Claimed By The Dangerous Alpha King: Betrayed Luna Novel by Gorgeous Aliyah

As I stood there, trying to maintain my composure, Aston’s voice cut through the room, dripping with disdain. “Ah, Kira, how lovely of you to join us. I see you’re still getting accustomed to our…refined gatherings.” His words were laced with sarcasm, and the other alpha kings snickered in agreement.

Most of them were more shocked than they were amused. It was shocking almost more than it was satisfying to see the Luna of the man they all hated in their gathering as nothing but a mere s***ve.

Their eyes raked over my body differently, a handful of them looked at me in sheer amusement. Some of them stared at me with judging eyes and even though 1 looked like I literally came out of the gutters, some of them still stared at me lustfully.

It was the lustful stares that bothered me more than the rest. There was no guessing how twisted their minds were and what I wanted the least was another encounter like the one I had with the b*d in*** the garden.

If I had such an encounter with any of the powerful Alphas here it was going to make my life so much more harder than it already was and I definitely didn’t want that for myself. 1 was barely even getting by with the condition that I was in to think of adding more to it for myself.

I couldn’t take my eyes off Dax even as I looked around the room for signs of possible threat. My heart was beating really fast as I looked at him and it felt as though it was going to rip out of my chest. I didn’t expect myself to feel the way that I felt. I mean considering how much I loathed him for the things he did to me. I guess all the punishment that he put me through wasn’t enough to wipe away all the years that I used to love him. I guess feelings didn’t just disappear because you

want them to.

Ididn’t care how long the process was going to be or how draining it would be, I just needed to get my heart under control. I needed to teach the **d thing beating inside my chest that it was not okay to love people that abandoned you for other people and also tried to kill you for said other people’s accusation or punish you for a whole bunch of things that made absolutely no sense

“Get over here.” Aston ordered and my eyes locked on Dax’s, willing for him to say something, anything. Willing for him to get up and protect me the way he’d always used to. I wanted him to come running for me but he just sat still, his gaze at me unwavering

It took everything in me not to run towards him. The memories of what we used to be flooding my head and the memories of what we turned into splitting my head open and slamming in harsh reminder that he hadn’t changed.ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .

If he had, he would have looked for me. He would have ran up to me and given me a hug. He would have tried to save me from Aston, his gaze was blank and slightly deceiving but I couldn’t let myself fall for it. I remembered the way he screamed at me when she told him about the things that I didn’t do without even trying to hear my side of the story. It was his fault that I ended up where I did and it f**g hurt

1 bit my tongue, refusing to give Aston the satisfaction of seeing me squirm even though I was practically fighting really hard to keep the tears at bay. My eyes never left Dax’s, and I got nothing. I got nothing from him, no nod of encouragement, no look of affection. Nothing

Pain was burning in my chest ever so excruciatingly and I felt like running into Dax’s arms and stab him in the f**g chest for all the pain that he caused me,

“Don’t make me repeat myself.” Aston warned and I walked over to him, kneeling as he’d gestured me to do.

For one second there. I thought you’d be s**id and come to me. I would have bashed your face in The words hit me and the person it was coming from hit me even harder. What did he. I don’t… I thought… It was my s***d head and my s**d hear! I imagined it all to appease my aching heart.

How foolish was 1 to think that Dax would still have even the slightest bit of affection for me. Why? Why?! Why would I felt so f**g s***d and I couldn’t even bring myself to raise my head. I just bowed my head, the tears rolling down my cheeks freely.

Mon,

The room’s attention shifted from me for a few minutes, and the alpha kings began discussing their concerns, their voices rising and falling in the heat of debate. After what seemed like forever, it seemed like they were finally done with the serious stuff and they were back to making small talk.

“Fancy new slave you have there.” One of the Alphas gestured at Aston and he laughed proudly.

“I wouldn’t say there was anything fancy about her.” He respondeil looking down at me condescendingly with a smirk dancing around his lips.

The laughter of the alpha kings surrounding me seemed to reverberate off the walls, their mocking chuckles a physical assault on my already fragile dignity. I cowered on the floor, my heart thumping wildly in my chest as I tried to ignore the burning humiliation that flooded through me like a wave.

“So dramatic how pride comes before a fall, isn’t it!” someone remarked and it was all too obvious that they were referring to Dax. His eyes found mine and his glare was furious. He was ashamed to have even been associated with me. He looked at me like I was a past he was desperate to erase. The one person that I had hoped that would make me feel better among the angry wolves was the one that hated the most

The one familiar face that I could spot from a million miles away and would calm me instantly was now one that brought me the greatest unease.

“Is she up for grabs, I would love to know how her but feels when my pal slaps on them. One of the alphas said and I wondered if that was even allowed in this sort of gatherings but then I remembered that they were all wolves and they did and said whatever they liked.

“Tilthink about it. Dax, how would you feel if I let her get f**d right in front of you?”

“She’s no longer mine, I don’t give a shit what you do with her. He murmured but I heard. I wish I hadn’t.

“She still has your seed in her though, how about I let thirty guards take turns f**g it right out of her.” Aston said and they all laughed. His words mortified not to talk of the thought of it actually happening. I wrapped my hand around my baby feeling worried for the kind of life it has to live growing inside of me.

I looked up to see Dax throwing daggers at me with his eyes. I shot him a scathing glare, my hands clenched into tight fists at my sides. I felt like pouncing on him and beating him until there was nothing left of his sorry a**. How dare he glare at me when he should be on his knees apologizing for the things he put me through.

The Alphas around the table laughed and Dax was completely mute.

“How

ware you even an Alpha if you can’t even protect your mate One of them mocked and I could see the vein at the side of Dax’s head throbbing like it was about to pop.

“That is not what w

we’re here to discuss.” Dax

growled in a low tone, too embarrassed to speak up.

Aston’s laughter was vicious, his eyes gleaming with malicious delight as he responded, “Oh, I wanted to ensure that you made quite the impression on our dear friend, Dax. Not sorry it had to be here.”

“And what an impression you’ve made,” Dax said through gritted teeth.

My face burned with humiliation, my heart constricting with a mixture of anger and fear.

After what seemed like three hours of continued mockery, they finally returned to the meeting and I found myself weeping. the entirety time. My life was literally in shambles. I couldn’t even protect the baby that was growing inside of me and it’s s**d father looked at me like I was trash.

It was so hard to believe that I fell in love with a man like Dax. I wondered how it happened and how deep I fell for me to be so hurt The tears flowed freely, uncontrollabl

[wept.

As the meeting came to an end, my eyes locked on Dax again and it was like a knife through my heart.
