Chapter 112
The shadow wolves swirled around us in a vortes of darkness. I whimpered as I closed my eyes and pressed my face in Lucien’s chest. A chill crawled over my skin as they slithered around us. My breath got lodged in my throat, and instinct screamed at me to run, to shift, to fight, to do something. But my body refused to move.
They circled my belly in eerie silence. My heart pounded so loudly that I could hear it in my ears, anticipating that they would attack me. But there: was no attack. Just a cold inspection.
And then the shadows hissed.

The shadows left our bodies and retreated. They gathered over the altar, billowing like a living entity
“They have sensed in the Shaman murmured as he watched them. The bond between you. It’s strength. They had expected the Alpha to reject his lowly omega mate, to cast her aside as Vaslof had done before to Naqia. But you didn’t. You chose her, Kept her Claimed her. And now, the shadow wolves see her as your Luna.”
Lucien took a deep breath in “So as the curse broken?” Lucien dared to ask.
My chest tightened with raw emotion as I finally looked up at him, All I found was pure joy and pure devotion. Then something else caught my eye His thom–vine tattoos. They had once wrapped around him in dark, jagged lines, the ones that had mirrored mine on the back.
Shock blasted inside me. “Your tattoos!” I rasped. He also looked down at his body. “They are mostly gone?” I couldn’t believe what I was seemne Most of the thorny vine tattoos had gone, leaving fair skin in their wake. The only tattoo that he had now was that of a wolf covering his right chest and a few thomy vines there. That wolf was his real birth tattoo.
He also looked at his torso. “Goddess! They are gone.” A shudder passed through his body. I sensed relief and exhilaration through our bond. It felt like he experienced a century of relief. For a long while, his eyes were glued to his body as if searching for tattoos, but apart from the ones around his tattoo on the right ones, there were none. He traced his fingers over the loos on the chest. The thorny vines out there seemed to move a line. His breath lurched and he stopped.
The Shaman took a step toward us, but stopped when the shadow wolves hissed toward him in a flash of a movement. “The curse has mostly broken,” he said, careful of the shadows. “But I don’t know why some of it still remains?” He appeared irritated as the shadows swirled around his

A week later, I sat in the main hall, not feeling well. In the morning I had porked. like going for training or had the energy to stroll in the garden.

Loocked an eyebrow “What do you mean?”
She hesitated and added. “I mean, you smell like..” She looked at Lucien who was glaring at her for no reason.“like Alpha.” She blushed heavily
1 blushed heavily as well because in the morning Lucien had filled me up with his cum. Gritting my teeth, I glanced at Lucien and he had this smug look on his face. Goddess, I wanted to wipe that look.
“Maybe, you should go to the hospital, Vivi said in a low voice.
Yes, I am taking her there,” Lucien announced. He got up a and called Dr. Elias to fix an appointment
An hour later, Lucien cut through the training and come to take me to the hospital. When we reached there, Elias made me go through a variety of tests. At the end of it, when we were sitting in his room, he smiled as he read the test results. His next words made my world shift.
“Congratulations, Luna. You’re pregnant.”
My eyes widened, Pregnant? I was carrying Lucien’s pup. Goosebumps lined my skin. A soft gasp left as my fingers trembled. I pressed my hand against my belly. The knowledge that a life–our life–was growing inside me filled me with indescribable emotions.
In a flash of a moment, Lucien moved. He let out a yelp and was in front of me. He dropped to his knees before me as his large hands cupped my
“Now I know why you smelled different,” he said, his eyes moist with unshed tears of happiness. His fingers slipped under my shirt. He brushed reverently over my stomach. “You’re carrying my pup,” he murmured in awe, possessiveness lacing his voice. He pressed his forehead against my belly and encircled my waist with his arms as if he wanted to shield both and our pup from the world.
My fingers went to his hair, which I stroked gently, lovingly. “We are going to be parents,” I said.
He lifted his head and nodded, his throat bobbing. “And I can’t wait to see my pup.” He got up and gave me his hand. I took it and he tugged me up. Then he looked at Elias and said. Thanks Elias. You’ve made my day!”
As Elias laughed, we both left. It was a beautiful day for both of us. Yet, through our bond, I could sense his restlessness. After our encounter at the Eldermere ruins with shadow wolves, we were both hopeful and cautious about our future. Was it possible that the curse lifted?
