Chapter 1Betrayal

Zina:

"Congratulations, Luna! You're two weeks pregnant!" The pack doctor who sat across me practically squealed with excitement, and all I could do was blink in disbelief. It felt like she was playing a prank on me. Or was she not?

"Uhh?" I widened my eyes in shock, but she pulled out the pregnancy test and handed it to me. Scanning through it, I gasped- I was pregnant. I was truly pregnant! After two seemingly endless years of hoping, it felt like the moon goddess had finally smiled upon me, proving all my doubts of her despising me, wrong.

"Thank you so so much," I exclaimed with excitement, slipping the report into my bag as I hastily left her office. I was determined to prove Xaden wrong about my supposed barrenness, so I rushed to my car and headed straight to his office.

It was funny that today marked our two-year anniversary, and what better way to celebrate by sharing the news of my pregnancy results with him. Over the past two years, I endured relentless bullying, particularly from his sister and mother, all because I couldn't bear him as a child. Now, armed with this life-changing news, I hoped they'd finally give me the respect I deserved as a Luna.

Speaking of the devil, I collided with Xaden's mother as she exited his building, causing my bag to tumble to the ground. For reasons unknown to me, that woman harbored a deep disdain for my very existence.

"You're so blind and dumb to realize you shouldn't be walking that hastily?I can't fathom what's putting that much joy on your face" She sneered at me when she noticed how bright and happy my face was, but as those words left her mouth, my expression shifted

momentarily to a saddened one. Just for that brief moment, though.

I was determined not to let her mar my happiness.

"I'm sorry, Mo...ther," I apologized, bowing, but all I received was a loud hiss. Her glare pierced through me, as though I had uttered some unspeakable curse.

"I'm not and will never be your mother! For two years, you haven't given me a grandchild. Do you realize how heart-wrenching that is?"

"I..." A part of me longed to reveal that I was carrying her son's child, the grandchild she had always desired and berated me for not providing. But no, I held back. She would hear the good news from Xaden himself.

She nodded in disappointment, and as she walked away, her next words struck me like a bolt and made me numb for a few minutes. "If you value your well-being, I'd suggest you turn back and steer clear of Xaden's office. You might endure a heartbreak if you do."

What in the goddess' name did she mean by that? It was just a joke, right? Right. I decided to brush off her words and dispel the fear she had planted within me during those brief minutes. Bending down, I picked my bag off the ground, straightened out my disheveled clothes, and confidently walked towards the floor where his office was located.

Xaden was the Alpha of the Waterfall pack,and as such, juggled pack duties with the numerous companies he had. I was so in love with him that I got married to him two years ago, despite my parents' objections. It was sad that I went against their wishes to marry him.

Fueled by deep love, I turned a deaf ear to their warnings and ran far away from my pack and honestly , our life together was warm and comforting until a few months ago when he started growing distant, avoiding conversations and the mutual love we once shared.

A part of me speculated that the pack's rumors about me being an incapable and barren Luna had finally taken a toll on him, explaining his changed behavior. But now, with the

exciting news of my pregnancy, I couldn't wait to share it with him, hoping to reclaim the love, warmth and closeness we once had.

Breathing heavily after climbing numerous staircases, I finally reached his office. I spotted his receptionist and chose to ignore her, knowing she didn't like me, either.

"Alpha isn't around, ma'am," she jerked up when she saw me,stating with an edgy tone, and I sensed something was amiss. I had seen his car outside, so why was she lying?

"I saw his mom a few minutes ago, and she told me he's in. Why play tricks on me?" Anger etched on my face, and I noticed sweat forming on her forehead.

"It's... just... that... he's..." Her words came out in ragged breaths, but I couldn't endure it so I ignored her and walked directly to his office, my heels clicking on the marble tiles.

Reaching for the doorknob, I attempted to open it, only for what I heard next to send my heart racing twice its normal rate.

"I never knew you'd taste so fucking good, Xaden." The unmistakable female voice resonated from Xaden's room. For a moment, it felt like I was in a trance. My Xaden? The voice sounded painfully familiar, and an impending sense of dread gripped me.

"Oh, fuck! Have I told you how sweeter you are than Zina?" Xaden's voice reached my ears, and I found myself frozen in place. Bile rose up my throat, and soon, the office echoed with loud moans and impassioned grunts that I couldn't escape.

My wolf asked me to turn back, in order to keep my pup growing in my womb safe,but I refused. There are risks worth taking,right? I took three deep breaths and flung the door open.

