The Full Moon I Left Him의 모든 챕터: 챕터 1 - 챕터 10

I lay unconscious in the forest at the pack's border for half the night before a patrol guard found me and carried me back to pack territory.Lying on the bed in the healing room, my calf still throbbed with a dull ache.I touched my belly and closed my eyes, and all I could see was Lucas choosing to leave me behind without a second thought when the attack happened yesterday.For the past six months, ever since the day he brought Vivian back to the territory, my hopes had been worn away, bit by bit, through countless moments of being overlooked.I forced my weak body out of bed and leaned against the wall as I went to find the healer for some pain-relieving herbs.Passing the main hall on the east side, I heard Vivian's soft, spoiled complaining drifting from inside."Alpha, this calming herb brew is so bitter, I can't drink it..."I stopped and peered through the half-open door.Lucas was half-kneeling beside the table, a warm stone bowl in his hands, patiently stirring it with a wood

Another day passed, and the burns began to form ugly black scabs.I soaked my burned hand in cold water, smeared on some herbs, and slung the herb-gathering basket over my shoulder, planning to head to the back mountain first to collect the herb seeds I could take with me.I'd just reached the tree-lined path outside the main hall when I ran straight into several patrolling elders and guards.The head elder spotted the bundle on my shoulder, and his face darkened instantly."Stop right there! It's this late, and you're sneaking around. Where do you think you're going?"I halted and spoke calmly."I'm going to the back mountain to collect herb seeds. I'll be back by morning."The head elder let out a cold snort and waved two guards forward to block my path."Liar! Vivian just pleaded with the Alpha on your behalf, saying you accidentally burned your hand and need rest. What herb seeds are you collecting in the middle of the night?""I bet you're jealous that the Alpha is spending tonigh

Lucas's POVThe crowd below the platform erupted into an uproar.Lucas dropped to one knee, gasping for breath, cold sweat sliding down his temples."Alpha, what's wrong?"Vivian rushed over in a panic to steady his arm.But Lucas couldn't hear her at all.He clutched at the front of his shirt. It was hollow there. The mate bond that had once bound him so tightly to Eileen was gone. Completely gone.How could he not sense Eileen's presence anymore?Was she still angry, using some witch's secret art to block his perception?Lucas gritted his teeth and snatched up the crown from the ground.He paid Vivian no mind at all. He vaulted off the platform and sprinted toward the chamber."Alpha! The investiture isn't finished yet!"Vivian's voice shrieked after him, but Lucas's figure had already vanished into the night.The head elder climbed onto the platform, his face ugly, and muttered under his breath:"It's got to be that witch Eileen again, messing with dark arts in her chamber, delibera

Lucas's POVWhen Lucas and his men charged into the river valley, all they found were a few rogue carcasses on the ground."Alpha! There are signs of a fight here!"The guard captain examined the rogues' wounds, and his expression shifted drastically."Every one of these rogues was killed in a single strike. Whoever did this is monstrously strong. There's no way the Luna could've pulled this off!"Lucas strode over and looked down at the white powder scattered across the ground.It was the protective poison powder Eileen always carried.She'd just been ambushed by rogues here!Lucas's heart clenched tight, his breathing turning ragged.Eileen's leg was still injured, her right hand was burned to a bloody mess by the coals, and she'd just suffered the backlash of the bond-breaking. How could she possibly have fought off that many rogues?He searched frantically through the surrounding brush until he spotted a trail of blood drops beneath a tree trunk. His legs went weak, and he nearly d

The Northern Wolf Clan Assembly was held at the White Stone Plaza in the neutral zone.The Alphas of every major pack gathered there with their best warriors, the atmosphere lively but taut.I wore a white witch's robe specially made by the Silvermoon Pack, with the silver-wolf cloak Cedric had given me draped over my shoulders, and stood quietly beside the Silvermoon seats.The moment I entered, I felt a burning gaze lock onto me.Lucas came striding toward me with the Blackstone Pack's people in tow.In just three days, he'd visibly wasted away. Heavy dark circles ringed his eyes, and messy stubble had sprouted along his jaw."Eileen!"Lucas rushed up to me and reached for my wrist, but Cedric stepped forward and blocked him.Two formidable Alpha auras collided. Lucas was forced back half a step."Cedric, this is a family matter between me and my Luna. You'd better get out of the way!"Lucas looked at me, his eyes red-rimmed, his tone carrying a pleading he didn't even notice himself
