REBORN: The Retaliation of the Fallen Luna novel Chapter 4

ASHINA

I am walking with heavy feelings toward home. Garth refused everything I offered to him. He even refused my body. I saw desires while he looked at me but… but he still told me he was determined to reject me.

I wept. And I let my tears fall until I stood in front of our house. I wiped my tears, for I couldn’t let Jenella see me crying. I can’t make her feel happy for what rejection that happened to me.

I got inside and saw the bandaged head of Jenella. Such an overacting. We are werewolves, and she could heal in an instant as well. Obviously, she was doing that to gain sympathy from my father.

“Hey…” Jenella approached me with a concerned tone.

I just looked at her. Thinking of some words to make her go away. Garth doesn’t want to mark me, so I need to make a Plan B due to the first plan that didn’t work.

While looking at Jenella, I remember when she was adopted by my father when she was only eight and I was seven. She was raised by Dad as his own. She was never mistreated. Dad is so fair between us. Even Dad spoiled me; he gave all Jenella’s needs as well.

Staring at my evil ‘sister,’ I wonder why she turned out to be so vile. How could she poison my father, who treated her as his daughter? How could she do all those bad things I remembered she did in my past life?

Jealousy. Envy. That is all in Jenella's heart… that she wanted to destroy my life with Garth. She hates me because I am the real alpha's daughter and not her.

And Garth… I need him to still consider me.

“What happened to you? I thought you had decided ever since that it was Charles you wanted to be your mate and not Garth?” she asked in her soft voice again.

I wanna laugh as I remember how strong and vicious her voice was in my past life. She destroyed me! Jenella destroyed me, and I am not going to forget that! No matter how kind she acts now, I know how bad she is.

“Ashina, talk to me? We promised each other that no secrets between us, right? We're sisters.”

“No secrets, my ass!” I hissed the words. I saw how she gasped. She’s really good at acting. She could bag a best actress award if she wants to be part of the entertainment business.

“I don’t know what exactly happened but… but aren’t you thinking of Charles now? What do you think he would feel if he found out that you wanted to marry Garth?” Jenella stood up and sweetly touched my cheek. Her sweet gesture for me that she kept doing for years when I was feeling bad.

I don’t want to say anything to her. Any words coming from me, she will use those against me.

“Kindly tell me why you wanna marry Garth? Did you feel the strong mate call now with him?”

“Yes.” It’s a safe answer. And I saw her ugly reaction. She didn’t like my answer.

“But what about Charles? Have you forgotten he is waiting for you because you plan to elope with him tonight?”

“I change my mind. Garth is all I want now.”

Jenella just stared at me first. She's nothing but an idiot. Waiting probably for her wolf to tell her what she will say next.

“But Charles—”
