He couldn't bear to continue hearing her sobs that he could hear even from outside of the room so he could only grit his teeth as he walked away, going outside of the Herves palace." Alpha?" Neil called, surprised that the man had came out so soon. Wasn't the Luna in heat....or...the Alpha didn't...? His thoughts trailed off and the silver haired man could clearly see all his Beta's thought but neither did he say a word." What are you still doing here?" River asked, lowering his majestic self on the pavement while Neil immediately sat besides him." I really wasn't waiting for you to come back outside so I don't really know why I was waiting." Neil laughed." I heard what happened to her. What have you done about it so far?" The Alpha asked, his tone low. He wasn't even looking at Lair, his eyes were just looking straight into the morning darkness. " Lair made me know that my father sent a message so they obviously now know about Naina over there. Even if my father accepts her

The sunlight pierced into her eyes again and she finally hissed, rolling around on the bed before she lazily rose but as she did, a surprise scream left her mouth." Marianne!" The Luna yelled in shock and surprise while the other lady beamed, laughing at the same time at the Luna's reaction." Good morning, Luna dear." Marianne smiled lovingly and Estelle sighed before slowly hugging the woman." You have a lot of explaining to do and I also have a lot to complain about but that'll be later. Where have you been?" Estelle asked, frowning as she disengaged from the hug.Marianne looked taken aback. " River didn't mention anything to you?" She asked and Estelle sat silent for a while before she hissed." He didn't. As expected of him, of course." She hissed, a little tinge of anger lacing her voice." We'll talk later, Luna. Let's get ready for the day." Marianne smiled but Estelle only rolled her eyes which the woman saw and laughed again." I sure won't be leaving you halfway today

The day had arrived and almost everyone were excited for the hunting game that was going to take place later in the evening. Mostly the helpers, were in two groups on who would later stand out as the winner of the game. Some who had known Kaileyn to be the holder of the winner title for the hunting game were on one side and some that had doubted her this time and were on the Luna's side were on the other side. It was the full moon the next day and the ladies would have to be back with each of their games by dawn on which a winner would be chosen and finally, in the night of the full moon, they'd freely celebrate." Everyone's saying he did that because of her. I mean, I've never heard about–" Alisha was saying but Kaileyn cut her off with a sarcastic look. " And aren't you going to your pack before evening? Because if I remember, your father does almost the same thing River does here so it's the hunting festival today too there in your pack." Kaileyn said but the princess only

Estelle folded her lips in her mouth as she looked around in the woods for the nth time like she was trying to memorize each and everywhere she had and was stepping into so she wouldn't get lost when trying to go back.It had been quite a while now and she was quite proud to say that she was going to go back home empty as what she was seeing now was so not what she'd imagined but a smile formed her face when she remembered the look in his eyes and the passionate kiss they'd shared when she was leaving.Unconsciously, she touched her lips and a sigh escaped her lips, she was already missing him but she immediately removed her mind from him. If she kept thinking about him, then she was definitely going to remain in that spot till it was time to go back.She started to move slowly but still keeping her eyes on the environment so she makes sure she doesn't go really far into the woods, her eyes were also on the maids lurking around. River had told her not to let them out of her sight

Neil who was entering the terrace at that moment immediately rushed to the Alpha who also continued coughing for almost a minute before he finally stopped." Are you okay?" Neil asked and the man hurriedly nodded." What is it? Are they back? Is Estelle back?" The Alpha asked hastily while Neil slowly shook his head, confused but when he saw the fear in the man's eyes, he sighed." I think she'll be fine, stop worrying yourself out. We know they wouldn't be able to come back now, there's still enough time." " There's not any enough time. She doesn't know anywhere in the woods, what if she's lost? What if she's in trouble? Send the other batch of warriors into the woods, they should report to me when they find her." The Alpha ordered." But–"" Now! Don't get me mad now, Neil!" The Alpha cut him off with dark eyes and he nodded again as he linked the head of the warrior guards.There was silence afterwards as Neil only stared at River's wide back that was now turned to him like h
