Awakening Luna: Darkness Holding the Light by Majie novel Chapter 27

CHAPTER TWENTY-SEVEN

ADELIA

My question was met with silence and it was only after a few seconds that Lewis said, “Even though no one could hear us from the outside, but the others who are also within the barrier could hear us.” “Oh,” I softly exclaimed before looking at the other trees. Although all that I could see were trees and lush leaves, I knew that the warriors from Lewis’ pack were with us and were hiding inside those trees.

I nodded in understanding. “I see,” I told him, slightly feeling embarrassed why I did not think of this before. Matters regarding my visions were top secrets that were only between Lewis, I, and the royal family. It was better this way because if it was somehow leaked outside, then it would be disastrous.

“Ahem,” suddenly, I heard an old man clearing his throat. “Alpha, please don’t mind us old fogeys. We don’t dare listen to your conversation with the Luna so you don’t have to be troubled by using mind-link. But of course, saying sweet nothings through mind-link is a very thrilling experience. Even me and Linda still do it all the time, how much more would it be between newly mated couples,” he said out of nowhere before laughing. “That’s right, please continue,”other voices suddenly appeared and agreed with him. My eyes could not help but widen before looking at Lewis. ‘Ah, they are misunderstanding!’ I thought as my shoulders slightly trembled. “They think that Lewis and I are flirting through our mind-link. What if Lewis did not like that and became displeased because of that?’Cold sweat appeared on my back. Even though Lewis marked me, we were not true mates and our relationship was only based on an agreement. It was more like I was his employee who would supply him with my visions, and he was my employer who would protect me from Alec. ‘Lewis is already so kind to me and treats me gently,’ I thought. ‘His subjects openly teasing him like this… what if he becomes annoyed with me?’ Truly, I was worried. After all, an alpha’s prestige can not be taken lightly, and I never heard of a lower ranked werewolf teasing their alphas. In my pack, if someone mistakenly acted out of place, he would be immediately punished by Alec. “There is no need for everyone to be worried,” as I was internally panicked, I heard Lewis speak. “The conversation between your Luna and I is indeed confidential between the two of us because if it gets leaked… ” he added in a deadpan voice.

“…then all of you will definitely die…” he added, and the once lively atmosphere immediately became dead silent. My heart skipped from fright. “out of jealousy, of course,” Lewis added in a soft voice. Suddenly, the dead atmosphere once again became very lively with the warriors cheering and complaining at the same time. I repeatedly blinked as my mind blanked.

“Alpha, you should not flaunt your love life like that. Some of us haven’t found our mates yet,” I heard someone whine. ‘Love… love life…’I heard the word and felt jittery inside. And when I heard a low chuckle beside me, I felt utterly flustered. Fortunately, the group’s teasing did not continue for long as a few minutes later, a hint of the prince and the princess’ aura and their entourage became conspicuous. As discussed earlier, the prince and the princess would be travelling back to the castle as originally planned. Then, Lewis’ warriors would strike the assassins as they start to attack the princess. My heart started hammering in my chest as I stared nervously at the princess’ approaching car. Truthfully, I was not able to witness everything that happened in my vision and the information that I told them all came from the conclusions that I obtained from the reports and rumors I heard in some of my visions. ‘The report said that the royal warriors scanned the area minutes after the princess’ car passed and they did not detect any abnormality in the surroundings. Members of the royal warriors have the ability to detect enemies and assassins. Earlier, Lewis also scanned the forest and did not detect anything. It could only mean that the assassins will appear the moment the princess

car is at this juncture,’ I thought to myself. ‘Which should be… any seconds now.’ The car quickly approached the area where we were hidden. Everything appeared to be normal and there was nothing worthy to note of. That was, until their car arrived a hundred meters from us and suddenly, fifty werewolves blocked the car. Surprisingly, each of the werewolves looked calm and composed with amicable and apologetic smiles on their faces, as if they were there to have a discussion with the princess instead of killing her.
