บททั้งหมดของ The Luna Who Faked Her Death: บทที่ 1 - บทที่ 9

David was no longer the one I used to know.Back then, when he saw me jump into the silver pin with a firm resolve to end my life, his wolf nearly broke apart.Without a moment's hesitation, he leapt in after me and dragged me back from the silver pin.From that day on, unlike everyone else, David didn't point fingers or throw blame at me.Instead, he stood by my side—and comforted me.He told me that everything I had lost would return to me in another form.He said we had to move forward—and if I couldn't forget Jackson, then I should just hide him deep in my heart.Jackson had saved me by sacrificing his life.He didn't do it so I could throw mine away.David saved me time and time again after that.And in order to stop me from ending my life again, he said he would claim me as his mate.He told me,"You have a new life now. Hide Jackson in your heart. But now that you're forming a new bond—you must treasure your own life."From that moment on, David stayed by my side every day, like

I was still sitting on the bed in a daze when David returned.When he turned on the light, he suddenly pulled out a bouquet of flowers from behind his back.He handed them to me, his voice unusually soft."Aria, on my birthday, all I want is for you to stay with me.Only you can be my mate… my Luna.I can't lose you."Hearing those words, I held back a bitter smile.Did love from a he-wolf always come with conditions?Was it always meant to be repaid on their terms?Just then, his phone rang.David stiffened, then quickly turned away and walked into the other room to answer it.He did it so cautiously—as if afraid I might overhear something…Something that could trigger my wolf again.Something that would make everything worse.If I hadn’t already discovered his true intentions,I would have believed he truly cared about me.I reminded myself to act exactly as I always had—so he wouldn’t notice any change in me.So, just as he expected, I asked him in a cautious, hesitant tone—whethe

And just like that, it hit me—my earlier madness had been pointless. Not even worth the tears I shed.Hearing my flat tone, David let out a low, smug chuckle—infuriatingly seductive."Aria, are you upset? Is it because I didn’t come home last night, or because I drove two female friends back?"He paused, then added nonchalantly, “My car broke down on the highway. That’s why I couldn’t answer your calls—I was busy fixing it.”He said it so casually. So smoothly.As if it were the truth.But I heard it—clearly. The soft, breathy moan of a she-wolf on the other end of the line.And then came a low groan from David himself.Maybe it was intentional. Maybe it wasn’t. But it didn’t matter anymore.I pretended not to hear it. “When are you coming back?”David replied quickly, almost as if trying to escape the question.“Just rest. I’ll be home later.”And then—he hung up.I sat there in silence, the sharp beep of disconnection cutting straight through my chest.That she-wolf’s voice—so sultry

I clenched my jaw so hard, it felt like my teeth might crack.My fists trembled with fury, every muscle screaming to strike her.Only the pain of my nails digging into my palms kept me from exploding.I just couldn’t understand.Jackson was gone—he died protecting me.And I… I was broken.I blamed myself.Everyone else did too.They reminded me—over and over, in whispers and stares—that I should’ve died with him.And I tried.More than once.Not just because Jackson was gone…But because I couldn’t survive the weight of their judgment.But when I finally, finally clawed my way out of the darkness—When I dared to breathe again, to live again—They came for me all over again.Accusing. Condemning.Calling me a traitor to his memory.Heartless.Unworthy of the love he gave me.It was David who pulled me out of that pit.And for a while… I believed he was different.That he loved me. Respected me. Saw me.But now I see it clearly—Even David, the one who stood by me through three years of
