Dean pov..

"I uttered those words, asking Sierra, 'Will you be my Luna?' In that moment, my heart poured out all the emotions I had been holding inside.

Anxiously, I waited for her response, hoping with every fiber of my being that she would agree. The anticipation of her answer made my heart race, as I yearned to hold her tightly if she said yes.

Uncertainty gnawed at me, questioning the rightness of my decision. Yet, the overpowering emotions within me refused to be silenced.

Linda stood beside me, her face a reflection of the pain she felt when I uttered those words to Sierra. Although Linda was my fiancée, her presence had become unbearable. Since meeting Sierra, my heart longed to win her love and spend eternity by her side.

Sierra, a lonely wolf carrying a child, had endured years of solitude without anyone's support. I had promised to care for her, but when she tragically lost her baby, doubt clouded my mind.

She gazed at me, her eyes filled with a mixture of longing and defiance. Her desire to leave and start anew was evident. However, by making her my Luna, I could ensure she would never be alone.

"Dean," her soft whisper barely reached my ears, tears streaming down her face, "I'm sorry, Dean, but I can't marry you."

Her words pierced through me like a thousand needles, and for a moment, the world seemed to disappear, leaving me in darkness.

As she turned to walk away, I held her hands tightly, still on one knee, my heart heavy with sorrow, and looked up at her.

"Please, Sierra, even if you can't be my Luna, just stay."

The thought of losing her was unbearable, and I refused to let her slip away.

But just as we stood there, locked in this heart-wrenching scene, my hands were wrenched from hers. I turned to see Linda, her face twisted with anger and tears, staring at me in fury."

"I can't believe you're repaying me like this after everything I've done for you."

Her hurtful words didn't affect me because my attention was solely on Sierra.

Determined, I stood up, facing Linda, and tightly clasped Sierra's hands against my chest.

"Sierra will be my Luna now, so it's best if you leave my castle."

My voice reverberated with such intensity that it felt like the words were resonating within me.

Linda's gaze pierced me, brimming with evident pain, causing Sierra to shrink back and lower her head, too afraid to meet her eyes.

"Fuck you!" Linda spat out angrily as she distanced herself from us. "I'll make you pay," she yelled, turning on her heels and fleeing from the castle, leaving Sierra and me alone.

After a minute or so, I directed my attention to Sierra, still with her head bowed. With gentle hands, I lifted her gaze, meeting her eyes as I spoke.
