Chasing His Betrayed Luna novel Chapter 29

ALPHA RAIDEN

~<>~

Frustration had mixed with my blood and became a part of me. I sleep frustrated and wake up to more frustration… that’s even if I get any sleep. These days, she has been haunting me in my sleep.

“She isn’t haunting you, Raiden. Your past actions are. You brought this on yourself.” Lex defended Aurelia and called out my bluff.

He was right. Each time I close my eyes, I see the wrongs I melted out to Aurelia. I see her cooking for me without receiving appreciation, I see myself seeking pleasure from her body and through our bond while denying her pleasure. I see myself punishing her when all she did wrong was love me and the memories of our past have done more harm than good to me ever since she told me to stay away from her…

And it’s only been five days. Five days of torture from my dreams and Larisa who has been on my neck for intimacy– something we haven’t had since I started searching for Aurelia.

“You survived not having sex because of the broken bond you still carry. Larisa on the other hand must be some sort of hybrid because no adult unmated female wolf should go that long without sex.” Lex's words wouldn’t have bothered me if they didn’t make me realize that Aurelia could qualify as an unmated female.

“Are you saying Aurelia has been intimate with someone else?” Although I already suspected that there was something between her and Tristan, I’d never want to confirm my suspicions.

Lex snorted, being a prick, “No, I’m saying she had been sexing Tristan these past few years. Have you seen how he looks at and protects her? I bet the masked boy and the little girl are their kids–”

“That’s enough, Lex.” I gritted at my wolf, completely oblivious to the crowd around me. “Shouldn’t that bother you? You’ve always loved her.”

“She’s my destined mate. I love her but so do you. You’re simply too stupid to realize that earlier.” Lex etched, finally admitting that he was just as frustrated as I was but of course, he found relief in torturing me even more.

Lex shared his vulnerable feelings with me for the first time in a long time and it was hard not to get overwhelmed by them as the seconds ticked away. “We’ve to get her back even if she’s with the other bastard.” He said to me, indirectly calling me a bastard.

I shook my head, slightly amused and ready to continue the mental conversation with my wolf but the loud cheer from the crowd had me redirecting my focus.

“We won! We qualify!” Larisa jubilated beside me, caressing my arm.

I shifted my gaze from one part of the arena to another and soon realized that my pack had qualified for the finals. My pack members were celebrating the win against Moon Stone Pack, the third strongest pack in the realm which was led by a peace-loving Alpha, Clinton, who happened to be a good friend of mine despite the difference in our age.

Of course, I was happy my pack qualified for the finals but my happiness doubled when I found out that the pack we would be going against in the final round was none other than Black Fur Pack not because I wanted them around but because I wanted Aurelia to be around.

I joined Tristan and Alpha Clinton in the field.
