Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 221: Crumbling Heights

Giselle's POV

Before anyone could ask their questions, Alpha Theron had already made a move to answer them.

"Honored guests," he began, his deep baritone voice carrying a weight of authority. "I understand the confusion and speculation that has arisen regarding my relationship with Astrid. Allow me to set the records straight."

Alpha Theron paused, his eyes briefly meeting Astrid's before he continued. "Many years ago, before I became the Alpha of the Shadowfang Pack. I was engaged in an affair with a young omega."

Gasps filled the room when Alpha Theron gave his confession, and whispers started to grow among the guests.

After all, a forbidden relationship between an Alpha and a lowly Omega is unheard of. It's even more surprising, especially coming from the Alpha of the most developed Pack.

"Astrid and I were able to establish her true lineage three years ago after a series of tests. To my great surprise and joy, I discovered that she was indeed my long-lost daughter.

A collective gasp rippled through the assembly, the weight of Alpha Theron's revelation settling heavily upon the guests.

I felt my own heart thundering in my chest, my mind racing with a whirlwind of emotions as I processed this unexpected turn of events.
