Chapter 3
ADRIAN
The ticking sound of the clock echoes in my heart, making me feel even more wretched One thing about time. Iâve learned, is that it runs faster when you wish itâll slow down. Like right now A while ago, it was 9 pm and now itâs past midnight Soon it will be dawn, noon, and then night, and Iâll have to reject Tessa as my mate and Luna. The thought of that unnerves me Never did I think Iâd be rejecting the only woman Iâve ever loved
Alpha A voice says behind me, and I recognize it instantly. Itâs Will The Parkâs doctor and the only friend Iâve got. He might be a lot older than I am but we find our common ground and vibe well.
Will had been the one who found out that I was impotent and heâs been taking care of the situation ever since then. He came up with great concoctions that make me able to f uck a woman to a good dose, even though I could never get them to carry my child.
My di ck feels perfectly fine and I get erections as a normal man should I would have been tempted to think I wasnât impotent if it wasnât for the fact that no woman 1 f ucked could carry my child. Not even Tessa, in our three years of being
Inates
Still, I donât feel as invalid as I should, and itâs all thanks to Will. He healed me to some extent, giving me the chance to have as much fun as a man should have
âNot right now, Will I wanna be alone. Please I reply calmly, still staring out the window in my study. Iâm clad in my sleeping outfit but I canât find the urge to sleep. Not when tomorrow will bring a lot of horrible feelings with it.
âNone of the male Omegas admitted being responsible for the Lunaâs pregnancy, Alpha. Iâm so sorry.â
âYou donât have to speak so formally, will. Itâs just you and me in here. Talk as casually as you want.â I tell him, âcause right now, I need him to be my buddy and not my father figure or doctor, or personal advisor.
As you wish, Adrian. Iâm really sorry we couldnât find the Lunaâs lover. Maybe she made them take a strong oath of secrecy.â
I exhale, gulping down the dreadful lump forming in my throat. I canât spill another tear for her. She doesnât deserve it.
I wanna be alone, Will. If you, please. I really wanna be aloneâ¦â
Iâm sorry, Adrian but leaving you alone isnât a good idea. Your mind is unstable right now and Iâm scared you might do something crazy?
âMy mind has every g odd amn reason to be unstable. I got cheated on and lied to my face by the woman I trusted with my life. Iâm almost going crazy!â
Yelling and venting on Will isnât the ideal and rational thing to do but I need to let out some of the agony Iâm feeling. Keeping them locked up inside of me is killing me. Itâs making it harder for me to breathe. And itâs all because I gave my life. and my heart to a womanâTessa.
It feels just like yesterday when we had the mating ball and she appeared on the stairs, studded with diamonds. She was the prettiest female in the hall and at the end of the night, I felt my wolf calling out to her. You canât imagine how thrilled I was and how scared!
I was f ucking scared she was gonna reject me when she finds out that I canât give her a child. But that didnât make me lie to her anyways. I told her the truth, praying she still accepts me regardless.
She said she was cool with it. She said she loved me to the moon and back, and a measly thing like me being impotent will never change that She said we could settle for adoption when itâs time for me to provide the Pack with an heir. She said she would never crave another manâs d ick. She said I was all she ever wanted.
She said a lot of sh it and I was st upid enough to believe her. I bought all her lies with every penny they cost and here I am. regretting it.

Why did she have to make me open up my heart to her only to leave me for dead? Why didnât she just reject or bond at the onset? That would have been better than leading me this far and letting me down as brutally as ever
âWho sent these letters? Will asks, and I can hear him rummaging through my desk Luna Testa?
âYeah, her. She seems not to know when to stop I sigh. Sheâs been sending letters to me tonight through the Omegas who go to serve her
âHave you read them?
âNo, I donât plan on. Iâve already heard enough of her lies. Whatâs the point of reading more of them?
âSo you donât mind if I throw them in the trash, do you? Wil asks, awaiting my permission.
âDo whatever you want with them. I couldnât give a s hit, even if I wanted to I reply dryly, ignoring how badly my heart is hurting. I hear him squeezing up the papers but I donât bother to turn around.
âTry to relax and brace yourself up for tomorrow. You have to be strong to be able to reject her
âI know. I just canât stop my mind from running wild. And sleep has deserted me too. Iâm exhausted but I canât make myself fall asleep. I explain, letting out a tired yawn.
âI think I know just what to make you fall asleepâ Will says and the thrill in his voice makes me turn around to look at him
âWhatâs that?â I ask, eyeing him suspiciously. I know when heâs up to something dirty
âYou still like them curvy and busty, right?â He drops the question, earning a fullâblown chuckle from me.
âI knew you were up to something dirty you sly, kinky, old man, I laugh, bumping his shoulder with my fist.
âYou know me,â He grins devilishly, flashing me a wink. âSo what do you say? Are you in for some fun tonight?â
âNot tonight, please. Iâm not exactly in the mood.â I tell him, brushing off the proposal.
âYouâre not in the mood or you canât get Tessa out of your mind?â Will asks, giving me a pointed stare.
âBoth.â I reply. The truth is, Iâve never been with another woman since I got mated to Tessa. F ucking another woman while Iâm still bonded to Tessa is a beastly thing to do. And sheâs gonna hurt because of It. I canât hurt her like that. Not even after- what she has done to me.
Will finally leaves after his failed attempt to persuade me to f uck some random bi che s tonight.
The next day, I waited patiently till it was night and time for me to officially break my bond with Tessa.
The elders arrive in the royal room and are seated calmly. Will is present too. In a short while, the door opens and Tesaa is
escorted in.
She goes on her knees and the sight of it jabs at my heart. Still, I remained glued on my seat, refusing to indulge the will of going over to her and scooping her into my arms.
One of the primal elders of the Pack reads out the laws to her, finding her guilty of cheating and tarnishing the sacred image of the Luna position of our Pack.
âItâs time to reject her, Alpha Adrian.â The elder beckons to me, and the others nod and mutter in agreement.
I stand from my seat and take a few steps to where she is. Her eyes are begging me, but thereâs nothing I can do. She caused this. She put us in this mess. If only sheâd stayed faithful to meâ¦.
âI, Adrian Hearst, Alpha of the Silvermoon Pack, reject you, Tessa Hearst, as my mate and Luna..â And then I felt it. Our bond ripped from my end. Or so I thought.
