That word-Luna-slipped out before I could stop it, but I knew at that moment that it was true.
I was going to propose to Audrey tonight. I was going to make her my Luna, help her shift, and end all of this nonsense.
But first, I had to put Stella Brooks in her place.
“Luna?” My mother threw her head back, blonde hair bobbing, and laughed abrasively. “Did I miss the wedding, or is this another one of your lies?”
Clenching my hands into fists, I stormed up to her. “It doesn’t matter if she’s the Luna now or tomorrow,” I replied coldly. “I’ll not have you speak to her like that. Being cruel to her, shoving her at a public event, attempting to humiliate her.”
My mother scoffed. “I think I have the right after what she did to my husband. If you’d speak to your father, you’d know what he’s like now. A husk of his former self… Always babbling on about death and ‘the void. You should have just killed him instead.”
“And if I see him again, maybe I will,” I replied quickly. “But all Audrey did was show him the truth—and to call her destructive for that is just downright ignorant.”
To my surprise, my mother remained silent.
“If you want to talk about ‘destructive’, then maybe we should talk about what you did tonight,” I continued, my voice lowering to a dangerous level. “You sought out that little girl—told her to come and talk to us. You thought we wouldn’t be able to handle it. That Audrey’s secret would come out. You used a child for your own satisfaction.”
“And it nearly worked,” my mother sneered, folding her arms across her chest. “The world deserves to know the truth. I mean, honestly, Edwin… You’ve always been a troublemaker, but this? Lying about the Silver Star? It will only backfire.”
“Perhaps. But it was my idea, and thus my own burden to bear.”
“Well… it was a p*** poor idea, wasn’t it, darling?”
My wolf growled in response to my mother’s goading, but I quelled the urge to lash out and instead took one more calculated step toward her.
“Whatever you might think of my decisions, Mother,” I growled, “I am the Alpha of Crescent-not Father, not you, not anyone else. Me.”
“You don’t deserve it. I’ll tell everyone that—”
“Quiet.”
I rarely used it—my Alpha Voice. The intonation that could force anyone in Crescent pack to step back into line, to obey. To
it was an archaic ability, one that was used by ancient Alphas to control their people into borderline slavery.
But I didn’t care at this moment.
