Chapter 5 0005

"I can see you're keeping yourself busy?" I didn't have to turn to know who that voice was.

"You made me your Luna," I said not turning an inch, the footsteps got louder as he moved forward.

You're not my choice Zuriel, you're my trophy if I meet a mate better than you, I won't hesitate," He spoke.

I knew he was telling the truth but he killed mine right In Front of my eyes, why he killed Theo, I didn't know why he did it since Theo had no beef with anyone, just an innocent omega who we were planning a future and an escape with.

"From now on, you stay where I call you and go where I tell you, did you hear that?" He spoke with his hands placed on my chin. My neck aches from trying to look at him.

He locked his hands drawing me closer, that's the closer I have ever been with him, my heart limped not of joy but of fear from what he wanted to do with me.

"You're mine Zuriel, no one has permission to even look at you, it should be a privilege to them," He said, his voice dead serious.

The beating of my heart became vigorous and I could tell he could hear it since he let my head go but still locked his eyes towards me.

"Why did you kill him?" I asked not realizing I said it out loud.

"Who is that? I don't have a memory of anyone," He asked, trying to pretend dumb but I could tell his mockery just from his giggle.

"Why did you kill him?" I asked again, placing my hands on the neck where he bruised.

"Do you even know who Theo was, you're crying for someone you know nothing about," He spoke again.

How bitter can a person be that he can't feel anyone's pain, or any remorse for what he did.

"I know much to know he loved me!" I yelled out.

The words seemed to piss him off, he walked in my direction placing my hands behind my back.

"The only reason I'm letting this one pass is because I didn't warn you earlier, this should be the last time you mention his name, the next time you try me, you won't like it!" He whispered.

I didn't know whether it was threat or jealousy but I can be sure it wasn't love, my resentment for him grew more.

I stumbled back to my room, my teary eyes nearly blinding me, looking at the balcony to see the presence of the shape-shifter. The food was brought but I couldn't eat anything, not the one presented to me by Luca.

After what seemed like hours my eyes still glued to the balcony, I finally saw the shape-shifter he walked out in the shadows but I could depict his smell.

I had to sneak out to find out the plan he had, I picked out my cloak covering my face to anyone, I could use the main door else Luca would notice me, so I used the window.

Being a rogue wolf gave me experience especially when it came to using the window, my sharp claws came out to help me hold myself, brick by brick I struggled till I hit down. On the window I could see Luca having a meeting with his men.

I yearned to hear what they were discussing but I had more serious matters. I hit the ground rushing outside where the shape-shifter was.

"Was it necessary to meet outside?" I asked to remove my cloak from my face.

"Unless you want Luca to smell betrayal, you'll have to meet me outside here," he said, his voice not as sweet and calm like it was before but cunning just revealing his cunning nature.

"What's the plan?" I asked, getting impatient.

" That's not the right question to ask my Luna, what do you want?" He asked

"I want him dead and gone," I spoke fiercely bitterly, running even from simple words.

"After his death, then what?" He asked. My lips got heavy to answer because that's the only thing I've desired.

"I.. I...I will be free," I spoke with enthusiasm.

"Don't be foolish Luna, you're the Luna after his death you're the immediate successor," He spoke.

I haven't thought in that direction neither did I want to rule the shadowfang pack bedsides no she-wolf has ever run the pack before it's unheard of.

"Just because you're a she-wolf doesn't mean you can't if you stand your ground," he spoke like he could read my mind.

"What do you gain from this?" I asked about the nature of shape-shifters.

"When you become queen, you'll have to lift the ban on my kind," he spoke.

I knew he wasn't helping me for no reason.

"You'll have to gain the Alpha's trust, make him fall in love with you, pretend like you have forgotten about his deeds. Then we'll strike when he least expects it," He spoke, lighting up his cigar.

The smell annoyed me so I caught it and threw it out of the woods. His eyes seemed irritated but he couldn't do anything, I was Luna.

"There's no way I can ever be close to him," I said with disgust, images of me and him in my mind disputing with that of me and Theo.

"To get what you want sometimes, you have to do what you don't like," He spoke my mind slowly agreeing with him.

" Get close to him, act like a good Luna, apologize, worship him, feed his ego, Love makes someone lose guard and that's what exactly we want from him," he continued.

" He doesn't have a soft spot, so you have to create one just for him," he spoke again and I was sold with his idea.

"His fall will be your rise Luna," he spoke and before he could finish, Luca's men footsteps could be heard fast approaching.

My mind couldn't fathom when he turned into a snake right before my eyes and slithered away leaving me at the mercy of Luca's men who found me standing outside covered.

How will I escape his wrath now?

"Luna the Alpha has been looking for you and I can tell he is not happy," George, one of Luca's trusted men, said.

I didn't fight them any longer, if he can kill me then he can die for me.
