All Chapters of He Said His Adopted Sister Was "Just a Child": Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

I agreed so quickly that a flash of shock crossed Felix's eyes."Nova, you..."Before he could finish, Serena was already impatiently tugging at his shirt, pulling him toward the center of the altar.Felix swallowed his questions, instinctively trying to comfort me."Nova, Serena grew up outside the pack and doesn't know the rules. Just play along with her.""I'll explain everything to the Pack Council in a few days. I promise to give you the biggest bonding ceremony later. You're the only mate I acknowledge."But I didn't want to be his Luna anymore.My eyes burned as I watched them stand close together. I turned around and walked away.As soon as I started my car, I called the pack Beta."Send out a notice. Cancel tonight's mating party immediately. Charge all the cancellation fees to my personal account."After handling that, I opened my email and replied to the job offer I had planned to decline.[The contract is signed. I'll arrive on time for the wildlife shoot in the Northern Un

I didn't stop walking. Instead, I walked even faster, but he still caught my wrist in a tight grip."Nova, what exactly are you so mad about?"As an Alpha, Felix usually had great control over his emotions. But this time, his eyes burned with real anger.I didn't understand what he meant. Just as I was about to ask, he spoke first."I thought you actually realized you were wrong, but I didn't expect you to be so spiteful.""You know perfectly well that Serena and I are just brother and sister. You and I are the ones who will ultimately have the bonding ceremony. Yet you purposely brought up the altar in front of everyone, and then threw the moonstone back at me. What is that supposed to mean?""Do you have to twist our bond into something dirty just because of your petty jealousy? If you cause the whole pack to gossip about her, how is Serena supposed to survive here?"Every word slammed directly into my chest, making my eyes burn.And here I thought he chased after me to explain why h

The agent's words made my mind go completely blank. I even thought it was a prank call.I had personally gone to the Pack Council to register the territory of the Starfall Lake Resort. How could the owner suddenly become Serena!Sensing my silence, the agent sighed helplessly and forwarded the digital deed transfer to my email.I clicked open the document. The dense legal clauses made my eyes sting, but I still managed to instantly catch my own familiar signature.My whole body stiffened. I searched through all my memories but couldn't recall when I had ever signed this transfer agreement.It wasn't until my eyes landed on the date that the memory flooded my brain like an explosion.It was the night before Serena's coming-of-age ceremony. Felix had suddenly handed me a thick stack of documents."Nova, these are the applications for tax exemptions and border defense upgrades for the resort. They need your consent as the co-owner. Just sign here for me."I was busy processing a batch of

The truck's engine roared as it sped away from the territory. In the rearview mirror, the massive Packhouse grew smaller and smaller until it faded into a distant black dot.Heading to the northern wilderness for the storm shoot was full of unknown dangers. But it was the perfect place to bury seven years of pain and mistreatment.And the people left behind probably wouldn't even notice that I was gone.After all, no one right now would care where a powerless future Luna was going. Or who she was going to see.Meanwhile, in the pack hospital, Felix sat under the cold lights of the clinic for a long time. In the end, he couldn't bring himself to hand in the sample. He pushed the door open and walked out without doing it.Serena was waiting at the end of the hallway. The moment she saw him, she threw herself at him. Her fingers tightly gripped his sleeves. But when she saw he didn't have anything, the smile on her face completely froze.Those eyes, always looking so innocent and sad, ins

Felix frowned. Thinking it was just a temporary block in their bond, he sent it again.But after trying several times, the other end remained completely silent.That unease surged up again. Frowning, he unlocked his phone and opened his texts with Nova.He sent paragraph after paragraph of explanations and apologies, but he got nothing back. He waited a long time, but the screen never lit up.But Felix actually let out a breath, feeling like he was just being paranoid.Nova was definitely still furious over that ridiculous test at the hospital. That was why she stubbornly cut off the link to ignore him.It wasn't like they hadn't had silent treatments like this before. Why was he panicking for nothing?How was it that as his power over the territory grew, he still turned into an anxious little pup whenever his mate got angry?Good thing he hadn't been blocked yet. He still had a line of communication open, so he knew things couldn't be that bad.Felix remembered a time in the past when
