Atticus offers me his arm and I hesitantly loop my hand around it and allow him to guide me over tothem.
What do I do? Goddess, what do I do?
I’m dragging my feet, walking slowly as Sebastian’s piercing blue eyes continue to burn into me, as if delaying it will somehow stop me from having to come face-to-face with him.
Suddenly someone knocks into me, and something cold splashes down my arm and over the skirt of my dress.
I gasp, my foot catching in the hem of my gown, making me stumble. I grab onto Atticus, my other hand going to my belly protectively, just as Sebastian steps forward, almost as if to grab hold of me, but whoever bumped into me grabs my upper arm, pulling me back.
“Shit, sorry! I am so sorry!”
Jai?
I turn to look at the man who has ruined my dress.
My saviour…
“I am so sorry, miss,”
he says apologetically, as a snarl rips through Atticus’s throat.
“You will be more careful. If anything happened to my woman, you…”
His woman?
“It was a mistake, and she’s ok. I’m sorry Alpha,”
Jai says, raising his hands in defence.
His gaze dips to mine, and his eyes soften.
He did it on purpose as he recognised me…
“Get out of here before you are forced out.”
Atticus spits venomously.
“You should know better than to threaten my men,”
Sebastian growls.
Their auras are raging around them as the ballroom falls silent.
“It’s alright, I’m ok,”
I murmur, keeping my head down as I gather my wet skirts. “I’ll just go clean up.”
I spot Valerie, who is standing beside Jai, but there’s no way I’ll be able to speak to her now.
“Excuse me,”
I murmur to Atticus before I pull away gently.
I look back, worried for Jai, when I see Sebastian block Atticus’s path.
His gaze flicks to me almost as if he knows I’m watching them and I quickly turn away, and hurry into the crowd…
I reach the side hall, making my way to the bathroom. My heart is thudding and only when my phone vibrates, and I fumble with the latch on my clutch bag do I realise that I’m shaking.
VALERIE: I’m coming, wait in the bathroom.
Goddess, that was nerve-wracking.
I walk over to the sink and open the faucet, staring at my reflection.
Thank God Jai came. I hope he doesn’t get into trouble…
This was not how the evening was meant to go…
I bite my lip, feeling my heart clench.
He even brought her here… but obviously, why wouldn’t he?
I don’t know why it’s upsetting me. I know that we never heard anything about my divorce, and there was no rumour about Annalise becoming the Luna. Even Val told me that… but what was Iexpecting? Them not to be together?
But… they are together regardless of if she’s the official Luna. If it wasn’t for his parents, she would be Luna already. I am certain they are the only ones stopping her from becoming Luna.
“So, this is where you’ve been cooped up for the last few months.”
I freeze when the bathroom is pushed right open and none other than Annalise steps inside, shutting the door behind her.
She knew it was me…
“Oh please, we aren’t in one of your stupid romance novels where a mask is going to keep your identity a secret. You made a good attempt with the makeup, but you’re still Zaia.”
She sneers.
“And what do you want?”
I ask, turning to her.
“I just thought I’d come to see my precious sister. I never thought you’d move on so fast. And there you were acting all broken-hearted. Trying to buy pity.”
I scoff, smirking.
“Really Annalise? And why should I remain brokenhearted? I’m over Sebastian and I really don’tcare what he does with his life. As you said, I’ve moved on.”
“Oh? And does Alpha Atticus know you’re his rival’s ex-Luna? Or did you somehow trick him into getting you pregnant to trap him?”
“He knows everything, don’t you worry,”
I mutter. How petty is she. “I’m not the type to trap anyone, Annalise. Whatever I do, I do openly.”
“Yet you clearly slept with him the moment you rejected Sebastian…”
She trails off as if something suddenly occurred to her.
She frowns, staring at my belly, and I place a hand on it protectively. There’s a glimmer of confusion in her eyes.
“You look at least eight months…”
she mutters. Her face pales and she stares at me, as realisation dawns upon her. “No… No… tell me it’s not true… it shouldn’t have happened…”
“What’s wrong Annalise, does it hurt to know that I’m carrying your man’s child?”
I’m not planning on telling her I’m carrying twins. I also know my secret is safe enough with her. She will not tell Sebastian because she wants him all for herself.
Her eyes flash as she curses.
“How dare you! You-you can’t be pregnant! You miscarried…. Val-Valerie said… the bitch lied.”
“Don’t call her a bitch.”
I warn, my eyes blazing. “You clearly aren’t happy in your own life, Annalise, if you have to interfere in mine. Neither can you accept the fact that, despite carrying Sebastian’spup, no one wants to see you as his Luna. Tell me, have you come here to try to rain on my parade?”
She looks offended. “What?”
she scoffs.
“You heard me. Are you that unsatisfied in your life that you find happiness in hurting others?”
I ask icily.
She clenches her jaw, touching her stomach. “Don’t get so full of yourself, Zaia. The pack knows that this baby is their future Alpha, as for your child, if-“
The door opens, and she stops as Valerie freezes, looking between us.
Annalise looks between us before she claps slowly.
“Oh? So, you knew your precious friend was here, that’s why you were so adamant to come along. I wonder if Sebastian would be happy to hear that.”
She sneers.
“I can handle him,”
Valerie replies confidently, her eyes cold as she glares at Annalise. “You should go. There were several women all over Sebastian and he doesn’t seem to be missing you.”
That makes her tense before she turns back to me.
