The Betrayed Warrior Luna's Second Chance Chapter 18 Chapter Eighteen
DEREK’S POVI paced in my quarters, my hands shaking with barely contained rage.This wasn't how today was supposed to go.When I had walked into that settlement meeting, I had expected Eliza to grovel at my feet for mercy, to show some kind of desperation.Instead, that bastard Alexander had swept in like an avenging angel and turned everything on its head.I was the one who left empty-handed and with shame hanging over my head.Three million dollars.The number echoed in my mind like a death knell. I sucked at my teeth, wondering how this had happened.I was an Alpha of the pack for God's sake.A celebrated general, personally praised by the king for my efforts in the war, and yet I found myself in debt to the woman I had cast aside.It wasn't fair.If Alexander hadn't shown up when he did, then I might have been able to convince the auditor.The memory of Alexander's arrival made my blood boil.The way he had strode into that room, emanating power and authority, had immediately shi

ELIZA’S POVI caught Lily's eye across the room as the settlement papers were signed. A subtle nod passed between us – it was time.My heart pounded as I stood, knowing what came next would change everything."I request all pack members to gather immediately," I announced, my voice carrying the authority I'd earned.I watched as Derek's face contorted in confusion, clearly not expecting this turn of events."You don't have the right to request such a thing. You are no longer the Luna of the pack and therefore the pack no longer answers to you.""I never addressed the pack when our marriage was annulled. It was my right and since I never did that, I request to do it now." I shot back, but Derek scoffed."You lost that right when you...""You mean when you had an affair and brought back another woman to the pack?" Alexander butted in. I was thankful for the backup but he needed to let me fight my own battles.Due to these words, Derek's lips went into a straight line, the poke at his ow

ELIZA’S POVMy heart constricted as I stood before what remains of my childhood home.The pack house, once proud and magnificent, now stood in haunting ruins.Crumbling walls told stories of neglect, while weeds thrust through cracks in the courtyard stones like nature's slow-moving revenge.The sight brought tears to my eyes, but I forced them back. I couldn’t show weakness, not now. I walk through the ruins until the pack members and I reach a suitable place in the middle of it all, my back turning to the home I left behind to address my new pack.The gathered wolves watched me with expectant eyes as I began to speak. My voice trembled at first, but grew stronger as I recounted the tale that had haunted my dreams for years."It happened on a night like any other," I told them, the memories fresh as yesterday's wounds. "My father was holding council with the pack elders. My brother was training the younger wolves. None of us saw the Western Plains attack coming."A young wolf, barely

ELIZA’S POVI wandered aimlessly through the pack grounds, trying to calm my racing heart after that encounter with Alexander.His scent still lingered in my nostrils, making it impossible to think clearly. I shook my head, trying to clear my mind and focus on what is actually important to me. Saving my pack."You're acting like a teenage pup with her first crush," my wolf teased, her tone light and playful. "We're a strong, independent Alpha female. We should be enjoying our freedom, not running away from an attractive male.""I'm not running," I muttered, though my hasty retreat said otherwise."Oh? So what do you call that graceful sprint just now?" She laughed. "Face it, his Alpha aura affects us. Affects you. There's nothing wrong with that.""It doesn't affect me. I just need to stay away from him for some time." I retorted, not liking what she was hinting at."We're single Eliza. We have no mate. Isn't it unfair that Derek has a new plaything and we are left to wander through t

ELIZA’S POVMy first curled around the head of my knife ready to be unsheathed as I ran to the middle of the battlefield.My heart, pounding like the war drum sounding some miles away.An arrow, almost immediately, flew over my head piercing into the throat of the man standing before me and I watched as he fell to ground knees first as blood gushed out from his throat.'Run Eliza. Run!' I turned my head to the direction of the voice but the primal and brutal snarls surrounding me prevented me from seeing who it was.'Eliza! By the goddess run!' It was Mom's voice.This time, I didn't need any confirmation to know it was her.But what was Mom doing at the battlefield?I quickly turned to the direction of her voice and saw her standing in the middle of fallen warriors, her dress soaked in blood; blood so thick I could taste the coppery thang in my throat.'Mom, run!' I yelled but my shouts barely escaped my throat. Two men from her left and right were approaching her fast and she was un

