All Chapters of Return of the Moon Weaver: Chapter 41 - Chapter 50

Abbie bit her lip, glancing at Lucian with a practiced, fragile gaze."Today is about my comeback," she told the sea of flashing cameras, her voice soft but carrying a calculated weight. "I'd prefer to keep my private life just that—private. If there's ever good news to share, you'll be the first to know."Her words were a classic dodge, refusing to deny the rumors while leaving just enough space for the media to feast on the implication.Across town at the Soul-Forge, Nadia watched the live stream on her laptop.Lucian stood there in his sharp suit, a stoic mountain of Alpha authority, while Abbie leaned into him, her designer gown fluttering. Nadia took a shaky breath and slammed the laptop shut, the screen's glow vanishing like her remaining hope.The office door creaked open.Kaleb stepped in, his eyes burning with protective rage."Nadia, what the hell is he playing at? Standing there with her in front of the cameras... He's practically announcing she's his Luna."Nadia looked d

The following morning, Nadia returned to the Gray Pine Pack. Standing before the gates, she took a deep breath before stepping inside.In the garden, she ran into Sofia."Are you really going through with it?" Sofia asked, blocking her path. "Severing the bond?""Yes," Nadia replied flatly."Why? Lucian was willing to stay for the sake of the alliance. Now Alpha Reid is pushing for the divorce—that was your doing, wasn't it?" Sofia narrowed her eyes. "Mom is furious. I'm only telling you this because I don't want to deal with her bad mood."Nadia ignored her and walked into the house, only to be greeted by a flying teacup that shattered at her feet."What are you thinking?!" Jenna screamed, pointing a trembling finger at her. "We need the Silverstone Pack! Our influence is waning. We need that alliance!""Alpha Reid promised the alliance wouldn't change," Nadia countered."The alliance only holds as long as you are Lucian's mate!" Colin added sternly. "Go back to Alpha Reid. Tell him

"Are you sure?" Ryan slurred, his eyes glazed with a drug-induced haze. "I've already taken the pill. I can't wait.""I won't fight," she said, keeping her voice steady. "Just don't hurt me."As Ryan turned to grab a glass of water, Nadia bolted for the door.But he was faster than he looked, catching her arm and slamming her back. "You bitch! You lied to me!"He raised his hand to strike her, but Nadia moved with the precision of a trained healer who knew every pressure point.She caught his hand, twisting his fingers back until they nearly snapped at a ninety-degree angle.Ryan howled in agony."Tell me, Ryan," she hissed, her eyes glowing with a lethal chill. "Did Abbie send you?""Yes! Yes, she did! Just let go of me!"Nadia didn't let go.Instead, she delivered a brutal kick to his groin, and before he could even scream, she pulled a sedative needle from her pocket and jammed it into his neck.Within seconds, he collapsed into a heap on the floor—conscious, but paralyzed.Nadia l

"I thought we were going home," Nadia said, surprised."I said we were going out, didn't I?" He didn't wait for her to argue and stepped on the gas.The silence in the car grew heavy.At the dinner table, Lucian looked at her."Why so quiet?""I thought you liked silence when you eat," Nadia replied softly. "That's how it is at home."Lucian glanced at her, his brow furrowed. "You've been distracted lately. Did anything happen?""Nothing. Just work."He didn't look convinced. "Is your relationship with your family always that... tense?"Nadia gave a faint smile. "Yeah. But my grandfather, Tyrell—he was different. He actually cared." A brief, genuine smile touched her lips as she thought of him.Lucian watched her expression, a strange, unidentifiable emotion stirring in his chest.In that moment, he realized he hadn't known her at all.When they finally returned to the villa, Lucian disappeared into his study while Nadia went to their bedroom.She needed to choose a gift for Reid—he l

Lucian remained silent, his gaze fixed on the floor.The hesitation in his eyes was the final blow to Nadia's heart."Nadia, I believe you," Carlie said, stepping forward to break the suffocating tension."Tell me exactly what happened."Nadia didn't look at Carlie. Her eyes were locked on her mate, watching the last flicker of hope die out."Lucian, believe it or not, Abbie pushed me. You can choose to stand by her—I know my word doesn't mean much to you anyway."She turned to Carlie, her voice trembling but resolute."I'm going back to the villa. Please, don't worry about me.""Lucian, go with her," Carlie commanded."No," Nadia snapped before he made a move. "I'll drive myself." She walked out without a second glance, leaving Lucian standing in the middle of the room, his jaw tight and his brow furrowed in a dark, brooding silence.As she drove away from Reid's villa, Nadia felt a hollow ache in her chest. She had always known it, but seeing it play out like this, after nearly drow
