The Perfect Revenge Of The Luna Queen

Nyx's Pov

"So sister... your child's a bastard?" Keira said as she looked my way, a sly grin playing at the edge of her lips.... Her hands waving the DNA test results at the crowd.

Gasps filled the room... heads turned and every single eye was on me.

"Keira! What are you saying?! Liam is Zade's and my son. What are you talking about?" My voice shaky as I spoke.

"Oh please. Do you think we're stupid?! Every single one of these people have trusted you to uphold your duty as Luna but instead, you deceived them and gave the Alpha a bastard for a son,'' Keira spat.

"Keira, stop making a scene," I whispered into her ears. "We're here to celebrate your coming.. not to question the paternity of my child. This is not the place and time for this."

"Keira is right!'' A deep commanding voice echoed from behind bringing the murmurs to a halt.

Everyone's head turned to the direction of the voice.... Zade walked in, a glass of wine swinging in his hands.

"Okay guys," I chuckled. " Zade... I can't believe you joined Keira to pull a prank on me."

"A prank?" Keira muttered. " This is not a prank... you fooled the alpha and the entire pack and you have the guts to call this a prank?"

"Keira is right Nyx, that bastard is not my son," Zade uttered, his face etched with disgust.

He wasn't joking.... There was no sign of amusement on his face. Only anger... pure rage.

A sharp ringing pierced my eyes, drowning the gasps of the people around me. My breath trembled, my body numb as I searched his face in disbelief.

"Zade, how could you say that? Liam is your son and you know that!'' I said.

The guest's whispers grew louder, what started as a simple gossip turned into something hostile.

Some spat in my direction, some cursed me, the rest just stared at me in utter disgust ... but none of their opinions mattered.

The opinion that mattered was Zade's.

I ran towards him, hoping he'd at least believe me.

"Please,'' I begged with teary eyes, searching for any hint of doubt, even if it was the tiniest bit.

"Liam is your son. You know it. You were there when I gave birth to him two months ago. You can't believe any of this''

He stared down at me irritation marring his features. For the first time since he stepped into the room, he stared at me and he wasn't the man I remembered. This man standing before me was devoid of any emotion.

His dark eyes left mine and faced the room instead.

"She gave birth to a bastard for the Crescent moon pack and according to the elders, it's against the rule.''

"Please Zade. You have to believe me. Please...'' I whispered, tears trickling down my eyes.

"You are nothing but filth Nyx. You've ruined the reputation of alpha Zade and the entire pack. You can't even keep your legs closed," Keira sneered.

I ignored her and turned to Zade who was now staring at me.

For a moment, I thought his gaze softened. I thought somewhere in his heart, he believed me.

We had been married for a year, I carried and delivered his child safely. I thought his silence meant that he was considering his own intuition.

But then his gaze hardened again and he turned back to the crowd.

"I hereby denounce Nyx as the Luna of Crescent moon pack. She has brought shame to me and to the entire pack members and I'm afraid she can no longer bear the position of my Luna anymore. As tradition calls for, I am to find a new Luna and mate to bear the responsibility of the pack.''

He paused and pulled Keira closer.

What in the name of the goddess is happening? I couldn't believe my eyes.... Zade held Keira's hands and planted a kiss on it.

Keira was only allowed into the palace after I invited her, how did she get so intimate with Zade?

I wasn't sure if I was missing something or I was just overthinking things. Was this planned all along?

I carefully rose to my feet, my ears straining to hear the next words that'd drop from Zade's mouth.

"Meet your new Luna, Keira.''

I froze, my heart racing. How could he discard me and take her in so fast?

My head spun... my mind reeled with different thoughts and imaginations. The tears I had been holding in fell freely down my cheek.

Was this all planned? Has Zade been having an affair with Keira behind my back?

He had promised to make me his Luna a year ago to keep his position and keep me by his side too.

I watched the love I had for him before and after our marriage, crumble to the ground.

He solely confessed to Keira right in front of everyone.

"She has been the one I fell in love with from the moment I was born a leader. She's my true mate and your Luna."

I fell to the ground. The realization punching harder than I could endure.

"So to you Nyx..." he knelt to the ground and lifted my chin. "You're no longer needed here. You were stupid... giving me your all thinking I'd as actually love you. Tch! In your dreams."

Tears slowly dropped from my eyes, his words crushing my bone and piercing my heart in pieces.

"You were only married to me because Keira needed her college certification, and you? You just wanted to be a house wife but you failed," his words crushed me harder.

He took a step closer to me, I took a step back.

He leaned forward and whispered into my ears.

"Liam is indeed mine and that's why I'm going to keep him." He grinned.

"What?" My voice was barely audible. "You...you can't take my son, he's mine too." I protested.

I grabbed his shirt, screaming. "You can't take my son from me... book." But he shoved me to the ground. I hit the floor, pain shooting up my ankle. Gasps filled the hall, but no one moved to help.

"You touch me again, and I'll have you hanged." His voice was cold, it was nothing short of disapproval.

Tears burned down my cheeks. Zade never loved me, he only needed an heir and I provided one.... Now his true love is back and I was disposable.

I looked up to Keira, her smile wide enough to show how excited she was. The last time we spoke over the phone before she arrived was when I gave birth. She said to in a very sweet voice.

"I'm so happy for you, Nyx. At least letting go of college does pay off. You've got a man that loves you and now you have a child"

She said those words and I believed she was there for me. I believed every single word she said.

I believed every action of Zade and the love he showed, rather the one he pretended to show.

The man I once loved, betrayed me.

Anger coursed through my veins. I lunged towards them, yelling and screaming. "You fucking bastard." I smacked and bit hard on them, as much as I could.

Keira shoved me to the ground after she managed to pull my hand away from her hair. I was held too tight to be satisfied.

I was far too broken now. It was petty and foolish, but it was the only thing I could control.

"Lock her up! She doesn't deserve to be among us anymore." Zade ordered.

The guards seized me instantly, dragging me away as I screamed, kicked and begged.

"Zade! Give me back my son."

The guards dragged me across the hall, I screamed for Liam until my throat burned but no one listened.

Then they threw me into the dungeon. The ones made for low ranked rogues.

The door slammed shut, my body shook form the cold but my mind burned with one thought. I would get Liam back-No matter what it took.
