Chapter 9

作者: Nice Weather
Elena's POV

A year later, I finally carried the last box into the little cabin by the river bend.

The place was small, just a bedroom and a living room, but the windows faced the direction the moon rose from.

Garrett helped me arrange everything and glanced out the window. "The healer's clinic is close by. You won't have to go far for your checkups."

I murmured my thanks. He was quiet for a moment, then added, "The healer says you're recovering well, but you still need more time to rest."

  • Breaking the Bond: My Pup, My Choice   Chapter 9

    Elena's POVA year later, I finally carried the last box into the little cabin by the river bend.The place was small, just a bedroom and a living room, but the windows faced the direction the moon rose from.Garrett helped me arrange everything and glanced out the window. "The healer's clinic is close by. You won't have to go far for your checkups."I murmured my thanks. He was quiet for a moment, then added, "The healer says you're recovering well, but you still need more time to rest.""Don't worry. I'll take care of myself," I told him.He hesitated before mentioning that Ethan had been coming around again, trying to find out where I'd moved."I didn't tell him."He watched my reaction carefully as he said it. My gaze drifted to the river bend outside, its surface washed silver-gray by the moonlight."Good," I said.His expression finally relaxed. "Elena, leaving the wrong person was a good decision."After he left, I was alone in the cabin. Moonlight spilled through the

  • Breaking the Bond: My Pup, My Choice   Chapter 8

    Third-Person POVElena thought everything tied to Ethan was behind her. But two days later, Mia posted an accusation on the pack's group chat.She called Elena heartless. She said Elena was so determined to spite her that she'd thrown away the pup carrying the Redpine bloodline without a second thought. She attached photos of all the custom Amber-themed items she'd had made for the pup.The group chat erupted. Pack members piled on one after another, and the vicious comments kept flooding in like poison-tipped arrows.But the tide didn't last long.Garrett filed a formal statement with the Elder Council on Elena's behalf. The healer's accident report, Mia's order history from every custom shop, and screenshots from the pack group chat were laid out in full.The conversation in the group chat flipped completely."So Mia was planning to turn Elena's pup into some kind of reincarnation of her dead rabbit?""The Alpha went with Mia to a pet crematorium to mourn a rabbit while his p

  • Breaking the Bond: My Pup, My Choice   Chapter 7

    Third-Person POVEthan read through every line, his hand shaking around the phone until he couldn't hold it still anymore. He called Lorraine immediately."Do you have any idea what you've been saying to Mia?"Lorraine fired back without a shred of guilt. "What did I say that was so wrong? You've said it yourself—Mia cared about that pup more than its own mother."Besides, a Redpine pup is a Redpine pup no matter who raises it. I just never expected Elena to lose it."That afternoon, Mia came to the nursery. She was in a black dress, and her eyes were so swollen that she could barely keep them open. She looked as though she'd fall apart at the slightest touch."Ethan, I was wrong."Ethan didn't spare her a glance.She choked out the words. "I just couldn't let go of Amber. But I never meant to hurt Elena."Ethan finally looked at her. "Then do you know how she ended up falling in that corridor?"Mia went rigid."Because I went with you to the pet crematorium to pick up Amber

    Third-Person POVEthan flinched, just barely, as if the words had hit something raw.Garrett pulled a scroll of documents bound with a leather cord from his case and held it out. "The full terms of the mate bond dissolution are in here. If you have any issues with them, raise them soon."Ethan stared down at the scroll for a long time before he managed to speak, his voice unsteady. "The pup is gone… but she can get pregnant again. As long as she forgives me, I'll do whatever it takes."Garrett was quiet for a while. He rarely showed emotion, but this time, there was a coldness in his voice that had never been there before."Ethan, do you still not get it? Elena didn't leave you because she lost the pup. She left because she was never going to let her pup be someone else's replacement."Ethan stood frozen beside the heather, motionless.That night, he went back to the house alone and found his way to the nursery. The door was slightly ajar. He pushed it open, and the room was s

  • Breaking the Bond: My Pup, My Choice   Chapter 5

    Elena's POVGarrett drove me to a place he'd arranged ahead of time.As the car passed through the checkpoint at the edge of the territory, he didn't ask me anything. It wasn't until we were about to get out that he glanced over, concern written across his face. "Do you need to go back to the healer for another check?""No. Everything that needed to be done is done," I said.The place wasn't big, but it felt warmer than the "home" Ethan and Mia had decorated together.I left my suitcase in the corner of the bedroom and sat on the edge of the bed, staring out at the moon just beginning to rise.My phone buzzed in my pocket. Ethan's name flashed across the screen. I looked at it for a moment, then hit decline.He called four more times. I turned the phone off entirely.Early the next morning, Garrett knocked on my bedroom door with two cups of hot herbal tea. He glanced out the window. "Ethan's downstairs. He's been standing there for about half an hour."He handed me a cup. "Wa

  • Breaking the Bond: My Pup, My Choice   Chapter 4

    Elena's POVWhen I pushed the front door open, a slideshow of Amber's old videos was playing on loop on the TV screen. Mia was curled up on the couch, wiping her eyes, and Ethan sat beside her murmuring something soft.He stood up when he saw me come in. "Why do you look so rough?"He frowned. "Is something wrong with the pup?""It's nothing. I'm just tired today."I didn't tell him the pup was gone. He didn't pick up on anything and said casually, "Oh, Mia wants to hear the pup's heartbeat. Go get the monitor."I stopped walking. "That's too bad. She's never going to hear it."Ethan blinked. "What's that supposed to mean?"Mia suddenly pulled a custom anklet out of her pocket with the name "Amber" engraved on it. "Stop joking around. Look, I already had this made for Amber."I walked straight over, snatched the anklet out of her hand, and tossed it into the ashes in the fireplace.Ethan's expression changed completely. "Have you lost your mind? Why are you taking this out on
