Reclaiming My Broken Luna by Selene Souchon

Chapter 301

Chapter 301: Weight of Betrayal Astrid's POV

Damien didn't have to say a word for Vanessa to understand everything. She could feel the uneasiness of his wolf through the mate bond.

They had been together for years, and Vanessa could easily read him like an open book.

The truth was out, hanging heavily in the air between them, but it was the betrayal that made her heart break.

Tears that Vanessa had been trying so desperately to hold back finally fell freely from her eyes. Her voice trembled, but there was no mistaking the anger behind it.

"How could you do this to me?!" she yelled, her voice shaking with fury and pain. "You deceived me, Damien! You played me for a fool! Why didn't you tell me the truth? Why didn't you tell me that Giselle was the mother of your child?"

The crowd stood frozen in shock, the weight of the revelations suffocating the room.

People exchanged glances, wide-eyed and speechless, not knowing how to process everything they had just learned.

No one had expected to hear such devastating secrets today.
