Mystery of Fate: Luna Della’s Second Chance
Chapter 12

Chapter 0012

His fiancée? It wasn’t until I heard Margot mention her that I noticed Flora standing beside me.

She wore an understated white dress paired with a light blush that brought some life back to her spritely face. The makeup did a wonderful job of concealing whatever tragedies she claimed to have suffered as of recently, what with her supposed suicide attempt only a handful of days prior. She quickly scurried to Margot’s side and hid behind her, looking almost bewildered.

So Kylian was going to marry her and claim her his new Luna after all.

“Then, unfortunately, I must ask that Alpha Kylian accompany you to the entrance so that he may verify your claims,” the ser vant replied, unfazed. “Once he does so, we will be more than happy to invite you inside. If this cannot be arranged, we have no choice but to ask you to leave. Again, I apologize. But this is a matter of safety for our other guests. These are important Kingdom matters, after all.”

Not sparing Margot another chance to reply, the ser vant stiffly raised his hand and performed a beckoning motion with two h o oked fingers. Immediately, several guards, each one a tall and mighty warrior in service of the Lycan King, flanked the two women on either side.

Margot’s face stiffened and her eyes narrowed, acting insulted. In the presence of the guards, she had no choice but to slowly back away. Tears welled up in Flora’s eyes, and she slumped her shoulders forward as if she had been profoundly hurt.

“Whoa!” Fae suddenly called out. “Didn’t think I’d get to see two drama queens putting on a show like that before the party even started. That was one hell of a performance!”

Before I could stop her, she took my hand and started whistling as

Upon noticing me, Margot and Flora’s eyes widened to such a degree that I feared they’d burst right then and there. “Della? What are you doing here, you ungrateful b itch?! Kylian already rejected you. What kind of game are you trying to play now? Do you think you’d be able to win him back if you saw him here?”

I noticed the warriors around us quickly tense up, and one of them barked, “Watch your tongue!” Each guard looked ready to step forward and punish these fools for speaking to Lycan royalty in such a

manner.

“It’s okay. Stand down,” I ordered them, putting a hand on one of the guard’s chests. I could feel his muscles swelling underneath his

uniform.

I walked up to Margot and eyed her curiously. “I was invited today,” explained while pressing a finger into her shoulder. “In looser terms, you could say I’m a guest of the Lycan King. And might I remind you. that I was the one who rejected your brother? Why would I want to win him back”?”

Margot looked bewildered by my reply. I suppose she was expecting. an apology from me, though I had made it clear that no such thing would ever happen. She looked me up and down in disbelief and stared at my chest, suddenly a bit of courage curling her lips into a sly

smirk.

“So you aren’t just a cheap wh ore, but a thief as well!” she cried out viciously.

Hearing Margot’s false accusation, was almost instantly sent back to Dark Moon’s packhouse, trembling all over in fear of what punishment I would face at her behest.

It was nearly a common occurrence, though she seemed satisfied.

with slander most of the time. She told as many ears as she could reach that I was clumsy or st upid of any other insults to my character she could think of. When she was feeling especially wicked, she would claim that I broke glassware or stole food from the kitchen. Then, eager to punish, Luna Natasha would beat me without fail,

And now, in the comfort of my own home, on my father’s estate, she had stooped so low as to call me a thief again? S~ᴇaʀᴄh the Findɴovel.ɴet website on Gøøglᴇ to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

“What are you saying?” I asked with a puzzled frown.

“I recognize that gemstone. It’s The Heart of the Ocean! Kylian bought that necklace on auction, intending to give it to Flora as her birthday present. And for you to be wearing it now means you had the gall to take it when you left the packhouse! Oh, you lowly, destitute woman! Has leading such a base life left you with not even a shred of

conscience left?”

So the anonymous buyer who won the gemstone I wore was Kylian, not Jackson? Or so Margot claimed. Before I could mull over whether she was lying, Fae had already run up to her, leaving a hair’s breadth between the two.

“Hey!” She jammed a finger into the woman’s chest. “Who does this old witch think she is, talking to my friend like this? I’ll have you know Dell ave whatever necklace she wants. Only some no-name