What was right before my eyes made my stomach churn. He was on his couch, thrusting into another lady so loudly and intensely, that they didn't even notice my presence,not until my bag left my grip and fell to the ground.

"Shit! What the fuck are you doing here, Zina?" Xaden furrowed his brows in anger as he pulled out, a few drops of sperm littering the floor as he zipped up. The other lady groaned in pleasure, leaving no doubt about how much she had enjoyed it.

"The question should be, what are you doing with..." I was abruptly cut off when the lady turned her face towards me. A smirk played on her lips, revealing none other than Trina, my best friend – the person I trusted with my entire life.

"Trina?!" I called out, tears welling up at the corners of my eyes. These two had been betraying me? My legs threatened to give way, but I resisted the fall. I couldn't harm my pup and no, I wouldn't let them see me as weak. Not now.

"You didn't tell me Xaden was this... ughh, sweet..." she moaned, and an intense urge to twist her head and pluck her greedy eyes out surged within me.

I turned to Xaden, desperately hoping for remorse, an apology, anything. Instead, his face twisted into something akin to disgust. I watched as his eyes glared daggers,as though I was the one caught in the act.

How the fuck could I tell him that I was pregnant? I was carrying his child, yet he was hurting me so much. I had given away two years, two damn years of my life , just to be with him, and build a future together.

I sacrificed my medical career in the pursuit of marrying Xaden. Nothing else held significance at that point except him. Despite my father being the Alpha of a prestigious pack, I turned a deaf ear to his warnings and went so far as to run away from my pack to join his, all for the man who captured my heart. And this is the repayment? Cheating on me with my best friend?

"Xaden, I..." I muttered, attempting to share the news of my pregnancy, hoping it would spark a realization that he was about to become a father. However, his next words sent a searing pain through my body.

"You're a slut, Zina. A whore!" he yelled,and I couldn't contain the freely flowing tears and loud sobs. A whore,really? Who had poisoned him with these lies? 

He had the audacity to call me that when I just caught him with Trina.

"Stop the pretense,Zina! Here, Have a look." He stormed to his desk, punched something into his phone, and hurled it at me.

I clutched the phone tightly in my palm to avoid it slipping, and as I looked at its contents, my eyes widened in shock, that I gulped so loudly.

The Fate Of The World Is In My Hands, But All I Want To Do Is Eat!

'Kill monsters, eat meat' 'I mean, Kill monsters, save lives. Got it.' 'Tut, I could've sworn that the first one sounded better.' She wasn't a girl looking for freedom or self-righteous liberation by a hero, or whatever shit a girl who suffered for almost all her life would crave. -the shit of a life she was living was horrible, but it was bearable, and so she got used to it. Rather, instead of freedom, what this little missy wanted was money. Lots and lots of them so she never has to worry about the next day. Money - bountiful enough that when she has to spend, she doesn't need to look back or calculate her assets to see how much she has left. Money - bountiful enough to get all the fried chicken she could ever dream of. Yeah, you heard it, fried chicken. For those who did not have money to spare leisurely, getting fried chicken was like a pipe dream to them and she had been one of those unfortunate souls. A comfortable roof above her head and no worries as to when she would get ordered around to steal. No worries about when she would get her next meal-- That was her liberation. And she got it. Just that, she got it most absurdly. Awakened! Those were the people ruling the world, alongside beastly and deadly monsters who threatened the safety of average human beings. And those awakened call the shots. Alice never dreamed she would one day be awakened, and compared to others with their game-like system displaying their attributes and strength; she had a full-grown man whom only she could hear, watching her back at every turn and telling her what to do. He was kinda a pain in the ass but she couldn't complain. It was this gift he had bestowed on her that made her the most powerful Awakened there was with stats that even S-class awakeneds couldn't compare to. She was the boss, now. Mwa-hahahahaha. But life didn't go as easy and leisurely as she planned. With great power comes great responsibility, right? Well, in her case with great power comes great hunger. She couldn't go a moment without getting hungry and her stomach had become a bottomless pit. And to get food, she needed money, and to get money, she had to hunt monsters. The monsters plagued humanity, causing catastrophes and taking lives mercilessly. Those monsters, as scary as they may be, were her target and she had to face them head-on. The bigger the monsters the more money she would gain. Yeah, that was the plan, but... This guy acting as her system seemed to have other plans, putting her at the forefront of 'justice' and having her clean the mess he somewhat created. 'Ugh, I can already sense a shadow of foreboding. Someone, please tell me I'm not acting the main character role. I just want to eat, okay?'
