last update Terakhir Diperbarui: 2024-07-25 09:30:36

Connor spent the entire day at that damned meeting with the council, although at all times he thought of Selene and that argument they had before leaving. He imagined everything would be fine, until he arrived at the mansion and found this disaster. It’s clear that no one notified him because it is forbidden to disturb him during those meetings; he even turned off his phone so that no one could interrupt him.

Despite that, everyone in the pack has been ordered to keep Selene away from the border. Everyone knows the reasons—why didn’t anyone stop her? Why weren’t there guardians in that area to prevent her from passing through? Why did she take that exact path and not the other one that leads to the safe zone? There are too many questions swirling in his mind as he ventures into the red forest, as they call it. This is territory claimed by Augusto, his father's bastard brother, the man responsible for the greatest massacre of their pack fifteen years ago. Since then, he and Augusto ha

  • Rebel Luna   Chapter 24. We Had a Deal

    The way back to the mansion doesn’t take as long for Connor as the journey there did; however, for Selene, it is the most uncomfortable minutes of her life. Her headache has worsened due to the position, and her stomach is in knots. She doesn’t struggle at any moment, doesn’t say anything, nor does she ask questions, as she isn’t even fully aware of what has happened, although she hears her companion growl a couple of times along the way. The alpha carries her into the house, and the reproving look from his mother greets him. “I told you she would try to escape, that she would take advantage of the moment we were outside to do so, and you didn’t believe me. She could have gotten us into serious trouble; someone could have died because of her,” Carla growls through the mental link, her face contorted. Connor doesn’t respond, but from his expression, it’s evident that what his mother said affects him more deeply. “Brother…” Clarisse attempts to say something as she follows him, bu

  • Rebel Luna   Chapter 25. Why Is It So Difficult to Achieve?

    Connor feels how she doubles over in pain as tears fill her eyes. Selene stopped physically fighting against him a few minutes ago and now focuses her remaining mental strength and willpower on repelling the connection he is imposing on her. She doesn't want to lose the only thing she has left of Dexter, at least not this way. She knew it would have to happen someday, but she is not ready for this. Connor has no idea of the damage he is causing her.Her eyes are closed, and the pain spreads from her shoulder to the rest of her body. Saya is restless and howling in her mind, not knowing what to do, because she doesn't want to fight against her mate's blood, but she also doesn't believe this is the way.Dexter's last memories flash before Selene's eyes, burning her gaze, breaking her heart into pieces. The pain and the aura Connor is using against her are too much for her. She can see in her mind the beautiful smile of her former mate when they recognized each other that night, he was t

  • Rebel Luna   Chapter 26. Will She Be Okay?

    "I did it for her own good. You know perfectly well what Augusto is capable of. Selene had the damn luck that this time it didn't escalate, but knowing that rogue, I know he has something else planned," Connor replies, still angry."Leaving aside Augusto's intentions, Connor, do you think Selene is going to wake up tomorrow and smile at you? Do you think she will simply forgive you for forcing her to bear your mark?""It wasn't how I planned it, but after she disobeyed me, I had no other choice. How did she expect me to react to what she did? She put herself in danger, she put the pack in danger, I couldn't let this go without doing something about it.""Well, ideally, you should have sat down and talked to her about the attack, about Augusto, about the council's rules, and about the agreement your father left," Jackson says, making Connor tense up. "I don't see Selene as an irrational person, quite the opposite. Besides, we know her parents, both are exceptional people, I'm sure your

  • Rebel Luna   Chapter 27. She Won't Wake Up

    Connor's phone rings loudly in his pants pocket, making him frown as it pulls him from his thoughts. He turns and looks at Selene, who is still in the same position since the morning. It's now afternoon, and he hasn't left her side for a second. He postponed all his activities and asked Jackson for help with the most urgent pack matters so he could stay with her.The doctor returned because the alpha asked her to take a blood sample from Selene to run all the necessary tests. She is due back shortly to report the results.Connor carefully gets up from the bed after leaving a kiss on his mate's forehead and walks to the balcony to take the call. He has no idea who it might be, but they've called a couple of times, so he assumes it must be important and that they will likely keep insisting if he doesn't answer now."Blazeheart?" he hears a deep voice from the other end as he picks up the call."Who's speaking?" Alpha Connor asks, looking at the number on his screen again."Turn on the c

  • Rebel Luna   Chapter 28. Tell Me

    Selene's improvement is immediate with the antidote. The dark spots on her hands and back slowly begin to disappear. Uriel has called a couple of times asking about his granddaughter and has calmed down seeing her improvement.Alpha Connor takes advantage of the night's silence and his lack of sleep and asks Jackson to check the email Katrina had sent him earlier, as he does not want to leave his mate alone.Jackson, accompanied by Alexia, opens the email that Selene's mother had sent to Connor the day he claimed her, surprised to find many attachments—not just the medical documents the alpha mentioned, but also several videos and photos of her from when she was young."Is that why...?" Alexia asks, but the words get stuck in her throat as she watches a specific video that leaves them both deep in thought."Most likely, yes," Jackson replies, still engrossed, his eyes fixed on the playback of a birthday party from several years ago. On top of the birthday cake is a number 4, and sever

