Chapter 21: Chapter 21 - Grief

"How can someone still not claimed by the Lord ascend on the luna's throne every day without having any sense of regret?" the first elder inquired. The sharpness in his tone pierced through my soul.

"If the alpha lord has not yet decided to take you as his mate, you cannot be considered one of us, let alone being the luna," one of the elders said.

The man was a lot younger. However, he appeared more observant and calmer than the other elders. I failed to recall meeting him on my first encounter with the elders. Someone with such an ethereal appearance as him would be impracticable to overlook.

"It is the greatest humiliation the wolves could ever face," Lord Lazark said.

"This vampire lady not only dared to deceive the entire wolf species, but she also underestimated the wolves by stepping on the ancient luna's sanctum without having any sense of consequences," the first elder continued.

The arrows of the accusations only continued to get cruder with each moment passing.
