Chosen Luna’s Chosen Alpha

Chapter 3.

Zora

After what I said about only one Luna, the air became tense. I couldn’t take it anymore. And it seemed like they weren’t going to discuss what they were going to do when the Moonhunter arrived.

So I left when everyone was busy congratulating Alpha Garrick. As I started to make my way to my shared home with Casey.

Before we got married, we both lived in the Packhouse. As our wedding day near, he made me close my eyes and led me to a brand new house he bought.

“Do you like it? It looks empty now, but you can decorate it however you want. I want this to be your home, our home.” He held both of my hands in his. The way he looked at me, it was like I was the only woman in this world.

“Of course I like it! I love it! Thank you, Casey, thank you for giving me a home.”

I couldn’t help but lean in to give him a kiss, he held the back of my head, deepening the kiss.

“So, lady of the house, do you want to decorate the house so we could move in faster?” He said, a little breathless from the kiss.

We ended up furnishing the house by ourselves, and when I saw him putting together our bed, I could see myself living in this home forever. Like this, Casey instilled the concept of home in me. He was my home, he was my only family.

But when I stepped into the house, I saw the maids going in and out of our room, taking my clothes and dresses with them at the same time. What was going on? I stopped one of the maids and asked her.

“Alpha Casey said I could take some of the dresses you didn’t need…”

“Why?”

“Because Miss Kuhn needs them…”

“What?!”

“He said you don’t wear most of them so might as well give them to Miss Kuhn.”

I would laugh if I wasn’t so angry. How patronizing for him to say that, he was the one who was too jealous to let me wear anything deemed seductive by him. Now he said that I didn’t wear them so he could give them to his mistress? But I knew better than to take it out on the maids, they were acting on behalf of his order.

So I went into the bedroom and tried to stop the maids from taking any more of my clothes, then I saw the scene I was least expecting. Casey was making out with Lori, on our bed! They broke away when they saw I entered the room. Casey’s lips were stained red by Lori’s lipstick. He opened his mouth but quickly closed it like he couldn’t find words to say to me.

I just snapped. I slapped him like he did to me in the hotel, but I used all my strength this time. His left cheek was immediately swollen. He was shocked and frozen in place.

“You are taking care of this by bringing her home?” I asked him as I pointed at Lori, she lowered her gaze, unable to meet my eyes, her eyelids were fluttering.

“I…” Casey opened his mouth to speak, “I…” But quickly he closed his mouth again because he couldn’t find any excuse.

Suddenly, Lori grabbed my arm, pulling me nearly tumbled.

“Zora, please, just let us be together. I couldn’t leave him… I…”

She was about to say more to convince me, but I raised my hand to stop her.

“Okay.” I simply say.

This stunned both of them.

“What? What are you saying?” Casey asked.

“I said Okay. I will let you two be together.” I cast a cold glance at him, and continue, “Since you couldn’t give her up, then I supposed you are ready to give me up. I will make the decision for you.”

“That’s not what I want!” Casey suddenly burst out.

“I, Zora Rohan, from the Magic Fang Pack, reject you, Casey Grady as my chosen mate,” I spoke slowly but clearly, but with great strength, because the pain was overwhelming. I had to try very hard to not cry in front of them because of it.

Casey immediately dropped to the floor due to the pain. His hand clutched his chest. My rejection caught him off guard. He was still reeling from the shock and the pain from it.

Lori scrambled to help him stand, she was looking at me with a complicated expression. But I couldn’t care less about her.

I waited until the pain subsided a little before I spoke again.

“Accept my rejection, like I accepted my fate.”

“No,” He said with bloodshot eyes, “How could you give up our marriage of 5 years like this?! I wouldn’t give you up like this!”

Too bad, you already did, when you f**ked her.

But I wasn’t in the mood to argue with her, my head was still pounding from the pain. I began to pack my clothes, I couldn’t share the same home with them in a situation like this.

“I’m moving to the Pack House, and I won’t just abandon my Luna duty, I will continue to act as Luna until Lori is ready to rule alongside you.”

I said as I quickly gathered my clothes, luckily the maids only took fancy dresses, they didn’t take anything I wear daily.

“You just need to accept the rejection, and then I will be out of your hair completely. I wish you have a good rest of your life with each other.”

I didn’t know what I would do next, but I knew I didn’t want to be in their presence anymore. I needed to leave. Leave, I needed to leave now. I zipped up my suitcase, and put it upright, ready to leave the room.

Only to be pushed down by a huge force, as I looked up to see what happened, I saw Casey standing there. His clothes were torn, his wolf fur sticking out from the shredded pieces of clothes that were still hanging on his body. His muscles bulged intimidatingly, his eyes were completely red. He was breathing heavily.

I had never seen him like this, not even during war when he was fighting for our Pack.

“Why? Why do you have to make it difficult for me? Why can’t I just have both? All the other Alphas could have both their fated mate and chosen mate. Why can’t you share, like all the other women do?”

I was too shocked to register what he was saying, but when he reached out to grab me I knew I couldn’t let him. I raised my hand, ready to slap him again, only for him to take my wrist. And he didn’t waste any time to pull me closer to him. His hand was in the air, ready to strike, maybe to get back at me for that slap.

A maid suddenly ran into the room, panting as she stopped to a*sess the scene before her. Casey was clearly annoyed by being disrupted by her.

“What is it?” He asked impatiently.

The maid shook as if she was only remembering what she was here for.

“Alpha Casey! The Moonhunter is on our land now! He is attacking from the south, now he’s breaching our border, he will arrive at our Pack soon!”
