Chapter 2 Our Luna is Rouge

Ava`s POV

I woke up to a big bunch of flowers on my bed. I didn't bother to check what the note beside it read, I knew it was Ryan's way. I opened the food basket one of the maids had dropped beside my bed and munched on it hungrily. I tried to move my leg and get out of bed but the soreness between them wouldn't stop. He had brutally raped me. Now he was showing off his hidden personality.

The door jolted open, and my nemesis walked in. She had an unmistakable glow on her that irritated me so much, she bowed slightly at me, giving me the same sweet smile she threw at my ex and also my husband. My throat felt lumpy, but I didn't want to show my weakness to such a bitch.

"Luna Ava, I came bearing good news".

My insides burned in a rage. She didn't come to talk about her charade from the previous night, she even pretended to be on friendly terms with me, mocking my title as the pack's Luna.

"What is it?"

"I am pregnant with a pup", she said, beaming with a smile.

Heat rolled inside me, my wolf kept pleading to be unleashed. She wanted to rip her head off, but I was too weak for a change at the moment. I dug my claws into the bedsheet and boreholes into it. Her eyes never left mine, I knew she was coming to tease me like the clueless Luna she was.

"Whose is it? "My husband or Derek?" I questioned casually.

Pamela stood. It took her time to get over the shock of my knowness. They had been discreet enough with their affairs. For three years, I had been clueless.

"So you know?"

I rose from my bed and held her neck, pinned her to the wall. There was no aorta of regret in her countenance, the defiant gaze she gave me was proof that I was not feared at all.

"The Alpha is already aware of Luna. You failed to give him any for three years, and it was more than fair."

"Poor Derek! "Getting married to an undeserving harlot like you" I threw the word in her face.

Pamela laughed hysterically. "Poor you! Married to a man that can never love you", she shot back.

I couldn't hold it in, I released all the anger and resentment in me. I pounced on her, slashing her face with my claw. She tried to fight back, but I was stronger, adrenaline shot into my system. We tussled for a long time and the whole mansion was thrown into turmoil. All the maids rushed over to separate us, but I dared them to try.

Pamela looked down between her legs. The last punch I threw had landed on her stomach. Fresh blood trickled down her legs. I smelt it, it wasn't hers, and it was the fetus. I laughed like a maniac watching with enthusiasm as she shouted in awe.

"No, I can't lose you"

She lunched at me, and we kept on with the fight. I beat her up, not caring that she might be miscarrying the child, either it belongs to Derek or Ryan. Such an abominable pup shouldn't be born into the world.

"Ryan will kill ...you for....this", she managed to say in between breaths.

I held her by the neck and dragged her out of the room. She was already weak and powerless. I felt many eyes following me, but none was bold enough to get in my way. In Ryan's absence, I was still their leader. They bowed slightly as I passed them by till I got to the edge.

I contemplated in my head, whether decapitation was better, or should I just stick to accidental death. My eyes met hers, and she looked at me mercifully, but unfortunately I died inside yesterday. Before I could have a change of heart, I dragged her to the veranda and threw her off the ten-storey building.

Gasps filled the air as her lifeless body fell with a loud thud, blood seeped out from everywhere, and my eyes met with the beta that I suspected must be mind linking Ryan. I didn't care, one less person to kill.

"What did you do bitch!"

I felt his loud voice ringing in my head from the mind link; I had finally given the moon goddess a reason to grant my wish, my wish to die. I knew I was going to die, but not at Ryan's hands. I knew I was the only logical person in the mansion. Everyone else had to follow Alpha Ryan's orders, my husband.

In all the battle, I was stark naked. I felt a warm blanket draped over my body and I turned to see Derek looking at me with such heavy eyes.

"We have to get out of here before you get killed".

Derek held my hand and the sparks coursed through my vein. I didn't think twice, I couldn't. Whatever he says at the moment works for us. He held my hand and led me out of the balcony. We started running without looking back, and I heard the faint whisper in the air, the unmistakable voice of the beta.

"Luna is absconding with her ex-boyfriend".

That must be Ryan on the phone. I was gifted with enhanced hearing better than an average shewolf. In the midst of the confusion, I listened in to pick out Ryan's response.

"Capture and kill them both immediately!"

The word hit me hard, the same voice that had silently whispered loving words to me. I looked at Derek, who was panting hard, and he was holding on tightly enough that I wondered if I had judged him wrongly. Nothing seems to make sense right now; I felt our persecutors closing up on us. I only had one option: to use my last resort, which my father had warned me against.

"Close your ears Derek".

I closed my eyes and opened it again. My eyeballs had turned bright red, and I screamed in the air and a deafening sound filled the field. Our pursuers fell on their backs powerless. We were already close to the borders and almost to safety when the beta shouted at the top of his voice.

"Show no mercy, Luna Ava is rouge".
