Chapter 119:
THE LUNA IS CHOSEN
A hush fell over the pack as the last wolf lowered their head in submission. The weight of what had just happened pressed down on me not in fear, not in doubt, but in something real. Something permanent.
I had won.
I had proved my strength, not just to Donovan, but to all of them.
I was no longer just Ethan’s mate.
I was their Luna.
My heart pounded in my chest as I took a slow, steadying breath. My body ached from the fight, my muscles still tense from the effort, but I refused to let it show. I stood tall, lifting my chin, letting the moment settle.
Then, slowly, I turned to Donovan.
He was still kneeling, his breaths heavy, his gaze unreadable. But when he finally looked up at me, something had shifted.
There was no resentment.
