Rise Of A Shattered Luna (Natalie) by Kave Derry novel Chapter 174

Chapter 174 Breaking Point

Jensen’s POV

My knuckles throbbed, but it was nothing compared to the pressure behind my ribs.

That one–on–one confrontation with Natalie downstairs had already begun to dismantle me.

I realized Natalie had powerful forces backing her.

But even in my darkest imaginings, I had never thought Natalie would drag Sharon into the mud… using such a degrading way to strip us both of our dignity.

I looked at Sharon, who was currently clutching my borrowed jacket around her shoulders, her face a mask of smudged makeup and drug–induced terror.

Was this really the same Natalie?

My chest ached with a pressure so intense I thought my heart might actually crack. I couldn’t tell if it was disappointment, heartache, or both.

She had never seen me like this.

Not once in five years had looked ather with anything other than obligation or a forced, plastic affection.

She flinched, a shiver running through her thin frame before her eyes welled with tears.

“Jensen, I was framed! You have to listen to me! It was her! She set me up! She wants to take you away from me!”

Natalie only smiled faintly.

I bit down hard on my inner cheek, the taste of copper filling my mouth,

I spoke through clenched teeth, my voice a low, dangerous vibration. “What nonsense are you spouting? She was downstairs talking business with me for the last hour. She’s been gone from this floor for a long time, Sharon. You’ve really outdone yourself this time. You’ve brought the Nightfang name into a gutter even I can’t pull it out of

Today, my pride had been ripped away by Natalie and laid bare before the world.

If this was her revenge, I would accept it.

I had wronged her too deeply.

Compared to how I’ve hurt her, this public humiliation was nothing.

It was a mercy.

Sharon… Sharon had once saved me.

But if Natalie wanted to destroy her? Maybe I didn’t have to stop her.

Strangely, the thought brought me a sliver of release.

The burden of “protecting” Sharon felt like it was finally being lifted.

I turned back to Natalie.

I said nothing.

I simply looked at her, my eyes soft, letting her see what she had reduced me to.

If she wanted my life, I would gladly give it to her right here, on this blood–stained carpet, without a single regret.

It was a look of total surrender.

And it was enough to make the man standing beside her bristle with a lethal rage.

Who was he?

He wasn’t just a bodyguard,

He wasn’t just a business partner./

I looked at the way he stood, the way he occupied the space.

I remembered him from the meeting, but seeing him now, in the middle of this carnage, I realized he was the one who had taken Natalie from me.

Natalie looked at the room – at the beggar, at the sobbing Sharon then her gaze settled on me.

“Let’s go,” she said softly.

She slipped her arm through the man’s, leaning on him with a sweetness that felt like a hot iron pressed against my soul.

“Natalie!” I gasped.

“Jensen!” Sharon wailed.

I tried to go after her, to grab her hand one last time, but Sharon wrapped herself around my leg, sobbing miserably.

“Jensen, I swear I was framed! Please believe me! Don’t leave me here!”

“Let go!” I snarled, trying to shake her off.

For the first time in five years, I felt nothing but a pure disgust toward the woman clinging to my knees.

I saw the man’s lips curve upward.

He was pleased.
