When the Luna Awakens Chapter 8
Three years later."Luna, the list of important guests is compiled."I took the file from my assistant and scanned it quickly.The Moonlight Festival was approaching, and as the pack's Luna, I needed to ensure every detail was perfect."Very good, you may go.""One more thing," the assistant hesitated, "There's a gentleman at the entrance asking to see you. He claims to be an old acquaintance."I looked up.Through the floor-to-ceiling window, I saw a familiar figure standing at the courtyard entrance.Liam.Three years had passed in a flash. He looked much more worn, his suit rumpled, his stubble unkempt, and his eyes held undeniable fatigue."Let him in."A few minutes later, Liam stood before me.He opened his mouth, but no sound emerged."Did you need something?" My tone was calm, as if speaking to a stranger."Selena, I..." His voice was hoarse, "I've been looking for you for three years.""And?"He took a deep breath, "I want you to come back."I smiled.Bringing up those old mat

Liam fell silent.He couldn't deny it; he had felt something for Sophia these past five years.That sense of familiarity, that easy understanding, the feeling of being understood without needing to explain.But it wasn't love.At least, not the kind of love he should have felt for Selena."Sophia," he took a deep breath, "From today, you don't need to come to the pack lands anymore. Your advisor position is terminated, and all related duties are being reassigned.""You're kicking me out?""I'll give you a sum of money, enough for you to start over anywhere you wish."Sophia shook her head, her eyes growing frantic. "I don't want money, I want you!""That's impossible.""Why? Because of her?" Her voice turned sharp. "What is she? Some outsider who doesn't understand pack traditions, who's never even attended an elder's council—""She's my mate," Liam cut her off. "No matter what I've done, that fact doesn't change.""But she gave up on you!" Sophia pointed to the document on the tablet.

Liam stormed out of the meeting room, heading straight for the parking lot.He waved his driver away, getting into the Rolls-Royce alone.The engine roared to life, and the car sped away.He fumbled for his phone while driving, dialing Selena.First try, no answer.Second try, the phone was off.Third try, it went straight to voicemail.He gritted his teeth, flooring the gas pedal.He covered in fifteen minutes what usually took forty.The car screeched to a halt at the main house. He didn't spare the vehicle a glance, bursting inside."Selena?"Only the hollow echo of his own voice answered him.He went upstairs, pushing open the bedroom door.The closet was half-open, its contents sparse.Selena's skincare products were gone from the dresser.On the nightstand, the book she always flipped through before bed had vanished.Liam stood frozen, his breathing growing ragged.He rushed to the study, Selena's usual space for handling pack matters as Luna.The ancient texts were still on the

The banquet hall buzzed with the clinking of glasses.Elders, each with a glass of whiskey before them, were gathered around the long oak table.Besides intricate documents, the table was laden with delicious food, its aroma made mouths water.Thanks to Sophia's suggestion, this year's elder Gathering felt more like a family gathering than the usual serious affair.Yet, Liam, seated at the head of the table, seemed lost in thought.He had been distracted ever since Selena's call that morning.His fingers tapped idly on the tabletop.Selena was never one to lie. That urgent call must mean something had happened.He glanced down at his phone, but there had been no new messages from her since then.He had meant to head back that afternoon, but Sophia had been so persistent that he had lost track of time.What could possibly be happening?"Alpha," the elder in charge of the hunt cleared his throat, "that's the proposed plan for this year's Spring Hunt. Do you have any suggestions?""It's f

The two of them left, got into the car, and hadn't emerged from it since.Their intertwined silhouettes spoke of their intensity.I stood there a moment, then turned and walked away.When I got home, I dropped my bag and sank onto the couch.My phone vibrated.A message from my friend Riley popped up:"Got it. Sent the files to your email."Riley is a private investigator specializing in discreet investigations within the werewolf community.I'd hired her three days ago to look into Sophia's background.Her speed is top-notch in the business. I hadn't expected results this quickly.I opened my email.A PDF file, thirty pages long.It detailed Sophia and Liam's history.The file stated that though they weren't from the same pack, they had known each other since childhood and grown up together.If she hadn't insisted on breaking up seven years ago, everyone believed they would have been true mates.I flipped to another page, detailing Sophia's past.An East Coast migratory wolf. Her pare

I leaned against the wall, watching them.Through the floor-to-ceiling windows, two people succumbed to their desires. His hand gripped her waist, and they kissed deeply.My wolf howled inside me, a tearing sensation spreading from my chest to my limbs.The mate bond felt like it was fraying.Not a sudden break, but bit by bit, like a rusty chain slowly pulled apart.I turned and walked away, my steps feeling strangely light.Back in the car, I didn't start the engine right away.I just sat there, staring at the club doors.It was six thirty in the morning, and the streets were empty.The city hadn't woken up yet, but betrayal had already taken root.My phone buzzed again.Liam: You don't need to pick up the custom suit for me. I'll go myself.I stared at the message, not replying.After a while, they drove away, heading toward the upscale shopping district downtown.I parked far down the street, watching them walk hand-in-hand into a luxury boutique.They looked like any real couple,
