Chasing His Betrayed Luna by KiKi Jones

37. Away Forever

ALPHA RAIDEN

My efforts to keep Aurelia in my pack were proving to be futile. Despite shifting the final rounds of the games so I could have more days with her and also figure out how to make sure she never returned to the Black Fur pack with Tristan, I have failed. In three days, the final round of this year's pack games will come to an end and the next day, Tristan will take Aurelia away forever. Fuck!

"You're giving up? So soon?" Lex snorted within me.

I retorted sharply, "What else would you have me do? It's not like I can tie her down when it's time for her to leave."

"I don't expect that but you could at least try to find out who tried to kill her after she escaped the pack. You know she isn't lying and finding the culprit might help to lessen the hatred she bore for you." Lex said, forgetting that I had just three days left. There was no way I could trace down the assassins from six years ago in three days. Especially not when I had to oversee my warriors and other representatives' training in preparation for the finals.

"If you have a better idea than this, share it with me, Lex because this one is highly impossible." I sighed in defeat.

But Lex snarled, "Why don't you ask Larisa if she was the one behind the assassins? I remember that she wasn't pleased with the way you were obsessed with the search for Aurelia. What if she did this?" Lex brought up a theory that I had considered in my head many times in the past few days.

"Larisa isn't a killer, Lex. All she wants is to be my woman." I defended Larisa even though I had accepted that I no longer loved her like I used to.

My love for her might have faded but I still saw the good in her.

Lex hissed into my mind before blocking me off, his anger pumping into my veins, "You're more stupid than I thought if you believe that woman doesn't have the gut to kill someone for the Luna position. She has secrets, dammit!"

I heard some of the servants jubilating because of Luna Aurelia's return." Tara asked, throwing a punch at her partner, "Why would they be jubilating? I thought everyone in the pack hated her or are we pretending to adore her now because she returned stronger?" "She did kick your ass,
