The Luna Choosing Game by Jane Above Story novel Chapter 86

Chapter 0086 

The gathered crowd quieted at Nicholas and Julian’s declaration. The King narrowed his gaze

You are saying that Piper did this.” 

Yes,Nicholas said without hesitation

Around us, the speculative gazes of the onlookers were more than enough to tell of their disbelief. Yet before they could make me nervous, Julian’s easy laughter claimed everyone’s attention

Have you all forgotten how talented Piper is with a bow? She nearly matched me shot for shot during 

our archery event.” 

No one could deny the truth of that. Soon the speculative glances returned more to ones of annoyance 

and jealousy

Very good, Piper.The King studied me closely, draped over Nicholas’s back as I was. Though it seems 

you have gotten injured.” 

A twisted ankle,I said

I will have the physician make certain she is well,Nicholas added

The King moved his probing eyes to Nicholas. Send a servant to do so.” 

Nicholas tensed beneath me. Yes, sir.” 

Moving from us, the King approached Nathan, Send some servants to retrieve the boar for the barbecue 

tomorrow.” 

At once, Your Majesty.Nathan quickly directed others to move

My wolf companion will guide you to the location.Nicholas looked down. Night, if you could.” 

Night, who had diligently taken position at Nicholas’s right, stood and followed his command

You can lower me now,I said to Nicholas. I spotted the cameras coming closer. I really didn’t want them to have closeups of me hanging all over Nicholas

Slowly, he lowered me down. I could stand on one foot, but i was wobbly Nicholas stayed at my side, ready to catch me. When leaned a bit too far in one direction, he placed his hand under my arm and held me more firmly

The gate began to separate into shatter groups to talk. Olivia came over to Nicholas and me 

Congratulations, Piper. It must have been an impressive shot you made. How fortunate you were that two princes were able to find you when you were hurt.” 

I wasn’t sure what she was getting at, or why she was being so nice. Likely she was only acting this way because Nicholas was beside me. In private, I highly doubted she would be so kind. Regardless, for now, I accepted her words

Thank you, Olivia,I said

She nodded, then moved on

Not to be outdone, Linda quickly moved into the place Olivia had vacated

Yes, congratulations are in order,Linda said, aneering slightly. Sonice that you are now the hero of the event. So.. deserved.The words came stiffly, like it physically pained her to pay the compliments

Thank you,I said, mostly to make this encounter stop

Linda pressed her l*ps hard together. Yes, well. Hopefully you will be more careful next time so as not to hurt yourself and bother our princes.” 

“I had no issue assisting Piper,Nicholas said, voice neutral

Most magnanimous of you to say so, Prince NicholasLinda gave a little bow, then excused herself

I was happy to see her go
