last update 公開日: 21.03.2026 19:05:13

The car pulls into Silvermoon as the last light fades from the sky. People are still hard at work—hammering, hauling, rebuilding. They glance up as we drive by, some wave, but most just watch. They know something went down tonight, but they don’t quite know what it is.

Damian parks in front of the cabin where Maya took Greta. He shuts off the engine and turns to me. "You don't have to do anything else tonight. We can handle—"

"I need to see her." I open the door. "Greta. I have to know she’s ok

  • The Rejected Luna's Second Chance   CHAPTER 30: Argument And Settlement

    Selena's POV~The fight kicks off at breakfast.Honestly, I should’ve seen it coming. Damian's been quiet since we sat down, the kind of quiet that signals he’s got something on his mind that he doesn’t want to say. I know that feeling well because I tend to keep things to myself too. It’s a big reason why we both struggle with this."You’re not going after him." He keeps his eyes on his plate.I set my fork down. "I never said I was going after him.""But you were thinking about it. Last night, with Greta's photo. You had that look.""What look?""The look that means you’re gearing up for something risky and you’ve already decided not to tell me until it’s too late."I shoot him a glare. "That’s not fair.""No." He finally meets my gaze. "What’s not fair is you putting yourself in danger for everyone else while never considering what it does to me."Maya, who’s been pretending to read a report at the next table, lowers the paper slowly. Marcus, sitting nearby with his guard, shifts u

  • The Rejected Luna's Second Chance   CHAPTER 29: Father's Photograph

    Selena's POV~The tent feels a bit cramped for six people.Voss is seated at the head of a makeshift table, flanked by two council wolves. Damian is directly across from me, his hand resting on my knee under the table, offering some grounding. Maya stands near the entrance, arms crossed, observing the situation."She mentioned that Aldric is alive." Voss gets straight to the point. "We need to know what you know."I pause before responding. My thoughts are still tangled around Maya's message, the mention of Aldric, and everything my father shared with me during that cold confinement."Selena." Damian's voice is gentle. "You don't have to—""She said he was the true prize." I hear my own voice break the silence. "Elena at the lodge. She was about to reveal his name before Caden interrupted her."Voss leans in closer. "What do you know about him?""Nothing." I wrap my arms around myself. "My father claimed Kael was my real father. Aldric's son. That's all I know."The council wolves exc

  • The Rejected Luna's Second Chance   CHAPTER 28: Let Me Fight

    Damian's POV~I can't believe she's putting herself in danger like this.From my spot at the edge of the construction site, I can’t help but feel tense. Selena is on the far side, hauling timber with a bunch of warriors, looking as if she’s been doing this forever. Her sleeves are rolled up, her hair’s pulled back, and there’s a mix of sweat and dirt on her face. She bursts into laughter at something Maya said, and it hits me hard—just two days after her father revealed his betrayal.And there she is, laughing.It doesn’t feel right. She’s not normal; she’s something else entirely. Watching her lift those beams and joke around like she hasn’t faced hell makes my chest twist with worry.Near the medical tent, Greta sits on a crate, her granddaughter asleep against her shoulder. She's been helping with minor injuries, finding purpose in the work. The girl is still quiet, still watching everyone with wary eyes, but yesterday she smiled. Small, fleeting, but there. Greta hasn't stopped ta

  • The Rejected Luna's Second Chance   CHAPTER 27: Morning After

    Selena's POV~I wake to warmth.Not the cold of the Slivermoon hunting lodge’s floor or the damp of my clothes from last night. Just warmth. Solid. Steady. Damian's arm is wrapped around my waist, his chest pressed against my back, his breath slow and even against my hair. I don't remember falling asleep. I don't remember him pulling me close. But somehow, in the dark, we found each other.The lodge is quiet. Outside, the first gray light of dawn is streaming through the windows. Somewhere nearby, someone is stacking wood, the clink of metal on stone muffled by distance. Maya's voice carries for a second—something sharp, probably telling a warrior to stop standing around. Then silence again.I should move. Should get up, help with the morning meal, check on Greta and the girl, make sure Lucas is still in custody. There's a thousand things to do. But I can't make myself move. Can't make myself leave the circle of his arms."You're thinking too loud." His voice is rough, sleep-thick. Hi

  • The Rejected Luna's Second Chance   CHAPTER 26: TheTruth

    Selena's POV~Bloodmoon feels smaller than I remember.We cross the border without a pause. The council wolves wave us through; they know exactly who we are and why we're here.Damian drives with one hand on the wheel, the other holding mine. He hasn’t let go since we pulled away from the lodge, and I haven’t asked him to."Where are they keeping him?" Maya asks from the back seat."Council holding cells. East side," Caden replies, sitting next to her. He tagged along without being invited, and I can’t tell if it’s guilt, duty, or maybe he just doesn’t want to be alone.The pack grounds fly by—houses from my childhood, the streets I used to walk, and the platform where Caden rejected me. I quickly look away.Damian's thumb gently traces circles on my hand.---The holding cells are located in an old building behind the pack house. It’s got concrete walls, iron doors, and harsh floodlights that make everything look bleached out.A council guard meets us at the entrance. "He’s been aski

  • The Rejected Luna's Second Chance   CHAPTER 25: Hunting Lodge

    The car moves through darkness, headlights cutting a narrow path through trees that have stood here for centuries. Marcus sits up front with Damian, giving directions in a low voice. Maya is beside me in the back, her knife already in her hand, her jaw set. Caden rides in the vehicle behind us with Voss and two council wolves.Caden is positioned at the road, keeping watch. We called him after Esther's files turned up Lucas's name. He didn't hesitate—he'd spent months hunting the truth on his own, and when we told him what his brother had done, he asked how he could help. Not as an Alpha. Not as a brother. Just as someone trying to make things right.None of us speak. There's nothing left to say.The road narrows, turns to gravel, then dirt. Marcus points to a clearing ahead. "Pull over here. The lodge is a quarter mile east. We go the rest on foot."Damian kills the lights. The engine dies. Silence rushes in—the kind that presses against your ears, makes every breath sound like thund
