The evening breeze swept across the lake, carrying a faint, damp chill.

Adrian stood in front of me, his tall frame looking strangely unsteady.

"Elena, I know I've been a terrible person," he said, his eyes reddening. For the first time, his voice was filled with genuine panic.

"I got so used to having you by my side that I thought you'd wait for me no matter what happened. But in the past month, every time I close my eyes at night, all I see is you covered in blood. The entire estate feels

  • The Unchosen Moon    Chapter 10

    The evening breeze swept across the lake, carrying a faint, damp chill.Adrian stood in front of me, his tall frame looking strangely unsteady."Elena, I know I've been a terrible person," he said, his eyes reddening. For the first time, his voice was filled with genuine panic. "I got so used to having you by my side that I thought you'd wait for me no matter what happened. But in the past month, every time I close my eyes at night, all I see is you covered in blood. The entire estate feels empty. Everywhere I go, I think I can still see you. Then I turn around, and there's nothing."He took half a step toward me, almost begging. "Please, just give me one more chance. We can have more children someday. I'll spend the rest of my life making it up to you."The moment he mentioned the baby, my expression hardened. "Adrian, that baby isn't something you can simply replace. And neither are the five years I gave you."I looked at the moonstone necklace in his hand.When I was 18, I

  • The Unchosen Moon    Chapter 9

    I had been living in the small town for a month.Winters there were nowhere near as cold as they were in the Frost Moon Pack, and a peaceful lake stretched out beyond my window.Mom came up with something new to cook for me every day, slowly restoring the weight I had lost.Julian also worked at the town's healing center. He was not much of a talker, but he always seemed to notice how I was feeling.Whenever I went for a follow-up appointment, he made sure I had a warm cup of herbal tea waiting for me. If I could not sleep and sat by the lake at night, lost in thought, he would bring me a blanket and quietly sit beside me for a while. He never once asked about what had happened in the Frost Moon Pack.The peace I had missed for so long slowly helped me forget those suffocating nights.Then, one evening, Julian and I were returning from the town market when we spotted a black SUV parked by the roadside, just before we reached home.The car door opened, and Adrian stepped out.He

    Half an hour later, the assistant delivered the security footage and investigation reports to Adrian's study.Adrian sat behind his desk, watching the video over and over again.In the footage, Vivian approached me and said a few words with a smile. Then she deliberately stumbled backward. A second later, Adrian rushed into the frame and shoved me away without hesitation.My lower back slammed hard against the corner of the wooden table. I doubled over in pain, my face turning deathly pale. Meanwhile, he held Vivian in his arms without even looking back at me.The video was only 20 seconds long, yet Adrian watched it ten times.Every time he saw me clutching the table and pressing a hand against my lower abdomen, it felt as if a set of claws were tearing a piece out of his heart."There's something else, Alpha." The assistant lowered his head and handed him another medical report. "After tracing the records on Vivian's computer, we discovered that she bribed a black-market ph

    "Where is she?" Adrian grabbed a passing healer by the arm, his voice terrifyingly icy.The healer jumped in surprise. "Elena was discharged this afternoon. Her brother came to take her home.""She hasn't recovered yet! How could you let her leave?"The healer frowned. "Alpha, Elena insisted on leaving less than ten minutes after you left. We tried to talk her out of it, but she said staying here would only make her suffer more."Adrian froze.He tried to reach out to me through our mind-link, only to remember that when he had decided to make Vivian his mate, he had already found a way to completely block the link between us.He pulled out his phone and dialed my number. All he heard was an automated message."The number you've dialed is no longer in service."Unwilling to give up, he called Ethan instead. The phone rang for a long time before someone finally answered."Where's Elena?" Adrian got straight to the point.An icy laugh came from the other end. "Alpha, so you've f

    Adrian did not answer the call. He simply silenced his phone and stood beside my bed, looking at me. "Elena, I'll stay here with you for the next few days. I'm sorry about the baby. I know I failed you. Once you're feeling better, we can go back to the way things used to be. What do you say?"I looked at him and almost laughed. "Back to the way things used to be? Continue being your secret lover, hidden away from everyone? Or keep watching you and Vivian appear in public as mates while I pretend to be nothing more than your little sister?"Adrian frowned. "I told you, Vivian and I are only temporary. She only has one month left. Once that month is over...""You don't have to wait," I interrupted. "Adrian, we're already broken up."His expression darkened. "Elena, I know you're upset about the baby, but stop throwing the word 'breakup' around."As far as he was concerned, every time I talked about leaving, it was just me throwing a fit because I felt hurt.After all, I had loved h

    When I woke up, the hospital room was silent. The air was thick with the smell of medicine, a smell I had always hated. A dull, dragging pain throbbed in my lower abdomen, as if something had been ripped out of me.Instinctively, I reached down to touch my stomach. It was flat and cold."Elena."Ethan took my hand. His eyes were terribly red. "Don't move. The healer says you're still very weak."I looked at him. My lips moved, but my voice was so hoarse that barely a whisper came out. "What happened to the baby?"Ethan's hand trembled. He looked away and stayed silent for a long moment before finally answering in a low voice."It was too late by the time they got you here. They couldn't save the baby."I stared up at the white ceiling, numb with shock. I could not cry or scream, could not even summon a single tear. I had only found out about the baby three days ago.That day, I had held the test results in my hands for a long time before deciding to tell Adrian at my twenty-t
