Page 21 of True Luna: The Unknown Magic

I understood them completely. My father was insane, and he would go to war with them.

“I am so fucking confused,” Mark mumbled as he sat beside me.

I sighed and looked at my friend.

“But she was supposed to be our Luna,” Mark mumbled. “Who will be our Luna? Do you have a true mate?”

I smiled a little.

“I do,” I said. “The Moon Goddess told me that I do.”

Mark’s eyes widened. He studied my face for a few seconds.

“How hard did they hit you?” he asked, narrowing his eyes and looking at the bruises on my head.

I sighed and rolled my eyes at him.

“Emma and I saw the Moon Goddess after she broke the curse,” I said. “Her magic knocked us out, and we woke up on some field. We got to talk to the Moon Goddess there. She told me that my true mate was waiting for me in my pack.”

Mark’s eyes widened even more.

“Who is she?” he asked.

I shrugged.

Mark wanted to ask me something else, but he was interrupted when the door to my office burst open.

“Where is your Luna?” my father asked.

His eyes widened as he looked me up and down.

“What the fuck happened to you?!” he yelled, closing my office door.

The rage inside of me started to boil.

The man in front of me was guilty of fucking everything. He was the one who filled my head with stories of the White Wolf. He was the one who told me that I was her Goddess-given mate. He was the one who made me believe that she belonged to me.

He killed my mother. He abused me. He completely destroyed our pack.

I was to blame too. I shouldn’t have listened to him.

Looking back, the curse trapped so much anger inside of me. The dark magic was eating my heart and my soul. My father only added fuel to the fire.

I wanted to kill him.

But I couldn’t.

No matter what, he was my father. I wouldn’t be able to live with the fact that I killed my own father.

“You are banished from the pack,” I said as I stood up. “You are no longer a member of the Blood Moon Pack. You will be escorted to the border. You are a rogue now. If I see you near my pack, I will kill you.”

I could feel my father’s link to the pack break.

His eyes widened as he fell to his knees. He gasped for air.

“What did you do?!” he screamed.

“You made my life a living hell,” I said, trying to remain calm. “You poisoned my mind and my soul. You destroyed our pack. You don’t deserve to be a part of it anymore. You don’t deserve to be a part of my life anymore.”
