Chapter 2

Author: alone
Forcing a smile, I told Past Cedwin in a soothing voice, "Don't cry. It doesn't hurt."

Past Cedwin was shaking his head repeatedly, flinging his tears all over. "Just hold on! I'll definitely save you!"

But I didn't even have the strength to respond now.

Back in the present, Cedwin escorted Laura to the ambulance.

Turning to look at the collapsing building, his tone was cold as he spoke to Belon, his Beta.

"Tell the Luna she's not going to the Full Moon Festival—I'm having Laura take her seat, for planning this nonsense to hurt Laura. And she only comes home when she understands her mistake."

Belon was staring at the wall over my head that was threatening to crack and fall, pursing his lips awkwardly. "But she's pinned. We should get someone—"

"Do you not understand what I just said?!" Cedwin snapped icily. "She did this to make me care! Don't worry about her—she can free herself."

With that, the ambulance sped off, leaving just the warriors and Belon.

Eventually, Belon shouted my name, but I was paralyzed, watching as my own blood continued to trickle out of me.

Sighing, Belon reasoned, "Just cool off already, 'ma'am. Laura just returned, and it's only right the Alpha dotes on her. Apologize, and he will forgive you, even let you attend the Full Moon festival. That won't happen if t you keep fighting him, and the whole pack will laugh at you…"

I stared at the silver stake that was protruding out of me, and rasped, "Don't bother. Let Laura have my seat."

Belon was stunned, not expecting me to cave that easily.

In the past, I would fight Cedwin to the bitter end when Laura was concerned, breaking things as I demanded why he favored a lycan of a tainted bloodline.

But now, I was tired, and not bothered to ask.

As I was of pure Silvermoon lineage, I had the blessing of the Moon Goddess and I'd be taken back to the past anyway.

Still, Belon wasn't giving up. "Luna…"

"Tell your Alpha that I'm giving my seat at the Full Moon Festival to Laura," I cut him short calmly. "And that he should stay away from me."

Belon was stunned by my reaction and reasoned, "Please, Luna—just calm down. Our Alpha is just a little upset, so just apologize, and he'll let you home anyway. Why go that far for his attention?"

However, I ignored him and looked at the timer in the moonlight again.

[0:03:15]

Meanwhile, Past Cedwin was rummaging through his first aid kit and throwing any medicine that could be used at the moonlight.

"Moon Goddess! Please, take these to her! You can take my blood too!" He cried, his eyes red as he kept punching the wall until his knuckles bled.

  • The Luna's Rejection   Chapter 10

    Laura's hair was a mess just like her dress, and her pride was long gone too.Still, she screamed at Cedwin as if there was still hope, "You told me yourself! That I can do whatever I want with her!"The warriors kept holding her with a vice-grip, one of them yelling, "The rogues sold you out. Now that we have established your connection with them, you will be charged with homicide, trial pending."Laura kept struggling as she yelled at Cedwin, "Useless mongrel! You ruined my life!"However, Cedwin didn't seem to hear her, his eyes remaining glued to Sophia's photo.Suddenly, he frowned and started to rummage through his pockets. "Why are you bleeding, Sophia?"Then, finding only a leaf, he pressed it on Sophia's photo, smiling, "There. Fixed you up good… It's the band-aid I bought you four years ago."He had it in his pocket ever since Sophia got hurt that day, but there was no reason to use it.Four years later, the actual band-aids were naturally long forgotten.Even as Ced

  • The Luna's Rejection   Chapter 9

    Glaring at Cedwin, Laura leaped out of bed and flung his suit into the bin with disdain. "Or what? I should stick with you and end up in the streets, begging for alms? Do you think I really love you? I only love you being an Alpha! And now, you're just another loser!"She then put on her shoes, not hesitating to leave.Cedwin reached for her hand, only for her to slap it away and slap Cedwin across the face. "Don't touch me, filthy mutt!"Cedwin was already shocked by Sophia's death, and Laura's slap sent him spinning, seeing stars as he collapsed on the floor. His wolf was howling hysterically inside, but he didn't even have the strength to move, so he could only watch as Laura left.His heart ached all the more at the memory of Sophia lying in the debris, while his wolf questioned him, "You're thinking it hurts her just as much to see you leave too?"Cedwin shook his head. "No. It hurts her a million times more."He tried to get up and leave, but Past Cedwin had altered the t

