Curse For Alpha: Betrayed Luna
Chapter 26

Audrey took a deep breath and looked at Aldrick's face who had embraced her and hid his face in her neck.

Both of them were silent on the bed as they neutralized their breath. Audrey was silent for a few moments before finally looking at Aldrick's face who had closed his eyes. "I'm going to work."

"No need." Aldrick tightened his embrace and looked at Audrey's face with a serious gaze. "There's no need to work, I told you we have a lot of wealth."

Audrey sighed and shook her head. "I can't suddenly quit either. After all, I've been working here for a few months and I've had enough help from them. The boss is nice too, I don't want to make him feel betrayed."

Aldrick looked at Audrey's face which seemed to be trying to explain. That made him sigh and get up, making Audrey smile softly and get up with a tired feeling lodged in her chest. She was already tired from having intercourse with this man for a long time, but she didn't regret it because Aldrick seemed so adoring and made sure she was completely satisfied.

Audrey walked towards the bathroom to clean herself up before going back to work since she had to leave due to Aldrick's actions. Aldrick walked along, also cleaning up and it made Audrey feel like it was useless for her to tell him not to, he wouldn't listen to her.

"Don't work too hard, at least just finish what you've agreed to today and tomorrow you can ask for a reduction on the work. For the foodstuffs of all your needs can be brought from the clan, you don't need to be confused about what to eat and what to buy using what. I already have many possessions that can be used."

Audrey sighed and decided to keep quiet, refusing was also pointless because this man would definitely not like it if she refuted his words. Just let Aldrick intend to do what he wants, anyway it will end up with an endless argument. After finishing cleaning up Audrey put on her casual clothes and got to work. The two omegas who were currently servants in her house also provided some food that she could eat for distraction while Audrey was working so she felt that it was quite quick to finish although it was quite mind-consuming but Audrey could finish it well.

Aldrick was out at the moment, probably back to his clan and to let Audrey rest in peace that no one would bother her. She was quite tired of what Aldrick was doing so she could only close her eyes and rest without thinking about anything.

"You've regained the power you lost?"

Aldrick nodded and sat on his throne chair before looking at Tommy.

"Luna has also accepted me and forgotten what happened before. I feel very calm now even though Luna doesn't want to come back here with me yet. She's still traumatized by what I did and that's something I should understand well. After all, Luna naturally feels it and she won't believe so quickly in people who have hurt her. Luna's willingness to accept me alone was already a great thing because I had only taken a short time to conquer her. Apparently, Luna had already loved me for a while until now, so when I kept forcing her to accept me she started to be moved and accept me."

Tommy's face looked a little displeased at Aldrick's words. Aldrick realized that because he knew that the citizens liked Luna much more than this useless person. He had made so many people lose respect because of his crimes and actions in the past. So when Tommy heard her talk about it he knew that the man who was supposed to be her assistant was also unhappy because he was worried about Audrey.

"Her heart is too soft, I know that she is too quick to accept me and you are not happy with my words either. But what I am doing is not something that will create the same problems and stories as before. I have no intention of repeating my crimes and mistakes so right now I'm trying my best to make her trust me again.

"I also know that you're not happy Luna accepted me that easily, but it's the truth. I'm already a bit deterred by what happened to me back then and it would be hard for me to do the same thing just to get in trouble again. I realized that other than an eternal partner, there was no one who could be faithful to me. I'll change my habits and I'll try to make things work the way they are. I won't repeat the same mistakes and you can keep your word on that."

Tommy shook his head. "My life will remain the same no matter what you do. But Luna's life can never be the same because she's the one who's going to have it rough. I don't want Tuan to disappoint Luna again, so give her your word for what it is so she might believe it. I have no right to hold your word because even if you were to betray later nothing would happen if I felt betrayed. Luna is more deserving and I ask that you care for her more." Aldrick smiled and nodded, he would never make the same trouble again as before because the curse and torment given by the Moon Goddess made him unable to do anything and just like a useless man.

He couldn't take revenge anyway and now that his strength was back he still remembered his dream of taking revenge on Emely and her group.

"Find a trace of that damn woman," he said making Tommy raise his eyebrows. "It's time for me to reclaim what she took from me because that woman took some of my book collection and also the ancient books given to me by my ancestors. I won't let her take everything from me and can keep holding on to it for now in safety. My strength is back and I will take what she has taken from me and inflict similar torture to what she has done."

