Rhea's POV

　　If I have ever been confused in life then I might be lying because right now nothing seemed to be making sense to me.

　　I stood in front of my window looking outside the cloud, the bulb casting a dim light on the room. Throughout our journey from Thorn pack back to here has been one silence of a thing. My mind was in chaos that I didn't even know when we arrived.

　　"Mine," Daemon's words replaying back in my mind, he keeps addressing me as his at any slightest opportunity that he gets which is strange, knowing fully well that I am a married woman with a mate.

　　Letting out a huff, I blew off the strand of my hair that was almost covering my eye away from my face. I leaned into my window flame, my gaze fixed on the sky. I wished that I could find answers to my confusion in the windy clouds.

　　I haven't seen Kian since I arrived though I was informed that he went for Luna's coronation to one of the packs that we are allying with, with no other but Lila as his plus two tonight.

　　Neglecting me, his Luna, and his wife at home, sending me out there for the pack affairs but instead, going for merriment with his mistress which is no other but my beta.

　　I didn't want to ponder on that but I have emotions... I am also a living thing and not a statue so I am bound to have feelings.

　　Signing deeply, I stride toward my bed with Daemon's image flashing back to my mind. Everybody knows about his ruthless and manipulative nature but my concern is what is he trying to gain with all this.

　　Lying deeper into my bed, I covered my body with my fluffy duvet when directly staring into the dim light in my room.

　　My life is just like the bulb casting the dimming light. After the tragedy that befalls me and our pack, things haven't been brighter in my life.

　　It has been filled with darkness, sadness, and sorrow. Nothing there to cheer me up, a roll of tears slid down my cheeks at the gloomy memories.

　　It was as if we have known each other, there is something between us that is yet for me to understand. Why does my heart feel at peace around him, like he was the actual one for me? My heart throbs especially when he claims me as his.

　　The twinkle that glints in his eyes whenever we exchange a look, the zap of electricity that his every touch does to my body. Not even Kian, my true mate, has made me feel like that.

　　Everything feels right and at the same time wrong, at times I so much wanted to live in the moment but remembering my reputation and who I am, had all my desires crumbled.

　　I hate this! Why is my life filled with mysteries, getting involved with Daemon is never going to end well. That will bring a huge disgrace to me and that of the park as a whole.

　　What could be Kian's reaction if he ever finds out about Daemon's claim? Or I guess he is mistaking me for someone else because this doesn't make sense. Reeling through my thoughts, I flipped and flopped around the bed like a fish pulled out from the water.

　　No matter how I struggle to sleep, my inner body feels restless like something is feeling. I can feel a hole in there that needs to be filled up.

　　Ahhh...! I groaned and tossed away the pillow in my hand against the wall, clutching the duvet tight, and cried out. I am losing it, what does Daemon want from me and why do I feel attracted to him despite already being taken?

　　I screamed again, holding my head and just in time my door was pushed open and I felt someone barged in.

　　"Luna," the voice sounded worried.

　　Raising my head, "Mercy," I dubbed. She looked scared like she just saw a ghost.

　　"What? Why did you barge inside my room without knocking?" I pull on an expressionless mask, ensuring to keep my emotions at bay.

　　"Lu... Lu... Luna," she gulped while stammering, "I heard your scream and rushed in thinking that you might be in pain. Sorry that I forgot to knock," bringing her head down, she apologized in an instant.

　　I know that she was just showing concern, yes... I am in pain, a huge one at that but telling you will only make you hurl me those pitiful ere look that I disgust so much.

　　And besides, I am your Luna, Mercy, I need to be strong. I don't have a wolf and as well won't act weak in front of any of you for that will make me worthless as I already am.

　　"Is Kian back?" I asked, trying to change the topic and as well make her comfortable.

　　"Not yet, my Luna," she replied, earning a nod from me.

　　I smiled at her, hiding the bitterness in my throat, "You have to go get some rest, Mercy,"

　　She nodded and turned to leave, "But..." I suddenly said, causing her to stop at her track.

　　Turning to face me, she mumbled, "Yes, Luna,"

　　"Please once he is back, let me know," She nodded and left the room. The closing of the door reminds me that I am once again all alone inside here again.

　　Smiling bitterly I tilted my head to the other side, with pain held in my eyes I painfully stared at my wedding portrait with Kian hanging on the wall.

　　How long do I have to wait for you to change and find me worthy, Kian? Why so much hatred though at the deepest part of my heart... I wish that one day, just one day you did change and find me capable of answering your wife.