ELIZA’S POVI took a deep breath, willing myself back to saneness. I had a reason for coming back to Alexander and his sexy, gorgeous, manly body was not going to make me loose my plot.“You know, you didn't actually tell me why you are out here by this time.”He shrugged, doing his last button. “I didn't think you wanted to hear it. You skipped out before I could assimilate the response you gave to me.”He had a small smirk on his face as he looked at me from the corner of his eyes. I chuckled, Alexander was a lot of things but being bold topped the list.“The river calms me.” Alexander said in response to my question. “Large body of water in general. Swimming in it, listening to their little trickle as they flow, observing the ripples and the little ‘thump’ when you throw a rock in it.”I looked up at him. "That's-" Who knew the charismatic prince had an element of surprise

ELIZA’S POV“This place is a shadow of its former self.” I looked over my shoulder with raised brows and at Alexander who was wiping imaginary cobwebs from his face.“You’ve been here before?” We were in my house looking for a space to reenact the events of the war.“I am the Prince of the Lycan Kingdom,” he replied with a smug smile and I shook my head.I stood in the middle of the room with my hands on my waist as I took in the room, indeed, it was a shadow of its former self.Before the war, in the middle of the room - the war room - stood a tall, round table made from the finest oak tree. It had been passed down for generations, and it was where my father and his fathers before him strategized and discussed the best way to help the pack.Now, in the middle of the room stood me, and the table, scattered in parts all over the room.I turned in a slow circle taking in the room where I h

ELIZA’S POVMy fists balled by my sides as we walked up to the dining table.What was I thinking? What were we thinking?Alexander may have proposed to me a few days back but that wasn't enough reason to get... unprofessional with him.My thoughts were spiraling and with the ensuing silence between us, I was certain the thudding of my heart could be heard a million miles away.I peeked over my shoulder and our eyes met. He opened his mouth to speak but as if deciding against it, he chewed on his teeth and looked straight ahead.'Me too, Alexander. Me too.’ I muttered to myself not knowing how to express or assemble the thoughts in my head.It wasn't often that Alexander was at a loss for words but last night's events had clearly thrown him off balance.As we neared the dining room, the familiar chatter in the room enveloped me, throwing me back to the memories I have missed; me, my parents, my brother, my father's beta, my mom's right hand woman and a few other warriors from our pack.

ALEXANDER’S POVThe moment I opened my eyes that morning, the scent of her still lingered on my skin.Eliza.Her warmth, the softness of her body pressed against mine, and the way her breath had hitched when I touched her—it was all burned into my mind like an imprint I would never forget.It had been days since I last saw her yet it felt like it was just yesterday.I missed her.Goddess, I missed her more than I could put into words.I had waited years for her, loving her from afar, forcing myself to suppress what I felt.She had always been meant for me.Even my wolf had known it from the start, but fate had other plans.We were separated. Now, with her back in my life, with her finally in my arms, I couldn’t bear the thought of letting her go again.My wolf stirred restlessly, pacing in my mind. He kept urging me to claim her, to solidify the bond between us.“Patience,&rdq

ELIZA’S POVAfter my time with Alexander, I wasted no time in going back to my pack.My mind was set.I stepped into the study, where my trusted Beta, Lily, and Gamma, Frederick, were already waiting for me.Their expressions were unreadable, but I could sense their concern.“How are the reconstruction efforts progressing?” I asked, settling into my chair.Lily handed me a detailed report. “We’re making headway. The outer defenses have been reinforced, and the warriors are undergoing intensive training. The people are rallying, Eliza. They believe in you.”I nodded as I looked at the reports “Good. And the supply lines?”Frederick answered this time “Restored. We have enough resources to last the winter. But, Eliza—”I looked up sharply at his hesitation. “But what?”Frederick exchanged a glance with Lily before speaking. “Leaving

ELIZA’S POVThe moment Alexander’s lips met mine, the world around me blurred into nothing.It was like a fire ignited in my veins, and I felt my wolf stir with a hunger I had never known before.It wasn’t just the physical connection—it was something deeper.The feeling made my entire body tremble with need. I had never felt like this with anyone before.His hands slid around my waist, pulling me against his hard sculpted body. I gasped against his lips, and he took full advantage.He used the opportunity to deepen the kiss with an intensity that made my knees weak.The taste of him sent a shudder through me, and I surrendered completely.Alexander took control effortlessly, as if he had always known exactly how to touch me, how to unravel me.My body melted into his and my arms wrapped around his neck as my fingers tangled in his hair.He groaned low in his throat. My wolf responded eager

ELIZA’S POVAlyosha’s message had been short but enough to send a chill down my spine.Alexander and I returned to his private study in silence. As soon as we stepped inside, he shut the door behind us, locking out the noise of the palace.“We both know your father won’t change his mind,” I said, forcing myself to speak first.The words were painful but they were the truth. I saw it in Alexander’s eyes—he looked frustrated.He sighed and ran his hand through his hair.“I know.” He said “I can’t believe he thinks you’re a spy. How can he say that?”I paced the room. My mind raced with different possibilities.“There’s no time to dwell on that. If he’s not going to listen to us then we need another way. Because if those reinforcements from the Western Plains arrive before we’re ready, there won’t be a battle. There will be

