Chapter 87

Chapter 87.

Nelly’s POV.

As we arrived at our pack, I stretched my arms and groaned, feeling the stiffness from the journey. I felt a pair of hands wraps around my waist, and I looked up to see Kex’s mischievous smile. He pressed a kiss to my nose, and my cheeks flushed red.

“Stop,” I said, playfully pushing him away. “We’re outside, for goodness‘ sake.”

“Can’t I even kiss my woman?” he said, his tone teasing. His words sent a flutter of butterflies through my stomach..

Harry cleared his throat, and I could see the amusement in his eyes. “Alright, let’s get down to business,” he said, turning his attention to the group.

I stifled a chuckle, shaking my head. I followed the others inside, feeling the stares of the servants and guards upon us.

It was almost as if they were surprised to see us, especially me. I didn’t have the energy to worry about what they thought. I simply wanted to focus on the war.

es on me.

“Congratulations,” one of the maids said. “I heard you’re now the Luna.” I nodded, flashing her a small smile.

“Thank you,” I whispered.

She seemed about to say something when Astel yelled, “Get out!” The words were harsh, and I rolled my eyes.

“I was just going,” the maid stammered. I put my hand on her arm, stopping her. I looked around the room, all eyes on me.
