DISOWNED

OCTAVIA POV My cheek is burning. Mom's slap still resounding in my ear. The feeling of pain in my chest is so overwhelming. Mom has never slapped me before, for her to do that right now, it could only mean one thing......She's furious. I look up at her remorseless face. Her eyes speak voices.It's like they're saying they expected more from me, or I might I failed her.I look at Luna Lora and she has this rediculious smile on her face.Anger brews within me. My blood is boiling I want to hurt her but I refuse to do that I clench my jaw a failed attempt of preventing myself from spur out my venom. " You slapped me because of that woman. That selfish woman who only thinks about herself? " I question bitter. Tears escaping my eyes as my heart aches with anger. I honestly don't know if I should feel sorry for her, or be mad about the slap.If only she knew the type of monster that Lora truly is." You deserve it, Octavia," she retorts, her eyes blazing with anger. "You're be

UNEXPECTED

OCTAVIA POV I stand frozen, my heart shattering into a million pieces as my mother's words hang in the air like a death sentence. "You're no longer my daughter."I feel like I've been punched in the gut, unable to breathe. How can she say that? How can she just disown me?Tears stream down my face, my heart feels scattered.My tommy hurts horribly but more than that I am disappointed, that my own mom would turn her back on me for a woman she knows nothing about." Are you ok Luna?" I hear a masculine voice behind me, followed a hand on my shoulder. I know it's Martin trying to comfort me, but even his touch can't ease the agony ripping through me." I am fine. Go attend to the alpha" I lie, wiping my tears in a bit to suppress my feelings.Looking vulnerable is not a good look on a Luna, plus I am worried about Eren.The way he cried earlier still bothers me." I can't Luna" He objects taking his hand off me." What do you mean Martin, are you disobeying your Luna?" I ask in anger,

Eren, my loving husband, on his knees, tears streaming down his face as the caregiver, I hired to take care of him raises a cane to strike him again.My heart shatters into a million pieces. How could I have trusted this monster to care for my vulnerable husband?Without thinking, I rush towards them, my voice screaming in rage. "STOP! GET AWAY FROM HIM!"The caregiver spins around, his eyes widening in shock as I charge towards him. I can see the fear in his eyes, as his limbs terrible uncontrollably but it only fuels my anger.I grab the cane from his hand, flinging it across the room .My hands shaking with fury. " Luna it's not what it looks like......" The traitor begins to spur out his vile lies but I cut in furious, unable to put up with his stupid camouflage."How dare you!" I spit, my voice venomous.

I ask, my voice barely above a whisper "Do you think he is getting better with his temporal recovery last night" The look he is giving me scares me silly.I had called him last night, informing him about Eren's current predicament, so I am really looking forward to hearing what he has to say.The doctor's expression turns somber. " The alpha simply had an episode last night. It's not uncommon for people with his condition to experience these episodes."He rules.His words though few, manages to snatch my smile away For a moment I feel a glimmer of disappointment.My heart feels heavy and an unsettling frown creeps out ward."Does this mean he's getting better?"

I'm so caught up in my thoughts that I don't even notice the front door is open until I'm already inside.Upon entering the living room, I'm surprised to see Eren standing in front of the TV, covered in a thick layer of flour.He looks like a ghost, and for a moment, I'm taken aback.I am stunned wordless."Eren, what...?" I start asking, but he just looks at me with a sheepish expression.Just then the two middle aged women I ordered to watch over my darling husband run in, panic etched on their faces."
