The Lunar Queen (Lyric and Mason) novel Chapter 95

Chapter 95

“the throne was never yours,” Cole growls out, his voice low and dangerous beside me, vibrating with restrained violence.

“oh but it was cousin, your father is the second born son our grandfather felt my father wasn’t fit to wear the crown so he gave it to your father and now I want it back,” he growls.

“and now that our first Luna Queen has been reborn I can finally take back what is rightfully mine.”

“I will never help you,” I snarl, my power starting to rise under my skin, unstable and reacting to my anger.

you will if you want to save your precious long lost sister,” he says.

feel my powers coursing through me stronger, sharper, barely contained, and he feels it too because his eyes widen.

presses the knife harder against her neck and she hisses in pain, her body going still in a way that makes my chest tighten

painfully.

“if you hurt me she dies too,” he says.

We hear a twig snap-

Elias’s wolf comes barreling out.

Time slows down, everything stretching just enough for me to know exactly what’s about to happen-and that I’m too late.

And he pushes the

into her throat.

Ing a powerful blast of energy that throws everybody back, the force ripping out of me like something breaking loose.

to her side, dropping hard to my knees.

I place my hand over her neck, trying to heal her-but she won’t heal, and that’s when real panic sets in, sharp and suffocating.

“Nova why can’t I heal her,” I say, tears spilling fast, my hands starting to shake against her skin.

“something was wrong with the knife, I think it was spelled,” she says.

“no, no, no,” I cry.

“Iris please, I just got you-1 can’t lose you,” I sob, my voice breaking completely now, the words barely coming out right.

Elias runs over.

Chapter 95

“no Iris baby, I’m so sorry this is all my fault I shouldn’t have tried to sneak up on him,” he cries, his voice raw and cracked in a

way that makes everything worse.

Then-

I gasp.

And I’m back in the SUV.

Getting ready to pull out of the pack gates.

My heart is racing, like it never stopped, like I’m still in it.

My hand tightens around Cole’s and the fear running through me is intense, sharp and suffocating like I’m still watching hot die in

front of me.

“Stop the car,” I say low at first.

Then panic takes over.

“STOP THE CAR!” I scream this time, my voice breaking as the fear spikes higher.

The guard stomps hard on the brakes.

“princess what’s wrong?” he asks.

“We are going to be ambushed 30 minutes out, rogues. They kill Iris,” I choke out, the words tasting wrong even as I force them

out.

That was the most intense vision I have ever had because I lived it and felt it, every second of it still clinging to me like it hasn’t

let go yet.

Cole links everybody in the other cars and we all get out just inside the gate.

“what’s going on?” Dom asks walking up.

“I had a vision we were going to be ambushed as we leave the territory, which means two things,” I say, forcing my voice steady even though my chest is still tight.

“either there is a traitor amongst us from the palace or a traitor in Moonveil,” I say.

“because they knew we were leaving today which we just decided today so how would they know to be waiting for us at that exact moment we leave,” I say, my mind racing through it again, trying to make it make sense.

“but who could the traitor be,” Winter says.
