Luna almost forgot that her fate was written in the stars. And that she's bound to be with the man she hurt yesterday. She knows so well he was serious that he's gonna kill her. Probably in his true form. Just imagining it makes her fur stand on end.
Today they're going outside to get through further investigation about the incident that happened four days ago, they still don't have leads about who did this. But one thing is for sure. It was an animal spirit.
Luna and Roxanne arrived at the gate and instantly saw two beautiful men standing with their horses. They slowly turned their heads towards them. and the moment Luna met Keane's gaze her heart momentarily stopped.
Probably it's because of her brother's story. The story she was told was rather odd. The animal spirits who came forward into this world started to live as the Royals then probably because of such discrimination with the difference in their abilities and powers, they have engaged in a war between spirits.
"What the hell are you looking at, brat?" He quickly jumped on his horse, giving him a manly figure.
Luna walked closer to him and grabbed his hands to ride behind him. Prince Gabriel and Roxanne did the same thing.
With Lady Catarina giving off a barbaric gaze with the two of them, she hissed, "Why don't you just take me with you, Your Royal Highness?" she said pleading.
"I can't, Milady. It's dangerous out there, I can't let you get hurt." He looked forward and sigh and whispered, "Why do I feel like I'm cheating on her?"
Roxanne heard what he said and chuckled, she put her arms around his waist as they started to move, when Prince Gabriel felt this, he smiled.
The guards opened up the gates for them as they made their way to the house near the forest, The people waves their hands upon Luna and greeted her and Luna did the same, while some bowed their heads as they saw the Princes.
Prince Keane spoke, "A bit overwhelmed here,"
She smiled a bit, "They're all nice," Prince Keane nodded, "But not as nice as you," he uttered,
"What did you just say?" Keane shook his head, "Nothing, brat."
"No, I heard you say something--" Prince Keane instantly whacked the rope and the horse hastily ran forward,
The house near the forest is where Luna used to live before entering the Castle grounds, for some reason, they don't know what motive does the killer has for doing such a crime to Luna's family. They went through the long road of pine trees and finally reached their destination.
"Something's weird," Luna murmured as she dismounted from the horse,
Prince Keane followed her as she stopped by the door, Luna's pulse raced. Keane was looking around vigilantly, and Prince Gabriel and Roxanne were on the lookout.
When Luna entered the house she immediately retreated. Leaving Keane shocked with her reaction,
"What's wrong?" he asked, "Something's telling me it's not safe here, the killer left some shady traces of his,"
Prince Keane sniffled the entrance door, and his calm gaze immediately went sharp as a wolf's eyes. "Something's here, it's better if we go now,"
He grabbed Luna's hands and the moment Luna was about to take the last step of the stair, she disappeared. Gabriel guarded Roxanne and Keane immediately followed the scent of the person who got Luna. He reached the back of the house but found nothing, soon, the faint traces of the scent is slowly fading away. He ran deeper into the forest but the scent has vanished completely. His heart raged with anger as he couldn't protect one person who was holding his hand, he was mad at himself.
He used his instinct, a circle of light suddenly appeared from the ground as he put his left hand in his pocket and his right hand gleamed with a bright blue light as he faded away.
"You alright? seems like it's been a while since I took you on a ride with me,"
Luna opened her eyes, feeling like she's gonna throw up with the fast ride she was in. She looked at the man's face focusing on her with a smile carved on his lips.
Handsome was an understatement, he was gorgeously beautiful. He has such a killer body and his charisma is something else. Unlike Prince Keane, well unfortunately for him the word handsome was an understatement, too. there's no denying that. Keane is is much more gorgeous and beautiful than this guy, His body appearance is something different than any other man and his charisma is sure to make you drop your jaw. But, he's scary. This man standing in front of her seems so gentle and kind.
"B-Brother! W-Why didn't you tell me first that you will pick me up?!" She was shocked by her sudden stammer,
He let out an amused laugh, "I didn't have the time to think about that, cause I missed you so much," he said while patting Luna's hair,
She gave him a straight face and deflect his hands, "Stop that! I'm not a kid anymore!" she pouted,
he sneered, "You're so cute,"
"I need to go back to Keane, he might be looking for me," she glanced down at the ground,
"You're a nine-tailed fox, for now, we still haven't seen your true form, but you know that the Mackenzie tribe of wolves were the one who wiped out our clan,"
"But Lance, he's my fiancee.--"
Lance turned away, "If he ever regains his true form, he is not Prince Keane you know anymore, He's not your fiancee, anymore. He'll never recognize you as Luna, for him you're his mortal enemy, and he will kill you before you say anything else."
He then once again looked at Luna seriously, trying to please her. "I've gained nine tails already, I'm much stronger than Keane and I'll make sure that I'll protect you. so come with me," he held out his hands,
"I won't let that happen," a man suddenly appeared behind Lance...
