HUNTER'S POVWe exchanged glances, aware of the new dynamics between us. However, I felt quite uncomfortable with this duty, and an idea popped into my mind.
HUNTER'S POV
HUNTER'S POV“How did you know... about Luna's choice?” I dared to ask, suspicious of the extent of Ignis's knowledge.
I was in the dining room of my house, staring at Hunter with a mix of shock and disbelief. Just moments ago, he had revealed that I was chosen as his Luna by the Moon Goddess, a truth I had been waiting for six long years, since that fateful coronation ceremony. However, the revelation was wrapped in an even more painful plot: Hunter lied and chose Zora, the daughter of Alpha King Garnet.
Kane, now understanding the gesture, timidly shook her hand. “I'm Kane Silver.” Ignis smiled, revealing a sparkle in her eyes. “Beautiful name, Kane. Are you traveling with your family?” Kane nodded, easing up a bit with Ignis's welcoming presence. “Yes, I'm with my older brothers, Cassian and Dorian.” Ignis nodded in understanding. “Must be a challenging journey for you. Where are you headed?” Kane nodded. “Yes, we're heading to Seattle.” Ignis looked intrigued. “Seattle? What a coincidence. I'm headed there too. Business, you know.” Kane gave her a curious look. “What do you do?” Ignis tilted her head, maintaining the mystery. “Something rather peculiar. Let's just say I'm in search of something important.” *** While Kane stayed outside and Dorian headed to the bathroom, the re
My intervention cut through the heavy air: “Well, I think we better start eating before the food gets cold.”As we sat down to share the meal, silence prevailed. My eyes were fixed on the food in front of me, but my mind was restless. Hunter, beside me, remained reserved, watching with keen eyes every gesture around the table.Caleb glanced at both of us with an enigmatic smile, breaking the silence. “Life is truly full of surprises, isn't it?”Looks exchanged between Hunter and me, both curious about what Caleb had in mind. Hunter, with his usually serious expression, didn't take long to ask, “What do you mean, Caleb?”Caleb tilted his head, maintaining his intriguing smile. “I've always pictured you two together, like a couple. Hunter, the Alpha King, and Fierce, his Luna.”My eyes narrowed. What was Caleb insinuating? Hunter, in turn, stared at Caleb, awaiting an explanation.Caleb didn't he
I hastily got out of bed, bare feet touching the cold floor. The need to act, to confront this revelation, pulsed through my veins. I opened my bedroom door and faced Hunter's imposing figure in the hallway, as if he had felt the same urgency as me.“What are you doing here?” I asked, my voice filled with agitation. Hunter stared at me with a grave expression, as if carrying a burden on his shoulders. “I remembered whose scent was in your house, Fierce. I came to warn you.”My eyes met his, and my mind connected the dots. “You're talking about the scent of...”He nodded. “Jeff.”The words hit me like stones, confirming my suspicions. Jeff, the werewolf who once belonged to our pack, was now implicated in the disappearance of my children.A shiver ran down my spine as I processed the information. “You felt it too?”
The road stretched ahead as Ignis drove towards Seattle, fulfilling the agreement made with the boys. The gentle hum of the engine filled the car's interior, and occasional silence was interrupted only by Kane's soft snoring, deeply asleep in the back seat.Dorian, resting on Cassian's shoulder, was on the verge of succumbing to sleep, while Cassian resisted, staying alert. Skepticism regarding Ignis' intentions still hung in the air, like a dark cloud on a starry night.Ignis glanced at Cassian through the rearview mirror and broke the silence. “You can sleep if you want, Cassian.”Cassian, with his cautious demeanor, replied, “I'm not sleepy.”Ignis smiled, observing the dynamics between the brothers. “Doesn't seem like you're wide awake.”Cassian sighed, finally giving in. “I'm a bit tired, that's all.”Ignis
