I AM BETRAYED BY THE MOON Chapter 10
Elara's POV After much persuasion, the doctor finally agreed to keep my secret, though his concern was evident."Luna...do you need help? Is the Alpha maltreating you?" He asked, his voice laced with worry as he checked my vitals once again.I forced a small smile and shook my head. "Everything is fine," I lied.This was my battle —one that I had to fight alone.Damian.He hasn't even bothered to check on me. I was still his wife for goodness sake. The moment he chose Lyra over me, the moment he destroyed my family, he ceased to be my mate, my husband.He ceased to be my mate and husband since the day he chose Lyra over me and destroyed my family.I sat up, wrapping my arms protectively around my stomach. Last night, a foolish part of me had wished he would find out about the pregnancy. Maybe then he'd treat me differently. Maybe he'd try to fix us. Maybe he'd finally realize that my father would never do those things he accused me of. But why do I still love him? Despite everythi

Damian's POV I need to know whatever Elara was planning. I need to know about her discussion with the Elders because the way at which the Pack members looked at me—it wasn't the admiration I had expected. Their stares were cold, judgemental, and disapproving.They don't like me. They don't want me. Why? I'm their Alpha, and they'd better get used to that.I had rushed Lyra out of the room and was about to drive to the hospital when something tugged at me. Elara. I had hit her too. I can feel her pain through the bond. For a brief moment, I considered sending Kael to take care of her while I handled Lyra, but when I realised she was naked and unconscious, I had no choice but to go get her myself.When I walked in, she had already fainted. The sight of her, motionless and vulnerable, made something in my heart twist. I quickly dressed her up, my hands moving with urgency before I carried her out. My heart pounded —not from guilt, but from fear.She isn't allowed to die yet. I have spe

Elara's POV "Then prove it," Lyra snapped. "Go on your knees and apologize properly until I am convinced."At first, I thought I had misheard her. On my knees? She can't be serious, right? No she can't be.Damian stiffened. "Lyra—"She cut him off with a sharp glare. "Stay out of this, Damian."Then she returned her gaze back to me and repeated. "Go on your knees, Elara."She wasn't joking—she was damn serious. I parted my mouth but no words came out. I wanted to argue — to use my regular line 'I'm your Luna' to make her back off. I wanted to tell her she could go to hell. But I needed to do this— I needed them to believe that I was truly 'sorry'. And this is no time to worry about honor, was it? My honor won't save my family. My honor won't make them pay for everything they did. For now, I choose to throw those honors away. I lowered myself and dropped to my knees, my heart hammering against my ribs. The pungent scent of the hospital suddenly felt suffocating as I pressed my palm

Elara's POVBack at the Pack house, the preparation for Damian's coronation ceremony was in full swing. The grand hall was decorated with shimmering lights and banners bearing the Pack's power, but despite the celebration in the atmosphere, the pack members remained distant. Damian might have taken the title, but not their approval and loyalty.I moved through the crowd like a ghost, unnoticed yet aware of every judgemental stares, and whispers. Despite convincing the elders the previous day, the people still didn't trust Damian and that means they don't trust me too. And if this kept going, it might turn into chaos.I deliberately avoided Damian throughout the ceremony, slipping away anytime he tried to get close to me. But I could feel the tension inside him. Regret? A silent plea? I can't really deduce, but it doesn't matter to me anyways.When it was time for the official coronation at the grand hall, the Pack members could no longer keep calm. Their whispers grew louder.Seated b

Damian's POV Elara's words echoed in my mind, stirring a suspicious feeling—one I didn't want to entertain inside me.'Let me work at the company.'The silence stretched between us as I studied her carefully, searching as if I could somehow see her ulterior motive behind those steady, unwavering eyes. Elara was feisty, she isn't one to back down from a challenge easily, but this was unexpected.She had spent weeks resisting, rebelling, and yet now, she wanted to step into my world willingly. She even stood up for me when the Pack members doubted my capabilities, even went as far as kneeling down to show her sincere apologies to Lyra.This isn't the Elara I know. This woman won't retreat like this. Maybe she was tired of everything? Or perhaps she accepted her fate knowing quite well she was stuck with me forever.I narrowed my eyes. "Why?"She crossed her arms, her posture surprisingly composed despite the clear tension bubbling between us. "I need to get busy," she replied simply. "

Elara's POV Carefully, I masked my disappointed expression into neutrality as I stared at the two people standing in front of me.Ethan, my newly assigned bodyguard, was tall and interesting, his sharp blue eyes makes it difficult to read his mind. Clara, on the other hand, had a calculating glint that instantly tells me that there was more to her presence here. Her clipboard was clutched tightly to her chest, as if it held all the secrets of the world.I exhaled slowly, forcing a polite smile. "A bodyguard and an assistant? How thoughtful of the Alpha."Ethan remained silent, his expression stoic. Clara, however, flashed a professional smile that was cringe. "The Alpha has instructed us to assist you in any way necessary, Luna. I will be handing your schedule, reports and all work-related information."In simple terms: She was here as a human surveillance camera. While Ethan was here to keep track of my movements. Interesting.I leaned back in my chair, crossing my arms. "I appreciat

