Chapter 17: A New Turn

Book:The Cursed Lycan's Rejected Luna Published:2024-11-1

Kate’s POV
I lie down on my bed as I thought about my life,
I thought of what my decision could be,
I have been given a third chance to live and I must not misuse it.
I tossed from left to right, thinking of my next step,
Then I sat up,
Took the Luna Amora’s printed journal, then opened to where I had stopped earlier.
Then I read…
“… While on the quest to seek revenge for the death of my parents and the cruelty I had suffered in my past life.
I met the Lycan King Radon of the Thunderfang pack, who is my Fated mate
He claimed me as his mate and I became his Luna
But I didn’t let that sway me from my quest.
I told my Alpha about the cruelty I had suffered and my plans to take back my Pack.
“King Radon supported me, as we both fight side by side to seek justice for the death of my parents and my pack members…”
I paused my reading,
I remembered what Madam Elena had instructed me to do
I started recounting on my past life,
Starting with my first life,
I remembered how Kayden chose Celine over me,
And then the torture I had suffered at Dimitri cell.
I remembered he had said he won’t let a weak mate soil his Pack’s bloodline.
And then how I had also challenged him to earn the right of being a worthy Alpha, if he wants me to be his mate, rather than torturing me
Then he didn’t show up at my cell again.
If not for that sly b.. ch who had come to my cell to slit my throat.
Maybe he won’t have torture me again
As I also remember she had said Dimitri couldn’t get over me.
Then I recounted on my second life, how Kayden had betrayed me before he killed me
I remembered how I had encountered Dimitri in the forest while running away, and how I had found out he is my second chance mate.
Dimitri had also sensed me that night, did he sense me as his mate or just sensing my presence as a wolf who had intrude on his land.
I thought.
I was deep in my thought when I heard a knock on my door,
I opened the door and it was one of the park servant.
The Alpha request for you in his office, she said and I left.
I closed the door behind me and went straight to my Father’s Office.
There, I met my Stepmom, Celine and Kayden standing next to my father.
My Father cleared his throat and started talking.
You will be getting married to Alpha Dimitri the Lycan King of Bloodmoon Pack.
Okay sir, I said immediately without allowing him to explain any further.
They all looked surprised but I don’t care, about their thoughts.
***
It’s 6am in the morning and I am awake beforey Alarm rang.
As I was about standing up from my bed, I heard the bang.
I get dressed in my chore dress and head out of my room.
Good morning, I greeted Talia who we are both working on cleaning of the Kitchen today also.
We divided the chores into two and I hurriedly went on to do my part.
Immediately I finish with my chore, I head straight back to my room.
I have decided I will avoid any encounter with either Celine and her Mother till I leave this pack.
Both of them and their minions have made this pack a hell for me.
And staying here isn’t an option for me.
I opened the door to my room.
And speaking of the Devil, my step mother is already waiting for me in my room.
Thank God I had kept all those books under my mattress, I thought to myself.
I entered and bow my head to greet her.
Hey you silly Omega, she said as she pace up and down my room, ignoring my greeting.
Ensure you behave yourself tomorrow during the mating ceremony.
This Alliance signing must be successful, she added.
She pushed me out of my way as she dashed out of my room and banged the door behind her.
Immediately she stepped out, I rolled my eye as I am used to being treated like a trash.
I opened my small bag where I keep my clothes.
They are all old clothes.
I thought to myself what I can do,
I had to look like a princess tomorrow,
and not a mere slave even though, I am being treated as one in my Father’s Pack.
I need a new dress, I thought to myself.
Should I ask my Father for a new dress,
The last time I had gotten a new dress from him,
Was my Eighteen years old birthday.
He had thought my wolf will be a strong one.
But I had turn out to be a mere disappoint
When I only transformed into a weak wolf,
Which only lasted for a few seconds before I turned back into my human form.
I had faced so much embarrassment that day as I became a laughing stock in the pack.
A narrative which is about to change,
Thanks to the Moon goddess who has given me this chances
and also for allowing me meet Madam Elena.
I pray to the Moon goddess that my Father give me a listen ears, as I’m about going to his office.
I put on the dress he had got me for my Eighteen birthday, seven years ago.
I still fit as I haven’t add any weight, in fact I had lost weight.
