The Abused Luna’s Comeback - Chapter 147 - Chapter 147

[Rose’s P.O.V.]

When I woke up, I found myself lying on the bed in the apartment and Susanna was sitting right beside me.

When she saw me open my eyes, she touched my face and my forehead as her eyes were filled with heartbreak.

“I don’t need you to pity me.” I turned my face to the other side.

“Rose, you misunderstood Alonso. He really only wanted to protect you.”

“Heh, he really protected me well. He might as well just present me to the vampires.”

The thought of him not telling me the truth which led me to reject my mate just infuriated me and I could feel my anger boiling up again. I hated him, hated all of this! How could he add that Edward was going to marry Emily to make her the new Luna? I didn’t believe that Edward would do that, especially if he has returned to normal by now.

“He saw through that imposter and immediately came to me for help. The imposter was surrounded by a very powerful dark magic that only high-level dark wizards could cast.”

“So?”

“Although he saw that it wasn’t the real Alpha, he didn’t know where the real Alpha was and thus thought that there was no point in revealing that. He didn’t want you to live in the shadow of that imposter, especially since that person might hurt you and your child.”

“If I knew that it wasn’t Edward, I would never have left the pack. I would have waited until my mate was found.”

“Darling, that is what we hope for too but no one knew where Edward was at that time. I had asked my wizard friends to keep an eye out and Alonso had also asked some Werewolves of Chaos for help, but we didn’t dare make a big fuss over it because we still didn’t know who was behind all of these and what truly happened to Edward. If news got out about what had happened, it could be a fatal blow to the pack.”

“Oh, so now I’m the one being unreasonable?” I couldn’t help being sarcastic.

……

“I didn’t mean that. You made the choice for the safe birth and growth of your child.”

When Susanna mentioned the child, I became a bit more taciturn. Indeed, even if I firmly believed in waiting for Edward to ‘change for the better’, I would just be walking through an endlessly dark tunnel because that person wasn’t Edward in the first place.

“Susanna, I don’t trust Alonso anymore. He thinks he can deceive me as he pleases in order to achieve his goal. All I want to know now is if Edward is really marrying Emily to make her the pack’s next Luna. Tell me the truth, Susanna. I’m the Phoenix Soul wolf so I know you won’t lie to me.

“According to the information I received, it’s true.”

“How did you get it?”

“From the pack, Rose. And whether it’s true or not, the fact remains that Alpha hasn’t done anything to stop the news from spreading.”

“Edward can’t marry Emily to make her Luna! I need to talk to him!” I shouted loudly as my eyes started to feel a sting.

“Rose, when you cut off your relationship with Alpha and Sunset Pack, you’re no longer their Luna. If you insist on returning to Sunset Pack, please be careful. Alpha is already acting abnormally and we still don’t know the people behind all of these. If it’s Nicholas, you’ll basically be walking straight into a trap because it’s very likely that he would have managed to recruit high-level dark wizards and witches to execute his plans for him.”

“D*mn it all! Am I supposed to be destined as a single mother?”

“I don’t know, but you have to be patient right now. I will do my best to protect you and of course, Alonso will too. Honestly, do you know that your words earlier really hurt him? I’ve almost never seen him cry.”

“I just said what I felt,” said I curtly. I was still unwilling to forgive him.

“You’re his direct descendant. This is equivalent to his child scolding him. I may have known him for a long time. But I understand your feelings too.”

“You can leave. I’m a little tired.”

“I’ll take you to Dr. Bason’s place for a check-up tomorrow. Although it’s not time for the regular prenatal check-up, Alonso is afraid that tonight’s incident will affect you and the child.”

“Okay.”

Susanna helped tuck me into bed before she left. In the end, I lay on the bed and looked at the empty ceiling in a daze.

I had just left the pack but my mate was going to marry and make Luna the very person who once hated me? If he was the real Edward, I would never have believed this news, at least not that he acted in his right mind. My only hope is that the person who made this decision wasn’t the real Edward. If he was, then I hope it was because he had other motives.

If he was simply disappointed and desperate to appoint a replacement for me, then I would have nothing to say. I started to resent myself and the fact that our relationship was more fragile than I had imagined.

I didn’t think the second possibility was very likely, but I decided to wait and see. My child was growing day by day, and soon he or she would be born. The world of motherhood was my main priority now. I had to protect my child.

After all that I had been through, I could only hope that the moon goddess would bless us all and let the truth be revealed soon.
