Chapter 3


    Reyna Cruz:


    The pack''s training ground was crowded with members, and many of them scrunched their noses in


    disgust when they saw me. I felt unfairly judged.


    The counselors had allowed the Royal Beta to exin the entire situation to them, including my


    ims of receiving text messages. They had then taken my phone to examine it.


    "It''s truly disheartening that a Luna Queen would behave in such a manner. Not only did she


    embarrass herself, but she also made her Alpha King look like aughingstock by sending such text


    messages," my blood ran cold as Mr. Gale, the head of the counselors, used me.


    "I never spoke to anyone. I don''t know how this conversation ended up on my phone," I felt like I


    wasing off as dishonest, but deep in my heart, I knew this was a well-orchestrated scheme


    against me.

    I never suspected Tara was texting that guy for months, especially when she kept asking to borrow


    my phone.


    "There''s a conversation between you and Killian from months ago. How can you deny it so boldly?"


    Mr. Gale adjusted his sses on the bridge of his nose and then shook his head at me, "This is


    precisely why an Omega should never be mated to an Alpha King. She neverprehended the


    importance of our reputation and that title," Mr. Gale went on before taking a deep breath and


    reaching for the papers on the side.


    Hunter hadn''t even nced in my direction during this entire ordeal. I understood that I had deeply


    upset him, and regrettably, all the evidence seemed to be against me. But I still clung to hope that


    he would grant me one opportunity to make amends.


    "Hunter! Please, just look at me," I pleaded, but Mr. Gale''s secretary walked over to me and


    mmed the divorce papers and the pack expulsion notice in front of me. I furrowed my brow,


    feeling a surge of fear, and desperately wished for Hunter toe to my rescue once more, just as


    he had in the past.


    "Sign the papers and release the Alpha King from this torment. Such a formidable werewolf


    deserves someone superior," Ferocia remarked.


    "But I''m innocent," I protested, and as I watched them all re at me, my throat tightened with


    emotion. Instead of signing, I began to vomit on the papers.


    "Oh my! You''re such a mess," Ferocia eximed, stepping back hastily, while the pack members


    covered their mouths in shock.


    "I''m so sorry," I couldn''t even finish apologizing because my head started to spin. I don''t even know


    who came to support my body because I''m certain I didn''tnd on the ground.


    I had no clue what had happened, but I had been feeling unwell for a few days, and this stress only


    added to my declining health. I passed out and woke up after several hours in one of the maid''s


    rooms. Immediately upon waking up, I felt the urge to inquire about what had transpired.


    There was no one in the room, no caretaker. From being a Luna Queen to nobody, I seemed to


    have taken that journey in a matter of hours.


    "Why did Tara lie to me?" I still couldn''t believe she had deceived me. But why would she do such a


    thing? I had never wronged her in any way.


    As I got out of bed, the door opened, and Mr. Gale entered the room with a doctor and Hunter. My


    heart seemed to have revived at the sight of Hunter, but he didn''t seem to share the same


    sentiment. He looked devastated upon seeing me.


    "Hunter!" I whispered and rushed towards him, but a hand gesture from him brought me to a


    sudden halt.


    "Don''t even try toe any closer, you filth," he yelled, and my jaw dropped in shock.


    I didn''t understand why he would say such hurtful things to me, but he appeared very confident.


    "I loved you so much. I cared for you, and this is how you repay me?" he continued, his eyes turning


    red with his wolf''s anger.


    "You got pregnant by that man, while every night, you told me I was wrong for not nning a baby


    with you," he shouted, causing my heart to skip a beat. It was like being struck by lightning.


    "I''m pregnant?" I whispered, initially overlooking the gravity of the situation and smiling at the news,


    but then I refocused on what he had said.


    "Wait! No! I didn''t get myself pregnant by anyone but you," I shook my head vigorously as I realized


    what he was insinuating.


    "I''m certain this isn''t my child. You were involved with that man who ran away after getting caught,


    and now you''re attempting to pin this child on me," Hunter hissed, his tone harsh, and his breathing


    erratic.


    "No! That''s not true. I''ve never been with anyone but you," tears welled up in my eyes as I longed to


    reach for his hand. I had been waiting for this moment for months, and now that I was finally


    pregnant, he wasn''t acknowledging his own child?


    "Even after I saw you with that man?" he yelled in my face, gripping my arms and shaking me.


    "Hunter! It was a setup. You have to believe me, please!" I pleaded through my tears, locking my


    gaze with his.


    "Now that she''s pregnant and unwilling to admit that the baby might belong to someone else, I


    suppose we''ll have to wait at least four months for the DNA test to determine her fate," Ferocia


    exined, discussing the procedure for testing a werewolf child''s DNA after four months.


    "She''s just stalling. I''m absolutely certain I didn''t sleep with her," Hunter countered, leaving me in


    shock, my jaw dropping.


    "What are you saying? We were together that night," I uttered, feeling sad and heartbroken.


    "No, we weren''t. You haven''t even been intimate with me for months," he argued, seemingly


    unaware of the day we both celebrated, drank a lot, and ended up being together. However, I had to


    leave the bed before him because Tara had asked me to stay with her.


    "Well, I suppose we''ll have to discover the truth in a few months," I looked him confidently in the


    eyes and made a bold statement, knowing that in a few months, he would regret denying being the


    father of our child.


    "Sure! I''d love to see you leave once it''s proven that the baby is not mine," Hunter said, clearly


    convinced that I had been unfaithful.


    He stepped back, allowing the elder to speak with me.


    "Since you''re insisting on taking this DNA test, your trial will be postponed until then. You can stay in


    the servant quarters, but you won''t be allowed to perform the duties of the Luna Queen as you did


    before," Mr. Gale dered before leaving the room with Hunter.


    I felt deeply hurt and betrayed. Hunter appeared to be apletely different person, and I couldn''t


    believe he was denying our intimate session.


    I remained in the room, my gaze fixed on the empty walls, reying the hatred I had seen in his


    eyes. I didn''t want my child to experience the same pain as me. I wanted my baby to grow up in a


    loving family and pack.


    "It won''t be possible if I stay in here and wait for four months to pass. I must talk to Hunter alone," I


    decided, getting up from the bed as I changed my mind and decided to confront him and convince


    him of my loyalty.
