The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Nineteen - It Feels Like Home
Despite everything in Theo’s conscience telling him this was a bad idea, the pleading note in her voice and her wide, doe-like eyes broke the last thread of his resolve as he quietly relented. “Okay, Lucy, if you want me to keep you company, I get it. I just…wouldn’t Cassy be better to keep you company?” He asked softly as he made his way round to the other side of the bed. Lucy snorted loudly and huffed as she turned over in the bed to watch him as he got in, pulling the covers back before he did so to make it a little easier for him. “Don’t talk to me about her, “ She muttered grumpily. “Did something happen between you two as well?” Theo asked in surprise. He wasn’t particularly fond of Cassandra anyway, not with the way she seemed to manipulate others into doing what she wanted. Something about her had always given him the creeps but he had always tolerated her and remained civil because Lucy and her were practically joined at the hip. He scooted down the bed and laid his arm
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Twenty - A Few Hours Earlier
Cassandra had been creeping back across the courtyard to her dorm room when the sight of two shadowy figures chatting at the front caused her to freeze and take cover. The conversation with Caspian had not gone as smoothly as she would have liked and the fact that he still wanted to resist her made the risk of him talking and exposing her quite high.If he did talk, then she needed to make sure that her alibi was tighter than the hold an Alpha had over his pack. She had already rigged her laptop up with an auto clicker and basic program to make it look as though she was studying and surfing the internet if anything ever happened, but she had to make sure that she wasn’t seen in public tonight too.She darted a little deeper into the bushes that lined the edge of the building and crept a little closer to where the pair stood, hoping that she would overhear some of the conversation. Lucy was never out late at night, and if she was, it was never without Noah.A sly grin played at the edg
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Twenty One - Better than Expected
When Cassandra arrived at the doors to Noah’s dorm, she was met by a line of stoic guards, united in their desire to not allow her entry into the ranked wolves' quarters.“Do you even know who I am?” She demanded imperiously as they snickered amongst themselves and looked down their noses at this tiny female, bereft of any wolf that confronted them so brazenly.“No, we don’t,” The largest among them drawled, “because you have no wolf and no rank. The only way we would ever know who you were is if you caused enough issues to register on our radar, or if you were mated to a high-ranking male.”“Which you aren’t.” A second guard pointed out casually.“And probably won’t ever be considering you ain’t even got a wolf inside of you darlin’,” a third added in a bored tone, almost as if he were speaking to a child.Cassandra seethed silently and inwardly promised herself that as soon as she had the power, she would make sure that these idiots were added to her blacklist of those that would b
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Twenty Two - The Confrontation
Cassandra winced as the lock clicked and she pushed the handle down, opening the door as slowly as she could so as not to make any noise. She could feel Noah’s barely suppressed Alpha aura practically crushing her from behind. Despite the lack of her own wolf, she could feel the panic running rampant in her chest, slowly suffocating her and making it difficult to think coherently.It had taken Noah’s guards far too long to calm him down and initially, she had been bothered that she would miss her opportunity, but her fears were unfounded because as soon as they stepped foot on the landing outside Lucy’s room, Noah’s wolf had picked up Theo’s scent.He had barely managed to restrain his wolf from surging forwards and tearing his way through the door, and the guards that waited in the stairwell at his command had watched on anxiously, waiting to find out if they needed to intervene or not.Cassandra poked her head through the crack of the door cautiously and felt a stab of satisfaction
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Twenty Three - It Was Her
Lucy stared uncertainly at the motionless figure of Noah as he stood on the other side of the bed with his fists balled at his side, his wolf’s furious aura still present, but vastly diminished and seemingly directed elsewhere.“Noah…” She said, her voice shaking slightly and without much of a plan of what else she intended to say.“Don’t, Lucy.” He answered tightly, holding a hand up in front of him, “I can’t even look at you right now. This is too much…”Lucy stiffened slightly and she wanted to scream at him that he was out of order and that what she did in her own time was none of his business as they were no longer an item, but the knowledge of what he would do to Theo if he even thought that Lucy felt even a fraction more than friendship for him, stopped her from saying anything further.“What I want to know is why the fuck he came here tonight,” Maia snarled furiously, “We were sleeping. He had no business letting himself in here without our consent.”“I know, Maia. Maybe it wa
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Twenty Four - I Don't Know You Anymore
The following morning Lucy woke in a cold sweat. Her dreams had been filled with memories of Noah and her but they had been warped and twisted beyond all recognition. Their interactions in the past had always been memorable and he had doted on her, but now, in her dreams, Cassandra stood at his side in all of them, attached to his arm like a leech. “It’s just a dream, Lucy. We’re fine. She can’t change the things that have already happened.” Maia soothed as Lucy willed her racing heart to slow to a more reasonable pace.“I know,” She sighed as she glanced at the bedside clock and let out a strangled noise, “Fuck! It’s nine already? Shit…I don’t even know what classes I have anymore.”“Before you do anything, you should really take a shower…” Maia grimaced as she wrinkled her nose, "I didn't think night sweats were a thing at this age."“Yeah yeah, I’m on it,” Lucy grumbled, as she threw off the covers and hurried into her bathroom, diving headfirst into the shower.Once she was done,
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Twenty Five - Tell Me What You Need
As soon as the lecture had finished Lucy packed her things away as quickly as she could and made a swift exit, pretending that she hadn’t seen Cassandra waving frantically to her as she left, or heard her shouting her name over the ruckus of the hall emptying of students.She could feel Noah’s eyes on her back as she pushed through the crowded hallways and made her way down the halls, bursting through the doors and out into the courtyard beyond.“Lucy…” Maia murmured in concern.“I’m fine, I just..I just need some air.” she muttered back as she moved as far away from the crowd of students as she could.After making sure she was out of sight, she sank to the ground with her back against a tree, sucking in lungfuls of the sweet air that her lungs so desperately craved.“What happened? Lucy, what’s going on?”“ I don’t know. I felt like I was suffocating in there and I just needed to get out.” She sighed as she rested her head on her arm.They sat in silence as she stared at the students
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Twenty Six - Can You Help Me Or Not?
