REBORN: The Retaliation of the Fallen Luna novel BETRAYAL

ASHINA

My eyes drowsily opened, and I blinked multiple times before I saw Jenella. Her devilish smile curved her red lips. Jenella was looking at me, grinning, and raised her left leg and used her stiletto to lift my chin so I could face her.

I was in this depressing situation weeks ago. I looked at my lower body and sobbed as I saw myself bleeding. I definitely lost my child. My limbs were still locked, and the mice and cockroaches became my companions for weeks. I was so weak, and I couldn’t fight Jenella anymore.

Jenella is my cousin, her father and my father are brothers. I treated Jenella as my sister from the moment she stayed in our family. She became my sister… my older sister… I felt sad, with the memories flashing through my mind.

Regrets. That is all I feel.

Mostly, I regretfully think of those days I was so foolish for trusting this vixen before me.

“Look how miserable bitch you are!” Jenella said and followed with her crispy laugh.

I just stared at her and didn’t react to what she said. I hate her! I hate her so much! Much more when she proudly told me that she killed my father. How devious she is!

“Garth is dead.”

My eyes were shocked, staring at Jenella at what she said. Garth... He's my last hope, and now he's dead?!

“Until now, no one’s collecting the remains of the poor alpha whom you once rejected.”

I felt tears forming in my eyes, but I won’t make Jenella feel the satisfaction of my defeat boosts her happiness.

“Charles and I soon tie the knot. He will be the new alpha for defeating Garth, and I will be his luna.”

I still had no words to say. I will let Jenella talk. But Garth… my heart is aching for him.

Garth was my mate, but I rejected him a year ago because of Charles. I believed that Charles and I were bound to end. I was convinced by Jenella that I should reject my true mate, the alpha of Warpaw Keepers, the alpha I was destined to be, but I refused because I was so foolish. And now… he is dead. How come someone like Charles, a weakling, defeated Garth?

“Garth was strong and undefeatable, but Charles is wise and brilliant. Charles traded your safety with the poison that would slowly kill Garth. And lucky you, Garth took the poison to save you and your child. That poison caused him to get weak, and Charles won their fight and became the new alpha. Isn’t Charles so amazing?”

“Amazing, my ass!” I angrily reacted to that. I feel sorry for Garth. I feel sorry for the Moon Goddess for contradicting the fate she gave me and Garth. I feel sorry for being so stupid and trusting Jenella and Charles.
