Chapter 45Luke's POV"Harvey!" I called out loudly.Hearing his name being called by me, my beta quickly came to me. He bowed to me."What did the alpha call me?" asked Harvey, who was still half bowed."Beta, take this omega girl to the healer center! Make sure she's okay!" my shout echoed throughout the palace, pointing at the unconscious servant Ovy."Yes, alpha. I'll do as you say." Harvey nodded obediently.After finding Ovy's maid unconscious in the room, as well as Rebecca and Lucas who had escaped from the room, made me completely panic. I also then called Beta Harvey and asked him to take the maid Ovy to the healer center. With a look full of worry, Harvey immediately took action and lifted Ovy's body, which looked very limp.I walked quickly to the outside of the palace, while using my mind link to communicate with Gamma."Gamma, come with me now!" I ordered."Yes, alpha!"A
Chapter 46 Rebecca's POV The night was quiet, there was only the sound of Night animals singing in my ears. The atmosphere around the palace was also quiet because the night was very late and the residents of the palace must have fallen asleep in their sweet dreams. That night, after I finally failed to escape from Luke, as I was caught again by him, Lucas and I sat on the balcony of our room. We looked up at the dark, starless night sky. It was pitch black, and there was no sign of the moon Gooddes appearing to bless us. "The sky is so dark, Mom," said Lucas, who had been sitting next to me. "Yes, dear. But you mustn't be afraid of the darkness. An heir must be brave and must not be afraid of anything," I advised Lucas. "Of course, I'm not afraid, Mom. I dare anything," he replied proudly. I smiled happily at that. Immediately I hugged my son tightly, feeling his calm heartbeat against my chest. Suddenly this cold night reminded me of my childhood when I was with my parents.
Chapter 47Rebecca's POV Luke and I slipped between the shadows of the trees, curiosity burning in our chests. In the distance, we could faintly see a man talking to a black-robed figure.The silence of the night was only broken by the sound of the wind rustling the leaves and night animals calling out. We were careful not to be spotted, trying to keep our steps quiet."Who are they, Luna?" asked Luke in a barely audible whisper."I don't know what her name is, Alpha. Because I only remember her face. But clearly, she's a member of our pack," I replied.Earlier I did get a glimpse of the man's face and it seemed like he was from the Winterblood pack. Meanwhile, Luke didn't get the same chance. He couldn't see the man's face at all."Let's investigate," said Luke, who was now moving quickly before I could stop him."Wait, alpha!" I tried to warn him, but it was too late.Crack!Luke kept moving forward and accidentally stepped on a dry branch that cracked under his foot. The sound bro
Chapter 48Rebecca's POV"Luke, what do you want to do?" I asked in a trembling voice, as my heartbeat was also racing.How could I not?Right now I felt Luke's face very close to mine. His breath felt so warm against my cheek, and I could feel the slight tremor in his voice.He brought his lips closer to mine. The handsome man presses me lightly, and he's about to kiss me, but his movements are suddenly halted as he stares at my neck. His eyes squinted, tracing my skin as if searching for something missing. "You haven't gotten any marking from me, Rebecca," he said in a low voice.It's true, in all the time I've been his tender, we've never gone that far. Lucas' birth alone was the result of an accidental relationship. Coupled with me being gone for so many years, Luke and I never had that intimate relationship again."Because maybe I'm just not your match of the century. After all, I'm just an omega girl who was chosen to be Luna by order of the Elder. And not because of your wishe
Chapter 49Rebecca's POV "Lucas, what do you mean, son? Your daddy is fine and will be home tonight?" I repeated what Lucas had said because I still didn't understand what my son meant."Yes, mom." Lucas nodded innocently.I was speechless with his answer. I didn't know how he knew that. Because a little boy like Lucas shouldn't know anything about a situation like this. But somehow, I felt that there was confidence in his voice that finally made me calm down a little."Lucas, how did you know that your Daddy will be home tonight?" I asked, intrigued by Lucas' words."It's a secret, Mom," Lucas replied with a funny look on his face, making him look even more adorable."Hmm, okay then." I smiled a little.Even though anxiety and big questions were still hanging over my mind, I hoped that what Lucas said was true and that Luke would be back tonight.Before I knew it, it was dusk. The sun was sinking into the western horizon. Day turns to night, which is the werewolf's favorite time of
Chapter 50 Luke's POV "Ah, that hurts." I stretched my body slowly, trying to adjust to the pain that attacked every inch of my body. This morning I woke up with a body that felt crushed. My bones felt like they were no longer supporting my body, and the tendons seemed to be pulled from the joints. The scars of my fight in the forest last night are still very real. The wounds on my hands from my enemy's claws and bites still stung. My face was covered in scratches, even though the blood had stopped flowing. This body was already decorated with wounds and the pain was still overwhelming. "Even though I'm in pain, I have to stay strong to protect my son and wife. I must survive for Lucas and Rebecca," I said to myself. I tried to get up and get out of bed, but my intention was immediately stopped when I felt two hands hugging me tightly. My eyes reflexively glanced and looked at the two hands that seemed to be sincerely hugging me. One was a small hand, and the other was a delica
Chapter 51REBECCA'S POV"Mommy!" I cried out in a hysterical cry as if my whole body felt stiff.How could I not?I saw my beautiful mother lying lifelessly on the floor of the half-burnt house, while my father could only stare at his wife with sad eyes. The wound on his head continued to ooze blood and my favorite man couldn't even lift a hand.A moment later someone broke the front door of the house down. Several people entered and one of them-the only woman, took a blanket from the sofa and wrapped my tiny body."They're dead!" shouted a man squatting near my parents.The woman hugged my small body before running out of there, followed by the three men. They ran into the dark forest that was swallowed by the night.***"Luna!"Someone's touch on my shoulder now woke me up, I gasped in shock. It was just a dream. A nightmare that had been disturbing my peaceful sleep lately. I immediately sat up straight. I had just overslept while looking after Luke who was lying weakly on Doctor
Chapter 52Rebecca's POV "The necklace is ...." I couldn't stop my mouth from saying that. "Why is that necklace so similar to ....?" I was stunned.Instantly, dozens of questions flooded my mind. But, my mind had no stock of answers. Finally, I decided to take the necklace and bring it to the palace.The air was quite cool when I walked to my room. And a few meters before I reach my room, I hear the sound of Luke and Lukas laughing.Luke was already doing better, and that's why he asked to be kept in his room so he could always see Lucas and me.I couldn't wait to see their happiness that echoed here. Then, I quickened my pace.A few steps later, I'm standing in the doorway. And from here, I saw Luke who was trying to take a toy from Luke's hand. However, he repeatedly toyed with him by pushing the toy away as soon as Luke's hand reached for it.But Lukas wasn't angry about it at all, his laughter only grew louder when he failed to get the toy from Luke's hand."Catch this!