Theo sat opposite Lucy and watched with amusement as she demolished the sandwich that he had brought her only a few minutes previously. He raised an eyebrow and smirked as she looked up at him and scowled.“It’s rude to stare you know,” she mumbled as she pushed her plate to the side, with Maia purring contentedly inside of her.“Well, sometimes, you know, I can’t help it.” He grinned as he picked a napkin up off the table and quickly leaned over, wiping the spot of sauce away that she had missed above her top lip, and smirking as he sat back.Lucy could feel herself blushing furiously with embarrassment under his smoldering gaze that seemed to burn into her and touch her in a place that she would rather not think about in the middle of a bustling cafe.She cleared her throat and reached for her drink, surreptitiously wiping at the spot that Theo had touched only moments earlier.“So, about this little task,” Lucy began, a little flustered as he cut her off with a little chuckle.“I’m

Lucy watched in horror as her past self begged and pleaded with Noah as he loomed above her menacingly.“I swear Noah, it’s not what you think! I would never willingly cheat on you, not with anyone!” she sobbed.“Don’t fucking lie to me, Lucy!” He hissed furiously, slamming his fist on the bed as her past self flinched away from him, “You’ve refused to let me take you to bed, pleading with me to wait, yet with Theo, you’ve happily bent over backward, or rather, let him fuck you up against the wall whilst you wrapped your legs around his waist.” “Noah, i..”“SHUT UP!” He screamed as he ran his hands through his hair and began to pace, his eyes almost feral as his wolf raged inside of him, “There’s absolutely nothing that you can say that will make this any better. What is it then? Am I not good enough for you?”His face took on an almost manic expression as he glowered down at her and his lip curled back in an open snarl. Lucy’s past self attempted to scramble backward as far as she c
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Forty Five - A Different Past
“What the hell…again?!” Lucy murmured in annoyance as she found herself once more in the dreamlike state that allowed her to watch events that had happened in her past, that she had been entirely unaware of.It was a strange feeling, being an ethereal bystander as the people who had betrayed her so deeply went about their business in front of her. She slid down the wall onto the ground next to Maia, as Maia yawned loudly and scratched behind her ears.“I’ve had the pleasure of seeing this one multiple times when our link was severed,” Maia said in a bored tone, “Do you want me to tell you what happens?”Lucy wrinkled her nose as she thought about it and shook her head.“No, it’s ok. I feel like the Goddess wants me to see these things for myself to keep me on track and remind me of who I can trust and who are absolute pieces of shit.” Lucy smiled humorlessly as Maia snorted.“Well, I can tell you now, it would be more helpful if the goddess would give us a heads up about our past li
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Forty Four - New Besties
“What are you doing here?” Ella gasped as she stared at Cassandra in horror.“It’s a free country isn’t it?” Cassandra shrugged nonchalantly as she examined her nails in feigned disinterest, “I can wander wherever I want to, without asking permission.”Ella gaped at her in disbelief.“Are you fucking with me?” “Now why on earth would I do that?” Cassandra smirked, strolling casually into the room and walking around the edges, trailing her hands along the wall as she did so.“Because that's what you fucking wolves do,” Ella suddenly snapped, “Anyone who isn’t like you, you fucking crush beneath your furry hides until they’ve either submitted to you completely or they’ve eradicated your kind from existence.”Cassandra stopped and tilted her chin arrogantly as she looked down her nose at her.“They do, don’t they.” She purred as she slowly moved a foot forward and kicked over one of the candles that had been so neatly arranged in a circle.She chuckled at the confused and angry expressi
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Forty Three - The Hybrid
Noah had finally left Theo alone with Lucy so that he could go and freshen up. It had been almost a week since Lucy was admitted and she had started to spend a little longer each day awake.She had been confused at first about what had happened and then angry that Noah was there at her bedside, but they had explained it away to her as simply concern.Theo tried to take the nighttime shifts so that she wasn’t alone but the nurses hadn’t been keen on this until Noah stepped in and said that he would be there as well. So of course, as their future Alpha, they had relented and allowed them both to stay.They had soon discovered though, that at night, her dreams seemed to be full of nightmares and she frequently called out in her sleep.Tonight though had been quite calm so far and other than a little tossing and turning, she seemed to be much more settled, much to both of their relief.So, Theo sat with his textbook at her bedside, while he waited for Noah to come back. The textbook on St
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Forty Two - The New Girl
Cassandra paled considerably as she stole a glance towards Noah and Theo, quickly avoiding their eyes as they both shot a disgusted glance towards her.“Thank you, Frederick. Do you have any idea when she’ll be allowed home?” Noah asked.“When her bloodwork comes back clear and physiologically she has recovered, then she can return home.” He answered with a nod, “Now if you’ll excuse me, I have other patients to see. If you need anything in the meantime, please don’t hesitate to drop by the nurses station.”Noah and Theo nodded to him as he left the room and as soon as the door shut behind him, they rounded on Cassandra.“You should be fucking ashamed of yourself!” Theo hissed furiously.“ME?! Why should I be ashamed?! I can’t help it if she lied to me about things, or if things looked the way they did!” Cassandra yelled back and turned to Noah, “You saw how they were together! You can’t tell me that you didn’t reach the same conclusion as I did when you entered that room and saw her
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Forty One - She was Drugged?!
