The Luna Choosing Game by Jane Above Story novel Chapter 154

Chapter 0154 

If I wanted to help the people, I would have to do it on my own. As for the border, I could only hope. Terry’s arrogance didn’t lead us into full–scale war. 

“I’m not sure it’s wise to send that many troops north,” the King said. “If this is an innocent endeavor on their part, we might then look the part of the aggressor.” 

Rather an aggressor than a coward,” Terry said. 

“We should listen to my brother,” the Queen said. 

The King frowned deeper. 

“Why don’t you run along, Nicholas? Terry called to me again. “If you truly care so much for the welfare 

of the people, perhaps you should start with that pretty little commoner and her daughter. They’ve been very… vulnerable lately.” He smiled. “We wouldn’t want anything to happen to them.” 

Red hot anger burst in my mind and my wolf snarled under my skin. 

Was he just threatening Piper and Elva? 

But if he was, what could I do about it? He had my parents‘ favor. A seat at the right hand of the King. 

I raged in my mind, desiring to jump over the table and throttle him. 

As it was, I turned on my heel and stormed to the exit of the room. 

I burst into the hallway, then startled to find Julian jumping away from the door. He had clearly been 

eavesdropping. 

I was so angry at Terry, that I didn’t even mind Julian’s presence. In fact, I welcomed it. 

I closed the door behind me, then grabbed Julian by the shoulder and roughly dragged him down the hall 

into my 

chambers. I threw him inside, then closed the door behind us. 

“Don’t take your rage out on me, brother,” Julian said. His smile took on an edge. “But if you want to 

sabotage our dear uncle Terry, I’m all for it.” 

I 

The thought was tempting, but I was never good at subterfuge. Julian knew that. I preferred a more 

direct route. Like a challenge perhaps. 

But that was neither here nor there, and had nothing to do with what I wished to speak to Julian about 

“You need to take Piper on another date,” I said. 

Julian’s smile sl*pped. His brows went high on his forehead. I’d surprised him. Good. That was a nice 

change 

“That is not something I thought I’d hear you say,” Julian admitted. 

It wasn’t something I’d thought I’d say. But for Piper’s safety, I was desperate. 

“If you 

can further establish her as your favorite, it will help protect her against whatever Terry and the 

rest of our family has planned for her.” 

“You think the King and Queen are in on his plans?” Julian asked. 

“I don’t know, but they seem fully submissive to the rest of his ideas. I’m not willing to take the chance 

with Piper’s life. Elva’s either.” 

Julian crossed his arms. “Yes, I see what you mean.”
