Chasing His Betrayed Luna by KiKi Jones

LARISA'S POV

I pulled the trigger. Twice.

While Aurelia screamed, "Jessica", I cried out, "Raiden" as he held on to his side, his eyes wide open.

Prior to the second shot, I was fuming with anger because I let myself get tricked by the female Aurelia called Jessica. I had seen her a few times but I never cared about her existence until she walked up to me like she had a death wish.

Jessica got me with her words. There was no denying that but nothing got me perplexed like seeing Raiden race toward me as I pulled the trigger for the second time, intending to put Aurelia out like I did with her friend whose body had hit the floor like a fallen tree. "H-how did you get here?" I cried out feeling a sense of grief as I watched Raiden fall to his knees.

My eyes fell to his side. I could see his blood leaking out of him even though he was trying to add pressure to the wound. My head began to ache at the sight just as my chest constricted. I shot Raiden.

I released a silver bullet into Raiden and he would die... there was no way he would recover from the deadly silver he took for the woman who didn't seem to care about him. Heck! Aurelia didn't even see him as he fell, groaning silently.

Rather than look at Raiden who was closer to her, Aurelia pushed herself off the ground with her son's limp body in her arms, and she dragged her bleeding and obviously weak legs to the spot where Jessica was lying. "Jess. Look at me, Jess. Please-" Aurelia started crying despite the obvious truth.

Jessica was dead. I killed her so it was only right to break the news to devastated Aurelia as I thought about the same fate befalling Raiden. "She is dead, idiot. I blew her brains out because of your selfish ass!" I snarled.

True to my words, there was a bullet hole in Jessica's forehead. Even the most powerful witch or healer would never be able to fix her.
