Forsaken Luna's Second Chance Chapter 32: Be fast
BEATRICEThe food sits untouched on the tray, its warmth long since faded. I stare at it, willing myself to eat, to do something normal — something that reminds me I’m still in control of something.But I can’t.My stomach turns every time I look at the plate. Even the smell makes me nauseous.Because how could I eat when I haven’t seen Bailey?Not once.Not since he arrived.Enzo.The name alone makes my throat close. He’s here. In this territory. Breathing the same air. And Bailey… she’s just a few halls away. Vulnerable. Unprotected. If he finds her—if he even suspects—it’s over.Everything I’ve done to escape him, every risk I’ve taken, every lie I’ve told… it’ll all come undone.I press the heels of my palms into my eyes. I can’t lose her. I won’t.But what can I do from this room? Locked in, silenced, waiting like prey?I want to ask Maxwell to let me see her—just for a moment. But after everything between us, after the fight, after the truth he dragged out of me… I doubt he’ll b

BEATRICEThalia’s laugh rings out, sharp and vicious like nails scraping across stone.“So it really is you,” she spits. “You traitor.”She yanks my arm tighter, shoving me back against the wall. I stumble but don’t fall, not yet. I’m too stunned to even speak. Her nails bite into my wrist as her face twists into a satisfied sneer.“You’ve got some nerve,” she continues, her tone venomous. “Daring to seek refuge with the Lycans like some poor little victim. Pathetic.”I struggle, trying to wrench free, but my body feels too slow. Too empty. I haven’t eaten. I haven’t slept. And worst of all — I have no wolf. I can’t summon strength that isn’t there. She knows it. I know it.And that’s what terrifies me.Of all people, I didn’t expect her. Not now. Not here.“Shouldn’t you be stuck to Enzo’s side like glue?” I manage to say, trying to keep my voice steady, even as my heart pounds like thunder in my ears.Thalia’s smirk deepens. “Oh, I’ve already mind-linked him.”My breath hitches.“He’

BEATRICEI stare at Enzo like I’m seeing him for the first time.His words echo inside me, but my mind refuses to absorb them. Then you must come back with me.What?I don’t understand. What could he possibly want with me now?He said our daughter was gone. He believed it. That should’ve been the end of it. So why does he still want me?But then I see it in his eyes. That cold, mechanical cruelty he wears so well.He doesn’t want me back for love.He wants to make an example of me.“You betrayed me,” Enzo says, almost bored. “You betrayed your Alpha. You betrayed the pack.”His voice is flat, almost lazy, but every word drips venom. “The punishment for betrayal is execution.”My blood runs cold.He means it.He’s not dragging me back out of some twisted claim of love. He’s going to take me back and have me publicly killed. Because in his story, I’m not the abused, forgotten wife—I’m the traitor. And he’s the noble Alpha, the savior, the one doing what’s best for the pack.To them, he’s

BEATRICEMy heart almost stop, and I can hear nothing at that moment. “You—you promised,” I say, the words barely making it past the lump in my throat. “You promised you would protect me.”But Maxwell says nothing. Doesn’t defend me. Doesn’t even look at me. He turns and walks away like it costs him nothing. And just like that, I’m no longer a person — just a favor that wasn’t worth keeping.I don’t remember how I get back to my room. One moment, I’m standing in that hall, and the next, I’m sitting stiffly on the edge of the bed, staring down at my hands. My body moved without thinking, and now it feels like I’ve landed inside someone else’s nightmare. The world outside is quiet, but inside me, everything is shaking. My pulse pounds in my ears, and there’s a hollow ache in my chest that I don’t know how to fill.The warrior who let me see Bailey earlier brings me water. She looks hesitant, maybe worried she’ll be punished just for being near me, but I shake my head. “You’re safe,” I m

ENZOBeatrice actually jumped.I stand at the edge of the cliff, staring at the mist below, my hands trembling. For a moment, I don’t believe what I just saw. She wouldn’t… She couldn’t…Gamma rushes over. “Alpha, we can’t see the bottom. The river’s too rough—anyone who jumps is as good as dead.”No. I shake my head, refusing to accept it. “Search below. All of you. I don’t care how far it is—find her.”Beta Lukas steps forward, cautious. “We’ve already delayed too long. There are urgent matters in the pack that need your attention.”I ignore him, eyes still locked on the cliff’s edge.Thalia comes up behind me and wraps her arms around my shoulders. “She’s a traitor,” she says softly. “Even if we brought her back, she’d be executed. You did what you had to do.”But that was never my intention.I didn’t want her dead.I can’t say that out loud—not in front of them. I’m the Alpha. I have to act like this was justice, not loss. Like it was for the pack.But all I wanted was to bring her

MAXWELLShe’s finally asleep.Curled into herself, her face half-hidden beneath my coat, breath slow but uneven. Even in rest, her brows are slightly furrowed — like she’s still fighting something in her dreams. It doesn’t surprise me. Beatrice has been fighting since the moment I met her.I sit a few feet away, watching in silence.There’s a strange stillness in this cave, tucked deep into the cliffside. Outside, the wind howls over stone and water, but in here, it’s quiet. Too quiet. It makes me think more than I want to. About the jump. About what she’s been through. About how close I came to losing her.I’ve fought wars. Killed enemies. Seen more blood than I can remember. But nothing tightened my chest like the moment I thought Enzo had gotten his hands on her again. I hadn’t even realized how panicked I was until she was gone.And now?Now she’s here, alive, asleep a few feet away—and I’m still shaken.I shift slightly, stretching my arm out before I can think better of it.

