Chapter 9

Auteur: Cece West
Ailara's POV

But fate had other plans.

That day, after brewing a remedy for the Alpha of a small pack, I stepped outside and found Lucian standing there.

He looked gaunt and haggard, his once-straight posture slumped as though something had weighed him down. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked nothing like the proud, confident Alpha Lucian I had once known.

Lucian stood a short distance away, hesitating. He didn't dare come any closer to me.

I didn't bother speaking to him, either. W

  • I Lost Our Pup, He Lost His Luna   Chapter 9

    Ailara's POVBut fate had other plans. That day, after brewing a remedy for the Alpha of a small pack, I stepped outside and found Lucian standing there. He looked gaunt and haggard, his once-straight posture slumped as though something had weighed him down. His eyes were bloodshot, and he looked nothing like the proud, confident Alpha Lucian I had once known. Lucian stood a short distance away, hesitating. He didn't dare come any closer to me. I didn't bother speaking to him, either. Without so much as a glance, I turned and walked away. Lucian hurried after me and caught up. Still, he didn't dare touch me. He hesitated for a while before finally speaking, his voice trembling. "Ailara… It's been three years. I finally found you."For a moment, I found myself lost in thought. Had it really been that long?"How's Freya?" I asked. By now, she had probably gotten what she'd always wanted and become Luna.Pain flashed in Lucian's eyes as he pleaded, "Ailara, please, don't

  • I Lost Our Pup, He Lost His Luna   Chapter 8

    Ailara's POVOnce I settled down in Morington, life fell into a quiet rhythm. Every day, I did little more than visit Hazel Thornfield, the healer, and work on restoring my wolf. When my final treatment was over, Hazel stopped me. "Ailara, your wolf is healthy now, but you're still wasting away inside. Whatever happened in the past, you still need to figure out where you want to go from here."It was something I had never even considered. Lucian and I had grown up together, and from an early age, I had known I'd one day become his Luna. All I had to do was help the Alpha lead the pack. I had never stopped to ask myself what I wanted.After I left the pack, I felt lost, like a traveler wandering through fog with no idea which way to turn. Hazel sighed when she saw me like that. Then, she said, "If you'd like, you can learn from me. Healers are needed throughout the neutral territories. Once you're trained, you could become a healer yourself."Until then, becoming a healer had

  • I Lost Our Pup, He Lost His Luna   Chapter 7

    Third-Person POVAll at once, Lucian snapped. He stormed into the Luna's quarters and dragged Freya out. Moments ago, she had been dreaming of becoming the true Luna. Freya was visibly shaken, but she still kept up her helpless act. "What happened, Alpha Lucian? Is Ailara back? Is she mad at me? I can apologize to her. Please, calm down.""Shut up!" Lucian roared. He threw her to the floor, and his eyes blazed with fury. "An apology isn't enough. You deserve to die for what you've done! "You got Ethan killed, and you incited a riot that killed my pup! You're a monster! You deserve to be cursed by the Moon Goddess!"Lucian threw the evidence in Freya's face. Freya opened her mouth to defend herself, but the moment she saw what was on the papers, she froze. She knew everything she had done had come to light. If that was the case, there was no point keeping up the act anymore. Freya got to her feet before dusting herself off. She sneered and said, "I admit I started the riot.

  • I Lost Our Pup, He Lost His Luna   Chapter 6

    Third-Person POVLucian stumbled back to the house and rushed into the Luna's quarters, only to be met by a scent that wasn't Ailara's. That was when he remembered he'd assigned the room to Freya. His face went deathly pale as he staggered toward the guest room. He pushed the door open and found that the room was empty. Every trace of Ailara was gone. Then, Lucian remembered something else. He rushed to the storage room, searching for the framed photograph Ailara had told him about. But the moment he saw what was inside, he froze in the doorway, unable to take another step. In the dim storage room, the huge framed photograph stood in the corner. However, Ailara's half had been cut away, leaving only Lucian in his formal attire. Memories came rushing back. Ailara and Lucian had taken the photograph during their marking ceremony. That day, they'd sworn never to betray each other. If either of them ever betrayed the other, they would cut the photograph in two and never see

  • I Lost Our Pup, He Lost His Luna   Chapter 5

    Third-Person POVMeanwhile, at the Lunar Palace, Lucian felt the mate bond snap. He staggered and grabbed the back of a chair. Pain surged through him, so intense it felt as though his body were being torn apart. "Ailara…"Her name escaped his lips before he could stop himself. Sensing something was wrong, Freya hurried over to steady him. "Alpha Lucian, what's wrong? Are you not feeling well?" she asked, feigning concern. Lucian stared at the doorway, yet Ailara was no longer there. He had never felt this anxious before. "My mate bond with Ailara… It's been severed."A hint of delight flashed in Freya's eyes, but she quickly bit her lip. Tears welled up in her eyes as she grabbed Lucian's sleeve. "It's all my fault. If I hadn't accidentally gotten Ailara's dress dirty, she wouldn't have lost it. But she's being unreasonable. How could she sever her mate bond with you over something so trivial?"Lucian clenched his fists. When he spoke, his voice came out strained. The ca

  • I Lost Our Pup, He Lost His Luna   Chapter 4

    Ailara's POVSeveral days later, to celebrate the pack not losing anyone during the berserk outbreak on the night of the full moon, the pack threw a grand feast.As the Alpha and Luna of the pack, Lucian and I had to attend together. However, once I had changed into my gown, I suddenly received a message from him."Why is it that I can't seem to sense you over the mate bond and can only contact you using my phone?"Anyway, after what happened with the Gamma warriors the other day, Freya is utterly terrified to face them alone. I have to accompany her, so you can just head inside yourself."There were no more messages after that. It seemed like Lucian didn't even care why he couldn't seem to feel our mate bond.I stared at my reflection in the mirror, noting the unhealthy pallor to my skin, and found this all so laughable.During that terrible night, my pup was the only one who died. Yet, no one seemed to care about that, nor did they wonder just what sort of suffering I was curr
