Luna's Awakening: Make The Alpha Regret

With the Pack Hall full of speculations, I put an end to the scene by sending Olivia upstairs to change, and Aiden let Damon keep a level head.

Aiden's unpredictable plans left me dumbfounded.

Everything that transpired was related to his scheme, making me believe he was against Alpha Damon and secretly devising a plan to take him down.

Alpha Damon usually wouldn't lift a finger in that tense moment, especially with other Alphas and Lunas watching. But he couldn't stand by any longer and saved Olivia, even if it meant tarnishing his and Lunar Crest's reputation.

As time ticked by, Olivia emerged in my signature blue gown, bearing the SilverFang logo—anyone familiar with our pack could spot it was mine in a heartbeat.

And yet, I ain't wrong when someone from the crowd roared, "That's Luna Aurora's dress! How dare you wear it during the gathering if you don't belong there?!"

Upon seeing Aurora, everyone concluded that Olivia tried to snatch my title as Luna.

With the guests' speculations, Olivia's eyes darkened, blaming the housekeeper for insisting on wearing it.

The housekeeper was scared stiff as she explained, "Luna Aurora, even if I end up being punished, I am telling the truth. She insisted on wearing it herself. She even said what's yours is hers and made up excuses to get me out of the way to wear it secretly!"

Before I could deliver my verdict, Aiden shot me a look that meant to be good as all eyes were glued to me.

To play the perfect Luna, I smiled and said, "She can wear whatever pleases. If it suits her, it's fine by me."

All the guests started to chatter around.

That one guest spilled wine over her exclaimed, "She bumped into me on purpose and wants me to take the blame so she can wear Luna Aurora's dress to be the center of attention. It's a shame that Aurora has to experience all this in the pack!"

With no one, not even Alpha Damon, in her corner, Olivia drew her conclusions and pinned the blame on me.

"It's you! It's all you, Luna Aurora! You did all of this to embarrass me!" Olivia said in an accusing tone.

"Olivia, you're out of line! Stop blaming everything on my mate!" Damon roared, silencing the hall.

In no time, Alpha Damon pulled Olivia out of the Pack Hall and shut the door behind us, leaving us all dumbfounded and speechless.

Since then, Lunar Crest disappointed all the guests, and they have all vowed not to attend any events hosted by the pack.

Right there and then, I ended up distancing myself from Alpha Damon and Olivia, giving myself time to think of breaking our bond once I cherished it.

If I could turn back the time and change the decisions I would regret, I would have done so.

While away from the pack house, Aiden secretly vowed to be my knight in shining armor despite Alpha Damon's refusal to give me any backup.

Every night, my duties ended, and I headed straight into my rented apartment within the pack. Aiden would tail me from behind, ensuring my safety as the Luna.

With the threat, he always mentioned to me, "Olivia isn't easy to deal with. She always mentions killing you, but Alpha urges you not to do anything, knowing you are the key to ending his hardships."

Olivia's threat scared the living daylights of me. But I knew Alpha Damon wouldn't let Olivia's intrusive thoughts win over.

And I was right. After each duty, Aiden couldn't get near me as Damon sent a swarm of spy warriors to keep me under wraps and ensure I didn't break free from the pack.

Alpha Damon's spy warriors were a real nuisance for the next few days. My mind kept wandering with their presence, and I ended up with no choice but to confront Alpha Damon back in the pack house.

"What is up to you, Alpha?! I did all my duties as Luna, yet you send spy warriors! Are you afraid I'll escape the pack and still can't satisfy your needs?" I fired him with questions.

"I vowed to marry you during the full moon. It's about to happen, and rogues start messing with us again," Alpha Damon reasoned, calm and composed, adding, "And I don't want my mate to be hurt. If you choose to stay here, no more spy warriors are around you."

Shaking my head, I reasoned, "Alpha, you are making our situation worse."

Just as Aiden always said, "Cut your ties with the Alpha before things go from bad to worse, and it's too late to turn back."

Whenever Alpha Damon wanted to patch things up, I would accept it wholeheartedly and act as if nothing transpired.

However, I was no longer taken in by this old trick. Not anymore.

Before he could use me to break Alpha Damon's curse, I decided, "Alpha, it is because of you I broke free, but I, Luna of Lunar Crest, didn't want to marry you in the full moon."

With my sudden decision, Alpha Damon laughed his ass out loud.

"No way! As the Alpha, I won't grant your rejection—you're stuck with me as my Luna, bound to marry under the full moon."
