All Chapters of Luna's Revenge: I Break Our Bond: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

When I had confronted Eric about it, he had said, "Irina isn't familiar with our territory, so what's wrong with me sending her back to her house?"He had spoken in such a justified tone, as though a mated Alpha frequently sending his female subordinate back to her place late at night and staying around an hour or two each time was something utterly normal.When I asked him why he had never told me about it before, his expression had instantly turned cold. "Are you interrogating your Alpha right now, Freya?"He then began accusing me of always being so paranoid and suspicious. According to him, Irina was a hardworking subordinate who didn't deserve to be shamed by a Luna who was feeling insecure.The next morning, he took things one step further and even promoted Irina to the position of his personal secretary."Since you seem to distrust me so much, I'll prove to you that there's nothing shameful going on between me and Irina!"Although I protested this decision, he refused to b

"By the way," Eric said, "the mine acquisition is proceeding as planned. Irina is doing quite well, so I hope to have her temporarily take over your other duties as well, not just the procurement part. This would be a good chance for you to take a break and relax. What do you think?"He stared at me intently, waiting for my response.On the surface, it sounded like he was asking me for my opinion, but I knew that he had likely already written out the official order."I have no objections."Eric's expression visibly faltered for a moment. In the past, every time he wanted to hand my duties to Irina, I would fight back with budgets, data, and risk assessments.However, this time, I hadn't done anything like that.He regained his composure soon enough. "Great. Since you're meant to relax, I'll assign you to some light-duty records review work for now."To put it simply, that would mean I would be in charge of reviewing old contracts and cross-checking archived documents. This m

"Calm down, Eric." Irina stepped closer and rested a hand on his arm. "Freya's only behaving like this because she cares too much about you."Then she turned to me. "The clasp on my necklace came undone. Eric was just helping me fasten it. We're meeting with the envoy from the Alliance tonight. I have to make sure I look presentable."Her tone softened, as though she were speaking to some petulant child. "Please don't misunderstand, Freya. We're just handling official business. That's all."She had crossed the boundaries she should have respected with my mate, but she was now telling me not to make a big deal out of it. I didn't want to say anything more. Eric, however, took my silence as an admission of guilt."There are rules in the pack," he said to me. "You entered my office without permission. From now on, you're suspended from all your duties. You don't need to report to the office anymore."Eric, the Alpha who'd turned a blind eye to Irina crossing the line time and time ag

"Suit yourself," I said as I looked Eric in the eye, my expression calm. "That's just a copy of the appointment letter anyway. If you want to tear it up, you can print as many copies as you like and tear them all to shreds."For the first time, Eric looked helpless and uncertain. All he could do was use his physical advantage as the Alpha to block the door with his large frame, making sure I couldn't get past him.Seeing that, I immediately called the Alliance."Hello, this is Freya Brandt, the newly appointed head of the Trade Analysis Department. Someone is attempting to restrict my freedom of movement. He's—"Eric's expression stiffened."Freya! Are you seriously doing this?" he confronted me in disbelief. "We've spent so many years together, yet you're trying to destroy me?"The Silvermoon Alliance symbolized peace between humans and werewolves. If word got out that he had tried to forcefully restrain someone from the Alliance, someone could very well interpret his actions as

"Don't bother," I said before holding my appointment letter up to the camera and pointing to a number printed on it. "I'm serving a five-year term, and the Alliance has already approved my residency permit. I'm not going back there, and I'm certainly not going to see you."Eric stared at the number on the document. The ring slipped from his hand and fell with a sharp clink."So, you planned all of this from the very start?""That's right.""So, none of this was ever just a scare tactic to trick me?""Of course not. I made up my mind long ago," I said before dropping the call and blocking Eric's new number.…A month later, the results of the Alliance's on-site investigation into the Frostclaw pack came in. It was confirmed that the pack had falsified information on its application. Therefore, their application for an inter-species trade license was denied, and I was the one who signed the denial.That same day, a crisis hit the mine, too. The mining crew had dug deep into the m
