Lahat ng Kabanata ng Luna's Resolve, Alpha's Eternal Regret: Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 9

I walked back to my room. Half an hour later, Lucien arrived—freshly showered and dressed in a sharp black suit.He remained tall, commanding. His jacket was perfectly tailored, yet it highlighted a cold, aristocratic air. So much so that he still seemed like the restrained gentleman I had once fallen for."Where have you been?" Lucien asked urgently. "The warriors told me you never went to patrol the pack borders. You didn’t answer my calls, and you shut me out of our mindlink."I didn’t answer him, only turned to step away.Then he noticed my pale face, gently touching my cheek as his voice grew even more anxious. “What really happened? Why do you look so terrible?”I hid the miscarriage papers and told him it was nothing, just a chill.He leaned in to kiss my cheek. I turned away subtly and asked why he had come."Silly," he said, tapping the tip of my nose with playful affection. "Tomorrow marks five years since our bonding. I want to throw you an anniversary celebration."I told h

My heart clenched. I knew I couldn’t reveal anything to him then. Otherwise, given his influence within the Werewolf Alliance Council, he could easily intercept my forced divorce petition."It’s nothing, just a friend," I said, placing my warm, soft palm on his forearm, my tone earnest. "Her Mate betrayed her, so she’s decided to take action. Luc, if you ever betray me one day, I’ll do the same."Lucien was momentarily stunned. But clearly, the warmth of my palm made him overlook the implications of my words. It also made him ignore the threat carried by that term.Besides, he was a suspicious ruler, and I was sure he quickly grasped a crucial point of logic—if I truly suspected his betrayal, I wouldn’t openly discuss it with him; I would proceed in secret.I saw him relax slightly, but soon, his brow furrowed with displeasure. "I’ve told you before, don’t spend too much time with those so-called pioneering she-wolves. They’re always too radical in their actions."He seemed to have for

"Gaia, are you alright? I was looking for you all last night, but you had locked your door," Lucien asked softly from outside.I did not answer him. At that moment, I only wanted to leave.Lucien paused at the door for a moment, then asked with concern, "Are you angry with me? Because I didn't come back to you immediately after seeing Irina to her room?"He still thought me a fool.Because after I lost my wolf, all my sensory abilities—my sight, hearing, and smell—had degraded, just like an ordinary human's. He believed I couldn't hear anything from the second floor, any sounds of them making love.I covered my face with my hands, rubbing my eyes, wiping away the last trace of tears.My Mate, Lucien, had died the very second we marked each other. The person standing outside my door now, I did not know him.He was not worth my tears.I went to the bathroom and washed my face, making myself appear calm and composed.Lucien was still waiting outside. He apologized sincerely, "I promised y

Lucien picked up the miscarriage papers, staring at the words in utter disbelief. In that moment, he finally understood everything.So, while he and Irina were lost in their passion, I was lying alone on a cold operating table, allowing cold instruments to enter my weakened body, removing our child.It was our only child, possibly the only pup I could ever have in this lifetime.But he had killed it. He hadn't even seen its face.Lucien completely broke down. He collapsed onto the floor, clutching the papers tightly in his hand, his eyes turning crimson.The guests had all returned to the banquet hall, and only a few of Lucien's close friends remained in the room when Irina finally dared to approach. She linked her arm with his and sat beside him. "What outrageous thing has Luna said now? You mustn't take it to heart. I'm sure she didn't mean it..."As she spoke, her gaze fell upon the miscarriage papers. In an instant, her words froze. All the clever, varied ways she usually had to sl

"In the days to come, you will be blissfully happy—I am certain of it, Gaia."Helena's words were so firm. I was sure an ancient Grand Sorceress never lied.But was my heart truly ready for new love? I wasn't sure.I only knew that my career was the most important thing to me at that moment. So, I soon arranged a meeting with one of the nation's most revered medical research doctors.Three days later, as I sat at the head of the conference table during a seminar focused on my work, I overheard the hushed whispers of several doctors. "That Alpha from the Gilded Moon is quite lucky. Just as he lost his wolf due to the heavy blows to his career and love life, a life-saving potion emerges."Lucien had lost his wolf? How did that happen?During a break, I listened more carefully. From their conversation, I learned that Lucien's betrayal of me had caused his wolf, Clovis, great dissatisfaction. Clovis had voluntarily withdrawn his powerful wolf essence, falling into a permanent slumber.A fe
