The Lunar Queen (Lyric and Mason) novel Chapter 187

Chapter 187

Cole POV

RETA

The next morning I’m woken up by Elise jumping in my bed.

“Ellie what are you doing in here?” I ask pulling her into my arms.

“I miss Lyric and your bed smells like her” She replies.

B

That tightens something in my chest instantly.

I crack one eye open and look at her.

“We are going to bring her home today, but I have to go now, you can stay in here if you want. Okay?” I say.

She nods and snuggles further into the bed.

For a second I just stand there looking at her curled up in our bed and it hits me all over again how empty this palace has felt

without Lyric in it.

I walk in the bathroom and take a quick shower before heading down to the main dining room.

Dominic walks over to me as I walk inside.

“Daniella says the witch is back in the shop and they are ready to move” He says.

I nod.

“Did Tabitha give them the potion?” I ask.

“Yes, I had Felix deliver it to them before sunrise” He responds.

“Good.”

No hesitation now. No more waiting.

“Good morning everyone today we bring our Queen home and we end this, if you are ready to go gather outside the palace we leave

in 10 minutes” I say walking over to where Jace and Logan are sitting with Hunter and Lucas.

“Are you four joining us?” I ask.

Hunter nods his head.

“We are definitely coming” Hunter says.

Chapter 187

“Where is Micah?” I ask.

Σ

“He’s in the cells with Mason, we have all been taking turns sitting down there with him until he is released” Hunter answers

“Good, he needs a friend and tell my parents he can be released after we leave” I say to them.

Ten minutes later everyone is gathered outside the palace waiting for instruction.

Jonathan steps out and everyone growls at him.

“Stand down, he is not our enemy he is the one that was helping the Queen and who will help us bring her home” I say and everything goes silent before they all take a knee for him.

His eyes widen slightly at that like he still isn’t used to people choosing him.

He looks at me in shock.

“Why are they kneeling?” he asks me

“They are giving you their respect for helping to protect their Queen” I say to him smiling as I clap his back once.

“Now let’s go get our mates back” I say.

I face my wolves, my people who are fighting by my side to bring my mate home.

Every face staring back at me is waiting for one thing. Her.

“When we get to the settlement we will wait for the enforcers to deal with the witch and then we attack. Everybody grab a scent blocker, we will be cloaked by magic until the moment of attack, Jonathan said if our Queen and his mate’s plan worked all of the rogues who are not a threat have already been moved and a lot of what you may see is an illusion. So we must rely on scents

heavily” I announce to them

“So everyone is a kill on sight?” Hunter asks

“Yes, kill on sight. Whoever finds the Queen first get her out immediately and find Tabitha she will be waiting for her, David is to

be left alive, engage and link me. He is mine” I say.

The second those words leave my mouth Zeus pushes hard inside me, hungry for him already.

“Also there are two rogues who will be there but are helping the Queen, Joshua and Henry. They will most likely be found close to

her unless David is using one of them to replace me” Jonathan says

“Okay, we need descriptions kid, we’re not going to be asking names in wolf form” Alpha Orion says.

He nods.

“Right. Sorry Joshua is tall and olive skin, he has a scar across his right eye, he is the only one with it, it’s visible in his wolf furm

also, and Henry is a short built wolf with blonde hair and his wolf is a golden color” He says.

“Good now let’s go” I say walking and grabbing a scent blocker off the table, I swallow the contents and shift into Zeus.

The shift is swift and Zeus comes forward with me as we run through everyone to lead the way.

The closer we get the harder he pushes. Restless. Violent. Impatient.

Running through the forest watching the trees blur past as I get closer to getting my mate back.

My excitement is blending with Zeus’s restlessness and it’s making me anxious, she’s so close I can almost smell her beautiful

honeysuckle scent.
