I realized then that Jane's betrayal went far deeper than I ever imagined. She had manipulated everyone, including George, to get what she wanted.

“How can you do this to me, Jane? I caught you cheating on alpha George with Mike his brother. I did not report you because you are my sister and you promised to change.”

Jane sneered at me. “You are so stupid that you irritate me! Mike is my true love, don't you know? I am building a house with him in the capital. I sold my wedding jewelry for that reason and maxed out George's second account, saying I used the money to settle your gambling debts.” She winked at me and laughed gleefully.

Fresh tears ran down my face at the betrayal. “Jane, I don't even know the difference between the cards. How can I gamble?”

“Doesn't matter. The truth is what I say it is. After all, I am the Luna.”

What I should have been. I felt as if my heart was squeezed within me, but I vowed that Jane's treachery wouldn't go unpunished. Even in death, I would find a way to make her pay.

With a surge of adrenaline, I spat at Jane's feet, defiance burning within me. "You'll pay for this," I whispered, my voice barely audible.