Elara's POV The next day, just around the time I had told Mr Graham to meet me at the hospital, I walked into Damian's office. I stood before him, my heart racing but my posture relaxed. I had to do this. One misstep, and everything would fall apart."The doctor told me the last time to come in for regular check-ups. I want to go today since it's the weekend," I told him, keeping my tone as neutral as possible.Damian barely looked up from his paperwork. "You can leave," he said. Happiness surged through me as I resisted the urge to clench my fists in victory before he added, "Take Ethan with you."Ethan. That is it. I didn't know why I expected Damian would let me go alone.My mind raced for a perfect excuse and when I found one, I feigned mild annoyance. "There's no need for that. If a guard follows me, rumours will start spreading that I'm sick. Do you really want people speculating about the Luna's health?"That got his attention, his jaw clenching. Damian was already calculative

Elara's POVI met her gaze, unflinching. "Don't be ridiculous.""Then you won't mind if I stay." She responded.I resisted the urge to mutter a curse. She was digging, pushing me to my limit. If I forced her out, she'd become more suspicious. "Suit yourself," I said indifferently, taking the empty seat beside her.As the doctor carried out the examination, I briefly checked the time and it was already 2pm—the time I had told Mr Graham to meet me. My mind raged with annoyance. She had just ruined my plans of meeting with Mr Graham. I couldn't even imagine the disappointment I'd feel if the busy man had decided to show up and I was the one who didn't. But then disappointing him was safer than letting Lyra suspect something.One hour later, the checkup was over and it was time to head home.I stepped into the parking lot, but as I reached my car, I heard the unmistakable sound of footsteps approaching. "Why would you keep me waiting?"I turned to see Mr Graham, his sharp eyes studying

I AM BETRAYED BY THE MOON Chapter 38
Author's POV "I can't believe those bastards failed," Kael seethed as he paced the hotel room restlessly. "There were five of them. Yet they couldn't defeat just one man."Lyra lounged on the bed, a glass of wine in her hand, as she glanced up at him. "You said they were the best in the country. How come they failed after all the money we paid?"Kael let out a dark chuckle, turning towards her. "How would I know they were up to no good," he snapped. "Get another money. I need to hire another assassin again."Lyra face twisted with shock. She couldn't believe her ears. After giving him all her life savings that she had been getting from Damian, he still wanted her to get more. "I don't have any money.""What did you say?" He stepped closer, his face twisted with fury. "I don't care. Get the money. Fuck Damian or anyone else. Just get the money. We need to get rid of Damian and seize the throne before that old hag returns."His words pierced Lyra heart. Fuck Damian or anyone else? He d
I AM BETRAYED BY THE MOON Chapter 37
Damian's POV I blinked repeatedly to be sure it was Lyra that stood in front of me and not some devil incarnate from the pit of hell. Kill the former Alpha? Elena's father? And even if it was part of my plans, he was once like a father to me in the past—a father-in-law. I shook my head, staring at her to confirm if this was the same fragile and kind woman that we grew up in the Rogue kingdom together, but unfortunately she was the one. She stood staring at me like she had just said the most natural thing in the world.Lyra. The woman I know was kind. While I was taken in by the Rogue king after my parent's death, I shut everyone out of my life. She was the only girl who would come everyday and offer me her toys to play with, her snacks to share with me, even though I would slap them off her hands and snap at her to stay away from me.But she never did. Her kindness and unrelenting effort pulled me out of my darkness. We grew up being there for eachother, our wolves running the clear

