Awakening Luna: Darkness Holding The Light By Majie Chapter 25

CHAPTER TWENTY-FIVE

LEWIS

Given my position and the many extraordinary things I have in my life, my emotions have long been

tampered. There were only a few things that could make me happy, and even fewer things that could

make me excited. Above all, in the past, there was not a single thing that made me flustered.

So, that I was surprised was an understatement when I felt my heart beat faster as I looked at those

shy-looking and yet bright eyes that were sneaking side glances at me. “This…’I blinked and aimlessly

looked in front of me. ‘My heart is beating faster, and I can’t seem to stay calm. Am I feeling flustered?’

I thought to myself. ‘Am I feeling this way… because Lia thought I looked cool?’ I felt a warm tingling Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

sensation on my cheeks. ‘How is it like this? I was just feeling angry, but just one sentence from her, I

am not feeling flustered instead.’

Though I was feeling anything but calm inside, on the outside, my face grew colder and colder as

seconds passed by. Of course, the anger that I felt did entirely dissipate. However, the true reason for

my current expression was to hide the smile that was attempting to escape from my

lips.

The prince and the lady saw my expression and their faces turned more serious. “Talascar, the royal

family is-” Halen started to say but stopped. Instead, he frowned for a few seconds before he said, “You

are a key figure in the whole werekind and we don’t want to tarnish our relationship with you.” “This

matter is of grave importance. But considering that Lady Adelia is your mate, all we would ask from her

is her cooperation,” he added.

The royal family is above all werewolves, and the head of the royal family is the lord of all werekind.

Needless to say, the lord just needed to say a word and we had to follow his or her every word. That

they were willing to ask for Lia’s cooperation instead of ordering her to fight against that bastard

showed the respect that they had for me. I knew that, and yet, I was not satisfied.

I took Lia under my protection and the deal was only between us. To think that they would place the

werekind’s safety on Lia’s small shoulder just because she was some goddess in her past life made me

irked. Moreover, the fact that the royal family butted in our relationship not even a day after Lia and I

met was getting in my nerve. “Prince,” I snapped. “If your words are true, don’t you think that the

werekind is being so shameless?”

“Ah?” Halen gave me a confused look “If Lia is indeed the reincarnation of a deity that helped contain

the wind god, it only means

that for our safety, she already sacrificed herself once. Even as a goddess, she allowed her soul to be

entrapped in the prison with the wind god for thousands of years. And now that she finally reincarnated,

you want her to sacrifice herself once more?” I coldly said.

Halen’s eyes trembled upon hearing my statement. On his side, Lady Regina looked a little flushed. My

words seemed to affect them more than I thought. Unfortunately, I was not done and still had a lot of

things to say. Suddenly, I felt a soft hand holding mine. I blinked in surprise and looked at the small

figure in my arms.

Compared to the shy and adoring look that she had before, I noticed that her eyes looked calmer and

there was a small trace of smile on her lips. It was as if at that moment, she was feeling happy and

content. I frowned.

‘What are you so happy for? Are you happy because this is in line with your plans? Are you happy that

I am angry for you? Or are you feeling genuinely happy because you can help the werewolves?’ “Ah,” I

softly exclaimed when I realized that I subconsciously severed our mind-link. I felt dejected.

“Lewis,” I heard Lia’s soft voice. “Um… I can cooperate with the royal family without any problem,” she

added.

‘Darn the royal family and it’s every member,’I internally swore and did not hide my displeasure.

On the contrary, the two siblings looked as if flowers bloomed on their faces. I could not help but send

that bastard Halen a glare.

“Don’t worry. We know of what Alpha Lewis is saying, Lady Regina started to say. “We also admit that

the royal family is indeed being shameless. So for this matter, the royal family swear that we will protect

Lady Adelia with all our might so no harm will befall her,” she added. “We will definitely not require her

to sacrifice more for us, and especially we won’t ask her to give her life to anyone again.”

I narrowed my eyes before sighing. “Since Lia has decided on this and since the Lady has spoken,

then I have nothing to say,” I told them before sending a mind-link to Halen and the Lady.

‘However, please I want to warn the prince and the lady. Adelia is my mate. Any harm that comes in her

way is considered as an attack to the Pack of Talascar,’ I warned them.

‘Since they are so forceful about this, they don’t blame me if I will also be forceful,’ I thought to myself.

It was my vow, and both of them understood and gave me a nod. The room was instantly filled with

tension.

“Tha-thank you, Re-Regina,” Suddenly, I heard Lia say. “I will willingly cooperate with you.”

“Erm, actually… I already have a strategy on how we could fight the evil god. So if you guys don’t mind,

will you listen to my plan?” Lia shyly asked and my brows lifted in surprise.

“Actually… I thought… since we already know there will be an assassination attempt on the princess…

wouldn’t it be great if we assassinate the assassins?” She added with an excited voice.
