Luna’s Revenge Unveiled By Love

Chapter 3

Luna growled at Landon as he begged, "Luna, please stop; we don't mean to hurt you."She snapped, "I told you I am not your Luna," since he was driving her crazy by repeatedly calling her that abominable name.He threw her on his back and dragged her inside, then shut the door behind them.Chloe sat on the chair, bored to death because kicking or banging on the door wouldn't get her anywhere, and her stomach grumbled because she hadn't eaten since yesterday.She woke up, cooked herself breakfast, and took a big bite, but nothing tasted good. She hadn't been hungry, but she knew she had to eat for the sake of her stomach.She shed a tear as she ate, remembering the last family dinner they had together at the table, laughing and sharing stories.

It was a bittersweet experience, but now that she was forced to eat alone, she was so discouraged that she threw the plate on the floor, where it shattered into a thousand pieces.How are you feeling, Luna? When Landon reappeared, she lost it and jumped on him, yanking his hair and making him scream.She warned him, "I told you I am not your Luna," as she reached for his head to yank off every last hair."What in the name of God is happening? The shout of Beta Mark resonated through the room; he had been taken aback to see Chloe scuffle with a security guard.She just jumped on me," Landon said, apologizing to Beta.

Landon was already on his knees when he said to Chloe, "Chloe, will you get down this instant?" providing her an easy route to get off his neck.Beta Mark told her, "You can remain in here and think about the mess you have created; you are lucky it wasn't the Alpha who caught you; otherwise, you would have been chained and beaten for such an act," before locking her back up.They succeeded brilliantly in making her feel that she wasn't human but rather a slave who deserved to be imprisoned. The Beta had warned her that she should anticipate harsh treatment for her misbehavior, but this was far worse. At least she wasn't in shackles and being thrashed by a common guard.

Even though Chloe may have been the one who initiated the act, Landon was still in the wrong for touching or having any physical contact with the future Luna without the Alpha's consent, which is why Beta Mark punished him after giving him a good lashing.They had permission to bring her home, which is why he was able to touch her, but that permission had long since expired, and he had crossed the line.You should count yourself lucky you aren't getting decapitated for that, Beta Mark said.

Although he understood her grief and desire for retribution against the Alpha for the deaths of her family, Chloe's tendency to pick fights with anyone who happened to be around was becoming increasingly annoying after only a day.Landon promptly kneeled down to repent, realizing that the punishment he received from the Beta was quite light compared to what he could have received from the Alpha.

He said, "I'm very sorry, Beta," and Mark relaxed.Before he left, Beta Mark gave him strict orders: "Go back to your duty post and never let such an act happen again, or else you would be dead." He had to keep quiet about what happened, or else Chloe and the guard would be severely punished, and he didn't want Chloe to have a traumatic first week on the Luna.

It had been two months since Chloe had any independence; she was confined to her residence and never ventured outside.All the sharp objects or anything she could use to kill herself were also taken, so she was forced to resort to the stacks of books in her room. She tried to use this time to plan her attack on Alpha Derek, but every day she would find that her plans had been destroyed or taken, especially if they were written or made by the guards who came to inspect her room.Three omegas stood ready with jewelry, cosmetics, and shoes when the door opened and Landon entered, dressed in a stunning white gown.He commanded, "The Alpha wants you to prepare for the banquet."Chloe chuckled as she listened to him.She replied, "If he wants me to wear this, then tell him to come to me; I have a lot of things I want to say to him, and I can only do them if he is close to me."With the expectation that Derek would come by himself, as she had requested, she pushed Landon and the Omegas out.She had no idea he was following close behind.Are you attempting to test my tolerance? She was startled by his question and briefly considered how he had gotten there so quickly before dismissing the idea.

He locked the door behind them with a death glare in his eyes.Do you think I'm going to dress up and pretend to be your Luna? Let me just shatter your bubble; I'm not doing any of that," she challenged him, though her stance was fairly small in comparison to the tall man she had to look up to.Do you wish to perish?" Walking closer to her, he inquired as she backed away in terror. This was not what she had anticipated; she had imagined she would have the confidence to damage him once she saw him.She stepped backwards till she slammed against the desk; there, on the desk, was a flower vase. She gently took it up, preparing to smash it on his head; however, a strong hold prevented her from doing so.Derek saw what she was about to do and quickly intervened, knocking the vase to the floor while maintaining his hold on her hand. Then, with his right hand, he circled Chloe's neck, exposing his claws. His intention was for Chloe to know that he was capable of killing at that very moment, and she understood immediately that he had killed her family before.Don't test me, Chloe; I've been lenient with you for a long time, and you won't like the result if you do.

After telling her to "get ready for the banquet, and that's an order," he left her in the Omega's capable hands to prepare her for the event.As night fell, the Red Moon Pack welcomed ranked members and their families from neighboring packs. Everyone gathered to congratulate Alpha Derek on the birth of his daughter, Luna.Derek didn't bother to welcome the visitor, instead relying on Gamma Lucian, who greeted everyone who entered the building.

A lovely young woman in a white dress, her hair pulled back in a perfect ponytail with bangs, and black shoes strolled in, yet she frowned as she stood there watching everyone.Chloe was a little nervous because she was not used to being in such a large group of people, but she still didn't want to pretend to be someone she wasn't.For a split second, Alpha Derek stared at her before averting his eyes.The Alpha next to him complimented Chloe, saying, "She is beautiful," but he said nothing. He had no choice but to approach Chloe, who had not moved from her original standing position.He motioned for her to hold on to him, and she did, knowing full well that if she disobeyed, things wouldn't end well.A woman who was approaching them complimented them on their beautiful Luna."Who called me his Luna?" Chloe shot out, "I won't accept that kind of criticism from you.

Derek was upset by her claim that she had heard a low growl at her side.What do you mean, that's not true? She muttered something to him, and the air surrounding him suddenly grew frigid. He turned to her, lowered his head gently, and left the dining hall.Chloe, however, looked ridiculous with all the gazes on her, so she quickly bowed to them and also followed him out. The guests were astonished by his unexpected act and wondered why he would leave his own party and his Luna.Beta Mark swore, "s**t," before picking up the microphone to explain what had just occurred.

He then announced, "The Alpha has some emergencies to take care of; please enjoy the party," and the guests continued to do so.Only he and Gamma Lucian were aware of Derek's desire to express his rage.Beta Mark concurred with Gamma Lucian's assessment that "she must have said something to tick him off" via the mind-link.Throughout the evening, nobody spotted Alpha Derek.
