Chapter 8

Damian's injuries were declared incurable three years ago.

Now that he's paralyzed again, there's no one who can save him.

After consulting several powerful werewolf physicians, he completely gave up hope for treatment.

He no longer handles pack affairs, spending each day just sitting in his wheelchair, staring blankly at the Moon Goddess Garden where we once lived together.

This is the sacred place he built with his own hands for the Moon Soul Wolf, and where we most often kept each other company.

In the past, I would often nestle in his arms, recounting the legends of the Moon Goddess under the moonlight.

Now the garden is empty, with no trace of my existence to be found.

He wheels himself slowly, gently caressing every moonflower and moonstone I once touched.

But those are just cold objects, without a hint of my lingering scent.

Until he reaches the clearing in the center of the garden.
