The Perfect Luna novel Chapter 27

“So, what is it?” Gideon looked at his Beta with his brows furrowed. He knew that Reid would never distract him at a moment like this. Not when he just brought his mate to his house to spend time with her morning after you were gone as I received the news about local packs training together with foxes and werebears right next to our territory.

“Foxes and werebears, you say?” Gideon rubbed his chin, which he had shaven clean just this morning before meeting Riannon. Now his usual stubble wasn’t there and it felt weird…

Foxes, werebears and werewolves hated each other. They were all subjects to Lycan’s and it was usually hard to make them stay civil with each other.

And now they were training happily together. Only that both Reid and the king knew that there was nothing to be happy about there.

They all were not one hundred percent satisfied with the lycans’s rule. All of them thought that they could do better. Not even realizing that it was the lycans who kept them from killing each other and going to war. There was a big difference between lycans and other kinds of shifters. And it wasn’t just the fact that they were physically stronger and more powerful. It was the fact that in spite of their power, they could control their feral beasts inside of them

better than anyone else and were capable of making reasonable decisions at all times.

They could have submitted everyone using raw force. Just like their ancestors did back in the day. But now lycans preferred to avoid wars where it was necessary. And sometimes Gideon was questioning that decision. Because ever since the lycans went onto this peaceful path, everybody wanted a piece of them. Unfortunately, they were not ready for the new ways.

Now the rumors were spreading all over the kingdom that an uprising was in the works. But it was still hard to tell which packs were involved in it and when would they start acting. Or if they already started…

“The warriors will deal with it, you know that,” Reid placed his hands in his pockets, leaning over the wall, “But…”

“It’s just the tip of the iceberg and we still don’t know who is causing all that,” Gideon said out loud what they both were thinking and then looked at his Beta, “And you still think it’s a good time for a White Party?”

“Actually, I do,” Reid smirked and Gideon remembered that he made him his second in command for a reason.

“There is not much to tell,” the Beta shrugged his shoulders, “It’s simple, really. Let them believe that we have no idea what is going on. I am sure sooner or later they will show themselves. All we need to do is watch them carefully. Luckily, our spies are in place.”

It was not a bad idea and Gideon knew that. At least it was definitely better to make them believe that they didn’t have a clue about what was going on. If they stayed visibly alerted then their enemies would lay low. That wasn’t what he wanted. He wanted to act. Fast. He wanted to be done with it and concentrate on his mate.

“Fine,” the king grunted, “White party it is then. Why the hell it is white by the way?”

“You are asking the wrong person,” Reid chuckled, “All that is on Savannah.”

“Got it,” the lycan king prepared to leave but stopped to give a quick glance to his friend,“ And, Reid, I will have another small task for you…”

Savvanah open the doors to a spacious light room with a loud bang and stormed in, pulling Riannon after her.

“And this is where you are going to be staying!” the girl giggled cheerfully, “It’s the Luna’s bedroom!”

Ria almost choked trying to say the next word, “What? Is it even okay for me to stay here?

“Of course!” the lycan princess waved it off, “I wouldn’t have prepared it for you if it wasn’t! My mum used to live here.”

“Your mum?” Ria suddenly felt that the room was too hot, “As in the former queen?”

“Yeah,” Savvy shrugged her shoulders, “Do you like it? Should I change anything? We can change everything! Oh, I feel that it’s going to be so fun!”

“Erm, no!” Riannon tried to calm the girl down, “It’s amazing! I love it! No need to make any changes. And I am… humbled by the honor of being able to live in this room.”
