บททั้งหมดของ The Rise Of The Betrayed Luna: บทที่ 71 - บทที่ 80

Lenora's POV The guards moved swiftly, and lifted Zade with care as they carried him back to the pack house. I trailed behind them, my steps heavy, my mind consumed by fear and guilt - the fear of losing him, and the guilt for being the reason he was in this state. I shouldn't have suggested that we walk in the woods. I should have agreed when he proposed that we go home. If I had agreed, none of this would have happened. He wouldn't be here fighting for his life. He wouldn't be on the verge of “Get the doctor!” Karl's sharp and commanding voice cut through the chaos. I couldn’t tell which maid he was addressing not when my vision was blurred by tears. I just followed them like a lost puppy into Zade’s room, where they laid him gently on the bed. “Is he going to be okay?” I asked Karl, my voice laced with concern, though my eyes never left Zade. His face was pale, his eyes shut tight, his body burning with fever. What else could those rogues have done to him in my absence

Lenora's POV Us? What the hell was she talking about? Apart from Talia, Zade had never mentioned another woman in his life. The question lingered in the air. My stomach twisted into knots, but I kept my face impassive, refusing to let her see the growing tension on my face. “No,” I replied, my voice steady despite the turmoil brewing within me. “He hasn’t.” Taylor's smirk widened like a predator toying with its prey. Her eyes glinted with a cruel satisfaction that made my skin crawl. She was enjoying this, whatever game she was playing. But I wouldn’t give her the satisfaction of seeing me break. Not now. Not ever. “Well, Zade and I are together,” she said, her tone dripping with a faux sweetness. She let the words hang, savoring the moment as if they were a weapon meant to break me. My jaw tightened but I refused to flinch. “What do you mean?” I asked, my voice low and measured, though my heart pounded in my chest. She rolled her eyes, her smirk never faltering for once. “

Melissa's POV “Answer me!!” He repeated when he didn't hear any words from my mother. The air grew thick with tension as Alpha Elijah stepped closer. My mother and I stood frozen, our face pale as if we had seen a ghost. Alpha Elijah was Axel's best ally and there is no tendency that he wouldn't tell Axel what he has just heard. Goodness! We are done for. “Don't make me repeat myself, Matilda!” He growled. My mother's lips trembled but no words seemed to come out. It was as if she had suddenly gone dumb and I couldn't blame her one bit. “Alpha Elijah,” my mother finally managed to answer, her voice shaking. “I…I can explain. It's not what you think. I didn't mean….” “Didn't mean what, Matilda?” His voice was low, but it carried a dangerous edge. “Didn't mean to confess to murdering Tricia? Didn't mean to lie to the entire pack about her death? Or didn’t mean to let Lenora suffer for years, knowing full well her mother was innocent?” My heart pounded in my chest as I watched

Zariel’s POV “How did it go?” I asked the men standing before me. I had asked them to disguise themselves as rogues, to hurt Zade. And of course, I asked them to hang around the pack, around the woods and be ever ready in case they sight Zade, so they'll attack him. I really hope they were able to succeed with it. Else, I'll kill them all. They wouldn't dare fail me. A smile broke out on the leader’s face. “It went well, Zariel. We attacked him.” My lips curled up into a smile. Good! This is what I want to hear. “You all deserve accolades for a job well done.” I winked at him and his smile broadened. “So when are we getting our payment?” I rolled my eyes. “Relax, man. I was about to come to that sooner!” “I'm sorry, I didn't mean to sound that way. But you know, people can't be trusted one bit. They'll always want to take advantage of….” My lips curled into a smile. “It's fine!” I should be mad at him for generalising me with other people, but I didn't. Not when he had just

Lenora's POV I was currently sitting on the bench in Zade's balcony. I wasn't tense anymore. Not after Zade had woken up. Although he didn't stay awake for a long time before falling back to sleep. Indeed Luna Ophelia and Karl were right when they said he was a fighter. The doctor had told Luna Ophelia that she wasn't sure if Zade would survive the attack, but he did. He survived. He was indeed a strong man. I can't help but appreciate the moon goddess for listening to my cries. Ever since my time in Axel's pack when she didn't bless my womb with any child, I have decided to stop putting my trust in her, because she was always fond of betraying me. But from now on, I think I've found a solid reason to believe in her. At least she answered my plea this time when I called. That's more than enough reason to trust in her again. I was suddenly interrupted by a tap on my shoulders and I turned around to see Luna Ophelia. She had a huge smile on her face. “Mother!” I called out. It
