Georgina Sinclair's POV:

The pressure in my chest is not much lessened by the morning light.

I walk quietly through the corridors. My patched cheek is less swollen today. But I can still feel the phantom sting where Ryan struck me. It was not just on my skin but also in places that no one can see.

Today is the day where I'm going to speak with the old council. I will tell them my decision to divorce Ryan and ask a separation from the River Moon Pack.

I square my shoulders and make my heart steady despite the tightness in my throat. I am expecting a resistance from the council but I am ready for it.

Or at least I try to convince myself that I am.

The moment I step outside the mansion, I can feel it.

The shift.

The change.

A lot of eyes are following me everywhere.

Some of them linger for a moment too long. The others flash away the second I meet their gaze. But most of them hold the same bitter emotion wrapped tightly beneath their glances.

Disdain.

Mistrust.

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:It's already midnight when Marius and I eventually make it back to his house. My heart is still raw and bruised from my broken bond. It's aches quietly and it's persistently throbbing deep in my chest.But I push it aside.I've spent the last several hours helping my people settle back into their old homes. Homes they thought they would never return to. The village was still in shambles in some places. I helped them until I feel my hands and legs trembled. I smiled, directed and comforted them. I stood when I wanted to collapse and I spoke when all I wanted was silence. I promised them I would return tomorrow to help fix what was left. I have to. My decision has already cost them a lot.We open the door and I half expect everyone to be asleep leaving the house dark. But I'm wrong.Standing in the hallway in her slippers and a robe is Lydia.She looks up the moment she hears us. Her eyes landing on me first. Then her expression softens instantly."Oh, my chi

  • The Luna's Redemption   Console

It's like walking barefoot on a frozen lake and feeling cracks but not stopping.I stagger just for a second.However, I straighten my back like iron, lift my chin, and pull my shoulders back. I won't allow them to witness my breakdown."Lady Georgina!"Several voices call out to me. Familiar ones. Old friends, quiet allies and those who had dared to show kindness through the isolation. They gather near and hovering like a small flock. They all have uncertaint and concern in their eyes."Are you alright?" one of them asked. "You and Alpha Ryan...""I'm okay." I said with a smile.Their eyes flicker to my hand. Then to my face as if they are trying to measure how much of me is left."I really don’t feel anything." I added while touching my chest lightly. "Maybe Lira and I already accepted it a long time ago. Maybe the pain was never going to be as sharp as they wanted it to

  • The Luna's Redemption   Rejected and Free

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:A sharp breath escapes me. For a moment, the room feels unreal. It feels like I am watching from a distance. But Marius's warm presence behind me brings me back. He says nothing but I can feel the approval in his silence. His strength is anchoring me.Alpha Robert's jaw tightens. His teeth are clenched."Elder Gavin, are you certain about this?!""I am." the elder calmly replied without hesitation. "She has every right to free herself."Ryan slams a hand against the table. But the sound of it barely makes me flinch. "So that's it? Just like that? You all expect me to give up and just sign away my Luna like she's a possession to return?"My voice is clear when I finally speak. "No, Ryan. You gave me up the moment you chose your mistress. I am just here to make it official."He turns toward me. And for a moment, I csn see the man I once knew. He looks lost, confused and bitter. But that's no longer my burden to carry.Marius steps forward slightly just in case

  • The Luna's Redemption   Ripples

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:The car slows down when we approach the gates of our estate. It still feels surreal returning like this. Nothing has changed from the stone walls, the familiar iron archway and the long stretch of driveway cutting through fields kissed by early morning dew. And yet, everything feels different now.Marius sits beside me. He's silent with one hand resting on his thigh. His other hand is lightly brushing against mine from time to time. As we pull up to the front steps, I see Ver already waiting outside. She is standing tall in her usual clothes with her arms behind her back. The wind is teasing some loosely strands of her braided hair. The moment she spots me through the window, Ver nods once and moves forward when I open the door."Everything is now ready, Luna." Ver announced as soon as I step out. "The council is assembled in the main hall. Ryan and Danica have arrived as well."The mention of them causes my heart to clench. But I keep my chin up."Thank you.

    Georgina Sinclair's POV:I sit on the edge of the vanity and staring at my reflection. I still feel half-lost in yesterday's touch and last night's silence.Then my fingers run lightly over my lips.I let out a sigh before I start brushing my hair. I decided to wear a loose cardigan over my shoulders, a muted green blouse with buttoned cuffs and a pair of dark slacks. It's nothing that screams attention.Even my makeup is minimal. A soft tint to my cheeks and a subtle gloss to my lips. It's enough to look presentable but not enough to impress.Because today is not about appearances.Today is the day I return to my estate.To our estate.The one I shared with Ryan.I inhale deeply while steadying myself as I slide a pair of earrings into place. My hands tremble slightly but I press them flat against the table. "You can do this, Georgina."But then, he suddenly appears back into my mind.Marius.His touch. His breath. The low timbre of his voice whispering threats of kisses against my
