All Chapters of The Betrayed Luna Strikes Back: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

Selena's POVThe alpha stood there, staring at me, his eyes wide and unblinking, frozen in astonishment. "What do you mean, Selena?" he asked, disbelief and a hint of anger in his voice. "You're the answer to the plea of all, your abilities can take the entire werewolf race into a better place." He paused, taking his piercing eyes off me and staring at the werewolves behind. "All these werewolves gathered here...""....hoping that I would be executed," I said, interrupting him. "Yes, they really are here to see me scream in pain. They don't like me, they only like what I can do with the powers they think I possess." I was already in tears. I tried to stay strong in front of him, wiping the tears off my eyes. "If the stone had turned red, the whole scenario would have changed. I would be on my way to the beyond at the moment. " The tears were already pouring real hard. I couldn't control it anymore, my wolf couldn't control it. I cried, my face squeezing hard as I did. All the pain an

Rowan's POVThe fire in the fireplace crackled as it rose, filling the entire room with a warm orange light. Shadows danced behind me as the heat in the room rose. I leaned back on my seat and turned to the painting that I had bought the other day, studying the intricate patterns on it when suddenly, the door behind me opened. "You called for me brother." I turned my head slightly and found my sister, Raven, closing the door behind her and slowly walking up to me. "Is there any problem--" "There's something I have to tell you," I said, cutting her short before she could finish speaking. "It's... something that I do not want to leave this room." Ravens brow knitted together as she crossed her hand, her eyes filled with a mix of curiosity and caution. She took a few steps closed to me, her gaze never leaving mine. "What is it, Rowan?" she asked, her voice barely above a whisper. "You must keep this confidential, top secret," I continued, my eyes fixed sternly at her."I promise to

Rowen's POV"Thank you," I said to the maid, watching as she picked up the tray that she had brought my food with and walked away. Sighing, I picked up the fork by the side of my plate and stabbed the meat in front of me with it.It's been three days since I revealed to my sister what was going on with me. She had sent word to a certain wolf in our pack that she believed could help, asking that he bring the news of my predicament to the wolf in Moonstone pack. We were waiting for his response. I plopped the piece of meat that I had cut off into my mouth and began chewing on it when the door in front of me suddenly opened. I looked up and found Raven entering the room, her eyes scanning the place. "There's no one in here," I said to her as I returned my attention back to the food on my plate. "The talk went well," Raven stated as she fully entered the room, shutting the door from the hearing of others. "He has agreed to help." My attention still on my food, I nodded as I cut out an

Selena’s POV"You will act on his desperation," Zane said. I looked up at him, not sure of what meant by that."What do you mean? He's an established Alpha that would certainly address me as a male wolf," I replied, moving shifting a little so that I could see his face. "So how do I act on his desperation?""Hmm," he said, his eyes leaving mine for a moment. Returning them back, he asked, "tell me, what do you think he likes the most? What gives him pleasure more than anything else?"I stood up from my seat and walked very slowly to the other end of the room, my eyes staring into the empty space before me. "Power, money.... but mostly power," I said, staring at the painting of Zane's father, clad in armor and sitting on a horse. "What he wants the most is the desire to rule.""Power, you say?" I turned back and saw a smile spreading across Zane's face. "He can't be the alpha if his wolf is dead. Surely he can't, can he?""Of course he can't. He would be seen as a weak tool, unable to

Rowan's POV"No, my Lord, I refuse to be part of this!!" Elder Thompson protested, getting up. "We can't afford the time of staying idle and letting them gather alliances...." He paused, obviously weighing his next words. "Permit me to say this, my Lord, but you seem to be dull in all your decisions today and it's...""Oh, I won't take that from you, Elder Thompson," Raven said, getting up and pointing at him, her eyes turning blood red. He didn't budge, not even looking towards her direction as he continued. "You know what I mean, Alpha Rowen. Your approach to a pressing matter such as this is unfound. I believe that something is wrong somewhere." He paused, looking around. I observed as all the other elders nodded in support of what he said."Enough of all these, Elder Thompson," I said, trying my best to die the entire thing down. "I understand what you mean fully, but you have to see that we need to have all the rights by our side. Things like this require time and strategic thin
