Elara's POV

“I know that the baby bump was fake.”

The moment my mother said those words, I couldn't move. I couldn't even spun around to look at her. My grip grew weaker around the bag and it hit the floor with a loud thud. My body was trembling as I wished.... that the ground could just open up and swallow me alive.

Mother knows. She knows I have been deceiving her since I came in today. How? I looked down on the baby bump. Was it so noticeable? But it looked real to me.

"But it's fine," she said again. "I understand the reason why you had to do it. And I'm grateful that you did it. Concerning your father's condition today, it would have worsened if I asked you about the baby in his presence and you told me you lost it."

Squeezing my eyes closed, I bit down on my lower lips trying to steady the storm brewing inside me. Then I forced myself to look back at her. She was already standing, forcing a smile that did not reach her eyes.

"How...." I muttered. "How did you know about this?"

  • I AM BETRAYED BY THE MOON   Chapter 194

    Elara's POV“What is your real name!“ I snapped.“Elara…” he tried to step closer again.“Don't,” I spat, beckoning to him not to move, which he obeyed. “If you ever feel bad about our child's death, then tell me your real name, Damian.“It was silent for a while. His gaze looked like someone who was helpless. “Damian Stormrider.“Stormrider, is it?For four years, I had answered the name Darkmoor. What betrayal is even more cutting than that? Everything that is between us has always been built on lies and deceit. Whatever it is that we shared was already over even before it began. I was stupid to still harbour those useless feelings earlier.And now, I will be free from this man who had been my tormentor.“I, Elara Cadman of the Cadman pack, reject you, Damian Stormrider as my mate and Luna.“He just shook his head in disagreement. “No…. no, no.““Accept my rejection,” I snapped, wiping my tears with the back of my hands.“I won't accept it,” he says softly. “You can hate me all you

  • I AM BETRAYED BY THE MOON   Chapter 193

    Elara's POV “I will divorce you and then reject you as my mate and Luna.“The words hung in the air with an intensity that ripped the air off my lungs. I opened my mouth to talk but no words came out. I was supposed to be happy, right? Over the moon that I'm leaving this sithole and that I will finally be free from this bastard but I wasn't.My chest tightened with pain like a dagger was piercing through it. My hands trembled slightly as I tried to gain control of myself but I couldn't. And Damian was staring at me with an unreadable but calm expression, yet his gaze seems to be sending daggers towards me. He furrowed his brows, obviously expecting me to say something but I couldn't. Not even a word formed at the back of my mind.I swallowed hard, trying to steady myself.“Well…. That's fine,” I lied.A blatant lie.The truth is, I'm not sure what I feel exactly.“Well.“ He stood up, and walked towards me, circling me like I was his prey and about to be devoured. “That's fine?“ He

  • I AM BETRAYED BY THE MOON   Chapter 192

    Elara's POV I swallowed hard, and started walking closer, chin up, shoulders high and gaze as hard as stone. Yes, it was all a look I had put together to tell them that I might no longer be in power but I won't let anyone trample over me. And I deeply regretted lowering my eyes earlier. I did nothing wrong, so I shouldn't be scared or feel guilty, isn't it? The guards did like they didn't notice me at first, but when I reached the door, one of them stepped in front of it, obstructing it with his huge frame. “Excuse me,” I said, my voice as cold as it could be. “I want to see the Alpha.“ “No,” he simply said, looking down on me briefly. No? His tone wasn't disrespectful but not respectful either. It was dismissive. Like I was a child who was supposed to just obey him. I stepped closer to him. “I. Need. To. See. The. Alpha,” I said each word with a chill in it, hoping that he'd catch that I wasn't here to play or joke around. “I. Said. No.“ He returned the same energy. I clenche

  • I AM BETRAYED BY THE MOON   Chapter 191

    Elara's POV I paced around my scattered room which I assumed Damian's guards would have caused while searching for evidence to prove the affairs which never existed.Kael's words echoed in my mind more times than necessary. Each time send cold shivers that hits harder than the last down my spine “Even Damian is a pawn in this game.“What exactly does that mean? Does that mean even Damian might not be able to fight him? Let alone, stop him. What could he be planning? Why did he sound so confident?He has plans of taking away my father's pack and I would never let him. I have to talk to Damian about this. Warn him of the impending danger but would he even listen to me? Not with everything that just happened, would he even trust that I'm speaking the truth?First, I have to get evidence to prove that Gomez and I weren't involved in any affairs. I can't let the person who is like a father to me get punished for something he knows nothing about. I also have to find a way to show everyone

  • I AM BETRAYED BY THE MOON   Chapter 190

    Elara's POVMy eyes drifted towards him and he was smiling from ear to ear. And I knew instantly that I was right. The bastard set us up. Either alone or with Lyra.He stepped closer, his hands folded at his back.“I bet you didn't see this coming Luna,” he sneered, watching me with calculated gaze like he wanted to notice a crack in my calm demeanor. “Oh… sorry, former Luna.““You did this, right?“ I asked calmly. “You set us up. You really are a coward. Always hiding behind cheap tricks.“He laughed, the sound—sharp and mocking echoed through the room. “What evidence do you have that I did this?“Before I realised what was happening, Gomez threw a punch to his face. His hard blow washed the smirk off his face, his head snapping to the side.“You bastard,” Gomez says, his chest heaving with unrestrained fury. “I will kill you. I swear it.“Kael turned his face to us and a wider grin spread on his face. With a single flick of his fingers, he summoned the guards over. “Take him back t

  • I AM BETRAYED BY THE MOON   Chapter 189

    Elara's POV “I will crown Lyra as Luna instead.”Those weren't just words. No—far from it. It was a knife piercing through my heart, and ripping it. The words hurt more than I cared to admit, but I swallowed it all.I didn't break down. I didn't say anything. Didn't even act like I heard his decree. I know I have lost my place here and there was no need to fight a lost cause.Lyra.She won.She actually becomes the Luna that she had wanted all this while. She is actually in control now. She wasn't in the hall but I could imagine vividly the confident and triumphant smirk on her face. I could already feel how much she was going to flaunt the title and make my life a living hell. How she would make me feel the heat of everything that had happened between us in the past.But then…. maybe it's high time, she experienced the title she so much desired and see what it's like. And see if it's all rosy.Gomez exchanged a glance with me. His face was so sad and twisted with a quilt like he w
