Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 132: Jealous

Asha's POV

"Asha! Watch out your words!" My brother scolded me with a narrowed gaze.

I pursed my lips as I felt wronged by both my father and my brother. Ever since Astrid came into our lives, I've done nothing but wrong in their eyes.

I was just concerned about them, that's all. They are my family members, and it's normal for me to worry about them.

"What's wrong with what I said?" I retorted, refusing to back down. My brother has to know what Astrid is up to. He was away from our Pack for a long time, and he had no idea what had happened to us while he was gone.

He needs to know what that woman is up to.

"You don't know that person the way I do. I swear, I knew she was up to nothing when she and her friends arrived at our Pack. I'm sure you've heard the news about the Nightsong Pack. They are taking advantage of our father. She came here just to save their dying Pack!" I spoke fervently so he would see that this is not a simple matter that we should turn a blind eye to.

However, my brother just scoffed at me. He looked at me without taking my words seriously. "You think Dad would allow someone to take advantage of him like that? He has punished corrupt officials; he has overthrown many devious schemes in our Pack. He is not going to let a mere omega fool him like that."

My gaze sharpened in bitter anger when my brother did not believe my words. "You don't know her like I do!" I retorted with a finger pointed to my chest. "She's got all our father's attention and favor because of her traumas," I drawled out the word "traumas" sarcastically. For all I know, maybe she was just faking it to gain my father's attention.

"Asha, even if she's here to take advantage of our father, I'm sure he would never let her, even if he is fond of her," My brother argued in a soft voice. "Even if she's our father's eldest and favorite child, an omega will never have a position on the throne. Our father cannot allow that, especially all our Pack members. You are getting worried about nothing."
