Lucien’s POV

When the call first came through. I almost laughed.

A Luna from another pack reaching out to me for help? It was a bold and reckless move, especially since I was notorious for being a cold, emotionless monster who could kill without remorse-yet this woman dared to reach out to me for help, knowing full well I might reject her.

It amused me.

What amused me even more was the way she talked to me over the phone. She was sharp, frustrated, and furious-clearly fighting to contain her emotions. Even if I refused to help her, I could tell she would find another way to solve her problem.

That’s how I viewed her, and I became curious about what this woman looked like and who she really was.

I leaned back in my chair as she spoke, letting her words wash over me as she tried to convince me why I should help her. At the time, I hung up the phone, just to see what she would do next.

Would she beg me?

But she proved me wrong. She laid out her strong points and explained why I should help her.

Since I had been bored lately-with no other packs daring to cause trouble for mine after I killed those who’d tried-I decided I might as well oversee the situation and see what kind of amusement this woman could provide.

When I saw her in person, I expected a broken woman-a weeping wreck begging desperately to win back her cheating husband, or someone who’d already lost her soul. But she was nothing like that. She stood tall, her chin high and her eyes steady, even though she was exhausted from recent events. She still carried herself with the grace and confidence she deserved.

That was the first crack in my indifference.

I told myself I was only here for my own entertainment, for amusement. But the truth was, the more I observed her, the harder it became to look away-to get out of the hole I was digging for myself.

Even when Alexander tried to win her back, Scarlett didn’t look back or hesitate to cut him off. Even when Faye, the jealous mistress, kept sending trouble her way, she didn’t crumble-she always pushed herself harder to get what she wanted: to dissolve the bond with Alexander.

That made me even more curious about her. I hadn’t respected anyone this quickly before, except her.

Still, I convinced myself this was nothing unusual-after all, among thousands of broken Lunas, she was the first to fight back, the first to propose bond dissolution and persist through so much to get it approved.

I thought to myself that I wouldn’t interfere. That I would just watch how she handled all this, because I respected her. Because I knew she wanted to do this on her own-even as she reached out for help if she was about to drown.

When I handed her that contract-the one binding her as my Luna-I told myself it was all calolated on my part.

Calculated, my ass.

How foolish I had been.

One year? I should have demanded a lifetime.

Because the more time I spent with her, the more I realized I couldn’t lie to myself anymore. I’d dug a deeper hole this time, and I couldn’t back out.

I didn’t want to back out, either.

When disaster struck and she stood bloodied, I felt useless. I should have reacted faster. I’d never been this helpless before I couldn’t even protect my own Luna. That made me determined to act behind the scenes, since I knew Scarlett would let that mistress act against her-but how could I watch my beloved Luna being harassed?

Behind her back, I went further. Before her final confrontation, I met with the Supreme Council, hoping to sway them in her favor. But they only chuckled and said Scarlett already had their vote. I still couldn’t allow myself to lower my guard, so I sought people from the Crescent Moon for their help-their words and testimonies carried weight in court.

See her win, watch her finally relax-it made me happy. Her happiness brought me happiness.

But then she was taken away.

I felt my heart stop when she was kidnapped by the butcher. And when I saw how she was about to be violat by Alexander-my vision went black with rage, and I could think only of killing him, killing him right there. But unfortunately, I only made him limp since Scarlett stopped me.

I even acted behind the scenes and didn’t tell her that I’d tortured Alexander mentally to the point that his mania worsen With Faye it was the same-she quickly gained the reputation of a madwoman.

She introduced herself as Natasha and, with a laugh, gestured down a path veiled in choking mist. “The Dark Moon lies ahead. Walk straight and if you withstand the miasma, you’ll get there-probably in a week.”

“Do you think I care?”

She chuckled. “Then I wish you luck. You’re different from the other Betas and Alphas I’ve met. I hope you won’t disappoint me.”

I watched her disappear into the mist.

Though I knew this would be a torturous journey, I didn’t care. I missed her so much, I couldn’t wait to see her-to kiss her, to hold her, to be with her.

The path stretched endlessly before me. The air burned as though I were breathing fire. By the second day, my nose bled freely, crimson stains streaking mouth and chin. On the third, my ears rang until warm blood trickled down my neck.

By the fourth, my eyes wept red. Any ordinary wolf would have collapsed already-or worse, died on the very first day. Even battle-hardened Alphas would have succumbed to toxins that devoured both body and spirit. But I didn’t stop running.

Because somewhere ahead, my beloved Luna was waiting.

By the fifth day, I could barely stand, but by then, the miasma had grown weaker and I sensed the Dark Moon

was near.

My body had gone numb, floating between life and death. If not for my will and the blood in my veins, I would’ve collapsed long before.

I didn’t know how long I stumbled along before the mist finally lifted. Maybe I should have taken seven days, as Natasha had said, but my desperation to find Scarlett shortened it to five.
