Moonbreak My Alpha Ex-Husband's Regret After I Left のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Aria's POVWhen I handed Ethan the Moonbreak Herb, he was busy sweet-talking his little girlfriend Lily on the phone."Ethan, let's break the mate bond. This Moonbreak Herb will dissolve our connection over thirty days with no pain or side effects, and then I'll leave the Blood Moon Pack and we'll be done for good."He made some vague sound and took the cup without even looking, downing it in one gulp before immediately going back to cooing at the she-wolf on the other end."Okay, okay, I'm coming over to see you right now, alright?"After he hung up, Ethan headed for the door, but then he suddenly turned around. "Oh, Aria, what was that drink you just gave me?"I forced a smile. "Moonbreak—"Ethan waved his hand impatiently. "Whatever. I need to go see Lily now. I'll come back and have dinner with you next time."Then he was gone.I still remember the first time we met at Howling Bar. I was there to pick up a friend and happened to run into a very drunk Ethan.When he walked past me,

Aria's POVLily's claws tore across my cheek with full force, and three bloody scratches opened up on my face.I grabbed my cheek instinctively. "Lily! What the hell are you doing!"Rage flooded through me a second later, and I moved to strike back without thinking. But then a powerful alpha grip locked around my wrist, and I could feel the mate bond itself forcing me to submit.Ethan had my wrist in his hand, and anger simmered in his voice. "Aria, Lily didn't do anything to you. Why are you attacking her?"I yanked my numb wrist back. "I attacked her? Ethan, ask any of these people who hit first!"Lily immediately put on this pitiful expression. "Ethan, you said I was too weak and that pack members need to build courage, so I thought I'd try challenging the luna in public to practice. I couldn't find any other opportunity. But luna was so fierce just now, and her wolf almost dominated mine. I got so scared."After hearing this explanation, Ethan frowned. "I told you to build courage,

Aria's POVOn my birthday, I threw a party at home. But when it was time to start, Ethan still hadn't shown up.Everyone at the party kept asking where he was and whether he was planning a surprise. After all, every year before this, he'd stayed by my side the entire time on my birthday.I didn't answer their questions. I just grabbed a bottle of champagne and popped it open like a firecracker. "Happy birthday to me!"Everyone laughed and raised their glasses."Happy birthday to our most beautiful and powerful Luna!"I smiled. "I'm ready to tell Ethan that we should—"The sound of the door slamming open cut me off.All the guests in the living room turned around, and then everyone gasped at the same time.Lily stood in the doorway, supporting a very drunk Ethan. When she noticed everyone staring at her, her face flushed red, and she started stammering. "S-sorry to interrupt. I just brought Ethan home."Today was my birthday, and he'd gotten drunk with another woman.I set down my glass

Aria's POVBy evening, Lily's two massive suitcases were piled in the foyer.She stood in the living room like she owned the place and waved at the staff. "Get rid of all these lilies—I want roses. And make venison for dinner with my herb recipe."I sat by the window and stared out at the darkening sky. Ethan was flipping through files on the couch, but his gaze kept drifting toward me with something like worry mixed with guilt.I stood up and walked over to the wall calendar.Another day gone.I tore off today's page, and the ripping sound cut through the silence.Ethan's head snapped up. "You tear off a page every single day. What are you counting down to?""Nothing." I didn't look at him and just stared at the shrinking stack of paper. "Just gives me something to do."He got up fast, and panic flashed in his eyes. "Aria, this is our den. My promise to you still stands—Lily shouldn't be living here. I'll take her back right now."He turned toward the stairs and shouted up, "Pack your

Ethan's POVLily's fever finally broke around dawn.I coaxed her to sleep in the guest room, then dragged myself out to the balcony. The moonlight hit my skin, and I could feel my wolf spirit stirring restlessly beneath the surface, pacing like a caged animal.I rubbed my throbbing temples and reached out through the mate bond to contact Aria."Aria, something came up with the pack tonight, so I'll be back tomorrow. How are you feeling? Is everything okay? Do you need me to send the pack healer to check on you?"She always responded instantly, but tonight the mindlink was nothing but dead silence.I waited a few minutes, and still nothing came back. She was probably just asleep, I told myself, so I didn't push it any further.I sank into a chair and worked through some pack business messages, then scrolled through my phone without really paying attention.That's when a few proposal videos popped up on my feed. Aria's friends had shared them, and I squinted at the screen before clicking
