Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 24. Obedient & Rebellious
Claire P.O.V"What are you up to over there?" Ethan asked, looking pretty annoyed.I could see the frustration and irritation written all over his face. It felt like he had come here just to take it out on me. But honestly, I didn't want to let it bother me.He stepped closer, and I noticed he looked more put together that afternoon. Like Chen Lien mentioned, Ethan and I had been busy with something outside.His long black coat fluttered a bit as he moved. I wasn't sure when he started wearing it, but I could still see his cologne mixed with Lucy's scent.Sure thing! No one could break their bond, especially with all those pheromones flying around when they were together."Are you trying to make a run for it?" he asked, just a short distance away.What was that all about? If I really wanted to, I might have pulled a Chen Lien and jumped out the window. But here I was, stuck in this situation, not wanting to make things worse."If I wanted to leave, why are you still here with me?" Eth

Claire P.O.VI shoved Ethan back hard enough that he slammed against the bathroom wall. He looked pretty upset, but I wasn't about to let him keep holding onto me like he had any control over the situation."How could you do this to me?""Just get out! Didn't you get what you came for?" I shot back, feeling furious.After that, I jumped in the shower and sprayed water all over him, soaking and making him even angrier. I noticed Ethan trying to inch closer, but the water I directed at him felt like my shield. I could still back away a bit until he finally gave up.He shot me a sharp look, and for a moment, the guy just froze, then suddenly yanked the shower from my hands. I was terrified, thinking Ethan might lash out at me for what I did, but instead, he just gripped the shower with this icy stare before tossing it to the floor."I'll be waiting for you downstairs in twenty minutes." He said that and then walked out.Watching him storm off, soaked and furious, I felt guilt. But I'd be

Ethan P.O.VI stood up and said, "I don't think this chat is going anywhere anymore."There was still a lot of food left on my plate, but I chose to get up from the table. The longer I stayed, the more pointless my talk with Chen Lien felt."Alpha,"Called out an old man named Ethan as he stepped out of the dining room.Ethan glanced back at the elderly man seated with us at the table. It was Elder Elvis, a pretty impressive figure as long as he held his position. Elvis hardly ever paid attention to my business or anything else, for that matter.But look at him now. He called my name without even glancing at me."What do you need, El?""She's your destined mate, right?""What do you want?""Your job is to protect her, but trying to mould her into what you want will drive you crazy. So, quit being unfair and figure out who you'll make Luna in this Pack.""What does that even mean? Am I not the top candidate for Luna in this Pack? Why are you still doubting what's obvious?" Lucy shot ba

Claire P.O.VI looked up when I heard Ethan's voice from above. I thought I'd slipped away unnoticed, but I was totally wrong. There he was, standing on the balcony over the garden, giving us that same annoying, condescending look he always has.While I sat there in silence, the Elder, an old lady, got up. She bowed her frail body and smiled as she greeted him. Honestly, I don't want to be like her because Ethan is more of a jerk than a true Alpha."Why are you here, Alpha?" Octa asked, sounding all polite and friendly."Don't make me repeat myself, Octa."Octa grinned, "Is it a problem that I'm here?""No one asked for your input. Go to your room, and you too, Claire Halle," Ethan commanded again.I was the one who held back from responding to Ethan, and it turned into a whole argument. So, I sighed, got up, and touched Octa's shoulder. With a smile, I said,"Come on inside. The Alpha has given his orders." Octa smiled back at me.But just as I was about to pull Octa up, that Old Lady

Ethan P.O.VI let out a growl when that damn Rouge Wolf bit my hand hard. I really shouldn't have dropped my guard. Claire screamed when it happened, and I could see she was ready to fight back, but I quickly told her to stay behind me.I thought that those pesky Rouge Wolves would back off if I stood up to him since they knew who I was. Turns out, I was totally wrong. When I tried to push them away, I looked like a total loser in front of this Luna I didn't want to acknowledge.These guys are part of the Rouge Wolf pack that hangs out deep in the mountains behind the forest. Our housepack is right on the edge of their hunting grounds. You'd think they'd back off when they realized I was the Alpha, but instead, they just got even more aggressive.Ten years ago, I clashed with their leader over territory expansion. They were furious, and ever since, they've been hell-bent on reclaiming what they lost, pulling stunts like this occasionally. Right before the full moon, they have this rit

Claire P.O.VNo! No! No! This can't be real! Why isn't anyone from Ethan's Pack coming to my rescue? What are they thinking?! I'm going to die for sure; they're going to end me.My head is spinning. This Rogue Wolf has me wrapped up, hauling me around like I'm just some lifeless thing, weaving through the massive trees in front of us. But once we hit the thick brush, there's no way out for me.I yelled so many times as they charged through the tall grass and thorny bushes. I tried to shield my face with my hands, but it didn't help. I still ended up getting scratched. The thorns dug into me, ripped my clothes a bit, and made me bleed, leaving me grimacing in pain. If I had known how to defend myself, I would've fought back and run for it."Arrgh! Noooo!!!" I let out a scream when we reached the edge of the cliff. No doubt about it, the Rogue Wolf leapt up, followed closely by the other Wolf behind him.This is insane! It felt like I was staring death in the face. They jumped off a re

