Luna wants nothing novel

Chapter 4 Margaret's POV [Margaret, sorry. Things are taking longer than expected. Dinner might need to be delayed.] [Also, you don't need to prepare the birthday cake for Isla and Finley. Isla says Finley won't eat cake made by anyone else. Every year he only eats the one she bakes herself.] [I don't want you to waste the effort and end up disappointed.] The screen blurred before my eyes, the words dancing like mocking demons. A moment later, as if he feared I was upset, two more messages appeared. [Don't overthink it. Isla said she won't fight you over Finley. Feelings take time to build.

Let's take this slowly, okay?] Slowly? There was nothing left to take slowly. After being disappointed so many times, I no longer dared hope for anything. The truth was, Finley and I weren't strangers. When he was only a few months old, Isla often visited the Alpha estate, carrying him along under the guise of being my "good friend." Sometimes I happened to run into them. Back then, little Finley would look at me with innocent, bright smiles. But as he grew older, everything changed. Every visit to the Alpha villa meant he would shrink away from me, eyes filled with fear. Then hatred.

Until the day George finally confessed the truth about Finley's parentage, that he was my pup. I rushed out like someone possessed, desperate to find him. I didn't dare touch him without warning. I approached carefully, bringing toys I knew he liked, offering them gently. But Finley didn't even glance at them. He discarded my offerings as if they were nothing but filth, his gaze reflecting a venom no child should possess. I had never imagined a child not even seven years old could look at someone with that much venom. That much hostility. I completely fell apart in the following days.

I couldn't eat. I couldn't sleep. I tortured myself trying to understand what I had done wrong. George heard how Finley treated me and scolded him harshly. He even sent Isla away for a few days, Chapter 4 2.88% insisting we needed time alone to bond. In front of the important members of Bluebell Pack, Finley behaved politely toward me. But the moment George and Imogen left? His eyes turned cold again. He insulted me viciously, blamed me for keeping his mother away from home. And then he accused me in front of pack members of abusing him.

Of pinching and threatening to throw him out of Bluebell Pack if he didn't call me "Mom." It was such a transparent lie. All anyone needed to do was check the security footage. But then Finley lifted his shirt, revealing his little body covered in bruises, and when he saw me, he shrank into a corner, trembling violently. I couldn't defend myself. It didn't matter what I said. Everyone in Bluebell Pack began whispering, outraged that their Luna was a monster. Isla collapsed into tears while holding Finley, sobbing so hard she nearly fainted. Her voice shook as she pleaded. "Please, Margaret...

he's just a child. Give him some time. I promise I'll teach him to call you 'Mom."" "If you're angry, take it to me. Just don't hurt him anymore. I'm begging you..." Imogen exploded in fury, declaring that I would never be allowed alone with Finley again. George shielded Isla and the child as he glared at me coldly. "Margaret, to compete for attention... you'd raise your hand against your own pup? I'm truly disappointed in you." The disappointment and disgust in his eyes crushed what little strength I had left to speak.

As the gathering dispersed, I saw the small victorious smirk tugging at the corner of Finley's mouth. And that was the exact moment, my heart finally died. I decided to give him what he wanted. Give them all what they wanted. I would sever everything with my own hands, and leave this farce behind. As I thought of all that, the tears I had managed to stop began flowing again, soaking my cheeks. The plane was preparing for takeoff. People around me whispered about the crying woman in seat 23A. I wiped my face, took out my phone, meaning to touch up my makeup.

But before I could unlock it, a pack-wide financial news alert lit up my screen.
