Semua Bab The Return Of Broken Luna: Bab 11 - Bab 20

Marcus"If she's this stubborn over just a brief meeting, she must be deprived of pleasure," I muttered, adjusting my cuffs as the limousine pulled up in front of the grand banquet hall. "If her husband was giving it to her properly, why on earth would she hate me so much?"Liam burst out laughing from the seat across from me. "Or maybe, Marcus, she just doesn't like your face. Not every woman would fall at your feet.""She rejected meeting with an alpha, who hardly agrees to meeting privately," I said, taking in a deep breath the driver opened my door. "That isn't business. She's just being bitchy."We stepped out into the cool evening air, entering the property where the banquet hosted by Moonstone Consulting was taking place. The property was breathtaking with crystal chandeliers, velvet drapes, and the rich scent of wine and high-status wolves. Silver Moon’s elite gathered in groups, whispering about the mysterious company that had suddenly taken over the northern territories.I a

MarcusThe cool air of the hotel's luxury shopping center did nothing to clear my head. I walked past storefronts, barely listening to my secretary who was trailing two steps behind me with a tablet in hand. I had scheduled a quick meeting with the hotel's manager to finalize the security plan for the regional summit that was taking place in a few weeks time, but my mind was completely elsewhere.I couldn't stop thinking about that little boy. "Alpha, the manager is waiting in your private lounge," Sarah said, tapping her screen. "Should I tell him you'll be five minutes late?""Tell him to wait," I replied, my eyes scanning the quiet hallway.My wolf had been restless and agitated since last night. Everytime I closed my eyes, I saw Kai's face.His dark green eyes and the precise, arrogant way he carried himself. I couldn't help but wonder if he was truly five. My steps slowed as I suddenly realized something, Elena had left sick years ago. My secretary had seen Kai at the airport

ElenaThe narrow hallway suddenly felt suffocating. Marcus stood over me, his tall frame blocking what little light there was, his green eyes filled with desperation.Kai is my son, isn't he?The question hung between us. A dull ache spread through my chest, but I pressed my back against the cold marble wall and met his gaze with nothing but hatred."I don't owe you an answer," I said, keeping my voice steady. "You don't get to corner me in a hallway and demand an explanation for my life.""I already knew the truth, Elena!" Marcus said, taking a small step backward. His voice cracked with raw emotion, something I had never heard before. "The signs are so obvious, Elena. I just need you to fucking say it. Please.""Then why ask?" I spat, letting my lips curl into a bitter smile. "After all, you're quite the genius. Figuring out everything yourself. "Elena, I was blind." Marcus said, he reached out to touch my shoulders but stopped mid way. "The evidence back that, all those documents

ElenaThe wooden doors of the conference room slammed shut behind me, the sound echoed through the vast hallway. "Miss Silverwood! Please, wait!" Mr. Vance called out, jogging down the corridor to catch up with my brisk stride. "You are making a big mistake! A contract like that could position Moonstone as an untouchable force!"I'mI stopped abruptly, turning to face him. My hands were shaking inside my jacket pockets, but my voice remained completely firm. "That contract is like a leash, Mr. Vance," I said, holding his gaze. "And Moonstone is not for sale. Good day."Before he could offer another desperate plea, I turned on my heel and marched straight toward the elevators. I pushed through the glass doors of the tower, stepping out into the cool afternoon air, and immediately dialed Sophia’s private line."Elena?" Sophia picked up on the second ring. "How did the meeting go? Did they accept the expansion outline?""I walked out," I said, my voice tight as I motioned for a cab to s

ElenaThe silence of the cottage was supposed to make me feel at ease, but it only made me feel on edge. I sat at the wooden dining table, my laptop open in front of me, trying to review the revised logistics reports for Moonstone. Maya was upstairs putting away our clothes, while Kai sat on the living room rug, quietly playing a puzzle peace game. On the surface, everything might seem normal. Yet, my wolf kept pacing around inside my chest, her claws were just moments from being bored. 'We are being watched,' she whimpered. I closed my laptop with a soft sigh, rubbing the back of my neck. I couldn't concentrate. The feeling of someone staring at me intensely was growing by each pressing minute. "I'm stepping outside for five minutes, Kai," I called out, pushing my chair back.Kai didn't look up from his screen. "Be careful, Mom."I stepped out onto the porch, letting the cool afternoon air hit my face. The front yard was quiet, with the heavy oak trees swaying gently in the wind
