The Rejected Luna Queen novel Chapter 137

Dylan's POV

"Hey, Johnny. Thank goodness you're here," I said, as soon as I saw Johnny walking toward me as I stood outside my chambers. "Do you come bearing good news?"

"I come bearing news," he replied, shaking his head. "It's certainly not good news though. It's more on the bad side."

"What happened?" I asked, with my palms bared as I wondered what must have gone wrong.

"It's about Alpha Bane and Aurora."

"What about them?"

"They'll be going ahead with their wedding regardless of the message that was sent to them," he revealed. " I heard that preparations have commenced in earnest."

"That's not such a bad thing, is it?" I asked, looking to exploit the opportunity the best way that I could.

"That's not all," Johnny continued. "They're back to the Blue Moon Pack and they have Ivan with them."

"Ivan? What do they want from the man?"

"They were able to lay their hands on him somehow. I heard that they got him to tell them that he was the one who helped us set Sophia free. Such a coward! He couldn't even hold on a bit after all that we agreed."

"Let's head outside," I said to him, immediately walking down the corridor as he followed me behind. As we walked, I began to ponder on what he had said, trying to see if there was anything I could do about it.

"Well, we both know that Ivan isn't of much help or use to us anyway," I chuckled. "I mean, he's only a means to an end, isn't he? He doesn't matter to me at all and I don't care what happens to him from now on. He's a disposable part of the plan and if he takes the fall for what we have done, then we simply have him to thank for that, don't we?"

He nodded and I loved that he agreed with what I communicated. Unlike before, we weren't always on the same page and it did give me some sort of concern. Thankfully, things began to change between us. At least, I felt it did.

"What I'm enraged about is that Alex still lives his life as if nothing is going on," I confessed. "Even after the threats that I made, he still dared to go ahead with the wedding plan. He must consider me weak and my threat insufficient. Perhaps, I need to show him that I'm not here to joke at all."

"How do you intend to do that?" Johnny asked.

"Simple. Since he has decided to go ahead with the wedding, we're going to use it to our advantage," I suggested. "We'll attack them on their wedding day when they least expect it. I want us to give them something memorable on their wedding day. If we're to teach them a good lesson, that day would be our best chance to do that."

Johnny stared at the ground for a few seconds and then looked back up at me. "I don't think we should do that, Dylan. We could be playing right into their hands."

"What do you mean?"

"If they decided to go on with the wedding despite the threat, don't you think they'll be very much prepared for any attack?" He asked. "It could even be a trap. I'd suggest that we should leave them alone to go through with their wedding, and then attack them later on when they least expect it. If we want to surprise them, their wedding day won't be of much help to us in that light."

He was right. I could see why I still needed him despite my stubbornness in consenting that he was indeed a very smart person. "Okay then, we'll…"

I was interrupted by the sight of Sophia and Alpha Dwayne who walked by, talking and laughing. They seemed to have not noticed us as we stared at them and Sophia did all she could to make contact with him at all times.

I couldn't understand why she was overly friendly with the man. It got me upset, especially when she placed her head on his shoulder for a few seconds as they talked and laughed. Then she grabbed his hand and I saw her caress it as they walked.

"Something fishy is going on with these two," I said to Johnny, still staring at the pair.

"I agree, Dylan. I think they need to be looked into."

I halted our conversation and began to walk over to where Sophia and the man were.
