The Perfect Luna by Marissa Gilbert

They were walking in silence and Kai wanted to do more for her. He didn’t even know why. He couldn’t explain it to himself. But she looked worried and it made him unsettled too. “So, look here,” he showed her the back door that even servants used from time to time. He remembered it well…

“Not this time,” Savvy gave her the most charming smile. “What do you mean? I’d never…” she started talking but cut herself off in the middle of it, realising what the westerner meant. She was talking about the instructions she sent to her room to try and get rid of her quickly. “Don*t worry about…

“Nice try!” she narrowed her eds at him. “As if king Kai’s closest man wouldn’t be checking everyone who was arriving for those stupid Luna Trials.” Kai swallowed. His Beta and Gamma were probably doing this all night and they would know who she was. It all went a bit too far. He had to…

“Exactly. So, waiting a few more weeks wouldn’t make a big difference.” Kai chuckled, and the princess clenched her fists. “Just wait until I am done, and then maybe I will agree to that alliance.” He couldn’t even hide his smirk when he declared this.
