The Luna Choosing Game by Jane Above Story novel Chapter 396

 

Chapter 0396 

Yes,a few girls said. The rest nodded. I just watched, a bit in shock

Good,Nathan said. Do not be late.Then he left us

The girls all looked at each other again. And then, at once, in a rush, they stood up and headed for the door

What are you going to wear?Tiffany asked Veronica as they too made their way out. I didn’t hear Veronica’s reply

Elva and I were the last to leave. We would need time to pick and plan our outfits, but I wasn’t overly worried. Likely Charlotte already had everything handled. And if she didn’t, a simple sundress would do. I was not quite as knowledgeable about outfits as the other girls

As we walked through the hallways, I paused when we spotted Nicholas and Julian coming toward us

Nicklass!Elva shouted and ran forward. Julan!” 

Nicholas hugged her, and then Julian scooped her up into his arms and swung her around. She giggled and laughed, then hung onto him around his neck as he pulled her closer

Have you been practicing what I showed you?” Julian asked her

Elva nodded her head grandly, but after spotting me watching, she stopped. She leaned in and whispered too loudly to be kept secret, Mommy doesn’t like it.” 

I had to talk to her about that later. It didn’t bother me so much, anymore

With Elva so thoroughly distracted in a discussion with Julian, Nicholas came 

closer to me

I take it you’ve heard the news?he asked

Yes. Do you have any idea what’s going on?” 

No. We’re just as much in the dark. The King is likely planning something 

drastic to help bring the royal family into a better light with the public. Julian and 

I have speculated what that could be, but we’re just guessing.” 

What are your guesses?I asked

I don’t want to worry you,he said

That didn’t make me feel any better. Nick” 

1/2 

I’ll protect you, Piper. Whatever it is, you have nothing to fear.” 

But who will protect you?I asked

He smiled a little at me, but didn’t say a word. I knew what he was thinking, an old tenant in werewolf culture: an Alpha protects his family

I wished he would say so allowed, but I knew he couldn’t. We weren’t really a family. We never would be

But his desire to protect me and Elva made me want to protect him too. I had strength now. If worse came to worse, I would find my own ways to keep him safe

Two hours later, I, Elva, and the rest of the girls were led to stand in a line out front of the palace. Nathan waited until we were in place

The cameras were already set up and rolling. The King and Queen were missing, but Nicholas and Julian were there as representatives, standing beside Nathan on a platform
