Elian's POV
*****
An hour after the Alpha king's death, the palace was quiet. Eerily quiet.
All the staff members hid themselves and maintained silence in mourning, just as tradition stipulated.
And as for the rest of Lunaria? Well—
"This is Cristal Ravenheart here with the late-night broadcast for the Lunarian News Network." The news anchor—whose body was projected onto the centre of Elian's room—spoke with a tense expression.
Elian, Lucian, Aurora, Kyren and Axel were gathered in Elian's room, most sitting on couches around while Elian and Kyren sat at the edge of the bed.
Lucian was the only one standing, his arms folded in front of his chest and his expression oddly stoic for someone who had just lost his father.
Aurora still cried, using a handkerchief to wipe the little tears streaming down her cheeks.
"I come tonight with breaking news." The news anchor continued. "Rumours have begun circulating from Moon Haven City. Within the walls of the Lunarian palace."
