Ailara's POVWhen I didn't respond, Lucian became even angrier. "Why are you always fighting with Freya over the smallest matters? You clearly know how pitiful she is. As the pack's Luna, you should be showing some sympathy toward her."Due to the shock she received, her wolf spirit is still quite unstable. I have to handle some pack matters tomorrow, so you'll have to take her to the healer to soothe her wolf spirit."I slowly turned to look at him, taking in the worry that marred his handsome features because of Freya."Alright."Lucian likely hadn't expected that I would agree so easily, appearing momentarily stunned. However, my compliance pleased him, as he thought that I was finally being more understanding."That's more like it. Ailara, you're with pup now, so you need to set a good example. From now on, you need to stop being so petty. And stop picking on Freya."With that, he turned and left.Seconds later, the sound of him gently coaxing Freya drifted to my ears.I s

Ailara's POVSeveral days later, to celebrate the pack not losing anyone during the berserk outbreak on the night of the full moon, the pack threw a grand feast.As the Alpha and Luna of the pack, Lucian and I had to attend together. However, once I had changed into my gown, I suddenly received a message from him."Why is it that I can't seem to sense you over the mate bond and can only contact you using my phone?"Anyway, after what happened with the Gamma warriors the other day, Freya is utterly terrified to face them alone. I have to accompany her, so you can just head inside yourself."There were no more messages after that. It seemed like Lucian didn't even care why he couldn't seem to feel our mate bond.I stared at my reflection in the mirror, noting the unhealthy pallor to my skin, and found this all so laughable.During that terrible night, my pup was the only one who died. Yet, no one seemed to care about that, nor did they wonder just what sort of suffering I was curr

Third-Person POVLucian stumbled back to the house and rushed into the Luna's quarters, only to be met by a scent that wasn't Ailara's. That was when he remembered he'd assigned the room to Freya. His face went deathly pale as he staggered toward the guest room. He pushed the door open and found that the room was empty. Every trace of Ailara was gone. Then, Lucian remembered something else. He rushed to the storage room, searching for the framed photograph Ailara had told him about. But the moment he saw what was inside, he froze in the doorway, unable to take another step. In the dim storage room, the huge framed photograph stood in the corner. However, Ailara's half had been cut away, leaving only Lucian in his formal attire. Memories came rushing back. Ailara and Lucian had taken the photograph during their marking ceremony. That day, they'd sworn never to betray each other. If either of them ever betrayed the other, they would cut the photograph in two and never see

Ailara's POVOnce I settled down in Morington, life fell into a quiet rhythm. Every day, I did little more than visit Hazel Thornfield, the healer, and work on restoring my wolf. When my final treatment was over, Hazel stopped me. "Ailara, your wolf is healthy now, but you're still wasting away inside. Whatever happened in the past, you still need to figure out where you want to go from here."It was something I had never even considered. Lucian and I had grown up together, and from an early age, I had known I'd one day become his Luna. All I had to do was help the Alpha lead the pack. I had never stopped to ask myself what I wanted.After I left the pack, I felt lost, like a traveler wandering through fog with no idea which way to turn. Hazel sighed when she saw me like that. Then, she said, "If you'd like, you can learn from me. Healers are needed throughout the neutral territories. Once you're trained, you could become a healer yourself."Until then, becoming a healer had
