Claiming His Divorced Luna

Chapter 2

Lena’s POV

My mouth was agape as I stared at my wet body. Alice emptied the cup of water I brought for her on me. Is that the reason she sent for me? I gulped and stepped backwards, I dared not leave the room, or that might worsen the issue. All I did was pull out the little towel I had in my pocket and then began drying my wet clothes.

She stood from her bed and came closer to me, “Your day as my servant in this mansion began yesterday, tell me what gave you the guts to leave the palace without my consent only to return this morning?” her voice thundered.

I didn't say a word. What should I tell her? That I spent my night in the resort with a man that I can't tell what he looks like? That I drank myself to a stupor and had a one-night stand with a stranger? I can't tell her that—no one will dare know about it. That was my first time leaving this mansion since the day my parents sold me to Alpha Damien, and he made me sign a contract to be his Luna for just three months.

“What for? Don't I have the right to leave this place? I am no longer under a contract that kept me hostage for three months, so I had to go and feel the fresh breeze out there….” I retorted, tears struggling in my eyes. She walked closer to me and held my ears. She squeezed them so that I couldn't even scream due to the pain, and all I did was push her backwards.

I blame myself for coming into this world at first, only to suffer this way. First, it was my parents. Second, it was Alpha Damien, and now it's his Luna. What on earth will I do to please people? I did all I could to be a good child to my parents, but they ended us selling me to Alpha Damien. I tried as much as I could to make Alpha love me, but his hatred for me increased.

Now here is Alice, I dare not please her, not after she just took my Alpha from me. I know that I'm an Omega, but that can't be the reason I won't be loved by the man I love.

“I hate Damien!” my wolf retorted immediately. Yes! I hate him too, for all the maltreatment I got from him, I hate him from the depth of my heart.

I was too emotional to stand before Alice so I made a move to leave the room, but she drew me backwards and landed a thunderous slap on my face. Out of anger, I clutched her collar to hit her back only to get my hand on her golden chain and that was the end of it.

Her eyes grew wide, “Did you just tear my golden chain?”

Goosebumps fell on my skin. What have I done to myself? I would have just stood and watched her slap the hell out of me.

“Do you know how much this cost? Even your salary as a servant here for a year can't buy it…” She bit her lower lip and picked it up from the ground. “You must replace this for me or you'll rust in jail, you have to get exactly this even if it will cost you your life—” she screeched.

My heart was beating faster. Where on earth will I get the money to replace such an expensive chain? I shook my head, “I'm sorry, I didn't do that intentionally…”

She smirked, “Huh! But you tried clutching my collar intentionally right? You had the guts to fight your mistress and you're telling me that it wasn't intentional huh?” she clapped her hands at my face. “Alpha Damien got me this, and you know what I'm trying to say.”

Bitterness filled my heart that moment even though I became more scared. Damien didn't even get underwear for me until our contract ended, rather he would hire clothes and makeup artists to dress me up if I'll be going out with him, and that was just it. Once we return, everything will be taken from me—but he already got a woman that he hasn't crowned his Luna yet an expensive golden chain, and he won't let this slide if he finds out.

“Look, I know that you're so jealous that he got me this and that's why you tore it, but you better replace it before he gets to know or he will make your life a living hell—” Alice snapped at me.

I swallowed my saliva. Where on earth am I going to get the money to buy such a chain? “You can tell him and I'll face the punishment because I don't have the money to buy a new one…'' I told her and she burst into laughter. I didn't know what to do at that moment, leave the room or keep staying? I'm already used to Damien's hostile life towards me, so I'm ready for the worst.

“Asshole! I am your mistress, and you dare not fight me no matter what. Do you realize that I'll be the Luna soon and that you'll keep being the servant?'' She mocked me. I so much love that part about women. Mocking is our way of life. “Stop boasting. You're not even sure if he will bring in another woman here soon—so just pray to the moon goddess that he crowns you..'' I snapped back at her.

She grimaced and punched my nose angrily. “How dare you speak to me that way?”

I noticed that I was bleeding, so I lifted my head to get over it.

“Anyone out there?” she screamed, and the door burst open. With my side eyes, I saw two guards standing at the door. “Take her out and throw her into the torture room, I'll torture you myself before you replace this chain. Bastard!” she thundered.

One of the guards pulled out a tissue in his pocket, tore out a little, and blocked my bleeding nostrils, then they took me out of the room.

“Raise your head—” one of them said to me before I was pushed into the dark torture room. It was so scary that I had to shut my eyes as well, but I felt a sharp pain in my head that I almost screamed. It felt like a flashback of my stay in the club, and I could sense that my clothes were almost taken off but I tried as much as I could to resist it even though I was drunk—but the bitter part of it is that I still couldn't capture the face of whoever it was that almost took advantage of me.
