The Luna’s Choice Chapter 07

The Luna’s Choice Chapter 07

No wonder Kaven looked so much like Bella. 

So Kaven and her mother were the culprits who 

had driven Bella and her mother out of the Silver 

Moon Pack all those years ago. 

Later, after illness and depression broke her down, 

Bella’s mother had walked into the Forbidden. 

Grounds. 

Julian laughed under his breath. 

Then he slapped himself across the face. 

He had slept with Bella’s enemy. 

He had chosen the very kind of illegitimate child 

he had despised his entire life. 

Because of that illegitimate daughter, he had driven Bella away. 

Julian felt as if fate itself were mocking him. 

Just then, a warrior rushed over, frantic and 

breathless. “Alpha, we found her. But…” 

Julian was furious and frantic. “But what?” 

“Our people can’t get in.” 

The warrior kept his head lowered, not daring to 

meet Julian’s eyes. 

Julian’s voice sank. “Where is she?” 

“Moonlight Estate.” 

Julian narrowed his eyes. He took out his phone 

and dialed a number he had not called in a very long time. 

The call connected quickly. 

For once, Julian spoke with respect. “Dad, you’re 

back from overseas?” 

But a soft laugh came from the other end. 

“Brother, Dad is asleep. What do you need?” 

Julian’s blood ran cold. 

He lost control completely. 

He shouted into the phone, “You took Bella. Give 

Bella back to me!” 

“How can you be this disgusting? You stole my 

father, and now you want to steal my Moon Goddess too?” 

Justin’s voice remained calm and almost careless. 

“Sorry, Julian. Bella came with me willingly. Once 

she’s recovered, we’ll hold the wedding right away Dad has already agreed.” 

“What happened to her?” Julian interjected, panic cracking his voice. “Is she hurt?” 

Justin laughed again, but the sound was laced with dark fury. “You’re asking that now? Don’t you 

find that ridiculous, Julian? 

“When I arrived, Bella was about to be marked by that stupid gray wolf. She was still carrying your 

pup. Where were you then?” 

“Oh, right. The child from Bella’s belly was already 

sent to your mother. You saw it, didn’t you?” 

“Bella asked me to tell you one thing. After giving 

birth to that child, everything she owed the 

Blackwood Pack and everything she owed you 

was paid in full.” 

Justin hung up. 

Julian thought of the baby. 

He had not dared to look. 

From beginning to end, he had not dared to look. 

He had not dared to admit that it was his and 

Bella’s child. 

After hesitating again and again, he still called 

Margaret. 

The line was busy. 

A while later, Margaret sent him a text. 

In the photo was a small urn. 

So small. 

[I’ll take the child to the sacred grounds for 

blessings. I won’t return for three years.] 

[Julian, take care of yourself.] 

Only then did Julian begin to understand. 

It seemed that overnight, everything had slipped 

out of his control. 

The mother who had always loved him had left 

him. 

His Bella had left him too. 

His child was gone. 

He had nothing left. 

Julian could not stop trembling. 

Not far away, Kaven was still cursing and shouting. 

while warriors restrained her. 

Julian suddenly turned and slapped Kaven across 

the face. 

“If it weren’t for you, Bella never would have left 

me!” 

Julian threw Kaven into the back seat of the car 

like trash. 

Then he headed for the Moonlight Estate. 

At that moment, I was lying in the private care room Justin had built especially for me at Moonlight Estate. 

He was carefully feeding me soup, asking softly, 

“Bella, how are you feeling?“I turned to look at him. “Thank you for saving me.” 

Justin scratched the back of his head, suddenly 

embarrassed. 

“You’re my fiancée. Why are you saying that to 

me?” 

“Don’t worry. Noah’s pack has been destroyed, and 

I tore him apart myself.” 

“I’ve handled everything. He won’t be crawling out 

of this easily.” 

I nodded in silence. 

Maybe it was better that the pup did not survive. 

Julian did not deserve to be his father. 

I looked at Justin. “Did you look at everything on 

the flash drive?” 

