The Noble Luna Queen のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 10

Aria was dressed in a custom designer gown she’d bought from Neutral District. The expensive, specially blended perfume she wore filled the air, and everything about her radiated the effortless superiority of a high-ranking family.As for me, I had spent the last twenty-four hours trying to save several frontline warriors who had been gravely injured. I hadn’t slept at all. My clothes still carried the stubborn smell of blood and medicinal herbs that no amount of washing could fully remove.“No need,” I said before swallowing the piece of raw meat in my mouth, then picking up a wild berry and eating it slowly.Just then, Derek suddenly slammed a heavy leather pouch down onto the table in front of me. The mouth of the bag fell open, revealing more than a dozen high-grade moonstones inside, their cold glow catching the light.“Take it,” he said, looking down at me from above, his tone condescending. “Consider it payment for the years you spent serving me. Go and get yourself some dec

Derek grabbed the werewolf and flung him to the ground like a piece of trash, his face dark with fury.“By the authority of the Gamma Commander! The Red Moon pack’s Full Moon banquet is not some den for a pack of horny rogues!” he barked.The werewolf’s ribs were broken. He lay there groaning in pain, too afraid to utter a single complaint, but he shot me a vicious glare.I glanced at Derek. The possessiveness buried deep in that wolf’s instincts was truly pathetic.Aria took a deep breath, then deliberately raised her voice so everyone could hear.“Forget about her! I just received a mind link from one of the guards,” she announced loudly. “The Supreme Ruler of the Werewolf Alliance—the pureblood half-wolf himself—is upstairs holding a meeting with the Council of Elders! Maybe we’ll get lucky tonight and catch a glimpse of the pureblood royal line!”The entire hall erupted with excited murmurs spreading through the crowd. Some of them were so thrilled that their tails shot strai

Maybe the old me would have felt a trace of sympathy for him, pulled by the bond that once tied us together. However, he had just said it himself that what was in the past should stay in the past.Now I had a true mate of my own. I had a pup. I had the Royal Palace, where I could freely practice the healing techniques I had always dreamed of mastering. I also had a territory blessed by the Moon Goddess—something I had given everything for in my last life and still never obtained. It was clear that since I left him, I’d been living a much more decent life. The Full Moon banquet had originally been organized entirely by Aria, but the moment my identity was revealed, the atmosphere in the room shifted instantly. Every werewolf present began looking at me with extreme reverence when, just minutes earlier, they had been wagging their tails around Aria like obedient dogs. Now they looked as if they wanted to drop to the ground and lick the tips of my feet. Oh, how it all changed in the

Just a month later, everything changed.Aria’s father, the Beta elder who controlled the herb distribution in Neutral District, was caught by the Alliance Tribunal. He had been hoarding high-grade supplies, feeding seriously injured warriors with cheap, toxic scraps, falsifying records, and bribing guards. He was punished for multiple crimes and nailed to the Pillar of Shame.When I heard the news, I was in the quiet chamber studying a rare Moonlight Herb. The gossip only made me feel a rush of satisfaction.Aria, who had once been untouchable and reeking in expensive perfume, knelt before the Tribunal like a puddle of mud. Not only were all her lands and resources confiscated, but the Alliance also stripped her of her pack rank entirely! Stripped of her noble facade, she was exiled to the borderlands, reduced to a lone, wandering werewolf scorned by all.Her scheming and greedy father, on the other hand, was thrown into the icy prison in the Far North. There was no hope of escape

Yet, with Derek, it seemed even death wouldn’t stop him from trying to annoy me one last time.That day, he dragged his battered, broken body down the corridor outside the Royal Healing Center, clutching a tattered instrument made from low-tier beast bone, and knelt there shamelessly. In the wind, he strummed and sang that old song, the one he had played when his wolf spirit first awakened and used to court me, “Look into My Eyes, a Wolf’s Instinct Doesn’t Lie.”The rough, off-key melody floated through the air, and it stirred nothing in me. All it did was irritate me, like a fly buzzing in my face. What a cruel irony. In this second life, he had spent every day lying to his own wolf spirit.I called over the guards and ordered them to throw his pathetic mess out. He struggled desperately against them, lunging to grab at my robes, with tears and snot streaking down his face.“Selena! I really do regret it! I don’t want to die without a mate! I was blind; I was wrong! Please forgi