    Laura's face paled as she grabbed Cedwin's sleeve. "Please, Cedwin… Your Luna always hated me, and she would die just to hurt me. Or are you going to believe her instead of me? What if this was yet another one of her ruses?"Cedwin didn't avoid her touch, instead grabbing her by the shoulders in turn, gripping so hard he could break a bone.Then, he calmly stated the fact, "Sophia's dead. The silver stake kept her pinned and she was buried alive. She was still carrying our pup"There was a brief flash of joy in Laura's eyes, but she hid it, appearing hurt and caught in disbelief. "What? How? You're lying, aren't you?"Her poor facade only caused Cedwin to swell with fury.However, that was when moonlight spilled through the window, and they both suddenly saw a projection of Past Cedwin, smirking as he stood there.Laura stumbled backward in panic. "What the hell?!"Cedwin ignored her. He stared blankly at the projection of his past self.With a look of disdain, Past Cedwin scof

    In just thirty minutes, Cedwin got the footage from the elders, and Laura's soft voice rang in the living room. "It's not Luna's fault, Cedwin. She's just obsessed over you…"Then, Cedwin heard himself say, "Get Laura out first… Luna staged this entire incident. Since she dared to cause this mess over jealousy, let her stay in there, cool her head. After she admits her mistake, you can get her out."Zooming in on the video, one could see I was clearly bleeding, while Belon reasoned for me to cool off.Then, everyone heard me yielding my seat at the Full Moon Festival to Laura.Cedwin clenched his fist as he once again heard how he had insulted and humiliated Sophia, haughtily calling her a phony who had stolen another werewolf's rights.His nails dug into his own palm, but he felt no pain or anything else.His wolf, however, was howling inside.The footage eventually ended with the entire building collapsing, and there was only dust to be seen.No longer able to hold it in, Ced

    Cedwin strode up, shoving the morgue door out of the way.There, he found the blinding white lights shining on a body covered in white cloth.As Cedwin paused, a warrior lifted the cloth off the body, and the sight alone knocked the air out of Cedwin's lungs.Those remains didn't resemble much of a human—the skull was caved in, the stomach had a gaping hole, and there wasn't much of a face to recognize.Cedwin's eyes, however, were on the fingers.Even though much of it was mashed flesh, he still recognized the ring he had put on Sophia's finger.Four years ago, he had personally designed it. His eyes widened as he reached out, intent on confirming if that ring—the one and only—was the same ring, but soon withdrew his hand as if singed."No, that's impossible… This isn't Sophia, it's not her at all."He spoke, telling himself as much as everyone else, each word more confident with the next. "She can't stand pain, crying every time she gets a papercut, much less this."Then,

    At the VIP hospital room, Cedwin was sitting by the window, patiently peeling a pear for Laura.She still had his suit on her shoulders, lying in bed and looking meek and helpless. Swiping nonchalantly through YouTube, she asked, "Don't you think you went too far with Luna?"Cedwin paused.Laura then continued, "What if something bad happens if she was left there alone?"Cedwin fed her a slice of pear, wiping his fingers as he said mildly, "Don't worry. She could pull herself out of the wreckage and go home whenever she wanted, but she stayed so that I would go to her and cave to her demands. But I won't, so she just has to make up her own mind."As Laura chewed the pear, she smiled smugly and sweetly. "You're the best, Cedwin."Cedwin smiled, the look in his eyes ever so tender.He picked up his phone, ready to call Belon to see if Sophia had finally given up and headed home, only to find Belon calling him.Cedwin frowned, but ultimately answered, "Sir, I'm sorry…"Cedwin p
