Chapter 8

Penulis: Mercy Ashquill
When I arrived in Blackwood territory, I chose a cozy place to settle in.

The view was nothing short of breathtaking. I opened the curtains to the sight of clear blue skies stretching over the mountains.

The snow-covered peaks rose majestically in the distance, surrounded by endless greenery and fresh air.

I had forgotten how much I loved mountains.

As a child, before my parents had died and left me at Crestfall, I used to climb the hills behind our village just to watch the sunrise. I used to

  • After Rebirth, I Quit Being My Alpha’s Shadow Luna and Became the Werewolf Prince’s Mate   Chapter 11

    Later, I heard that Kael had tried everything to recover from the drug's effects. He brought in healers from every territory, searched for every known cure, but nothing worked.Then the pack elders brought Serena to him, hoping she could soothe his heat like before.But it didn't work. Kael used her so brutally that by the time they found her, she was barely alive. The child she was carrying didn't survive.I didn't bother digging for details. I just went on with my life.After that, the Crestfall elders stripped Kael of his Alpha position and cast him out of the pack. No one ever heard from him again.Over the following weeks, Adrian continued to meet me.Though he never said anything directly, it wasn't hard to see his growing interest. He started finding reasons to be near the kitchen, lingering after meals, asking about my day, remembering small details I mentioned in passing.I knew we were fated mates. The bond between us hummed quietly beneath every interaction, growing stronger

  • After Rebirth, I Quit Being My Alpha’s Shadow Luna and Became the Werewolf Prince’s Mate   Chapter 10

    I had just finished separating the wolfberry stems when hurried footsteps echoed from the corridor. A palace servant appeared in the doorway, her face pale, practically running."Miss Elara, Prince Adrian has suddenly fallen ill. The healers are struggling to stabilize him."My stomach dropped.Grabbing my apron, I abandoned what I was doing and followed her.The corridor outside Adrian's chambers was in chaos. Guards lined the walls while servants crowded the entrance, their faces tight with fear. Inside, healers moved frantically around the bed where Adrian lay, his skin ashen, his breathing shallow and uneven.Studying his condition, I realized quickly that ordinary treatment was not working. Whatever was affecting him had settled deep into his wolf, and the healers' remedies were barely touching it."Let me prepare something for him."One of the healers turned to me with visible frustration. "The best healers in the territory have already failed. How can food possibly help?"Despit

    But it seemed Kael didn’t understand rejection. He shook his head and said, "No, I can't let you go. We've been together for so many years. You once said you'd love me for the rest of your life. Why are you leaving me now?"I realized then that he was still clinging to the very history I had spent a lifetime trying to escape. He reached for my arm, but I pulled away before his fingers could touch my skin."I did love you once. But that love died long before I left the pack.""I know you better than anyone, Elara. You cannot possibly have stopped loving me so quickly."His certainty almost made me laugh. He had spent years failing to understand the woman standing beside him, yet he still believed he knew her heart better than she did."What exactly do you expect me to love, Kael? The empty marriage? The Shadow Luna title? The years I spent begging for scraps of your affection?"His expression faltered. He had no answer that could undo what I had endured. Just then, he gripped his arms,

I used to dream about exploring territories beyond our borders, about living a life that belonged entirely to me.Then I became Shadow Luna, and every dream I had ever held was traded for the hope that Kael would one day look at me the way he looked at Serena.But now, breathing in the sharp pine scent, I realized I no longer had to live according to anyone's expectations.I was finally free to go wherever I wanted.I unpacked my things into the cabinet, the familiar motions grounding me. Then, I lay down

    "Serena, Elara is still your sister. Don't you think the way you speak about her is a bit inappropriate?"Serena froze for a moment, looking embarrassed."I—that is not it. It is just Elara was being rude to you that I could not hold back.""Is that so? I have known Elara longer than you. She has never been anyone's doormat and she has never dangled herself in front of any man. Even when you took everything from her, she did not chase after it. So why are you saying these things about her?"Serena's face paled."Kael, I—""We are monsters," he said, his voice hollow. "She does not deserve any of this."His legs gave out beneath him. He sank to the kitchen floor, his body shaking not from the drug this time, but from something far worse.The memory of Elara's face at the birthday celebration flashed through his mind. She had been bleeding. Her hand had been cut open by the same glass that had scratched Serena. And he had not even looked at her.He had not asked if she was hurt. He had n

    The Silver Fern from that night was still in his system. The drug had never fully left, and now its effects were worsening without warning."Elara!"Her name tore from his throat before he could stop it. Silence answered him.He called again, his voice hoarse. "Elara!"Nothing.For years, she had always been there whenever he needed her. Through every attack, every fever, every night his wolf had raged beyond control, Elara had been the one constant he never had to ask for.Now, the silence stretched on, and a cold realization settled in his chest.Elara was truly gone.Turning to the healer who had rushed to his side, Kael gripped the man's collar."Investigate why the drug is still acting on me. It should have faded days ago."The healer checked his pulse, his expression growing increasingly troubled."Alpha, the drug should have faded by now. Serena might have soothed your heat, but it was the shadow luna’s cooking that actually stabilized your system against the Silver Fern. Withou
