<h4>Chapter 198: Infighting</h4>
[Emily’s P.O.V.]
I didn’t know how I had managed to walk home, but I was still shaking with anger as I stood in my living room.
I forced myself to calm down as quickly as I could. But nothing I did helped. Everything that had happened earlier kept reying like a broken movie record in my head. I had almost sessfully killed that b*tch right then and there. Why had I suddenly moved so slowly? Gosh, I hated myself!
Then, my phone rang. It was Alex from New Moon Pack who was calling.
“Emily, Why didn’t you tell me that that stupid idiot brough back a mistress? Where is my Rose?”
I had just picked up the call when his voice almost broke my eardrums.
“How the f*ck do I know where that sl*t is? Maybe she’s already dead!”
“F*ck you. I really regret working with you. You promised me that once the connection between them was broken, Rose woulde back to me. But I haven’t seen a single strand of her hair. Also, that d*mn father of mine had suddenly been investigated by the Council of Elders again. Now, he’s locked up and I’m sure the Council of Elders are still keeping an eye on my pack. You’d better behave yourself. If you cause any more trouble and implicate me, consider yourself dead.”
“Alpha Roger is being re-investigated? Why?” I had only managed to register this sentence in my head.
“Who the hell knows, and who the hell cares? The Council of Elders simply started re-investigating the case of Southern Wilderness Pack’s massacre. They have already stopped calling him ‘Alpha’. Ugh, honestly, he does deserve to die. But this has nothing to do with you, Emily. You just need to control your rotten and stinky thoughts, and stop licking blood on the tip of the knife! At least for the time being!”
“F*ck you!” I managed to scream as he was shouting at me. I immediately hung up and threw the phone into the wall. And just as I was trying to get a minute of peace, a voice came into my head.
‘I told you that you’d be shooting yourself in the foot for doing something so stupid.’
What the f*ck was going on tonight? Even my wolf was not on my side.
‘Shut your f*cking mouth, Agatha. No one will take you for a mute if you don’t talk.’
‘Why don’t you just stop? What is so great about bing Luna that you were even willing to sell your soul for it? Did you really think that Alpha would fall for a soulless she-wolf and make her the pack’s new Luna? Stop dreaming, Emily!’
‘You stupid mutt! Alpha would understand! I sold my soul to the dark witch for him! I f*cking love him and there’s nothing that will stop me from getting what I want!”
‘Your self-delusion amazes me. Did you know that if Annabel dies, you would too?’
‘Do I need to remind you that the dark witch has managed to live for hundreds of years? Did you really think she would die so easily?’
‘Emily, if the moon goddess ever asks me what I have regretted the most in this lifetime, I will say that it was bing your wolf. Take care, Emily.’
‘ Idiot, you don’t have a choice anyway. How much do you think I wanted a wolf like you too? You’re such a coward!’
‘You disrespected the previous Luna and broke her rtionship and connection with Alpha and the pack! And you just heard what had happened with Roger from New Moon Pack. Do you really think you would be able to get away with it all and have a happily ever after? You’ll just end up in the same way eventually. We all die at some point.’
‘You’re f*cking crazy. How dare you talk to me like that! Why must one be afraid of death? Just hope for the best and not get caught. Isn’t that simple? That b*tch Rose has disappeared and Alex is just worried about his title and reputation. That elf Eve and god*mn Sarah had dared to bicker with me but look at where they are now, cowering somewhere and afraid to tell the truth. As for Annabel, do you think Edward is dumb enough to let her go if she decided toe clean?’
‘You’re the one who’s f*cking crazy, Emily. You’re just a little mistake of a one-night stand that Alpha made, a desperate and cheap booty call he will never make again.’
The moment Agatha had herst word, she turned off her link with me and disappeared into the back of my head. She had shut me out, but I simply scoffed at her.
If I had just been Alpha’s booty call, then so was that b*tch, Mona. We were all the same in the end.
If I couldn’t have Edward, then no one could. That Mona would end up worse than Rose, I would make sure of it.
