RYAN'S POV,

“Do you? Do you believe she's lying? Do you believe she's the one who did it?”

The question hit me harder than I wanted to admit. I looked away immediately and focused on the empty spot on my desk where the file had been previously. The thought of Elena’s hands looking for the specific file from the pile, and her soft voice lying to me, felt wrong. Way too wrong.

“No,” I said at last, and even though my voice was low, there was a certainty about the way I said the whole thing. “I don't think Elena can ever do such a thing to anyone. She's not the kind of person who plays with the lives of other people.”

Corbin nodded once, and a smile blossomed on his face. “You're right about this, because she didn’t steal anything from you. I don't think she's capable of playing others like that.”

My eyes narrowed, hearing the confidence he had in her. It wasn't that they had known each other from before. She was a stranger to most in the pack, including Corbin. “You sound very sure abou

  • The Alpha's Unworthy Luna    CHAPTER 116: ALONE

    RYAN'S POV, The dinner that evening was quieter than usual, though the room was full of people. Politicians, council members, and our foreign Lycan guests were scattered around the room. The tables were covered in silver and china. Every word I spoke, every handshake, every polite nod — it all felt mechanical. Because my attention wasn’t really on the guests.It was on Julian.He was sitting two tables away, wearing that smug expression that could make any man want to break a glass just to have an excuse to leave. He looked perfectly comfortable—a little too comfortable—laughing with the council members who used to whisper against him only a month ago. His ability to charm never failed, even when the lies beneath it were rotting.Still, I had to be civil for the sake of my pack. There were too many eyes on me, too many people were around us, too much was at stake. But when he approached me, glass in hand and a dark grin firmly on his lips, the fragile calm I’d built all evening began

    ANDREW'S POV, “Good night, Prince Andrew.”Her voice lingered long after she turned away and went inside her room. I gave her a short nod when she looked at me for the last time, pretending it meant nothing, and followed Georgina back down the corridor. Ryan was still standing at the far end of the hallway, talking to one of his pack members, but his eyes followed us until we disappeared around the corner. The Alpha President was trying to be polite, but the stiffness in his shoulders said everything he couldn't with words. He didn’t like me around Elena for some reason, and if I wasn't aware about the taste of men in power, I would have assumed he fancied her. One thing I was certain of, judging by the reactions of the people around, no one wanted me near Elena and that included Georgina too.We walked back to my room in silence and once the door to my suite closed behind us, she spun to gave me a stern look. Her face was covered with annoyance and I knew she was going to scream at

  • The Alpha's Unworthy Luna    CHAPTER 114: SHARED MEMORIES

    ANDREW'S POV,The snow around us was too white.Wind howled across the cold mountain, carrying the thin, high-pitched laughter of two girls who were running around, unaware of the dark shadows looming over their heads. They were racing—tiny figures in thick coats. Their boots were sinking deep into snowdrifts that swallowed their every step, but it wasn't enough to stop them from competing against each other.I knew that place, and what was going to happen next. I’d been there before, multiple times over the years.The smaller girl stumbled, then giggled as the older one pulled her up from the snow. Their cheeks were flushed pink from the cold, and their gloved hands were locked together as both of them forgot about the competition. Even though it was a memory, I almost felt the bite of the air and the sting of snowflakes against my skin. Then there was the sound of their laughter, echoing endlessly across the white.They were happy together until a scream shattered the calm.It came

  • The Alpha's Unworthy Luna    CHAPTER 113: ANOTHER VISION

    ELENA'S POV,“It's different. Like when Daddy looks at you.”I didn’t have an appropriate answer for her, but at the same time I knew I couldn't let her think that something was going on between Prince Andrew and me. Ollie was very mature for someone her age, so I knew I couldn't just sweep it under the rug, hoping she would be distracted by something new soon. She was never that girl, so I had to come up with something very fast.“Do you remember the story I told you about my parents?” At the end, I chose to be truthful because I didn't feel comfortable lying to her. “I know it has been months, but it's related to that.”I wanted to share the illogical thoughts I had with someone, but I feared others might judge me for them. I had no idea what I wanted to prove, but the thought took shape in my head a while ago and wasn't going away. I needed to tell someone that, for my own sanity, and I knew Ollie was never going to judge me like others might.“Yeah, you don't know who your parents

  • The Alpha's Unworthy Luna    CHAPTER 112: SOMETHING ABOUT PAST

    ELENA'S POV,The next few days in the palace felt different from usual, and Ryan wasn't telling me what was wrong.Things all around the palace were quieter, but not the peaceful kind, more like the quiet before disaster kind. I was uncomfortable every time I stepped out of my room; it felt like someone was watching me. I knew it wasn't Julian because it felt different somehow, and my wolf could almost always feel Julian's presence whenever he was around. So, I knew for sure it wasn't him.Around the palace, things on the surface seemed to be getting back to normal. No one fussed over Prince Andrew's allergies like Ryan feared. Instead, people smiled, nodded, and went about their routines as if nothing had happened. There were several meetings with different representatives, and from what Ryan told me, things were going smoothly. Yet something in the air had shifted since that night. The Lycan delegation stayed busy with meetings and events they had to attend around the country, but

  • The Alpha's Unworthy Luna    CHAPTER 111: TWO YOUNG GIRLS

    ANDREW'S POV,The morning light in the wolf country felt softer than in the mountains of my home. It spread over the palace gardens like melted gold, touching every leaf, every petal, and even the dew on the potted roses on my balcony. I hate roses, especially white ones, but Georgina told me to deal with it because they put it in my balcony as a symbol of peace between the two nations. Apparently, my father gave white roses to all the wolves who were present in the signing of the peace treaty, and ever since then, it became the symbol of peace. I found the white roses dead and boring, and not something that would remind me of peace. After hearing the story from Georgina, I couldn't wait to ask my father about the significance behind choosing that flower. From my room, I could see almost the entire southern courtyard. It was strange that President Ryan chose to place me in a room facing the back entrance of the Palace. It was probably a way to show trust in me and the Lycans because
