Chapter 26
Violet’s POV
I stared at Asher in shock. What did he just say? Kylie was Asher’s brother Isaac’s mate?! And she rejected him?
But I thought Kylie’s mate died on the same day she found him. She was even given a chance to reject him.
This was contradicting to everything that I knew!
I was still trying to make sense of everything that I just heard. But Asher had left the room with a large slam of the door. I wanted to go check on him. But there was something else I needed to do first.
I briefly asked Asher’s parents to take care of themselves and
left his office, dashing back home. The whole family was in the dining room having dinner when I barged in.
“What are you doing all covered in sweat? Did something
happen?” Jayden immediately asked.
I ignored everyone else and stared at Kylie. She gave me a little
eyeroll and went back to her plate.
“Where is your mate, Kylie?” I asked loudly.
She snapped her head up, “Where did you find the nerve to ask
me that?! You took him from me-”
“Asher is my mate! Not yours! I am asking about your mate. Where the fuck is he?!” I snapped.
She paused, quickly glancing at me and then looked away. There was a flicker of panic in her eyes. It disappeared in the split of a second. But I caught it.
“He didn’t die, did he?” I demanded, step by step coming closer to her, my voice growing high. “You didn’t lose your mate–You fucking rejected him! Didn’t you!!!”
The whole family had stood up, looking at us in shock. Only mom tried to pull Kylie behind her back. Everyone else just stood on their spots, mind–blown by what I just said.
“R–Reject?” Michael stuttered, looking back and forth between me and Kylie. “But…But that isn’t right. Kylie’s mate died right
after she found him-”
“She lied about it!” I screamed, “She knew her mate was a rogue!
She didn’t want a rogue as mate so she rejected him. Then she
pretended that she had lost her mate and used all of our
sympathy to get what she wants! She is a fucking manipulative
bitch!”
“SHUT UP!!” mom cried back, “Don’t talk to your sister like that!”
I pointed a shaky finger at Kylie, “She ruined my life! She stole my mate, killed my wolf, caused me to suffer 7 years in pain for her own vanity. All because she wanted an Alpha as mate instead of a rogue!!!”
Furious tears streamed down my face, blurring my vision.
I couldn’t believe that I even felt sorry for Kylie before. I even blamed myself for causing her pain. The truth was that she orchestrated everything herself and pretended to be the biggest victim!
I should have married Asher 7 years ago.
I should have a happy family to grow up with.
I could have had a healthy wolf.
I could have been the Luna that everyone loved and respected.
But I gave all that up for this evil, lying, selfish bitch! And she called herself my twin sister!
I tried to get to Kylie. But mom blocked my way.
“This is the most ridiculous lie I have ever heard! You made it
up!” mom was still trying to defend Kylie.
“Then ask this bitch if I was lying!”
“Violet! I won’t tolerate that kind of language under my roof!”
my dad said thunderously.
“I can behave however I want because I am not a kid anymore
and you have never cared for me like a real parent anyway!” I
bravely screamed back. To have a family like this was even
worse than being raised in an orphanage.
“Kylie! What happened to your mate really? Tell us!” Philip
grimly demanded.
“He died. OK?! Are you happy now? Peeling off my scars like
that?!” Kylie cried, “Violet is crazy! Stay away from me you
crazy lying bitch!”
“No. Violet isn’t a liar. She wouldn’t lie about things this big.”
This time it was Jayden. He gave me a firm look. I had never
been more grateful about his support.
“How can you be so sure that Violet wasn’t lying?” Kylie cried
clenching her fists, “Did…Did Asher say something?”
“So there is INDEED something? And you are afraid that Asher
would tell us?” Jayden asked, suspicious.
I could see the panic hiding behind her seemingly tough
appearance. Her lie was crumbling apart.
“Let me tell you what happened.” I sneered, saying loudly to
everyone. “She wants an Alpha mate instead of a rogue mate. So
she rejected Isaac and told everyone that he was dead! Use our
sympathy to manipulate the whole family and became Asher’s
Luna. Wake up, everyone! We are all pawns in her hand!”
I couldn’t stop thinking if.
If Kylie had told everyone the truth, maybe Isaac wouldn’t have
started that attack.
And then Patrick wouldn’t have died, Elena wouldn’t have
killed herself. I wouldn’t have lost my best friend and Mia
wouldn’t have become an orphan.
All those people’s lives ruined.
Just because Kylie wasn’t happy with the Moon Goddess’s
arrangement.
All those people died for a stupid reason like that!
“Now are you still going to deny this?!” I cried in tears.
“Who the hell do you think you are to question me like that?”
Kylie spat.
“Kylie!” my dad finally started to look angry. He slammed his
hand against the table and urged, “Tell us the truth!”
There was a small pause. Then Kylie gave a casual shrug, like it
wasn’t such a big deal and we had all overacted.
“Yes. My mate is the rogue king.” she said.
She didn’t say that Isaac was Asher’s brother though.
Everyone gasped in shock and horror. And then was a loud
crashing sound–Michael smashed his glass at the wall in rage.
“You fucking played us?! You pretended to be the victim and
now everyone’s life is ruined because of you!!!” he snarled.
Kylie didn’t look guilty at all. “What’s wrong with reaching for
what I want?! Is it fair for me then that my mate is a filthy rogue
and her mate is a mighty Alpha? If you ask me, you should feel
sorry for yourselves since you can’t hold onto anything you
want in your life! Unlike me!”
She leered at me and then proudly announced:
“Just wait for it–Asher is definitely going to be mine!”
