Rejected And Betrayed: Chasing My Luna Back. 167. Her true colors.
EVEYLN The hall was breathtaking. Soft lights glowed against polished floors, and gold-trimmed decorations gave the room a regal touch. It felt like we’d stumbled into an exclusive party. Only two other guests had arrived, wandering the space with the same curious gaze as us."Remove your hands," I said, nudging John beside me.He raised an eyebrow, smirking. "I think you should remove yours first."I glanced down and realized he was right. My hands were still on his. I quickly pulled them back as he let out a small scoff."This is so amazing," John said, his eyes still scanning the grand setup.I nodded. "I’ll be right back," I told him.He gave me a reassuring smile. "I can manage."I rolled my eyes and turned toward the hallway leading to the back of the palace. That’s where they were getting the Luna ready. I pushed open the door quietly and stepped inside.There she was, standing in front of a tall mirror, admiring her dress—a stunning gown of shimmering navy blue and gold that

EVEYLNHours had passed since my meeting with Mimi. I wandered back and forth in my room, the soft rustle of my dress brushing against the carpet. The door creaked open as a few maids wheeled in racks of gowns, their colors glinting under the light. I stood there, arms crossed, eyes scanning the rows of fabric, unsure of what to wear.My phone buzzed, breaking the silence. I glanced at the screen, Winnie. A smile tugged at my lips as I answered."Don’t you know you’re supposed to be here before anyone else?" she scolded playfully.I let out a breath, half-laughing. "Relax, I’m still trying to pick out something to wear. I’ll get there before everyone else, I promise. But... can I ask you something?""What’s bothering my favorite girl?" she asked, her tone softening."Will Giovanni be there?""Of course," she replied without hesitation. "He’s one of the special guests. Even John’s coming, I'm inviting him because of you. Reuben wasn’t exactly thrilled about it, though."l nodded slowly

EVEYLNMimi stood frozen, her head bowed so low her chin nearly touched her chest. Then, slowly, she dropped to her knees. I shook my head, heart aching at the sight.“No, dear, stand up,” I said softly, walking toward her.She shook her head quickly, pushing my hands away with trembling fingers. “No... I can’t.”Her voice cracked as she looked up at me, eyes glassy with tears. “I’ve done things, things I don’t even deserve forgiveness for. But please, Evelyn... forgive me. I did it for my son. They promised full treatment for him. I thought he’d finally get better.” She choked on her words. “But when I found out they never paid a dime, it was too late... I had no choice.”She broke into sobs as she wiped her tears and she crawled closer, desperate for my forgiveness. I stood still, unable to speak. A long sigh escaped me as I looked down at her. “Come on, sit down on the bed first,” I said gently, guiding her. “You’re not discharged yet, and you’re still healing. Don’t stress yourse

DIANE“Pick up your call!” I shouted, stabbing Giovanni’s number on the screen again. Nothing. The call wouldn’t go through.“Are you seriously ignoring me? Pick up your damn phone!” I snapped, my voice rising with each word.With a growl, I hurled the phone to the floor. It clattered against the tiles and slid under the table.“Ahhhhhh!” I screamed, dragging both hands through my hair, tugging at the roots. My chest rose and fell in sharp bursts.This couldn’t be real. I had planned everything, every detail perfect, every step designed to fall in my favor. And now John of all people was ruining it?I grabbed my car keys and stormed out of the house, slipping into the driver’s seat and speeding off.How the hell did they get the footage? Was it that snake, Andrew? But I deleted it, wiped my face clean from it. So how could they possibly have it?When I reached the Nightshade Pack, I parked and stepped out of the car. Eyes turned toward me. Some people stared like I was a walking scand

