This part was missing between 57 and 59. I will have this as a free chapter until I can add this either on Chapter 57 or 59 (which is supposed to be Chapter 58). You should not be paying any coins for this.
Sorry for the mix-up.
CONTINUATION FROM 57: SABOTAGE
I found out that Estelle was Alpha Grant’s illegitimate child. His Luna refused to acknowledge her, so she had never set foot into their territory. But according to my trackers, she was Alpha Grant’s only daughter. All others—Gray and Gabriel, as well as other illegitimate children—were all males. And even if she didn’t carry his last name, the Alpha had provided for her all these years.
I could only conclude he wanted to put his daughter on a pedestal, into a rank, and he saw my condition as the perfect fit.
Estelle was not yet eighteen when I signed the contract.
No wonder he was okay with waiting two years for it to take effect. He wanted her to be of mating age before I claimed her.
And while waiting, he sent someone to sabotage my healing—securing the spot of Luna for Estelle.
I shut my eyes and pulled Amber closer before pressing a kiss on her forehead.
Guilt washed over me.
Estelle was probably eighteen already, and with less than two months before the expiration of the blood contract, I only had a little time left to ponder how I wanted this to go.
“I have other enemies, too. Even Dad has, and maybe those who were not able to take him down saw a chance through me.” I told her, answering her question.
Of course, I was lying. I had no idea how long I could keep up with this. As much as I didn’t want to lie to Amber, she just got out of the misery I had created.
It was not fair to bring her back into that state.
Amber didn’t reply and just wrapped her arms around me. I hugged her tightly until something came to mind.
While they were sabotaging my healing, did they also do something to Amber so she wouldn’t shift yet? So I wouldn’t be tempted to claim her.
My hands coiled into tight fists as I tried to control the rumble in my chest.
Amber’s grandmother shifted before she turned 19. Her mother shifted a month after she turned 18. But Amber was still wolfless at 20.
“Is that Uncle Riley’s car?” Drake said, and it snapped me back to the present.
My forehead creased when I saw Dad’s car, and my head turned to Amber. “Did you call them?”
“No.” She replied.
“The twins probably did,” Drake stated.
He could be right, but why did they come in the middle of the night? They were just two to three hours away, so they could have come earlier.
I didn’t like this. I honestly didn’t want to face them. I still don’t know what I should feel. I was still trying to come to terms with the fact that the person I trusted with my recovery could possibly be an enemy. And perhaps, someone out there had also jeopardised Amber’s wolf. I had no idea where to focus my thoughts at the moment.
Drake assisted in rolling my chair out of the car before Amber pushed me toward the packhouse. All the while, my heart was thudding.
They were either here because Amber and I got back together or because Nadine told them about John. But Amber told me she made Nadine promise not to tell anyone about her suspicions.
I hope it was not the latter, because it would all go down the route as to why someone was trying to sabotage me.
I was not yet ready to tell them about the Blood Contract.
NEXT PART IS CHAPTER 59: MIRACLE.

HEART OF A TRUE LUNA 59:Giving Up Pt1
AMBER.My heart thundered when I heard Alpha Gray’s name. He’s the son of Alpha Grant, the one who forced Zach into the blood contract. “We have him in custody. That’s why we couldn’t come home earlier. The proof of his involvement in Maddox’s illegal activities was enough to warrant an arrest for him.” Uncle Riley explained. “He will be asked to step down as Alpha tomorrow while the case against him is ongoing.”“Who will be the Alpha of Crescent Moon then?” Zach asked, cutting me off from asking if Alpha Grant was also arrested.I heard that Alpha Gray and Maddox were friends, but could it be possible that Alpha Grant was also involved in their activity?Uncle Riley let out a sigh before he answered. “Jake is pushing to have the youngest Newman as the new Alpha. He’s only fifteen but already has a wolf. So it’s not a problem, but their camp seems to want Grant to be Alpha again.”“Alpha Grant as Alpha?” I felt my knees weakening. I didn’t expect that. “Isn’t there a case filed agai

AMBER. He was giving up. But I wasn’t. I would never give up. I walked toward him, locking his seat before sitting on his lap. I flashed him a warm smile as I cupped his cheek. My other hand brushed the hair off his face while my eyes soaked in his handsome features. “I think your facial hair needs shaving…”“Hmmm, you think so? I think all I need is a kiss.” He said before he smiled, but his eyes were still sad.I forced a wide smile to curl on my lips before I leaned forward and kissed him. Only then did his shoulders relax, and he began kissing me back while his hands on my sides slipped inside my shirt and gently rubbed my waist. I would let him relax and enjoy what we had, but I wouldn’t stop finding solutions whether he wanted to or not. I wouldn’t let him step down from being an Alpha. I would not let Alpha Grant win this. ☙☙☙☙☙I woke up naked and alone in bed. It was already almost seven in the morning, and Zach was no longer in the room. I could have slept more, but I ha

AMBER.Three days ago, I thought I would be caught with my phone call to Uncle Jake.Luckily, it was one of the Omegas Zach asked to check on me because he heard movement on the fourth floor. When she didn’t hear any response in his room, she checked into mine. Zach surely had great Alpha hearing if he wanted to, so I needed to be more careful. I didn’t call Uncle Jake after that. However, I sent him a message requesting that he not tell anyone that I was the one who told him, including my own parents. He didn’t reply, and I have not received anything from him, but I was hoping he was doing his own research or had found it already. However, time was rapidly passing. I wanted to know about the contract. All Zach told me was that he was not allowed to claim a wolfless Luna. I was wondering if I had my wolf out, then maybe I would be enough to step up as Alpha. We would be co-Alphas. Seeing Nadine as Alpha gave me this idea. It was better than him stepping down. Of course, I knew I

