Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 221: Crumbling Heights

"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.

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