Chapter 6

Author: Mountain River
Sebastian couldn't believe his ears. I was dead.

He hadn't even begun to process the sudden, crushing news when the doors to the delivery room burst open again.

Another healer rushed out. His face was pale, and his voice trembled as he said, "Alpha Sebastian… Luna Olivia's pup didn't make it either. It was stillborn."

The two devastating pieces of news hit him like a punch to the gut, and he staggered backward.

"That's impossible!"

His eyes burned red, like a beast provoked. He barreled past everyone and charged into the delivery room.

Right away, the metallic tang of blood enveloped Sebastian, making it hard to breathe.

I lay lifeless on the bed. My face was ghostly pale, with dark shadows under my closed eyes. Beside me, a small tray held a tiny body wrapped in white cloth. It was the pup he had never even seen.

"Olivia!" he screamed as he rushed forward.

His hands trembled as he reached for my face, only to freeze in midair.

Then, Sebastian spun around, his Alpha pr

  • I Was His Luna, Until He Chose Her Pup Over Ours   Chapter 12

    Another five years had passed. By now, the Temple of the Moon's reputation among various packs had reached an unprecedented height. Over the years, I had delivered countless oracles from the Moon Goddess, guiding the packs away from disasters that could have wiped them out. My name had become a symbol of wisdom and power. Noah, on the other hand, had grown from a pup who needed my protection into a calm, intelligent pre-teen. He had inherited my formidable soul energy. He could hear the voices of all living things and even see fleeting glimpses of the future during meditation. The Temple elders said that in a few years, Noah might become the youngest Chief Oracle in history. Occasionally, news of the Crescent Moon Pack reached me. I heard that after losing his powers, Sebastian had also been stripped of his Alpha status. The pack had quickly elected a new Alpha.At first, a few loyal pack members tried to support Sebastian. But as they watched him drift through his days in a

    Under the guidance of the elders from the Temple of the Moon, the purification ritual took place by the Moonlit Spring at the heart of the pack's land. Sebastian kept his word. When the dagger pierced his chest, he didn't so much as flinch. Crimson blood dripped into the clear spring, spreading quickly.I watched with cold detachment as his power was stripped away, draining color from his face. His tall frame wavered. It was as if even standing had become too great a burden. The pack members surrounding us gasped. The elders who had opposed Sebastian's decision looked on with mixed emotions, while the mothers whose pups had been healed wept with gratitude. When Sebastian collapsed from the pain, something inside me faltered, but calm quickly settled back in. He had suffered to atone for his sins. Once the plague had been eradicated, the pack erupted in cheers, welcoming a fresh start.…That night, I went alone to the hillside and stood before the tombstone that read, "I

    Sebastian led the way, guiding me to a quiet room that had long been prepared. As soon as the door closed, shutting us off from the world outside, he could no longer maintain his Alpha's authority.At such close range, my scent was unmistakable. He almost knew for certain that beneath the veil was the woman he had longed for over the past five years. "Olivia, is that you?" Sebastian asked, his voice trembling. He stepped forward to grab me but froze abruptly. Pain and regret brimmed in his eyes as he said, "It really is you! You're alive! I've missed you so much!"His words tumbled out as he began to apologize, trying to explain everything that had happened five years ago. "I'm sorry, Olivia. I was wrong. Back then, all I wanted was to save Roxanne. I never meant to hurt you. I assumed you'd understand because you were so kind. I never imagined things would turn out this way. "Not a single day has passed in these five years without regret. When you left, our mate bond was s

    And so, I agreed to the Crescent Moon Pack's request. Donovan looked at me with concern. "Chief Oracle, are you certain you want to go?""I'll go. But they must agree to two conditions," I replied. My voice betrayed no hesitation. In the face of the innocent pups' lives, my personal grudges were irrelevant. Five years had passed, and I was no longer Olivia, the woman who had lived only for love and hatred. I went on, "First, I will only communicate with the Moon Goddess and deliver her guidance. How the pack acts on it is their decision. "Second, no one may see my face."…Three days later, the private plane of the Temple landed on the Crescent Moon Pack's airstrip. The door opened, and I stepped down slowly, holding Noah's hand. I wore the white robes of the Chief Oracle, while my face was hidden behind a veil. The pack's elders were already waiting. When they saw me, their gazes were filled with reverence and devotion. Flanked by the elders, I stepped into the co

    Five years later, in the Temple of the Moon, I guided Noah through his daily soul energy training in the enchanted forest behind the hill. "Mommy, I heard the willow tree singing. It said it loved today's sunlight. And among the highest branches, a little bluebird is sleeping," Noah said with his eyes closed, a trace of pride in his voice.I opened my eyes, smiling as I stroked his head. "Your senses are sharp. Remember this feeling. This is how you speak to all living things, and how you hear the Moon Goddess's whispers."Five years had been enough to change me completely. I was no longer the Luna who had humbled herself for love. Under the protection of the Temple's magical wards, the blood magic curse that had plagued me was cleansed. My soul energy had not only fully recovered but grown stronger than ever. Over the years, I had occasionally taken requests from other packs. I consulted the Moon Goddess to provide guidance, helping them avoid disasters and cure plagues. Eve

  • I Was His Luna, Until He Chose Her Pup Over Ours   Chapter 7

    As I slowly opened my heavy eyelids, it felt as if I were surfacing from the depths of the ocean.The last thing I remembered was the harsh, white light of the delivery room and the pain that tore me apart. Now, I found myself in a strange, spotless room. The air carried a faint herbal scent, and soft moonlight fell over me. It was calm and serene. I tried to move. However, my body was so weak that even lifting an arm felt like a struggle. Instinctively, I touched my stomach. It was flat once more. The heavy weight I had carried for nearly ten months was gone. My pup was no longer inside me. "You're awake."A gentle voice reached me, and I realized it was Donovan, the elder of the Temple of the Moon. At that moment, he was approaching my bedside with a steaming bowl of herbs. "My pup…" I rasped, struggling to speak. Donovan helped me sit up and placed the bowl in my hands. "Don't worry. He's safe. Drink this. It'll help you recover."The warm liquid slid down my throat
