Semua Bab The Lycan King's Contracted Luna: Bab 91 - Bab 100

LYRA POV Watching Damon with Audrey was like watching a man come back to life.He hadn't left her side since she'd woken up. Every few minutes, he'd reach out to touch her—a hand on her shoulder, fingers brushing her hair back, a gentle squeeze of her hand. As though he needed constant reassurance that she was really there, really awake, really his daughter again.Audrey seemed to understand. She didn't pull away from his attention, didn't complain about his hovering. Instead, she leaned into it, soaking up the affection she'd missed for years.They sat together in the main hall, Audrey curled up beside him on the sofa whilst he told her stories about the pack, about the changes that had happened whilst she slept. She listened with wide eyes, asking questions, laughing at his jokes.I stood near the window, watching them. This was what I'd wanted.A father and daughter reunited. A family made whole again.Then pain lanced through my stomach, sharp and sudden.I pressed my hand agai

DAMON POV The council chamber felt smaller than usual with all five elders packed into it alongside Eric and myself. They'd requested this emergency meeting yesterday, citing urgent security concerns that couldn't wait.The oldest of them, cleared his throat and began. "Damon, we've noticed a significant decrease in patrol coverage along our borders. Particularly the eastern and northern sections."I leaned back in my chair, keeping my expression neutral. "The patrols have been maintained at their usual frequency.""That's precisely the problem." A sharp-eyed woman in her sixties, cut in. "The usual frequency isn't enough anymore. Not with the threats we're facing. That woman found dead at our border proves we need stronger security.""Not to mention the sightings of that Lycan," Third elder added. "Ian, wasn't it? He's been spotted near our territory multiple times. We need more protection."Fourth elder nodded agreement. "The woods between the border and the village are practicall

LYRAIan's face broke into a wide smile the moment I entered the hall. He clapped his hands together slowly, deliberately, the sound echoing through the space."Well, well. Look at you. You've done remarkably well for yourself here." His eyes travelled over me, taking in my appearance. I forced a smile onto my face, keeping my expression pleasant even as disgust curled through my stomach. "That's the difference, isn't it? Your pack didn't favour me. But Damon's pack does. And I must confess, I really love it here.""I can see that." He took another step closer. "You look healthy and happy. The role of Luna suits you.""It does.""Have you been receiving my letters?" The question came out casual, but I caught the tension in his shoulders. The way his jaw tightened slightly.I paused, pretending to think about it. My finger tapped against my chin thoughtfully. "Letters? Oh, you mean the ones I fed to the fire? Or perhaps there were others I kept aside somewhere. I can't quite remember.

IAN POV The journey back to my pack felt endless. Every bump in the road, every jolt of the carriage sent fresh waves of humiliation through me.She'd threatened me. Lyra—the omega I'd rejected, the girl I'd treated like dirt—had threatened me in my face and sent me away like some common beggar.My hands clenched into fists on my lap, nails digging into my palms hard enough to draw blood. The pain did nothing to ease the fury burning through my veins.How dare she? How dare she speak to me like that, accuse me of things she couldn't possibly prove, dismiss my apologies as though they meant nothing?And that threat. To tell Damon I'd assaulted her. To turn the Lycan's wrath on me.My jaw clenched so hard my teeth ached.By the time we reached the pack house, night had fallen completely. The carriage came to an abrupt halt, and I practically threw myself out before it had fully stopped."Alpha!" Anabelle swept down the front steps, her face lighting up when she saw me. "You're back! Ho

DAMON POV The walk back to the pack house felt endless.Lyra had fallen asleep on my back halfway through, her body completely exhausted from the run and the swim. I could feel how light she'd become, how fragile. The curse was eating away at her, stealing her strength bit by bit.My chest ached with the weight of it all.Just days ago, I'd been the happiest I'd ever been. Audrey was awake and healthy. Lyra was by my side as my mate and Luna. We were expecting a child. Everything I'd ever wanted was finally within my grasp.And now I was facing the possibility of losing it all.Losing her.The thought made my throat tighten until I could barely breathe. How could I go back to existing without her? How could I raise our child alone, knowing their mother had sacrificed herself to save me and Audrey?I couldn't. I wouldn't.I'd find a way to save her. No matter what it took, no matter what I had to do, I would break this curse and keep her with me.By the time we reached our chambers
