: An Affair Giselleâs POV âLuna, please donât be angry. Itâs bad for our future Alpha. I promise you, what I have is a piece of good news,â The omega who just arrived spoke with a wide, infectious grin spread across her face.
âJust speak!â I snapped at her in annoyance, making her cower down.
After recovering herself, a small, imperceptible smile tugged at the corners of her lips as she leaned in closer, her voice lowering to a conspiratorial murmur.
âApparently, the Nightsong Pack is on the receiving end of a lot of hate right now,â she revealed, a glint of something almost akin to satisfaction flickered in her eyes.
I raised an eyebrow at her. âAnd how is that possible? People were just desperate to meet Alpha Drystan and form an alliance with him last time. How come their heart changed quickly? Are you sure that your sources are correct?â
âLuna!â her eyes widened with hurt when I doubted her. âIt was Alpha Killianâs most trusted source that had told me. I will never give you the news that Iâm unsure of.â
I laughed when I heard her assurances. âWhat a joke? They are soâcalled Alphas, yet they are naive and narrowâminded people,â I laughed heartily once again with my head tilting back. âThis is the biggest joke Iâve ever heard.â
My attendants also laughed and smiled with me.
âThose Alphas had no loyalty. They are so scared of taking risks they just go where the public leads them. They were just desperate to form an alliance with Alpha Drystan, and now they hate him once again. What has happened this time?â I asked her.
âIt turns out that when Alpha Drystan came back from the Shadowfang Pack, he pushed all the Alphas away and insulted them. He announced that he would never form an alliance with anyone except the St. wfang Pack and the Frostbite Pack, with whom he is currently allied,â she answered.
I have already expected this. Alpha Drystan is not a fool like those other stupid Alphas. Itâs normal that he would never repeat the same mistake of accepting them again after they had betrayed him.
âPeople are calling him ungrateful and arrogant just because they have experienced a little power. If it wasnât for the Shadowfang Pack, they would be nothing. Now that the Shadowfang Pack has their back, he is looking down on everyone.â
âThose Alphas are foolish to think that Alpha Drystan would forgive them easily. They are so self- absorbed that they never thought about what Alpha Drystanâs reaction would be,â I explained to them, and they both nodded in agreement.
âYou are truly wise, Luna,â Rhya, the omega who delivered me the news, replied.
âis this the good news that you have for me?â I questioned her. âHow is it good that the Nightsong Pack are receiving lots of hate just because people canât handle the idea of a weak Pack rising in the ranks?
Even if they are hated, it doesnât matter as long as they have the Shadowfang Packâs favour. Everyone would rather be hated by many than be disliked by one âOf course, this isnât just the news I have, Luna,â Rhya lowered her head before me âWhat else is it? Make sure itâs good; youâre wasting my time,â I told her with dissatisfaction.
âLuna, I also heard that Alpha Drystan returned alone to his Pack.â
âWhat?!â I accidentally blurted out loud. I was so surprised that my back leaned forward from my chair.
The omegas instantly lowered their heads at my sudden surprised reaction.
I cleared my throat and leaned back in my chair again. âAstrid stayed behind in the Shadowfang Pack?â
âThatâs true, Luna,â Rhya answered confidently.
I pursed my lips and squinted my eyes as I thought about it deeply. After a long moment of silence, my lips stretched widely when I finally thought of something.
âRhya, I need you to do something for me,â I spoke, the corners of my lips twitching slightly upward.
âAnything, Luna,â she replied with her head lowered in ready obedience.
âI want you to spread another rumour with me. This time, Astrid is having an affair with the Alpha of the Shadowfang Pack,â I chuckled at my words.
Rhya lifted her chin up with a wide look in her eyes, âLuna⦠but will they believe that? Last time we said that she was having an affair with Alpha Drystan, everyone regretted that they believed it after it was unproven. Will they believe a rumour like this again?â
âLuna, think twice; we canât make another mistake again. Iâm afraid if the Alpha of the Shadowfang Pack is included in the rumours, no one would believe it,â my other omega spoke up in support.
I laughed at their cluelessness. âOf course, everyone will. Didnât you say that everyone hates Nightsong Pack right now? They will do everything to bring the Nightsong Pack down, even by believing and spreading this rumour.
Iâm only giving them the way how to bring them down. All they have to do is to believe this rumour, and who knows, maybe the Shadowfang Pack will think that the only way to silence these rumours is by breaking their alliance.â
The omegas stared at each other with amazement in their eyes.
âYou are truly wise, Luna,â they bowed their heads to me and spoke in unison.
I smiled. âThe Shadowfang Pack had made the great mistake of supporting Astrid. Everywhere Astrid goes, she just gives bad luck. First, the Nightsong Pack nearly died because of her, and now sheâs going to ruin Shadowfag Packâs reputation. Letâs just see how the Shadowfang Pack would react to this rumour.â
âI donât think this is just a rumour, Luna. Aside from the affair, I canât think of other reasons why a powerful Pack would help losers like them. Maybe itâs the truth,â the omega answered.
âMaybe it is,â I replied with a smile.
