The Luna Trials by Marissa Gilbert

Chapter 36

Savvy was so comfortable in Kai’s arms as they were cuddling on the sofa with a laptop on a small nearby table. She couldn’t believe he was hiding that from her, and the moment she discovered it in one of the drawers, she went online to check what was happening at The Luna Trials.

“Why do you want to watch this?” he grunted.

“Because!” she scoffed and wriggled, getting even cosier against his warm body. “I am a part of it, remember?”

“Not anymore,” he growled softly into her ear and nibbled her earlobe. “The Luna Trials are over. I have my Luna with me already.”

“Well, the world isn’t aware yet!” she giggled and stretched her hand to click on the play button.

The faces of Claude and Chloe wearing matching green suits made the princess frown. The twins were polished as always and ready to entertain whether people wanted it or not.

“Why were those two chosen to do this again?” She asked the King next to her as he lazily brushed her hair with his fingers.

“They are professionals,” he replied, and she snorted.

“Are they?” Savannah shot him a reproachful gaze. He had to know that they were biased at all times.

“They make any show a show,” Kai had to admit. “I think Elene wanted more publicity for this event and with the correct light on our family. We don’t do these things often, and it was one of a kind opportunity.”

“Maybe you should be doing it more often then?” The girl chuckled. “Gideon and ! hate interviews and public appearances, but we do it from time to time to let people see us and feel like they know us.”

“See,” he pulled her closer and kissed the top of her head. “This is exactly why I need a Luna.”

“Oh, take Petra then. She will give you the show of your life every day!” Savvy mocked him, and he tickled her as punishment, making her giggle until she teared up and gave up.

“No, thanks,” the northern King grunted, bringing her back to her place next to him. “When I make my choice, it’s final. You are all I need.”

She hoped he would say that, and it was so satisfying to hear that again. Everything was so perfect lately that Savvy was afraid it was too perfect. Life had never been this

colourful for her. She thought she was happy at some point in her life before Zack. She thought everything was over right after her disgusting mate ruined all her expectations about life and love. However, what was happening now was beyond her wildest dreams.

They were happy. Excessively, overwhelmingly, immensely happy. So happy that she couldn’t help but feel guilty to be this blissful every day. Kai may not have been her true mate, but he sure as hell made her feel loved, needed and safe.
