The Reborn Luna's Revenge

CHAPTER ONE

KAYLA ROCHELLE

It had been three years ever since we got married, I have had a fair share of marriage and honestly speaking, I wouldn’t advise anyone to fall head over heels in love with anyone just to keep the marriage, that is what I did and look at me now, everything lost meaning in our second year of marriage, Keenan was not the guy I fell in love with anymore, he had turned into something else, something bizarre and something uncouth.

Keenan not only stopped caring about me but also stopped giving me attention like his wife, I even thought maybe he didn’t love me anymore but that is the problem, Keenan loves no one but himself and I guess I learned my lesson too late and it was not easy accepting the fact that I was married and living with someone who didn’t even take a minute to look at me, I would always act cool for the sake of the pack but I was hurting from the inside, all I wanted to do was run away and never come back but Silver Dawn pack needed me and I had to be there for them.

It was on Wednesday mid-morning, a typical day at the pack, I was at the training camp training the pack’s young wolves as it was my norm, I hadn’t seen Keenan all day long, I woke up and he was gone and I assumed maybe he had gone for his normal duties.

“Let us meet tomorrow and I want to see some progress in you guys, we have been training for the past few weeks and you can’t tell me you know nothing about what I have taught you, I want you to practice on your own, master it and you know grow some balls, you are no longer young, do you hear me!”

“Yes Luna Kayla!” they replied in unison and I sighed. “Good because I don’t want to be training some weak-ass weaklings, this pack is meant for greatness and you are all destined for greatness, do you believe that!”

“Yes, Luna Kayla!”

“Go home, we won’t meet until Friday, you only have tomorrow to rest and we meet here on Friday, same time, you are all dismissed.” I ordered and reached for my towel to wipe off all the sweat, they all dispersed and I was left all alone, “I can see you are doing quite well on your own.” Malia’s voice startled me from the back.

“My God, you startled me, what are you doing here, it is in the middle of the day and you are still roaming around, I thought you went on that trip with your boyfriend?” I asked as I pulled her in for a hug.

“You are overworking my love, look at you, you look so thin, don’t tell me this is about Keenan, what did he do this time round?” she asked and I sighed, Malia had constantly been begging me to leave him but I wouldn’t, I loved Keenan and that was the worst part because he took that as an advantage.

“No, we are not talking about my husband today honey but thank you for the offer, how are you doing?”

“I am good, I was going to see my boyfriend and I figured out you would be done with the training by now, and here I am, I hope I am not interrupting you in any way?”

“No, of course not but I was heading home before you came in, maybe we can talk while I head back to the house.” I offered and she agreed.

“So, what happened between you and Keenan, I know he is a beast but you have to open up, I know you are not okay Kayla, you are my friend and as a friend, I am always going to open up with you.”

“Okay, but as I said before, I am not talking to you about my marriage life, not about Keenan too we can talk about anything else aside from my marriage life,” I said and she shrugged. She was my friend but the last thing I wanted to do was discuss my private life with her.

“You know I respect you and I would never cross my boundaries with you, though I pray and hope that heal from whatever you are doing through right, it is not easy but I hope you do,” she alleged and I nodded in agreement, we spoke for some few more minutes before she got a call from her boyfriend and excused herself.

I walked back to the house, as I passed through to the main entrance, everyone waved at me and some kids ran to hug me. At Silver Dawn Pack, everyone respected and loved me as their Luna and that is something that always kept me going, the fact that they showed me love and recognized me as their Leader.

Keenan was not in the house when I walked in, so I just went on with my business, I had meetings to attend and a dinner with my parents.

In the evening, I showered and prepared myself to go to my parent’s house, as soon as I walked into the living room, Keenan walked in, “And where do you think you are going?”

“I have dinner plans with my parents and that is where I am going now, I don’t think I owe you any explanation because I don’t ask you where you go, I expect the same from you,” I said and he chuckled and then plopped himself of the couch.

“I suppose I can’t convince you otherwise, can I?”

“No Keenan, when you made that rule, it applied to both of us and I am going to my parent’s house, I won’t ask you where you have been because I don’t think that is any of my business, just like this is none of your business.” I said and picked my handbag, kissed his cheeks before I walked to the door, “don’t wait up for me, I might sleep over at my parents place,” I added with a smile before I walked out and into my car, I texted my mom to let her know that I was on my way.

“Keenan is back at his old behavior, and I don’t know how to control myself around him anymore, sometimes I feel like I should just poison him and kill him, be done with him but I still love him,” I said to my mom after dinner and she sighed, I don’t know why mom always believed that it was good for me to stay in my marriage and be patient with Keenan who was cheating on me and sleeping around like the harlot he was.

I don’t know why my mom was hell-bent on supporting his actions instead of siding with me, I was her daughter and that was what I expected from her but you know the drill, your parents siding with your enemy was the worst pill to take.

“Mom, I am not going to sit here and watch you take his side anymore, I am done with this Mom if you know you want to advise me again about this because I am done,” I said with finality and stood up but she ushered me to sit down.

“I am sorry but that is not the case here, I could call you here to talk about your husband and take his side when you first told me about Keenan I thought you were just being young and getting used to marriage not a walk in the park but now I have come to understand why you complained, I am not taking his side, I just want you to talk to me and tell me how you feel about all of this.” She explained and I sighed.

This was the first time she looked so concerned about me, I looked at her one more time and then smiled.

“This is not just about me Mom, is it? Is this why you called me over for dinner?” I questioned and she chuckled.

“You don’t trust me, do you?”

“Of course, I trust you, Mom, it is just that you have all the time sided with him, I was just wondering what made you change your mind,” I said and she laughed it off.

“I am sorry for that my dear, I was too blind to see the truth. How are you doing, I mean how I everything back at home?”

“Usual, he comes and leaves as he wishes and I don’t get to ask where he goes and life goes on. Honestly, I don’t understand the kind of trouble I got myself into, life would have been easier if I just didn’t marry him.” I said with regret.

“No, we don’t know tomorrow’s plans and that is why you didn’t know he would turn into the man he is right now, it is not easy and I am not going to tell you what to do but you should do what you think is right, just don’t be stressed over him, men will always be men.”

“Does that include Dad too, did he also cheat on you and make you feel less of yourself, made you feel unwanted?”

“No, your father is a good man and I thank heavens for him because my life was not as smooth as you think, I was sold off to your father when I was barely fifteen but we fell in love with each other a few months into our marriage, I thought he was going to mistreat me but things turned out well and we had you, what I am trying to tell you is that not all men are bad, you just get lucky.”

“Yeah and I was the unlucky one, it is all good mom, I have learned to live with it.”

“There is no point in you being so adamant to admit help, don’t stay where your heart doesn’t belong if you feel like he is being too hard on you, our door is always open, and you will always find another met for yourself, you are still too young.” She said and I smiled, she then pulled me in for a hug, and I felt her love, a mother’s love in a long time, I guess that embrace was all I needed before I broke down.

“I can’t take it anymore Mom,” I said amidst tears and she rubbed my back softly.

“It is okay to not feel strong, just give it up baby, I am here for you.” She said and I cried even more, I was home and I guess home is where you feel loved and cared about, just like my mom was there for me, I felt completely comfortable.
