Chapter 5
In the next moment, Cyrus fell to his knees, trembling as he cradled me in his arms.
As the Alpha King, he had never knelt to anyone before, but now he seemed to care about nothing else. All he could see was

I wanted to reply to him, but I couldn’t. My mouth had already disappeared, and my shoulders would soon be gone too, so he
couldn’t hold onto me anymore, either.
Shaking his head in pain, he screamed, “Don’t die, Marina! You’re not allowed! I haven’t had the chance to see you in wedding dress, nor tell the world that you were my Luna! We haven’t told each other we loved each other yet…
“Speak, Marina! Tell me everything, and I’ll believe you… Please, don’t die!”
Tears slid down Cyrus’s cheeks. He turned to his father, clinging to a final shred of hope. “Dad, you said to put her in
seawater?”
