Chapter 8

Penulis: Shirley
[Caleb’s POV]

Caleb was in the pack's Council Hall, discussing border defenses with the elders.

A notification suddenly pinged in his mind-link.

It was a message from Elena.

What's she playing at now? he thought impatiently as he opened it.

But as the recording began to play, the color drained from his face.

Lydia's voice came through, crystal clear: "Since you were twelve, I've been putting wolfsbane in your food..."

"The silver powder in your uniform, the push off the cliff... It was all my work. My masterpiece."

"Watching you grow weaker day by day has brought me so much joy..."

The recording stopped abruptly.

The hall fell deathly silent.

The elders stared at each other, too stunned to speak.

Just then, a violent agony erupted in Caleb's chest.

It felt as if his heart had been smashed by a blunt object, a piece of his very soul brutally torn away.

"Argh!" he let out a pained roar, and a spray of blood erupted from his mouth.

In that instant, the mate bond shattered completely.

  • After My Wolf Faded, My Alpha Went Crazy   Chapter 13

    Three days passed.Lydia huddled in the corner of the silver cell, her body covered in burns from the chains.From her corner, she remembered her final trump card.The pack had lost its only Luna and was at its most vulnerable.And she was the only strong she-wolf capable of fulfilling the Luna's duties.So, she put on a display of weakness for the guards."I know the Alpha hates me now, but please, tell him one thing.""The Black Moon Pack is in decline without its Luna.""And I am the only one who can help the Alpha restore the pack.""I am willing to spend the rest of my life atoning for my sins. Please, just give me a chance to serve the pack."However, when Caleb appeared before the silver cell, his eyes held only ice-cold hatred.He was unmoved, his lip curling in a sneer as he called out her transparent ambition."Still scheming? Lydia, do you really think I can't see through you?""You killed my mate, my only Luna, and now you want to take her place?""The Black Moon Pack would

  • After My Wolf Faded, My Alpha Went Crazy   Chapter 12

    My soul floated in the sky, watching everything slowly unfold.Just as Caleb wept over my body, the villa's main door was pushed open.Lydia walked in with a cheerful spring in her step, that familiar, triumphant smile already on her face.She had no idea what had happened."Caleb, I'm back!"She called out sweetly, moving to throw herself into his arms as she always did."The pack elders' meeting went so smoothly today. I think I've convinced them to support me...""Oh, by the way, I saw Elena the day before yesterday.""She was hanging around with some rogue Omega on the border of our territory, hasn't been to training in days.""Alpha, please don't be too angry with Elena, okay?""She's probably just acting out. You can give her a light punishment..."Her words died in her throat.Caleb shot to his feet, the immense power of an Alpha erupting from him in an instant.Unprepared, Lydia was thrown back by the force of it, slamming hard against the wall.She clutched her bruised shoulde

    Caleb couldn't read anymore.His hands trembled, and tears streamed unbidden down his face."Elena..." he whispered, stroking my cold cheek. "I'm sorry... I am so sorry..."From above, I watched it all unfold quietly.I watched his tears fall on my pale face.I watched his pained and desperate expression.Was this what I wanted?For him to regret it, for him to suffer?But seeing him like this, my heart felt no satisfaction.Only emptiness and sorrow.Because it was all too late.Caleb's nails dug deep into his palms, and blood dripped onto the floor.The drops fell onto the back of my pale hand, a stark, red contrast."I will make Lydia pay," he said through gritted teeth. "I will make her wish she had never been born."His words made my soul stir.Though I was dead, at least...At least the truth was out.In the sorrowful atmosphere, my phone rang.At first, John thought it was a telemarketer.But after listening for a few seconds, he shakily put it on speaker."Hello, Elena? This is

  • After My Wolf Faded, My Alpha Went Crazy   Chapter 10

    [Elena’s POV]I floated in the air, watching everything unfold in the diner below.Without another word, Rosa led them through the restaurant.Through one door, then another.The last door opened to reveal a body lying on a slab, covered by a white sheet.Caleb and my parents froze.The air seemed to solidify."What is this! Why did you bring us here? What kind of sick joke is this!"Caleb's voice trembled, thick with a powerful sense of foreboding.He rushed forward in a fury and ripped the white sheet away.When he saw the familiar face, his entire world collapsed.It was his mate. His Luna.She lay there, looking as peaceful as if she were only sleeping.Her lips were curved in the faintest of smiles.As if she had finally been freed from all her pain.But she would never wake up again.The final shattering of the mate bond struck his soul like a lightning bolt.The pain was a thousand times more intense than any physical injury.It was as if someone was carving open his heart, inch

  • After My Wolf Faded, My Alpha Went Crazy   Chapter 9

    Lydia stared at the moonlight flowers, her heart hammering against her ribs.If she refused to touch them, she would be admitting she had lied.But if she touched them and had no reaction, the truth would be exposed anyway.Trapped, with no way out, her pupils constricted in fear."Alpha... I'm not feeling well today...""Touch it," Caleb commanded, his tone leaving no room for argument.His Alpha command left her no choice.Lydia reached out a trembling hand and brushed her fingertips against a petal.One second... two seconds... three...Nothing happened.Her skin didn't redden or swell. There was no allergic reaction.Not even the slightest discomfort.Lydia realized the web of lies she had so carefully woven for years...was finally unraveling.She snatched her hand back as if burned, and the flowers fluttered to the floor."I... I must be feeling stronger today...""I'm still not feeling well, I'm going to go rest upstairs..."With that, she practically fled the room.Lydia frantic