    Connor is terribly calm, as Selene can perceive. She can feel him watching her attentively, waiting for a response that perhaps she doesn't want to give at this moment."What's the point now? You didn't care about how I felt before, what difference does it make if I tell you now?""I was forced to act the way I did because you put yourself in danger," Connor tries to reason with her, his voice calm.She is aware of what she did and knew it would have consequences when she decided to leave, but she didn't think he would act the way he did."And of course I care about you, I almost went crazy when they told me they didn't know where you were. I couldn't contact you, no one could," Connor explains his reasons."I didn't put myself in danger on purpose, I was about to come back, I just stayed a few minutes to look at the water," she sobs.Connor stands there looking at her for a moment and then nods slightly before sitting on the couch next to the bed to face her."You disobeyed me.""I w

  • Rebel Luna   Chapter 30. It Will Be an Unforgettable Day

    Selene inspects her naked body in front of the bathroom mirror and feels completely different from the naive and weak young woman who had arrived a few days ago. Something in her has changed and she knows it, even Saya is more active and focused. In these few hours she has been awake, she is learning to deal with some voices in her head from the members of the Redwood Wolves pack. She has no idea why she is hearing them, but she will soon find out. What she cannot ignore is the mark on her shoulder. She gently runs her fingers over that scar and her whole body trembles. She can feel the connection with Connor like never before, she can even hear his heartbeat and feel his heavy breathing from the other side of the door. Because she knows he is there, longing for her, but she won't make it easy for him.She runs her hands over her breasts and notices they are more mature. Her skin is glowing and the muscles of her body are firmer, as if she had exercised excessively. Definitely, Connor

  • Rebel Luna   Chapter 31. Wedding Dress

    "It will be an unforgettable day." That phrase keeps echoing in Selene's head. There was something in Inés's look when she said that which Selene didn't like. Additionally, Connor's insistence on changing the subject made her doubt; definitely, something strange is happening."Don't you like any of the options?" Clarisse asks, looking at Selene with a frown. "If you want, we can change them; there's still time.""Everything is fine, Clarisse. Thanks for your help," she says, realizing that she wasn't paying attention at all."But you haven't looked at anything, nor tried the menu.""I'm sorry, I'm a bit distracted," Selene starts tasting the dishes that Clarisse had the pack's chefs prepare. She immediately dismisses some and approves the ones she likes. "I was thinking about Inés's birthday. Is there something I should know about it?""No," Clarisse clears her throat, and Selene realizes from her reaction that she's lying. "It's just a birthday, don't pay attention to it. Let's get e

  • Rebel Luna   Chapter 97. Bound?

    Another scream echoes through the delivery room at the clinic. Alpha Connor clings to his mate’s hand, unable to bear the pain of seeing her suffer like this. He is desperate, feeling powerless, not knowing what to do to ease her torment."For the goddess’s sake, do something!" he growls threateningly at Dr. Moreira.Fortunately, the doctor is human and accustomed to the explosive temperaments of werewolves, having lived among them since he was a child. He is not intimidated, knowing this is a normal reaction when they see their mates in pain and vulnerability. He has assisted in so many births of this kind that he has lost count—among them, the birth of Selene and her twin, Ethan.With great patience, he checks the patient’s condition while the alpha growls hysterically inside the room."The baby is crowning," the doctor informs Selene, who is utterly exhausted. "When you feel the next contraction, push continuously for as long as I tell you, Luna. This pup will be with us in just a

    "Seleneee, please!!" Rouse rushes into her room, huffing as always. "You were supposed to be in the hall half an hour ago! Are you ever going to get ready on time?"Selene shrugs and tries unsuccessfully to reach her bridal bouquet, which is placed on the couch."Can you stop harassing your sister?" Katrina reprimands her daughter, helping Selene grab what she wants. "With that belly, she can barely move, and you keep rushing her all the time."Rouse rolls her eyes. She is tired of hearing the same thing. Everyone pampers and spoils Selene too much just because she is carrying the first grandchild of the family. She’s just pregnant, not an invalid."For the goddess’ sake, Mom. This is the second time she’s getting married. Her only job was to be ready on time for the ceremony. Nothing else."Selene chuckles at her sister’s frustration."I’m ready now, relax. The groom should always wait for the bride—it’s tradition," Selene replies, looking at her reflection in the mirror once more. S

  • Rebel Luna   Chapter 95. Will You Marry Me?

    Rouse rushes up the stairs, taking them two at a time until she reaches her sister’s room. She pushes the door open abruptly and huffs at the sight before her."You're still not ready?" she asks, despite the obvious evidence in front of her. Selene is sitting on the bed in her robe. "Alpha Connor is already in the living room waiting. Ethan is with him."Selene gets up from the bed, suppressing her excitement upon hearing that he is already there, though her sister notices it anyway. With the patience only she possesses, she grabs the beautiful dress Rouse chose for her and puts it on. Rouse steps forward to help her."I hope Ethan doesn’t do something stupid," Selene mutters, rubbing her pronounced belly as she looks at herself in the mirror. "These past two months have been torture dealing with him. I can’t stand it anymore.""He’s jealous and doesn’t know how to fight against his instincts as both an alpha and a brother. Besides, he still hasn’t forgiven him.""He’ll have to learn.

