Chapter 495 Not Your Luna Anymore

"What if I refuse?" I challenged, lifting my chin with defiance.

A scowl darkened his face as he narrowed his piercing blue eyes dangerously. My bravado faltered for a moment, and I silently cursed the heavens. Goddess, save me. His alpha aura was suffocating, intense, and powerful enough to crush the small shred of resolve I was clinging to.

I instinctively averted my gaze, stepping back in a desperate attempt to escape his presence and catch a breath. But it was impossible. The room felt smaller, the air thick with his intoxicating scent-the same scent that still had the unnerving ability to send my heart spiraling into chaos.

I blinked, gathering my wits. "I signed the contract this morning, yes. But I can still refuse to work, penalty be damned!" I shot back defiantly.

The way he glowered at me, his sharp tone cutting through the air, made me wince involuntarily. His aura, heavy with dominance, pinned me in place. "Now hurry up and pack your stuff because my Beta will pick you up in half an hour and escort you to the Moonglow Pack," he commanded, his Alpha
