Alpha King’s Lost Luna - Season 3 Episode 53
SILAS
Much to my irritation, it was my duty to watch over the sorceress tonight. I wasn’t thrilled by the pros had to follow the orders of my king.
Unlike the others, I hadn’t believed a single word that poured out of Roxy’s mouth this afternoon. In her stor claimed were completely factual, she’d implied that the great sorcerers of old were omnipotent and incredible, werewolves were utterly useless. According to supposed legend, the most powerful of the magic-wielders could read people’s minds and even manipulate them when they saw fit.
But at the end of the day, these legends were merely stories. There was no proof that her stories were true and I only believed in solid evidence. Stories had never been enough. I needed to witness things with my own eyes, and thus far, I had no reason to believe her.
Besides, the sorceress was cunning. All she wanted was to play with our thoughts and intimidate them. Her sea-green eyes had a fierceness about them that couldn’t be denied, and no matter how much she fluttered her long eyelashes, I wasn’t falling for her tactics.
Unfortunately, once she realized that I wasn’t succumbing to her manipulation, she opted to make my evening a living hell. She kept making endless requests- to eat, drink, wipe her face, take her to relieve herself… the requests were constant, and I barely had a moment of silence.
When she wasn’t speaking, her gaze was fixed upon me as if I had something on my face. Though she didn’t comment on whatever was on her mind, her stare felt heavy, and there came a point where I forced myself to turn away slightly. But even when I closed my eyes, I could still sense her. It was annoying me to no end.
“Will you not speak?” she prompted me with mocking in her tone. When I didn’t respond, she spoke again. “Really? Not a word from you-”
“Shut up,” I growled before I could stop myself, and anger boiled in my chest. When I turned to face her, I was irritated to see that she wasn’t intimidated at all. On the contrary, her l*ps curled into a grin and she tilted her head to the side slightly
“So, you do have a voice after all,” she remarked, and then she laughed lightly. “I know you don’t trust me, seems to hold no weight. Your Alpha King trusts me and that’s all that matters.”

“Silence,” I snarled. “If you want to challenge my loyalty to the king, you should simply hold your breath instead. Unlike you, I’m not going to betray my Alpha.”
My voice was heavy with disdain, so much so that Roxy was stunned for a moment. Her l*ps parted in surprise and then she gulped.
“You don’t understand,” she said in a low voice that was nearly a whisper, and she tucked a strand of black hair behind her ear. “You understand nothing.”
Though I was tempted to fall for the bait and demand that she stay quiet, I didn’t reply. She was trying to get a rise out of me and I couldn’t fall for it, not when it was my duty to keep an eye on her. I had to remain composed, at least for the most
part.
After a short silence, her eyes fixed on me again, but her expression lost its cruelness and grew serious.
“You have no idea what I sacrificed for my loyalty,” she remarked.
“I’m not interested in whatever tale you have to tell,” I sighed as I rolled my eyes at her. Why should I care about her feelings? There were much bigger things to worry about.

“You’re not interested in anything other than your stupid loyalty” she fired back defiantly. “You’re like a stick of iron, completely lacking emotions, while I’m not. That’s why you think you’re better than me, but I can assure you that’s not true.”
As her irritation reached my ears, I frowned.
Was there an ounce of truth in her words?
“Have you ever loved anyone?” she continued.
I didn’t reply, but I couldn’t resist getting swept into her question. Before I could stop myself, my mind wande to Becky.
I thought about our last meeting, the look in her beautiful reddish-brown eyes as she stared up at me. Was she alright? Was she staying with that healer man?
Had she given him an answer after his confession of love?
Just the thought of it all was enough for a lump to form in my throat.
I tried not to think of these questions, as a very small part of me was worried that Roxy would read my mind like the sorcerers she spoke so highly of. I couldn’t risk her finding a weak spot in me and using it for her escape.
But much to my surprise, she was no longer watching me. Instead, she stared off at the distance and seemed lost in her own thoughts. She tugged at the sleeve of her black sweater absently.
“Love is selfish,” she mused quietly. “Loyalty is selfless. They can’t coexist.”
Before I could reply, she turned back to me. “If you’ve ever loved anyone and made a vow to be loyal to that person…. is your vow rendered broken if your lover chooses someone else?”
I watched her mournful face for a moment and then spoke. “Are you speaking of Kaleb?”
She didn’t answer, but it was obvious that I was correct.
“If something made you selfish, it should not be love,” I said. “Love is something divine and would have made you selfless. Isn’t the happiness of the person you love all that matters?”
Roxy laughed lightly and then shook her head. “You’re so pretentious. What would you do if the one you loved decided to choose someone else and abandoned you completely? Would you remain so gallant?”
I pursed my l*ps. I couldn’t answer the question.
I didn’t want to.
The sorceress sighed. “You might be right. Love can be selfless as long as one can watch the person they love every day and feel the happiness of that alone. But being abandoned… that’s another story. For all of these years, I have tried to be useful to him. I obeyed all of his orders and did all of the nasty jobs he required of me. All I wanted was to be at his side and stay with him. But in the end. I was no more than a pawn that could be thrown away?”
Just as her bright eyes welled up with tears, she shifted her head and avoided contact with me, but not before I caught a glimpse of hate and longing on her face.
I suddenly fell suffocated
I didn’t know if it was a magic trick played by the sorceress or if it was simply her words that made me feel the were of
Berty
Was Roxy right? Could I place her happiness above mine? Could I surrender her if she were to choose another man?
Could I discard my love for her if it meant she could be happy?
