The Rejected Luna Queen novel Chapter 131

Aurora's POV

The room was a bit dark and I knew that the evening had come. As I sat on the bed, I kept trying to put myself together but it wasn't working at all.

I tried to force myself to sleep a few times but it wasn't to be. Sleep was far away from me; farther than my fingers could reach.

Images of Alpha Bane demolishing that man kept flashing in my head over and over again. No matter how hard I tried, I just couldn't seem to get it off my head.

I was stricken with fear ever since I witnessed that encounter. I couldn't imagine that he could do something so horrible. The man was already out. Yet, he didn't stop hitting him, letting the blood of the man splash on his face without even caring one bit.

It was true that the man deserved what he got. Indeed, he couldn't have expected anything less than that after what he did. We were on the brink of war just because of his singular action. But that kind of beating was best suited for the guards, yet, not to that extent.

Alpha Bane looked like a beast enraged. He looked like he had finally been set free from his cage and poor Ivan was the first to taste his fury. I wondered what had become of him.

Alpha Bane too, hadn't come to see me since then. As much as I feared having him come around me, something in me did expect him to come to look for me, especially since I wasn't in our chambers. I was in another room in the Castle where I usually loved to sleep back then before we left for his Pack. We used to sleep separately then.

I lay on my bed again to sleep, rolling around as much as I could, but u still couldn't. I wasn't hungry either. The only thing that seemed to matter to me was the witch's prophecy about the change in the character of Alpha Bane and how it was already playing out in such a short period.

As I yet thought, a knock on my door broke me out of my deep thoughts and I wondered who it might be.

Since I'd had nothing to eat, I assumed that it was just one of the maids and I was in no mood to entertain anyone. "Please, go away. U don't want to talk or attend to anyone at the moment. You may come back later," I said, still lying down.

I heard the knock again and I raised my brow, wondering why the maid just wouldn't listen. U didn't stand though. I had no time for that.

The door went right open and standing right behind it was Alpha Bane. My chest immediately tightened on seeing him.

He was sweating profusely and looked to be breathing heavily, making me wonder if he had been running. Stepping into the room, he locked the door behind him and turned to look at me as our gazes

Alpha Bane's POV

As I got into Aurora's room, panting heavily, I turned around and shut the door behind me. Then I took a few steps toward her before pausing abruptly.

I gazed deeply into her eyes to see how she'd react. I knew she was still angry at me for what happened earlier and I wanted to make amends. I didn't want to have any lingering issues with her.
