Filed To Story: The Perfect Luna by Marissa Gilbert
“It saddens me that the north is currently in such a pathetic state. I chose the Forgotten City as my target for a reason. To show you all that under the current ruler, no one is safe. He does not protect you! Not because he doesn’t want to protect you, but because he simply cannot offer you protection! I got into the ancient relic that was supposed to be sealed during the event, which was supposed to be highly protected.
Kai Fionnlagh couldn’t even protect his own future Luna! Savannah Stormhold slayed her compet*ition with ease and grace, worthy of a true Northern Queen! The North will only accept a Luna that is worthy! But this should also apply to the king! Yes, I am a White Bear! But before everything, I am a Northerner! And I want a safe kingdom for all of us! I want us to be what we used to be! Power! Power that has to be reckoned with!” Kai stood up from his chair at the head of the oval table and walked all the way down to where Kyle sat, closing his laptop.
To Savannah’s surprise, this was a much calmer reaction to what she expected from her chosen mate. She came up to him and placed her hand on his shoulder.
“He is just all words again,” she rea*s*sured him, rubbing her thumb in soothing circles.
She knew a part of him had to be furious, but when he pulled her into his embrace and wrapped his arms around her as if to hide her from the whole world, she realized what he was really worried about. You are becoming his Luna over my dead body,” he said, tucking his head into her neck and inhaling her bluebell scent.
“I am becoming his Luna over my dead body.” Savvy smiled softly and tilted her head to reach his soft l!ps. She brushed them with his tongue lightly, just like a wing of a b*tterfly might, and he lost it, crashing his l!ps into hers in a possessive k!ss.
“How about we come up with a plan with no dead bod*ies?” Gideon cleared his throat, turning away.
“And also, don’t forget you are not alone here.
I don’t want to see my little sister… all grown up too fast.” “Grow up yourself first, Gideon!” Savvy tore away from her man and raised her brow at her brother.
“I didn’t say a word when you brought Riannon to our house and supported you both along the way.”
“But he is not your mate.” Gideon reminded her quietly, yet everyone in the room heard his words.
“This is exactly the problem.”
“Yes, G, Zack Morgan is my mate.
Would you prefer me to go back to him? Maybe he will have time for me between all the orgies he is having on a daily basis!” Savannah snapped at her brother, and this time the silence in the room became awkward.
Kai stroked her cheek for a moment, looking at his woman with the adoration she deserved. But when his eyes switched to her sibling, he suddenly became cold and serious. Kai took his future Luna’s hand, lacing their fingers together and stood before the king of The Western Lycan Kingdom.
“I know I have made mistakes in the past, and some of them are partially my fault,” he started.
“Partially?!” Gideon scoffed while Riannon gave him a warning look.
“I apologise,” Kai said, and Savannah’s head snapped in his direction. She didn’t expect this.
“Not only for the trials and my mistakes this year but for the past ones too. I shouldn’t have tried to push you to be with a woman you don’t love and then get angry at you for it. I had never been in love before. I thought I was, but I really wasn’t. Not before Savannah. Yes, I don’t know how the true mate pull feels, but it should be pretty close to what I feel for Savannah. I love your sister. I will always love her. Nothing will ever change my mind. There will be no other woman for me. She is mine the same way I am hers. Everything I have belongs to her. She will be my Luna and my Queen, but she is already my soul, my heart and my best friend. And I will d*ie before I let anyone separate us!”
“Nice speech,” Gideon looked them both up and down with a stern face, then glanced at his own wife.
“I am still tempted to refuse you and let you deal with everything alone.” This time Savannah was the one to growl. Athena inside of her was fuming.
“I am afraid you didn’t understand me,” Kai smirked and wrapped his hand around his woman.
“I am not asking for your blessing. If you decide against the Alliance, so be it. I will deal with the white bears on my own. I’d even come to your rescue when the foxes attack you again for Savvy’s sake because whether you want this or not, we are going to be family. Savannah and I are going to be together. That’s our decision, not yours. And we made up our minds a while ago. You are invited for the Marking Ceremony, the wedding and the Coronation, by the way.” The Western King inhaled deeply through his nostrils and stood up.
“Are you really sure?” His eyes locked with his sister’s.
“I am,” she nodded, her l!ps curled into a delicate smile.
“I’m the one who is aware of what a mate pull is, and I can say that what I feel towards Kai is so much different from what I had with Zack.
It’s a much deeper connection that wasn’t built on simply wanting each other, although we didn’t have a problem with that either.” Gideon winced, but his sister continued, “We went through so many emotions in such a short period of time, and I really got to know him. I feel his love, Big Brother, and I reciprocated with my whole heart. Kai loves me and protects me; he’s ready to fulfil my every wish, he’s ready to fight for me if he has to, but most importantly, he respects me and treats me as his equal.”
“So far, you are the one who had to fight for him.”
“And I would do it again in a heartbeat if I have to,” Savannah announced firmly.
“Even if it’s with you. So, please, don’t make me.”
Gideon had his brows knitted together, which formed a little wrinkle over his nose, But in the end, he exhaled heavily and admitted, “I will never make you do anything. I will always be on your side, little sister.”
“Are you tearing up?” Riannon asked all of a sudden in disbelief, and all eyes darted at the Western King. He turned away quickly and cleared his throat.
“Of course not! It’s just something in my eye. The North is so dusty!” He walked back to his seat, and his face already had his usual stone expression. “So, what is the plan then?”
“We find where he’s hiding and strike first. Find Zack along the way and K*ll him as well,” Kai said coldly.
“But first, it’s my time for a speech. And then, right after that, Savannah and I will have our Royal Marking Ceremony.” Savvy’s heart fluttered. This time with excitement. She knew that she was ready for this now.
“People hate her now,” Gideon reminded them.
“It’s going to be hard.”
“I don’t care!” the Northerner cut him off.
“are over!” After a very long discussion, Savannah was exhausted, but there was no time to relax and drop one’s guard.
A lot still had to be done, and she was not going to risk her newfound happiness. For this, she was ready to do anything. And there was only one person who could help her now.
Savannah opened the door into the dark room, noticing at once that the curtains were still closed despite it being well past noon. Nothing changed in the last few weeks.
“Hey,” she checked if the owner of the chambers was there, but no response followed. However, she distinctly heard some movement inside.
“Elene,” Savvy decided to enter without invitation. Kai told her to leave his sister alone, to give her the space she needed. And as a result, Elene spent day after day alone in the darkness.
The news of Penelope’s death was devastating for her. She found the northern Princess in the corner behind her bed. Elene was sitting on the floor, hugging her knees, her golden hair undone and reaching the ground. The air in the room seemed stuffy.
