The Luna He Left To Burn のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 1 - チャプター 5

AVA”I am really sorry. The insemination did not work again."The doctor's voice sounded far away like she was talking to me from a different room as I stared at the paper in her hand without being able to understand what it said.Failed? Again?I did not even remember how many times I had heard that word before but it kept happening for seven long years repeating itself until it did not even feel like a warning. Just something that always happened.I had been married to Lucas Dan, the leader of the Nightfall Pack for seven years and I still had not given him a baby.A Luna who cannot have a baby is often looked down on, perhaps seen as a curse too. In the pack, a Luna's worth was tied to the strength of the bloodline she carried, and whispers had already begun to spread among the elders.I tried everything I could think of and everything others suggested.
