Chapter-03

But I couldn’t make my heart deny her last wish.

I took a deep breath to calm my mind and nodded.

I weak smile formed on her face and how her eyes lit up I know it meant the world to her.

“Let me change and I will join you in bed, we can sleep together,” I said and get up without giving her any time to respond.

I called a maid and ordered her to prepare Rose for bed and then return to my room.

I strip off my clothes and stand below the shower.

I close my eyes, holding the shower wall for support, and let the water slide down my naked body.

I didn’t know why, but I was not liking this thing.

Though I was angry with rose her sad and frail face was coming in front of my eyes, making me feel guilty.

Did I do wrong while pulling them into my mess?

If I wouldn’t take them as my Luna and wait for my mate, was it the right thing to do?

Though I have nothing to do with their death somehow the curse was responsible for taking their life, which I was unaware of.

Though I have nothing to do with the rose I am responsible for the death of the other two of my mate.

A knock made me come out of my daze.

“Alpha Luna is waiting for you.” A maid informed and I turn off the shower to come out, wrapping a bathrobe around my body.

I changed into my pajama and walked toward her room.

When I got back to her room, she was waiting for me, leaning her back over the headboard about how I left her.

Though she has changed into her sleeping wear and I noticed she has done some makeup too as her face was not pale like before.

Noticing me entering her room, she gave me a full-blown smile.

I know she wouldn’t have expected it. I would agree with her demand because I have never done that before.

But today I couldn’t deny her request.

I got on the bed and lie beside her.

She rolled over and put her head on my arm and we sleep in a cuddling position.

I was brushing her hair softly with my fingers, and she closed her eyes with contentment.

But I know she was awake, just enjoying the moment.

I thought she would fall asleep, but she was intending to make a conversation

“When I will be gone? Will you take another chosen mate?” She asked, closing her eyes.

I was not expecting her question, so I looked at her with a surprised expression

She was looking at me expectantly, but I didn’t have any answer to this question and I look away.

I have never wanted to take a chosen mate ever.

“I don’t know. I didn’t think about this. I have taken you because you are a sweet girl and I didn’t want you to live a life like other omega having alpha blood.” I expressed my reason to her for marrying her.

Though I wasn’t bound to take her in my care, I felt that appropriate at that time.

I wanted to provide her with safe heaven.

Her pack has been demolished after the war.

I have demolished and joined it with my pack and made a place for the pack members.

But if she wouldn’t have been my mate, she would become a normal pack member and lived a life like an omega.

“I know. You have always been my heaven. I don’t regret being your Luna.” She said and her word makes me surprised.

“I thought you would hate me,” I said honestly, and she smiles.

“That’s not possible. If you love someone, you can’t hate them. Your heart won’t allow it. And you are not a bad person. You have never treated me unfairly,” she said, and a sneer came out of my mouth instinctively.

“It was my heart that desired something that can’t become mine.” She said with a sad tone and I can hear the regret in her tone.

I never thought she would think like this about me.

Normally, if a relationship breaks, the person blames their partner.

But here she was defending me and taking the blame herself.

“But I regret I couldn’t be the person you desire.” She said in a sad tone and I look at her confused.

It was not her fault.

I have seen her trying.

She has made every effort that can be done to woe, someone.

But sometimes you can’t fight fate.

“But I hope this time you find your other part of the soul. Your mate.” She said and I look at her, widening my eyes.

I was taken aback by her confession.

I wanted to ask why she hope that.

Isn’t it hard for her to think about me with a person she could never become?

But She hid her face in my chest and closed her eyes tiredly.

I know she must be feeling tired with all the talking as her health was not in her favor.

So I let her rest and hold her in my arm though I couldn’t sleep.

Her breathing was falling into my chest and I noticed it was getting abnormal.

I felt she was having a hard time taking a breath and I run my hand through her back to make her feel comfortable.

But with time it became slow, and I felt her breathing stop.

I got up worriedly and checked her pulse, which was absent.

I wanted to call the doctor, but I felt her body go limp and it was getting cold slowly.

Her face was looking calm, and I felt happy thinking she has left the world in peace.

But the next day something abnormal happened.

When we were preparing her body for burial, I noticed a cut mark on her neck, and the mark on her wrist, which was getting faint, stood out like eyes sore.

I was with her all night after her death and I didn’t notice it then.

Then who made those marks on her body and what is their motive?

It didn’t take me long to understand when an uproar started inside the pack and rumor come flying my ear which disturbed me.

The rumor was I killed my mate.