ELIZA’S POVThe moment the private jet landed in the capital, my heart began to race.My wolf stirred inside me at the familiar, intoxicating scent that filled the air.Even before I saw him, I knew he was here. Alexander.As I stepped off the aircraft, my eyes landed on him.At the sight of him alone, my breath hitched.He stood tall. His presence commanded attention as usual.He was dressed in a white button up shirt and black pants. His ocean blue eyes met mine, and for a moment, the entire world faded into the background.My feet moved before I could think. I was drawn to him in a way I couldn’t explain.He opened his arms, and I practically melted into them, inhaling his scent. I had never been this happy to see anyone before.“I missed you,” he murmured against my hair. His lips pressed a soft kiss to my temple.I tightened my arms around him, savoring the warmth of his body. “Me too,” I whispered.Alexander didn’t seem like the type for public displays of affection, yet he held

ALEXANDER’S POVThe moment I returned to the capital, I buried myself in royal duties.It was easier that way—easier to pretend I wasn't drowning in thoughts of her.Eliza.Her name was always in my mind. I missed her terribly. My wolf kept clawing at me, calling out for his mate.He demanded that I go back, that I claim her, that I hold her in my arms again.But I couldn't.Not yet. Duty came first, as it always had, as it always would.The grand hall was filled with nobles, generals, and high-ranking officials discussing preparations for the upcoming ceremony.The packs that had distinguished themselves in the border wars were to be honored, and as the heir to the throne, it was my responsibility to ensure every detail was executed flawlessly. But my mind drifted, betraying me.I couldn’t help but think about her.She was always in my mind.I thought of her beautiful eyes, the way she had looked at me, the way she felt in my arms, her lovely scent.Goddess, I was running mad.I coul

ELIZA’S POVI sat at my desk, recalling the messenger’s words. The news was unsettling—dangerous even—and my instincts were already on high alert.“Where is this information from?” I asked him.“It’s from Alyosha, my lady. She sent it directly from the border.”Alyosha. The name hit me.I dismissed the messenger with a wave.Alyosha was a lone she-wolf I had met during my training days.Alyosha was wild, untamed, a free spirit who had no interest in the constraints of pack life.She had always vowed to explore the continent on her own terms, and it was that very defiance that allowed her to gather critical intelligence.As much as I admired her independence, I had always known that trusting her would not be totally good.I couldn’t wait any longer. I grabbed my phone, dialed her number and pressed it to my ear.“Come on, Alyosha,” I muttered to myself, “pick up.”When she finally answered, I sighed in relief.“Eliza,” she said “To what do I owe the pleasure?”“Alyosha,” I said “I rece

ELIZA’S POVThe moment I stepped into the Derek and Maya’s banquet hall, all eyes turned to me.I could hear the gasps in the crowd and their whispers too. I could feel their stares, their curiosity, their judgment, but most of all, their admiration.I was dressed in a long white dress that hugged my curves in all the right places, I walked with slow steps. That way, every eye could see me.I wanted them to see me.The slit on the side of my dress revealed just enough of my leg to tease but not enough to cause a scandal.I paired my outfit with gold heels and just the right amount of make up to make heads turn.White was meant for the bride, but today, I had chosen it for myself. It was my silent statement—I was not a woman scorned. I was not someone that would be pushed aside.The wedding was a disaster.Instead of the elegance expected of an Alpha’s wedding, the grand hall was filled with the chaos of rowdy warrior wolves.They drank expensive liquor in the most irritating manner.

ELIZA’S POVThe first rays of morning light filtered through the curtains as I woke up. My body ached in the most delicious way.Every touch, every whispered promise, every kiss, still lingered on my skin.I turned over, instinctively reaching for him, only to find the sheets cold and empty.My heart sank for a moment before I noticed a neatly folded note resting on his pillow.I picked up the note, unfolding it. It was a note from Alexander.My Eliza,You looked so beautiful this morning and it hurt me to leave you but duty calls me to the capital. Know that every moment with you has been lovely, a temptation I cannot resist. I am falling for you, deeper than I ever thought possible. Until I return, think of me, as I will think of you. I love you so much.Yours, Alexander.A slow smile spread across my lips as I traced the ink with my fingers. He loved me.The realization sent made me grin even wider.I had always known there was something different about Alexander, something that ma
