Chapter 19
Chapter 19
Kylie POV
Zoe was absolutely shameless, and I was getting irritated as hell. She was gradually destroying every relationship I had built in the past.
I knew well that the council wives didn’t approve of her, seeing her as an example of deceit, but they never openly spoke about it. At the same time, they didn’t support her.
Since she didn’t get their support, Zoe resorted to getting support from the omegas. It wouldn’t have been a concern if it weren’t for the fact that even the omegas from my pack were with her, which unsettled me. Zoe was going fast with whatever devious plans she had in her mind. I needed to amp up my plans, else I was going to face the dungeons.
I opened the letter in my hand. I thought it would be from the omegas, but it was from Zoe. It read:
“Dear Luna Kylie,
When Alpha Graham returned without you, I really felt bad for him as well as for the pack.
I thought I was alone in feeling like this and so I invited the omegas to ask about their opinions. They were so happy to join me and voice their opinions. They even said that they’ve never had such a wonderful party, which is quite a shame because being the Luna, you couldn’t even offer them this little happiness. Well… they voiced their opinions, and they all agreed with
- me.
However, I hope you aren’t furious about it. We all only want to bring you back as soon as possible.
Yours truly.
Zoe Muller”
Even as fury rose in my chest, I took deep breaths in order to remain calm. It was high time I reveal everything to Shir. Crushing the paper in my hand, I went to sit next to Fenris.
While Shir was from the Nightbloom pack, Fenris was from the Lunar pack. I didn’t trust him. I paused, my eyes narrowing on the suspicion that Fenris might betray me.
Fenris gave a knowing look to Shir. He came to sit on the couch next to Fenris. When Shir patted his back, he pursed his lips and lowered his shirt.
“Oh, my God!” I rasped, seeing Shir’s mark on his neck. “I knew you were mates! Many congratulations!”
Shir laughed as Fenris blushed. “But we’ve kept it a secret, Luna Kylie,” Fenris said. “Shir marked me after Zoe came in the pack. We are observing from the side how Alpha Graham is continuously cheating on you.”
“I am so happy for you!” I chirped. “This is the best news I’ve heard in a long!” It also meant that Fenris was on my side.
“Thanks Luna Kylie,” Shir grinned. “Please tell us what we can do.”
“There’s something very important I’d like to tell you guys,” I said, my gaze darting at both of them.
Shir’s brows furrowed. “What is it, Luna Kylie?” he asked.
I clasped my hands and said, “I am going to appeal to the Elder’s High Coun
to get a separation from Alpha Graham.”
While Shir remained nonchalant, Fenris gasped and sat ramrod straight. “But that’s-”

“That’s unheard of, right?” I said to Fenris. “But what are my options, Fenris?” I asked. “My options are either a lifetime of loneliness or standing up for my rights against Alpha Graham.”
Fenris’s mouth opened, but he snapped it shut.
I narrated them a few more details and added, “I want one of you to go to the Lunar pack and keep an eye on Zoe. I have a strong intuition that she is involved in something malicious.”
“We won’t go back to the pack, but we have our eyes and cars there,” Fenris replied. “And we are going to keep you updated.”
“Great!” I said. Just when I was about to say more, my phone screen flashed Zoe’s name, I didn’t pick it up, but it rang again and again. Ultimately, I picked it up. “Yes, Zoe?”
“Luna Kylie, did you receive my letter?” she asked in a mocking voice.
“I did, and I have to say that you did quite a show there,” I said nonchalantly. “I didn’t expect that from a Beta’s daughter, but it’s fine. After all, you wouldn’t know how to act as a Luna. Inviting the omegas for a party wasn’t an issue, but you don’t invite them to the Alpha’s house. You could have thrown a party for them in one of our gardens.”
“Luna,” she sneered. “I’m so sorry that I invited the omegas into the house. Last I checked, Alpha Graham didn’t have any objection.
I chuckled. “He won’t have any objection, because he knows you don’t know the protocols. Anyway, how can I expect you to know the protocols? You aren’t the Luna, right? Oh, let me rephrase myself–you aren’t a Luna anymore. You are just the other woman in a marriage.”
“I knew you would get back to me in such a demeaning way,” she cried. “All I want is for you to come back. I am doing you a
favor.”
I laughed. “Favor from you? Does Alpha Graham continuously invite other women to his house, impregnate them, and then ask them to do me a favor?”
“Kylie!” Zoe’s voice changed to a growl. “Rest assured, I will ensure that you end up in the dungeons. You don’t know me.”
“Are you challenging me, Zoe? Now that’s new. Does Graham know of your plans! And challenge accepted!”
She tried to say something, but I disconnected the phone and gritted my teeth hard. The conversation solidified my suspicion that she was involved in something mysterious, something I couldn’t pinpoint, and I needed to find out about it as soon as possible.
Shir got up along with Fenris. “Luna, she’s getting out of hand,” he remarked, walking to me.
I shook my head. “Don’t worry; I am doing something
Shir stepped closer and hugged me tightly. “You have my full support.”
Suddenly, the door opened. Alpha Logan walked in, his face contorted into a pure rage as his eyes landed on us.
