Semua Bab The Reborn Luna: Never Again!: Bab 41 - Bab 50

Amara’s Point of ViewThe council room had been chaos when Aarhea spoke. Her words were sharp, and some of the elders looked like they believed her.My stomach twisted. I could feel everything slipping, the careful web we’d built starting to unravel.Later that night, we gathered in Dad's private study. Logan paced, restless, while Dad sat calmly at the desk, fingers tapping on the wood. I leaned against the wall, arms crossed, trying to control my panic.“She’s dangerous,” Logan muttered.“Aarhea’s not just talking anymore. She has references. She has proof. If we don’t cut this off....” Logan stopped talking when I spoke.“She’ll destroy everything,” I finished for him, my voice tight.“I saw the elders’ faces. Some of them are doubting now. If she pushes harder, they’ll start asking questions we can’t answer.” i continued.Roman finally looked up at us, his eyes cold. “Panicking won’t save us. We expected Aarhea to fight back. What matters now is how we redirect it.” he informed us

Aarhea’s Point of ViewJake and I sat across from each other in my office. Papers covered the table, but none of them mattered compared to the storm around us.Jake leaned forward. “We can’t waste time. If we sit still, they’ll trap us again.”“I know,” I whispered. “But we can’t rush. One wrong step, and the council will side with them.”He clenched his fists. “So we pretend? Smile at them? Act like we’re grateful?”“Yes,” I said firmly. “We play their game until we’re ready to break it.”Jake’s jaw tightened. He hated the idea. But after a long pause, he nodded. “Then let’s plan.”Before we could continue, the door opened. Roman walked in with Amara and Logan, as if they owned the place.“Alpha Aarhea,” Roman greeted with a polite bow. “I hope we’re not disturbing.”“You always come uninvited,” Jake muttered.Roman ignored him. “We thought you might need help. After all, ruling a pack is no easy burden.”I forced a smile. “I appreciate your concern. But I can handle it.”Amara stepp

Aarhea’s Point of ViewThe night was quiet when I heard a faint knock on my room door. Jake stood by the window, tense.Jake whispered, “At this hour? Careful, Aarhea.”I opened the door slowly. Elias slipped inside, his face pale, sweat on his forehead.“Alpha Aarhea,” Elias whispered. “Please, I need to talk.”Jake stepped closer, eyes sharp. “You could be followed.”“I wasn’t,” Elias said quickly. “I made sure. I waited until the guards changed shifts.”I closed the door and lowered my voice. “Elias, what is it? Last time you wanted to say something but Logan stopped you.”He nodded, trembling. “Yes. And if they knew I was here, I’d be dead already.”Jake frowned. “Dead? Why?”Elias took a shaky breath. “Because my father wasn’t the traitor. He never was. He admitted it only because Roman forced him. Roman threatened me.”I froze. “Threatened you?”Elias nodded. “He said if Father didn’t confess, he would accuse me instead. He said he’d make it look like I wanted you as my mate, Al

Aarhea’s Point of ViewThe training field was still buzzing. Everyone had seen what happened.Jake beating Logan without even shifting. It should have been a moment of pride, but the murmurs around me carried another weight.“Too strong for someone wolfless.”“That wasn’t natural.”“Did you see the way Logan fell?”I clenched my fists.Jake leaned toward me, his voice low. “Don’t listen to them.”But I did. Every word pierced me.Roman stepped forward, raising his voice. “Alpha Aarhea, with all respect, doesn’t this concern you?”I looked at him sharply. “Concern me? Why should it? Jake won fairly.”Roman tilted his head. “Fairly… or unnaturally? A man without a wolf defeating a trained warrior who shifted? Forgive me, Alpha, but it doesn’t add up.”Logan, still holding his ribs, spat on the ground. “He’s hiding something. No wolfless man fights like that.”The crowd nodded. I could feel their eyes turning toward me.“Enough,” I snapped. “Jake is part of my pack. My decision stands.”

Aarhea’s Point of ViewFor days, something kept bothering me. Amara, Logan, and Roman were too quiet. They didn’t mock Jake anymore. They didn’t sneer when I passed by. They didn’t even try to argue.It wasn’t peace. It was silence. And silence could be dangerous.At the university, Amara and I walked side by side through the halls, folders tucked under our arms. Graduation was close, and this was the last of our requirements.Amara gave me a small smile. “Finally. Just one more paper for the registrar, and we’re done.”I nodded. “Yes. No more professors chasing us for signatures.”She laughed softly, but it didn’t sound like her usual laugh. Normally she’d tease me for being serious or complain about how boring this was. But today, nothing. Just that fake smile.“Amara,” I asked quietly, “why are you so quiet lately?”She glanced at me. “Quiet? I don’t think so.”“Yes, you are. You haven’t even said a word about Jake since the trial. Not one insult. That’s not like you.”Her li
