#2 Chapter 28
Chapter 28.
The tension in the room was glaring as both the alpha and his luna waited patiently for Amelia to continued talking but she didn’t.
They had returned from their journey that fast because they knew that something wasn’t right in the palace but they didn’t know what it was and the lady here, who had decided to tell them everything is no more responding.
“I won’t like to read your mind before knowing everything you want to talk about and trust me, if I find out that you lie, you will not like the outcome and you will be sorry for yourself when my guards are done with you.” Alpha Casting said, sensing that Amelia was thinking of lying.
“Trust me, the punishment will be more painful than your little stay in the dungeon.” The luna added to the alpha’s threat.
“I am sorry for cutting myself halfway your highness, I was only thinking of the nicest way to say it out to you.” Amelia said, fear could be easily designed in her voice.NôvelDrama.Org owns this.
“Straight to the point young lady, I have not all the time in the world.” The luna snapped, glaring at Amelia, this time, the alpha didn’t stopped her from talking, he was getting angry himself.
“A maid, no, my stepsister yes, young alpha’s mate and also my stepsister. She is pregnant and the father of the baby is not known.” Amelia finally said.
“You are lying!” The luna resorted. Somehow, she still preferred Luna for her son to Amelia.
“She is not lying my love.” The alpha told the luna after reading Amelia.
“My alpha, I am only here to make sure the matter is look upon and that she doesn’t go unpunished, so as to teach other maidens a lesson.” Amelia said, a smirk slightly evidence on the side of her lips.
“Where is the girl?” The alpha asked calmly but one could sense the anger in his voice.
“She is with madam Sandra, I guess madam Sandra is trying to make her escape or she is trying to hide her, to hide the truth from you, your highness.” Amelia said.
“I think its high time madam Sandra pays for all my pains and that of my mother’s.” She thought.
The alpha chortled, “I know Sandra more than anyone in this palace and I won’t spare you next time if you say something like that about her.” He said, his usual ocean blue calm eyes radiating darkness and coldness.
“I’m so sorry your highness.” Amelia quickly apologized.
“Go now, going lady. I will take it up from here.” Alpha Castiano dismissed Amelia.
She left with a slight bow.
“What are you planning my love?” The luna asked the alpha.
“Planning of doing the needful.” He called on to a guard. “Call for an emergency gathering immediately, everyone in the pack must be present. Any wolf who dares me by not showing it face will be either killed or banished!”
“Yes your highness.” The guard bowed and left to carry out the order.
“My love, don’t do anything crazy.” The luna begged him.
“She should have thought of that when she was busy getting laid.” The alpha said and the luna thought that he was going too far.
“This is not the first time a woman will get pregnant and go freely in the kingdom and moreover, we haven’t confirmed from her whether she knows the father or not.” The luna said, trying to makes the king to think like her.
“It wouldn’t have been called an abomination if she is not our son’s mate my love, she is pregnant out of wedlock and I’m sure the baby is not my son’s, he can’t stoop that low!” Alpha Castiano said but then continued.
“Though I’m thinking, she might live if she knows the father of her baby and if he accepts her but if he denies her, her fate remains the same.” He matched out of the throne room after concluding.
The luna sat down gently as tears weighed in her eyes, “She is just a child, she don’t deserve all this suffering.”

“What are you doing here with her? Are you planning of helping her to escape?” Rebecca asked as she got to madam Sandra’s room. She watched as madam Sandra cleaned Luna up, she had woken up.
“What do you think Rebecca? I am not the type that fight against destiny but rather, I used to help people to fulfill it and helping her in running is not the best thing for her.” She grabbed a tray of food and placed it on the table next to the bed where Luna was being laid.
“Stand up and eat, you will be needing all the strength you can gather, make sure you eat as much as possible, as much as you can and if I were you, I will eat the food fast because you are having only a few minutes.” She told Luna before facing Rebecca again, while Luna stood from the bed to eat.
“You have always waited for the time you will be able to get rid of Luna, isn’t it? You have always hated her and congratulations, the time is today, like a few minutes from now. Get ready, because after today, you won’t have the opportunity anymore.” Madam Sandra told Rebecca then pulled her out of the room.
“I don’t understand you Sandra, what are you trying to say?” Rebecca asked clueless.
“I know the alpha and luna could have heard about the current situation from Amelia by now, I know everything Rebecca and then, Luna will suffer and probably be gotten rid of, just the way you want it.” Madam Sandra
Rebecca broke into a huge smile, “Really? She will be killed?” She asked smiling, her eyes glowing, making her happiness glaring.
“That is for the alpha to decide, I don’t know that one but somehow, I don’t see her story ending.” Madam Sandra said, shaking her head pitifully. She haven’t seen someone whose life is so complicated like Luna in all her five hundred years of living.
“I wish she gets killed.” Rebecca wished silently.
“Mother!” They both heard Amelia calling, they turned to her direction.
“Hey Amelia, how did it go?” Rebecca asked her.
“It went well mother, the alpha was angry and I heard him calling for an urgent meeting.” Amelia said hugging Rebecca, “She will leave mother, and Carl will not have any reason but to marry me.”
“You are right, Carl will not have any choice but to marry you. I do know that you wanted to spoil my name in the sight of the alpha, I know everything you did out there and I must say, you really did great and oh! Don’t feel relaxed, who knows, you might be the next after Luna.” Madam Sandra walked away, living the mother and daughter to their thoughts.
