Chapter 124: An Affair
Giselle’s POV
“Luna, please don’t be angry. It’s bad for our future Alpha. I promise you, what I have is a piece of good news,” The omega who just arrived spoke with a wide, infectious grin spread across her face.
“Just speak!” I snapped at her in annoyance, making her cower down.
After recovering herself, a small, imperceptible smile tugged at the corners of her lips as she leaned in closer, her voice lowering to a conspiratorial murmur.
“Apparently, the Nightsong Pack is on the receiving end of a lot of hate right now,” she revealed, a glint of something almost akin to satisfaction flickered in her eyes.
I raised an eyebrow at her. “And how is that possible? People were just desperate to meet Alpha Drystan and form an alliance with him last time. How come their heart changed quickly? Are you sure that your sources are correct?”
“Luna!” her eyes widened with hurt when I doubted her. “It was Alpha Killian’s most trusted source that had told me. I will never give you the news that I’m unsure of.”
I laughed when I heard her assurances. “What a joke? They are so–called Alphas, yet they are naive and narrow–minded people,” I laughed heartily once again with my head tilting back. “This is the biggest joke I’ve ever heard.”
My attendants also laughed and smiled with me.
“Those Alphas had no loyalty. They are so scared of taking risks they just go where the public leads them. They were just desperate to form an alliance with Alpha Drystan, and now they hate him once again. What has happened this time?” I asked her.
“It turns out that when Alpha Drystan came back from the Shadowfang Pack, he pushed all the Alphas away and insulted them. He announced that he would never form an alliance with anyone except the St. wfang Pack and the Frostbite Pack, with whom he is currently allied,” she answered.
I have already expected this. Alpha Drystan is not a fool like those other stupid Alphas. It’s normal that he would never repeat the same mistake of accepting them again after they had betrayed him.
“People are calling him ungrateful and arrogant just because they have experienced a little power. If it wasn’t for the Shadowfang Pack, they would be nothing. Now that the Shadowfang Pack has their back, he is looking down on everyone.”
“Those Alphas are foolish to think that Alpha Drystan would forgive them easily. They are so self- absorbed that they never thought about what Alpha Drystan’s reaction would be,” I explained to them, and they both nodded in agreement.
“You are truly wise, Luna,” Rhya, the omega who delivered me the news, replied.
“is this the good news that you have for me?” I questioned her. “How is it good that the Nightsong Pack are receiving lots of hate just because people can’t handle the idea of a weak Pack rising in the ranks?
Even if they are hated, it doesn’t matter as long as they have the Shadowfang Pack’s favour. Everyone would rather be hated by many than be disliked by one “Of course, this isn’t just the news I have, Luna,” Rhya lowered her head before me
“What else is it? Make sure it’s good; you’re wasting my time,” I told her with dissatisfaction.
“Luna, I also heard that Alpha Drystan returned alone to his Pack.”
“What?!” I accidentally blurted out loud. I was so surprised that my back leaned forward from my chair.
The omegas instantly lowered their heads at my sudden surprised reaction.
I cleared my throat and leaned back in my chair again. “Astrid stayed behind in the Shadowfang Pack?”
“That’s true, Luna,” Rhya answered confidently.
I pursed my lips and squinted my eyes as I thought about it deeply. After a long moment of silence, my lips stretched widely when I finally thought of something.
“Rhya, I need you to do something for me,” I spoke, the corners of my lips twitching slightly upward.
“Anything, Luna,” she replied with her head lowered in ready obedience.
“I want you to spread another rumour with me. This time, Astrid is having an affair with the Alpha of the Shadowfang Pack,” I chuckled at my words.
Rhya lifted her chin up with a wide look in her eyes, “Luna… but will they believe that? Last time we said that she was having an affair with Alpha Drystan, everyone regretted that they believed it after it was unproven. Will they believe a rumour like this again?”
“Luna, think twice; we can’t make another mistake again. I’m afraid if the Alpha of the Shadowfang Pack is included in the rumours, no one would believe it,” my other omega spoke up in support.
I laughed at their cluelessness. “Of course, everyone will. Didn’t you say that everyone hates Nightsong Pack right now? They will do everything to bring the Nightsong Pack down, even by believing and spreading this rumour.
I’m only giving them the way how to bring them down. All they have to do is to believe this rumour, and who knows, maybe the Shadowfang Pack will think that the only way to silence these rumours is by breaking their alliance.”
The omegas stared at each other with amazement in their eyes.
“You are truly wise, Luna,” they bowed their heads to me and spoke in unison.
I smiled. “The Shadowfang Pack had made the great mistake of supporting Astrid. Everywhere Astrid goes, she just gives bad luck. First, the Nightsong Pack nearly died because of her, and now she’s going to ruin Shadowfag Pack’s reputation. Let’s just see how the Shadowfang Pack would react to this rumour.”
“I don’t think this is just a rumour, Luna. Aside from the affair, I can’t think of other reasons why a powerful Pack would help losers like them. Maybe it’s the truth,” the omega answered.
“Maybe it is,” I replied with a smile.