AMBER.“Does it bother you?”She shook her head. “No, not that part, but I don’t like that after their training, they would go and talk to him. At first, I didn’t notice until they made some nasty remarks to me some days ago, and I started noticing their routine.”“Maybe start showing those females to whom Arlo belongs. Go to him once in a while when you’re here at the training grounds—hug him, or simply smile at him.”“Do you think that’s okay with him?”“I’m positive. I always notice him looking at you. He also checks on you from time to time.”“I noticed that too. I just don’t know how to react around him, especially when those girls are looking.”“Have you told Arlo what you feel about those girls visiting him?” She shook her head. “What should I tell him? He wasn’t doing anything wrong. He talks to them in a civil manner, and he keeps his distance. It’s the one with black hair that keeps moving closer to him.” She explained, sounding defeated. “I don’t think Arlo is interested

BETA ARLO. I was already done with my training for the day when I got a mindlink that I was needed at the Alpha’s office. So I hurriedly finished my shower and changed into my clothes before heading out to pick up my mate. I was delayed for a few minutes by some females who stopped me and asked about some things, but after that, Mindy and I walked home. This might be ordinary for some, but walking home with her at the end of the day’s duties and training would be one of the highlights of my day. This signals that I would spend the rest of my time with or near her until it was time for bed. I used to just let the days go by doing my daily routine, but since she came home with me in this pack, the days have been more pleasant. I had a beautiful female who only needed to smile, and all my tiredness would slip away. The Mindy I was with had changed significantly from the Mindy I had met over two months ago. She was smiling more often and would throw jokes from time to time. She was st

BETA ARLO.“Are you friends with him, Alpha?” Mindy asked in a broken voice.“No. No.” Zach answered. “Why, Mindy?”“He… He…” She began. Even without completing her words, I felt like someone punched me in my chest, and it was getting harder to breathe. I didn’t even realize she had wriggled free from my hold and had run away until I heard a door closing.“Arlo, go after her,” Alpha Jake told me, and I nodded before I exited the office. I felt lost. My tears trickled down my cheeks with the many thoughts running through my head. One thing was certain—she was terrified of him. Maddox was dead, but maybe Mindy’s nightmare was not yet over.I found her in our bedroom. She locked herself in the bathroom, and no matter how I pleaded, she refused to come out. She said she needed time to compose herself and told me I should go back downstairs and apologize on her behalf. But there was no way I would leave her.

6 months after Amber turned 18Amber - 18 years oldZach - 21 years oldZACH.Amber and I. It has always been us. I couldn’t remember exactly when I fell in love with her. She had been around me since I was a pup, and I just woke up one day, and my whole world was already revolving around her. Amber was my ray of sunshine. On my bad days, all I needed to do was look at or talk to her, and she would easily calm the chaos within me. “Jace was an asshole, yet she still loves him,” I told her. We were talking about one of our friends who did something terrible in the past. “She believes in him.” She mumbled. I just shrugged my shoulders.“You can be my asshole, Zach. I will still love you just the same.” Her eyes softened, and her words warmed my entire being.“I can be an asshole to everyone but not to you, Amber. Never to you.” I meant it. I could be cold and blunt to anyone, but never to her. Even when we were younger, she was always the exception. I had appointed myself as her bes

10 DAYS AFTER THE ACCIDENT. AMBER.My head was throbbing, so I remained lying down with my eyes closed. My head pain was getting manageable compared to how I felt when I woke up two days ago. I was told it had been a week since the accident, and before I woke up, I kept drifting in and out of consciousness after I had blood transfusions. I lost too much blood, and without a wolf, my body was as frail as a human.It had been a week, but it felt like it was just a moment ago when I was cramped up in the crashed car and Zach passed out in front of me. I was hysterical while talking to Dad on the phone. He tried to pacify me while getting information. He eventually passed the phone to my twin brother, Cyrus, so he could call people to help us out of here. I was terrified. I kept begging them to save Zach.There was blood everywhere. I could also smell smoke and gas—the idea of the car blowing up was terrifying, like waiting for death to happen. Eventually, I was able to push my car do

AMBER.“What are you both doing here? It’s late.” Zach questioned as soon as we entered the packhouse.Aunt Nadia and Uncle Riley knew we had arrived and were waiting by the main hall. Before they could answer, Winter came rushing to us out of nowhere. My eyes widened in surprise, but my hand moved on its own and locked his chair before gripping the handles tightly. I was sure she would jump at him, and I didn’t want all of us to tumble over.“Zach!” Her face was beaming with happiness as she locked eyes with her brother before throwing her whole weight onto him. I saw Aunt Nadia hold her breath as if she was terrified Zach would not take it positively. But with everything that happened in the last 24 hours, I was more than sure that Zach would not scold his sister. “Aren’t you too hyper, little chipmunk? It’s almost midnight.” Zach snickered as he hugged her tightly, burying her face into his chest. Winter said something, but it was barely audible because Zach’s hug was muffling he

Of course, if I were right, then he was betrayed by the man he trusted for the last two years. “I mindlinked Drake to drive us. I’m not letting you drive.” He said after a while.I nodded my head while I walked toward his desk and picked up all the cream canisters that I could grab.-----ZACH.“There’s a faint trace of wolfsbane in your bloodstream. It’s too faint that I cannot determine when it was absorbed by your body.” Paris explained as we sat in her office. We had been in this hospital for the last two hours. Nadine and Xander, together
