The Perfect Luna Chapter 7

Waiting for her at the bottom of the stairs stood Beta Ash. Not her husband. Dressed in a black tuxedo, he offered his hand when she reached him, which Ria was initially reluctant to accept but later reconsidered. He hadn’t betrayed her yet. She couldn’t count on him, although there was still time to change the events which later unfolded where he played a part. Or at least give it a try. If the Beta supported her at the Alpha Council when her request for a divorce would take place, everything could go smoothly.

“Nice dress.” He gave her another compliment, to which she rewarded him with a brief smile.

“Thanks.” They were walking towards a car that was already waiting for them, and she frowned when she realised it was a limo. Meaning she would have to ride with her husband and Roxy. How unpleasant.

oint. Brayden seemed to be the only one willing to listen intently to all that and with a very serious face too. While he was at it, he should shed a few tears as well. Ria wanted to roll her eyes. None of it seemed realistic at all. Even rogues were not that cruel in their groups. She could believe that someone would pick at an omega, of course, but Roxy’s entire story was questionable. In her past life, she tried to fact-check it. However, everything matched up. The more she thought about it, the more she came to the conclusion that perhaps she hadn’t looked thoroughly enough after all. Making just a simple query as Luna of her own pack, she had reached out to Roxanne’s pack. The Alpha admitted way too readily that Roxy was indeed mistreated. Why didn’t he deny that? No one needed that kind of a reputation.
