Rhea's POV

　　I curled up on the floor, staring at the empty space. The tears on my face have long dried off, why do I always have to go through me? Being locked up in a dungeon by my mate is devastating.

　　But one thing that I have agreed on after spending a night here is never to allow Kian or any of them to see my tears. I think that I don't need to allow them to see me hurt, I noticed that my tears give them satisfaction.

　　Still going through my thoughts I felt a squeak crack from the door, allowing a ray of sunlight into the room, accompanied by a familiar face which I recognized to be Mercy.

　　"Mercy," I called tiredly, she gave me a small pitiful smile.

　　"What are you doing here?" I asked, confused because since Kian left yesterday no one has stepped in here.

　　I was abandoned at the harsh walls of this dungeon, under the terrifying cold.

　　"The Alpha instructed me to take you to your chamber,"

　　Finally... I mumbled, I glanced around the depressing yet horrifying penitentiary. Noticing my inability to stand properly, Mercy rushed toward my side and helped me out.

　　I quietly stood on my feet without saying a word, she helped me out from the dungeon toward my room.

　　I looked like a mess and nothing close to Luna right now, I kept hearing people whispering and murmurings as we walked past them. It is a depressing thing but I have decided never to allow them to see my tears again, so I held my head high and kept ambling to my room.

　　Mercy finally escorted me to my room, plopping on the bed. I groaned in satisfaction at the softness of the fabric against my skin.

　　Rubbing my hands at the sleek and glossy duvet, at this moment I find out how important my bed is. Just two nights at that horrified dungeon and I have missed my bed this much.

　　"Luna, are you alright?" Mercy's concerned words draw me out of my reverie.

　　I nodded not having the strength to talk, I know that gossip will be everywhere not after the look that I was hurled this morning.

　　"Why are you looking at me like that?" I instantly spoke up, not understanding the thoughtful look that she was giving me.

　　"Oh, Luna, so you haven't heard,"

　　"Heard what," I shook my head, truthfully.

　　She sent me a pitiful look, "Well, that's it... The rumor has it that you are ridiculous on the night of the full moon, some even said that you were demented,"

　　I felt a sharp pain in my heart

　　"Sorry I guess that I shouldn't have said that but I just wanted to let you know what has been going around the pack for the past two days to the extent that it was rumored that you nearly hurt the Alpha and that's why he has to keep you in the dungeon for everyone's safety,"

　　I suddenly went mute under her words that I can't even form a word, this is my reputation that Kian is crushing.

　　"I will run you a warm bath and after that, I will fetch you what to eat," she hurried past me, but I stopped her, holding her hand.

　　"Do you think that I am insane?" I stare up at her.

　　She smiled and placed her hand on top of mine, "Well, Luna, I have always admired your diligence and courage. The way you carry the pack affairs on your shoulders, ensuring the betterment of this pack is never an attribute of an insane person. So I don't think but know that you are not insane... You are alright, I believe it is just a rumor and will soon fade away,"

　　"Thank you," at least her sweet words were able to lift some burdens off me.

　　"Is nothing," she smiled again before walking toward the latrine, and in a few minutes she was out. She was about to say something when a knock was heard at the door.

　　"Go have a look," she nodded at me and strode toward the door but before she could turn the doorknob, the door almost smashed at her face.

　　My expression turned sore as I watched Lila strut in, " Hi, Luna, is nice meeting you again after the past two days," Lila smiled, taking a seat in front of me.

　　"Huh, looks like Kian did a nice job keeping behind the bays," taking in my appearance, she laughed.

　　She smiled, glancing at Mercy who instantly dropped her head down.

　　"And what are you still doing here?!" She scoffed, latching out at scared-looking Mercy.

　　"Kiss the door,"

　　"Sorry but not under my watch," I returned the same energy, surprising her.

　　Slowly turning to me, she burst into another laugh, "Well if not that you are mated to Kian, I don't think that you have any damn power. You should just thank the stars that you two were mates,"

　　"Why are you here?" My voice was cold and raw.

　　"Well, I just came to share the good news that your beta already has a wolf when her Luna doesn't have any or even... wait I am not even sure that she will get, not after going insane at the full moon," she slurred and flipped her long hairs sideways.

　　"To hell with you!!" I reprimand, "Now get out of my sight,"

　　"Fine, if you said so but just wanted to let you know how amazing it feels banging your sweet daring husband when you were rotten at the dungeon," my eyelid went weak but remembering my decision never to shed tears for them again, I maintained my frosty expression.

　　I looked at Mercy whose frightened eyes held mine and then went back to Lila.

　　"It is not like a normal thing, but am just pitying any male that will be mated to a whore like you,"

　　Her expression darkened at my word, anger resurfacing around her face. Smiling, I point my tip finger at the door gesturing for her to leave.

　　"Hmmm..." Pausing, she stood up and walked over to me.

　　"Nope, the door, get out," following the direction of my eyes she smiled before returning her gaze to me.

　　"I think that I should allow you to clean up because hmmm... The odor erupting from your body is disgusting, Luna, and besides have you ever thought of your reputation, especially now that the news is everywhere that you are demented? What do you think the other packs will think of allying with you people,"

　　I was taken aback by her words, what have I done? This is my image that Kian is severely smashing against the earthly surface. This is just not fair!

　　I looked up to see the amusing face of Lila, I held myself from smashing her face with a huge tingling slap just because of that demon husband of June, Kian.
