Chapter 7 Chapter 7 Simon laughed coldly .

Dream on ! Shes mine .

The only way youll take her is over my dead body .

With those words , the two sides clashed again .

This would only end with both sides badly hurt the last thing I wanted .

I grabbed a guards knife and held it to my own throat , shouting : Stop ! Simon turned , his eyes bulging with terror : Yara , thats dangerous .

Put the knife down .

I pushed the blade closer : Simon , let us go , or youll only be taking my corpse back with you .

Simons teeth nearly cracked from clenching so hard , his voice filled with reluctance : Yara , I found you first .

You promised youd never leave me .

I changed my mind .

What did you say ? Simon couldnt believe what he was hearing .

The girl who had once looked at him with adoration , who had promised never to leave his side , was now saying she had changed her mind .

Looking directly into his eyes , I emphasized each word : I said , I changed my mind .

Simon , Im grateful you saved my life as a child , but Ive repaid that debt tenfold , risking my life for you countless times .

Were even now .

No ! Simon pointed angrily at Liam : Its because of him , isnt it ? Youve fallen for him ? Love Cu Beeper Chapter 7 Youve barely known him .

Do you really understand who he is or what kind of wolf he is ? This was the second time Simon had asked me this question .

I shook my head : Simon , whats between us has nothing to do with anyone else .

I don back simply because … I dont love you anymore .

From the day I left , I never intended to return .

That place held nothing but pain and torment for me .

He seemed unprepared for this answer .

want to go The blade cut into my skin , drawing blood , but I felt nothing : Let me go , or take my corpse back with you .

Choose .

Hearing this , Simon stumbled backward .

He stared at me silently , then suddenly laughed a laugh filled with desolation and grief .

After a long while , he lowered his head , seeming to age a decade in an instant , his voice hoarse beyond recognition .

Let them … go .

I hadnt expected Simon would actually let us leave .

Liam urgently pulled me onto his embrace .

We ran for what seemed like hours until we reached a lakeside , where he tenderly bandaged my neck , scolding me for being too reckless .

I looked at him : Liam , I dont deserve your kindness Liam flicked my forehead playfully .

Silly wolf , no one deserves it more than you .

The pain made me wince , but something compelled me to ask : Liam , do you have feelings for me ? His hand paused in applying the bandage , his ears turning red , but his eyes met mine with 13:01 Chapter 7 unwavering certainty .

Yes , Yara .

I love you .

I want you to be my Luna .

I hadnt expected such directness .

My voice cracked : Liam , weve known each other less than a year , and besides , Simon and I … Youre wrong .

Before I could finish , Liam interrupted me .

Yara .

Ive known you much longer than you realize .

What do you mean ? I looked at him in confusion , unable to recall meeting him before .

Until he said : When I was ten , I accompanied a diplomatic envoy to Silver Ridge .

I got lost and met a little she wolf crying by herself .

She showed me the way back .

With his reminder , the memory surfaced .

I had made a mistake and been punished by Simon , hiding away to cry when a young boy squatted beside me and offered me a piece of candy .

Incredibly , that boy had been Liam , and he had recognized me instantly when we met again .

Seeing my recognition , Liam smiled gently : Though you can be stubborn and overthink things sometimes , I find you wonderful in every way .

Losing you was Simons greatest mistake .

Yara , give me a chance , will you ? I promise to treat you well I felt something stir within me , wanting to accept , but thoughts of my past with Simon held me back .

I told Liam everything honestly , holding nothing back To my surprise , Liam seemed relieved : So thats what was bothering you ? Let me tell you a story 115 Chapter 7 I nodded .

Do you think my mother was at fault ? I shook my head .

He pulled me into a gentle embrace : Similarly , what happened between you and Simon wasnt your fault .

You dont need to feel unworthy because of it .

Liam was right .

I had simply loved the wrong person at the wrong time .

I couldnt change the past , but I could try for a different future , But , instead of joining another pack and to be someones Luna , I really want to do something I longer for all the time .

Liam , I dont want to be a killer anymore , I want to be a doctor who can save other peoples lives .

I will always wait for you .

Until you to be My Luna .

That day , Simon sent a gift through a messenger .

When I opened it , I found the dagger he had once given me .
