Make me want you

Daciana's POV
"Luna, the Alpha needs you at the gala," someone came knocking on my door.
"I'll be right there," I replied.
I was in front of the mirror doing something to my swollen lips and face covered with marks from the slap I had received from Eden. Without him telling me to cover the mark with makeup, I knew I had to. No one has to know of the hell I call a marriage.
When I was done wearing the makeup, I let my hair loose making sure it covered both sides of my cheeks so no one would know what had happened in here.
Taking one last look at myself in the mirror, I made my way out of the room heading back to the gala.
Everyone had taken their seat, it was time for the feast. A smile spread on my lips when I remembered telling them that I had to make sure everything was in place.
I made my way to sit beside Eden's seat, although he wasn't seated yet, I didn't mind it. I sat down and began to serve myself when I heard Eden say from behind me,
"Honey, can you go and serve the Lycan king?"
I didn't respond thinking he was speaking to Nikini. I can't remember the last time he called me sweet names so I didn't seem to think he was speaking to me until he hit the chair I was sitting on. Again he said when I turned to him,
"Can you serve the Lycan king? It will be a great honor for the Luna of the pack to serve the Lycan king"
I knew what they were doing there because Nikini was standing beside him. He wanted Nikini to sit next to him and not me. I turned to the Lycan king to see him speaking with someone beside him. I'm not even sure he cared who served him. Well, to pay my respect to the handsome man, I stood up and made my way to where the Lycan king was sitting, directly opposite my husband.
Nikini was quick to take my position when I stood up, I only shook my head as nothing else seemed to affect me anymore. They've done the worst including beating me up.
While I served the Lycan king, I saw Nikini serving my husband. My blood began to boil. I was so angry and pissed off that I didn't know when I spilled some soup on the man.
"Careful," the man next to him said while he jumped to his feet.
The guests gasped when they saw what happened. My eyes widened as I fell to my knees immediately,
"I am so so sorry, I didn't mean for that to happen!" I confessed as I begged, and both my hands clapped together. Fear didn't let me look up at his eyes.
"How dare you, Daciana. Can't you see?!?" The voice of my husband rang into my ear and I cringed.
"It's okay. It's nothing really serious," I heard another voice. I don't know who owned it but I knew it wasn't my husband.
"Are you sure, King Arnou?" Eden asked and my eyes widened. The lycan king said it was nothing serious? Eden would kill me if I had done this to him.
"My sister can be very clumsy and irresponsible sometimes, my king. Forgive her," I heard my sister's words. My fingers clenched on the ground but I dare not raise my head, still on my knees.
"It will be an injustice to punish her. Not after she had made sure everything was arranged for our comfort. She will not deliberately do this. And what can I say? Having someone else serve the Alpha when the Luna was alive and present didn't seem to sit well with her"
I gulped when I heard the pleasant sound of his voice. He saw me staring at Eden and Nikini
"King Arnou, you know it was because—"
"Stand up," I heard the man say as he helped me up. When his hands touched my arms, I felt electrified as my eyes met his.
He has the most beautiful warm eyes ever. Who said he was cold and without emotions? I could clearly see that he was kind and nice to me.
His eyes moved from mine and landed on my cheek which was slightly showing. I quickly turned my face away, covering my cheeks with my hair as I bowed.
Eden pulled me from behind to stand beside him, I bowed again as I said,
"I'm so sorry, my king,"
"There is nothing to be sorry about," he replied.
Soon, everything was back to normal when someone groaned,
"Oh my goddess! Who prepared this?!? It is too salty!"
Eden's eyes shot to me and I tried to swallow the food that had suddenly hung on my throat.
"Yeah, mine too!" Some other guests began to complain. Murmuring filled the room when Eden yelled, calling for the chief cook.
My hands were shaking already, my heart was pounding in my chest, my eyes had suddenly turned teary,
"Who prepared this meal?" He demanded and she replied immediately,
"The Luna,"
"Daciana!" He yelled angrily. Before I could explain, he began to say,
"What will I do with you, this woman?!? What exactly can you do right in your life other than spread your legs for men?"
The crowd gasped while my eyes widened,
"Wh…what?" I choked but he repeated his words as he made his way towards me. I was sitting at the other end of the table like someone without a partner.
"To cook a simple, proper dish, you can't. How can you prepare a meal as bad as this and expect the guests to manage it? Is this your definition of making sure the guests enjoy themselves? All you know how to do is spread those legs of yours for any man that comes seeking it!"
"Oh, you stop it right there!" I yelled back angry and was not sorry. How can he accuse me of sleeping with other men when he was clearly the one doing so with my own sister in my matrimonial bed?
"How dare you yell back at me?!?" He roared. I was going to apologize immediately I came back to my senses but froze when he said,
"Today, Daciana, since you have grown wings. I reject you right this instant not only as my mate but as my wife and also the Luna of this pack!"
