Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 16. Jealosy & Intimacy
Claire P.O.VI took Ethan's hand as he guided me into the room Lucy had set up for me. His hand was big, with long, strong fingers, and I could feel some calluses on his palms like he'd been lifting something heavy for a while.The mansion was massive. When I decided to leave the room, I had no clue where to go, just wandering until I ended up in the backyard of that enormous place.Not knowing how to return to my room, I stood there, lost in memories of all the times I shared with Sister Alberta and the rest of my family back in the dorm. Eventually, Ethan came looking for me.Standing in front of the room Lucy had given me, I hesitated at the door, causing Ethan to look at me curiously."Do you need something?" he finally asked, noticing I hadn't stepped inside."Are you heading back to your room?" My question made Ethan raise an eyebrow.It seemed silly, and I could tell he thought so, too."Aren't you scared of sleeping alone?""Honestly, yeah. I've never really gotten used to it.

Claire P.O.VAfter tidying up and getting dressed that morning, I headed downstairs with Ethan. A spread of different dishes awaited us at the dining table, along with Lucy, who was sitting there spreading butter and a bit of jam on a piece of bread.Just like the day before. Lucy looked stunning. Her wavy hair flowed freely, swaying with every movement of her head. It was gorgeous, and I can't count how many times I've said it, but Lucy truly deserves all the compliments."What time did he call?" Ethan asked, giving Lucy a quick kiss on the lips.It was 7:30 AM when he called to say he was at Hong Kong airport and would be there in an hour."Whose plane is he on?""I'm not sure, but it might be your jet. Before you decided to head home, I overheard Danny chatting with someone about the plane.""Ugh, he better cover the expenses." Ethan was annoyed but quickly took his usual spot in the front seat reserved for the family leader.Ethan and Lucy's chat felt so effortless, like they were

Claire P.O.VWhat?! A Fiancee?My hands were trembling after I heard that news. My breathing got out of whack because I was in shock, realizing that my gut feeling was spot on. Ethan and Lucy aren't just dating; they're engaged.I shouldn't have been too shocked, but wasn't I supposed to be his destined mate? I'm his Luna, right? So why does he have a fiancée? A million questions raced through my mind, especially why Ethan would do this to me.Before I could process it all, the car pulled up to the airport. Ethan, after dropping the bomb about Lucy being his fiancée, just went quiet. He didn't even try to explain why he brought me to this Pack when he was already committed to someone else. A She-Wolf he chose to be with.I kept my head down and took hesitant steps as I trailed behind Ethan toward the airport's main lobby. Tears were on the verge of spilling, but I fought to hold them back. I didn't want Ethan to see me cry and think I was weak."Oh my god! I've been trying to reach yo

Ethan P.O.V"Did she ever meet Lucy?" Chen Lien suddenly threw that question at me. Naturally, I replied with a yes.When I probed him about it, he shot me a smile laced with anger, which sparked another question in my mind."Why's that?""You're being too reckless.""What do you mean by that?"He looked at me like I had committed some major blunder, and it seemed to disappoint him more than anything. Usually, no matter how poorly I perform, Chen Lien always finds something nice to say. But right now, everything just feels off."Now look at her; she's probably super jealous, which could mess up our whole plan."Jealous? Why would he even feel that way? That's ridiculous.""If I'm just rambling, then why did he rush to his room? He didn't say a word to you, did he?""Can you just drop it? I don't want to hear this.""But you need to consider it if you want to get what you're after, right? Just remember to be nice to him first." He said as he strolled off.Seeing Chen Lien walk away mad

Claire P.O.V I let out a sigh and leaned back in my chair. No matter how long Chen Lien and I had been friends, it felt like I could never really understand what was happening in her head. We might as well have been strangers."What if I don't treat her right?" I muttered, glancing up at the ceiling with another long sigh. I shouldn't have acted so childishly in front of Ethan and his friends, who had always been decent to me. Not that I could call what they did a real favor.It was too early to hit the hay, but I felt awkward to walk outside. Embarrassed and guilty about my behavior, I just sat on the edge of the bed, staring out the window at the tall trees in the forest.I had been living in a dorm but found peace whenever I wandered into the little forest behind it. A short stroll there would help clear my mind instead of obsessing over the silly stuff about Ethan and Lucy.After thinking, I finally left the room and headed to the forest to clear my head. I wasn't sure what kind o

Claire P.O.VChen Lien handed me a plate piled high with crepes, grilled sausage, tacos, a sandwich slice, and a soda. It felt like too much food, especially since he had a meal."Why just stare? Dig in! At least if you're full, you won't be tempted to do something silly like wandering into the woods.""I've done that plenty of times.""You might know where you're headed, but you have no clue about the dangers lurking around," he replied, taking a bite of his sandwich.I watched him as a few strands of his long hair danced in the breeze, and his jawline looked striking from the side. I've seen a lot of Asian guys on TV, and they're definitely good-looking with those soft features, but I never imagined they could look this stunning up close."Why are you looking at me like that?"I was caught off guard when Chen Lien noticed me staring. I quickly turned my head, but then he shot me a grin, showing off his dimple on just one side."Do I seem like a stranger, or maybe a bit sinister?" he