EVEYLNI didn’t understand what John was trying to do until he turned to Diane.“What nonsense,” Diane snapped.“Let me make this clear,” John said. “If you ever call a meeting like this again without telling me, I won’t overlook it next time.”He rose to his feet. Diane was shaking, her fists clenched, her chest rising and falling quickly. As John stepped forward, she suddenly spoke again.“I hope you all see the kind of man he is,” she said, voice trembling. “This is just a part of what I’ve been living through. And I’m still here. Still surviving.”She paused, wiping at her face. “We haven’t even talked about how… how he lets his mistress lay hands on me. Just because I can’t bear children.” Her voice broke. “Who knows what she did to me to make me this way?”She sank into her chair, crying softly. Around the table, the elders looked at her with pity. One sighed. Another shook his head. All six sat quietly, swayed by the sadness in her face. “Alpha John, we, the elders have come t

EVEYLNThe next morning, I walked into the Silvermoon Pack’s meeting room, my heart thudding as I recalled the mysterious message last night about this meeting going to be held and I must participate in it. A group of elders sat before me, their faces drawn tight with anger. Their eyes followed my every move as I took the seat opposite them. John trailed in behind me and to my surprise, he sat beside me instead of taking his rightful place at the head of the table.“John…” I whispered, keeping my voice low.I knew he heard me, his slight pause gave it away but he didn’t look at me, didn’t move. I caught the flicker of shock in the elders’ eyes as they stared at him, clearly noticing the break in protocol. "I'm glad you're all here, listening to my complaints," Diane said as she settled into the chair beside where John should have been sitting, the Alpha's seat.An elder cleared his throat. "Alpha John, we all know that Alphas are entitled to more than one Luna. But Diane has shown t

JOHN"Where are we going?" Solomon asked, his voice edged with curiosity as I paused by the car door and let out a slow sigh.I pulled open the back door and slid in without a word. A second later, he got into the driver’s seat, the engine rumbling to life as we pulled away from the curb."Turn left," I said quietly.Solomon shot me a glance in the rearview mirror, one brow raised, but he followed the direction without question. When I didn’t say anything else, he eased the car to a stop, waiting.He looked back again. "The hospital?" he asked.I didn’t answer. Instead, I pushed the door open and stepped out. I started walking, glancing over my shoulder to make sure Solomon was behind me. He was, but the confusion still clouded his face."Boss, has Diane recovered?" he asked hesitantly."Stop asking questions," I muttered.We reached Diane's room, and I turned to face him. His head was bowed, like he already knew what was coming."What's going on?" I asked, though my eyes said more t

EVELYN I stayed hidden in at the side of the female restroom, holding my breath as he walked away. His eyes scanned the hallway left, then right but he never saw me. My heart pounded as I replayed the conversation I’d overheard. So that’s why he’s been so restless. The weight of the secret pressed down on me. It wasn’t just his burden, it was Mimi’s life at stake as I clenched my fists. Should I confront him? Or stay quiet?I had wanted to stay at the hospital until Mimi woke up, but John placed a hand on my shoulder.“She’ll be fine,” he said, his voice calm. “We’ll all come back when she wakes up. Harn will stay with her in the meantime.”The car ride back to the Pack was quiet. No one spoke a word until we arrived. As we stepped out, Andrew rushed toward us, his face pale.“B-Boss,” he stammered, breathless. “Giovanni is here to see you.”My eyes widened as I turned to John. He raised his eyebrows, calm as ever, while I shifted my gaze to Andrew.“Where is he?” I asked.Andrew til

EVEYLNI stood stiffly, arms crossed tight over my chest, unable to bring myself to sit beside John on the bench. My eyes stayed fixed on the clinic door, silently begging it to open.Solomon paced nearby, his shoes tapping nervously against the floor. His chest rose and fell in shallow breaths, like he was holding something back. I’d never seen his face so tense, his brows knotted with a worry that seemed deeper than mine like he knew her in a way I didn’t.The door finally creaked open."She survived it," Harn said, stepping out with a grin stretching across his face."Just thank the goddess she was brought in early," Harn said. "It looks like she was rushed here right after she slit her wrist."I let out a long, shaky sigh. The weight of everything finally hit me.Solomon stepped forward, facing Harn with urgency in his eyes. "Please... can we see her?" he asked, voice barely above a whisper.I glanced at John. He only smirked, shook his head slightly, then got to his feet without
