Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 53: Save the Date

Killian's POV

A deep, weary sigh escaped my lips as I stared down at the latest reports that never seemed to end from my Pack.

Despite my relentless efforts day in and day out, the Silvermoon Pack seemed to be mired in an endless spiral of problems and setbacks.

My brows furrowed in frustration as I ran my calloused hand through my hair. Every time I resolve one issue, two more will crop up and take its place.

The finances were in disarray, our Pack military was dwindling, and tensions within the Pack were reaching a boiling point. No matter how hard I work and try to balance all things together, in the end, I can only do one thing at once.

If only I could, I would slice my body in half so I could at least be more productive than I already am.

My schedule is already hectic as it is. I've done nothing but work every single day, but my efforts never matched my results.

My jaw tightened as I thought about the Nightsong Pack. While our Pack struggled, the Nightsong Pack is thriving - their numbers are growing, and their reputation is spreading. I heard Drystan is getting offers here and there every single day as he earned the respect and loyalty of werewolves far and wide.

Of course, he wouldn't have done it without Astrid's help. When Astrid was the Luna of our Pack, she had done the same thing to our Pack, too.

The tides had changed ever since Astrid switched places. When she left, she left me with nothing. I had to carry everything on my own.

As long as they take a few jobs from my hand, it would actually be a great help for me to put more effort and focus on one field. I dug my claws into the arms of my chair as I swore under my breath.
