The Rejected Luna Queen novel Chapter 82

Alpha Bane's POV

The guards dragged Sophia out of the palace as everyone watched on. Her vain attempts to break free of the hold of the guards only served to amuse all that was around. The almighty Sophia, as she thought herself to be, was being dragged away by common guards to be thrown into the dungeon, where she belonged, just like her mother. They belonged together, by each other's sides.

I was so full of happiness and I felt an instant relief come over me that instant. Her imprisonment was long due. It only needed someone to be brave enough to make it happen. I was that brave man and I couldn't have been prouder.

It gladdened my soul to know that Aurora was going to have no more obstacles on her way to becoming the sole heir of the Silver Moon Pack. It was no less than she deserved. She had suffered for way too long and needed that breath of fresh air. She was finally going to have it.

Sophia too was going to get the punishment that was due to her. Indeed, it was justice served on a platter. I hoped for her sake that she'd enjoy it. Wickedness did have consequences. It was something she was about to find out in no distant time.

I turned to face Aurora, wanting to know how she'd react to the fate of her foe, but I was cut short by the glaring eyes of the Alpha King and his Queen who were looking back at me.

The King looked solemn, as expected. I didn't expect anything less from a man who just sentenced his child to the dungeon after being lied to and betrayed by the same. I felt sorry for him. It was surely a bad moment for him, but I was sure he was always going to get over it. It was just a matter of time. He made the right decision, even if he didn't think that way at the time. He was soon going to realise that.

Surprisingly, he shot me a thumbs up to show his appreciation to me for revealing the truth and making sure that Sophia was put in her rightful place. As much as it was painful, it was surely a relief to them to get the lies out of the way and face the truth squarely. I was glad that I made it happen.

I felt a nudge on my side and I turned to see who it was, even though I already knew. No one else there could have had the guts to do that except Aurora. "Why did you decide to expose Sophia?" She asked me with a keen look on her face but before I could answer she opened her mouth to say something else so I held on a bit. "How were you able to find out everything that she did? It's no easy thing, you know."

As I looked down at her, I felt my eyes glint with happiness. "I did it all for you, Aurora. Only for you."
