Return of the Moon Weaver의 모든 챕터: 챕터 1 - 챕터 10

Nadia's POVLucian's pupils contracted sharply, slitting into vertical, beast-like slivers. As Alpha of the pack, he had absolute authority.We stood locked in a stare-down in the deathly quiet bedroom, the air thick with a pressure that made me want to flee.After what felt like an eternity, he finally spoke, as if he flew into a rage out of humiliation when I exposed the fluctuation in his pheromones. "Nadia, listen closely. It's not because I care. You pissed me off, understand? You'd better keep in mind that I'm still your Alpha! "In his eyes, his lowly "temporary mate" pointing out his change in mood at such an occasion was an insult to his authority.Fighting the wolf's instinct to submit, I replied in a cold tone. "Yes, I understand. But as a healer, I thought I needed to point that out."Lucian stared and studied my expression, his eyes flickering with something complex that I couldn't read.Perhaps it was because over this past year, as the pack's Luna, I had been too obedie

Nadia's POVI stared at Lucian, watching the terrifying rage flicker in his amber eyes. He was speechless, yet he wouldn't let go.At that moment, the sick, obsessive need for control that a high-ranking Alpha felt over his "objects" was on full display.I didn't want to engage in this pointless standoff any longer.Every second I stayed, the aggressive scent of cedar clinging to him eroded another shard of my sanity. I straightened my back, intending to brush past him and head upstairs, but the moment our shoulders crossed, a hand like an iron vise clamped around my wrist."Nadia, are you trying to tell me what to do?" His voice was low and dangerous, vibrating with the violence as if just been insulted.I didn't look back. Ignoring the crushing pain in my wrist. I answered coldly, "I just wish you'd stop with the double standards. Since you chose Abbie, then, I'm nobody to you anymore, and maybe you should let me free"."Is this all for him?" He jerked me in front of him so hard I n

Nadia's POV"Don't be silly. You always look pretty to me. You're still recovering, so don't overthink about it, OK?" Lucian's voice was incredibly gentle, carrying a deep, magnetic warmth and a sense of protection."Do you really mean that?" Abbie's soft, flirtatious voice drifted through the crack in the door, laced with the hopeful anticipation of someone who had survived a nightmare.He answered without a second of hesitation. "Of course. I'll marry you, once you get better. I'll throw the grandest ceremony possible, so everyone in the pack will witness you becoming my Luna"."Really?""Yes. Now, eat something. You need strength to restore your energy"."Lucian, you're so good to me..."I stood frozen outside the door. Those light, airy words felt like hammers smashing into my already shattered heart. A self-mocking smile touched my lips, my eyes reflecting an endless sorrow.I didn't mean to eavesdrop, and there was no point in rubbing salt into my own wounds. But rather than pus

Nadia's POV"But Nadia," She paused, "First things first. How many times have I told you? You are Lucian's mate. You are the Luna of the Silver Stone Pack. Act like it, and a Luna would never eavesdrop."I lowered my eyes, hiding the flash of contempt beneath my lashes. For a year, I had played the "perfect Luna" so convincingly that I'd almost forgotten my own primal nature. I gave a small, stiff nod. "I understand, Mom."Jenna's expression softened slightly. She smoothed her skirt and sat back down with practiced grace. "Now, come here and sit down."I did as she said, keeping my back perfectly straight. This was the only thing Jenna ever approved of me: to keep an elegant posture in any circumstance."What are you doing here at this hour? Isn't Lucian with you?" she asked, her tone casual, almost bored."Mom," I started, trying to steady my voice. "I have an announcement to make. Lucian and I are severing the mate bond."I looked up, my gaze as flat as stagnant water, clashing dire

Nadia's POVI raised my eyes, meeting his blade-sharp gaze with a calm expression. "Yes, I've told them already.""Why didn't you discuss this with me first?" His face darkened, brows knitting together as a complex storm of emotions, which even he didn't seem to recognize. It swirled in his amber eyes. His suffocating Alpha pressure began to flood the room again, heavy with warning.I didn't understand why he was reacting this strongly. Was it because a lowly Omega like me dared to take the lead, breaking the rhythm of his perfect control? Or was it because I had prematurely shredded the image of us being a nice couple?""I didn't think it was necessary." I stood as tall as I could, and though a wave of weakness flickered in my abdomen, my voice remained flawless. "We're going to the High Council on Monday to register the severance. Given that, isn't it only logical to inform my parents beforehand?""You're in a real hurry to leave me, aren't you?" Lucian took a sudden step forward, h