Noah and Theo sat in the private room Lucy had been transferred to in awkward silence. Noah had seen the way Theo looked at Lucy and despite his earlier apology, he still felt as though Theo felt more for Lucy than he was letting on. After all, he had seen that look of devotion before …it was the same way he looked at her whenever they were together.There had still been no news about Cassandra either, although he had reluctantly messaged her to ask her to come to the hospital. All three of them needed to talk seriously about just what the hell had been going on recently between them all.“When she’s recovered from whatever this is, I’ll make sure she gets home safely,” Theo said grimly as he sat at her bedside.“No, we’ll both take her home,” Noah replied with a scowl as Theo sighed and leaned back in his chair heavily.“Seriously?” He huffed, shaking his head in disbelief, “I think you’re the last person she wants close to her at the minute. Don’t you think that her feelings are go

“Keep your eye on that fucktard,” Noah hissed to his entourage as two of them hastened to obey and stood watch next to his body.“The ambulance will be here in a few minutes Alpha.”“Good. We’ll wait outside for them,” “We can’t just leave her here,” Theo hissed as Noah strode towards the doorway.“I don’t intend to. I’ll take her downstairs. I would rather the rest of the shifters don't see her in this state so I’ll carry her out as if she’s simply had too much to drink. We can explain when they arrive.”“Oh my god! Lucy!” Cassandra wailed as she rushed to the doorway just as Noah passed through it and attempted to cling to his arm, but he shook her off.“You can get the fuck out of here too.”“Noah, please...I was just trying to help…”“Help?!” Noah snorted, “If this is helping I’d hate to see what the fuck you think causing problems is for people.”“I didn’t know she had a drug problem!” Cassandra whined as Noah froze on the spot and gritted his teeth, turning to her slowly with a
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Thirty Nine - What did you do to her?
“I told you I wasn’t lying.” Cassandra murmured, turning her head in a perfect act of shame and devastation, “I’m so sorry that she did this to you.”Noah’s face was unreadable as he stared intently at the two figures on the couch but internally, his wolf was practically feral. He wanted to be let loose on the male that dared to lay next to his mate and no matter how Noah tried to explain that she and her wolf had rejected them, it just didn’t seem to sink in.Without bothering to look at Cassandra he stepped forward quietly, looking down at her half-naked body for a moment before shrugging his jacket off and laying it over her exposed skin.She murmured in her sleep and the way her brows scrunched together made his heart ache for her to be laid in his arms, not this male that she had just met. He narrowed his eyes at the man beside her and snorted softly.“I know you’re still awake, male, your breathing is not deep enough to be truly asleep.” He snarled quietly, “I can hear your hea
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Thirty Eight - I Am NOT a Psycho!
As the small group of them made their way up the stairs, Theo’s voice called out above the music towards Cassandra and she froze.She knew for a fact that he would try to think of a way to defend Lucy and her actions, but there really wasn’t any rational explanation that he could offer that would excuse her from the situation Cassandra had set up.She wondered whether or not it was a good idea for him to come with them, but perhaps this would be the push that he needed to finally turn away from that uppity little bitch.“Theo!” Cassandra waved, gesturing for him to head over.He and Noah exchanged scowls as he passed and Cassandra felt, rather than heard, the low rumbling in the air around them resulting from Noah’s warning growl.“Where did you all disappear off to? I turned around and you were gone. Then I tried to find Lucy and Caspian and I couldn't seem to find them anywhere,” Theo frowned.“Yeah, I tried to find them as well so I went looking for them in case they had gone somew
