My Stepsister Returned To Rewrite Fate But I Became Luna (Chloe) novel Chapter 156

Chapter 156

Chloe’s POV

Nicola set down another peeled shrimp on Sandra’s plate. “The shrimp are delicious, my love. You can focus on eating. I will break them for you.”

Sandra ignored him, taking a bite of the shrimp. “So, Chloe, forgive me for steering the topic in this direction but when did you shift for the first time?”

She asked loudly enough that all the tables around us went silent.

I nearly rolled my eyes at her attempt to establish my superiority to the rest of them and to stomp any thoughts they had of disrespecting me.

It was adorable in its own way really.

“Nine months ago,” I replied and took a bite of the steak. “This is amazing. I almost do not want to leave because of the food.”

Nicola opened his mouth but I immediately shut down what I knew he was going to say.

Certainly, he knew that I was the princess and would want to keep me here like the rest of them.

“Almost,” I insisted. “I have a pack to run with my mate.”,

Axel choked on his food, coughing but he could not hide the grin on his face. “I should call Mother to start planning our mating ceremony.”

I raised my fist to punch him and he flinched. My eyes narrowed sharply. “Do not even think about doing anything with poison in your system.”

Axel raised his hands slowly. “You’re the boss.”

I clicked my tongue and turned back to my dinner. “I need to go on a vacation by the end of the year. Somewhere quiet. I have had one hell of a year.”

“Can I come?” Axel chirped in.

I glanced at it from the corner of my eyes. Trouble seemed to follow him wherever he went.

Not to mention, that face of his. I feared that some unsuspecting human overcome by his or her hormones might jump on him.

At the same time, I also did not want to leave him behind. His presence was, in the very least, comforting.

not to mention the sex…

“If I had known earlier that you only wanted me for my body, I would have started stripping around you long ago,” Axel said without looking up.

My cheeks flamed. “W-What is that supposed to mean? I do not want you for your…who the hell do you think you are?!”

The girls snickered around me. “Chloe, you should have seen the way you were undressing him with your eyes,” Sandra teased.

“Like get a room,” Riven added and the sister-in-laws cackled even harder.

I covered my face, feeling my reputation of being cold and stoic going down the drain in the presence of multiple Alphas and Lunas who were listening in on our conversation.

I wore a tight smile on my face as I turned to Axel. “I will be sleeping in my room tonight. And when we get home, you surrender your key to the door between our bedrooms.”

His smile vanished. “Wait a minute, Chloe. I did not mean it like that.”

A hand slammed down on the table in front of us. Sandra was on her feet, her face blazing with anger.

“I am nineteen years old! I will not be having your babies!” she declared and turned into the house.

Before Nicola could take a step in her direction, Riven grabbed his arm. He was about to snarl at her but she spoke.

“Sandra is my sister-in-law and she currently does not like you. And as you might be able to tell, Chloe and I know her better than you do. It is in your best interests that you sit.”

Nicola looked between me and Riven and sat down. “What should I do?”

Riven glanced at the irritation on my face and then chuckled. “Who do you think you are talking to like that?”

His face twisted in rage. “I am the-”

“-man who is begging for my godsister’s attention,” Riven cut in to say. “At this table, you are nothing more than that.”

Because he was the Assassin King, he thought Sandra would throw herself at him. Entitled son of a bitch.

Suddenly, all eyes at the table turned to me, most of them filled with disbelief and amusement.

My brow raised. “What?”

“You said that out loud,” Axel explained. My eyes slightly widened and I wanted to dart from the table before Nicola could get his hands on me.

That was when I looked at his face and realized that he was not upset at all. In fact, he looked sad.
