Healing The Ruthless Alpha

Chapter 47

"Luna, your friend from your old pack has come to visit you!" Maribeth grinned from ear to ear as she led my worst enemy towards me. "Sihana -" Felicity pressed her thumbs together as she came closer.

Laura's eyes bore into me. They must hear my heart beat faster as I looked at the girl who had caused me so much pain. The people from Silver Moon kept showing up in my new pack. First Kade, then Avalon, and now Felicity. Why wouldn't these people leave me alone!?

"What are you doing here?" I didn't know why but I wasn't comfortable sitting with her standing in front of me so I pushed out of my seat.

"I arrived two days ago." She smiled at me. The smile was unlike any of the other smiles she had given me in the past. This one didn't look nasty. She looked unsure - weary - as she looked from Laura to Beth.

"What do you want?" Her presence here didn't make sense and it made me nervous.

"I am - I want to become a member of Alpha Blood pack." I felt a chill dance down my spine at the words that dropped from her mouth.

"No," I answered on a whim, a shiver making me cross my arms.

"Let's give them privacy, Beth," Laura stood, taking the other girl with her. I wanted to scream at them not to leave me with this bitch but I held myself back. Eyes fixated on Felicity, I watched the women from the corner of my eyes as they left.

"What do you want, Felicity?" I asked the girl standing before me.

"I - I made some mistakes in the past and I want to apologize for them." She bent her head, letting it hang to the side. Whatever games she had conceived this time, I vowed to myself not to fall for them.

Felicity was an Alpha's daughter. Not just any alpha, but Alpha Warren who was the most deceptive man I knew. She had picked up her father's habit of lying but I was not stupid enough to allow her to deceive me. How did everyone suddenly become sorry for how they treated me all at the same time?

"If you came all the way here to say that then I've heard. There's no need to stay back," I told her.

If the people in Silver Moon thought they could earn my forgiveness by apologizing then they didn't know me. The days when I wanted them to accept me and see me as someone other than a tool were long gone. Now, I was fully committed to erasing them from my memories.

"I - I know you can't just forgive me like that. That's why I said I want to become a member of this pack. Let me serve you to show the sincerity of my repentance. I was a nasty bitch to you. Let me earn your forgiveness."

Before she said those words, I was already suspicious of her but after she said them, I knew for certain that there was something fishy going on. Her words gave me a jolt and caused another chill to travel down my spine.

"Felicity, what changed? Why do you suddenly want me to forgive you?" I asked her. She started to reply but I continued. "I am out of Silver Moon for good. The chances of us bumping into each other in the future are slim so there's no need to ask for my forgiveness or 'work' for it. You can pretend all of the things you did to me never happened and I would pretend the same." She was shaking her head before I even finished speaking. Her eyes widened and watered. The tears looked too fake for me to take her seriously.

"No. No!" She shook her head. "How can I pretend?" She shouted, tears streaking down her face. "How can I pretend I didn't do all those awful things to you? Your wolf friend was killed because of me! I am an awful wretch and you should hate me! You should want me to pay for my sins!"

Ah, Felicity. She was a cunning, pretentious bitch but her words could not fool me. She wanted something from Alpha Blood and she wanted to use me to get it. I could only guess what she wanted.

"Does this have anything to do with Aristo?" She paused for a second before she shook her head but that brief pause was enough to tell me all eded to know.

"No, this is about the two of us," she assured me but I wasn't a fool.

Power attracted girls like Felicity. She had her sights set on Aristo right from when he visited Silver Moon pack. I didn't think she would come all the way here to seduce him but I guess I didn't know her enough.

"Look, I don't really care for you. If you want to stay here to pursue Aristo, then that isn't any of my business. You can stay in Alpha Blood as long as the Alpha grants you his permission." Knowing Cahir, he must have approved her stay here. "Leave me alone."Text property © Nôvel(D)ra/ma.Org.

"But -" She came closer to me and I stepped back on instinct but then rage slammed into my chest and it made me take two steps forward. I wouldn't be intimidated by these people any longer.

"Felicity, you're not on Silver Moon

land anymore. I am the Luna here. If

het

I tell you to leave me alone, you leave me alone!" She nodded as exploded but she still tried to reach out to me. I slapped her hand away and stormed out of the room and up

the stairs to my bedroom,

I collapsed into bed with shaky hands and a pounding heart. Damn Felicity and damn Cahir! Why was she here!? What was Cahir planning by doing all these!?

After that, I stayed in my bedroom

throughout the day. My already bad mood plummeted with each second. During dinner, I heard a knock on my door but pretended to be asleep in reality, didn't want anyone to see my red eyes. I would have to confront Cahir soon and the thought ofit terrified me but I had to. I

couldn't put it off any longer. The things he was doing to me were

getting out of hand!

I didn't need to go looking for him as he came to me.

Around midnight, the door to my room opened and Asena perked up. Without raising my head and even before I sniffed him, I knew no one would barge into my room except Cahir.

"You're awake." I raised my head to see him leaning against my door.

"If it's sex you want, I am not interested," I replied in a snippy tone before I turned my back on him.

"One minute I think I –" He trailed off. Unable to stop myself from checking his expression, I turned again to look at him. "I don't understand you." His brows creased. "What is wrong with you?"

While his question may not have been meant to be offensive, I picked offence with his exasperated tone. He made it sound as if I was the problem, as if all he had done to me was excusable and I was overreacting.

"Cahir, answer one question." I sat up in bed, unable to control my pounding heart. "Who do you see me as?"

"You're mine." The words came on instinct.

His. I was his but he treated me - he made me feel as if he hated me.

"If If I am yours -"

"No ifs." His growl shut me up. "There is no doubt that you're mine, Sihana Asena," he hissed at me, pushing off the wall and stalking towards me. He climbed into the bed with me, pulling me into his arms. "You're mine," he snarled against my skin, his lips a breath away from his mark on my neck.

"Stop." I pushed him off. He resisted for a second before letting me go. "Can you stop treating me like this?" As I spoke, tears started to gather in my eyes again.
