Second Chance Luna Chapter 54: A Royal Secret
PRIEST'S POV. I awake at the first crow of the cock to prepare for the meeting at the palace. I wonder what it is going to be like, truly. Since the spirits have refused to speak to me, I can no longer see far and beyond like I used to, I am left to predict things with my half-baked wits and I’m now reduced to “wondering” like the rest of the pack instead of “knowing” like I used to. I slick my hair back with saliva and hope that it stays in place but it doesn’t so I just give up. No one is going to be looking at me anyway. That’s one thing about being a priest; if you’re not passing on a message, no one sees you, it’s like you’re invincible. If they don’t have a problem to solve, you’re practically useless to them. So unless you’re solving a problem or being a mouthpiece of the goddess, you can not be seen. Invincibility has kind of become kind of my superpower these past few days. I grab everything that I think is necessary before making my way to the Palace. It would have been
Second Chance Luna Chapter 55: Funeral Plans
NIKOLAI'S POV. These old men are starting to get on my nerves with all these questions about how my father died. Why do they want to know? To thank who did it? Because we both know they’re not asking because they care, they’re just curious. My father never really respected them or their opinions and I know they wanted him gone so what is this hypocritical behaviour they’re exhibiting? “The burial should take place immediately.” The eldest says and I couldn’t agree more. He’s the first to say something reasonable since the start of this meeting. The priest looks like he’d rather be anywhere but here, I guess he’s not a big fan of the elders either. “Are there any special rites of passage that we should be performing?” They ask the priest and he shakes his head sideways. “It will be done in the normal way.” He answers and I begin to wonder why the spirits are still silent. I used to think that the day my father dies, it’s going to be a big deal and we’re going to have to perform a
Second Chance Luna Chapter 56: Leap of Faith
NIKIOAI'S POV. “I’m not going with Sherry and that is final.” I say to Winter and leave the room without slamming the door. I can’t believe she can still say a thing like this after everything I just told her. I don’t want Sherry, I want her and if she can’t go with me to the funeral, then that’s fine. I don’t mind going alone. We still have plenty of other events to attend together. “Nikolai” she calls after me but I don’t reply or even look back. I should just leave and we can talk about it when I get back. I don’t want to say anything I might regret and not be able to take back. I inform the chief of staff, Mrs. Hyacinth about the funeral and she does the rest. She’s the most capable woman I know, I wonder how my father was able to keep her for so long after mother died. My mother was the one who brought Hyacinth to our house to work as a maid, my father was very skeptical about her eye color, he always referred to her as a witch but she never seem to mind my father’s disres
Second Chance Luna Chapter 57: Why Are Your Pupils Red?
HYACINTH'S POV.I’ve been in this house for a very very long time and I have to say this is the first time that I actually enjoy being here, since the queen died that is. All the king's other wives or as I like to call them; extra wives are gone and so is the king. Living in this house for as long as I have was certainly not an easy task. It was practically torture but I had to stay, not because like torture but because I had to fulfil my promise to the late queen. She was the only person that treated me like a person when everyone else considered me an animal. She brought me into her home regardless of what her husband and everyone thought, she dedicated her time and energy to training me on how to do things that I never imagined I could. How could I not fulfill her wish? It was a very small price to pay for everything she had done for me. She practically saved my life, so I took care of the prince like he was my own and now that he’s all grown up fully capable of taking care of h
Second Chance Luna Chapter 58: You Are My Dirt
WINTER'S POV. “I love you too.” I say to Nikolai and he kisses the top of my nose. He hasn’t been able to contain his excitement since I agreed to attend his coronation and I’m really glad I talked to the scary woman who doesn’t seem so scary anymore and whose name I now know is Hyacinth. She seems to care a lot about Nikolai as much as he cares about her too. I guess she’s more than just a maid to him. She’s like his guardian. I can’t stop thinking about what she said about his mother accepting me before she even knew me. It makes me curious as to what kind of person she was. Nikolai never talks about her. When I hear the sound of the door click as Nikolai shuts it, I lay down on the bed and drown myself in my own thoughts. I’ve come a long way since I arrived in this pack, this body. I remember being enslaved by the very man I can’t do without right now. Life works in very mysterious ways, my life especially. The knob twists and the door creaks open, I sit up to see who it is
Second Chance Luna Chapter 59: An Acquatic Werewolf
NIKOLAI'S POV. Winter sneezes for the third time in a row and I can’t stop blowing snot out of my nose, It’s a disaster. The ceremony is in just a few hours and I plan to introduce Winter to the pack tomorrow as well but if I was given a chance to start the day all over, I’ll make the exact same choices and I wouldn’t change a thing. I had fun with Winter today. A lot of fun. The feel of the water against my skin was electric and I couldn’t even tell if it was because it was cold or because Winter was in the water with me and her clothes stuck to her body like a second skin hugging all her curves and making her features more. . . .prominent. Her hair draped over her shoulders like she was the goddess of the goddamn ocean and maybe it was just me but I think she illuminated in the water. We played in the water for quite a while before finding our way back up. We kept splashing water on each other like children and competing with each other who could hold their breath under the wa
Second Chance Luna Chapter 60: Alpha Nikolai's Wish
NKOLAI'S POV.“This is the woman that I intend to marry.” I say pointing at Winter and showing her off to the people. They begin murmur to each other and the elders are in obvious shock.“Yes, I know.” I continue. “She’s not the woman from the mating ceremony, but if my father’s death has taught me anything; it’s to do what you want to do and not hold back on single thing.” I say and they’re no longer murmuring, I think they are starting to agree with me.“I’ve loved Winter since the first time I set eyes on her and the reason I went through with the mating ceremony is because my father didn’t approve of Winter but on the last day we saw each other, he finally approved. I was wondering why he did that in the middle of the ceremony. If only I knew he was going to die.” I shed a tear and Winter was quick to wrap her arms around me. I gained the people’s sympathy too.“As the new Alpha, my first wish is that my people approve of my mate. It’s all I ask.”The entire pack went silent. If t
Second Chance Luna Chapter 61: How Weird Could It Be?
NIKOLAI'S POV.They did return at mid day just not with the kind of fresh ideas I had hoped for. They just came back the same way they left, so I guess they weren’t sleep deprived, they’re just old. When I reached home I couldn’t sleep so I started to look through my father's office and I found a lot of documents, most of them were useless and the rest of them were useless as well. My father was not very skilled when it came to documentation, I see that now but I did find his journal. It feels weird reading his personal writings and I don’t think I want to go through it either but something caught my eye. My father had properties stashed somewhere in this palace. I guess my secret place is not the only ‘secret place' in this palace.His descriptions were everything but descriptive and it was not very useful but I still managed to find my way to his treasure cave. When I thought I was lost, I listened for hollows within the walls. The passage was through a portrait of himself on the
