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
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Twenty Seven - What if it's a trap?
The last lecture that Lucy attended seemed to be over far too quickly. Even though she had covered all of the course material in her previous life, she got on particularly well with the female professor that took the class for Community and Pack Unity, and this time around, Lucy wasn’t just a silent bystander.The former Luna that took the class seemed particularly impressed by her knowledge of exactly how the New Moon and Full Moon pack runs helped to increase the sense of unity within a pack and Lucy felt that little prick of self satisfaction at the acknowledgement of her apparent grasp of the topic.She left the lecture with a smile on her face and having nothing else to do between now and her final lecture for the day, she made her way back to her dorm.“Still nothing from Theo?” Maia asked worriedly.“No, but it's only been a few hours. Relax. Save your energy. We have training to finish the day with.” Lucy grimaced as Maia pranced about excitedly in her head.“YES! Oh, I can’t
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Twenty Eight - Teaching a Valuable Lesson
After refilling the water bottle that she kept in her bag, and throwing a couple of snack bars in for after training, Lucy locked her apartment back up and headed over to the gym. It wasn’t too far from where she had emerged in the lake only a day prior and the thought of her abrupt rebirth and the circumstances surrounding it still gave her shivers.She changed quickly in the changing room, pulling her leggings and sports bra on quickly, followed by a large, oversized white t-shirt pulled over her head. She grimaced as Noah’s scent suddenly surrounded her and she remembered a little too late that he had always insisted that she use his shirts during gym.He hated the fact that the unmated males frequently took their places on the machines or on the benches around the room whenever the female gym sessions were scheduled. Lucy had tried to explain that the gym sessions were often shared by both males and females, but they usually kept to the opposite sides of the gyms, but Noah had arg

Lucy threw Theo a quick text message as soon as she had showered and only seconds later her phone pinged with a message alert.‘I’m done for today. Meet me at the coffee shop when you’re finished at the Gym, I’ll grab you some food.’Lucy grinned to herself and finished changing into her clean clothes as quickly as she could, stuffing her kit back into her bag haphazardly before sprinting for the door.“I really hope he’s found something that we can use,” Maia murmured as Lucy slowed her pace so as not to draw attention to themselves.The last thing she wanted was for Cassandra or Noah to see her in a hurry and arouse their suspicions.As soon as she entered the courtyard, she saw Theo waiting for her outside the shop with a bag clutched tightly in one hand as he waved at her with the other and began to make his way over to her.“Hey. Do you want to go somewhere a little less…public?” Theo asked as he pulled her into a quick hug.“You don’t want to eat here?” Lucy asked with a frown.
The Luna's Choice: Betrayed By My Alpha Chapter Thirty - Breaking And Entering
Theo and Lucy headed back to their own apartments to drop their things off after they had finished at the riverside and arranged to meet again just before midnight.As soon as she was home, Lucy busied herself with organizing her notes and her planner and readied her school bag for the next day so that she wouldn’t be rushing around in the morning.Before she knew it, it was almost time to head out and meet Theo.“You should probably change into something darker if you don’t want to be noticed. It’s almost midnight,” Maia suggested.Lucy nodded and changed quickly, throwing a short text to Theo as she pulled her leggings up and slipped her shoes on.By the time she arrived at the park close to the school's administration center, Theo was already there and dressed similarly to Lucy. He handed her a plain black baseball hat and a black face cover with a smirk playing at the corners of his mouth.“You better put these on, just in case they have cameras up in there. It would be better if

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

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
