All Chapters of LUNA: Chapter 31 - Chapter 40

ALEXANDERI looked at Chris with an expressionless face and replied, “I don’t intend to.”Chris nodded, then said, “Alpha Damon and your stepsister are having a private conversation indoors. They’ll be done after a while, and then you’ll hear his decision—whether he’ll keep you or let you go. But knowing your sister, he’ll do his best to send you away. He wouldn’t want you around to ruin her plans.”Curious, I asked, “What is my sister’s plan?”I didn’t know why, but I believed that if I warned Alpha Damon, he would listen to me—unlike the others.Chris must have seen through my thoughts, because he only gave me a knowing grin. Without another word, he leaped down and disappeared out of sight.After dinner, I was about to sleep when Alpha Damon finally came to my room. He stood there quietly for a long time without saying a word. I thought he might leave without speaking, but then he suddenly laughed, surprising me.He said, “I always thought I was deeply in love with your stepsister,

ALEXANDERI looked directly into his eyes and said, “My wish is for you to let me go.”His face darkened, and his eyelids drooped. I saw his fingers curl into a fist. I knew at that moment that he was angry—very angry—but I did not care. What mattered to me now was leaving the pack house as quickly as possible and finding another life worth living.He looked at me again. Those eyes had changed. They were now filled with swirling emotions and unspoken pain. Then, in a broken voice, he asked, “Why do you hate me so much?”I was tongue-tied, because I did not hate him. I simply did not have any feelings for him anymore.I replied calmly, “I do not hate you. I just hope we can part ways. I have this feeling that I will not be able to find myself if I stay here…”I lifted my gaze from my fingers and stared at his face. “Why won’t you let me go? In the future, if there is any request, just say it. I will do my best to fulfill it.”He looked stunned by my words, but then he suddenly smiled.

ALEXANDEROne sunny afternoon, after days of not seeing either Alpha Damon or Chris, Alpha Damon suddenly appeared in my room.He looked at me and asked in a voice so calm it unsettled me, “Do you want to leave the pack with my uncle?”My heart raced, and anxiety tightened my chest, but I forced myself to appear bold. Clutching the bedsheet tightly, I answered, “Yes, I want to leave with him.”Alpha Damon’s expression turned even colder, and he sneered. “Very well. I will honor your wish. You are going to leave the pack with him.”Without another word, he turned, walked to the door, opened it, and left.At dusk, Christina came to my room. Her face was lined with sadness as she said, “Everyone in the pack is waiting for you.”My heart jolted. I couldn’t tell whether I felt happiness or sorrow. Lowering my gaze, I rose to my feet and followed her outside.As we walked, she kept muttering, “Remember your promise, My Lady. You must not let Alpha Damon sever the bond between you two, or it

ALEXANDERI pursed my lips as my thoughts wandered. Eventually, I decided to sleep—maybe when I woke up, I would finally be free of the weight pressing so heavily on my chest.But as I lay on my bed with my eyes tightly shut, my mind kept drifting back to Alpha Damon. I tossed and turned restlessly, unable to sleep. Finally, I sat up and sank into deep thought.With my head lowered, I stared at my toes for a long moment before quietly rising to my feet and walking toward the door.Barefoot, I opened it carefully. I knew it was already midnight. The palace was silent, but what shocked me most was that the guards stationed outside my room were gone. The long passageway stretched before me, empty, and the eerie silence sent a chill through me.I stepped out of the palace and looked toward the main palace, where Alpha Damon was supposed to be lying unconscious—perhaps still in a coma. Guilt tightened painfully in my chest. I knew I would never be able to move past it unless I saw for myse

ALEXANDERI shook my head. Going back would mean I had ruined all his efforts.“You seem to be lost in deep thought. Where did you learn the art of philosophizing?”That voice, that casual remark—my eyes brightened at once. I lifted my head and looked at him with a smile.Chris sat on a tree branch, his legs dangling as he chewed effortlessly on an apple.“I was very worried about you. I never knew you had been watching me all along,” I complained with a pout.He looked at me and shook his head, admonishing me in a soft voice. “Your awareness is too shallow. If you continue living like this, I’m afraid you might die without ever knowing what killed you.”I wasn’t offended at all. I knew my intuition wasn’t very good.I watched as Chris jumped down from the tree branch. When he landed lightly on the ground, he said, “Come with me. We’re heading north.”I followed him, and as we walked, he introduced me to the world outside the house. Unlike the pack house, our kind who lived in modern s