Author's POV Damian's fingers tightened around the phone, his knuckles almost turning white. He had just set his eyes on something unexpected, something that is enough to change everything completely. Silence fell over the room as he took in the message, the gaze of the Elders fixed on their Alpha expecting him to speak.."Elara...." He whispered, the air in his throat had vanished, his hands trembling slightly.Elara's heart slammed against her ribs. This is over. He must have found Gomez's message. She had been caught red-handed and there was no escape route. But then, his next words caught her off guard."Your father is awake?"Relief flooded her, but she didn't show it as she quickly answered. "Yes. He woke up this morning. Mother sent me a message."Murmurs rippled through the room and the Elders exchanged knowing glances. Their expression shifted from suspicion into relief. Elder Seraphina lips even curled up into a small smile."Thank Moon Goddess," Elder Seraphina said, her vo
I AM BETRAYED BY THE MOON Chapter 35
Elara's POVThe other Elders nodded in agreement, murmurs rippling through them.My gaze fell on kael and this time his smirk has completely disappeared, replaced by anger. Elder Seraphina had just put him in his place. What a shock.Then I shifted towards Damian, who had a flicker of doubt in his eyes. Damian was foolish. After everything I had done for me, even if I did try to kill, I hadn't expected him to believe so easily."Its true," Elder Gregory chipped in. "The Luna has been nothing but supportive. We must be careful while dealing with a matter as delicate as this." I heaved in relief, letting myself relax for a bit. Doubts. It was growing in the mind of the Elders. And they didn't know that everything I have been doing was an act I had to put on to save my father, the real Alpha.I stepped closer to Damian, whispering loud enough for only him to hear. "Convenient, isn’t it?" I pressed. "The moment you get attacked, someone suddenly accuses me of plotting your murder?" Becaus
I AM BETRAYED BY THE MOON CHAPTER 34
Elara's POV Damian's words rang in my ears like a bad music on a loop, taking away all the happiness I had felt minutes ago from mother's news about father's health. My body stiffened, my heart pounded as I stared at him, confused and shocked."Why did you try to kill me, Elara."The world around me tilted for a moment, but I forced myself to remain calm. I, Elara? Kill him? Where did he get the nonsense from?I turned towards the seated Elders, hoping that Elder Seraphina and Elder Gregor who had watched me since I was a child and capable of what I could do, would stand up and counter Damian's nonsense but they didn't—their eyes was filled with a mix of curiosity and doubt. The silence was suffocating, pressing against my chest.I opened my mouth, and surprisingly my voice was steady. "What did you just say?"Damian's gaze was cold, filled with unrestrained fury. "Don't play dumb, Elara," he spat. "I know everything."Everything? What the hell did he mean? Did he know I wanted to kil

Author's POV Damian's face twisted as he stared at Kael, his heart pounding. Kael sounded so sure—he can't be teasing him. But he was afraid to ask for Kael's evidence. What if it was true? What if the woman he was still holding onto actually wanted him dead?Kael smiled inwardly. Yes. He got him. He had never expected that after everything, Damian would still be holding onto Elara, which was ruining their plan.The plan was simple. Kael's father, the Rogue king raised Damian and pretended to be in full support of him, but what Damian didn't know was that the Rogue king actually wants the throne for his son, Kael. His plan was for Damian to take Lyra as his Luna, then eliminate him and Lyra will pass the throne to her mate, Kael.Lyra and Kael have always been entangled with each other but Damian was too blind to see it.Finally Damian opened his mouth and asked, "What evidence do you have?" Kael dropped the kit carefully, his tone smooth and highly manipulative. "I know you might no

Damian's POV Since I became the Alpha of the Cadman Pack, I had barely had time to let my wolf, Storm and go on a run, and he had been snapping at me in frustration because of his confinement and also for the way I treated our mate—Elara. So, this morning I decided to let him ran as much as he wanted, maybe that way I'd be able to clear my head. Alone, I made my way to the forest and without wasting time, I shifted into my wolf form, my paws echoing against the floor as I ran around the clearing. The morning air should have been refreshing, giving my wolf the freedom he longs for, but it did absolutely nothing to stop the raging storm inside me.Elara.I couldn't sleep all through the night because I was thinking of her, worried about her.Even I had failed to acknowledge it, I had noticed for sometime now that the strong, fiery and unyielding woman I know was gradually disappearing or maybe she was losing herself. She had gotten more pale, her body always trembling with fear and exh

Damian's POVShe hesistated but eventually obeyed. I walked toward my drawer, pulling out a small bottle of pills that I had gotten from the infirmary earlier, and a glass of water: the doctor had told me she had a severe headache so I ordered a very experienced healer to prepare a potent pill for headache. When I turned back to her, she was staring at me, suspicion laced in her gaze.Fuck! Did She think I would stoop so low and poison. C'mon, I may be an asshole who took back everything that truly belonged to my family, but I'm not that heartless. Besides, I already have the upper hand and resorting to poison was cowardice."What's this?" She asked, eyeing the medication in my hand.I placed the pills in her palm, crossing my arms. "Medicine. You've been sick. You need to take this."She scoffed, attempting to push the pills back at me. “Why should I trust that this isn't poisoned?" She said, and her distrust made my heart twist painfully. "And besides I don’t need it. I’ll be fine.”
I AM BETRAYED BY THE MOON Chapter 30
Elara's POV How was that even possible? His presence loomed over me and yet I couldn't perceive the scent of the man I despised the most. A werewolf's sense of smell was one of the strongest, and yet I was losing that too.No.I squeezed my eyes shut, my nails digging into the blanket as if that could erase the reality playing out before me."Elara," Damian's voice was annoyingly soft. "Are you feeling better now?"His hands reached out, moving towards my forehead but before he could touch me, I slapped his hand away with as much strength as I have left. "Don't," I snapped, my voice sharp. "Don't you dare touch me with those filthy hands. It's not your fucking business."His jaw tightened, but his expression still remained. "You collapsed, Elara. I have every right to be worried about you."I scoffed. "Worried? No, you aren't. You can fool everyone else but not me. You worry because you need me alive to serve your purpose."I saw something unreadable in his eyes. Guilt? Annoyance, may
