All Chapters of THE LUNA HE NEVER WANTED: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

~VAELOR~I tore the letter open, unfolding it. But the Moment I read what was written on it, all hell broke loose.Alpha Vaelor,This is to notify you that a member of my pack was illegally taken from my pack. Whether this action was intentional or not remains to be known.I, Alpha Kael, the Alpha of Pure Moon pack demand the safe return of Vixen Puremoon, the rightful Luna of Pure moon pack.We know she is currently being held in your pack. If you refuse to return her, we would go on to enforce the law in this regard. I clenched my fists, crumpling the letter too.Who does he think he is? And what right does he have to challenge my authority?Pure Moon pack doesn’t measure up to Blackthorn pack in any way, and he was nothing but an ant I can easily squash.Holding tightly onto the letter, I shredded it into pieces, wishing so badly I was shredding the damned Alpha instead.How dare he call her by his surname and even call her his Luna?I threw the shredded letter into the fire, bare

~VIXEN~I waited till the whole mansion fell silent, making sure that no one was around before I came out of my room.I wanted to sneak out unnoticed.But when I neared the door, I heard the cars drive into the mansion.My heart jumped.Vaelor was back. That fast?I turned around, running back to my room.Without thinking, I removed my shoes, changed into casual clothes and fell on the bed.I could hear his footstep nearing my door.Why was he coming here?Does he know I want to escape?I jumped to the bed and quickly covered myself up, while pretending to be asleep.Just then, I heard him knock. I shut my eyes, listening to him knock.At first, I thought he was going to leave when I didn’t answer, but then, the door knob turned.I held my breath.He entered the room then. Even though I couldn’t see him, I could feel him lingering at the doorway.I focused on breathing, trying my best to make it seem natural.But he didn’t leave. Instead, he began walking closer to me.Every step he t

~VAELOR~She didn’t respond, even though I wished desperately that she would say something, anything to give me even the slightest flicker of hope.But her lips remained sealed.I laughed at myself for even hoping in the slightest. I looked at her closely, only then did I notice that her lips were trembling.I stepped forward again, gently gathering her into my arms. I stroked her hair gently, enjoying how the soft texture of it felt against my hand.“Vie… I don’t know what you heard, but it is all wrong.”“I didn’t hear anything.” She said immediately.I smiled. She didn’t know she just admitted it to me.“I know this is going to be a dangerous mission both for me and the pack…” I started carefully, watching her reaction.She looked up then, confirming my exact thoughts.She was indeed concerned for me. For a moment, I felt my heart swell up with excitement.I barely resisted the urge to lean forward and kiss her, but instead I held her cheeks between my palms, staring closely at her

~VIXEN~I knew something was wrong the moment I stepped into the hallway.The mansion felt… tense.Not loud. Not chaotic.But heavy.Like the air itself was waiting for something bad to happen.Two maids who were usually cheerful stopped talking the moment they saw me. One of them forced a smile. The other lowered her head quickly and walked away.I slowed my steps.Why were they acting like that?As I turned the corner, I heard whispers coming from the servants’ quarters.I didn’t mean to listen.But then I heard his name.“…the Council is already involved.”My heart stopped.I moved closer without thinking, my footsteps silent against the floor.“If they send investigators, they’ll search the entire territory,” one maid said nervously.“And if they find her?” another whispered.“They’ll accuse the Alpha of violating territorial law. He could lose his position.”Lose his position.Because of me.My hand tightened against the wall as the words sank in.“The Luna is furious,” the first

~VIXEN~I didn’t stop running until my legs began to shake.The forest stretched endlessly around me, branches clawing at my arms, roots catching at my feet, the cold morning air burning in my lungs. Each breath felt sharp. Each step heavier than the last.But I didn’t slow down.I couldn’t.If I stopped, I would think.And if I thought, I might turn back.The thought of him finding my empty room flashed in my mind.The letter on the table.The silence.The anger that would harden his eyes.My chest tightened painfully.“I’m sorry,” I whispered to the empty forest.But leaving was the only choice.The Council was already watching him.Kael had filed the complaint.If they searched the territory and found me there, Vaelor wouldn’t just be questioned.He could lose everything.His title.His authority.His pack’s trust.All because of me.I slowed to a walk as the trees thickened, my body finally protesting the hours of movement without rest.My feet hurt.My throat was dry.And the str
