Freya's Pov“What do you mean she's gone?” I asked, looking at all their faces.“We woke up to this,” Rachael said, showing the letter Loretta had written, “it was for you,” Merona chipped in.“Give it here,” I snatched it and read:Hey, Freya. I'm sorry for spoiling your beautiful morning this way, I just can't stay here with you, I have to return to Artemis, give him a false report and try to stall his little attack or see what I can do. I feel like a hypocrite staying by your side after selling you out. Let me return and face my fate, where we may meet again. I hope on the moon goddess that we will reunite, even in the underworld. Loretta loves you.I clutched the paper and vibrated from anger and ache in my chest.“How dare she?” I spun and faced the others.“She felt like a hypocrite? She's been through too much yet…,” I scoffed, tears pricking by the side of my eyes, “yet she still wants to play the hero? Why must she go to him, he's a m
Freya's Pov“What?” I gasped in shock, “no,” I whispered, unable to believe my eyes.“I see, you like my little surprise?” Artemis asked with that sickening smile of his.“Loretta,” I whispered. She was held by some guards, her mouth had burts and she was bleeding from her lips.“You are a psycho,” I lunched forward but I was instantly held back by Tobias.“Let her come, she's the one I came here for. She's a traitor,” he said in disdain.“You are a traitor and a monster, how dare you!” I yelled.“How dare I?” he asked, “give her to me and you can go scott free then your little friend here may be safe,” he said looking down to Loretta.“Go fuck yourself!” Tobias spat, “you'll never have her,” he growled.“Very well then, you've spoken for yourself however I want to hear her opinion, your life for them,” he said with a glint in his eyes. Expectant of what my choice would be.They were right, I was Luna after all, so sacrificing myself for my people and pack seemed worth it, as long as
Freya's PovTwo months later We were seated in the living room, back in The Eastwood pack. Alpha Rex and his wife were seated across from me. And then there was Tobias, poker faced by my side.“I'm sorry Freya for all the pains I put you through, for selling you and for betraying your father,” Alpha Rex apologized.“Yes, we.. We are so very sorry,” his mate added by his side.It was a long time ago, and I had moved on but I wasn’t sure we could be one happy family. Impossible.“So why did you? Why did you sell her out?” Tobias was well and by my side, he was still just as angry at his father.“Because Artemis wanted her, saw her serving on one of the meetings, he knew right then and there that she was his mate. He made me give her up or else he would destroy the pack, it was a foolish thing to do,” he took a pause and peered at me, “I’m sorry, please forgive me,” he apologized once more.“And why did you betray her father, all this wouldn’t have happened if you weren’t a coward,” Tob
Freya POV "Hurry up bitch! You think I got the whole time in the world for this shit you are doing?" That's Evelyn, my half-sister. Being a half-sister would have been like she treated me like a sister—at least half the time—but that isn't the case. So far, all she has done is yell at me, pull me by the hair, call me all sorts of names, and ditch around the phone. Her fingerprints are still on my left cheek for trying to talk back at her—what a stupid thing for me to do.As a matter of fact, she lived to cause me pain. Every breath she took sent a shiver down my spine and her only source of pleasure was found in tormenting me; and it would be unfair to call her a half-sister. But since I was adopted by some wicked parents who were no different from her—they are worse—there isn't any choice than accept the cruel card dealt on me by the moon goddess. I rolled my eyes for what felt like the millionth time. That's the only thing I could do. Not much. In fact, nothing. Even at this, I
Freya povI have no vivid memories of my mother. The memories were fuzzy whenever I tried to recall. I clearly don't remember her face or what she looked like and over time, I stopped trying. It's a bottomless pit trying to recall people who never truly registered in memory. Or maybe they did register and the years of slavery erased the whole thing. But the one thing I know for sure is that my mom—the woman who gave birth to me—is nothing compared to the devil trailing my footsteps. A shiver ran through my knee when I took the first step. Trouble. A ticking time bomb waiting to explode as she trailed behind. I, on the other hand, shuffled forward like a lost dog who just got found by its owner. Well, I happen to be the lost dog in the case, and Mrs Rex, would be the owner. "Move faster!" she yanked, spanking my back. I expect nothing from the woman who hated me with all her guts. Nothing but pain, which now coursed down my spine. I asked on a few occasions the reason for her hatr
Freya pov If anybody had told me the murderous Artemis would be my mate, I would have said it's a goddamn lie but life, they say, is filled with surprises. "Are you OK, are you OK?"The words seemed to be from a dream—that would be a bad dream—except it wasn't a dream even though I desperately wanted it to be. I just wanted to wake up and realized none of this is real. This is all a dream. But no. This ain't a dream. This is real because the words are from the murderer who now called himself my husbandOf course I am OK. But I'm not OK being alive anymore. I'm not OK with marrying a murderer. And I'm OK with someone who would probably kill me in myself. With the way he threatened alpha Rex, the dots are beginning to connect. This explains why Evelyn snickered the whole time. That's not bad. At least she will finally get a chance to be at my funeral soon, that's if my body is ever found. I found my feet. My gown wasn't ruined and I guess my mate stopped me from falling to the grou
Freya pov My eyes twitched at the sight of the morning sun, pulling me awake. My body still aches from the previous day's ordeal. Maybe it was the wedding where I fell or the long ride to this new home. Yes. So far so good, it felt like home even though my brain couldn't understand why. Still recovering from my tiredness, I flipped to the other side thinking I might get the rare chance to see him while asleep but I released a sigh of frustration when my arm met an empty bed. Did I sleep here alone? I can't say or guess anything because it looks like nobody slept here but me. My eyes roamed around the room and for the first time, I saw the detailed decoration. Everything is designed and made of gold and the chandelier shined with diamonds but I still cannot figure out how I got here. Perhaps I sleep-walked my way. That's the only possible explanation. I shoved the blanket aside and slumped my feet into some fancy slippers. Shower.That's all I wanted at the moment. A huge room that
Artemis Pov Don't run, it's time to pay for your crimes. I jerked and tossed the blanket aside when I heard a loud scream. Damn it. Another bad dream, and they become scary everytime. It's even worse this time because I felt a hot liquid being poured on my head. A voice which threatened to make me pay for my crimes preceded the torture. Sitting upright, I contemplated for a while. My forehead littered with drops of sweat as I continued to wonder.A man like me has many enemies. I've made enemies over the years that I can barely keep count of—most of which are dead. I found my feet when I heard the scream a second time. This isn't a dream anymore. This must be real and I recognized the voice.But what the hell happened this time?And I'm about to find out when I dashed to the elevators. I didn't even realize I got down naked except the pair of pants hanging from my waist. And I only became aware of this when I saw the eyes staring at me. But none of that mattered when I saw her hol
