Chasing His Betrayed Luna - Chapter 120: Chapter 120

Fiona
Of all the people in the world, he chose her.
Of all the ladies in the world to get married to and mate with, Tristan, the same man who went on his knees and proposed to me, chose Lorraine, the same woman who snatched my destined mate, manipulated our bond with dark magic, made my life a living hell, kidnapped my son and almost killed my kids and myself.
Anger overlapped within me.
Gosh, I had never felt this angry in my entire life.
I didn’t even know I was capable of carrying this much anger in my body without exploding.
Thank goddess I didn’t fall in love with this man. I did feel grateful for the gift of him but now I realized he was more of a curse than a gift.
How could life be so cruel to me?
How could I escape the manipulative version of Lucas only to fall into the trap of a narcissistic man? A twisted Alpha who couldn’t think straight? So the only reason he wanted me was for my power and perhaps he assumed I would help him take over the realm.
But now that I was no longer in the picture- Heck! How long have I been gone?
Although it felt like forever, I was certain It couldn’t have been over a month. It could be a week for all I knew yet he had found a replacement for me. He fucking replaced me with Lorraine, a witch, a killer, a disgusting woman.
Birds of a feather, I guess.
“Control your emotions here, Fiona. The presence is different from the past. These people will sense us if we are not careful and that could endanger our lives.” Susanna warned me again.
Goddess knew I couldn’t bring myself to care about how her powers worked at the moment. I felt used. I felt stupid. I felt like I had been living a lie for six years. “Why would he choose her? This same woman had the chance to be my destined mate’s luna. They threw her a party back then as well and now she is enjoying the same privileges? Why?”
It felt so wrong to see Lorraine thriving even though she was the worst of the worst. She was a bad wolf yet she got to have the fattest bone… she got to live a good life since the beginning of her life.
But look at me.
I tried so hard to be a good person. Fuck that! I didn’t even have to try to be a good person. By default, I was good yet nothing good came my way.
I tried to find Hazel in the hall as I shifted my gaze around, but she wasn’t there. How I wanted to believe she was feeling sorry for stabbing me in the back. How I wanted to think she wasn’t attending the ritual because she was mad on my behalf…. As my best friend.
But I knew better-
“You are losing control. I’ve to take us back, Fiona-” Susanna began, her voice filled with worry.
I countered firmly, “No. I need to see the end of this. I need to understand-”
“What more do you need to understand? He manipulated you and moved on to the next available person as soon as you were no longer in the picture. He thinks you are dead and to get his revenge on Crescent Pack for helping us stop his parents during the great war, he chose to mate with a dark witch. That’s all you need to know, Fiona.” Susanna uttered.
He chose her because he thought I was dead.
What a joke!
“They suit each other.” I found myself saying while rage zapped through me, mixing with the blood in my veins. I snarled, “I could kill them.”
“Yes, you can but right now you have to settle for just snarling. Perhaps when you get your special power, you can make them pay.” Susanna etched and joked, “We won’t be using mine, darling.”
“Let’s go back,” I said to Susanna, ignoring her joke, knowing that I had a lot to learn from the hidden and unknown pack of white wolves.
The pack must have grown out of the few white wolves that escaped during the Great War. Iris told me they were never found – until they found me at the point of death.
Susanna did her thing and the last thing I saw before my soul returned to my body was Tristan tying the knot with Lorraine and crowing her his Luna before his pack. They celebrated regardless of my supposed death and I felt nothing but hatred for them all.
“They will pay.” Those were the first three words I said as soon as I could feel myself in my body again.
Susanna let go of my hand and as much as I wanted to thank her for showing me the truth, I could only feel anger on my tongue. The only words that my tongue was capable of saying were curses and even the purifying water failed to calm me.
“Relax, child. Anger will taint you further and block your energy beyond repair. Control it and turn it into positive energy.” Mia Lu said to me.
But how could I do that? How will I achieve that when I can only see red?
“Of course, you can. Just focus and let the water calm you. Stop fighting.” Mia Lu stated, giving a direct answer to my thought.
I stuttered with furrowed brows, “You can hear my thoughts?”
“Among other things, yes.” Mia Lu answered and before I could say another word, she added, “It’s left to you to grow enough to block me out.”
And I said, “Teach me. Help me grow.”
I was tired of living like a puppet. I was done with being half of myself.
I was a white wolf who just found her people, I might as well start acting like one… If it’s not too late.
“It’s never too late, Child.” Mia Lu assured me, reading my thoughts again.
But I didn’t mind. After all, I couldn’t take Hazel’s betrayal off my mind. Considering the number of people who have betrayed me, starting with Lucas, I should be called the Betrayed Luna.
