Reclaiming My Broken Luna

: Huge Losses



Drystan's POVContent protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

“Alpha Nolan, maybe you could think about it first. I've already set the schedule, and all the materials are ready to be delivered. It's the worst time for you to cancel." I gripped the telephone tightly in my hand as I begged to make sense with the Alpha of the Nightshade Pack.

Since this morning, my telephone couldn't stop ringing, and every time that I answered the calls, it was always the Alphas I had transactions with that were calling.

All of them also wanted the same thing. They were so eager to cancel all agreements they had with me for no reason. All of the transactions and efforts that I made to ally with a lot of Packs all went down the drain.

Suddenly, everyone wanted to take back all the words that they had said, and none of them could give me a proper reason for it.

"Alpha Nolan, I just woke up, and I haven't even eaten breakfast yet, and a lot of Alphas had already called me and canceled all of our agreements before you. Please, Alpha Nolan, spare me this one. Just accept this first batch of delivery, and after that, I'm ready to cancel everything," I pleaded with him.

This morning, I woke up because of the calls that I've been receiving. My personal phone and the telephone couldn't stop ringing. I've received ten cancellations within just an hour, and Alpha Nolan is the eleventh person who wanted to cancel his transaction with me.

This is not even half of the Alphas who wanted to cancel or terminate any transactions and alliances with me.

"You don't need to have those materials delivered, Drystan. Even if you have it delivered, I will only return it back. You are only wasting both our time and money."

I shut my eyes tight as I pressed my hand on my forehead in frustration. "But Alpha, I had all these materials reserved just for you. I will suffer huge losses if you don't take it," I replied as calmly as I could.

I've suffered enough losses from the ten cancellations that I received. I don't even know how the Pack is going to get by because of the boycotting that happened.

"I don't fucking care, Drystan!" Alpha Nolan yelled at me from the phone, shocking me. "I already made transactions from a different Pack. I have no need for your materials anymore. Now stop forcing me to do business with you anymore, alright?! I don't want to have anything to do with you in the future!"

With that, Alpha Nolan dropped the call, and the telephone started to ring again.

I sighed as I put down the phone. Unable to control my anger, I pulled the telephone from the line, making it stop ringing anymore.

I gripped the edge of my table until my knuckles turned white. How am I going to deal with these losses anymore?"

"Alpha Drystan," Caden barged into the room with urgency in his voice.

"That scumbag! I never forced him into anything. He was the one who approached me and made an agreement with me during the werewolf assembly," I hissed as I held in my anger.

"Alpha, I think I know why they are cancg their alliances with us," Caden spoke from behind me.

I stood up straight and turned around to face him. "What did you find?" I asked him with a straight face.

Caden lowered his gaze. "The news

e

about your affair with Astrid is going around. Everyone thinks that you and Astrid were having an affair while she was still married. They also think that you really impregnated Astrid."

My body ran cold when I heard his words. No wonder why everyone is calling to cancel any partnership with me on the same day.

"Drystan!" Our heads turned to the door when someone called my name.

When I looked up, I saw Astrid panting with Nova worriedly holding her arm.

"Astrid? You shouldn't be running around you're pregnant," I spoke worriedly as I approached her.

"I tried to stop her, but she wouldn't listen," Nova answered. "She ran here as soon as she heard the news."

I sighed. It seems the news had already reached the Pack. "Was anyone being mean to Astrid?" I asked Nova, thinking that this rumor would also ruin Astrid's reputation.

"Who would dare if you are their

Alpha?" Nova retorted. "You gave them a home when they were unwanted and banished from their Pack. If it wasn't for you, they

iel

wouldn't be given a second chance

in their life," Nova answered.

Since the Nightsong Pack is relatively new, All our Pack members come from different backgrounds Some were rogues seeking shelters, and others were bullied and abused by members from other Packs who came here for their safety.

"Don't worry, Astrid. I will explain everything to our Pack members.”

I was about to step out to deal with my Pack members when Astrid suddenly grabbed my arm to stop me.

"That's not why I'm here," Astrid answered in between breaths. "I came here to know the situation of our Pack."

My body froze at her question. As a late Luna, of course, she knows how bad rumors and bad reputations also affect the Pack.

"You don't have to think about that. I can handle everything," I answered her firmly.

Astrid tightened her grip on my arm until my skin turned red. "How many losses, Drystan? How many Alphas canceled their partnership with us?" Astrid asked me with full seriousness.

Nova just stared at me with wide eyes.
