ANOTHER LUNA

Elowen's POV

My ears perked up in my sleep, picking up sounds and I slowly opened my eyes to see a lady in my room, changing the flower by the windows.

I groaned, my head aching as I sat up and she faced me, surprised to see me awake.

"You're awake, Luna," she smiled warmly at me, making me frown. She looks my age but she had this air around her that told me she wasn't human neither was she a werewolf. If she was, my wolf might have felt a spark of connection to her.

"Who are you?"

"I'm Hayley, Luna and I'll be your personal maid from now on," she bowed slightly, bubbling with excitement and it made me irritated. I just couldn't understand what was so exciting and why she wouldn't stop smiling.

"First of all, can you quit calling me Luna?" I told her and her smile finally dropped.

"What should I call you Lu—"

"My name is Elowen," I cut her shut, not wanting to hear the name, Luna.

"But, Alpha Liam will have my head if he hears me call you that," she replied, looking scared but I totally ignored her, less bothered.

"Liam and Ethan," I muttered under my breath, recalling my last moments with them before losing consciousness. I had no idea what the moon goddess was playing at by giving me two mates right after being rejected, losing my father and being betrayed by my pack but I wasn't playing this game with her.

I clenched my fist in anger, my heart burning in fury as thoughts of Caden and Raven passed through my head. I lost my baby because of them.

I was going to make them pay even if I die trying.

"The look in your eyes tells me you plan to kill someone. Care to tell me who is on your hit list?" Ethan asked, relaxing on the doorway.

"Alpha Ethan," The maid smiled gleefully, her eyes twinkling in excitement as she ogled him. A growl escaped my lips and she immediately looked away, muttering incoherent words under her lips.

Ethan smirked, his eyes dancing in amusement and it made me irritated. I can't believe I just growled at the maid. I'm not even interested in him, I tried convincing myself even though I knew I was lying to myself. I avoided his eyes hating the way he made me feel.

"Excuse us Hayley," Ethan said, dismissing her and she bowed slightly before walking away, leaving just us alone in the room.

"I didn't take you as the jealous type."

I glared at him, my face flushed with embarrassment. "I was not jealous," I denied defensively and he chuckled, walking into the room and shutting the door close behind him.

"Fine, let's assume you weren't jealous and I didn't hear you growl to mark your territory, you did look like you were about to kill someone," he drew closer to the bed, settling down on a chair right beside my bed, my body reacting to how close he was.

"Yes, I do want to kill someone," I replied, not denying it and his eyes lit up in surprise. I guess he expected me to deny it but I had no reason to, especially when it was the one reason I'm still alive.

"Who do you want to kill, pumpkin?"

"Elowen," I corrected him. If he heard me, he pretended not to.

"Caden, Raven," I muttered under my breath. He simply watched me, not saying anything as I thought of a million ways to give them the most gruesome death ever. They deserved that much after all they've put through.

"How about I take you out for a little stroll?" He asked, smiling warmly and I couldn't help but get drawn to his eyes. There was something about his eyes that warmed my heart, gave me assurance, and drew me in.

"What do you say, pumpkin?"

I didn't want to have anything to do with him or his brother. My presence in their life will only bring them nothing but pain but the bond was too strong for me to turn away from.

I want to tell him no, the answer is right on the tip of my lips but I couldn't bring myself to say it.

"Pumpkin?" He touched my hair and I jerked back, taken by surprise.

"I think I want to be alone," I squabbled, turning him down. He went silent for a while, simply watching me as though trying to read me. His scrutinizing gaze bore holes into my skin and it made me feel exposed before him.

"You're right, I should probably let you rest," he smiled, getting up and I released the breath I didn't know I was holding. Without warning, he drew closer to me, placing a kiss on my forehead. I froze in shock, not expecting that.

"Get some rest pumpkin," he smiled, walking out of the room and I placed my hand on my chest, my heart beating faster and louder than normal.

I shouldn't be feeling any of this.

I was a freak and the moment they figured out they'd reject me just like Caden and the pack.

Tears filled my eyes as the feeling of loss suddenly watched over me. Caden's words came back to me and as much I hated him and wanted to make him suffer, he was right.

I was a monster.

A monster that should never have existed in the first place.

Because of this, my baby died before she even got to see the world.

A laid back on the bed, consumed by grief as tears rolled down my cheeks, wetting my bed.

"Luna?" Hayley called from outside but I ignored her, pretending to be fast asleep. The door clicked open and I heard her come in. I immediately shut my eyes as she drew closer.

The room fell silent and there was no movement from her. It made me curious. Is she just watching me sleep?

I slowly tore my eyes open, meeting her eyes and I immediately shut it close again but she already caught me.

"Luna," she called.

"Go away," I said, my voice gruff from crying.

"Would you like to eat something?" She asked, reminding me that I haven't fed but I ignored her, deciding not to answer. I wasn't going to drink blood no matter how hungry I was.

"Alpha Liam said I should make sure you get something to eat," she persisted, refusing to take the hint that I wanted to be alone.

"He said I should tell you that if you refuse to feed, he'll be forced to punish me for not doing my work."

I suddenly sat up, facing her.

"He'll punish you?" I frowned and she nodded.

The lifeless eyes of that maid flashed through my head, Liam holding her dead body in his hands like her life meant nothing. I knew he wasn't bluffing if he really threatened to punish Hayley if I don't feed.

"Where is Liam?" I asked.

"He stepped out a while ago. He has business to attend to with his brother," she replied.

I fell into deep thoughts, considering my options. It's either I fed or risk him killing Hayley again. I didn't know her and I shouldn't care what happens to her but the thought of her dying because of me didn't sit well with me. I also wasn't willing to feed from anyone and risk killing them either.

"We have blood bags if you would rather not feed on a human," Hayley said, seeing the conflicted look on my face.

"There are blood bags?" I asked, surprised.

"Yes, there are. But I don't think Alpha Liam will be happy to know you chose to drink from a blood bag instead of drinking directly from the vein."

"I can't drink directly from the vein," I said bluntly and she nodded, totally understanding me.

"I'll go get the blood bag," she said, exiting the room. I pushed my hair backwards, frustrated. I couldn't stay here a second longer. I can't let myself fall for the twin brothers and abandon my revenge. I also can't risk loving them and getting my heart broken again.

I got up from the bed and stepped out of the room, frowning the moment I got out. There were two guards standing at the entrance of my room, they were both vampires. I could also sense vampires around the entire house.

How was I supposed to escape with this many vampires crawling around the entire house?

I walked around the house, totally awed by the grandeur of the house. It was huge and it screamed money.

Not looking at where I was going, I bumped into someone, pushing her to the floor.

"Oh my goddess, I'm so sorry," I immediately apologized, regaining my stamina as I offered her a hand.

She hit my hand away rudely, getting up herself. She eyed me eerily, her facial expression not welcoming.

"And who would you be?" She asked, glaring at me.

"I'm Elowen, who are you," I replied, equally curious.

"Merlin," she flipped her hair arrogantly in my face, acting all cocky.

"I'm Liam's mate, his Luna!" She added, stunning me.

"You're what?"
