206 The Beginning of the Plan
[Emily’s P.O.V.]
When I stood next to Patrick as he announced Alpha’s decision to everyone, I saw many Omegas looking very surprised, some were even angry. But what did this have to do with me? They were just jealous. Once Edward hosted the Luna ceremony, I would no longer be associated with these lowly Omegas.
Over the past two days, I had begun to taste the benefits of being Luna. When I walked among the pack, everyone bowed their heads to me in respect. It didn’t matter how much he or she had disliked me.
My once-fake girlfriends Naomi and Jones had also begun to ingratiate themselves with me, but I didn’t want to talk to them. Jacqueline, who had been graced by Rose, had a complex frown on her face as she bowed her head to me once. But that was not what I wanted to see. So, I berated her and she apologized as she bowed down to me for her rudeness.
I had started planning everything that I could with my power. But there were also things that were beyond my control, like that d*mn b*tch, Jane.
“Just because Alpha accepts you doesn’t mean I’ll accept you. You’ll always be just a stupid, cheap, obnoxious Omega.”
She was just a f*cking Gamma spouse. I had no idea what she was trying to pull. Not only did she not lower her head like everyone else, but she was also completely disdainful of me.
“I hope you’ll always remember what you said!” I yelled at her, but she just sneered and left. D*mn it, once my Luna ceremony was held, I swear I would beat her up until she knelt and begged me.
I needed Alpha to back me up. Since he chose me, he must have been disappointed in the mistress. I wondered what the woman did to Alpha. But for two days, I hadn’t been able to meet Edward. He seemed to be avoiding me although Patrick told me it was only because he had a lot on his plate.
I touched the green bracelet that I wore on my right hand. It was beautiful and matched my temperament perfectly. It also made me look even nobler. I wore it all the time, even when I slept because it was a gift from Alpha. It was now a symbol of my identity.
I decided to be an obedient companion for the time being. My Luna ceremony was set in stone so what were a few more days?
[Edward’s P.O.V.]
By morning, I had already left the mountains. I had gone to inspect the training of the elite warriors of the pack, which had been kept a highly-guarded secret. It was the same for every pack that was preparing to participate in the capture of Nicholas.
On the way back, I dialed Patrick’s number. “Where is that b*tch now?”
He clearly knew where the b*tch was. This was all thanks to the small gift I had given her. The emerald lights were specially fitted with precise GPS signal transmitters. I’d paid a fortune to have it custom-made, so it had to work.
“Well, she’s walking down the art corridor on the first floor of the castle. Looks like she’s looking for you again,” said my Beta.
“Keep an eye on her.”
“It’s not a long-term solution, Brother. You can’t keep avoiding her. You’ve already admitted she’s your Luna.”
“D*mn it, I know. Fine, tell her to come to my office.”
When I arrived at my office, I found that b*tch already sitting on my sofa. Although the weather was cold, she was wearing black stockings, a tight leather skirt, and a pair of low-quality high heels. I felt as if my eyes had been raped by her.
“Alpha, what have you been doing for the past two days? I couldn’t find you anywhere!”
Once I closed the door of my office, she clung to me like a piece of gum, her body pressed against mine. Her coquettish tone made me want to puke.
I immediately distanced myself from her and used an Alpha’s eyes to tell her to stay away from me.
“Listen, Emily, I have to tell you something. I made you Luna not because I love you. I have no love for you at all, but I am very disappointed in my current love life, so I need to let myself move forward again. The pack also needs a formal Luna. Of course, I don’t deny the possibility of me falling in love with you if you can become a good enough Luna.”
She looked at me and her facial expressions told me that she was not too happy. But she knew that she could not be angry at me so her face immediately softened into a smile.
“I understand you, Alpha. I’m willing to accompany you through this difficult period. I’ll also become an excellent Luna.”
“Really? Can you do that? Give up everything for this pack and dedicate your energy, time, and even your life when your pack’s in danger?”
“Of course, Alpha. This is what a Luna should do.”
“Very good, Emily, I didn’t misjudge you. Now that everyone knows that you’re Luna, you should act like one.”
“I’m already doing that.” She continued to smile sweetly at me, but I only wanted to tear her throat apart.
At this moment, my phone rang. It was my mother.
I hesitated for a moment, then walked to a place far away from that b*tch before picking it up.
“Son! God! Come here quickly! Go to Mona’s room!”
“Mom? What happened?” asked I in a low voice.
“Mona is unconscious and having a seizure! I can’t wake her up at all!”
