The Alpha and His Contract Luna (Lauren) novel Chapter 24
Darren.
I stare at the woman who I thought loved me. She looks nothing like her impeccable self. Her hair has not been brushed for days and her skin looked pale and ashy. Even though she had changed clothes they weren’t her usual designer brands. I could tell that she hated that.
After the paternity tests had come out, Sebastian had handed her over to the council for trial. His claims based on her drugging him then taking advantage of him. Also lying about the child she was carrying being his.
Given he was a prominent alpha the council had responded immediately. Taking her off his hands and locking her in their cells as she awaited trial.
“Why Miranda? Tell me why” I ask her, unable to hide the tremble in my voice.
I was allowed to see her only because I was her mate. I couldn’t stop myself from coming to see her. I just wanted. Needed to know why she did this to me. To us. Nobody knew that I came to see her. Otherwise they wouldn’t have approved of this visit.
She shrugs her shoulders. “It’s really nothing personal Darren. Stop taking it to heart”
I look at her as if I’ve never seen her before. Is this the same woman who had approached me a year ago with her claims of love? Telling me that even though she got mated to Sebastian she never got over me? That she always loved me.
How could I have been so blind and stupid? She was so sweet and loving and like the fool I am, I fell for her act. I left Lauren, the perfect mate. Trampled on her love all for her and all she can tell me is that it’s nothing personal?
“How is it nothing personal? You fucking cheated on me with multiple men” I shout at her. Still unable to grasp the truth after a little investigation.
I was losing it. My anger and pain warring against each other. Kai was shattered when we got the results and realized the pup she was carrying wasn’t ours and neither was it Sebastian’s. The realization literally brought us to the ground.
She rolls her eyes and just looks at me unbothered. Like this was nothing of importance to her. Like my pain was insignificant. She was my fucking mate. My fated mate and it’s as if she felt absolutely nothing for us.
“When Sebastian and I separated, he took everything from me. I was left with nothing. I needed someone to cushion my fall from grace. You were the perfect man for the job” she says, staring at her nails as if she hasn’t just crushed my world.
“Perfect man for the job?” I ask stupidly. Unable to believe what I was hearing.
She replies non committedly. “Hmm”
“So you used me?”
“Pretty much” she says with a cold smile
How have I never noticed how cold she was? How cruel and deceitful she was. This version I was seeing of her clashed with the one I knew. The one she pretended to be. I wanted to blame the world, blame Lauren for not fighting harder for me. Blame my family for allowing me to fall for her trap. But in the end the blame is on me.

The readers' comments on the novel: The Alpha and His Contract Luna (Lauren)
Did a teenager write this? I wanted to like it but it’s overly dramatic and the character arc is non-existent....
I don't think the the plot for krystals book is something I would like to dark. I would had thought Krystal and something with Jax would have been a better plot....
Finally I'm fucking done author please research heavy topics extensively before writing about them again. When you don’t you often end up victim blaming alot...
I don't even feel sad about Raya fuck her there’s allot of things that trauma is responsible for and letting the people you love die while you enjoy watching isn’t fucking one of them like the authors writing when it comes to these topics are fucking piss fucking put like the victim blaming the dismissal of valid feelings the excuses for the people who hurt her like eww don’t ever touch on subjects like these until you’ve done the appropriate extensive research on these topics. Then ill read your works that touch on these subjects again. The only reason I’m still here is cause ive already started the story....
I knew the goddamn therapist was a fucking weirdo...
Again the therapist is incorrectly saying what’s going on. If Raya took the empirical trauma it’d be Raya that she’d be talking to. Mayra took the emotional AND physical trauma of what’s going on and both Raya and Mayra are experiencing shared mental effects of that trauma with Raya experiencing the effects on the more angered and blaming side. None of this makes Mayra a terrible companion it actually makes Raya a terrible companion if you want to place blame....
Bruh can’t she just get the moon goddess to like give her a new wolf or remove her from the one she got ? She gone be human either fucking way with the way that bitch of a wolf be acting...
The therapist is fixing weird like she was doing so good till she fucking invalidated Mayra’s feelings towards her baby that was forced upon her by her realist that popped up before she was even done healing like what ? Its normal for victims to feel that way towards a rapper baby and what the therapist should have fucking said was yeah Mayra it’s normal to feel that way you’re still haunted by your rapport and haven’t yet healed and it doesn’t help that your daughter looks like him once healed you could make a decision on whether you want to be in her life as her mother or give her up for adoption it’s all up to you but for now you need to focus on healing before attempting to mother a child who looks like your rapist. In the meantime have your child stay with a trusted person so that you can heal and make the correct decision for yourself as a healed woman. But no the therapist says try loving her and being a mother to your rapists child right now even if you haven’t healed yet. Like huh ? You’re fucking weird and the author is weird for this as well. Maybe before writing about a touchy subject please do more research In terms of how to go about the aftermath of trauma and healing because this invalidated a lot of rape victims who hated their children before healing and coming to love and care for them without blame....
We’ll do e. I enjoyed every moment....
Danke :)...
