Chasing His Wolfless Luna Back
Consequences–2.
It made me want to wrap my hands around her throat and make her see stars.
“That damn spoiled brat,” Maximus growled angrily, his eyes beginning to flicker gold. “What did you do about it? I hope you didn’t let her walk away.”
“Don’t worry, I’ve taken care of it.” A smile touched my lips. Aurora would think twice before ever hurting Thea again.
Alpha Ashworth?”
We all turned toward the nurse’s voice.
“Ms. Thea is awake.”
We all visibly relaxed. I’d been worried she wouldn’t wake up.
Her parents stood.
“Can we see her?” Seraphina asked eagerly.
“Maybe in a little while,” she said, turning to me, “she’s asking for you.”
I nodded and followed the nurse to Thea’s room. She opened the door for me and left.
Walking slowly to her bed, I noticed that although she looked groggy, she also seemed tense. Like she was worried about something.
“I’m sorry,” she blurted out as soon as I sat down and took her hand,
I was shocked. Not quite sure what she was apologizing for. I mean, she hadn’t done anything wrong.
“For what?” I asked cautiously.
“I might have provoked Aurora… I don’t know what came over me when I said those things.”
She looked so worried and scared. It confused me because I didn’t understand what her words to Aurora had to do with her apology.
“What did you say to her?”
“She kept telling me you belonged to her, saying I should stop using my amnesia to force you to stay with me. I don’t know what came over me. I got angry and told her if you were really hers, then why do you come home to me every day since I woke up?”
I couldn’t help but laugh. She looked so adorable I just wanted to kiss her.
“It’s not funny,” she frowned at me.
“It kind of is, Thea.”
She sighed tiredly, letting go of my hand and placing hers on the blanket.
“I know you never liked me provoking her. I’m really sorry about that We’ve been doing so well, and I don’t want that to affect us.”
I finally understood why she looked worried. The old me would have blown up at her for this. I would have gotten angry and said some very nasty things to her. She was expecting that to happen. She was expecting me to be angry with her.

Consequences–2
I cupped her cheek gently and placed a soft kiss on her lips.
“You don’t need to apologize for telling her the truth, Thea. I don’t want her, if I did, I would be with her right now. My body, mind, soul, and wolf only want you. No one else. So you were right. I come home every day because that’s where I want to be. With you, Leo, and Phoenix.”
She visibly relaxed.
“You really mean that?”
I just nodded, letting her see the truth in my eyes. “With every heartbeat I have.”
“Thank you… I can sleep peacefully now. I was worried that would cause friction between us,” she murmured sleepily.
“Rest, my love… I’ll be here when you wake up.”
Within seconds, she was completely asleep. I continued watching her sleep, once again thanking the Goddess for giving me a second chance with her.
I was thinking about all the things I’d do to make it up to her when my phone rang.
“What is it?” I asked irritably.
“Aurora has been arrested,” Kestrel answered.
“You know what to do next.”
“Yes, Alpha.”
“Good.”
With that, I hung up, smiling to myself. The arrest was just the beginning.
