The Luna Trials by Marissa Gilbert
Chapter 44
Long Live The Royals
Bjorn’s eyes scanned the space around him calmly. As if he wasn’t in immediate danger. As if the presence of not one but two Lycan Kings was nothing to him.
He dropped Brigit to his feet, losing interest in her. The woman almost clawed her own chest, trying to get some air into her lungs.
She was lucky to survive as it was.
Kai and Gideon both growled again, warning the bear, letting him know his days were numbered. They saw what kind of chaos he caused and were ready to end him right there and now.
“On your knees!” Gideon ordered, eyes glowing golden. “Do it quietly, and your life will be sparedi”
A chuckle escaped the white bear leader, and Savannah had a bad feeling about it as his gaze grazed over her. Calm, he was too calm. This kind of confidence could only mean he was sure he would be walking out of here unharmed.
However, this was ridiculous! She might have had trouble defeating him on her own, but now there were three royal Lycans in the
room and a few Alphas to top that off. Not to mention the feisty contenders who all looked like they wished to take part in his
execution.
Bjorn knew all that, and he still remained uncancerned.
“So temptingl” He stepped over Penelope’s body which was on his way again. “Did you make an offer like that to my brother before you killed him, Western King?”
Everyone tensed as his red eye gleamed in the dimmed lighting of the ancient temple. They all had been thinking about the same
person now.
“You are Castiel’s brother,” Riannon entered the shrine, and Gideon growled, trying to step in front of her for protection, but she only
placed her palm on his shoulder and didn’t move an inch from where she stood. Those two had an understanding between them, and
although Gideon wanted his wife safe and sound, as far away from here as possible, he had to respect her choices. And she chose to join the fight alongside her family as the Alpha that she was.
“Ah, Queen Riannon Stormhold in the flesh. I thought getting to you in person would be much more complicated.” Bjorn sneered,
taking a step forward. The remaining warriors snarled at him; however, everyone’s movements were restricted because of the narrow
bridge between the two platforms. There weren’t too many left, but with the royals in the room, their chances of winning were huge now.
“It’s bold of you to just arrive here like that in front of me.”
“I am not going to die or get hurt today,” the Queen stated calmly, and now he stared at her with genuine interest. “He spoke about
you a lot, you know.” Ria tilted her head to have a better look at him.
“He didn’t speak much about you,” Bjorn countered. “Which only means he treasured you, considering how much trouble he got
into thanks to you. My silly brother was probably afraid I would want to take you for myself. He was a bit insecure like that.”
Gideon’s eyes flashed gold as he bared his teeth, but that only made the white bear chuckle.
“Relax” he lifted his hands up in the air. “I am not interested in what belonged to my brother. I have my own prize in mind.” Bjorn’s
gaze locked with Savannah’s once again, and both Lycan Kings growled menacingly, realising what he meant.
“Over my dead body!” Kai was next to her in an instant, pushing the three girls behind his back, his hand brushing over Savannah possessively. Gideon followed him to the centre of the bridge, ready to rip the enemy to shreds.
.
. “Funny you should say that because this is exactly my plan!” Darius threw his head back and laughed wholeheartedly.
***Why don’t you come closer and try bringing it to life?” Kai scoffed, knowing there was no chance in hell the bear would do this. Although Darius had spent a lot of time on his territory lately, Kai had trouble meeting him face to face for months. Every time he was close, Bjarn changed his location. This chase had been going on for years, and there was no end to it. However, right now, he was close. So close. It could altend tonight. The white bears would be broken easily without their scheming ruler. This was why the Norther King
was so surprised that Bjorn was still here, with a smug expression plastered over his face.
“I am afraid you will be too busy for that.” The bear king’s grin deepened. This couldn’t be good.
“Sawy, take the other women and leave,” kai found her hand without looking at her as he had to keep his eyes on his foe and gave it
a squeeze.
“I have a better idea!” Bjorn got angry for the first time as he observed them. “Come here, Savannah, and I will give you the best gift.
You can choose the one who will survive out of your family. Your brother or your pregnant sister-in-law.”
Silence engulfed the room as Sawy’s head snapped to Riannon. She already knew, of course, but this wasn’t something they
announced to everyone. This was a secret. It was essential for safety reasons, yet Bjorn was aware. It started to seem like traitors were everywhere.
“I will repeat myself just once.” The white bear’s healthy eye found the Princess, immediately getting darker. “Come to me now, leave this place with me, and I will spare one of them.”
“Let’s start with the fact that you are not leaving this place!” Gideon was barely holding himself back. “Not after you threatened my
