Semua Bab THE REJECTED LUCA’S REVENGE : Bab 1 - Bab 8

The moon was too bright tonight.It hung high above the pack house, large and pale against the dark sky, covering the stone courtyard in silver light. Torches burned along the walls, their flames moving gently in the cold night air, while 300 wolves stood around the courtyard, waiting for the mate ceremony to begin.Luca stood near the edge of the crowd with his hands behind his back, trying hard to hide the fact that his fingers would not stop shaking.“Stop shaking,” Mira whispered beside him.Luca quickly moved his hands into his pockets and looked at her.“I’m not shaking.”Mira glanced at his pockets.“You are.”“I’m fine.”“You’ve said that three times.”Luca gave her a nervous smile, but his eyes had already moved across the courtyard.They found Amara.She was standing among the other members of the pack, only a short distance from the center of the courtyard, and for a moment Luca forgot about the hundreds of people around him.He had been looking at her for seven years.Seve

Luca followed Elias deeper into the forest.He did not know where they were going, and Elias had given him no reason to believe that he should trust him. Still, Luca kept walking because there was nothing behind him except the pack that had rejected him, and there was something ahead of him that might finally explain why his entire life had felt wrong.The trees grew taller as they moved.Their branches reached across the path and blocked most of the moonlight, leaving only thin silver lines on the ground. The air was colder here, and the silence was so deep that Luca could hear the soft sound of his own footsteps.Elias walked several steps ahead of him.His movements were calm.Almost too calm.Luca watched him for a while before finally speaking.“You knew.”Elias did not stop.“Knew what?”“You knew what I was before you came to me.”Elias continued walking.Luca’s jaw tightened.“You knew I was a Moonblood.”After a few seconds, Elias stopped.He turned slowly.“I suspected.”“Th

Three years had passed since Luca walked through the gates of Silver Moon with nothing but a broken heart and blood on his hands.Three years since the pack had watched him leave.Three years since he had believed that he would never see those walls again.But the forest remembered.The tall trees still stood around the territory, their branches moving gently beneath the evening wind. The same stone walls surrounded the pack, rising high enough to disappear into the darkness above. Torches burned along the walls, their flames flickering against the cold night.Inside the gates, the pack was settling down for the evening.Wolves moved through the courtyard.Children ran between the houses.Warriors returned from patrol.Everything looked peaceful.Then the guards heard something.At first, it was so faint that they almost ignored it.A distant sound.Thud.The older guard lifted his head.Thud.He turned toward the forest.“What is that?”The younger guard stopped beside him.“I don’t

By sunrise, the story had already spread through Silver Moon.No one needed to tell the pack what had happened.They had all seen it.Alpha Richard had knelt before Luca.The same Luca he had banished three years ago.The same Luca he had once considered too weak to remain in Silver Moon.But the humiliation of the previous night was only the beginning.Luca wanted Richard to remember something.He wanted the entire pack to remember it too.So, before the morning council began, Luca walked into the central courtyard.The courtyard was already crowded.Elders stood near the council hall.Warriors gathered around the training grounds.Families watched from the edges.Richard arrived a few minutes later.His face was calm, but the whispers around him made it obvious that the previous night’s humiliation had not been forgotten.Luca stood at the center of the courtyard.He looked at Richard.“Alpha Richard.”Richard stopped.“Yes?”“Come here.”The command was simple.But everyone heard i
