The Lunar Queen
Chapter 200
Cole POV
I didn’t want to say it to Lyric but I am happy Mason is dead. I wish I didn’t have to die for her to kill him but I’m glad he’s finally dead. That thought alone makes me feel guilty because I know if things were different-if she had really lost me-she would still be mourning him too. That’s who my mate is. She loves too deeply even when people hurt her.
Lyric fell asleep right after the triplets went back to sleep. The exhaustion hit her hard. One second she was talking to me and the next she was barely keeping her eyes open. I scoop her up and lay her in our bed after I remove her clothes. She makes a soft sleepy sound and instinctively reaches for me even in her sleep.
“Cole all of us guys are in the study, come down” Dominic links me.
“Give me a minute, need to grab the baby monitor and put Lyric in the bed” I link back.
I close the door to the nursery that is connected to our room so they don’t wake her and I grab the monitor. As I walk out Elise is a
my room door.
“Hey bug you okay?” I ask her.
“Can I sleep with you tonight, I want to be close to Lyric” She says.
There’s still fear in her eyes. Like she thinks if she falls asleep Lyric might disappear again.
I smile at her she wasn’t even like this with Aria or our mother. “Of course, but be quiet okay the pups are sleeping and so is Lyric”
I say kissing her forehead before holding the door open for her to go inside.
I’m surprised that when I get downstairs all the remaining Alphas are here and all of my brother’s and Lyric’s.
“Beta Matthew I’m happy to see that your Alpha didn’t fall with the pack and is now mated to my sister” I say when I notice Matthew sitting with Joshua.
He chuckles “Yeah if it is okay with you and the Luna we would all like to join the Hidden Moon pack especially now that my Alpha has been bonded to the Luna as her guard” He says.
I nod my head. “Of course and if I know my mate she will want to bring in all the rogues we rescued” I say to him.
Because that’s Lyric. She could be drowning and still try to save everybody else around her.
“Dominic have we heard anything from Alpha Yuri and Alpha Warren” I ask Dom as I pour myself a drink.
“Alpha Yuri’s mate was in labor so he was dealing with that and Alpha Warren I still haven’t heard anything from the scouts i sent
yet” he says.

Chapter 200
“Send a gift to Yuri and keep me posted on what is going on with Warren” I say to him.
“Cole did you speak to your mate about the council?” Tobias asks.
1 shake my head before taking a sip of my drink. “We didn’t discuss much except for the pups and Mason” I say turning to Liam
“I’m really sorry about Mason” I say to him.
Even after everything, saying it still feels strange. Mason died by my mate’s hand because he stabbed me trying to take what was
never his. None of this should have happened.
He lifts his glass “Thank you, if I’m being honest with myself Alpha I saw this coming after Lyric left the pack. I never knew how deep his feelings for her was but I knew he cared strongly for her but this was more than I ever expected” He says.
We all nod at that.
“You are handling this better than I would” Alpha Orion says
“I’m holding it together for my mate and daughter, but Lyric was our daughter too and I know that she didn’t want him dead so tha small part makes it easier to accept. She loved him just as much as he loved her but she was able to put those feelings aside when she found her mate and he wasn’t so I can’t blame her” He says.
