Semua Bab Bound by the Moon, Rejected by the Alpha : Bab 71 - Bab 80

Lila's POV I chuckled at the frown on Dominic's face. His mom held my hands, happily swinging them, beaming with smiles like a mother who just found her long-lost daughter.“I will stay too.” Dominic suddenly said. His mom and I stared at him, speechless.I for sure never expected him to say that.“I want to be where Lila is.” He added, making me blush in embarrassment. We had only been this close for a day, yet he's starting to get clingy.“Didn't you say you had important things to do?” His mom asked, her gaze fixed on him as if trying to figure out what was going through his head.He cleared his throat awkwardly and spoke “They can wait.”“No, you emphasized the importance; you need to go and take care of your pack.” Eve countered. Dominic was speechless for a moment. Not sure how to respond, he didn't expect his mother, who was usually soft, to suddenly become rigid.“I need to be where she is to keep her safe, she can't be safe outside the pack.” Dominic insisted. Was he just

Lila's POV I followed Dominic's mother to the kitchen to make Dinner. It was the best experience of my life, something I had never done with Juliet.Having to stand side by side with this sweet woman as she cooked with great love and happiness. I occasionally stole glances at her, admiring her beauty at such an age.I wondered if I would be as beautiful when I reached that age or if I would be so ugly that even people who didn't know me wouldn't hesitate before calling me an old witch.“I can feel your eyes all over me.” She said as she rolled the dough.I bit my lower lip in shame, grinning like an idiot. I had been caught.“I just think you're amazing. I want to be like you.” I said honestly.“Aww,” she cooed. “You'll do just great, believe me,” she assured me with a heart-melting smile.“You think so?” I asked, unsure of the possibility of that happening.“I know so.” She responded.I decided not to bother her with my silly problems. I silently washed the vegetables and started to

Lila's POV I felt excruciating pain as the object pierced my skin, but I didn't care about the pain. “Lila!” Dominic exclaimed.I didn't respond to him.If I hadn't come here, these people would've been safe in their cabin enjoying their retirement.I dropped to my knees beside Eve and held out my hand.“What are you doing?” Jonathan asked.“ I won't let her die. Not under my watch!” I said, without sparing him a glance.Morinda said an elemental’s power could heal broken things, I hope this works.“Help me take the dagger out,” I said to Brian.He looked at me, unsure whether to comply, then at Leo, who nodded in approval.“Once I take this out, there's no going back. Are you ready?” He asked me.“Yes,” I said without hesitation.Slowly, he pulled out the dagger, making Eve whimper weakly. “Sorry,” her whimpers pierced through my heart and I don't think I can ever heal from this.I'm not losing another mother to death. I won't allow that to happen. Blood gushed from the wound, sc

Morgana's POV Victor's plan to spread rumors against Lila and my mysterious fire worked hand in hand to create a new avenue for us to carefully utilize.Sophia deserved her death, she earned it. She couldn't follow simple instructions. None of these would have happened if she had controlled her greed even for a moment.She knew she had to die eventually, she was not a saint.As long as Morinda was still with Dominic, I couldn't be totally relaxed; I had to get rid of her. But it's impossible to penetrate Blackwood, especially in that Packhouse.I'll have to think of a way to lure her out of Dominic's protection. Then I can finally remove her from the game and focus on the main characters.Two weeks ago, Victor sent that little brat of his away from the pack to Dominic's school. At least I had fewer eyes watching me. She would've been my next target if she had stayed even a little longer. The brat was too spoiled.Luther texted Victor yesterday evening, informing him that Dominic had

Dominic's POV I watched as she slept peacefully. It was 12 hours already and she was yet to wake up. Morinda assured me that she needed the rest, so no need to worry.But I couldn't leave her side, I was scared something might happen if I looked away for a split second.I had already moved her to my room the moment our bonding was complete. Brian came over to treat her wounds but he didn't put a bandage over it as it would only suffocate the wound. Lauren also mentioned that once she was awake, she could heal by herself but now her powers were taking the time to spread across every nerve in her body.Would she be mad if she found out what I had done?What if she woke up as a changed person? All these thoughts scared me.My mother is fine now, she and my father came to see her a while ago. They complained that I didn't inform them when everything happened, but in truth, what could they have done rather than increase the worry?I didn't want to bother them plus my mother needed the
