ALPHA'S INNOCENT LUNA

"You deceitful opportunist. How dare you manipulate my father? If all you wanted was money, you could've just asked. I've provided enough for you to live comfortably without lifting a finger. You could've slept with me once and been set for life," he spat, fueled by alcohol and pent-up anger, oblivious to the pain his words inflicted on her. Tears welled up in her eyes as her dreams shattered into a million pieces. Her supposed love turned cold and distant. "Trevor, your father... insisted, our fates are intertwined. The Moon Goddess has chosen us to be mates," she stammered, her voice trembling like a frightened creature before its predator. "Yeah, how could I forget how you captivated him with your innocence? And then you forced yourself on me, didn't you?" he sneered, his laughter laced with danger. "I didn't manipulate him," she answered softly but firmly. "Shut up! You're a bloody liar. Do you honestly believe you're worthy of being my wife?" he ground out through clenched teeth. "You mean nothing to me. No matter who you are, you're not my true mate. I've honored my promise by accepting the one fate handed me. Now leave, disappear from my sight. Never set foot in my room again, you unclean woman," he yelled, pushing her out forcefully for the final time. In the aftermath, she stood there, her heart numb. Once again, fate had abandoned her. Her life partner's treatment had varied dramatically. Did she deserve such animosity and disdain from her supposed soulmate?
