Luna To The Blood Cursed Alpha のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 21 - チャプター 30

AMRETH’S POV I hated attending council meetings because of how suffocating the atmosphere felt. The elders sat at their usual positions with a composed look on their faces as they discussed the matters of the pack. I, on the other hand, was not listening to a word they said.I tried to focus, but something was eating away at my mind.My attention drifted away, their voices becoming nothing but background noise. My thoughts kept circling back to the same thing over and over again. The image of what happened a few days ago was etched in my mind, replaying in my head like a broken record.My jaw flexed slightly as the grip on the armrest tightened. I couldn’t stop thinking about the fact that Lea tried to poison me. There was an ample amount of evidence, and yet something didn’t sit right with me. A part of me didn’t think that she would try to kill me.My mind drifted to Lea in the cell. I imagined her seated on the damp, cold floor without a bed to sleep on. Was she doing okay?The qu

AMRETH’S POV I could feel my consciousness slowly returning to me. It came slowly, like I was being pulled through a thick haze that clung to every part of my mind. I could feel my muscles, and they felt heavy, as if I had done some strenuous work.I immediately tested something on my tongue. It was bitter and metallic, and it coated my taste buds, settling all the way to the back of my throat. My lips parted slightly, and a wheeze escaped through it. Then, a hot sensation flooded every nerve in my body.It was my wolf. Sven was stirring inside of me. He hadn’t called down at all. A gasp escaped my lips as my entire body jerked against the bed. My fingers curled into the sheets, gripping them tightly as another wave of tension washed over me.My muscles locked, then relaxed, before locking again.A growl escaped my lips as I threw my head back, the nerves standing visible against my neck. I gritted my teeth, but that didn’t stop the foam that was gathering at the corner of my mouth.

LEA’S POV Rowan moved his face closer to mine, but I gasped and pulled away.“Um, I should go,” I blurted out.I stood up from the bed abruptly, his fingers slipping from my cheeks. My heart was racing in a way that felt unfamiliar to me.“I–uh,” I mumbled. “It's getting late.’Rowan blinked, his hands falling back to his side. “Lea, wait–““I’ll see you tomorrow,” I cut in.I didn’t wait for a response and walked out of the room, slamming the door shut behind me. My steps were quick as I walked through the corridor, my heart and mind racing with thoughts of what had just happened.He wanted to kiss me, but I almost kissed Rowan.I shook those thoughts away and marched down the hallway, eager to get back to my quarters. “I wonder where you’re coming from.”The cold voice made me stop dead in my tracks. I turned slowly, and saw Elira standing a few steps ahead of me, arms crossed with an icy look ok her face. Two other maids stood beside her, their eyes filled with contempt.My stoma

LEA’S POV I sat in the servant’s hall, staring at the plate in front of me. The atmosphere was filled with the sound of dishes clattering together and the low murmurs of the maids having conversations with each other.I, on the other hand, couldn’t believe what I was looking at.There was food on my plate, actual food.It wasn’t an empty place, but it was filled to the brim with food. I sat there, the food untouched, like I was expecting it to disappear if I reached out for it. It took me a while to pick up my spoon and reach for the plate.I dipped the spoon into my plate, scooping a small portion before bringing it to my lips, savouring the taste of it on my tongue. The taste was okay, enough to make me enjoy my meal, but today, I didn’t have an appetite.I found myself picking at the food instead, pushing it around the plate as my thoughts drifted elsewhere, back to the previous night. My memory was more vivid than I wanted it to be. The moment played in my head more than I wanted

LEA’S POV My stomach began to churn as they stepped closer to me. I took a step back, my body now pressing against the wall.“What do you want, Elira?” I asked, forcing my voice to stay steady.She didn’t answer immediately. Instead, she just stared at me with dead eyes. Her eyes moved over my clothes and hair, as if hoping the mess from earlier was still clinging to me. “What do I want?” She repeated. “I want you dead,” she hissed.The words send goosebumps running all over my skin.“You think you’ve won, don’t you?” she continued, taking a step closer to me. “You think you’ve won just because you have Rowan wrapped around that scrawny finger of yours, right?”“What are you even talking about? I didn’t–““You did! You stole him away from me!”Her voice was sharp, cutting through mine and the air around us. There was something sharp in her voice, and it sounded like it was filled with venom.“You took him away from me,” she snapped, eyes flashing widely. “He was supposed to be mine!
