Chasing His Betrayed Luna by KiKi Jones

4. Stormy Blue Eyes

ALPHA RAIDEN

I could feel rage still boiling inside of me even though several hours had passed since the woman I was forced to marry and mate with tried to sever the same bond that I sacrificed my happiness to create.

The nerve of her!

Who does she think she is?

Some goddess in charge?

Tsk...

My eyes caught the dark sky of the night as I emptied another shot of the strongest tequila in my bar, kinda hoping that it would kill my anger and stabilize my spiraling emotions but drinking didn't help me. Within a few minutes, I was drunk yet I didn't stop drinking. "Why am I still sensing anger from you, Raid." The soothing voice of the woman my heart beat for, echoed through the bar and my eyes eagerly searched for the beauty of her face. "Don't tell me you are drunk because of her."

I couldn't stop myself from smiling sheepishly when Larisa's face popped before mine. She left to meet up with her old friends a few hours after the woman I was forced to marry vexed me. I might be drunk but I could still see discomfort and a bit of jealousy flashing through my Larisa's eyes.

"Not entirely, Isa, I'm angry though. She vexed me." I said to her, turning around on my high bar stool to pull Larisa in between my legs.

She stood tall like a glass of wine, her elbows resting on my thigh, "Same difference, Raid. I fear that you don't want me here nor do you need me. Perhaps coming back after all these years is a mistake-"
