The Lycan King's Luna Healer のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 61 - チャプター 70

Emily’s POV I spotted Sarah from afar, and I could tell she was heading straight toward us.“Her name is Sarah,” I said. “I don’t know much about her…but I know that she's close to the king”I waited for Piper’s response, but none came. So, I glanced to my side.She was gone.“Where did she go?” I asked the empty air, since there was no one else here.“Piper? I called out. “Where are you? Are you hiding?”No answer. I sighed. Sarah’s aura must have truly terrified the poor girl.I couldn’t deny that Sarah carried a strange, commanding presence. I’d noticed it the first day I met her, but I’d never figured out whether it was good or… something else entirely. I hadn’t even asked Malric or anyone who she really was.She must definitely be something.“I was told I would find you here,” Sarah said, stepping closer. Her voice was calm but edged with a sharpness that made my chest tighten. “I need to talk to you.”I raised an eyebrow, wondering what she wanted this time. But as she drew nea

Malric’s POV I wasn’t blind to Emily’s subtle change. She didn’t make it dramatic like last time when she’d searched for flimsy excuses to escape me, but I knew something was off.I rolled out of bed, prepared for morning training, and made my way to her door.I knocked.No reply. I could feel she was awake. Was she ignoring me on purpose?I knocked again. “I know you’re awake, little fire. Open the door,” I said, voice calm but firm.Minutes later, she opened the door. The gloom on her face was undeniable.“Emily, what’s wrong?” I asked.She shook her head, exhaling. “I had a very stressful day yesterday… and I woke up feeling unwell this morning.”“Oh,” I frowned, placing my hand gently on her neck. Her temperature wasn’t alarming. Still, something wasn’t right. I held her hand. “Let’s go see Robert.”“No, please,” she said, hesitating. “I just need rest… I'd like to skip training today.”I blinked, studying her as I leaned against the door frame. “Okay. I’ll ask Edmund not to le

Emily’s POV Since Malric wouldn't allow me to do anything today again, I went to the place Lucien took me to yesterday to unwind and refresh my soul.I’d seen him and told him I would come here again. I liked the fact that there was no disturbance and I could think properly.“Emily,” I heard Piper’s voice.I turned, and she rushed to me, sitting across from me.I'd told her to come and meet me here when I saw her this morning.“Your hands are peeling?” I said, noticing her pale hands. “You’ve been washing?”She gave a small, pretty smile, trying to look unconcerned. “I’ve done more of this where I came from.”Still, I wasn’t okay with that. She was far too young to be doing such strenuous tasks. If helping her reduce the burden meant talking to Malric, I would do it, not because I knew I had favour in his eyes, but because I couldn’t ignore this child.Then, I remembered midnight, the feeling of someone entering my room.“Piper, did you come to my room last night?” I asked, even thou

Emily’s POV My whole emotions just took a new turn as everything I thought I knew twisted into something far more painful than I had imagined.I had misjudged Sarah, Theodore, and even Sharina this whole time. I convinced myself they never liked me, that their actions were rooted in dislike or indifference. But now, seeing things from another angle, I understand them more. Their choices weren’t about me. They were about love. Protection. Fear. And if I’m being honest with myself, I would have done the same thing for someone I love.Still, one thing that I still needed clarity on was: Why did the goddess give me a second-chance mate only to break me all over again? Why give me a blessing and then attach double curses to it? The wise ones believed she knew what she was doing, but if you asked me, I don’t think she knows what she’s doing right now. Playing games with my life.Sarah had said maybe it was because of my sins, but I knew that wasn’t true. I’ve never done anything wrong for

Emily’s POV “Emily, talk to me, please.” His voice was rough, heavy with something I couldn’t name. “You’re not doing this to me… to us.”I gathered the sheets around me, and stepped out of the bed.“I’m sorry, Malric. It has to end this way. I can’t let you make wrong decisions because of our bond.”He tried to cross the room toward me, but I stepped back instinctively. “Don’t.”His storm-grey eyes searched mine, desperate, pleading.“I'm sorry Malric, I've made up my mind.” I swallowed and raised my hand, trembling yet firm. His jaw tightened, his hands clenched at his sides. For a moment, I thought he might move, but he didn’t. And in that frozen, excruciating second, I realized just how much this would hurt him, and yet, how much I had to protect him.“I… I, Emily Harpar…” My voice cracked. “…reject you, Malric Stone, as my mate.”Silence swallowed the room. Unlike with Adrian, there was no furious outburst, no trembling rage. I almost thought… maybe we weren’t truly mates.The
