Chapter 141: Smooth Return

[Edward’s P.O.V.]

Even though Annabel had followed Emily’s orders to bring me to another state after rescuing me, it wasn’t that far from the pack. But I couldn’t believe the lengths Emily would go to become the Luna of our pack. Her viciousness was beyond my expectations.

When I learned from Annabel that she had made a deal with Alex of New Moon Pack – which was how she got in touch with Annabel – I knew that things weren’t as simple as they seemed.

Now, I was on my way back to Sunset Pack with Emily. She was driving while I sat in the back of the car so that when I passed through the gate, I could simply curl up in the backseat so that the guards wouldn’t be able to see me. This was all Emily’s idea, of course.

Once we passed through the gates at the border, I was finally back in my territory. As we made our way to the castle’s main entrance, Emily decided to ‘remind’ me what each of the ranked members looked like. I pretended to memorize them even though I obviously already knew them.

“Emily, I can’t remember where my room is.”

I said to her as we parked in the garage.

She happily led me into the castle, confidently walking past the guards as if she already was the Luna of the pack.

I saw the guards looking at us strangely, especially since I was being accompanied so intimately by Emily.

I let her hold my arm as we walked into the elevator, and then to my room, still pretending to be ignorant.

Everything in my room looked the same, except for Rose. All traces of her were gone.

“I must have lived quite well here,” said I to Emily, trying to hold back my anger.

“Of course, you’re the Alpha of the largest pack in America.” She smiled coquettishly and put her arms around my neck. She wanted to stand on her tiptoes to kiss me, but I pushed her away.

“I’m tired. I need to rest.”

“Alpha, I know you’ve been repressed for too long. But everything is back to normal now. Relax, baby.”

She leaned closer again but I simply pressed my palm against her head to keep her away from me.

“I said I’m tired! Get out.”

“Edward! You can’t treat your Luna like this!” She was getting frustrated.

“You’re just my fiancée. Don’t worry, I haven’t forgotten about you. Just get out. I want to rest.”

“Why won’t you have sex with me even after so long?!”

“I told you, we’ll have the best sex in this bed after your Luna ceremony. Maybe I’ve had some d*mn one-night stands in the past that I can’t remember, but I don’t want my Luna to be treated like those b*tches who seduced me.”

I saw the look on her face as if she had eaten shit. On the surface, I had spoken quite innocently but I was basically mocking her – up until now, she had always been my one-night stand. She would always be that but she didn’t know it yet.

“Okay, I’ll see you tomorrow.”

Even though she looked like she had eaten shit, she had to say those words. Once I was sure that she was out of my room, I took out my phone to contact Patrick.

‘Brother, come to my room.’

I felt like I had only been sitting on the couch for ten seconds before someone knocked on my door. It was Patrick, followed by Jane, Ad, and my parents.

It was hard to describe what it felt like to see them again after a life-and-death experience. Everyone I cared about was there, except for Rose, which made me feel unbearably sad.

I gave each of them a hug but I could tell that they were a little stiff. Then I immediately started to get them to ask me questions to prove that I was who I was. My brother even asked me my age and who I had broken up with. I had to do my best not to yell at him.

They asked me one question after another, questions about my childhood, my adolescence, and my youth. I saw my mother’s eyes turn red – she had grown older while I was away from the pack.

Finally, I turned into my wolf Champion. He circled around them, growling to say how much he had missed them. Every werewolf’s wolf was unique. So when I turned into Champion, my mother could no longer hold back her tears.

I told them what I had been through and they told me what had happened to the pack. When I heard what Rose had been through, how humiliated she was, and how she left the pack while pregnant, I couldn’t help but turn into my wolf again. I just wanted to rush out and tear that b*tch apart, but my father and Patrick stopped me.

“Alpha, Luna has something for you. Thank God I didn’t give it to the man in the dungeon.”