Ethan P.O.VI felt a gentle warmth on my chest while I was out on the balcony, taking a puff. Lucy wrapped her arms around me, planting soft kisses on my back. It was the same sweet kiss I always got, and I should be feeling over the moon with all this love from her. But honestly, it just feels hollow right now."What's on your mind?" Lucy asked, her hand resting on my abs. It tickled a bit, but it didn't really spark anything."I'm just trying to figure out how to make a solid offer for the exchange," I said.But that wasn't the real thought running through my head. There was something more profound, but I kept it simple to avoid stirring up unnecessary drama between us.Lucy shifted, now standing before me, wrapped only in a sheet, with nothing else on her.Her curves are so perfectly shaped; I can't help but want to touch them all the time. Honestly, after we hook up, I just want to chill and enjoy that moment."How about we devise a clever plan to buy some time until Christopher G

Claire P.O.VI pushed Ethan away from me, and it felt like I was trying to move a massive tree—heavy and totally zapping my energy."Can you just back off a bit?""Why should I?""Because you're giving off way too many pheromones. It's like drowning in a bucket of perfume I'm not a fan of." I explained.I even took a few steps back to keep his scent from mixing with Lucy's. I don't hate his pheromones since he's my mate, but how they blend with She-Wolf's scent is just not cool for us.The mixed scent hit me hard, and I had to swallow. It was really uncomfortable to keep breathing it in. I even turned my face away from Ethan, secretly hoping he'd get mad and just walk away."Are you with Lucy? Why are you still here? Go meet her." I spun around, trying to shake off this guy who was way too hard to resist.No way. I could say no. I'd probably do it when I realized there was no reason for me to stick around with him, even if the moon goddess had other plans for us. The strength of our b

Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 90. War & Warfare
Ethan’s P.O.VThe night sky was pitch-black, heavy clouds looming overhead like a bad omen. Ethan stood at the edge of the forest, his sharp gaze scanning the terrain ahead. Beside him were his Warriors—fearless men and women who’d follow him to hell and back. They all knew tonight's mission was a gamble, but their loyalty to Ethan, their leader, outweighed the fear creeping up their spines.“We hit ‘em head-on. No mercy,” Ethan's voice rang out, solid as steel. The Warriors responded with synchronized nods, ready to roll.Up north, Malvic Stalon, Alpha of the Lycans, awaited the signal. In the dead silence, the towering Lycans stood in their full forms—living, breathing war machines. Muscles rippled under thick hides; claws and razor-sharp fangs gleamed as the fractured moonlight kissed their lethal silhouettes.“This is it. We crush the Moon Fall Pack!” Malvic’s voice thundered, icy and deadly.No way were they giving Christopher Gale’s lackeys a free pass. Didn’t matter if those wo

