Lahat ng Kabanata ng Luna: Sworn to revenge : Kabanata 1 - Kabanata 8

Vanessa’s POV The air seemed to thicken and the once ventilated room became so hot that I was choking.The guards matched forward. My heart ticks and my brain tries to process what was happening… but still seemed confused. I can't get arrested for what I didn't do. No! I must speak up for myself. “I am no murderer. I didn't kill your…” Before I could finish that sentence…. ‘PAM’... Lena slapped me and it sounded like the clap of thunder. My head twisted slightly and my hands involuntarily held my cheek.“Disgusting! Have you no heart?” Lena's eyes widened, “How dare you deny an obvious truth?”Tears sting my eyes. “T-there is no truth in this. Why would I kill his father?” “You still deny?” Lena fiercely slapped my face again. This time, my feet lost their balance and I fell to the ground.My eyes reddened and I couldn't help the tears that laced beneath it. “Enough, you two!” Ray Sabastian finally let out a thick growl. His eye balls became very red - a sign that he was angry

Vanessa's POV The trees sang a dirge the moment I gave birth to twins. The wind seemed to pat my face. I lost energy and laid on the ground like a dead body. The pack were shocked. Alpha Ray bolted forward. His jaw dropped and his mouth widened in awe. “What are you still doing there? Get the physician right away!” He barked at the soldiers watching with shock. My clothes were soaked with blood and Alpha Ray came down to my level, trying to lift my head. “You weren't lying after all.” He murmured, looking at my tired face. Just as he was carried away for a moment… Lena let out a loud cry, desperate to get the attention I was getting. Alpha Ray, looked back with deep concern on his face. He let go of my head and rushed to meet with Lena. Just the moment I thought I would be seen, the moment I thought he would care for me, the moment I thought he would leave his deep concern for Lena… it all dawned on me as a reality that I was never loved. Lena was the priority from the onset.

Vanessa’s POVThe sirens of the Vash Pack blared, a sharp, electronic contrast to the primal howls echoing from the border. My heart hammered against my ribs, but not with the fear of the broken girl from five years ago. This was the rhythm of a Luna who had built an empire from ash."Status report!" I barked into my comms as I hurried Emily toward the reinforced safe room."Luna, Alpha Ray’s forces have breached the outer perimeter," Beta Marcus’s voice crackled through the speaker.

He didn't just want me; he wanted the resources I had painstakingly gathered while his own pack starved. Ray had watched me from the shadows for years, waiting for the moment I was most vulnerable."Initiate the Trap Protocol," I commanded, my voice cold. "If he wants my pack, let him see what happens when you corner a wolf who has already lost everything".I turned to Emily, kneeling to look into her e

Vanessa’s POVThe sound of the blade entering Ray’s chest was a dull thud that echoed louder than any explosion. I watched, frozen, as the man who once looked at me with "despicable" eyes now collapsed to protect me."Ray!" I screamed, lunging forward to catch him before he hit the cold floor.My mother stood over us, the bloody silver dagger shaking in her hand. She looked at her own hands, then at me, her face twisting into a mask of pure madness."You were supposed to move, Vanessa!" she shrieked. "He was supposed to watch you die, just like his father did!".Ray’s breath was hitching, bubbles of red foam at the corner of his mouth. "Vanessa...
