Semua Bab The Luna's Second Chance: Bab 71 - Bab 80

Darius's POV Ezra and I climbed the stairs from the basement, stepping into the small room above that serves as the living room, Ezra close the basement door behind us. The air inside was stale and heavy with dust. I moved toward the window, peering out into the darkness of the forest surrounding the small house. The night was still, but I knew it wouldn’t be for long, day will soon break. Ezra leaned against the wall, arms crossed as he studied me. “What’s the next move?” he asked, a strange, faintly eager look flashed in his eyesI turned to face him. “Call the Shadow Team.”“Now that's what I'm talking about.” He grinned widely.“Tell them to regroup and meet us at the north border.” I said, my eyes darkening dangerously.“Also, tell them it’s time we took revenge for our brothers who died at the drop site ambush.” My voice hardened. Ezra’s expression hardened as well. He gave me a sharp nod and pulled out his phone.“And,” I added, “mind-link the warriors at the north border.

Aurora’s Pov I replied to Rachel's text immediately. I told her I was free after my interview. I had no plans except to volunteer and probably bury my head in loads of work. Rachel text popped again on my phone screen.“Great! Let’s meet at the café near Northshore University Hospital afterwards.”Instead of going back to the study room, I settled into the chair in the corner of my room. I opened the journal app on my phone and began to put down events of my past life that were significant. The memories came flooding back, and I realized that this present life had taken a different path because of the choices I'd made. I needed to capture these moments, no matter how painful, to ensure I didn't lose sight of the details.As I reflected on the events, tears welled up in my eyes. I longed to let go but the weight of what happened to Caleb has cut deep into my heart. I would never forgive myself for what happened to him. Caleb is the reason why I can't back down.How I wished I could

Aurora's POV I kept staring at the message reflecting on my phone screen like it held the power to throw my whole world off balance.“I’m in your pack to see you. Meet me at the Moe's Diner.”My heart dropped and leapt at the same time as the message echoed in my head over and over again.Why was Alpha Darius here? My fingers hovered over the screen for a few minutes before I locked the phone and tossed it to the bed.“No. I’m not doing this,” I muttered to myself. “Not today.”I was still trying to shake off the irritating feeling Kieran had left behind in my room like ten minutes ago. His touch and his arrogance makes my stomach twisted in disgust. The entitlement dripping from every word he’d said, like my future, my body, my time were only his to control. I was stupid to even think twice about loving him even with all the red flags that were so obvious. Now Darius was here, the man I should be avoiding. The man who gives me all sort of feelings. I feel so drawn to him and some

Aurora's POV It had been weeks since I started my residency, and to be honest, it wasn’t going the exact way I had thought it would go.I had thought I’d be able to juggle everything one way or the other. Stuffs like the pack responsibilities with the Luna's training, my personal revenge, and the intense demands of being a trauma surgery resident. But reality had a funny way of reminding me I wasn’t superhuman. The hours were long, the work was emotionally and physically draining, and the pressure were also suffocating.I had been staying more at the hospital lately, and rarely going to the pack. Most nights I crashed in the call room or caught a few hours of sleep slumped over a chart. My phone barely had any life in it, not that I wanted to answer it anyway. The screen lit up constantly with missed calls from Kieran and Avery. I’d stopped counting after the first ten.When I needed anything, I sent Aria. She was the only one I could send to pick up stuffs for me without being troub

Aurora’s Pov Rachel leaned back, her arms folded across her chest. “Speaking of dinner with Alpha Darius,” her face hardened. “Does Kieran know about the painting already?”I gave a small, humorless laugh. “He hasn’t said anything about it yet and I'm sure he knows about it already.”“He’s probably still investigating who sent it before he makes a move.” I added.I'd informed Rachel about the artwork Alpha Darius had sent to me, the unexpected visit which led to the dinner date proposal. She wasn't a bit shock and all muttered, ‘that arrogant lycan’. I'd also told Rachel I was digging up dirts about Lily some days back. She was shocked and asked why I would do such a thing. I couldn't tell her everything but told her I will tell her why one day but I told her to see it as doing the right thing. “And if he finds out it was Darius?” Rachel asked, pulling me out of my thought.I met Rachel’s gaze. “Then he’ll be very furious.” I smirked as I relished the look of Kieran's face.We sat
