Masuk"Camilla, listen to me, I didn't know you were pregnant, but we can have other children..." Adrian tried to explain."I don't want to hear it.""Sir, visiting hours are over. You must leave now."I let out a sigh of relief and turned to walk toward my room.Just as I was about to close the door."Camilla! If I hadn't touched her, if I had stopped everything in time.""Would you have left me?""Would our mate bond not have been broken?"My steps faltered. I didn't turn back, didn't answer. I shut the door, separating myself from him and everything he represented.After all, in this world, there are no "what ifs."And I had already found a new life for myself.From outside the door came Adrian's furious wolf howl, followed by the hurried footsteps of security personnel.I leaned against the door, feeling the faint emotional echoes that remained from our severed bond.The moment I saw him, all the buried memories came flooding back.The Alpha who had once gently marked me, the man who had
"Everyone, this donor has provided an unprecedented amount of funding for our project."The director's voice echoed through the conference room."An amount equivalent to the entire reserve of a medium-sized pack."I heard my colleagues gasp in amazement."This massive sum will advance our research by at least three years."I stared blankly at the familiar face on the screen, my fingers clenching into a fist."In return, Mr. Blackwood will be granted special visitation access to our facility.""He will arrive tomorrow to meet with all our core therapists."I forced myself to remain calm, my face an emotionless mask as I stared at the hologram.This Alpha had diverted nearly half of his pack's reserves, sinking it all into our werewolf healing research project.All just to buy his way into this high-security program.Warm applause filled the room as my colleagues buzzed with excitement over the enormous donation."His funds will help us accelerate the breakthrough in Wolfsbane detoxifica
Zoe never imagined he would be so utterly without mercy, and her pleas grew more desperate and shrill.But Adrian didn't even spare her a glance.After dealing with the traitorous she-wolf, Adrian threw all his energy back into the search for me.But whether he used his informants within the Werewolf Council or activated the entire North American wolf-pack intelligence network, he still found no trace of me.Even his contacts within the Werewolf Kingdom said they could find no records of me.It was as if I had completely vanished from the werewolf world."Impossible!"Adrian slammed his fist on the table, shattering a crystal glass."How can a Luna just disappear into thin air?"Just then, Adrian remembered the question I had asked him on the night of our marking anniversary.He had sworn to the Moon Goddess that if he ever betrayed me, he would be condemned to never find me for all eternity.He never thought it would become a self-fulfilling prophecy, his most cruel curse.He suddenly
"No... impossible..."Adrian's hand trembled as he scrolled down.The last record was an appointment confirmation from a private clinic:'Ms. Camilla, your scheduled procedure has been completed. Please take your medication on time and get plenty of rest.'The timestamp showed it was the day before I left.Adrian's voice was like a dazed whisper."She was carrying our child, but she... she got rid of it..."The child he never knew existed had been lost to its mother's despairing rage.I made the difficult decision knowing the pup would have been born into a broken family, without a father's presence. Besides, the conditions of the secret program would not have allowed me to give birth to him anyway.This was the child of my bond with Adrian, the continuation of our bloodline.Now, it would never be born.Adrian let out a heart-wrenching howl, his voice filled with fury, agony, and despair.He had lost not only his Luna, but also their unborn pup.And it was all because of Zoe's foolis
After exhausting every option, Adrian had no choice but to return to the manor."Alpha, why are you back?" the butler asked, trembling.He threw open the door to the master bedroom, only to find that all scents and traces of me had been erased by ancient magic.He couldn't catch even a wisp of my scent, as if I had never existed in this world at all.The closet, the vanity, every trace of me in the air was completely gone.He then rushed to my study.My healing texts were gone from the shelves. The notes on my herbal formulas had vanished from the desk.Even my family's heirloom moonstone and our family seal were gone.Those things were symbols of my family's status. He knew I would never abandon them unless I never planned to return.Mark stood to the side, his voice tentative."Alpha, could there have been a misunderstanding with the Luna? Maybe she left in a fit of anger?"His wolf erupted in an instant."What nonsense are you spouting?""Contact every pack member, now!""Use every
A sharp pain shot through me, as if my very soul were being ripped in two.Through the car window, I saw Adrian let out a pained howl, his body convulsing as he doubled over.It was a shock that he could still feel such agony through me.Zoe held him in a panic, saying something I couldn't hear.But Adrian ignored her, frantically dialing my number.My phone screen lit up. "Adrian."I rejected the first call. A second one followed immediately.I ignored his desperate calls, pulled out the SIM card, and snapped it in two.The plastic shards slipped through my fingers, a fitting mirror of our shattered mate bond.The light turned green, and our cars drove off in different directions.I took one last look in the rearview mirror. Adrian's car was still parked where it had been.He tried to get out and run after me, but traffic blocked his way.My car drove further and further away until his figure was swallowed by the night."Damn it! Camilla!"Adrian threw his car door open and, ignoring
