The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary

Chapter 104

Chapter 104 “Selene… please. There’s no denying we’ve wronged you, no denying that Landon has wronged you,. but please forget about his rejection. He regrets it now. Regrets it so badly, and so do I. You’ve made yourself more than before, Landon sees that. He now knows you’re worthy of him and the Luna title. You made your point across, everyone understands now. I- I’m not cut out for his Luna thing” She gestures to herself as her tears freely spill from her eyes, “I’m not strong enough. But you are. Save Nightwake. Save Landon. Save me.” She presses her lips together, “I’m still your sister.” Seconds go by with her just looking at me. She awaits my reaction, her concentration pin pointed on my face to look for any signs of what I would say. But my face is blank. It’s as blank as an empty canvas when inspiration doesn’t hit the artist.

And all of sudden, a cruel laugh pulls from me. A body shaking, full blown laughter thrown on her face. “Goddess.” I laugh, wiping a stray tear from the corner of my eye. “You think my refusal of Walker is only because of the rejection? You think I came back for the man? Do you hear yourself? You think me to be so hung up on his rejection that I built myself up for him? To make myself appeal to him? No man is worth changing myself for. I didn’t come here to seduce him into wanting me after all I’ve accomplished. This contempt I feel for him isn’t even a silver of the burning hatred I feel for all of you.” I smile when I see her wince. “The rejection broke me. I admit that. But what ruined me is what happened after. Betrayed by my own blood. Sent straight to the pack after the threats of the rogues were sent. You all wanted me to die. You all willingly sent me to Death’s door. The Goddess was so hateful to have me watch a whole pack burn to the ground and I was incapable of doing anything about it.” This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Hestia’s eyes widened. A look of dread on her face when she realized that I had known about the warnings. The lot of them must’ve assumed no one else knew about their betrayal. The warnings that were sent by the rogues themselves. It’d teach them to be more wary of me. “The horrors of what I’ve faced up until now is what changed me. Not because of my non existent love for Walker. I’m not some desperate, naive wolf who pants after a male who never wanted me. sister. Much less got another female pregnant and made her Luna. Get that through your head, You’re the Luna now. You chose this path, so don’t you dare even think about throwing me into this mess when each and every one of you was so insistent in keeping me out in the first place.” I press my lips thinly, pushing myself off my desk and stopped in front of her. The tidal pool of anger washing over my calming but secretly brewing in the center of my chest. “It’s too late for regrets, Luna. You put too much at stake for you to change your mind now. Our blood relation has little to do with our situation so do both of us a favor and refrain from using such a pathetic excuse. You won’t get a semblance of sympathy from me. Understand I wouldn’t hesitate to burn you all down if given the professional reason to.” My eyes drift down to her stomach before I turned and strode over to my chair. Hestia stayed rooted to her spot. She didn’t know what to say. What she could say in this situation when she had nothing to defend herself with. So she just stood there dumbly. She stood there as her head dropped the slightest bit and she opens her mouth. “I loved him. I loved Landon with all my heart.” Her blue eyes connect with mine,. “Was loving someone so bad?” I don’t let my face slip. I just stare at her with terrifying numbness to her words. “I know. I knew you loved him, and I knew he loved you. It’s why I don’t use your relationship as the foundation of my hatred. Even if you hadn’t sent me away to Duskfall, I wouldn’t have interfered. It would hurt. yes, but I wouldn’t have tried to steal him from you even if he was soulfully mine. Even if it meant going against the Moon Goddess’ plans, I would’ve stayed away. Because you loved him.” Flashes of them smiling at one another, flashes of Landon’s rejection, flashes of the pain I went through

lit up my mind. The pure agony I faced to reach where I am today, resurfacing like a fresh. wound kissing my bare heart. The lingering sting reminding me of why everything had turned out the way it was. “I don’t hate you for loving him. Hell, I don’t hate you for taking him from me before I could even claim him as mine. As a sister; your sister-i would’ve accepted your decision. As his mate, i would’ve accepted his wishes for his happiness. Even if it dam ned near killed me, I would’ve let go had you given me the time to accept it.”
