Thome dragged his injured leg, struggling to walk towards me on the stage, leaving a trail of glaring blood stains behind him.
The guests were shocked by this sudden Interruption.
Thome ignored the warriors who tried to stop him, his eyes pleading as he looked at me.
“Ophelia, don’t become his Luna. Please, come back to me. Please?”
This was supposed to be my mating ceremony with Xander, and many other Alphas and Lunas from different packs were present. I didn’t want to become famous this way, nor did I want to ruin the ceremony my parents had been loolding forward to for so long.
I asked Xander to bring in more warriors and ordered them to drag Thome out.
This brief interruption didn’t affect the ceremony.
The rest of the ceremony went smoothly, and once the final ritual was completed, and the guests had left, I turned to Xander.
“Can I have some time to deal with what just happened? I need to talk to him.”
Xander trusted me enough to nod without hesitation
“Go ahead, but be careful. If you need any help, just call me. I’ll be right here.”
For some reason, his calm expression gave me a sense of security.
Thome was confined to a room under warriors. When they saw me, they rushed to say: “You gotta talk some sense into him. He’s lost too much blood from the crash–we’ve been begging him to see a pack doctor, but he won’t budge.”
“Ar this rate, he’ll bleed out. It’s life or death now.
I gave the guard a mod.
When I entered, he looked up, his face pale and sweat beading on his forehead, clearly in pain.
When he saw me,
his eyes brightened, and a smile spread across his face.
“Ophelia, you’re finally willing to see me. Please, come back to the pack with me.
Looking at him like this, with everything we had been through, I couldn’t stay indifferent.
“You’re injured. Go see the pack doctor and get your wounds treated. We can talk later.”
But he stubbornly refused.
“No, not unless you promise to come home with me.
I sighed, feeling helpless. “Thorne, we’ve severed the mate bond. And our mack was gone too. I’ve sealed a mate bond with someone else now. Please,
Η
“No! I don’t accept it! Who said we severed the mate bond? I didn’t agree to that!”
I sighed again. “The moment you decided to hold the mating ceremony with Liora, our mate band was broken. Didn’t you realize that? Or do you think you can have two Lunas?”
“Thome, I sent you the message about breaking the mate bond. You didn’t reply, so isn’t that a silent consent?”
Thome desperately tried to explain.
“I didn’t see the message you sent ”
“Ophelia, if it’s because of me and Liora, I can explain.”
“I didn’t mean to hide it from you. I don’t have feelings for Llora. I just felt sorry for her. Her parents forced her to marry her blockhead mate, so I agreed to a fake marriage to help her.”
“Ophella, believe me, you are the only one I love. She’s someone we saved from the rogues. She calls me Alpha, and I’m only helping her because of rly Alpha duty.”
I couldn’t help but laugh bitterly.
“If It’s truly as you say, just to help her, then why didn’t you tell me the truth? Why lie to me, Thome? You claim to love me, but have you ever respected me?”

“If you truly love me, why did you hide it from me and declare that she’s your Luna in front of all the pack members?”
“If it was just a fake wedding, why did you arrange for me to could have invited me, couldn’t you?”

“Why didn’t you invite me? Because deep down, you knew it wasn’t fake, and that’s why you couldn’t invite n
Thome hastily explained, “It’s not like that, Ophelia 1 admit that hiding the truth from you was wrong.
“But believe me, I did it for your own good. I was afraid you’d overthink it, that you’d be hurt and argue with me again, so I kept it from you.”
At this point, I couldn’t tell what parts of his words were true, but it didn’t matter anymore. I didn’t care.
I sighed deeply.
“It doesn’t matter anymore, Thorne. It’s over. You don’t
need to explain.”
As soon as I finished speaking, Thome suddenly stood up, but the movement made his injured leg flare up in pain. He gasped sharply, sweat instantly forming on his forehead.
He gritted his teeth, trying to hold back the pain, but he continued to plead
“Ophelia, I know I was wrong. I hurt you. When I realized you were in the car, you have no idea how afraid I was of losing you. It felt like the end of the world.”
“Maybe this is the Moon Goddess‘ punishment for me, for causing the accident while trying to get back to you. Ophelia, this is my retribution. I really know I was wrong. love you, Ophelia, Can we start over?”
