Lahat ng Kabanata ng Rejected And Betrayed: Chasing My Luna Back.: Kabanata 141 - Kabanata 150

EVEYLN John and I stood outside, the afternoon sun beating down on us. We had finished what we came for, and Amos had followed us out to say goodbye."It must have been traumatizing for you," I said gently, watching the way his shoulders sagged and his eyes seemed to hold too much pain.I hesitated, then asked, "By the way, how's your wife? Has she given birth yet?"He let out a shaky sigh, staring at the ground."She died," he said, voice barely above a whisper.My heart stumbled in my chest. "What?"He swallowed hard. "She... she died in the delivery room. The baby too."John and I exchanged a stunned look. Fuck."When was that?" I asked softly."Just last week, ma'am," he replied, his voice thin and tired.I placed a hand on his back, trying to offer some comfort. "You shouldn't overthink it, okay? Don't worry... I'll do my best."He shook his head slowly. "I don't want anything from you," he said. "All I want is for them to be punished. Keen's leg is already paralyzed, he can't w

EVEYLN"What do you mean, strip me of my rights?""Of course, Evelyn," he murmured, cutting me off before I could say more. He patted the empty spot beside him on the couch so that I will sit. Instead, I flopped down on the opposite side of the cushions as I sighed."You’re no longer a member of this Pack," he muttered. "I respect your choice. But if you want to keep your duties, you'll have to convince John to agree to merge the Packs into one."I let out a harsh scoff, leaning back with my arms crossed. "And why exactly do you think that's a good idea?""But you know it's impossible, right?" he said, leaning forward slightly. "If the elders of Nightshade Pack find out, they'll remove you themselves."As much as I hated to admit it, he was right. Deep down, I didn’t want to lose my high rank in the Pack. I could still remember how proud I was the day I earned it, the way my heart had swelled when I stood beside him during meetings, learning how everything worked."What do you want to

EVEYLN"Diane was here," Bea said, glancing at me as I raised my eyebrows."What?" I asked quickly, my heart skipping. "Did she hurt anyone? Is everyone okay?"Bea shook her head, her mouth twisting into a smirk. "No, nothing like that. She just showed up to throw around some stupid warning, telling me you should back off whatever you're planning. But don’t worry," she added, her voice firm, "I told her if she’s got something to say, she better say it to your face, not ours."A warm rush of gratitude filled me. I couldn't help but smile at Bea, wanting to pull her into a hug right then."She was fuming," Bea said with a chuckle, rolling her eyes. I chuckled. "You would've slapped the hell out of her." Once I finished my meal at the dining table, Harry pushed back his chair with a scrape. Without a word, he gathered both our plates and headed toward the kitchen."What? Hey, come back here!" I called after him."No, Mummy, let me do it," he said, flashing a proud grin full of tiny tee

EVEYLN"It's ironic, seeing you here, Evelyn. I didn’t think you’d even want to look at me," Renai said with a dry scoff, her hand gripping the cold iron railing outside as I glanced around the compound, lush with blooming flowers and a neat stretch of carpet grass.She tilted her head, a mocking glint in her eye. "You’ve changed. Gotten bold, haven’t you? Who would've guessed, Evelyn, the once omega slave of this Pack would turn out to be...""I need your help," I cut her off. "And it’s the only way I can forgive you."Renai gave me a slow stare from head to toe, her lips curling into a smirk. "Forgive me?" she echoed with a laugh. "Did I ever do anything worth needing forgiveness for?, Was I among those you maltreated you?"Her words stung, but not because she was wrong. She hadn’t hurt me at least not in the obvious ways. No, she had just sent me on errands, treated me like the omega I was. "And is that what I’m talking about?" I snapped. "I’m talking about the false accusations

EVEYLNHonestly, I didn’t expect Renai to say that. A few people in the crowd nodded slowly, their eyes narrowing with thought, while others glanced around, unsure which side to take.John wasn’t here, probably busy getting ready for the Annual Meeting.“Don’t worry,” Renai said, tapping my shoulder gently. “Everything’s under control. I’ll hand over the flash drive to the elders so they can make the final call.”A few hours later, I stood in the mansion’s hallway, the silence pressing in like a weight. I wiped at my cheeks, trying to calm my breath as I took a deep breathe. The sting in my chest wasn’t from the tears, it was from the truth. I couldn't believe that I'm leaving with the lady who almost killed my daughter, it just broke me thinking about it.“Evelyn…”Andrew’s voice pulled me out of my thoughts as he appeared at the end of the hallway. I quickly wiped my face and forced a smile.“It’s okay to cry,” he said, walking toward me. His voice was gentle. “Don’t hold it in. Wh
