All Chapters of He Called Me Luna After I Broke Our Bond: Chapter 1 - Chapter 10

Leon glanced at the slip."Going back to White Bay again?""This time I'm removing the mark."He finally looked at me, but he didn't take the paper."Erin, you're carrying my child. Stop threatening to leave every time your feelings get hurt."The wind caught the slip. I pressed my hand down on it, and the cut on my palm split open again.He saw the blood, and his voice softened a little. "I never said I wouldn't take care of you. Just come home tonight."I took the tissue he handed me and shut the car door.The next day, Leon was 20 minutes late.When he sat down, he was still texting Clara back."Can we go once this is done? Clara has a follow-up today."I didn't answer. I took out the ID documents, medical records, and separation arrangements my lawyer, Martha Reed, had put together.Simon, the council witness, handed each of us a copy of the papers.A private mate contract was legally binding, even without a public ceremony. Ending it didn't depend on who the pack Elders liked or s

Nina got me to the healing center, and Helen insisted on keeping me there for observation.I called Leon and asked him to bring the pregnancy records from my nightstand."Now?" It was loud on his end. "Clara just threw up. The driver will bring them in a bit."I said, "I'm in the monitoring unit."The line went quiet for a second. "Put Helen on."Once Helen told him I was stable for now, he said he'd be right over.But he never came that night.In the early hours, Clara posted a photo. Leon was sitting by her bed, holding a glass of water for her.The caption read, "So lucky you're always here."I turned off my phone and signed the request to move into the center's residential apartments.On day ten, Leon finally showed up.He didn't bring the records. What he handed me was a guest list for the baby's naming ceremony."Mom already booked the hall. Take a look and see if there's anyone you want to add."His name was at the top. Beside it, Clara's name appeared as the ceremony's host.I

After the train pulled out, Leon called again and again.I didn't pick up. My mother put my phone on silent and set it on the little table.It was two months before I found out, from the apology letter he sent, what happened when that notice reached him.He'd still been in Clara's hospital room.Her dressing had just been changed, and the nurse asked him to confirm the schedule for the next week. He was looking through it when pain tore through the side of his neck, like it was being ripped open.The schedule fell to the floor.He thought something had gone wrong with my recovery and reached for me through the link.No answer.Inside him, Leon's wolf, Rex, threw himself at the bond that was no longer there and howled in pain. Leon gripped the edge of the bed and could barely stay on his feet.Then he saw the notice on his phone.The notice included the consent form bearing his signature and the exact time the bond had been broken.Clara asked him what was wrong. He called Martha, then

It was Martha who told me something had happened to Leon at the estate."Victoria insisted he come back to talk, and he went."That became part of the investigation, too. Through the lawyers, I saw the statements related to the original case. He'd gone back to collect the devices linked to the household account and revoke Victoria's authority to give private instructions on his behalf.Owen was helping the police with documents, so he was going to be late.According to Leon's statement, when he walked into the living room alone, a warm drink was already waiting on the table.Victoria was sitting by the fireplace, and the first thing she asked about was me. "I hear you want to go to White Bay to find Erin?"Since she's broken the mark, she should know we can't welcome her the way we used to."Leon put the papers transferring her authority on the table right then."I'm not asking you to welcome her. I'm here to take back control of my affairs."Victoria had handled the Blake family's soc

That night, after seeing Leon, I had a nightmare.In the dream, Noah had been born. He was asleep on my shoulder, so warm.I wanted to call Leon over to see him.But when I turned around, the baby was gone.I woke with a start, my arms still curved like I was holding him.My mother heard me and came to sit with me for a long time.When the sun came up, I decided to go to the memorial garden.Noah was buried beneath a small stone marker with his name carved into it. My father had helped me with the paperwork for the plot, and I'd picked out a shrub that bloomed white in spring.I didn't want my baby to go without even a name, like no one had ever been waiting for him.Before I left, I told my mother I'd be back by ten and turned on location sharing with my family.The memorial garden sat beside a saltwater lagoon, and people often walked there in the mornings. I went to the little stone marker, set down the wooden wolf, and sat on the bench."Mommy didn't sleep well last night. But it'l
