Chapter 128: She Is Leaving?
[Patrick’s P.O.V.]
While we were still gathered in Alpha’s office, Luna telepathically spoke to my wolf to inform us that there was something she would like to speak to us about. I responded that we would be waiting for her at Alpha’s office.
“That was a difficult and sad decision we had to make against Alpha, but at least Luna can be at peace for the time being,” said Jane.
“Alpha Patrick, go investigate the matter of Eve’s miscarriage. Gamma Ad, strengthen the defense of the pack internally and externally.” Alpha Leon wasted no time to instruct us on our next moves. Although I was still unaccustomed to this title, I nodded my head with Ad and obeyed his orders.
Then, came a knock on the door. Jane ran over to open it and Alonso walked in, followed by Luna.
“What are you guys talking about?” asked Alonso us.
“Alpha has just been placed under house arrest by Uncle Leon. Patrick is now the acting Alpha.”
“Oh, this is good news. Come on, Rose, tell them our news.”
We looked at Luna expectantly, thought none of us knew what she was about to tell us.
“Thank you for your care and concern for me all this time. I’ve just come to inform you that I’m ready to leave the pack,” said Luna. Although she said it rather softly and calmly, my heart still tightened.
“Child, is it because of Edward? He’s under house arrest now. So, you don’t have to worry about him hurting you and your child anymore,” said Luna Taylor, almost pleadingly.
“I’m sorry, Mother, but this is my decision.”
“Luna, stay. The pack will protect you and your child. Or you can just go stay at my apartment,” said I as Diana nodded agreeingly next to me.
“Thank you for your kindness. But I will be leaving with Alonso. He will take care of me.”

“Alonso? Boy, I mean no offense, but you are a child yourself. How will you take care and be responsible for Luna? Were you the one who talked her into this? Look, you may be a Werewolf of Chaos, but Luna’s a pregnant woman!” Thinking about the possibility that Alonso was the one who forced Luna to leave, I suddenly felt a surge of anger in my chest.
“I didn’t encourage her but I can assure you that I’m capable enough to take care of her. In fact, I’m the one who doesn’t understand why you’re forcing her to stay. Just because she’s carrying Alpha’s child? The heir to the family and pack?”
“God d*mn it! It’s because she’s family, that’s why!” Jane was about to lose it.
“Family? Your Alpha just committed physical, verbal, and sexual violence on her! And they’re supposed to be mates! None of us can even begin to imagine how traumatizing that is for her. If you really think of her as family, you wouldn’t be forcing her to continue living in the same house as her abuser and those related to him. Or have you forgotten that she can read others’ thoughts? Just a quick insider knowledge, all Rose could read from Edward’s thoughts are his constant lust for any other woman except her.
“He may be under house arrest now, but he’s Alpha for a reason. Which one of you can guarantee that he wouldn’t escape and beat Rose up one day? If you’re not able to subdue your Alpha properly, at least have the decency to let Rose go and live her life peacefully.”
I was about to speak, but Luna interrupted me.
“Enough. Alonso did not convince or force me to make this decision. I was the one who made it.”
“But why, Luna?” I was exasperated.
“Regardless of whether he’s under house arrest or not, all I know is that he doesn’t love me anymore.”
When she said these words, there were tears in her eyes, but she did her best to remain calm.
“I used to think that the bond between us was indestructible, but it seems that I was overconfident in myself. If he truly doesn’t love me anymore, I cannot force him to change his heart and mind again. I can only hope that he will get better soon. But I can’t wait that long, not with him in his current condition.”
The rest of us fell silent.
“I love Edward. I love him so much that I’m willing to give up my life for him. But I’ve also suffered for eight years in New Moon Pack, and I honestly do not want to relive that here. His words, actions, thoughts, and even his gaze are enough to kill me countless time. No matter what caused him to be like this, the fact remains that he doesn’t want me anymore. I don’t think I can continue living here. I don’t want my emotions to get out of control, and I don’t want to hurt the people of my pack because of it. That is why I have chosen to leave.”
