Second Chance for the Barren Luna CHAPTER FORTY ONE
Viki’s POVThe tray clattered loudly as Henry dropped it on the small table near the wall. The smell of roasted meat and steamed greens filled the room, but I barely noticed. My appetite was gone the moment I saw the judgment in his eyes.“Please,” I said softly, forcing a tremble into my voice. “Just let me talk to Jason. Just once. I need to explain.”Henry didn’t move. He stood by the door, arms crossed. “Explain?” His voice was low and bitter. “Explain how you lied to your Alpha? Faked a pregnancy? Framed his true mate? No. More like you’ll make up more lies to manipulate your way out of this situation. I don’t think so.”I bit the inside of my cheek, letting tears spill freely. “I didn’t mean to hurt anyone. I only…”“Save it.” He cut me off, disgust flashing across his face. “You drove Talia, our real Luna, away with your lies. You humiliated our pack with your antics. And now you want sympathy? You’re disgusting. You never deserved to be Luna. I don’t even know what Alpha Jason

Talia’s POV“Oh Goddess, I know that look. What juicy gossip do you have now?” I laughed.Della laid the folder on Solon’s desk and flipped it open without waiting for permission. Inside was a printed screenshot of a blurry image. Jason and Viki were mid-argument near the Shadowclaw border. Jason looked tense while Viki appeared frantic."Someone posted this an hour ago," Della said, tapping the photo. "And it's already been shared across several pack gossip groups. People are saying Viki was banished from Shadowclaw.”I leaned over the image. “What? They had a fight?”Solon glanced over, arms crossed. “Or she got herself kicked out,” he said flatly. “Seems like Jason found out something he didn’t like about his ‘perfect little Luna’.”I looked at another image. Viki’s mouth was open in mid-yell, one arm outstretched toward Jason. She didn’t look like a smug bitch giving orders and throwing insults. She looked like a desperate woman being thrown away.‘That’s what she gets. Now she’ll

Talia’s POVI stood near the open window, the wind brushing my cheek as I waited for Solon to finish his phone call. As soon as he said his goodbyes, Solon focused his attention back on me. “I heard the southern border is back safe again,” he said.“Indeed, it is. The rogue attack from the southern border has been handled. No injuries on our side, and the scouts confirmed it wasn’t a pack incursion,” I reported to Solon.Solon, seated behind his desk, nodded with approval. “Good work. You’ve been handling the border well, even with everything going on.”Since returning to Silverfang, Solon had given me oversight of the southern patrols, an area that he once solely managed. Now that I was supposed to rule alongside him, allowing me to manage the southern patrols was a show of trust that I appreciated.“I found out more information about the rogue Alpha Nolan is looking for,” I continued. Solon looked up in surprise. “Talia, I told you to stay away from him.”“Don’t worry. I am. That i

Jason’s POVI had no patience for Viki today. Her constant pestering about the Luna Ceremony was starting to get on my nerves. I’d told her the ceremony would happen after everything was secured with the alliance.Unfortunately, that didn’t stop her from sending a dozen messages demanding my input on pointless things like fittings, guest lists, and flower preferences. Talia never asked me about these things. She just knew what to do already.I stayed in my office, lying to her about being in deep in strategy meetings. I mostly just wanted to have a moment to myself without being talked to death about the Luna Ceremony. At least she respected the fact that I was in meetings and left me alone.While leaning back enjoying my third glass of whisky, the door burst open causing me to spill the whisky all over the desk and my shirt. Henry stepped in and quickly locked the door behind me.“What now?” I growled cleaning up the mess I made. When I looked up because Henry didn’t respond, I noted

Viki’s POVThe pounding in my head returned as soon as I stepped out of the medical wing. My vision blurred for a second, and I had to steady myself against the wall. The faint floral scent of the Redbone Flower still lingered in my nose and the sickening sweetness on my tongue made me gag.I clutched the packet of painkillers in my hand, the doctor’s warning still echoing in my ears. He had dared to raise his voice at me today. I should’ve had him sent to the dungeon.“Miss Viki, you’re being reckless! The poison is building in your blood. If you keep taking the extract, you’re not going to survive the ceremony!” the pack doctor had scolded.“I don’t care,” I had hissed, tossing the money onto his desk. “You’ll keep giving me the doses until I tell you otherwise. Speak a word of this, and I’ll slit your throat myself.”Coward that he was, he bowed his head and scribbled another prescription. Men in Shadowclaw were all the same. They were spineless when it came down to it.My stomach

Jason’s POV“You pathetic weakling!”My father’s glare burned into me as he stood in the middle of the war room. The vein in his forehead pulsed. He gripped the edge of the table, his claws digging in.“What did I tell you?” my father growled.“I talked with her. She…”“Enough of your excuses!” my father snapped, interrupting me. “You let a girl, an omega, humiliate you in front of the entire damn kingdom. You let her reject your bond and your pack. And you still didn’t bring her back?!”I gritted my teeth. “She’s not important anymore,” I said. “I’ve secured something better.”His brow arched. “Better?”“I’ve secured an alliance with the Blood Moon Pack. Alpha Nolan has agreed to work with us.”That got his attention. The fury in his eyes dulled slightly by interest. He released his grip on the table.“Nolan…” he echoed, stepping back and stroking his chin. “If you’re telling the truth, this changes everything.”“I wouldn’t lie to you, father.”He gave a slow nod. “You may have some
