The Luna’s Return Ronan’s Resolve
Chapter 143 : Ronan’s Resolve (Ronan’s POV)I sat alone in my study, the fire dying low in the hearth, shadows stretching across the walls. My hands rested on the desk, but they felt heavy, weighed down by every thought I couldn’t shake. The truth had come out. Evric had spoken. Selene had tried to deny it. And I… I had felt every stab of betrayal as though it had cut me open from the inside.The anger had come first—sharp, burning, a wildfire that I could barely contain. I had wanted to roar, to punish, to make her feel the fear, the humiliation I’d carried since I heard Evric’s words. But then the anger had collided with something else, something softer but just as fierce: love.I loved her. I had always loved her. I had fought for her, waited for her, lost myself in trying to protect her even when I wasn’t near. And despite everything, I still saw her as the woman who carried my child, who had endured fear and uncertainty and survived.But love was complicated. Love was cruel when
The Luna’s Return The Alpha’s …
Chapter 142 : The Alpha’s Wrath (Ronan’s POV)I watched Selene’s face as the words spilled from Evric’s trembling mouth. My hands clenched into fists so tight that my nails dug into my palms. Every fiber of my body screamed in fury, in disbelief.She had lied. She had betrayed me. She had crossed a line that no mate, no Luna, should ever cross.And now, seeing her panic, seeing her desperate, calculating eyes trying to twist the truth—it lit a fire inside me that I had never felt before. My wolf growled deep within my chest, a low, dangerous warning that only I could hear.“Selene,” I said, my voice low at first, steady but heavy, like the calm before a storm. “Look at me.”She froze, her breathing ragged. For a moment, I thought she might actually confess, might finally let the truth come out. But then, like I should have expected, she tried to turn it, tried to twist the knife in my chest.“He’s lying,” she spat, voice sharp, eyes flashing with panic and anger. “Evric is lying. He w
The Luna’s Return Chapter 141
Chapter 141Ronan’s POVThe moment Evric’s words spilled out of his mouth, a growl ripped through me. The sound echoed in the walls of the house, low and dangerous, carrying the weight of an Alpha’s fury. He shook under my grip, his wrists bound tightly by the ropes I had tied with my own hands. His scent reeked of fear—sweat, shame, and regret—and it fueled the fire in my chest.“They both like each other. They kissed… did things… but never went further…” His voice trembled as he repeated what I had forced him to admit.The words pierced my chest like claws. I had expected betrayal—my instincts had whispered it for weeks—but hearing it confirmed, hearing that another male’s lips had touched what belonged to me, made the beast in me roar.My gaze snapped to Selene. She stood frozen across the room, her face pale, her eyes wide and shimmering with unshed tears. My mate. My supposed Luna. The one who was supposed to stand beside me through everything.“Is it true?” My voice was gravel,
The Luna’s Return Chapter 140
Chapter 140Ronan’s POVThe packhouse was unusually quiet that evening. Selene had just retired to the other room after one of her endless complaints, leaving me to myself in the sitting hall. I leaned back against the armrest of the chair, my wolf restless under my skin. For days I had sensed something off—something lurking in the shadows of my pack, slipping right under my nose.Then the door creaked.At first, I thought it was one of the servants, but the scent that drifted in made me sit upright immediately. Evric.He entered nervously, muttering curses under his breath. He didn’t notice me—his eyes darted left and right, clearly searching for Selene. His fists were clenched, jaw tight, and the rage rolling off him was so sharp it stirred my wolf.“Selene!” Evric’s voice broke through the silence, filled with accusation and raw emotion. “You think you can just use me and then run back to him? Huh?”I froze where I sat, my body still but my mind racing. Use him? Run back to me? Wha
The Luna’s Return Chapter 139
Chapter 139— Mirella’s POVI had never seen a house so big in my life. When Lucien brought me here, I almost thought he had made a mistake, that maybe he had taken me to the Alpha’s mansion instead. The walls rose high, white stone shining under the moonlight, with tall windows that looked like they had been cut from crystal. The front doors were so wide and carved with wolves running across them that I felt small standing in front of them.“This is home now,” Lucien had said, his voice calm but proud, his golden eyes watching me closely as though my reaction mattered more than anything else.For a while, I was too stunned to answer. I had grown used to Ronan’s house, where shadows and silence always clung to the corners. This place was nothing like that—it was alive, warm, welcoming, even though it felt too big for just two people.But the real change came when the pack began to notice.At first, wolves bowed their heads politely when they saw me beside Lucien. They respected him, so
The Luna’s Return Chapter 138
Chapter 138Ronan’s POVI don’t know what’s wrong with me. Ever since Lucien proposed to Mirella and she said yes in front of the pack, something inside me hasn’t rested. The entire pack celebrated, howling in approval, and Lucien stood proud with her at his side. Everyone thought it was a happy ending. Everyone except me.I couldn’t explain why my chest burned every time I saw her smile at him. It felt like fire, eating me from the inside. And when she moved into his new home — that grand house at the edge of the forest, bigger and finer than even most Alphas’ homes — I felt as though a part of me was being ripped away.Tonight, I couldn’t hold myself back anymore. I told myself I was only going to check on Lucien. As Alpha, it was my duty to see how my Beta was settling in. But deep down, I knew it was a lie. What I truly wanted was to see her.The moon was high, silver light spilling across the land as I made my way through the trees. My wolf stirred restlessly inside me, growling
