Luna's Redeemer THIRTY SEVEN
KIARA I jolted awake with a gasp, bringing a hand to my baby bump in remembrance of the anguish I'd suffered. Right before I'd passed out at the training arena, Denzel had showed up, his eyes filled with concern. I stared at the pink sky through the window. Dusk had arrived. This meant that I'd been unconscious for hours. Was my baby okay? The memory of the amount of blood that had left my body was enough to bring tears to my eyes. My hands began to tremble at the thought that my baby was in danger. "Are you in pain?" I turned to look at Denzel, who was seated by my side, his brows creased. I reached out for him, and he took my hand in his, pressing a kiss to the back of my palm. "My baby... is she okay?" I breathed, swallowing past the painful lump in my throat. "She's alright. She's safe," he responded, and I sighed, tears of relief filling my eyes. "W-what happened? Did I do something wrong?" I rasped, my gaze meeting Denzel's gentle ones. "It wasn't your fault," he said,

KIARA Cassy managed to help me serve quite a delicious meal to my mate. Even so, I couldn't tell him I'd taken part in the cooking. I went to bed late that night. Denzel had been busy with some work in his study. Therefore, I fell asleep without him.When I opened my eyes, I found myself in a rocky terrain with unyielding mists. The sky was cloudy, and the air was chilly. I furrowed my brows, puzzled. This strange terrain didn't seem like a mere dream. There was a feeling of deja vu gnawing at me. This place reminded me of Lucas. Was this another trick of his? There was no way he had sneaked into my mind despite Denzel's imprint, right? "What did you do? I couldn't enter your mind for a while," a familiar voice spoke from behind me, and I curled my hands into fists, frustration bubbling up inside of me. Speak of the devil. Taking a deep breath, I turned around to see Lucas standing there with his hands shoved into the pockets of his black pants. He wasn't wearing a shirt, an

DENZEL My mate stared at me with wide, fearful eyes. I could feel the wild racing of her heartbeat. Was she that afraid of being alone? Letting out a sigh, I cupped her face and pressed a kiss to her forehead."The annual peace treaty meeting will be held for three days. As king of the mountain wolves, it is important for me to attend the event," I said to her. Kiara's frown deepened."Three days? That's a long time. What do I do when I miss you?" She mumbled. I smiled at her. She was so adorable when she mumbled like that. "You can stay in my room," I told her, and she blew out a breath."Fine. You have to come home right after the event, okay?" My heart warmed at the sound of the word 'home'. Kiara might not have thought much about it. However, it meant a lot to me. "When will you be leaving?" She asked, gazing at me. "Tonight," I responded.She nodded slowly, and I grinned, pulling her into my embrace. Holding her like this brought me so much relief from the continuous

KIARA "You have to leave before my father returns, do you understand?" He asked me, his dark eyes wide. I gulped. I should be afraid of the danger in his eyes. I shouldn't have hesitated. But seeing him covered in blood was hurtful. And it hurt even more, knowing that I couldn't do anything to help him. "Snap out of it, Kiara. I won't die from all of this. You've been feverish since last night, this place is not safe for you," he said. This time his gaze was softer. I'd always wondered why his voice had a certain maturity to it. I knew he was older than me by a couple of years. Even so, he spoke as though he was centuries old. I found it fascinating. "Do you not hear me?" I sighed, lowering my gaze."What about you? That man won't stop hurting you. How can we escape this place when there's no door or window?" I asked. He reached out to take a hold of my hand in a loose grip. His bloodied fingers stained mine, but I did not feel disgusted. "Trust me, will you?" He whispered

KIARA "You should be terrified. You do not know what I plan to do to you," Deanna hissed, and I blinked, folding my arms around my chest. Deanna lurched at me but stumbled backwards before she could touch me. She stared at me with wide eyes, her nose flared. "W-what are you?" "So, you're Deanna. The one who lacks respect for herself. Aren't you ashamed of yourself? You keep claiming that I stole your position," I said, and she narrowed her eyes at me. "What's that supposed to mean?" She demanded."You betrayed Denzel first. You're the one who decided that you didn't want to stay by his side," I said."Is that what he told you?" She hissed. "What? Are you going to lie about that? I know you're petty enough to possess people to do your bidding. It's why I'm not going to believe anything you say," I stated."You think you're all that? You're not special, you hear me? You will come to understand this when he loses control around you. You're not safe. Nobody is safe around him,"

KIARA Denzel took my hand in his, inspecting the glowing tips of my fingers with squinted eyes. He looked up to meet my gaze, a crease in his brows. "Are you feeling okay?" he asked, and I nodded. Suddenly, his frown deepened, his eyes darkening. "Is something wrong?" I asked."Keenan just contacted me," he responded, dragging in a sharp breath. "Apparently, there are corpses around the palace walls," he said, and I stiffened."Corpses? Who would do that?" I said, my stomach tightening. "I need to monitor the situation to ascertain how bad it is. Will you be okay on your own?" He asked."Of course," I responded, and he pressed a kiss to my cheek."I won't be long, okay?" He whispered, rising to his feet. I watched him walk out of his study, a sinking feeling in my stomach. I had a feeling that this was merely the beginning of something huge. After I left the study, I headed to the garden, only to find Cassy sitting there. She beamed at me, gesturing for me to sit beside her

DENZEL "I was right, wasn't I? What did you see?" I heard Keenan say as I opened my eyes. Wincing at the pounding in my head, I glanced at Kiara, who was seated on the chair by my bedside. Her wide eyes were filled with terror. She was so shaken up that she didn't notice that I was staring at her until Keenan noticed."Your majesty, how are you feeling?" He said and Kiara looked up, her gaze meeting mine. "Denzel..." She breathed, rising to her feet to sit on the bed by my side. She brought a hand to the side of my face, her eyes misting over. "You've gone through so much," she breathed, embracing me. I shut my eyes briefly, feeling her tendrils of magic wrapping themselves around me to ease my pain and warm me up. "How long have I been out?" I rasped when I opened my eyes once more. "It's been two days," Keenan responded, and my chest tightened. I pulled away from Kiara's embrace to study her features. She had dark circles under her tired eyes."I'm sorry," I breathed, an

Warning+18KIARA My eyes fluttered close as Denzel claimed my lips once more. He pulled away to trail kisses along the curve of my neck, a moan slipping out of my lips when he nibbled on my skin with his canines. When he lowered the strap of my dress to press a kiss to the swell of my breast, I gasped, feeling my nipples harden against the fabric of my dress. Through half-open eyelids, I watched him lower the top of my dress, exposing my full breasts. A smirk curled his lips, and I felt my cheeks heat up."Now look at these peaches," he drawled, cupping one of them in his large hands. When he leaned down to capture a rosy nipple with his mouth, I arched my back, a groan slipping out of my lips while my fingers got lost among the strands of his hair.Tugging at one nipple, he teased the other with his teeth, sending shock waves of pleasure rolling through me. Denzel swept me off my feet to place me on his desk. Parting my legs, he stepped in between them, his hands inching tow
