Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 64: The Heir

Giselle's POV

The Pack Doctor's brows furrowed as he fixed his gaze upon me. His lips parted slightly as if the words he wished to convey had become momentarily lodged in their throat.

I knew what he was thinking. That look of judgment in his eyes is all too familiar to me. Yet, he didn't say anything. He knew that one word out of his mouth, then I might just well kill him now to hide my dark secret.

So, with hesitation in his eyes and a heavy weight in his heart, he slowly lowered his head before me in surrender.

"Y-Yes, Luna," he stammered as he forced out his words.

Hearing the tremble in his voice, I was not fully convinced that he would be trusted with my secret.

However, I had no choice; he is a Doctor, and even if I kill him, someone is going to replace him and find out about the real gender of my child.

I need a Doctor that I could trust and work for me to hide the identity of my child.

I need to gain his trust and make sure he won't betray me.

"Good," I muttered beneath my breath.

He pursed his lips together in fear.

"I am a very generous person, Doctor. As long as you keep up the good work, I can help you with your career. You won't only be the best Doctor in this Pack, but you might be a renowned specialist to all Packs and even a famous doctor to the humans." His eyes brightened as my words filled his imagination. He swallowed hard as he thought about my tempting offer.
