All Chapters of He Made His Luna My Executioner: Chapter 1 - Chapter 9

The blood worms had already devoured my wolf spirit.A werewolf’s natural healing ability no longer worked on me.Kael’s frown deepened.“Ten years, Eileen. Aren’t you tired of pretending to be weak?”I did not tell him I was not pretending.The blood worm curse was about to kill me.Even if I told him, he would not believe me.He would only think it was another trick to gain his attention.My body trembled as cold sweat soaked my back.Before I lost consciousness, I thought I saw Kael’s expression change.He caught me before I hit the floor, panic flashing through his eyes.Then his jaw tightened.“Stop pretending, Eileen.”“Or I’ll lock you in the silver cage again.”But I had no time left.In two days, I would be dead.When I woke again, my wounds had been bandaged.I was not back in the abandoned dungeon.I was lying in Kael’s room.The stronghold had once belonged to my father.When my brother and I were children, he would sit with us beside the fireplace and teach us the history

“The seer said I was born to become a Luna.”“But your brother didn’t love me.”“And Kael was in love with you.”“So I had my father arrange an attack, kill Kael’s parents, and plant evidence that pointed to your father.”She spoke as if the dead were nothing more than stepping stones on her path to becoming Luna.“Once Kael lost his parents, he would naturally hate the Moonshadow Pack.”“Then my father opened the gates for him and helped him conquer your home. That made my family the Black Pack’s greatest ally.”Ten years of hatred between two packs had begun because of her ambition.“Do you regret it?” Selena asked. “Swallowing those blood worms to save Kael?”“I watched you carry him out of the Mistwood Forest.”“I watched you swallow the blood worms in exchange for the medicine that saved his life.”“But when Kael woke up, I was the first person he saw.”If I had learned the truth ten years ago, it might have destroyed me.But I was already dying.None of it mattered anymore.Selen

Kael’s POVAfter Eileen closed her eyes, her body began to grow cold in my arms.I held her and, for the first time, had no idea what to do.Over the past ten years, she had bled countless times and lost consciousness more times than I could remember. Each time, I had the healers bandage her wounds and force a bowl of medicine down her throat. In the end, she always woke up.This time would be no different.I told myself she was pretending again. She was only trying to frighten me.She had always been afraid of pain. When we were children, she would cry in my arms over a scraped knee. How could someone like her truly choose to die?“Eileen.”I patted her cold cheek, but she did not open her eyes.“Stop pretending.”She still did not respond.Blood continued to run from the corner of her mouth, staining my hands and soaking through the front of her dress.I finally lost control and roared,“Where are the healers? Bring every healer here now!”The door flew open.Several healers rushed i

Kael’s POVI looked at Selena and thought of Eileen.Eileen had loved me too.But she had swallowed blood worms to save my life.Selena’s version of love had killed my parents, started a war between two packs, and destroyed Eileen’s life.And I had believed her for ten years.“You do not love me.”My voice was cold.“You only wanted to become Luna.”The last of Selena’s mask finally broke.She stared at me and laughed wildly.“So what if I lied to you?”“You were the one who killed Eileen’s family. You locked her in a silver cage, forced medicine down her throat, and made her kneel before everyone.”“Even if you punish me now, even if you kill me, Eileen will never forgive you.”“Enough.”I ordered the guards to take her away.Her father would stand trial under pack law for murder, betrayal, and starting the war.Selena was stripped of her title as Luna and banished from the Black Pack forever.After the guards left, I picked up the moonstone bracelet from the table.“This belongs to y
