Her voice cut in gently. "I want to make sister feel less lonely after you terminate her pregnancy. She can help me raise our child. In the future, it will be as if she never lost anything. "
"Also one day…"she added with a shy smile" when I give you a daughter you have always dreamt of… we can make sister her handmaid, so she won’t feel useless. "
A moment of silence followed before Zyan pulled her into his arms and kissed her without hesitation, his fingers already undoing her clothes.
"It’s your innocence I can’t get enough of. "he murmured.
"Look at you caring about my lifelong dreams.
If Lianna were half as devoted, she wouldn’t be here now. I am happy to have my heirs but if you can give birth to a daughter for me, I will give you everything. "
A sharp pain sliced through my heart as Zyan's past words echoed in my head.
'Lianna, a son is for politics but a daughter would be my own, the child whom I can spoil endlessly. A daughter like you is my lifelong dream, please accept my love Lianna, I promise to keep you happy.'
I closed my eyes.
A single tear slipping free before I could stop it.
‘Zyan. The one thing you dreamed of is already here, But you…you don’t deserve her! ’
The phone felt heavier than my hands could manage.
I didn’t throw it.
I didn’t cry.
I just sat there, listening to the sound of my blood moving through my ears.
Zyan was trying to destroy me and I wouldn't let him succeed.
I dialed a number then.
"Luna Lianna? The Trade Pact documents are ready. We await your confirmation-”
"The contract is void. Effective immediately. " I cut in.
A sharp inhale answered me.
"Void? Luna, you negotiated this for half a year, the Blood Moon Alpha will have the control over all the territories in south with this!"
"I am no longer the Luna of Blood Moon. My work is no longer theirs to claim. " I said calmly. “I once saved your life and today,I am asking you for a favor. Seven days, get me all the classified border maps, underground passages… all the dirty treaties done under table.”
"…If this leaks, Blood Moon won’t survive the winter Luna. "the voice said hoarsely.
“That’s why I need you to keep it a secret” I replied. “Conceal the cancellation for seven days.”
There was a heavy pause on the other side, the voice finally said."Understood, Luna.The agreement will be nullified quietly. As you once saved my life, this will remain between us."
