《A Scorned Luna's Revenge》全部章節：第 61 章 - 第 70 章

“Miss, you are here.” Beta Faris came running towards me.When I got to Koa’s place, I did not meet him. Instead, his Beta rushed towards me with a fake smile on his face.“We did not know to expect you.”He regarded me with a guarded smile that felt off. I had nothing to do with Faris so there was no reason for him to treat me like a rogue about to charge.Then I remembered my reputation and sighed to myself. Some people treated me like a crazy person about to go off at any time. It was a reputation I earned before going back in time so Faris’ behaviour should not be all that surprising.It was also not a reputation I cared about correcting.“Am I not welcomed here?” I asked with quirked brows.“Ah, I never meant –“ He cringed. “You are here to see Alpha Koa, right?”“Where is he?” I looked around the space I had been asked to wait.It was my first time coming to see him without letting him know beforehand. I had never been made to wait for him. Thinking back, I realized it may be be

“Perse.”I hid my disgust with a tight smile. Smiling at Cassius became a lot more difficult with each day that passed. The way he looked at me these days with eyes full of sorrow and devastation had me wondering if he had eaten something wrong. Did he feel so guilty about me being stranded with Koa? Where did the Cassius who killed me go? That man was not capable of guilt so his sudden morose expression made me itchy. It was an expression I was unused to and right now, so close to my goal of pulling Cassius down, I could not tolerate any new variable.Cassius must lose everything and at his lowest, I would end it all for him. Just as he did to me.“What is it, Cassius?” I asked in a soft tone, standing up to greet him.“No, there’s no need to stand.” He came into my room and sat beside me on my bed. “Perse, what is your relationship with Alpha Koa?” He asked. “I want you to be honest with me. I have my doubts but I want to believe in you. Please, let me believe in you.” The wretched

“What did he do?” Koa asked with eyes that spoke of danger.I had wondered when he would ask. Since I drew the line with him long ago, reminding him that we were mere partners and not friends, he stopped asking. Even when I mentioned taking Cassius’ life, he never asked about the dual life I led pretending to love a man while planning to kill him. He never asked but today, I suppose he could not help himself.When I broke through my window and ran from Cassius, I did not turn back. The only sound I heard was the sound of my heartbeat as I covered ground as fast as my legs could carry me. I did not know where I was going and I did not care, merely focusing on getting away.My legs carried me home. The home I abandoned when I chose to be Cassius’ mate. The home I was all too happy to leave in what I had thought would be the beginning of my happiness. My father’s house, a place that felt like my cage, one which I desperately wanted to escape. Even now, the heavy black gates appeared inti

That same evening, the Luna Queen sent for me. She received me without a smile on her face, her eyes hard as she stared at me.“I gave you a choice,” she said immediately after I entered. “Do you understand what you are doing?” Her gaze narrowed.Her eyes were sunken, something her makeup could not cover, and her jaw worked as she ground her teeth.“What have I done?” I tilted my head to the side. “I am confused.”“You may be a smart child but I am not a person you want to play games with. Your father must have warned you.”“Your Majesty,” I could not find it in me to show her any respect. “You are speaking in a roundabout manner which I cannot pretend to understand. What is the problem?”“What are you doing with Koa?” She asked. “You must know that anyone who stands with him stands against me.”“Oh, was your relationship like that?” I let my eyes widen and my mouth fall open. “I had thought Your Majesty and Alpha Koa got along well. That is how it seemed during the Hunting contest. W

It was too late for Cassius. Whatever plans he put together now would barely have any effect on the plans I had had underway for a while now. He would be swept away by a tide before he knew what hit him and phase one of my revenge would be complete.The next stage would be easy. Dealing with Cassius after reducing him to a pauper would be a piece of cake compared to what I had had to endure so far.“How can she show her face like this?” Whispers followed me as I walked through the temple.“She is truly a shameless woman. If I were in her shoes, I would not be able to come out of my room for at least ten years.”“She pretended to be hurt about Alpha Raven finding his mate but she was nothing but a loose woman going after powerful men.”“I am certain Alpha Raven knew. No wonder he did not want to get engaged to her in the first place.”“Good day.” I stopped in front of the women gossiping about me without enough courtesy to lower their voices.“Argh – goddess, where did you come from!?”