That flash drive held the evidence I had spent ten 

years collecting through connections in the circle, 

proof that Alpha Mike had betrayed the Silver 

Moon Pack. 

Ten years. 

At last, I could avenge my mother. 

Justin nodded solemnly. 

“It’s enough to ruin him.” 

After hearing the answer I wanted, I could not help 

smiling. 

“Justin, take me to see my mother.” 

I had not spoken to her in almost half a year. 

Justin wrapped me up from head to toe before. 

wheeling me outside. 

But just as we reached the entrance, a commotion 

rose in front of the estate. 

A woman’s crying mixed with a man’s shouting. The noise was sharp and unpleasant. 

I frowned without thinking. 

Justin was just asking what had happened when a 

man rushed toward us. 

“Bella!” 

At the familiar voice, I lifted my eyes. 

There was not a ripple of emotion left in my gaze. 

“Alpha Julian.” 

Pain flashed through his eyes at my coldness. 

“Bella, I know I was wrong,” he choked out, dropping to his knees. It was rare to see the arrogant Alpha so lowered, practically begging. 

“Can you… can you come back with me?” 

I studied him with mild interest for a few seconds. 

Then I looked away and said flatly, “We have 

nothing to do with each other anymore.” 

Julian half–kneeled in front of me, his face full of 

pleading. 

“Bella, I know you’re angry with me. I swear I’ll 

never play around again. Give me one more 

chance, okay?” 

“Right, I brought Kaven. I brought her here to 

apologize to you.” 

“I didn’t know she was the illegitimate daughter 

you mentioned. I’m sorry, Bella.” 

“If I had known, if I had known, I never would have touched her.” 

I narrowed my eyes at the man in front of me. 

Then I crooked a finger at him, signaling him to 

come closer. 

Overjoyed, he leaned in at once. 

My voice was hoarse as I spoke each word clearly. 

“Julian, I don’t want you anymore. You’ve slept 

with too many women. You’re filthy.” 

Julian froze where he stood. 

I looked back at Justin, signaling him to keep pushing me forward. 

The moment Kaven saw me, she started 

screaming. 

“Bella, how are you still alive?” 

“If it weren’t for you and your mother, no one 

would call me illegitimate!” 

“From the moment I found out your father was my father too, I swore I would take everything from 

you.” 

“Julian is mine now too.” 

I looked at her without expression, before my lips curved into a cold smile. 

“He’s secondhand trash. If you’re that desperate to choke on my leftovers, you’re welcome to him.” 

Soon, Alpha Mike would be finished. 

And this mistress and her daughter would lose everything they had schemed so hard to steal. 

Thinking of that, I felt even more eager to go to my mother’s grave and tell her the good news. 

Before we left, Kaven was thrown out while Julian 

was escorted into the study by Ethan. 

Behind me, Justin suddenly spoke, his voice 

carrying a hint of jealousy. 

“Bella, I met you first back then.” 

I paused and turned to look at him. 

His handsome face softened when he met my 

eyes, tenderness filling every line of it. 

He smiled at the memory. “At the bookstore.” 

“You definitely don’t remember.” 

“You were wearing an apron, hiding in the corner 

while the shop was slow, completely absorbed in 

a book.” 

“The book I wanted was sold out, so you gave me 

your copy.” 

“Your name was written on the first page, and one. 

of your handmade bookmarks was tucked inside.” 

“I’ve kept it all these years.” 

“Later, I left the pack with my father for training. I 

kept thinking that once I came back, I would find you. But by the time I returned, you had already…” 

He did not finish. 

I did not ask. 

After that, my mother’s illness kept coming back. 

I had no choice but to take a leave from school. 

I had no choice but to work two jobs to pay for her 

medical bills. 

And while working at a bar, I met Julian. 

I stayed at my mother’s grave for a long time. 

Only when night fell did Justin remind me that it 

was time to go back. 

But as soon as we entered the estate, 

we saw Julian sitting on the sofa, hollow–eyed and 

lost.
