Revenge on The Alpha Who Rejected Me のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 121 - チャプター 130

VIOLET“Any update on those tabloids?”Zayn was focused on the phone in his hand, furiously typing away at it. “We’ve gotten a good number of them down. Some annoying blogs don’t want to let go of it though.”Lucian fixed up his tie. “I trust you can handle that.”“Leave it to me,” Zayn checked his watch. “Soon as we’re done with this meeting, I’ll get right on it.”Lucian nodded, fixing up his look one more time. Behind the doors before us was a conference hosted to address all the concerns that had sprouted after the summit. Of course it wouldn’t clear as quickly as I’d thought it would.That would be wishful thinking to assume it would. I guessed Lucian knew that much. He understood it, knew just how much things would blow up. And we were just as ready to get things straightened out.He turned to me, reaching for my hand. “Are you ready?”I sucked in a breath. “Ready as I’ll ever be.”“We’ll be at the front in case anything happens.” Reese said, reaching for Zayn’s hand. The beta s

LUCIAN“Alright, so what have we got?”Zayn spread out every single one of the document he had in hand, and began reading them out.“We’ve got about three lesser packs that have pledged allegiance to our cause, one of them being Farlorn.”“Farlorn is good,” I nodded, eyes skimming over my copy of the documents. “They have the seaside advantage, something we can utilize to our cause.”Zayn nodded. “Exact. And then there’s this letter that came in from MoonBay today.”“MoonBay?” I froze, my mind wandering back to the summit.The twins had approached us with an air of formality. Things had long since escalated since the summit and word had gotten out of Tristan’s declaration of war. So it was safe to say, everywhere had been thrown into a set of preluded chaos.“This letter came in from MoonBay?” I repeated.“Yes,” Zayn nodded, eyes pouring through the paper. “The Alpha himself has chosen to ally with us and says he’s ready for a one-on-one meeting with you both.”I nodded, my expression

VIOLET“And how many rounds have you made today?”The chief patrol officer gave me a salute. “The usual routine number, Luna. Although, things are much more stringent now due to the…preparations.”I nodded, taking note of somethings. It had been exactly four days since Tristan’s declaration, and as anyone would have guessed, the whole region is scrambling for preparations. One would think the bastard would have launched some attack since he’s the one who actually decided to start the war.Seriously, you’d think he knew better. I had half the mind to just downright smack him straight in the face, but was it even worth it?No, it definitely was. I’d save it for when I eventually caught him. For now, I’d do enough practice to ensure I get right in the noggin.The officer saluted once more before moving back to his colleagues. It was hard to miss the furtive glances they took my way. I knew what their eyes said even before they spoke. That much was obvious taking in everything that had be

LUCIANWar wasn’t something I was a stranger too. I’d fought many of it, partook and even stood at the very spearhead of everything. I’d been at the vanguard of fights, clawed my way to blood soaked soil.This wasn’t my first war.But one thing I’d never completely shake through was the blood that always clung. The blood that feels like it’s somehow permeated its way into your nails. The kind that hugs your very hands like a shadow forever damned to unrest.I hate it.But to hate and still be aware of your very incompetence in such a matter is something of a curse I’m all too familiar with.Letting out a breath, I pushed the door to the war room open and immediately headed to the head of the table.“Update.” I growled.Feylin came up to my side. “He hit two of our standpoints, body count at both totals fifty.”My chest tightened at his words. I should have expected the worst from this situation really. But hearing him say this didn’t make me feel the slightest bit better. I shoved the

VIOLETYou’d think I’d learnt my lesson by now. But what doesn’t kill you comes back to finish the job right after.The letter arrived just before dusk.I knew it was important the moment the knock came at my door. It had been soft, hesitant, the kind that carried unease and uncertainty with it. I was seated near the window, watching the sky slowly bruise into shades of purple and grey. My thoughts were drifting in slow, heavy circles I wasn’t sure I could escape even if I wanted to“Luna?” It sounded like a male.The guard called quietly from the other side of the door when I didn’t answer immediately. “There’s… something for you.”Something.Not someone. Not a message from Lucian. Just something. My fingers curled slowly in my lap before I finally found the courage to stand up. “Come in.”The door opened, and the guard stepped inside the room. His whole form was rigid and uncomfortable, like he would much rather be anywhere but here. He didn’t meet my eyes as he extended a sealed e
