s firm until Dominic entered the room.

It was the first time he had set foot in our abode since the incident, and his presence made me sick to my stomach. He stood in the doorway, his expression twisted into a pitiful mockery of guilt.

“Ruby,” he began almost pleading. “I need to talk to you.”

I didn’t answer, didn’t even look at him. My hands clenched on the edge of the dresser as I stared into the mirror, refusing to let him see how his presence affected me.

He stepped closer. “Please, Ruby. I know I’ve made a mistake, but I need you by my side. For the sake of this park-

It worked. I turned to face her, my chest pounding with anger.

“For the sake of the pack?” I echoed, my voice dripping with venom,

“Don’t

it you dare use that as an excuse. You betrayed me, Dominic. You betrayed the pack. And now you dare stand there and begging for me to support you” Oh my, whats about the topic’s support. Dominic! Your affair?”

It’s disgusting to see this man say that and dare to stand in front of me. And he said it was for this pack?

What part of the affair was one of the ways for this pack?

The memories of him with my fake family made my veins throb and the flames of anger gripped demanding vengeance.

His face changed, a mixture of guilt and frustration. “It was a mistake. But you’re the one I want by my side. You are my Luna.”

Dominic sighed. “I didn’t want this to happen either, but the elders wanted a son, Ruby. Please understand. You are still Luna here and my wife. your sister is just a temporary replacement.”

It was fantastic. This guy w

would be a famous actor if he started his career as a celebrity and won various awards for his acting.

I laughed bitterly, the sound a mixture of anger and pain. “Your Luna? Since when! Since you decided to sleep with my sister! Since you defended her while I was left humiliated! You don’t want me, Dominic. You want my image. My comfort”

The guilt in her eyes turn

turned to anger. “Don’t make this harder than it has to be, Ruby”

OH wow. That fast he lost control. I take back my earlier words that he’s the best actor. But I don’t blame him when what I threw at him was a fact. Someone is easily offended when fed facts and men with high egos are prone to heart disease when their egos are kicked by women who are higher than them.

“In case you forgot you’re the one making this difficult,” I made my face as hard as my heart. “You did my violence and you know what? Who healed the wounds on my face! Ob, no need to not know. I’m afraid that I’ll hurt your ego-”

“RUBY“”

His high tone rang through all corner of our room. I just looked at the man I used to love with a straight face and didn’t blink.

“What’s wrong‘ Did it touch some of those inferior veins of yours!”

I let out a short laugh at Domunic’s expression.

“Do you know how hard you’ve made my life! You and Capella, and your pathetic lies? You’ve runed everything, Dominic. Especially with your

Hy hand moved before I could react. The slap echoed in the room, sharp and stinging. Exactly the same as what happened that morning. My head jolted to the side, and for a moment, I was too stunned to speak. My checks stung, but the pain was nothing compared to the betrayal churning in iny chest

Those tears running down my checks represented how fertile the newly grown hatred inside me was. I was not good at hatred but for this, for them. I would be able to do i

For my poor lite daughter, my dear Martha, this pack, and my pride!

You can’t talk to me like that,” he hissed dangerously. “You are still my wife. You are still my Luna. Show

“You’re pathetic” he sneered. “No wonder Canulla was the better choice”
