Why Did Escanor Die

Mon compagnon David, Alpha de la tribu, est toujours resté distant à mon égard depuis que je suis devenue sa compagnon et la Luna. Il a toujours cru que j'avais eu l'occasion de m'apparier avec lui et que j'étais rapidement tombée enceinte parce que je lui avais fait avaler des phéromones dans la nuit de la pleine lune. Soucieux de sa réputation en tant qu'Alpha, il a décidé de m'accepter. C'était ainsi que je suis devenue sa mystérieuse Luna. La meute ne savait que David avait revendiqué une Luna, mais personne n'a pu m'associer avec ce titre. C'était pour la même raison qu'il n'a montré aucune affection pour notre enfant lorsque je lui ai donné la naissance. Je me rappelais encore qu'il avait jeté un regard écœuré à notre fils juste avant de pivoter sur ses talons quand le serviteur le lui avait apporté. « Espérons qu'il ne sera pas aussi intrigant et calculatrice comme sa mère et qu'il ne nuira pas à la réputation de la meute ! » J'étais épuisée et affaiblie par l'accouchement, allongée dans le lit, me laissant fondue en larmes. Quelques mois avant, Sophie, l'amie d'enfance de David, était revenue. Après avoir appris cette nouvelle ce jour-là, David était fou de joie. Lorsque qu'il est revenu de chez Sophie, complètement ivre, il a pris notre louveteau dans ses bras. Le fiston s'est blotti contre lui, heureux, et m'a murmuré après : « Maman, tonton a pris l'initiative de me prendre dans ses bras. Il m'a accepté, n'est-ce pas ? » Je l'ai serré fort avec mes yeux larmoyants avant de lui expliquer : « Sa véritable compagne est revenue. C'est le moment pour nous de quitter. » Personne ne savait encore que mon guérisseur avait diagnostiqué l'épuisement de mon âme du loup. Il ne me restait plus que trois jours de vie. Avant ma mort, je devais envoyer mon enfant chez mes parents où il serait aimé et soigné au lieu de le laisser être détesté et abandonné par son propre père. Après ces trois jours, David ne reverrait ni moi ni notre louveteau, plus jamais.

I was just a married woman trying to survive my husband’s debts. But when I took the job as a maid for three powerful, controlling, dominant men. I walked into something far darker than dusty shelves and dishes in the sink. They don’t just want their floors spotless. No, they want me bound and bent over on their bed. They say I’m too pretty to be stuck with a loser and too sweet for plain sex and too soft to resist them. And they’ll stop at nothing until they ruin my marriage, break me open and make me theirs. Even if it means dragging me into a world where dominance is law, and obedience is survival.

The daughter of my father's first love suffered from heatstroke because she was left in the car, so he tied me up in a fit of anger and locked me in the car boot. He looked at me with utter disgust and said, "I don't have a vicious daughter like you. Stay here and reflect on yourself." I begged him, apologized to him, and pleaded for him to let me out, but all I got in return was his ruthless order. "Unless she dies, no one is allowed to let her out." The car was parked in the garage. No one could hear me no matter how much I screamed for help. Seven days later, he finally remembered me and decided to let me out. However, he had no idea that I had already died in that trunk and could never wake up again.

The operation had just gone dark when the chatter started in the comms. “Easy, Zane. Don’t burn through another mattress.” A low laugh came through the headset. Relaxed. Careless. “I’ve been deployed for six months. I needed the release. And don’t let my wife hear that.” More laughter. “Right. Take care of the little mistress first, then call home and play devoted husband?” My phone rang. His voice when I answered was warm. Intimate. Soft in a way it never was on the field. He said he missed me. Said he counted the days until he could come home. I watched the live drone feed while he said it. What he didn’t know was that three months ago, I had quietly transferred into the family’s Strategic Intelligence division. Every operation his crew ran, I was the one behind the monitors—tracking shipments, rerouting safehouses, intercepting rival signals, listening to every word spoken over secured lines. The first night he slept with her, I logged the timestamp. 00:43 hours. When the call ended, I dialed another number—encrypted, family internal. “I’ll accept your offer,” I said calmly. “After this job, I’m stepping away.” The voice on the other end was steady. Controlled. Powerful. “You’ll leave after the Palermo Capture,” he replied. “I’ll personally see to your relocation.” A pause. “Three days.”

Just the girl he kept hidden. He never even looked my way. So why was I still holding on? One phone call later, I was done. Time to leave—and see what else was out there.

**“— One year! A damn year being your wife without ever being anything to you! — I spat the words, holding back my tears with clenched teeth. — And now you think you can just… keep existing in my life? Ace looked at me with that calmness of someone who had always won without needing to fight. But this time, it wouldn’t be like that. — I never stopped you from leaving, Luna. You’re the one who kept waiting for something I never promised. — I stayed because I thought that… maybe you would see me. That at some point I’d stop being just your obligation. But it doesn’t matter anymore, I’m finally managing to forget you. He stepped closer until his warmth brushed against my body. — Then why do you still tremble when I come near? — Because you scare me… — I whispered weakly. — Is that it? Is that really it? Or is it because you know that if I touched you even once… — his voice dropped lower, hot and provoking — …you’d never be able to walk away again.” Luna Bexter had loved Ace Montesino for a long time. She thought she was lucky to become his wife in a marriage of convenience, but after the one-year term ended, Luna grew tired of waiting for Ace’s feelings to change and decided to leave. Is it truly possible for them to go their separate ways?**