Claire P.O.VThe woman took care of the cut on my elbow and a few other bruises I had. I still didn't know her name, but I could feel her kindness; it made me forget I was in a challenging situation."It's not the typical hospital stuff, but I promise you, the remedies we use here will help you heal way faster than what you'd get there," she said, her expression steady and reassuring.Once everyone was patched up, we sat by a cosy bonfire, enjoying drinks. The warmth wrapped around us as we chatted quietly, trying not to disturb those who had drifted off to sleep."This is surprising, isn't it?""Yea—sorry?""You watched us attack Alpha Ethan's packhouse, causing chaos and taking out some Warriors. But we just chilled by the campfire, looking all good, even after what went down."I nodded slightly, feeling what was being said."Yeah, I get it. You probably think we're all just a bunch of weirdos with dreams about things we shouldn't be fighting over since we're Rogue Wolves with no la

Ethan P.O.VI let out a painful groan as a team of doctors stitched up the wound on my chest. This scar is a reminder of that damn Rogue.I'm pretty amazed by what they've accomplished. Every time they've attacked here, they've never resorted to weapons like I did to take them down. But this time, they've got a clear target.And it's someone I never expected them to go after—the person I just brought into this Pack two days ago. Is the word about my Luna spreading that quickly? "Do you need anything else, Alpha?" Dr. Pack asked after stitching up all my wounds and cleaning the blood off me.The pain was still there, but I knew it wasn't from the wolfsbane. If they had used that as poison, they would have been the ones in trouble first."No, but if you have any medicine, I'd like to take it. I want to heal up quicker.""Absolutely, Alpha."The doctor pulled out some medicine wrapped in a few small paper packets. After explaining when I should take them, he and his assistant quickly le

Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 69. Breakfast & Nausea
Ethan's P.O.VJust like yesterday, Claire was nowhere to be seen at the dining table. I wanted to order someone to go fetch her, but with Lucy here, I couldn’t risk it. After everything I discussed with Andara Spectra last night, it felt safer to keep Claire far away from Lucy. “You remember we still have that meeting with Lady Apike, the wolf noble from the Lycan clan, right?” Lucy suddenly broke the silence during our meal. “I know. I’ll—” “She wants to meet your ‘real’ Luna. The one chosen by the Moon Goddess.” Lucy cut me off, her words making my chest tighten in shock. Wait, meet my real Luna? Was she implying I had to bring Claire to this meeting? “Why would I do that? There’s no reason for it.” I refused with a single sentence, hoping she wouldn’t speak again or say things like this. Because honestly, the more I heard, the more uncomfortable I felt.Right. I couldn’t possibly bring Claire. That meeting might spell trouble for her—especially for the child she’s carrying.
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 68. Jealousy & Rage
Ethan’s POV“What did you say? What are you getting at?” I asked them fow what they saying.Andara smiled. There was nothing sinister in her manner or speech. I recognized that, but hearing her speak about things I didn't understand, why should I trust her?“You don't have to believe me, Alpha. However, you should know that Lady Halle's mental state worsens day by day. When she came to me today, there was no happiness on her face. Even when I told her she was pregnant, it was as if she wanted to terminate the child—”I was furious, but as I moved toward Andara to throttle her, Oscar stepped between us, preventing me from doing anything.“What do you mean by ‘terminate’?” I growled. I demanded answers for all the words they said to me.“A Luna like Lady Halle wouldn't think to argue with your fiancée, Lady Torrance, who is the daughter of an Alpha from the Western territories. I don't recommend such a course either, but if Lady Torrance learns of this before you do, the worst-case scen
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 67. Coming Home & News
Ethan’s POVSince my return, I still haven’t seen Claire or the others. Even the warriors I assigned to protect her are nowhere in sight. Are they really okay? No. I’m worried. Ever since Lucy came back, something feels off. She’s way more sensitive than before—edgy even—and has gotten harsher and more arrogant compared to what I remember. Not that I mind her attitude. Honestly, I’ve been worse, especially when it comes to how she’s been treating Claire. One thing’s crystal clear: Lucy’s acting this way because she wants Claire gone from the packhouse. It’s obvious. No woman wants another woman hanging around her man. Even though Lucy isn’t my Luna, we’ve been together long enough for her to know me better than most—though maybe not all the way to my core. Back from work, I’m on the back balcony, staring at the massive yard and the door leading to the forest beyond. I used to leave that area unguarded. But after Claire was kidnapped, I couldn’t afford to make that mistake ag

