Longing For My Rejected Luna novel Chapter 133

*****Erika's POV*****

So the person whom I had killed that day on the cliff was Serenity's brother?

I listened carefully, despite freezing as she explained her brother's side of the story and how he came forward, towards me.

Because of that electrocution just now, I felt my senses dull and exhaustion sipping into my bones.

I felt light headed, the gag on my mouth adding to my discomfort, but I could clearly make out some of the words from them.

I watched Serenity acting like the victim and I as the Villainess who killed her innocent brother.

If I hadn't killed her brother, he would have killed me. So everything I did was also out of self defense.

But all these were the least of my worries, my main surprise was that Alex was helping. He was actually confronting Serenity on my behalf.

I watched in silence as their conversations continued.

"Serenity, leave Erika alone. You don't need to punish her, it was all self defense."

"Say that again and I'll drop her down there." Serenity replied with a psychopathic smile.

Alex swallowed and turned in my direction again, but I averted my gaze from his.

"Don't drop it." He said in a soft tone. "What if I propose something?"

I frowned at that question, proposing what?

"Propose what?" She asked.

"Since you've always wanted me, I'll give myself to you but in exchange, you have to let Erika go."

At those words, I felt my heartbeat accelerate and before I could hold myself back, I found myself shaking my head and trying to lash out at Serenity.

How dare Alex make such a proposal?!

Serenity's face broke out into a small smile as she stared between me and Alex.

"I could consider that." She said and I shook my head again.

She raised a questioning brow at me, "why are you shaking your head? Don't tell me you still feel something for him after everything he did to you?"

I blinked, her words bringing me back to reality. Indeed, why was I reacting this way?

After everything he did to me, I am supposed to loathe him so much and wish him evil, but I did nothing of such and even want to safe.

I looked up at Alex and his gaze met mine as well.

We stared at each other for a while, before I averted my gaze to fix it on Serenity.

I gulped, not being able to understand how I feel at the moment.

"I'll take your silence as a no, you don't love him. So I'll have him."

I clenched my fist in anger, envisioning the union of Alex and Serenity. It left a sore taste on my tongue just imagining them together.

I hated Alex for how he treated me, but I just couldn't find myself hating him at this point. He did everything he did in the past because he was manipulated by that bitch. Kat was right that he has changed. He is willing to give himself in exchange for me to be saved.
