Alpha Begged His Doctor Luna come back のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 121 - チャプター 130

(Vivian's POV)The air was cool as Emma and I walked back to my apartment at Moonstone Ridge. The sky had turned a deep indigo, with the first stars beginning to appear above the territory borders."So let me get this straight," Emma said, breaking our momentary silence. "Sylvan Thorne is the mysterious benefactor who's paying for Anna's moon sickness treatment?"I nodded, feeling a strange mix of emotions even saying it aloud. "Yes. And he's been getting Anna to deliver flowers to me.""Using a sick pup as his messenger?" Emma's eyebrows shot up. "That's... actually kind of sweet and manipulative at the same time.""That's Sylvan in a nutshell," I replied with a small smile I couldn't quite suppress.Emma stopped walking and turned to face me, her expression serious. "Why am I just hearing about this now? When did all this happen?"I shrugged, suddenly feeling defensive. "It's been a lot to process.""We've nearly completed a full moon cycle of drama and you're just telling me

(Vivian's POV)I stared across the table at Sylvan, refusing to move closer as he'd requested. His ice-blue eyes held mine, challenging, always challenging. The private alcove of The Moonlight Lodge suddenly felt too intimate without Dr. Jenkins as a buffer."I'm not playing this game," I said firmly, reaching for my purse. "Tell Dr. Jenkins whatever you want when she returns. I'm leaving."Sylvan's expression didn't change, but something in his eyes hardened. "Before you go, I wanted to discuss a rare wolfsbane extract treatment I've secured."My hand froze over my purse. "What treatment?""It's experimental," he continued casually, swirling the red wine in his glass. "Developed by Northern Pack specialists specifically for moon sickness. Very rare, very expensive."I slowly lowered my hand. "What does this have to do with Anna?""Anna's condition affects fewer than five percent of wolf pups," Sylvan said, setting his glass down. "Most succumb within five moon cycles. Each rela

(Vivian's POV)I stood in Sylvan's office, my arms crossed tightly over my chest. The tension between us was palpable, filling the space with unspoken emotions."What would it take?" Sylvan asked suddenly, his ice-blue eyes fixed intently on mine. "What would I need to do to prevent this mate bond severance?"The question caught me off guard. After weeks of him avoiding the process, now he wanted to negotiate?"There's nothing you can do," I replied, my voice steadier than I felt. "Trying to patch up what's already broken would be meaningless."Sylvan took a step closer, his rain-forest scent washing over me. "Tell me what I've done wrong. I'll fix it."I shook my head, feeling a sudden wave of exhaustion. "It's not about fixing one thing. Our entire relationship is fractured.""Then we'll rebuild it," he insisted."Sylvan, stop." I raised my hand between us. "You could find someone better than me. Someone gentler, more attentive. Someone skilled at making you happy."His expr

(Third-Person's POV)The rumors had been swirling through Blood Moon headquarters for weeks. Alpha Sylvan Thorne and his beautiful mate—their troubled relationship, their pending severance, their passionate arguments. Every operative had a different version of the story, each more dramatic than the last.So when Emma Rivers burst through the executive floor doors, several operatives immediately assumed she was the infamous mate they'd heard so much about."Is that her?" whispered one junior operative to another. "Sylvan's mate?""She's... not what I expected," the other replied, eyeing Emma's disheveled appearance with disappointment.Emma ignored them, her wolf bristling just beneath her skin as she marched toward the main conference room. Ruby Sterling had abandoned her in the lobby, too terrified to confront the Blood Moon Alpha, but Emma was beyond caring.Twenty high-ranking Blood Moon operatives looked up in shock as she flung open the door without knocking. Sylvan sat at t

(Emma's POV)"Coward!" I shouted at Sylvan Thorne's retreating back as he walked out of the conference room.I couldn't believe it. I was only halfway through telling him exactly what I thought of him when he simply turned and left. Like my words meant nothing. Like Vivian's suffering meant nothing!"Please continue, Ms. Rivers," Marcus Wright said calmly, holding up a small recording device. "Alpha Thorne instructed me to capture everything you have to say."I stared at him in disbelief. "A recording? He thinks a recording is an acceptable substitute?""He will listen to every word," Marcus assured me."His face deserves my expression more than that device," I snapped, pointing at the recorder. "Just you wait, next time we'll see who runs faster!"I stormed out of Blood Moon headquarters, my wolf bristling with unspent fury beneath my skin. How dare he walk away? How dare he leave like that when I was telling him about how Vivian had nearly broken under the weight of her depres
