Chasing His Betrayed Luna

ALPHA RAIDEN

I felt at peace as I looked at Nolan's lifeless body while his wife screamed her lungs out. She was clearly experiencing the pain of losing her mate but I didn't care. I couldn't bring myself to care.

Nolan for Ronald.

Larisa's father for my father.

It was simple. An eye for an eye.

"Take his body to one of the cells. Let him rot there like my father did in his daughter's captivity." I let out that order without a single emotion slipping. My men rushed to carry out the order while my pack members silently watched. There was no kid around to witness the gruesome scene.

I continued speaking, "Let this be a lesson to you all. If you are caught with the traitor, you will be stripped of your honor and dealt with in ways you can't even imagine. It's either you give up on helping Larisa or never get caught. This is my last warning."

I wanted whoever was working with Larisa to know that I was onto them. That would push him or her to make a mistake and reveal himself or herself. Maybe lead me to Larisa too. That would be the best because I was dying to teach that bitch that she messed with the wrong person.

She wouldn't know the kind of demon I could be because she had always been on my good side but now that she was an enemy, she'd understand that.

My mom was standing beside me and she didn't flinch when Nolan's life was taken. She must feel at peace too. That was for my dad... her mate.

"You can't do this to us! We are a respectable family!" Helen screamed, tears pouring out of her eyes like she had a dam inside her orbs.

I seethed, "I already did, Helen, and you are only respectful when I say so. If I say otherwise, you are ruined."

For Helen, I had a different plan. Nolan was dead but Helen would live as bait for her daughter and she would also live like a rat just like my mom did in her daughter's prison.

Convincingly, I called Nina out and she stepped forward, bowing her head to me as I started speaking, "I hereby strip Helen of her authority, strength, and rank. I demote her and her wolf to the lowest rank. She is below the omega as from this instant and she will become one of the unpaid servants that her daughter maltreated while she acted as the Luna of the pack."

I watched Helen scream in agony as my words took effect. I felt her energy leaving her body and her wolf's aura diminished. She was born into a gamma family but as her Alpha, I had made her lose her natural power.

"Understood, Alpha." Nina acknowledged my words.

"You'll be held responsible if she escapes the pack, Nina. Do you understand me?" I asked.

"Yes, Alpha. She won't escape me." Nina promised and I could tell that she meant every word.

"Drag her away and put her to work." I sealed Helen's fate.

I got a feeling that I had handed Helen over to the right person as I was aware of Nina's child being one of Larisa's captives.

"You can all return to your home, keep your eyes open for any traits, and report them immediately. It's time we make our pack a safe place for us." I addressed the crowd before dismissing them.

I faced my mom and she smiled sadly, saying, "We should give your father a proper burial soon. His spirit needs to rest peacefully."

"Arrangements have been made for that, Mom. In fact, I plan to invite Aurelia and the kids to the funeral as soon as I leave here. The pack will be informed afterward."

"I hope she would stay that long." My mom stated even though she didn't know the day I had chosen for the funeral.

I didn't ask her any questions as she

and Andrew walked towards the mansion and I gave Jake one last order before strolling towards the apartment where I knew Aurelia and the kids would be. "Put all the men we captured to hard work. They have all been demoted and as the gamma, you are responsible for them."

"Yes, Alpha." Jake bowed to me.

After two minutes of walking, I finally arrived in front of the apartment and I knocked before attempting to open the door. However, the door was yanked open before I could turn the knob and I came face to face with the twins.

"Hey, guys..." I was happy to see them and I put on my dad's face instead of the serious Alpha face that I had on earlier.

But the kids didn't seem pleased to see me. Katie folded her arms around her chest and Kyle glared at me like we didn't have fun together last night.

"What are you guys up to this time?" I chuckled uncomfortably but neither of them answered me. I scratched the back of my head as I added, "Where is your mom?"

"My mom doesn't want to see you, Raiden." Katie blurted.

Raiden?

This wasn't the first time she would call me that but I was getting used to her calling me dad.

Kyle confirmed, "Yes, you can leave. We will be leaving tomorrow too,"

"Leaving tomorrow?" I asked, my heart beating rapidly. I could sense that my greatest fear was about to become a reality.

"We're going home to Tristan and we'll never come back here," Katie announced, her words killing me faster than Larisa's silver bullet.

I got tongue-tied, wondering when Aurelia decided to leave tomorrow and why the kids were suddenly

unfriendly. My eyes threatened to et

release tears as I thought of the little time had left with the kids...with Aurelia... With my family.

Goddess, No!

I can't stand this punishment... punish me another way, please.

I begged the goddess but my plea fell on deaf ears.