I head out straight to my father’s office which is located at the second floor of the pack house.
I prayed one more time, that he is alone.
As I reach his office door, I held the handle
I stood there as my heart pounds so loud against my chest wall as if it’s about to fall out of it’s place.
I opened the door and peep in to check if he is alone.
Oh yes, he is alone
I felt a little bit of relief, even though I am scared.
I stepped in and closed the door behind me.
There he is, the almighty Alpha Damien Stiles, who dispises his own daughter so much,
That he wants to trade her off to a known monster that every Wolf fears
And not caring what he does with her.
He sense me entering but didn’t lift his face up from what he was doing.
What the hell are you doing here.
I have a request Father, I said as I fell to my knees.
I am no father of yours, you weak half breed,
who has done nothing but to soil my Bloodline.
A layer of tears form in my eyes.
What request, he asked.
I fight back my tears.
This is the best of my outfit, and you wouldn’t want me to wear this tomorrow on my mating ceremony as it doesn’t speak well of you, I said with my voice shaking.
And you wouldn’t want Alpha Dimitri feel you are giving him a pack maid in place of your daughter to seal the Pack Alliance Agreement, I added.
He looked at me with disdain in his eyes.
And remain silent,
And I would also be needing some new dresses, I will be wearing after the mating ceremony as all my clothes are now tight and not fit to be wore by a Luna.
I will have them brought to your room, he finally said.
Please don’t let the Luna and My Sister find out about it,
As they might take them away from me, I said
I stood up and rushed out of his office as I got no response from him again.
As I closed the door behind me, I felt a huge relief in my heart and
A bit of excitement as I will be getting a new clothes.
I head for the Pack’s Library to update Madam Elena
About my decision and next step.
As I entered the Library,
I looked to my right and walk to where the huge painting of Luna Amora is,
I bow down my head,
“Thank you for putting down your journey.”
“It will be a great guidance for me on my journey to freedom and avenging myself.”
I said and raise my head.
I walked deep into the library as I search for Madam Elena,
And then I found her dusting a shelf which I joined in.
“I will go ahead with the mate bonding with the Lycan King Dimitri, I said.”
Are you sure, she asked.
Yes I am, I replied.
Since I had found out I am not a weak wolf.
My wolf only grew weak due to the cruelty my Step Mom had subjected me to.
And with personal training and treatment,
I believe I can regain my strength and transformation ability.
And all this can only be possible, if I am not in this pack, I said.
That’s smart of you, she replied.
Take this, she handed me the chain she had pulled off my neck yesterday.
I stretched my hand and collected it,
Keep it, it will serve as part of your proof when you are ready to fight back.
I put it inside my pocket and we continued with the dusting.
I have a little problem, I broke the silence.
I don’t know how to ensure, Alpha Dimitri treat me with respect
Even though I had figure out how to stay out of trouble that could land me in his dungeon.
And also, how to stay ahead of the b.. ch that had slit my throat in my previous life.
“Don’t appear weak, she said.”
Keep your head up high.
And make friend with a strong female wolf in the pack and some people in his inner circle.
Follow me, she added.
We walked down to the Pack Garden.
As we reached the Garden she led me through a path and she opened another door I never thought was there since I have been coming to the Garden.
As we entered, she closed the door
I was so surprised to see different varieties of flowers and herbs.
Wow, I never thought there is a hidden garden in our pack, I said.
Well now you know.
She plucked three different herbs, in large quantity.
She handed them over to me, take this
This should last you for about a week.
Here is “Dragon’s Breath, it will help boosts your magical energy, enhance your wolf strength and agility,” take a little portion tonight.
This one is known as “Shape-shifter’s Sage, it clarifies the mind, and help in focusing your will and expediting your recovery.”
And here is “Moonstone Mint, it calms your mind, body, and spirit, and also reduces stress and help promote rapid recovery.
Early Tomorrow morning take the Shape-shifter’s Sage and the Moonstone Mint together.
In the book, I gave you yesterday there are directions on how to use them.
I collected them and thank her.
We both head back to the Library.
On our back, we heard the battle whistle towards the southern border of the pack, this is to alert the Warriors inside the pack there is a battle going on and more Warriors are needed.
This had not happen in my past life I wonder.
Go back to your room, madam Elena said.
