Claimed By The Dangerous Alpha King: Betrayed Luna Novel by Gorgeous Aliyah

My heart shattered into a million pieces as I followed Aston out of the meeting room, each step taking me further away from the possibility of redemption. Dax’s face haunted me, the blankness of his expression a reminder of how he had chosen Laura over me, how he had betrayed my love and trust and everything that we once shared.

The sobs came hard and fast now, my body racked with violent tremors as I tried to control my breathing. I could feel the heat of Aston’s gaze on my back, his voice dripping with satisfaction as lie purred, “You see, my dear?

You’re nothing but a toy, a plaything to be used and discarded. And when Dax sees you next, he won’t even recognize the broken, pitiful creature you’ve become. I’m going to make sure that I use you just the way I like it.”

1 choked on my sobs, nearly falling to my knees as the pain of his words pierced through me like a poisoned arrow. My legs. felt wobbly and walking seemed to become a whole lot harder than it was a few seconds ago.

“P-please.” I whispered, my voice barely a thread of sound. “Please don’t do this.” I begged and I wasn’t even sure what I was begging for. For him not to punish me or for him not show me to Dax after doing so? I just wanted to run off. Go to where no one would recognize me, where I could raise my baby in peace and happiness. Where I would be worry free.

Aston laughed, his cruel chuckle ringing in my ears like the peal of a funeral bell.

“Don’t beg, s**e,” he said, his words a whip that sliced through my already fragile heart. “You’re beyond redemption now. And when I’m done with you, you’ll wish for nothing more than a swift end to your suffering. He threatened but I was already wishing for it. He was not done and I was already wishing for it. What would become of me when he was done! Would I already be dead?

finally

I hung my head, defeated, my body a limp weight of shame and anguish. As I trailed after Aston, the rest of the alpha kings stared at me, their expressions a mix of revulsion, pity, and amusement.

I tried not to focus on their mocking words, I wanted to focus on something else that wouldn’t make my heart hurt as much as it did. My eyes raked over the head of all the Alpha kings and finally landed on Dax, the look he gave me ripped my already broken heart into shreds. He stared at me with disgust, with hate, with pain and I wanted nothing than to just be out of his sight

I followed behind Aston like an obedient little puppy and I wasn’t s**d enough to try to enter the car with him waited for the next one that came for the maids and it occurred to me that I wasn’t the only one waiting. All the members of

again. I the meeting were waiting with too as if I was some sort of entertainment.

They stood rooted to a spot until I stepped into the car and the car zoomed off. The ride was spent with most of the maids glaring hard at me. I didn’t get why until one of them finally spoke up.

“I can’t believe he let you in when we hadn’t even entered before. We’d gone there a million times before and the first time you go, you get to enter?”

Only if they knew what they put me through inside, they wouldn’t be jealous of me entering. I would have traded everything I had to stay inside with them.

“What Does being the first among us to dine with Alpha kings make you look down on us? Do you want to earn yourself a beating” one of them asked and I wondered if they couldn’t see the tears that was flowing freely from my face or they were choosing to ignore it.Contentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDrâ/ma.O(r)g!

“Why aren’t you still answering? Do you think you can ignore up one of them barked at me and her face wasn’t even scary compared to the look Dax shot me. I wish they would just get really mad and throw me out of the car. I would run without looking back. I won’t miss my chance of escaping. Not again.

I wondered if ignoring them would make them angry enough to throw me off ship.

“You s**id b**h. You think you’re all that huh? How was dining with them? Did you eat to your fill?” they asked and I wonder if they were s**d or pretending to be. They all knew at Aston detested me, why did they think that he would let me dine with them?

I fought the urge to yell and let them know how s**id they were

The car finally came to a stop and I realised that we were hack at the mansion. My dream of getting thrown out of the car and escape had been crushed. I had my head down as I stepped out of the car and was peacefully trying to find my way back to my cell before I attracted even more trouble for myself but I had rotten luck because while I was looking down, I bumped into the god of trouble himself

He flicked my forehead with his fingers and it hurt so bad, I knew I had to be expecting a banging headache.

“Good job keeping yourself in check today, though I wouldn’t have minded if you didn’t. It would have only made things even more interesting” I looked up at him in confusion. What did he mean by that?

“What I’m trying to say is that if you had acted out even at the slightest, I would have offered you up to those men at meeting to f**k you right on that table in front of the man you love. I would have watched them part your legs and f***k the baby right out of you.” His words were harsh and raw and there was no trace of deceit in his eyes. He would have really done it. The thought of what could have happened to me made my eyes water again for the umpteenth time. I had cried more times this day than I had in my entire life.

He walked out on me and I found my way back to my cell, the guards locked the door behind me. I crashed to the floor tiredly, the tears racking through my chest violently. My chest burned but it didn’t stop the tears from pouring.

My wake was sudden. It felt like I was hit in the stomach with burning iron. I didn’t even realize when I slept off but the pain woke me right the f**k up.

The pain tore through me like a wildfire, consuming every cell in my body with a scorching agony. I writhed on the floor. my body convulsing as I clutched at my neck, at my chest, at my stomach, trying desperately to quench the flames that burned within me. I couldn’t understand what was going on with me

The pain wasn’t natural, it was all too weird. I looked down at my stomach first, scared for my baby. I realized that the pain was coming from where Dax had marked me as his mate.

The bond between mates was supposed to be unbreakable but I guess it was possible when your first mate returned.

Day was marking another woman now, his touch no longer a blessing, but a curse. And as his fangs sank into Laura’s flesh, the pain etched itself into my soul, each second stretching into an eternity of torment.

I screamed, my voice h***rse and raw with pain, my body quaking with the force of my sobs. I wanted to run, to escape this nightmare, but I knew there was nowhere to go. I was trapped, prisoner of my own sorrows.

The hours dragged on, each passing minute an agony of its own. The pain had dulled to a dull ache, I knew that the wound that would never truly heal but I was glad that the worst part of it was gone and it no longer felt like I was going to die. I wanted to rip out my own heart now that pain was gone.

If living without that thing beating in my chest and controlling all my emotions was an option, then it was definitely one-t wanted to pick. I couldn’t believe that the pain that I had just felt

The pain that jolted me awake from my sleep was nothing compared to the one that I was feeling now thinking about the things that Laura and Dax would be doing. Him branding her meant that he was completely done with me. It meant that he’d marked his territory and made her his. There was no snatching her from him now unless he allowed it.

Like he allowed mine.

Tears started to stream down my face again even though I was trying hard for it not to. I clutched at my chest, my heart aching as I sobbed.

The pain intensified slowly at first and I thought it was just all the tears that I’d been letting out if it but the pain became even worse than the one that woke me up.

i was Dax. He was s still branding her and he was doing it slowly just to torture me. “F**k!”
