INICIAR SESIÓNLUCIAN'S POVI stormed up the stairs, my blood boiling and my fists clenched at my sides.To say I was pissed was an understatement but I couldn't bring myself to be angry at her. It wasn't her fault that she lost her memory and doesn't remember me. It was a result of my carelessness and I was suffering the consequences.I was so lost in my thoughts that I almost collided with Xavier as he rounded the corner."Lucian." He stopped, taking in my expression. "What happened? You look like you're about to kill someone.""It's Selena's." I breathed heavily. "She's back and she's demanding to see Caius. She won't listen to anyone."Xavier's brow furrowed. "Didn't you say you would explain everything to her?""I was planning to but she doesn't want to hear anything from me." I ran a hand through my hair, tugging at the roots. "Ever since the kiss, she's been avoiding me like I'm a plague. I'm her mate for God's sake. Why did she have to remember only Caius?” I raised my voice.Xavier was quie
RAVENA'S POVThe view from the window of the hotel room was beautiful. I'd heard so much about how beautiful Ardyth was and finally seeing it for myself, I concluded that they were not overexaggerating.After leaving Lunaroria, I had chosen to stay at that particular hotel because it was the closest to the Royal Palace of Ardyth. My next target.I looked down at the Lunaroria gemstone in my hand. Its warm golden light pulsed gently, like a heartbeat. A smile spread across my face. “One down. One to go.”Three weeks has passed since I left Lunaroria to hide here and the news of what happened to all the Umbraeth citizens in Lunaroria had reached me. My identity had been exposed with Alpha Mark himself confirming to the world that I was not his daughter.Like I actually care.I'd never wanted to be Queen of Lunaroria anyway. It was just a means to an end. A stepping stone to something much, much bigger which I was already so close to achieving.The coven queen had been furious. Her mess
SELENA'S POVAs soon as we alighted from the plane in Lunaroria airport, the only thing running through my mind was seeing Caius.Though I was still battling with the guilt of kissing Lucian and I didn't know if I would have the courage to tell Caius the truth.I shook my head as I sat in car with Darcy while the priestess was in another car behind ours. I should focus on Caius first. He must have had a hard time taking care of the situation in Lunaroria.My mind would only be calm when I see that he's okay.The car stopped at the main entrance of the palace and I didn't wait before opening the door and stepping out.I ignored the guards and servants greeting me as I rushed inside."Selena, wait," Darcy's voice reached my ears but I didn't stop.Rowan was walking toward me as soon as I crossed the threshold. “Selena, be careful. You shouldn't be running like that in your condition.” “Where's Caius? Is he okay?” I asked as I stopped in front of him. “I need to see him.”“Selena, relax
LUCIAN'S POVI stood there, staring at my brother, and for the first time, I truly saw him. The hatred in his eyes wasn't the result of some witch's compulsion or dark magic. It was real and had been festering inside him for years.The witch never manipulated Caius into turning against me. She only used what was already there.She'd simply given him the tools to act on what he already felt. The ambition, jealousy and hatred toward me. All of it had been there, hiding beneath the surface of our brotherhood.I looked deep into Caius's eyes, searching for any trace of the brother I'd grown up with. The one who'd taught me to ride. The one who'd promised to always stand by me and make Lunaroria a better Kingdom.But there was nothing there. Just pure, unadulterated hatred."Caius…" My voice came out rough, barely above a whisper. "I had no idea about any of this. I never knew you felt this way or that Mom tried to change the succession rule. You should have just talked to me. We could hav
LUCIAN'S POV “This is really frustrating.” Rowan barged into my study. “How are we supposed to find someone we don't even recognise?” I was standing by my window, staring outside. A sigh escaped my lips as I turned to him. “I'm not sure what to do anymore.”“I'm very pissed at this whole situation,” he continued. “She could even be in front of us and we won't know it's her because we never got to see what she looks like. We only knew her with Elira's face.”“So what do we do? Give up?” My eyes bored into his. “Caius is still under her control. We have no idea what she might make him do. I have to kill one of them to break the bond and it's definitely not my brother.”He sat down in front of my desk. “I understand you, Prince Lucian. But there's no hope in finding the witch since we don't know what she looks like and if Caius remains in this state, the only solution is for you to take the throne and lead the people of Lunaroria.”“No, I can't let that happen.” I shook my head. “Caius
LUCIAN'S POV After the meeting, I retreated to my study. I paced back and forth, my hands clasped behind my back, my mind racing. We'd searched everywhere. Every room, every corridor, every hidden passage we knew about. There was no trace of Elira.But she has to be somewhere. The witch is still wearing her face. That means the real Elira is still alive somewhere.But where?Mark stirred in my mind. ‘The witch is powerful. She wouldn't have hidden her somewhere ordinary. She would have used magic. Something that would keep her hidden from ordinary eyes.’I stopped when his words hit me. ‘That means I need to look with extraordinary eyes. My seer ability.’If they could see into the future, then they should be able to see what others couldn't see.Without wasting time, I walked out of my room and headed straight to Elira's room. Since we took back Lunaroria, I hadn't stepped my foot into the room.I took a deep breath and walked into the room. My eyes scanned everything. The walls, fl
SELENA’S POV"Where am I?" Darkness closed in on me, darkness that did not end, and a chill fog crept around my feet like outstretched fingers. I moved slowly, but the ground I walked upon was not solid, as if I walked upon space."Aya?" I tried to summon my wolf but i got nothing in response.My
SELENA'S POVMy face glowing with enthusiasm mirrored back at me as I sat in front of my dressing table. My rosy cheeks were covered in blush and my lips were red with lipstick with my blue eyes filled with excitement. I blew out my tightly coiled black hair once more, trying to keep back the fl
SELENA’S POV"Where in the hell am I?"Woke up to light streaming through windows. Sheets too soft and I could feel that the bed wasn’t mine. Then the memories of the previous night started flooding in; Caius rejection, Daniel trying to force me into his car and then…My eyes widened in horrorNo.
LUCIAN’S POV"He is a fucking moron." I growled, slamming the door behind me as I walked into my home. I was furious because Caius was making a big mistake. I started walking back and forth, like a crazed beast. My fists were constantly curled and then released and my heart was seething with anger
