The Broken Luna Unbound: Goodbye to My Alpha’s Seven-Year Deception Novel

Chapter 2 Dont tell me thats how you came back .

Your clothes are torn to shreds , or were you trying to embarrass my brother ? Rileys voice dripped with sarcasm .

She reached out to prod my tattered clothes , as if trying to examine my wounds .

I flinched away from her touch , glancing at Liam .

Liams face was indifferent , as though watching a boring spectacle .

The wolves around us continued to observe , their eyes gleaming with schadenfreude , as if I were nothing more than an exiled stray wolf shamelessly returning to the Pack .

In the end , he relented and pushed me toward the room .

His voice feigned gentleness , but the disgust in his eyes was unmistakable .

You should clean up .

You wont be attending the celebration tonight .

This is a gathering of Alphas and pure blooded wolves from all the major Packs … he trailed off , his tone dripping with contempt .

I scoffed , a low growl vibrating in my throat .

Why ? Is this the result of your actions , too ? His golden eyes flashed with violence .

Enough ! Havent you come back safely ? Tonight is a celebration for Rileys return .

I suggest you dont cause a scene .

His voice held a warning , and with that , he slammed the door , locking me in the room .

I sank against the wall , tears flooding uncontrollably .

This weakness was a humiliation to me how could I , as a Pack doctor , show such a vulnerable side in front of my Pack ? After a long time , I wiped my tears and turned to gather my things .

As I opened the wardrobe , a piece of lingerie , radiating a potent Alpha scent , fell out .

My pupils dilated it was definitely not mine .

77.8 % clenched the fabric in my fingers , my gaze shifting to the bed .

The tangled sheets and mingling scents were enough for any wolf to understand what had happened here .

A wave of nausea rose in my throat .

I rushed to the bathroom , vomiting until there was nothing left .

My body , weak from the mental link severance and a full day without food , trembled with exhaustion .

The pain and the discovery of the truth made it impossible for me to stay upright .

I collapsed onto the bathroom floor , hearing the distant sounds of the celebration outside , with Rileys laughter echoing through the air .

I felt a void in my heart , and a deep sense of alienation .

As a Healer , my heart was now illed with nothing but disdain for this territory , for Liam , and for Riley .

Through the agonizing pain , I sent a mental link to Liam , but each attempt was ruthlessly cut off .

Finally , on the seventh try , he responded , irritation thick in his voice : Didnt I say not to bother me unless its important ? I gritted my teeth and used my fading mental energy to reply , My stomach hurts , please … can you send me to the med … He scoffed , immediately cutting the link .

Dont try your tricks .

You just want to come out , have me acknowledge you as my mate in front of everyone , as if youre a true part of the blood oath .

His tone was full of contempt and disdain , as if all my suffering was staged .

His mental presence felt like a knife being plunged into my heart .

I closed my eyes and helplessly replied , Liam , lets end our blood oath .

He was silent for a few seconds , his mental presence trembling slightly , as if trying to hide his panic .

What are you babbling about ? We are about to tie the blood oath knot ! He was afraid Id give up on him , afraid to lose my healing abilities which he benefits from .

As if afraid that Id say something more damning , he cut the link , and I felt a sharp mental pain .

It sounded like he was dismissing the guests .

A dozen minutes later , the door opened and Riley was pouting and whining , Bro , why did you do that ? It was supposed to be my party .

, Lookether , Bro , shes faking .

You really believe her ? Riley looked down at me with the 7814 pureblood wolfs pride .

Liam saw me writhing in pain , and his brow furrowed , his sympathy tinged with annoyance .

He valued his reputation above my wellbeing .

He forced a smile , and pushed Riley out the door .

Be good , Riley .

I promise you a bigger celebration next time .

The door closed .

Liam turned to me , a bit embarrassed .

Why are you on the ground ? Ill help you to the bed .

I pushed his false concern aside , deliberately pointing towards the messy bed before looking back at him .
