Crippled Luna's Farewell Half A Life Without My Alpha's Deadly Deception novel Chapter 12

Chapter 12 

Maya met me at the border of her territory, tears streaming when she saw me in the wheelchair. 

“How could this happen? That monster promised to protect you! Was it him? Why can only the 

Northern healers help you? It was Ethan, wasn’t it? Sarah, why are you still protecting him?” 

I wiped her tears away with a gentle smile. “I’m fine, see? I chose to stay by his side. Consider this my lesson learned. I’m done with his games. This clean break… it’s better this way.” 

“How soon can the healers see me? I want to recover before facing my old pack. They don’t need to 

see me broken.” 

Maya nodded quickly. “The High Healer is waiting. He reviewed your case–says there’s strong hope for your wolf to heal fully. But we must start now.” 

The healing ritual lasted five moons. The High Healer said we’d barely made it–two more days and my wolf would have been permanently crippled. Now, with time and training, I could reclaim my 

strength. 

I tried to ignore news from the Mooncliff Pack, but Ethan’s status made that impossible. Stories spread like wildfire: 

The Alpha abandoned his own Moonbinding ceremony. Alexandra became pack mockery. The Elders tried claiming Alexandra as true mate. Ethan publicly destroyed their lies. 

He created a public pack channel, sharing our binding portraits, declaring I would be his only mate 

in this life or the next. 

He claimed Rose into the Sterling Pack, threatening to destroy his own bloodline if Alexandra ever 

approached their territory. 

The Pack Elders resisted but couldn’t challenge their only heir. Alexandra’s dreams of becoming 

Luna shattered. Both families turned on each other, fighting for Rose’s pack rights. 

But Ethan, as Rose’s sire, never defended Alexandra’s honor.
