AMBER.

“If there’s wolfsbane in it, it could only be traced within 24 hours in your bloodstream, but less time if it’s just a small dosage, so we cannot wait until tomorrow.” I tried to explain in one breath as I helped him into his clothes.

“John would never…” He began, but he didn’t finish his words.

“That’s why I’m asking you if you really know him well enough to trust him.”

He said nothing this time, but I could feel his Alpha aura rising. Of course, if I were right, then he was betrayed by the man he trusted for the last two years.

“I mindlinked Drake to drive us. I’m not letting you drive.” He said after a while.

I nodded my head while I walked toward his desk and picked up all the cream canisters that I could grab.

ZACH.

“There’s a faint trace of wolfsbane in your bloodstream. It’s too faint that I cannot determine when it was absorbed by your body.” Paris explained as we sat in her office.

We had been in this hospital for the last two hours. Nadine and Xander, together

  • HEART OF A TRUE LUNA   128. The Offer Pt2

    ZACH. “Can I talk to you without our Betas?” Jace asked. “Sure.”He then looked at Tyler and Arlo and nodded at them. The two nodded back before they walked toward the door. But before they could leave, I was not able to stop myself. “Tyler…” I waited for him to turn around before I continued. “I apologize for what I did at your union. I was…”“No harm done, Alpha.” He smiled at me and nodded his head. “I was not upset, and neither was Catherine.”“Congratulations on the Claiming and your union,” I added.His smile grew wider before he bowed his head, letting it stay down for a while before he spoke. “Thank you, Alpha. We will leave you and Alpha Jace now.”I watched as both Betas left and closed the door. My eyes remained on it until Jace spoke. “Three weeks, right?”I nodded.“What are your plans?”“Just waiting to step down.”“Are you staying here after?” He asked, and my eyes darted to him. I didn’t expect the conversation to go this way. I thought it’d be another repeat of what

  • HEART OF A TRUE LUNA   127. The Offer Pt1

    ZACH.Amber rushed out of the room, and I didn’t call after her. I didn’t have any energy for more discussion. Maybe it was for the better that we had time apart so we could both think before talking about all of this again. It didn’t take long before Arlo came. I was about to mindlink Arlo, but he had arrived. It seemed he had his own reason for coming here.“Alpha…” He greeted me with a nod of his head. “Is Luna Amber okay?”I nodded. “We just had a small argument.”“It’s been happening a lot lately.”“This whole blood contract is stressing her out.”“Her? Or you? If I based it on how you are both acting these days, I can tell that the Luna is handling it rather well compared to you.”“What is that supposed to mean?”“She still proceeds with her day. Doing her routine and making sure everyone in the packhouse is doing well and is okay. While you…”“While me?”“You are hiding in your office again.”“I have things to do.”“I’m sure you have. I know that. I’m your Beta, but I also kno

  • HEART OF A TRUE LUNA   126. Plan B Pt2

    AMBER.A car stopped at the grounds exactly as I exited the front door. The passenger door opened, and Amara stepped out. Jace also came out of the driver’s seat. “What are you doing here?” I asked, my eyes shifting to her and to the door of the backseat that opened, waiting for whoever was there.Tyler came out, and then Catherine. Her stomach was already so big that I felt she would give birth any time. Then, from the other side, the door opened as well, and Cassidy jumped out.“What are you guys doing here?” I asked, and this time I rested my hands on my hips as I smiled broadly. My eyes welled up with tears because it was only then that I realized how much I had missed them. It had been two years since we graduated from high school, and our lives had taken so many different turns that we barely saw each other, when before all of this, we were always together.“We missed you. And since we know you can’t visit us, we decided to bring the party to you.” Cassidy said excitedly. M

  • HEART OF A TRUE LUNA   125. Plan B Pt1

    AMBER.We didn’t attend the other days of Estelle’s trial, and she was not sent back here either. She would remain in the Council’s custody until her case is closed and decided. Everything I heard on the first day only pointed to one thing—there was still no way we could vindicate Alpha Grant that he had manipulated the Blood Contract. Even under the Alpha’s oath, his name was never mentioned. Estelle was also a minor when she committed the offense and thus would be given more leniency. To be honest, I didn’t care anymore what punishment would be given to her. I could already tell that she did what she had to because she thought it was her only way to get a better life and be treated well. So I was leaving everything to Uncle Jake to handle her, the same way John was left under their custody. Zach and I had better things to do. We had less than a month left, so we are putting our focus on things we can still do something about. “Okay, let’s try…” I clapped my hands, letting them r

  • HEART OF A TRUE LUNA   124. Valid Pt2

    ZACH.“You mentioned earlier that you didn’t know it was a wolfsbane.”“I didn’t know. I was just given one, and he said it would not harm her but would just delay Amber’s wolf from coming out.”“Did you know harming a wolf is a heinous crime?”“No. I was not aware of that. I thought, as long as Amber is not harmed, then it’s okay.”“May I know your intention for wanting to delay Lady Amber’s wolf from surfacing?”“There are many reasons. First, she whined too much about Alpha Zach and how she wanted her wolf out to see if she was mated to him. Alpha Zach broke up with her, and she couldn’t accept it. I got irritated, so I finally asked for Gray’s help to make sure she wouldn’t get her wolf.”Estelle made a wrong move with that. Amber’s expression hardened. I wanted to believe she was already softening her heart to her, but with the last statement, it looked like she was back on Amber’s bad list.“And the other reason?”“Also, because of the Blood Contract with Alpha Zach.”One of the

    ZACH.The day of Estelle’s hearing finally came. She was already out of the territory by early morning, picked up by a representative of the Council.Her scheduled hearing was at two in the afternoon.Amber and I were already at the building, just waiting for us to be allowed into the tribunal room.Today would just be all Estelle, and they didn’t need anything from Amber. We would simply be listening to the proceedings.Cyrus would be the one representing Amber. Unlike in the human court, the Council only needed someone of the ranks to represent himself or someone. Or they could choose to have a shifter lawyer working for the Council. But all the questioning will be handled by the Council.We were told Estelle didn’t have anyone representing her, so the Council provided for her.We left the territory full of hope, but by the time it was about to start, I was having a sinking feeling in my stomach.As if something would not go right. And I felt I was not alone.Amber had been quiet fo
