Chapter 9

Liora Z
Three days later, at dusk.

I was in the garden trimming roses when a servant ran up to me.

"Luna, there's someone at the gate." His face was pale. "It's Corbin, but…"

"But what?"

"He looks… terrible."

I put down my shears and walked to the gate.

I could hear his wails from a distance.

Through the iron bars, I saw a figure covered in bandages, kneeling on the ground.

Was that really Corbin?

His left arm was in a cast, his face was wrapped in gauze, and he looked like a demon that had crawled out

  • This Time, I Let My Alpha Burn   Chapter 9

    Three days later, at dusk.I was in the garden trimming roses when a servant ran up to me."Luna, there's someone at the gate." His face was pale. "It's Corbin, but…""But what?""He looks… terrible."I put down my shears and walked to the gate.I could hear his wails from a distance.Through the iron bars, I saw a figure covered in bandages, kneeling on the ground.Was that really Corbin?His left arm was in a cast, his face was wrapped in gauze, and he looked like a demon that had crawled out of hell.Worse was his eyes—all reason was gone, replaced by pure terror and despair."Ayla!" He saw me and immediately started crawling forward. "Save me! Please, save me!"I stood inside the gate, looking down at him."Did the alternative treatment fail?""Completely!" He was sobbing like a child. "The girl died, and my rage is worse than ever!""And?""I've severed my bond with Faye!" he pleaded. "I've renounced my Alpha title! My fortune, the pack, it's all yours! Anything!"I scoffed. "And

    We knew nothing of Corbin’s drama, nor did we care.At that moment, I was with Finn in the warm ocean breeze, choosing the next stop for our honeymoon.He was flipping through a leather-bound manual with ancient nautical charts, but his eyes kept wandering over to me.I couldn't help but laugh. "You're not even looking at these, are you?"Finn glanced at the sky. The moon was high. He smirked. "The night is young."I knew exactly what he meant. "Then… I'll go take a bath."He nodded, a flash of light in his eyes, like a wolf king waiting for the hunt.After we had both bathed, he dried my long hair for me, his movements gentle and meticulous, as if handling a priceless treasure.Soon, he swept me into his arms and gently laid me on the soft, massive bed.Finn stroked the mark on my neck. "Our bond… it feels even stronger."I closed my eyes, feeling the energy surging through my veins.The power of the Moon Goddess's blood was fully awakening.I could feel every one of Finn's emotions,

    The day of the ceremony.At ten in the morning, I stood on a pier on the Azure Coast.The Endless Sea stretched out before me, the sea breeze gently caressing my white dress.This private island, named "The Goddess's Tear," was normally closed to the public. Finn had booked it for three whole days."Ready?" Finn walked up behind me, his hands resting on my shoulders.I nodded.In the distance, the roar of helicopters grew louder.One after another, they descended from the sky, carrying rare and exotic flowers from all over the world. Every single bloom was worth a fortune."By the Goddess!" a newly arrived noblewoman gasped. "What fortune must this have cost?""It's not about the cost," her partner said, shaking his head. "Some of these flowers can't even be bought. You need special channels."The guests began to arrive.Alphas from every major pack in the Northern Territories, representatives from the Western Royal families, financial titans from the Golden Avenue—every guest was a ti

    "I found it! I found it!" Faye held up her phone, her voice shaking with excitement. "An alternative! We don't need Ayla's song!"Logan and Elena immediately crowded around her."What is it?" Logan demanded.Faye scrolled frantically, a crazed light in her eyes. "I found a blood shaman on the shadow net. He says he can use an ancient ritual to find a distant relative with a trace of the goddess's bloodline—""And then?" Elena pressed."And use their life force to forge a temporary echo of the power!" Faye's cheeks were flushed. "As long as we find a she-wolf willing to sacrifice herself, we can stabilize Corbin!"Corbin stopped growling. A flicker of reason seemed to return."Really?" He stared intently at Faye's phone."It's true! The shaman said he's done it successfully many times!"Logan and Elena looked at each other, a spark of hope igniting in their eyes.I laughed to myself.I’d heard of this barbaric method in my past life.It worked, for a time. But the cost was an innocent s

    I hung up."Who was that?" Finn asked softly."No one important." I shut my phone off and leaned into his arms.Moonlight streamed through the floor-to-ceiling window. Finn’s hand gently traced the mark on my neck."How does it feel?" His voice was a low, magnetic rumble."Complete." I closed my eyes, sinking into a sense of peace I'd never known. "More complete than I've ever felt."This mate bond was ten times stronger than the one I’d shared with Corbin in my past life.Back then, I thought that was love. Now I knew what a true connection felt like."Me too." Finn kissed my forehead. "After all these years, I finally have you."My phone started vibrating again. Wildly.Corbin's number.I powered it down completely.Just as our celebration dinner ended, a pack servant rushed over."Alpha Finn, Luna Ayla, there are guests at the gate." His face was grim. "They're from the Black Moon Pack."Finn and I exchanged a look."What did they say?""They said it's an emergency. They have to see

    The toxin gradually took effect, and my body began to twitch involuntarily.Corbin pressed his lips together and said coldly, “Enough. Stop pouring it.”Liam let me go. I collapsed onto the sofa, coughing uncontrollably.The burn of the silver vodka seared a path from my throat to my stomach. Every breath was like swallowing fire."This is just a small lesson," Corbin said, looming over me, his voice freezing cold. "If you ever dare to hurt Faye again, it won't be this easy."People were pointing and whispering. Some looked pleased, others offered fake sympathy."Serves her right. She's a vicious one.""Alpha Corbin handled that perfectly. That's how you deal with a woman like her."I ignored them and stumbled toward the restroom.Once inside a stall, I collapsed over the toilet and retched violently.Silvery liquid and stomach acid came up, each heave sending waves of agony through me.After recovering a little, a raging fury burned uncontrollably in my chest.In my last life, the cu
