All Chapters of The Luna Is Not Dead: Chapter 21 - Chapter 30

AlaricI walked down the quiet hallway, my steps slow and completely unhurried. I spotted a waiter passing by, and smoothly stepped into his path and took a glass of wine from his tray."Excuse me," I said, keeping my tone casual. "Could you direct me to Elias's private bedroom? He asked me to check up on someone for him.""Oh. His Luna?" the waiter asked, looking eager to help.I gave a tight, polite nod. "Yes."The waiter was kind enough to give me the exact directions. Armed with the room number, I made my way down the corridor until I stood right outside the door. From inside, I could hear the muffled sound of sobbing that broke the silence.Perfect.I didn't bother knocking. It was all part of the plan. I turned the handle and pushed the door open.A young woman was sitting on the edge of the bed. She looked up at the sound of the door. Her face was pale, her eyes red and swollen from a long bout of crying. She didn't look happy at all."Oh, I'm sorry. Wrong room," I said smoothl

SeleneBut then, one of the older Lunas at the table spoke up, her voice thoughtful. "You know... I kind of believed her about the part where she said Selene wasn't a cheater. I remember Selene very well. She was always a good, responsible Luna. She really didn't seem like the type of person who would ever cheat."Elias let out a fake, heavy laugh, shaking his head. "Ah, but I knew her best. Trust me, I caught Selene red-handed myself. She was a cheater, plain and simple."Bang!Alaric slammed his hands down against the banquet table so hard the glasses rattled. Every single head snapped toward him in total shock."Enough," Alaric growled, his Alpha aura flaring just enough to make everyone uncomfortable. "Please, let's just forget about all this drama and enjoy the feast."Nobody wanted to argue with Alaric. Everyone quickly nodded, turned back to their plates, and started eating again. Within minutes, people were laughing, talking, and acting like nothing had even happened.Everyone

AlaricBefore I could sink any deeper into my anger, a soft knock came at the door.“It’s me, Alexa,” a voice called out from the other side.The heavy door creaked open, and Alexa walked in. I let out a long sigh of relief, my shoulders finally dropping. Quietly, I pulled the old photograph I had been hiding behind my back and placed it gently on the wooden desk.Alexa walked over and looked down at the picture. A soft smile touched her lips. “Look at us back when we were teenagers,” she murmured, her eyes warm. “We didn't care about anything in the world back then.”She looked up at me, her expression turning a bit more serious. “By the way, I heard you and the elders were having a meeting. What was that all about?”“It was about Selene,” I replied, rubbing the back of my neck.Alexa arched an eyebrow. “Well, what did you tell them? Did you tell them everything?”“Hell no, I didn't,” I said quickly. “The only people who know the truth for now are me, you, and my beta. I’m keeping it

28 SeleneI stood frozen, staring at them.My chest felt so empty as I watched him kissing her... this young girl whose name I didn't even know.When we had first met in the dining room earlier, she hadn't even bothered to introduce herself. In fact, she had looked right through me, treating me like some common servant. She had even ordered me to go fetch more dishes. I remembered telling her that I was close to the Alpha, which had only made her scoff and ask if I was some distant cousin. I hadn't graced her with an answer then, but now... now the pieces were starting to fall into place.Alaric suddenly reacted, shoving her off him with a force that sent her stumbling back.“What the fuck are you doing, Madison?” he roared, his voice trembling with a terrifying, raw anger.So... Madison was her name.I watched the rage changing Alaric's features. From the dark look on his face, it was obvious he was absolutely furious and irritated... but why should I care? It had nothing to do with

AlaricI rubbed my eyes and sighed, looking out the office window. I was starting to get really worried. I’d spent the last few hours looking for Selene, but I hadn’t seen her anywhere.I finally told my guards to keep an eye out for her, but I told them to keep it quiet. I didn't want the rest of the pack getting suspicious and starting gossip. I even asked a few of the servants around the house. Everyone here knew who Selene was, but they didn't know anything else, and they knew better than to ask me questions about her. Still, none of them had seen her today.Since staring at the walls wasn't helping, I decided to go to my office to get some work done. I sat at my desk, completely distracted, just staring at my phone.I let out a soft sigh, really regretting that I hadn't gotten her a phone yet. If I had, I wouldn't be sitting here wondering where she was.Trying to force my focus elsewhere, I reached for a stack of pack documents. I put on my reading glasses, opened my laptop, and
