Rise Of A Shattered Luna (Natalie) by Kave Derry novel Chapter 294

Chapter 294 The Name

“Allegedly

お

Her stare sharpened.

“You command the North.”

“Technically.”

“And you’re talking about marrying into my family like some Shameless stray dog looking for shelter.”

“See?” I grinned. “Now you’re understanding my vision.”

The disbelief on her face nearly killed me.

Most dominant Alphas would rather die than move into their mate’s territory. Pride alone would tear them apart before the ceremony even finished.

But me?

I genuinely didn’t care.

Titles meant nothing beside Natalie.

Power meant even less.

The North bowed because I forced it to bow.

But this woman?

She made me want to kneel willingly.

Natalie stared at me for several long seconds before speaking carefully.

“If Anthony heard you speaking like this, he would collapse.”

“He’s dramatic.”

“Shauna would probably faint.”

“She’ll survive.”

“The council would lose their minds.”

I shrugged lazily.

“Then let them lose them.”

Before she could respond, I slid my arms around her waist and pulled her gently against my chest.

Her breath caught softly.

Howered my head slightly until our foreheads nearly touched.

“Tell me honestly,” I murmured. “Would you reject me if I asked to take your family’s name?”

“No,” Natalie said before I could answer. “You did that yourselves.”

Again, silence.

Quincy looked like she wanted to argue more.

But fear kept interrupting her courage every time she glanced at me.

Smart instinct.

Very smart instinct.

“You think he loves you?” Quincy asked suddenly, desperation making her reckless again. “Men like him only understand possession and violence!”

Raze snarled immediately.

But Natalie answered first.

“And people like you only understand usefulness.”

Quincy’s lips parted.

Nothing came out.

Natalie stepped closer then, her heels crunching softly against the gravel.

“You keep calling him a violent northern Alpha,” she said quietly. “But the difference between Baron and the people in the Summers family is simple.”

Her golden eyes turned icy.

“He’s honest about what he is.”

Damn.

That one hit even me.

Quincy staggered slightly backward.

“Natalie…” Quincy whispered one final time.

But Natalie had already turned away.

Just like that.

The conversation was over for her.

Then she looked up at me.

And the coldness disappeared instantly from her face.

It happened so fast it genuinely fascinated me sometimes.

Still remember being too weak.

“They took everything from her.” My voice remained calm despite the ice underneath it. “So to, I don’t particularly care about preserving their precious name.”

Natalie went silent.

I continued walking slowly, pulling her with me.

“The only real family I’ve ever chosen is standing beside me right now.” I glanced down at her. “You. The twins. This den.”

Her expression softened painfully.

“So if becoming the Stone family’s useless live–in son–in–law guarantees I keep all of you…” I smirked faintly. “Then congratulations. I’ll even carry the luggage inside personally.”

A helpless sound escaped her throat halfway between exasperation and affection.

“You’re unbelievable.”

“I’m adaptable.”

“You’re impossible.”

“You still love me.”

“That’s unfortunately true.”

1 grinned instantly.

But then her expression changed again.

Softer this time.

Sad almost.

Her fingers tightened around mine.

“You really hate them that much?” she asked quietly. “Your family?”

Hatred.

The word settled heavily inside

my

chest.

I stared ahead at the dark road for several long moments before answering.

“Yes,”
