Chapter 84
LUNA JANE:
“Mom, Dad! So happy to see you two.” My parents arrived in their limo and I hugged them tight. I missed Mom even more, but my stepdad, I wouldn’t say I missed him so much.
The old man had sacrificed his daughter for me, and yet I still feel like it wasn’t enough. I still had this feeling that he had not done enough.
“Dad, welcome.” I managed to say as I was so good at hiding my emotion in front of me. My mom knew exactly how I felt, but she had told me to trust him. He was under her grasp anyway. She had him at the tip of her finger, and he always did exactly what she wanted.
“Let’s go in. I made something nice for you two.”
“Where’s your husband?” Dad questioned, and I cocked my head toward Mom,
“William, our daughter is what matters the most right now. We haven’t even asked her how she’s doing so why should we ask about her husband?” Mom interceded, and I averted my gaze at him,
Sometimes I do wonder why she was still with him. We were done using him already so why didn’t she let him leave with his miserable daughter,
“Oh, I’m so sorry my darling. I just got curious and I wanted to question if he was treating our princess right.”
I faked a smile, “Yes Dad, Zane is the best husband in the world and I think we’re just meant for each other.”
“That’s good.”
“Let’s go in now. I’m so famished.” Mom interrupted and we began to walk in together. I held Mom’s arms while Dad walked in front of us,
“Take it easy, Jane. He’s still your dad..”
“He isn’t and he would never be my dad,” I responded almost in a whisper so Dad wouldn’t hear it,
“Let’s go in first, we’ll talk about this privately.”
By my expression, she could tell that I was getting angry. Belongs to (N)ôvel/Drama.Org.
“What about the baby? Any news whether you’re pregnant or not?” My mood suddenly changed when I heard this and I didn’t say a word. We got to the living room and I offered them both a seat.
“I’ll set up the dining now,” I said and began to walk towards the kitchen. I was so damn angry. I gently rubbed my stomach, thinking about the fact that I had lost my precious baby and it was all their fault.
A tear almost slid down my eyes as I sniffled,
“I’m sorry for not being able to protect you baby. They’ll pay…. they’ll pay for hurting you and we’ll start with the major problem. We’ll start with Katherine, and when she’s gone, we’ll deal with the rest no matter how hard it is.” I said and began picking up the dishes one after the other.
When I was done setting up the dining, I walked over to the living room,
“Mom, Dad, it’s ready. Come on, let’s eat.”
I knew my mom was going to bring up the topic about the baby again and I didn’t know what to say.
We all sat down, and just like I had expected, she brought it up,

“Jane, what’s wrong? Aren’t you supposed to take by now? It’s been months already and we’ve heard nothing. Is your husband not touching you?”
I shook my head in negation,
“No! No, Mom, it’s not that. Things haven’t been so easy for Zane, but the problem might be with me as well. But I promise, we’re expecting a good result soon”
“I’m so sorry for pressuring you, darling.” She rubbed my hand as she spoke, “I want a grandchild, an heir to the pack, a child to secure your position as Luna of the Blue Crest pack. It’s all I and your father dream about every day.”
Dad nodded his head and I smiled,
“Don’t worry Mom, I promise we’ll make as many babies as you want when the time is right. That time would come soon so be rest assured.” I assured and began to dish out the food for her,
“You’re good for nothing step sister got pregnant just a month after her marriage with Alpha Zane, and I want you to try your best.”
Mom just had to bring up Katherine.
Her eyes were fixed on Dad’s and it made me wonder what the hell was happening. Did she say this intentionally,
“Jane, where’s the restroom? I need to make use of it.”
“Over there, take your left Dad and you’ll see it.”
He rose to his feet and began to walk away. Once I was done dishing out Mom’s food, I took my seat,
“Mom, what’s wrong? You don’t look so good or happy. Did he do anything to you?”
“He called his late wife’s name in his sleep three days ago Jane. I think he’s been seeing her lately and it pisses the hell out of me.”
I scoffed,
“That’s why you have to get rid of him, Mom. We already got what we wanted, and right now his daughter’s nothing anymore. She’s going to be dead soon anyways…”
“Dead? Katherine isn’t dead? Are you nuts? What have you been doing all this time? How hard is it to take care of a godforsaken lowlife out there? You‘
much more powerful now, so what’s wrong?”
“She just had to encounter someone strong, but it’s not something that I can’t take care of. She’ll be gone
tomorrow.”
“That’s good enough. I just don’t know what to do with him.”
“Get a divorce.”
“I can’t. There’s something I need first before I do that.”
“What is it, mom.”
before
“The document to his late wife’s properties and estate. It’s so huge, Jane, trust me, it is huge. It’s a fortune and I want that fortune. Who knows such a half–dead woman would own this much wealth.”
“What? How come we’re just knowing about that now? What if Katherine has it?”
“She doesn’t..if she does, then she would never have been so poor after we sent her packing. It’s somewhere, but we just have to figure out where. Unfortunately, William has no damn idea where it is.”
I watched her heave deeply and it made me unhappy. I hated seeing my mom so stressed about things I wished I

could handle myself.
“You’ll have to divorce him after you find it Mom. It irks me that he’s still with you. We had this planned all along Mom. He’s done exactly what we want him to do and now it’s time to let go of him. He could go join his daughter six feet under the ground, I don’t care about it. I would never see him as a father no matter what he does for me. My father is long dead and he killed him. He killed my dad years ago…”
“That’s enough, Jane,”
*1….”
“Your dad’s here, that’s okay baby.”
My eyes were soaked in my tears and when Dad came to sit beside me, I looked away.
“Is something wrong baby? Tell me?”
Those words irritated me so much, but then I had to pretend like they did nothing to me. His worry and care were all fake and no matter what I would never trust him. This was just the beginning because I would leave him miserable after Katherine’s death. I was this close to ending the life of his last family and I would leave him without one soon, He’ll live a miserable life till he wishes for nothing more but death. That was how much I was willing to pay this man for ruining my life years ago,
“Our daughter has a lot on her plate darling, she’ll be fine.” My mom cut in on my behalf and I nodded,
“I’ll be fine Dad. I just feel so emotional seeing you and Mom again. I’m just so happy.” I responded.
He touched my hand and slowly began to rub it,
“Your mom and I always miss you too sweetheart.”
I could feel my eyes turning red and my blonde boiling so hot when I felt his hand on mine,
“Let’s eat. Enough of the heartwarming moment.” She chuckled as she spoke and he let go of my hand. I rose and dished out his portion before taking my seat again,
“Thank you for the food darling.” He uttered and as I watched him dig in, I said to myself,
“It’s just a little more time William. Just a little more and you’ll find out who the hell you’re dining with. That little girl who promised to make your life a living hell ten years ago, it’s me.”
