Rejected to be His Luna 137. Be prepared
[Zeve’s POV] Time flew by as my training upgraded every day. Amor taught me skills and Arki helped me refine them and fit them into my muscle memories. Arki and I had become good friends. Even so, he never talked informally to me and strangely, he hadn’t touched me once. Not even by mistake. He followed Amor’s orders gracefully. He was a true knight in all aspects. He told me how he was working to support his younger sister, who also wanted to become a knight. They lost their parents when he was too young and had to live in slums until he joined the knights. He inspired his sister, and she was adamant about following in his footsteps. Even though female candidates weren’t allowed to join the royal knights, he never told her she couldn’t. He always said that dreams are shown to people who have the ability to bring them to reality. All they need to do is believe in their dreams, work on it and allow their failures and patience to do the rest. The one who wins is not the one who
Rejected to be His Luna 138. Attack on the ship
[Zeve’s POV] “Luna!” Morfan dashed to me with Arki and the other knights. “Morfan! What’s going on?” I asked breathlessly. “We haven’t been able to identify their identity yet, luna. Your safety is our priority…” Morfan stopped speaking and tensed his brows, looking at the deck. Morfan looked at Arki and the other knights, who tensed their faces. “What happened?” I asked, annoyingly. “Luna. Alpha needs me on the front lines. I have to go. Knight! Protect luna at all costs…” “Alpha? Where is Amor? He is ok, right?” I asked, my heart pulsating wildly against my ribs. “Luna. Our alpha can’t be defeated that easily. Of course, he is alright. It’s just that he needs reinforcements to nullify the attack. We will get over this attack safely. Please evacuate with the royal family immediately,” Morfan said before dashing to the deck. Arki stepped closer to me. “I have got the boats ready for you and the royal family, your highness.” “Where is alpha?” I asked. “He is in the bow area
Rejected to be His Luna 139. Struggling through
[Zeve’s POV] I lunged at them, slashing my sword. Both of them jumped above me and landed behind me. They had no weapons and were fighting with bare talons. Last time they had swords, but this time their hands were deadlier than the swords. They could tear off Arki’s hands so easily. I had to be careful with those talons. The enemy was becoming stronger while I was waiting for a miracle to happen that would make me happy. Not even realising that happiness was not something made for me. That would be something I wouldn’t search for anymore in my life. Happiness was only an illusion, not the reality. ‘Stop listening to the song. It’s manipulating you.’ “I wish I could shut my ears and stop listening while… defending myself from these jerks!” I murmured, dodging the two as they attacked together. ‘Use me!’ No. Not you. Not now. The knights are returning. I sense their scent. I need my wolf’s strength, not yours. ‘Use the Enver sword skills.’ I widened my eyes when the voice w
Rejected to be His Luna 140. Don't die
[Zeve’s POV] Panting, I gulped, staring into his stoic eyes that were fixated on me. His hair and clothes fluttered violently with the sails as he effortlessly stood on the wooden supports, completely unbothered by the chaos on the ship. I shut my eyes as another strong squall tore past me, pushing the attackers further back. Did he see me use magic? How long has he been there? Damn it! I kept resisting this power all my life and just when I used it a little, out of everyone in this universe, Hikari had to be there. I gritted my teeth. What the heck should I do now? The only way for me was to jump into the sea, but then there was that creepy, alluring siren song. I knew it was another trap, probably the real trap. “Damn it!” I groaned, gritting my teeth. I was out of breath, and those fuckers wouldn’t stop coming. More than those attackers and the attack, I was worried about Hikari’s presence. He saw me use magic. He will expose me. Everything will be repeated. T
Rejected to be His Luna 141. Warm breeze in the sea
[Zeve’s POV] Hikari’s voice completely cut off the whispers I was hearing. Maybe I was seeing things because of asphyxiation. A white dragon that felt like a warm breeze snaked around my whole body as I hovered in the sea’s depth. Hikari? I reached out my hand to him. Hikari held my wrist that floated away from my body and yanked me. My body floated to him as he blanketed his arms around my waist and pulled me to his chest. His hands slid on my back and under my knees. His warmth blanketed my cold body. He was warm, serene, like a warm blanket near a bonfire on a snowy night. Something so surreal, as if the life I had given up on was returning to me. My heavy eyelids slowly shut as Hikari’s face blurred. It felt — safe. My eyes opened to a quiet sound of water dripping on a calm water surface, like nature played a lullaby. The water was the harp, and the winds were the fingers that tenderly plucked its strings. Hikari’s kimono coat was wrapped around my body while he c
Rejected to be His Luna 142. A curse called love
[Amor’s POV] I wiped off the sweats over my lips and nose. “No. She can’t… she’s ok. She has to be…” I mumbled. Maybe she evacuated with the others. Maybe I am overthinking. Yeah. She must have reached the shore by now. Yes. But why can’t I feel her scent? Even if she was on the shore, I should get her scent… I could barely breathe when all my senses were looking for her. Her scent. Her voice. Her breaths. Her heartbeats. Anything… anything that could help me find her. That could assure me she was safe. “Zeve!” I cried out. I kept calling out to her frantically, searching for her everywhere on the ship. I even looked among the dead, but soon shook off those grim thoughts. “ZEVE!” I roared. I tried to mind-link her. It failed. My frenzied steps halted as a thought hit. “Who created the firestorm?” It was then I met Arki and the other knights. They informed me about Zeve’s orders. I almost killed them for not following my orders, but I didn’t have time to waste on t
Rejected to be His Luna 143. I can't be your luna
[Amor’s POV] Lucella checked on Zeve. She said that Zeve wasn’t in a condition to travel and we should stop by the seaside palace near the harbor. Everyone was tired and needed rest. I myself was not in a condition to carry out a journey to the capital smoothly. With Zeve still unconscious, I wasn’t feeling good about nothing at all. I knew she created the firestorm and maybe the magic took a toll on her body like any other power. On that she drowned and I don’t know what manipulating voice Hikari was talking about, but it surely contributed to Zeve’s current state. Our ship reached the shore. I ordered a royal cremation of the dead through mind-link. The royal family was already in the palace, resting. All the excitement had turned into a grim atmosphere. Everyone was recovering from the attack. We were still on the ship. I reluctantly looked around the ship matters and the report on the death of the knights, the injured, and the survivors. Once Lucella had checked on Zev
Rejected to be His Luna 144. You are my happiness
[Amor’s POV] Her words fell on me like a downpour in a flood-sick city. I was planning to tell her about what happened between me and Hikari. About the curse. But I didn’t know what to say anymore. I licked my lips — no — biting them until the corner of my lips started bleeding. “Amor… blood…” she reached out to touch my lips, but I stepped back, still biting on my lips. Should I fall on my knees and beg her to never leave me? To keep on loving me even when I wouldn’t return her love, even when I wanted to. But even if I was dying, I would never beg to be respected, loved, or needed. Everything was going back to how it was before Zeve came into my life. So be it! The reason her words were like shards of shattering glass was because I had expected too much from her, more than she could give me. It wasn’t her fault, but mine to expect anything at all. Expectations? I am Amor Blaze. I don’t expect; I get what I want. But often we expect the most from the person we expect nothi
