Chapter 31

Cassian's Pov

Rowan had dared me. He had pushed me over and over again. And now, it was the claim of his mentally ill mother leaving the pack.

But without any doubt, I felt Elara's scent over the pack. And when he dashed off, I knew it was best I followed.

But when we got to the room she was supposedly kept in, it was empty. I stood in the doorway of the quarters at Rowan's pack, staring at the rumpled sheets. She was gone, and had used her Luna aura on the poor maid. But who exact

    Chapter 47Elara's Pov“Ambushed by who?" I swallowed. Another issue. My outfit, now covered in Cassian's blood.“I couldn't tell who they were, Beta Adrian, but they moved around like shadows. I couldn't see them or make them out, no matter how hard I tried.” The vial dropped from my hands.The Shadow Packs… they were here. I knew it, from the human world. And their presence always announced war. It meant war was coming. They hardly ever waged war. If they did, it only meant something that belonged to them was here. My eyes fell on the jade ring. Was this the reason they were after me? A girl gifted me this ring sixteen years ago, during the first war with them. Had she stolen it or picked it up?My eyes met Adrian's scrutinizing gaze, but I looked away immediately. Yet he still walked toward me. I was forced to look at him, and now his face was pale."Luna, if the Shadow Pack is involved, I believe they're not here for Cassian."I stared at him and gulped, like I didn't know. "Then

    Chapter 46Elara's PovI stared at Cassian slowly fading from my hands and whispering those words to me. ‘My father was dead.’ But Rowan told me something different, or was he trying to cheer me up and not add to my burden? I let go of Cassian's body, it dropped to the floor.His blood was black. I hadn't seen something like this before. The elders were screaming and mouthing some words in the background. But I couldn't hear or make out the words they said. My focus was solely on my dad. He couldn't be dead, no. Slowly, I crept away from Cassian's body.He stretched his hands out to mine, I looked away. Pushing the tears, threatening to leave my eyes.“Luna, what are you doing? He is reaching for you, or did you also kill the Alpha?" Slowly, I raised my head to Kyle. His eyes were furious.I pressed my palms to Cassian's chest now, pushing down my grief.His heart stuttered, once, twice and then it kept beating. Barely. His lips were blue and his face was gray. The poison was spreadin

  • Bound by the Alpha's Contract   45: Your Father. He is dead.

    Chapter 45Elara's PovWhen Nicole said those words, they hung in the air like smoke from a fire. It was too thick. I stared at her. Well, because I hadn't heard well. I didn't hear her clearly.She shoved her phone into my hands and the screen glowed from a live news broadcast. Cassian's face filled it. My eyes fell on his broad shoulders, dark coat, and pack crest hanging behind him.He had called a press meeting for me… to judge me.The camera zoomed in on him, and his jaw was tight, with empty eyes. The same look he wore every time he looked at me."Justice will be served," he said into the microphones. His voice was flat and final, leaving no room for pity."The accused Luna will be held accountable. An innocent pup has been lost. The pack demands answers, and I will give them."Innocent pup. Lost. He believes her. He always believed her. But what if Seris did that to get rid of me? Just because I've found out her secret? The thought haunted me. Maybe she was doing this all becau

    Chapter 44 Elara's PovNow, Cassian let go of my hands and ran straight for Seris. I did too, but before I could run a little six steps, Adrian's strong hands shot out and gripped me like a thief who had committed a felony.“Let me go, Adrian. Now, I command you." But he didn't move a step and just held on stronger, not daring to let me go. I struggled against his grip, all to no avail.The crowd increased. It was total frenzy and chaos outside. Adrian held me still, leading me back to the vehicle."The Luna is a murderer.""I knew nothing good would come from her. A witch claiming to be a werewolf. A witch who had eaten all the pups in her womb and is out to eat ours.""Our children aren't safe anymore. Burn the witch. Kill her." And all of a sudden the people who had once worshipped the ground I walked on now turned against me. But Seris, her hair… her white flowing hair.Who was she? Why had she always worn a wig? Is this a coincidence? Now, I felt the black vein crawl deeper into

  • Bound by the Alpha's Contract   43: Luna Elara has killed my pup! The Bitter truth.

    Chapter 43Elara's Pov*Two days later.I arrived at the pack house three hours ago, and the love I received was overwhelming, like they knew I was leaving. For a moment, I considered… No. I can't stay back.Nicole's love especially was massive, and right now I was staring at an overflowing tray of fruits. She had outdone herself.She made soup, bread, fruits, vitamins, and a protein shake … all I hadn't asked for in just three hours. She stood at the foot of my bed, her arms crossed, watching me like a hawk watching a mouse.“Luna, please eat, you need it." I laughed heartily."Nicole, you're exaggerating. My body has recovered.""You were in the hospital for two days, Luna. With a head injury. And memory loss." I smiled. The memory loss had faded. Mostly. I still couldn't remember the nurse's name, but I remembered everything that mattered. The pups. The jade ring. James and everything. Cassian's last betrayal… I remembered that more.He didn't come. He promised, but he warmed anot

  • Bound by the Alpha's Contract   42: The Luna has Fibroids Not Pups

    Chapter 42Elara's PovI've never been this scared before. The fear I felt can't be compared to that I felt after the disappearance of my dad or the death of my sister.The doctor's words hung in the air, haunting me. I was struggling to breathe and keeping my cool at the same time.“The Luna is…” The doctor said, his eyes went back to the folder. My heart stopped and my hand pressed harder against my stomach. It was a reflex I just couldn't control. He knows. He's going to say it. Cassian will know I'm pregnant. He'll know I broke the contract and he would know about my pups. He may harm them. He may harm me.The snow outside the hospital window had turned the world white. Cold seeped through the glass, but inside my chest was hot. I was sweating despite the cold.The doctor looked at the paper. Then at me and back at Cassian."The Luna is suffering from severe exhaustion and low blood pressure. There are signs of fibroids in her uterine wall. That explains the nausea and the fatigue
