Centuries ago, a woman named Diana was once blessed with a Luna wolf, but her mate, being unaware of it, rejected her. Luckily, she was accepted by her second chance mate and became the most powerful Luna that ever lived.

In a case where a Luna wolf dies, the owner would never be mated again. However, since her human side becomes dominant, she can fall in love the human way but never with the ones who rejected her.

Denzel’s heart sank. How could he allow Valerie to fall in love with anyone who was not him? He wasn’t going to accept it.

Right now, she was away from the packs, but he knew he couldn’t keep her out of the public eye forever. She was a very attractive woman, and even the likes of Alpha Idris were already after her.

Denzel was uncomfortable at the thought. He had already lost Lisa, so how could he lose Valerie too? He heard that sometimes, rejected mates come back together.

That was what fueled his decision, together with what she did to him years back. Now realizing the complications of the matter due to Valerie’s wolf, he would not sit down and do nothing.

"When she finds love and is accepted, she will have the strength of a human but never the strength of her wolf. She would live like a human and die within their lifespan."

Luna Fernanda closed the book, her eyes red. The rejection hit harder than she imagined. A human in a pack? How long would Valerie survive? If there was a war, she would never stand a chance.

Also, as soon as it is revealed that her wolf died, she would never be accepted in any pack. Even if Alpha Denzel wanted to keep her, the council would not allow it.

In the case of Lisa, Alpha Denzel had planned to keep her in Vegas since she was human. If she births him a child, he would find a way to send the child to the pack to be trained, and that way, he would have his heir and his mate.

It was not the same for Valerie as she was used to life in the pack and would never be able to get over it.

"Meaning she won’t live long like us?" Denzel asked. Fernanda was speechless and pained to not have a solution this time.

Denzel had looked upon her with so much hope, but she could only shake her head in resignation. "I’m sorry. This is out of my control."

Denzel was shaking his head. He wasn’t one to give up, so why do so now? "I have to get her wolf back." Determination laced his voice, but Fernanda opened the book once more.

"It states here. A Luna wolf, once dead, would never return. The sooner the bearer accepts being human, the earlier she discovers her human strength."

"Selene." Alpha Denzel was yelling like he just lost his mind. He wasn’t accepting this, so how could he let Valerie accept it? She would never survive a fight without her wolf, and packs were known for war.

"What are you doing?" Afraid of the murderous look in his eyes, Fernanda asked. Denzel only showed her his sweet side, so this was new to her. She couldn’t help being scared.

Also, Denzel was calling onto the moon goddess. Fernanda could not offer any calming advice.

"I have to talk to her. She can’t do this." Denzel yelled like he was mad. Even as he glared at Fernanda, he couldn’t pretend that he wasn’t hurting, as it was too much for him to bear.

"Denzel, what you are doing is dangerous," Fernanda tried to calm him. Calling onto the moon goddess, she would respond, but that was accompanied with serious consequences.

This was the reason why no one dared to call on the moon goddess for discussion, and not one who rejected his mate for whatsoever reason.

"I can’t lose Valerie. She’s already hurting. Selene!" Denzel refused to give up. He was ready to make any sacrifice for as long as Valerie would get her wolf back. "Come out here or I’ll never return to the packs. I will equally live my life as a human."

When Fernanda realized that Denzel was ready to give up his wolf for Valerie, she couldn’t discourage him anymore.

"I will excuse you, but Selene would never appear in this room. You should head into the woods," she instructed.

It was said that the moon goddess was a lover of nature, never liking the limitation of a roof over her head.

"Then you can stay here. I will be back," Denzel ran out of the cottage. Fernanda feared the worst, that she couldn’t keep her promise to her elder sister to take good care of her nephew. She began to chase after him, but when she couldn’t catch up, she screamed,

"Denzel, meeting the moon goddess can bring a blessing or a curse. What if she curses you?" Denzel’s figure had already disappeared in the fog, so she assumed he hadn’t heard until his voice resonated through the woods,

"I don’t care. I will do anything for as long as Valerie is fine."

Luna Fernanda stopped, sinking to the floor in the dark. For once, she lost control of her nephew.

Alpha Denzel ran deeper into the woods, screaming mindlessly for the moon goddess. "Selene!"

Desperation was one of the traits to bring out the moon goddess, no matter how busy she was. Those privileged to meet her circulated the news that she always claimed to be busy.

How could they know what she does when she was immortal? As Alpha Denzel ran further and further, he abruptly came to a stop when he saw a female figure ahead.

Her back was turned. Her long platinum blond hair cascaded down her back, all her clothes white. Now that he got what he wanted, he couldn’t help feeling a little scared.

If he messed this up, he could die, and Valerie would live the rest of her life as a human. From the records, for as long as he never saw the face of the moon goddess, he will be fine. This was not a matter of strength, as the moon goddess had the greatest of powers.