Aldrick was unwilling to even mention her name, she had already decided to take revenge and would make that woman show her retribution. Aldrick would not let a single traitor go out and live in peace in his clan, let alone a traitor who had blatantly insulted and destroyed his life.

"You sure you're going to avenge her?" Tommy looked at him doubtfully making Aldrick look at him. "It hasn't been that long and I'm just afraid that you have some residual feelings that will make your intentions fall apart. If you reply to her directly it will only make you remember what you went through with her. Try to reconsider because it might not be as easy as you think."

Aldrick was silent, he looked at Tommy's face with a serious gaze and knew that the man was speaking in accordance with the facts that usually happened. The relationship he had with Emely had not ended long ago. Emely and Aldrick had quite a long story and longer than his relationship with Audrey. Of course, all of that could have made it difficult for Aldrick to avenge her but he had vowed to do so and had to do so anyway.

"Just catch her. Regarding when I will avenge her, I will take care of it later. I have to do it anyway because I've already spoken about it and my oath as a leader must be carried out even if I have to kill the people I love. I don't care, take her to the dungeon with the people who have joined her group. I won't let them live in peace because they are too happy even though they have done evil."

Seeing Aldrick's seriousness in speaking, Tommy finally nodded. He spread the man's orders to the soldiers who became the core soldiers until they were greeted with joy. They had long wanted to take revenge on the person who didn't make them crumble, at this time since there was no sign that the enemy would attack so they would do it first as a surprise.

"After capturing her you must take her and lock her up in the prison that we have prepared. We'll wait for Alpha's next decision on whether to finish her off or execute her."

Aldrick listened to all of Tommy's orders and then closed his eyes and leaned back in the back of his oversized chair. This was the throne chair where he would sit and give orders to all sections of his followers and citizens. Aldrick had been a leader for a long time and now he felt that the decisions he made actually carried considerable influence.

Aldrick would cleanse every thing and every side of those who would destroy and turn out to destroy him. Emely and her group were one of the main targets because the woman had long been a traitor who in fact made Aldrick destroyed and did the wrong thing to Audrey.

"Your heart is very soft, Audrey. So I will take our revenge as your representative. You won't have any trouble because I will do everything, so it will be easier for us to destroy him faster. You just focus on your goal and don't think too much about something that isn't important. I will manage and make this revenge a lesson for myself."

Audrey was innocent because she was the victim of Aldrick's bad deeds. Aldrick was guilty of betraying her and Emily had also been very insolent to her.

All of this was not something arbitrary as he would be more considerate of everything from now on. He would not let her suffer anymore and he would try to give her things that might be useful for the future and what they expected. He now had a son, he had to really pay attention to all the things he was going to decide at this time. Aldrick had felt enough of the hatred and hurt that Audrey felt so he didn't want to do that and get hatred from his own son. He would be more careful and learn more to make good decisions.

Audrey woke up that afternoon and felt much better after she got up and cleaned herself up. There was still no Aldrick and it made Audrey a little unexpected that he would actually leave, especially after what he gave and what he got. "Did I take it wrong? Did I accept it too soon?"

Audrey sighed and closed her eyes. She sat in one of the pantries and waited for her son to come home in a while while thinking about what she had done. Audrey didn't really want to expect much but she still needed to heal her heart after discovering that he wasn't even any different from before until now.

"I should have been more assertive instead of accepting it so quickly. I couldn't fortify myself and was always defeated by my feelings. While he's doing it just for profit. Why am I still so stupid, why have I never done anything more assertive and unapproachable?"

Audrey sighed, she should have realized that the man would never change because his nature had been like that for a long time. Audrey had heard that the term unfaithful man was a hereditary factor so it could actually be something that would cause the same thing to happen again.

"A man who is used to having affairs or relationships with other women and then repents, it doesn't necessarily mean that the cure is something he actually does. It could just be a formality because Aldrick also lost his power. He came here just to get his strength back and after that he will behave like everyone else. Why am I still so stupid?"

Audrey sighed and wiped away tears, smiling softly when she heard the bell ring. Alfan was home so it was time to hide all her feelings and sadness. For the past few days she had lost time with her son, so she needed to get things back to normal.
