Chasing His Betrayed Luna by KiKi Jones

3. Hated Prisoner

AURELIA

It was her.

I knew her.

Although I was yet to see her face as she was cooped up in my mate's arms and her back was to me while her face was getting loved on by the man that was supposed to be mine- by the man who didn't give me as little as a peck on the cheek despite being married and mated to him for the past three years.

First time in my mate's office and this was what I saw? Huh?

The familiar shiny long blond hair was enough to let my crashing self know that the woman in my mate's arms was no other than Princess Larisa Wellington, his ex-girlfriend.

My lips trembled, my entire body shook as every part of my already shattered heart broke into tiny pieces and my puffy eyes were filled with hot tears once again. I wasn't usually a crybaby even though everyone around thought so but how do I stop crying when I was witnessing the end of my life?

Heck! He had never kissed me.

I had never gotten the opportunity to be kissed by him... by anyone at that.

Yet, he was kissing her so passionately.

Alpha Raiden was so lost in the kiss and in Larisa. Lost to the point where he didn't notice that I had been standing there in his office for an eternity. I was frozen on the spot but couldn't he sense me?

I watched as my mate groaned into the kiss, getting off his seat to pin Larisa against a wall and to kiss her even deeper. He only broke the kiss to say to her, "God, I have missed you so much, Isa."

He said her name so fondly and all I could do was cry silently. My heart died when Larisa giggled like the fulfilled woman she was, responding with love, "I missed you even more, Raid." Raid?

Alpha Raiden smiled, his eyes twinkling with pure love as his name rolled off his lover's tongue... He wouldn't even let me, his wife, mate, and Luna call him Raiden not to think of a pet name. But clearly, his lover could do that and more.

It killed me to call her his lover but that was the truth. I could see the love Alpha Raiden and I lacked flowing between him and Larisa. Larisa was his childhood lover. She was the beautiful daughter of the previous Beta who served Ronald, Raiden's dad, during his time as Alpha. and she was loved by all. They all wanted her to and believed that she would be their Luna but that didn't happen because on the day Larisa turned eighteen, I also did and I turned out to be Raiden's destined mate much to their disappointment.

He hated me.