  • Rebel Luna   Chapter 94. My Decision

    Selene watches her husband lying unconscious in the hospital bed, unaware of everything happening around him. He is in bad shape, and his wounds aren’t healing as quickly as they should for an alpha. She understands the reason perfectly—being apart is affecting his wolf’s strength. Saya is going through the same thing.The doctor was very patient with her, explaining Connor’s real condition more than once. Just as her mother said, he is out of danger now.Carefully, she climbs onto the bed beside him and rests her head on his chest. The soft rhythm of his heartbeat soothes her. She wanted to stay away to heal, but she never intended for this to happen. He is her mate, the father of her pup, and—no matter how much it pains her to admit it—he is the man she loves. Yes, she loves him so much that she would die if anything happened to him.She understands what happened. She isn’t naive; she knows none of them acted with full awareness. But it still hurts. Seeing him with that woman hurt h

    It is almost noon when Katrina, Ragnar, and Ethan arrive at the mansion. None of them say anything upon entering the living room, but their faces make it clear that there is no good news.Ethan climbs the stairs with heavy steps, while Katrina heads straight to the office, and her husband follows. They have barely exchanged a few words in all these hours.Selene, after hearing her brother enter his room, descends the stairs to speak with her parents, but when she hears them arguing, she stops in her tracks, unable to move forward. She has never heard them speak like this before—her mother is the sweetest woman in the world, and her father respects and loves her more than anything. What could have made them this angry?"Let's talk," Ragnar says as he steps into the office after Katrina. He tries to calm the situation, but she is furious."Talk? What could we possibly talk about, Ragnar? About what you did at dawn?""Are you defending him?" Ragnar counters with another question. "After

    Deep in the forest, as dawn begins to break on the horizon, Connor climbs down from the tree, ready to return to the hotel. But the moment he sets foot on the ground, he is surrounded by several wolves—at least twenty of them.The deadly growl of a massive gray wolf fills his ears. A few seconds later, another one, also gray but with white ears and tail, lunges forward, growling menacingly at him. Sorem tries to take control and shift, but Connor doesn’t allow it.He takes two steps back, realizing he is at a clear disadvantage, yet with no intention of running away. He will face this like a man—the man he should have been from the very beginning.“How dare you set foot on my land?!” Ethan shifts in front of him, his voice filled with hatred. “How dare you come here after what you did to my sister?! Are you that eager to die?!”The growls of the other wolves grow louder, preventing Connor from responding. They inch closer, ready to attack, but the first to strike is Remus, Ragnar’s gr

    The days fly by, except for Alpha Connor, who feels every second of the day like a dead weight on his back.Fortunately, the pups are evolving quite well. Doctor Moreira is doing an excellent job alongside Ayanell. The reports they deliver to the alpha every day are encouraging. The treatment is truly effective, and although they will all be latent wolves, they will be able to live normal lives, according to the doctor himself.The pack’s renovations are progressing on time and as planned. Jackson personally oversees all the work, and the results are good. One piece of good news amid so much chaos is that the beta’s mate is expecting their first pup. She’s only a short way into the pregnancy, but everyone is happy for them since they had been trying to conceive for a long time.King Kaelan and Clarisse are leaving for the Highlands this afternoon, and Connor has mixed feelings about it. On one hand, he is pleased to see his sister happier than she has ever been before, but on the othe

  • Rebel Luna   Chapter 90. I Break the Bonds

    That same night, Inés is taken to the place where she will serve her sentence—a remote and sinister location that has remained untouched for far too long. The dungeon's whereabouts are known only to the alphas, passed down from generation to generation. It is guarded by Terrakais, making it far easier to enter than to leave. No prisoner has ever escaped, and those who have dared to try met their end within mere meters, buried beneath mountains of sand and tangled vines. Her face and reaction upon seeing the place are unforgettable. Her screams of desperation and horror are swallowed by the forest. The following morning, the entire pack feels different, as if a new energy has settled over them. They begin moving early. After training, Jackson and the others start organizing the repairs. Clarisse continues helping at the clinic, while Connor immerses himself in the administrative matters he has neglected for far too long. His goal is to have everything cleaned up and in order by t

    "Bring the prisoner!" The alpha’s voice startles Doctor Mirna, who shifts uneasily in her seat. A few minutes later, Inés’s screams echo throughout the place. Her appearance is deplorable—she is dirty, emaciated, and covered in half-healed wounds. "Connor, please!" she cries between sobs. "You don’t have to do this. Please, please, please..." The guards escorting her shove her toward the center. She falls to the ground. "Inés Emberclaw, omega of the Redwood Wolves pack, you are here tonight to be judged for the crimes of criminal association, betrayal of your pack, accessory to murder, and many other offenses." One of the elders stands and addresses her after the alpha gives the order. "How do you plead?" "I’m inno...cent, I swear," she responds between choked sobs. Connor watches her with no trace of emotion on his face. The trial continues for several hours. Nearly all those involved come forward to give their statements.
