The Heartless Alpha’s Beloved Luna (Avery and Gideon) novel Chapter 376

Chapter 376

Avery’s POV

Later that day, the doctor discharged me from the hospital, and I was allowed to go home.

It was strange, thinking of Evergreen pack as “home”, but it was admittedly a relief to step inside the increasingly familiar walls of the Alpha house.

Once I was settled, though, I made up my mind.

Something needed to be done if I was going to allow Gideon to come around more. I needed to find a way to protect not only myself, but also Bjorn.

The idea I’d had swirling around my mind for a while now was a risky one, but it felt necessary. If Gideon truly thought that Bjorn and I were fully bound to another man, then he wouldn’t try to rip us away. (15

At least, that was what I told myself.

I found Sebastian in his office and explained my thoughts to him. He listened the entire time, and when I was finished, he nodded slowly, tenting his fingers in his lap.

“Are you sure about this?” he asked. “A relationship contract may make things messier than they already are. Besides, I’ve already given you my word.”

I nodded shortly. “I know you have, and I’m aware of the risks. Which is precisely why I want the contract, to make sure that we’re all getting the best out of it.” I met his gaze. “I feel awful, Sebastian. You’ve done so much for me, and I’ve put you right in Gideon’s crosshairs because of it.”

Sebastian’s face softened. “You don’t have to sign a contract to make up for it, Avery. I did it because I want to.”

I couldn’t fully comprehend that. To think that someone in the packs actually wanted to help me, just because they wanted to, and not for their own gain… It went directly against the world I remembered here. Maybe Sebastian was different after all.
