Lahat ng Kabanata ng Luna To The Blood Cursed Alpha: Kabanata 61 - Kabanata 70

LEA’S POV The corridor stretched out before me, its polished marble surface reflecting the sunlight that filtered through the tall windows. The corridors were quiet today, given the fact that I had been assigned the task of cleaning every single corridor on the lower floors. I preferred the silence; it gave me enough room to think, even if that was the last thing I should have been doing.A bucket of water filled with soap was beside me, a cloth in my hand, and I dragged it across the floor in strokes, back and forth, a repetitive motion I used to scrub off the dirt. I kept moving mechanically, my mind unable to think about anything but what I had seen in the forest yesterday.My grip tightened around the cloth, my movements slowing just for a split second before I picked up the momentum. The image replayed in my mind over and over again, whether I wanted it to or not. The image of Mirabeth standing too close to that Alpha, her expression soft, her cheeks flushed, and the way she lau

LEA’S POV The thought refused to leave my mind throughout the entire day. No matter how many times I tried to erase it from my mind, no matter how many times I told myself that it was too dangerous and too reckless, my mind kept coming back to the same conclusion.I couldn’t just tell Amreth anything without having concrete proof.The realisation had settled immediately after I watched Amreth walk down the corridor, so unaware of what was happening right under his nose. At first, the idea of telling him came with a sense of urgency, but now that I had thought about it, I came to understand how risky that would be.If it came down to it, who would Amreth believe? His Luna, or a nameless servant? That answer was as clear as day, and that alone made my chest tighten painfully. If I spoke a word about this without solid evidence, I would be punished severely, and I knew for a fact that Mirabeth would make sure I regretted it.The thought made me swallow hard, my hands curling into the cl

LEA’S POV I couldn’t recall how I got back into the pack house. All I could remember was the way my lungs burned as I scampered away from Amreth as fast as possible. My heart threatened to tear out of my chest due to the weight of everything crashing down on me.I ran through the dimly lit, quiet corridors, all the way to the storage room I now slept in. I pushed the door open, and it creaked against its hinges before I slipped inside quickly, shutting it behind me as if I thought someone would follow me inside.The room was small and cramped, filled with nothing but old crates and supplies that were yet to be used. The scent of dust was thick in the air, but it was something I was used to. I didn’t bother lighting the candles. The light from the moon, cascading into the small room, was enough for me.I crossed the room in hurried steps and dropped onto the thin mattress I had arranged at the corner. My body sank into it as the exhaustion from running nonstop finally hit me. But the

LEA’S POV The fear that had been etched inside of me didn’t leave all at once. It fades away slowly, Luke, a storm that had stopped, but it left the sky still heavy and thick. The first two days after that night were hell. I would flinch at the slightest sound, at shadows, and even at the smallest movements. I barely slept because my entire body was on edge. My mind wouldn’t stop replaying the words I had heard in that unfinished building.Days had passed now, and nothing had happened. No one had come for me or questioned me as I had expected.Little by little, the tight grip of panic around my chest slowly loosened, making me feel calmer by each passing day. They hadn’t seen me or known that I had heard their conversation. Which meant I was safe at least for now.That was enough to comfort me, but the fear within me had morphed into something else. A question that was rooted in the back of my mind for days.What was I supposed to do with this sensitive information I knew?I stood by

LEA’S POV The sound of my name made me come to a halt. I didn’t need to turn to know who it was because I recognized his voice. It was Rowan. My chest twisted painfully as I stood there, my back still facing him and my fingers gripping the basket a little harder now.“Lea, I haven’t seen you in a while,” he said, his footsteps echoing behind me. “I know you’re avoiding me.”He sounded hurt, but he was right; I was avoiding him. Every moment I saw him, I would turn away into another corridor, not because I wanted to, but because it was something I had to do. I was being shunned in the pack; people were whispering about me, rumours were flying.The last thing I wanted was to drag him into all of this and make him the centre of ridicule along with me. I gritted my teeth, and I didn’t answer him. I just started walking again. My pace increased as I made my way to the washing area, but I could hear his footsteps following closely behind me.I clenched my jaw, trying to ignore it, trying t
