“What did you say?” I asked, my hands shivering against my th!ghs.
“Oh nothing.” She straightened with a false smile painting her l!ps. “I just saw something really funny today.” Her smile was disgustingly sweet.
“Are you okay, Luna?” Octavia asked in a small voice from across the table.
“Haven’t you heard? We don’t have a Luna anymore,” Claudia piped up, interrupting her.
“Claudia, you’re not very bright are you?” I clenched my fists to stop them from quivering. “I am still mated to Valens. He is still your Alpha and I am still your Luna whether or not you make snide, unnecessary comments.” She snickered at my words before sauntering off. She may have added an extra sway to her h**s as Jabari looked over.
“She’s just jealous she’d never make it as big as you in life,” Octavia said when Claudia was out of sight. “I’m sure your quarrel with the Alpha will be resolved soon,” she added in a final bid to cheer me up.
“How do you know about that?” I asked her, picking at my food. Jabari and Celeste were back to muttering and it seemed things were getting a bit heated between the two of them.
“Oh, some gossip blog carried it. It’s all over social media.” She looked at me with pity and I hated that look almost as much as I hated the tight spot I’d been shoved into.
“And I’m a part of the Alpha Pack now so uh I heard the Alpha call us on a new ‘adventure’,” she made air quotes around the word adventure.
“Are you leaving then?” I asked. My tastebuds did not register any taste from the food I was forcing myself to eat to save myself the hassle of making eye contact with Octavia.
“Of course not!” The girl exclaimed. “I like this place and I’m sure the Alpha will return soon. There is no need to stress myself packing my things only to unpacking them again.”
Six men entered the dining room before I could answer Octavia. From their build alone, one could tell they were from the Alpha Pack.
“Clover found him,” the man leading the men said to Jabari, paying the rest of us no mind.
Clover. Of course she would be the first person to find him. I wished she would find her mate and leave mine for me.
“You are all set?” The man nodded at Jabari’s question. “Godspeed.” They received his wishes with nods and thanks.
“You are not coming with us?” The lead asked.
“I have a Luna to protect.”
Jabari’s words were not completely out of his mouth when we heard commotion at the door to the dining. Bile rose in my throat and I pushed the tray of food away from me.
“I want to see her, darn it! I have a right to see her.” I swallowed down a lump as I stood from my seat.
I looked around me like someone trapped. I felt trapped. Trapped in this dining room which Lucien could enter at will.
“Aysel?” Someone called me. Celeste.
“I don’t want to see him.” I looked at the door right as Lucien barged in.
“Is he ” Jabari looked from me to Lucien.
“You heard her!” Celeste exclaimed. “She doesn’t want to see him!” The men from the Alpha Pack blocked Lucien’s path to me.
“What the hell is this? I can’t see my friend?” Lucien was yelling, struggling to get through the men.
“I really don’t want to see him,” I repeated.
“Escort him to the dungeons.” One command from Jabari and the men swung into action, bundling a yelling Lucien away from me.
I didn’t know I was crying until Octavia hugged me, squeezing my tightly.
Are we still doing this?’ Zino asked for the tenth time that morning.
‘Yes, we are still doing this,” I snarled at the mutt.
‘She is our mate. We have to forgive her,’ he piped up but I ignored him. Now more than ever, I wanted to silence the voice in my head.
The voice in my head had been my companion since I was a child, had grown and developed with me until my body had the capacity to let it out. Zino and I were best friends and more than best friends, we were one; two parts of a whole.
‘Are you listening to yourself? She cheated on us.’ My wolf went silent at that.
Betrayal was not an easy thing to get over and for a man like me, it was downright unforgivable. With the shitty hand I’d been dealt once again, I wanted to curse the goddess. I had so many questions and only she could give me answers but for over a century, she chose to be silent about the betrayal and bad luck I encountered at every turn in my life.
I’d prayed and waited for a mate for over a century. Not only did it take her an unnecessarily long time to heed my prayers, but she also gave me a mate that was still attached to her ex.
‘What if she didn’t cheat?’ Zino asked in an uncharacteristically subdued voice.
‘Is this a joke?’ He must be joking.
We’d seen the pictures and although I broke my phone in anger after I saw them, one glance was enough to burn them into my memory for a lifetime. Pictures of my mate looking high on pleasure in the arms of a man that wasn’t me.
