Chapter 14 Doing This for Laila’s Own Good
Holt’s POV:
After leaving Laila’s courtyard, I gathered everyone in the household and told them about my plan to break the mate bond with Laila, asking them to prepare for tomorrow’s Elder Council meeting.
I didn’t mention the banishment. That had just been harsh words spoken in anger. I wouldn’t actually let Laila fall into such a pitiful situation.
However, my older brother, Gareth Enclaw, still disagreed.
“Holt, you’re destroying your own future. Think about it. How many soldiers in the army served under Laila’s father? The only reason you achieved such glory this time was because they supported you. Once you lose their backing, do you really think your position in the military will hold?”
“But she’s using Mom’s health to threaten me. I can’t take it anymore!” I said, clenching my fists.
My mother had already recovered. She nodded vigorously. “Break the mate break it! And not just that. We need to banish her too! Damn her! She should take a single penny with her!”
“Mom!” I frowned. “I don’t want her money!”
I must owed to
“Why not? She nearly killed me. Consider it compensation!” My mother clutched her chest. “Besides, she’s just an Omega. She has no business carrying that much money around. The moment she steps outside, someone will rob her blind. It would be better if we kept it safe for her! Holt, you’ve been out there trying to borrow money. You know how hard it is. We had to sell one of our shops just to scrape together enough for your mating ceremony with Maris!”
“Mom! We can’t do this. Laila needs to remain Holt’s Luna. She…” Gareth said urgently.
“Don’t worry, Gareth. I’ve already thought this through.”
I cut Gareth off. “I simply can’t stand having such a petty, selfish, scheming woman as my Luna anymore. I’ve given it a lot of thought. The Battle of Vagen isn’t over yet. I doubt Prince Vance can fully defeat those wolves from the Ovila Kingdom. They’ll definitely need reinforcements eventually. When that happens, Maris and I can join as backup forces. We won on the Lovanfall Battlefield, and we can win at Vagen too. Reclaiming Vagen would be a legendary achievement.”
