Chapter 84: Confirmation

Killian’s POV

My eyes narrowed into slits as I stared at Giselle, who was looking anywhere else but me. I pulled her arm and raised it as I gripped her arm tightly until her skin had turned red.

This successfully caught her attention. She finally looked at me with fear in her eyes.

“Are her words true?” I asked her with menace laced in my voice.

Giselle swallowed hard as her face turned pale in fear.

“K–Killian, it hurts,” she winced as she stared at her arm, which was slowly turning red.

“Answer me!” I demanded as I tugged her arm without any care that she was in pain.

Giselle bit her lower lip as she looked at me with tears misting her eyes. “Are you seriously choosing to believe her words over mine?” She asked me, trying her best to act strong in front of me, but her voice still croaked because of the tears that she was trying to hold back.

My brows furrowed, and my lips parted slightly as I stared at her.

Honestly, I really don’t know who and what to believe anymore.

That night when I slept with Giselle, I couldn’t remember

anything. I don’t even know what I did, and I’m not even sure if she was the person I slept with.

My memories that night were foggy. All I could remember was

feeling Inexplicable heat in my body and wanting some release. I was also drugged that night, which is why I lost control of myself and had lapses of hazy memories of that night.

When I woke up, I just found myself sharing a bed with Giselle, and both of us were naked.

Giselle explained everything that happened to us, and I

believed her since the small memories that I have matched her story.

When I found out what I had done, I was so angry with myself for not being able to control myself and touched her. I felt remorse for what I had done, but just a few days after, Giselle found out that she was pregnant, and she told me that I was the only man that she ever slept with.

As I thought it back, I realized I was only taking all of her words for truth. I don’t even know anything myself.

“I only slept with one person that night,” I bristled as I stared into her eyes without loosening my hold on her arm. “Was it really you?” I questioned her.

Giselle’s tears finally fell as she pursed her lips together. “I am carrying your son, Killian. How can you doubt your own child?” she spoke tearfully.

“Drystan, answer me honestly!” I demanded as I glanced at him over my shoulder. “Did you and Astrid really have an affair?”

Drystan averted his gaze from me. I waited for him to speak, but he seemed lost for words without knowing what to tell me.

My jaw fell open, and a small bitter laugh escaped my lips as I realized how I had been being played all along.

“Astrid never cheated on me, did she?” I asked Drystan again, but he remained silent.

He couldn’t even deny my words because their lies were already exposed.

I should have known that Astrid would never cheat on me. Astrid has been a dutiful wife to me and a dutiful daughter–in- law to my mother.

Despite her lack of knowledge and experience, she worked extra hard to do her best as the Pack’s Luna.

In the years we have been married, I have never once heard any complaints from her. She never even retaliated whenever my mom would bully her and force her to leave and whenever I treated her rudely just because I never wanted her to be my

mate.

How could a kind person like that be secretly cheating? She couldn’t even speak a word against us, so why would she do something like this?

“Killian, this child is yours. Don’t believe them. They are just doing this to restore their ruined reputation,” Giselle pleaded with me.

Hearing her voice, I pushed her away from me, making her fall to the ground.

“Aaaah!” Giselle shouted as she fell to the ground. She

instantly held a protective hand around her belly to protect her baby.

“That’s not my child!” I yelled at her in anger. Hearing her voice infuriated me, so I pushed her away from me.

was about to turn around to see who it was, but the person bumped me by my shoulder, pushing me forward.

I stared at Alpha Damien strangely as he rushed toward Giselle with a worried look on his face. I watched as she helped him shift into a comfortable position on the ground.

“K–Killian, please,” Giselle cried out to me. “I am the one wronged here. These people are trying to turn things against me.” Giselle didn’t even pay Alpha Damien any attention. She is just so focused on convincing me to believe her.

I shook my head. I have no idea who is telling the truth anymore. I can’t just listen to their words anymore. I need facts.

“How will I know that you are telling the truth?” I questioned her. “I need my certainty, Giselle. I’m not going to consider this child as mine anymore unless a DNA test proves it. Without that confirmation, I can’t marry you and make you the Pack’s Luna.”
