Todos los capítulos de The Luna Who Walked Away: Capítulo 1 - Capítulo 10

Chapter 1 — The Night of SilenceThe music is too loud.People are laughing, talking, dancing, raising their glasses.And yet, I feel like I am the only one standing still.They call it my night. My twenty-eighth birthday. The Luna of Silvercrest Pack, glowing and graceful, surrounded by joy.That’s what they see.That’s what I’m supposed to be.But I can’t find him.Kael.My husband. My Alpha. The man I’ve built my life around, the man whose love I’ve chased like a shadow that never turns back to meet me.I look around the hall again. Chandeliers hang low, dripping gold light onto polished marble. People keep coming up to me — “Happy birthday, Luna!” “You look stunning!” “Where’s the Alpha?”I smile, nod, say thank you, and pretend my heart isn’t sinking deeper with every passing minute.Where is he?He promised. He said he’d come early. He said tonight would be special. “A night just for you,” he’d whispered this morning, his hand brushing my cheek, his eyes soft — or maybe I only i

Chapter 3 — The Bond That BreaksThe room is quiet except for the soft thud of my suitcase closing.I stare at the open drawers, the empty shelves. Everything looks hollow, like my chest.I fold my last dress slowly, carefully, because if I move too fast I might start crying.The night air slips through the window, cool and sharp.I’m leaving.The word feels heavy, but it’s the only thing that makes sense.I’ve spent years in this room waiting for love to bloom out of silence. It never did.The door opens.Kael steps in.His scent hits me first—cedar and rain. It used to make me feel safe.Now it just reminds me of everything I’m trying to forget.“Elara,” he says quietly. “Where are you going?”I don’t turn. “Away.”He sighs. “Don’t start. I came to apologize.”I zip the bag and finally face him. His eyes look tired, softer than before.“I didn’t mean to slap you,” he says. “You made me angry, that’s all. If you’d just done what I asked, it wouldn’t have happened.”I let out a dry la

Chapter 5 — The Luna Who BuildsThe city smells different from Silvercrest — less pine, more smoke and steel.I watch it from the hotel window as dawn slips between the buildings.Somewhere beyond those clouds, the moon hides her face.Mira is still asleep on the couch. She insisted on staying close, just in case.I don’t wake her. For the first time in years, I like the silence.No guards, no gossiping maids, no Kael. Only the soft hum of the air-conditioner and the sound of my own heartbeat.---By noon the messages start coming.Old pack elders, minor Alphas, cousins of councilmen — names that used to ignore me now crowd my phone.Mira frowns at the screen. “Half of these people didn’t even greet you at the last gathering.”“I know.”“They don’t want alliance, Elara. They just want safety. If Silvercrest collapses, they’ll want to say they stood beside you so they won’t fall with him.”I smile faintly. “Exactly.”She blinks. “Then why meet them at all?”“Because loyalty bought with

Chapter 7 — The Banquet of WolvesThe air in the North is different.Colder. Thinner. It bites through my skin as if it knows I’m not one of its own. The snow stretches endlessly, and the moonlight bleeds silver across the mountains. Somewhere beyond the frost-bitten horizon lies Doom’s packhouse — a fortress carved out of stone and silence.I adjust the fur collar around my neck and take a deep breath.Tonight, the North opens its doors to every Alpha, every Luna, every powerful name in the werewolf world. It’s a banquet of wolves — alliances wrapped in polite smiles, betrayal poured into wine glasses.Mira walks beside me, heels crunching softly against the marble floors of Doom’s grand hall. “You don’t look nervous,” she whispers, almost as if she’s surprised.“I’m not,” I say, my tone even. “I don’t have the energy to tremble anymore.”The chandeliers above glimmer like icicles. Every corner of the room screams wealth — tall golden pillars, velvet drapes, the faint scent of snow a

Chapter 9 – The Test of StrengthThe air smells of metal and dust.Morning light drips through the tall glass panels of the training field, touching the specks of sand dancing in the air. I stand on the platform, arms folded behind my back, watching a young man swing a wooden blade toward his opponent. His form is good—strong wrists, steady breathing—but his balance gives away on the fourth strike. I see it before it happens, the falter of his left foot, the hesitation before the counter.“Your stance,” I call, and my voice carries across the field, steady and calm. “Keep your weight centered. Don’t lean in too much when you strike.”He freezes, then straightens. “Yes, Luna—” he stops himself and lowers his gaze. “Yes, Alpha Elara.”It’s the first day of recruitment.The field is filled with the scent of sweat and ambition. Every corner hums with movement—men and women, some seasoned warriors, some wanderers seeking a place to belong. They’ve come to earn a spot in what the press has
