All Chapters of The Clawless Luna Wants Rejection: Chapter 91 - Chapter 100

The young usher hurried away without acknowledging Storm's polite nod. His steps quickened, and he received the greetings of the young wolves with indifference. His gaze didn't leave young Vione for a second. So, he didn't miss the moment when Lewis just walked by, ignoring young Vione.The uncomfortable pounding in young Usher's heart turned into a burning sensation. His chest felt hot. He was sure that Lewis was one of those who looked down on young Vione after the coming-of-age ceremony.The young Usher and Lewis crossed paths. Lewis wanted to greet him, but he didn't give him the chance. He walked quickly, then left the party hall.Young Usher's eyes wandered. At first, he thought young Vione was on the terrace, but she wasn't there. So, he was puzzled."Are you looking for Vione?"The young usher was startled. He turned to find a maid approaching with a tray of drinks. "O-oh, it's you," he murmured in a slightly stuttering voice. He took a deep breath to calm himself. Then he imm

One thing Usher noticed in the brief moment between unconsciousness and consciousness was the gentle grip that held his fingers. With it came the soft exhalation of someone whose scent was all too familiar, Vione's scent."Usher? Are you awake?"A word spun through Usher's mind. Then came the questions that accompanied it. Awake? Have I fainted?Because the last thing Usher remembered was being sucked back into the time portal. After that, everything was dark, and fainting seemed like the most plausible thing that could have happened to him. Then another question came up. What time am I in?That was the most important thing right now. Especially since Usher was sure that it was Vione who had discovered his existence after he had left the time portal."Usher, can you hear me? Are you—"Usher groaned and felt the vibrations spreading through his chest. His eyelids felt incredibly heavy, as if they wouldn't allow him to fully wake up. But he didn't give up and kept trying.Vione's face w

Vione closed her eyes. She could feel Usher's presence. There were no footsteps or other sounds, but her intuition never failed to detect Usher's presence, just like now.A moment later, a gentle touch landed on Vione's shoulder. Her breath caught in her chest, and her body tensed instantly. Then she felt the touch turn into a gentle stroke, accompanied by Usher's voice calling her name."Vione."Vione flinched. She let Usher's fingers slip from her shoulder. She recoiled. "Say nothing, Usher. I will never let you go through the time portal again."But Usher didn't give up. He grabbed Vione's wrist. He held on to Vione and would not let go.Vione struggled. "Usher.""Please, Vione," Usher pleaded insistently. He pulled Vione into his embrace. "Please, listen to me."Vione ignored Usher's plea. Instead, she continued to try to break free. She pressed against Usher's chest with both hands, but her efforts were in vain. Usher didn't budge."This is the only way I have, Vione. So please.

At that moment, a fleeting sense of relief filled Usher's mind. It seemed he had returned to the right moment, though if he could ask, he would surely want to go back even further. At least to a time before everything had become so tumultuous, before he and The Past Vione had their argument."You really have no heart, Usher."The voice of The Past Vione brought Usher back to the present just in time. Fortunately, he was able to assess the situation quickly. He remembered the incident vividly. The Past Vione had left the palace hall immediately after he had strangled her, right after she had insulted him as a heartless man.Usher quickly rose to his feet. With a lingering pain in his chest, he gripped the wall. His eyes scanned the area with growing panic. For the footsteps of The Past Vione were getting closer.Usher's priority now was to hide as best he could. He couldn't afford to be caught, neither by himself, nor by The Past Vione, nor by the inhabitants of the palace. So, he hurr

If he followed his heart's desire, Usher would undoubtedly emerge from his hiding place and immediately comfort The Past Vione. He would wipe away the tears that stained The Past Vione's cheeks, then kiss her eyes. He would do anything, even if he had to get down on his knees, as long as it would erase all the grief he had caused The Past Vione.But a shred of reason held Usher back. His fingers clenched the door handle as tightly as his eyes were shut. He reproached himself as he realized how powerless he was in the current situation. Waves of regret washed over him, engulfing Usher once again in the unspeakable void of words. He was like a prisoner trapped in a labyrinth of complex emotions, caught between the desire to change the past immediately and the awareness of a reality that might be unavoidable. His soul rebelled, his heart ached, but he continued to try to resist the emotional urges that overcame him.Usher knew he could not act rashly. While he desperately wanted to erase
