The Rejected Luna 76
Chapter in
The words hit Lena like a second blow. Her eyes widened in disbelief, and she struggled against the guards' grip. "You can't do this! You don't have the right!" "Silence," Silas growled, his voice low and dangerous, cutting through Lena's cries like a blade.
The room seemed to grow colder with the weight of his words, and even the guards shifted uncomfortably.
He took a step closer to Lena, his tall frame looming over her as she shrank back slightly, clutching her injured arm.
His dark eyes burned with anger as he stared down at her.
"You dared to attack someone under my protection," he said, his voice steady but filled with fury.
"Do you realize what you've done? This isn't something I can forgive. You've crossed a line, and now you'll face the consequences.
You brought this upon yourself, Lena."
Lena's defiance wavered, but she wasn't done yet.
She glared at Silas, her breathing
ragged as she struggled to find words.
Then her gaze shifted to me, and a twisted smile spread across her blood-streaked face.
"You think you've won, Rowena?" Lena hissed, her voice filled with anger and spite.
Her eyes burned with hatred as she glared at me, her lips curling into a bitter sneer.
"You can't fool me. I know exactly who you are.
I know your secret," she continued, her tone dripping with malice. "You thought you could hide it,
but I've figured it all out.novelbin
And I won't stay quiet about it. I'll tell everyone the truth about you. I'll expose everything you've done, every lie you've told.
I'll, " She paused, her voice trembling with rage, as if her hatred alone could destroy me.

Before Lena could finish her sentence, Silas lifted his hand sharply, a clear signal to the guards They immediately stepped forward and yanked Lena backward, their grip firm and unrelenting She stumbled, nearly losing her balance, her angry words cut off as she struggled against them The force of their pull left her breathless, silencing her completely.
"Enough," Silas snapped, his voice cold and commanding
His eyes narrowed as he glared at her, his patience clearly gone.
"You won't be telling anyone anything," he said, each word sharp and final
"You've already lost your freedom, Lena. And now you'll lose your voice too.
You won't have the chance to spread any more lies or cause any more chaos." His tone was ice-cold, and it was clear he meant every word.
As the guards began to drag her toward the door, Lena struggled with all her strength, twisting and thrashing violently in their grip.
Her movements were wild and desperate, but the guards held her tightly, refusing to let her go.
Her screams filled the air, echoing loudly down the hallway, sharp and full of rage.
"You'll regret this, Silas!" she shouted, her voice hoarse but still defiant.
"You think you're in control, but you'll see! Mark my words! She's Rowena! I know it! She's come back to take her revenge, and you're too blind to see the truth! You'll regret this, every single bit of it!" Her cries grew fainter as the guards dragged her farther away, but her words lingered in the air like a bitter reminder of the chaos she had caused.
The door slammed shut behind them, and the room was finally silent.
I stared at the bloodstained floor, my heart racing.
My chest still ached from the attack, but it wasn't just the pain that left me shaken. It was the way Silas had handled the situation, so cold, so ruthless.
He turned to me, his expression softening as he approached. "Are you alright?" he asked, his voice quieter now.

Inodded hesitantly, though my body felt weak and my mind was clouded with confusion. "I'm fine," I whispered, though it was far from the truth.
Silas sat down beside me, his usually confident posture now stiff and uncertain.
He hesitated for a moment, his eyes flickering with something I couldn't quite place.
"Silas," I said, breaking the silence. "What is it? Just say it."
He sighed heavily, running a hand through his dark hair.
"Lena showed me something," he admitted. "Before all of this... she showed me a picture."
I stiffened, my mind racing. "A picture of what?"
Silas hesitated again, his gaze locking with mine. "Of you and Branwen. Hugging."
The air seemed to leave the room, and my heart skipped a beat. "And?" I asked, trying to keep my voice steady.
"She said..." Silas paused, choosing his words carefully. "She said that you and Branwen are having an affair. That you've been... unfaithful to me."
"I clenched my fists, anger and fear bubbling inside me. "And you believed her?"
"No," Silas said quickly, shaking his head. "I didn't believe her. But I had to ask."
"You had to ask?" I repeated, my voice sharper than I intended. "Do you really think I'd do that to you, Silas? After everything we've been through?" Silas reached out, placing a hand on mine. "I don't think that. But Lena's words... they planted doubt. I needed to hear the truth from you."
I pulled my hand away, my chest tightening. "You've always been suspicious of me, haven't you? You've always doubted me."
"That's not true," Silas insisted. "But..."
"But what?" I pressed, my voice rising.
Silas looked down, his jaw tightening. "Your wolf," he said finally.
"It's the same as Rowena's. Snow white. I've never seen another wolf like hers, and yet... yours is identical. How do you explain that?" 99.3%
I froze, my mind scrambling for an answer.
I had known this moment would come eventually, but I wasn't prepared for it now, not after everything that had just happened.
