The Female Alpha’s Sanctuary

Chapter 104
“Selene… please. There’s no denying we’ve wronged you, no denying that Landon has wronged you,. but please forget about his rejection. He regrets it now. Regrets it so badly, and so do I. You’ve made yourself more than before, Landon sees that. He now knows you’re worthy of him and the Luna title. You made your point across, everyone understands now. I- I’m not cut out for his Luna thing”
She gestures to herself as her tears freely spill from her eyes,
“I’m not strong enough. But you are. Save Nightwake. Save Landon. Save me.”
She presses her lips together,
“I’m still your sister.”
Seconds go by with her just looking at me. She awaits my reaction, her concentration pin pointed on my face to look for any signs of what I would say. But my face is blank. It’s as blank as an empty canvas when inspiration doesn’t hit the artist.

And all of sudden, a cruel laugh pulls from me. A body shaking, full blown laughter thrown on her face.
“Goddess.”
I laugh, wiping a stray tear from the corner of my eye.
“You think my refusal of Walker is only because of the rejection? You think I came back for the man? Do you hear yourself? You think me to be so hung up on his rejection that I built myself up for him? To make myself appeal to him? No man is worth changing myself for. I didn’t come here to seduce him into wanting me after all I’ve accomplished. This contempt I feel for him isn’t even a silver of the burning hatred I feel for all of you.”
I smile when I see her wince.
“The rejection broke me. I admit that. But what ruined me is what happened after. Betrayed by my own blood. Sent straight to the pack after the threats of the rogues were sent. You all wanted me to die. You all willingly sent me to Death’s door. The Goddess was so hateful to have me watch a whole pack burn to the ground and I was incapable of doing anything about it.”
Hestia’s eyes widened. A look of dread on her face when she realized that I had known about the warnings. The lot of them must’ve assumed no one else knew about their betrayal. The warnings that were sent by the rogues themselves. It’d teach them to be more wary of me.
“The horrors of what I’ve faced up until now is what changed me. Not because of my non existent love for Walker. I’m not some desperate, naive wolf who pants after a male who never wanted me.
sister. Much less got another female pregnant and made her Luna. Get that through your head, You’re the Luna now. You chose this path, so don’t you dare even think about throwing me into this mess when each and every one of you was so insistent in keeping me out in the first place.”
I press my lips thinly, pushing myself off my desk and stopped in front of her. The tidal pool of anger washing over my calming but secretly brewing in the center of my chest.
“It’s too late for regrets, Luna. You put too much at stake for you to change your mind now. Our blood relation has little to do with our situation so do both of us a favor and refrain from using such a pathetic excuse. You won’t get a semblance of sympathy from me. Understand I wouldn’t hesitate to burn you all down if given the professional reason to.”
