I Am The Luna

58. A Doctor’s Duty or I Am The Luna Chapter 136 By Moonlight Muse

VALERIE.

Zaia has made her decision.

It wasn’t what I expected or wanted for them, but just the way she respected and had my back when it came to Jai, I will do the same. It’s been three days since and she’s handed the title back to Sebastian.

I’ve chosen to remain here. I know it’s what Jai would have wanted me to do, help rebuild this pack and its homes.

The people here would need me too, especially those who lost loved ones. Zaia will move back to The Crystal Shadow Pack, with the rogue pack being hers she planned to make good use of the lands.

Those rogues who were innocent enough were assigned into packs, and some who wanted to leave were allowed to do so of their own free will.

A few who seemed pretty unhinged were put in isolation for questioning and imprisonment, if need be, including the few who had refused to stand down.

Most of Gerard’s men were captured, and although some killed themselves rather than let themselves be caught, a few were still put into imprisonment.

Talking about imprisonment, Sebastian wanted to give Annalise a proper sentencing, but Zaia had said having her exiled and banishment from any pack in this state was more fitting.

So, after her baby’s birth, she would have to leave, but there was a catch. She would have to wear a tracker for the next three years and would have to report bi-weekly.

Then there was Cara… well, Sebastian had her locked up for coercing someone into sex when they were not of sound mind and also for working with the enemy. She will spend a minimum of five years in imprisonment and if she’s lucky, she might just get to walk away after that.

Turns out she was the illegitimate daughter of Rufus Santoni, someone who had embezzled money from the Toussaint Enterprise many years ago. Well, the apple sure didn’t fall far from the tree.

The car stops and I see Atticus walk over and open the door for me before I can. To think once I found him annoying, I now feel like a lucky girl to have a brother like him.

“Welcome to our pack, Val,” he says, hugging me.

I hug him back. “Thanks. It sure feels weird visiting now.” I chuckle.

“Well, I hope this will be a visit you truly enjoy,” he says. Stepping back, he turns to the two women standing there. The previous Luna, Shelby, his mother and his sister Linette.