BEATRICE"Mom, Dad hasn't been home for a month. Other boy-wolves said that he had another family and didn't want us anymore." My daughter Bailey looks up at me with wide eyes.I see her blinking fast to keep them from spilling over. I feel heartbroken."My silly girl, you know your dad's busy. He's the Alpha, and he has a whole pack to look after." I hold Bailey’s face in my hands, "and he won't forget that today is our Bailey sweetheart's birthday."Today is my little girl's birthday. How do I convince Bailey that what those annoying boys who like to bully others say is not true? Or part of it?Her dad indeed doesn’t care enough to show up. That he never wanted this family in the first place.My husband is Alpha Enzo of the Silverfang Pack, a perfect Alpha who puts his duty above all else. But to Bailey and me, he’s the man who’s never there when we need him.Three hours later, the sky is already ink-dark. Bailey barely keeps her eyes open. It’s way past her bedtime. But she still l
Last Updated : 2025-04-03Forsaken Luna's Second Chance Chapter 2 Like I was nothing.
BEATRICE Enzo couldn’t even wish Bailey a happy birthday. But he’s here celebrating another child’s birthday. What kind of father is he? The pain I felt all day snaps into a silent rage. My hands clench so tightly that my knuckles turn white. As Bailey’s mom, this is unacceptable. I need some answers! I storm into the restaurant, my heart pounding so hard it drowns out everything else. I think of all the ways to confront Enzo and Thalia. They’re not getting away with this bullshit. But the woman at the front desk quickly blocks my path. "Excuse me, ma’am," she says with a tight smile. "Do you have a reservation?" I barely slow down. "I don’t. This is a personal matter. I’m looking for my husband." My gaze stays locked on Enzo. He smirks as he listens to Thalia. When she laughs, he chuckles too, shaking his head like she just said the funniest thing in the world. My stomach twists as if I ate bad sushi. "I’m sorry, ma’am, but I can’t let anyone in without a reservation," t

ENZO“She’s Beatrice. I saw her face.”Thalia’s voice is steady, confident. For once, I’m glad she’s not just being dramatic.I slowly turn to look at her, my jaw tightening. “You’re sure?”She nods without hesitation. “Positive. The moment I pulled that veil, I knew. It’s her. Her hair, her eyes, her expression when she realized I saw her — Enzo, she didn’t even try to deny it.”I stare past her, my pulse starting to pound in my ears. My hands curl into fists, and rage begins to surge — slow, hot, undeniable.Beatrice.Here.Of all the places she could’ve run, she chooses this one. She hides behind the Lycans. Behind Maxwell. Like she thinks this is a game she can win. Like she thinks I won’t tear through whatever walls she’s hiding behind and drag her back myself.The gall. The audacity. That little traitorous wolf.I gave her everything. My name. My protection. A home. And this is how she repays me? By vanishing with my daughter and playing maid to the Lycans?“She’s dead to me,” I
Forsaken Luna's Second Chance Chapter 30: Shame
BEATRICEMy body moves before my mind catches up. I snatch the veil back to my face, hands trembling.I hear chairs scrape against the floor. Maxwell rises. His voice cuts through the tension like a blade.“What do you think you’re doing?”Thalia doesn’t flinch, doesn’t look the least bit sorry. “I — I just thought she looked familiar,” she says with a shrug, like tearing off someone’s mask in the middle of a negotiation is nothing more than adjusting a crooked tie. “Someone our pack’s been looking for. I didn’t mean to cause a scene.”Bullshit. She knew exactly what she was doing.Maxwell’s tone drops low, sharp with warning. “If you can’t respect my people, then there’s no need for this negotiation to continue.”Enzo looks like he’s about to say something, but Thalia jumps in first. “I apologize. I didn’t mean to overstep.” Her voice is syrupy now, sickly sweet. “It was a mistake.”Maxwell turns his eyes on her, hard and unyielding. “Leave.”Thalia blinks. “What?”“You’ve disrupted
Forsaken Luna's Second Chance Chapter 29: Classic strategy
BEATRICEMy heartbeat thuds painfully in my chest. I keep my posture steady even though every instinct in my body is screaming at me to run.“I asked to wear it,” I speak up, keeping my voice even. “I didn’t sleep well last night. My face broke out in a rash. I didn’t want to distract anyone.”Maxwell says nothing, but I can feel his silent approval from where he stands beside me.Enzo doesn’t answer right away. I can feel the weight of his stare pressing against my skin like a blade. But eventually, he makes a dismissive sound and looks back toward Maxwell.“Let’s get on with it then,” he mutters.But Thalia — she doesn’t look away. She watches me with a kind of cold curiosity that prickles the back of my neck. Like she senses something. Like she knows what I am, even if she can’t prove it yet.I keep my gaze on the table as Maxwell opens the meeting.“I’ll make this simple,” Maxwell says. “Your Gamma is alive. Unharmed.”Gamma?That’s who the prisoner was? The one we passed in the ha
