All Chapters of Alpha's Regret: Chasing My Forsaken Luna: Chapter 71 - Chapter 78

Raven’s POVThe envelope sat on the kitchen counter like a ticking bomb. Its gold seal caught the morning sun, glinting like the judgment it carried. I stared at it for a long moment, my breathing pattern slow. My wolf shifted inside me, with speed and low growls, I sipped on my tea.My fingers trembled as I broke the seal.I pulled the letter out. The official Alpha Council crest stared back at me, the script elegant, written in cold words.‘You are hereby summoned for formal inquiry regarding accusations of Luna abandonment, mate bond fraud, and questionable affiliations with Alpha-ranked males outside your declared bond.’My heart raced, making my knees buckle turning white, as I gripped the edge of the kitchen, stopping myself from collapsing.I held the counter edge of the cupboard to keep my feet rooted to the ground. My vision blurred for a second. I blinked until the words became clearer.The accusations were claiming I used the bond to manipulate Rune. That I walked away. Tha

Rune’s POVI tilted my head, watching as the hall filled with Council members and other formalities. My blood boiled under my skin, though I could taste the fear flowing from them.My boots echoed against the polished floor as I walked in with my jaw set, heart pounding faster than my steps. Beads of sweat formed on my forehead, but I didn’t show it.The guards stood by the walls, their expressions unreadable as they stood still like statues. At the front, the Tribunal Circle sat elevated on stone thrones, each carved with the sigils of their regions. In the center sat Alpha Caldor, he was on the High Seat. His face was cold, and stiff. “Alpha Rune,” Caldor began, his voice both sharp and heavy. “We question your loyalty, your choices, and your judgment.”I didn’t flinch, at least I didn’t let them see it. The fear I carried wasn’t for myself, it was the ache in my chest, the dread of Raven’s name being dragged through the mud.A man in a robe, one of the Council aides stepped forwar

Raven’s POVThe Council chamber was a mess, blood spread on the floor. The walls had cracks. And pieces of the windows laid on the floor, bodies everywhere, some alive, some not.I stepped over a broken spear, my eyes scanned around the floor noting my blood on the floor, Logan was in front of me, holding his side.“Are you bleeding?” I asked.“It’s just a shallow cut,” he said, breathing hard. “Where are the others?”Rune appeared by the doorway, claws still half-shifted. His face was hard. “The rogues are gone, for now.”I looked down at the blood on my hands. I didn’t even know whose it was.Then a Council guard burst through the door. He dragged a rogue in chains. The rogue’s clothes were torn, his mouth bloody from a fight. He was still grinning.“We caught him in the tunnels,” the guard said. “He was trying to escape.”I walked up to him. “Why are you here?”The rogue spat on the floor. “You were supposed to be dead.”Logan stepped beside me. “Answer her.”The rogue laughed. “Sh

Raven’s POVWe ran fast, as though something was chasing us from behind.The walls were closing in, but we didn’t slow down, and our breath were coming out forced, he didn't also stop to catch air.The Council chamber was no longer safe, not with rogues already inside. I could smell their blood. Their hate was always noticeable, their plan was working."They got in through someone," I said, while trying to catch my breath.Rune said nothing, he turned his face to watch at me while he just kept pace beside me. I didn’t want him next to me, but I wasn’t stupid enough to turn down help, at least not now, my life was in danger.We reached the hall, my eyes grew on where the guards had gone silent. A heavy body slumped at the entrance and his head detached from his body."They came through this way," Rune said, sniffing the air.I gave a light nod, while I shifted slightly, just enough to let my wolf take over my senses. My claws slid out. I heard the scratch of nails against stone before