Claire's P.O.V"Why do you seem much gloomier than the last time we met, Lady Halle?" Andara Spencer handed me a cup of warm tea.It was the same question that had been asked by several people I had met recently. Am I really that gloomy? Do I really show my jealousy so clearly on my face for everyone to see?I shook my head. "I've just been feeling a bit more tired than usual lately," I replied."Oh, have you consulted with a doctor at the mansion?" This time Andara looked worried.The woman who indirectly became the mediator and leader of the Rogue Wolves in this neutral forest area had openly shown her concern for me since we first met, when I was kidnapped to this place.I had heard that Andara was a former Elder who held power in The Moon Fall Pack, but unable to endure the cruelty of Christopher Gale, the false Alpha, Andara fled and eventually joined the Rogue Wolves."Lady Halle prefers to rest in her room rather than call a doctor. And she always insists that she is fine," Oct
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 65. Smell & The Aroma
Ethan's P.O.VI saw her walking away with Danny. She looked quite thin compared to the last time I saw her. I'm not sure if she lost a lot of weight or not. The servants also said she’s been eating too little lately—much less than when we were in the Philippines.I still remember how she bought so much food that it drained quite a bit of my savings account just to fill her belly during those days in the Philippines."Ethan, you remember our meeting with Sir Huggess is in an hour, right? Why don’t we hurry?" Lucy's voice shattered my focus.I quickly shifted my gaze from Claire. I knew Lucy would be furious if she realized I was being too excessive."I get it. What about the preparations?" I asked to her."My assistant will handle what Danny was supposed to do."Ah, holy crap! I should’ve just sent Gilbert along with the strongest Warriors to guard Claire and that old woman in the forest, not Danny, so I wouldn’t make Lucy this angry."Danny has far better skills than Gilbert. If the R
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 64. Worry & Stare
Claire's P.O.VIt's been a week since I last talked to Chen Lien. Ever since our fight, everything has felt awkward. It's as if I'm trying to cover up my own anger, and then I take it out on someone else.It's really embarrassing, maybe I should apologize to him when we meet again later.However, since that day I haven't seen Chen Lien, I have been spending more time in my room, and even my appetite has gotten worse since returning from the Philippines. Almost no food can go into my mouth, and everything I smell seems really bad, even though it looks delicious."This is horrible, how am I supposed to get my revenge on Christopher Gale if I can't even get food into my body?" I mumbled while lying down and hugging my bolster pillow.The smell of this mattress has completely become my own, nothing left. I had hoped there would be some of Ethan's scent left, but there's absolutely nothing I can smell from Ethan.Oh, my God... What was I thinking? Hasn't Ethan not come here ever since Lucy
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 63 Questions & Rage
Claire's P.O.V"Are you alone waiting for dawn in this place, my lady?"Chen Lien startled me as I sat and looked at the forest, which seemed much calmer than my mind. I'd heard he had returned from work but hadn't seen him at the dining table. So I chose to wait for him here instead of asking Ethan.I don't know why, but I felt he would come if I waited, as if he knew I was thinking about him and hoped to chat with him."What took you so long?" I said, making him jump."Were you waiting for me?""Of course, I hoped to talk to you about a few things, but you took so long I forgot what I wanted to say.""Oh, woe is me for not arriving sooner. Should I turn back time?"I chuckled. "Why would you want to turn back time? It wouldn't be fun because you wouldn't get the same surprise after I told you I forgot what to say.""Oh, crap! I'd still have to pretend to be surprised."I couldn't stop laughing. It felt like I was chatting with my best friend, even though Chen Lien was merely Ethan R
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 62. Truth & Save
62. Truth & SaveEthan P.O.VShe eats very little. Since we returned from the Philippines, she seems much quieter than before. Is it because she's still thinking about what I said, about explaining everything to her after a week?Honestly, I didn't want to say this, but seeing her like this, I feel like I have no choice. But of all the things I've learned, one thing still baffles me—the bodies of the orphans and the nuns.Because, of all the bodies that should have been there, only Sister Maria's remained. She was the nun killed by the Shadow Warrior back then. Nothing else was left."What are you thinking about?" Chen Lien snapped me out of my reverie. "Has something happened?""It's about Claire," I said."What's wrong with her now?" he looked worried.Of course, Chen Lien would be worried. The last time I remember, he declared that he liked Claire right in front of me. And because of that, he never strayed too far from this place, just to make sure Claire was still okay in my hands
Depth Rough: She Was The Unwanted Luna 61. MEMORY & TEARS
Claire's P.O.VAfter getting back from the Philippines, I barely saw Ethan. He was mostly buried in work, though he didn’t need to travel overseas like before. Danny mentioned that his duties in the Pack were keeping him busy enough, so no more far-flung trips.Naturally, Danny stuck to me like glue, always around as if Ethan had ordered him not to leave me alone for a second.Besides that, I hardly ever saw Lucy Torrance hanging around the packhouse. No clue what went down with them, but since we returned, things seemed a bit off between Ethan and Lucy."Anything else you need, Lady Halle?" Danny asked, ever so polite.What did I just hear? It's quite unpleasant, although I can't outright refuse, but to be honest I don't have much confidence in myself to get all these things full of manners."You gotta stop treating me like that," I said to him. "Just treat me like you did when I first arrived. No need to be so formal with me, and don’t make me feel like I deserve special treatment."