Ethan’s P.O.V“You can’t do that!” I yelled, my voice loud enough to make him stop. “Even if you’ve heard that I never wanted her as my Luna, she’s still my Luna, no matter what.”“Oh, you’re pretty greedy for someone so young.” he said with his smirk.“What?!”“I’ve been there too. Chasing my wild ambitions, building my empire over other races. I was strong, way smarter than you werewolves, but the more I realized I couldn’t do everything I wanted because of limits, the less I wanted it. Maybe you should start thinking the same.”“But she’s my Luna!” I shouted to him.“And she’s the next Alpha of this Pack.” He shot back, his tone sharp, emotions barely held in check. “Even though you’re fated mates, there’s no personal bond between you two. So, when this is over, you can go back to your life, and I’ll take responsibility for hers.”What the hell? Hearing him say all this infuriating stuff, I couldn’t even muster a single word in response. It felt like I was being crushed into useles
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 88. The Races & Arch-Enemies
Ethan's P.O.VMalvic Stalon—the Alpha of the Lycans from the North. This is seriously something else. How could the elders in this Pack pull off something like this? I mean, from the North to this Pack is a crazy long distance, at least two days’ journey. And during all that time, the warriors and all the loyalists guarding Christopher Gale’s mansion didn’t catch wind of his arrival? That’s just nuts. No way that’s possible.Even if the warriors were as oblivious as a brick wall, ignoring the presence of another species within the Pack is not something any of us would take lightly.And let’s be real, Werewolves and Lycans are like oil and water—silent enemies. There’s no official declaration of hatred between us, but Lycans and their “holier-than-thou” attitude make us Werewolves sick. That arrogance fuels our endless animosity—a beef with no expiration date.What’s more, everyone pretty much knows about the Northern Lycans’ beef with Christopher Gale. Rumor has it the fake Alpha snat
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 87. Allies & Enemies
Ethan's P.O.VAfter patching up some wounds and catching our breath for a bit, we took off, trailing Andara Spectra up a hill near the ridges surrounding The Moon Fall Pack. The old lady—once part of the Elders from that big Pack—claimed she’d be performing a summoning there, saying an Elder resided in that area, only showing up at the Pack when Christopher Gale called for meetings. I probably should’ve been more suspicious about this, but Andara Spectra wasn’t giving off any shady vibes. Even Chen Lien, who had a nose for deception, didn’t pick up on anything sketchy from the old woman. So, we figured we might as well follow her lead. The spot was a bit of a hike, tucked into the forest. But when we got there, we saw a small cabin, and from it, we had a clear view of Christopher Gale’s fancy-ass mansion. I’d been there once before—back when we first struck this deal. The negotiations started off smooth, but the second I found out that the person I was supposed to capture in exchan
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 88. Longing & Hatred
Claire’s P.O.VI couldn’t freaking believe what was right in front of me. It was Sister Alberta and the orphanage kids—the only family I ever knew, the people I thought were dead. But they weren’t. They were alive, trapped behind metal bars in some dark, cold room inside the ridiculously lavish mansion of Christopher Gale. That fake-ass Alpha. I had spent years believing he had slaughtered my family, only to find out the bastard had been keeping them hidden, away from me. Why? Just to break me. Just to see me drown in despair. My eyes locked onto Sister Alberta, her frail figure seated in a wheelchair, being pushed closer by Sister Annabella so our hands could touch through the bars. I couldn’t hold back my tears anymore. The kids were wailing, their cries echoing in the room, filled with fear, hopelessness, and a longing that cut deep into my soul. Her wrinkled hand reached out to me, trembling, desperate. I tried to do the same, but before I could, Christopher Gale yanked my w
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 87. Arrival & A Plan
Following Chen Lien's directions, I quickly asked my warriors to prep the plane. We're flying over to The Moon Fall Pack to pick up Claire.Therefore, I decided to head back to my Pack, personally imprison Lucy, and request the Elders to immediately integrate Sir Torrance's Pack into The Silver Fire Pack. I didn’t want to waste time and effort doing it another day.Upon arriving at my Pack, I was greeted by Andara Spectra, the former Elder of The Moon Fall Pack.Andara informed me that neither she nor Octa found anything on the escape route that Lucy Torrance created to facilitate Christopher Gale's plans. She even requested some guards to plant explosives on that route to destroy it, ensuring no one could use it in the future.Honestly, I liked that decision because, aside from having Octa with her, I also noticed that Andara's skills as an Elder were still top-notch. Her intuition remained sharp, and she was still wise. It showed when she made the Rogue Wolves in that forest much mo
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 86. Truth & Lies
Claire’s P.O.VRight in front of me stood a massive, jaw-dropping mansion. Almost the entire exterior was made of marble, making it look ridiculously solid, like, no way could even a thousand of the strongest wolf fangs take this thing down. I’d only ever seen a packhouse twice in my life, one of them being Ethan’s. And yeah, that one was impressive, but this? This mansion blew Ethan’s out of the water. Way more majestic, sturdier… or maybe just eerily quieter. “Why are you just standing there? Go on, step inside. After all, this mansion was yours to begin with.” Christopher Gale spoke like he was offering some grand, heartfelt welcome, like I was supposed to be grateful or something. Wait, what did he just say? Mine to begin with? Had I actually lived in a place like this before I became an orphan and was raised by the nuns at the convent? Why did his words sound so sweet and yet cut so deep at the same time? Is this just how he is? Showering his soon-to-be victims with compliment
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 85. Hunting & Hunted
Ethan’s P.O.VBlood pooled on the ground, mixing with the ash and dust of the ruins. The night air reeked of burning flesh, agonized screams, and the final gasps of those foolish enough to resist. A pack that once stood proud under Alpha Torrance’s rule. Now reduced to rubble and corpses. If only the civilians had just stayed put and watched, maybe they wouldn’t have died such meaningless deaths. Wasn’t that exactly what I ordered after letting my warriors unleash absolute carnage on this pack? Pathetic. A damn shame to witness, but even more frustrating to remember. Because no matter how much I hate to admit it, this pack had once meant something to me—to all of us. But their heir—Lucy Torrance, decided to play traitor. And that? That, I could never let slide. I stood amidst the chaos, my breath ragged, heart still pounding with adrenaline coursing through my veins. My hands were coated in blood some of it belonged to my enemies, some to those stupid enough to stand in my way to
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 84. Arrive & Kill
Claire's P.O.V This was one hell of a long journey—way longer than I ever could’ve imagined. When Ethan took me from my old Pack to the Silver Fire Pack, he had us fly in a private jet, cutting the travel time short. But this bastard? He was dragging me through an endless nightmare. I had no clue where the hell this so-called Moon Fall Pack was, but he kept driving, twisting and turning like he was deliberately trying to confuse me. For the rest of the trip, I didn’t say a damn word to Christopher Gale. He did the same—silent, no small talk, nothing. Honestly, that was probably for the best. If we had talked, all I would’ve gotten from him was a bunch of sarcastic bullshit. The car had been speeding down this pitch-black, deserted road for about two hours now. There wasn’t a single streetlight, not even the faintest glow outside the window. Just pure, suffocating darkness. It was like we had left civilization behind and were driving straight into some forsaken void. But then,
