I don't want any scandal attached to her." The couple swallowed hard. Lumina's words carried a manipulative edge. They were clearly lycans. What was she thinking by stirring up trouble for me? I would alr
Levante,Two hundred years ago, when the Lycans ruled the world of Werewolves, forcing the entire earth to kneel and beg for their mercy, my grandfather, the late Lycan King, captured countless women and she-wolves to build his own harem.On a full moon night, while the Kingdom of Werewolves remain
Serenity, I had been bullied since I could remember the beginning of my life. I used to cry in my Dad's arms, asking why I had to be so heavy, so slow and so ugly. Why nobody ever acknowledged me as their friend, why I was always the one left out, always the one whispered about. But Dad used to
Serenity, "Are you alright?" Sunya, one of the Luna's personal servants, held out a candy toward me. "Here, take it before your blood sugar drops again." I nodded quietly before taking it, my fingers brushing against hers for a brief second, warm and steady. I unwrapped it and shoved it into my m
Serenity Redwolf, Twenty years ago, In a noble family, two daughters were born. One was the perfect definition of beauty; every strand of hair seemed blessed with a golden touch, her eyes were blue like the ocean, and her cries sounded like the melody of a new spring.
