The Rejected Luna Queen novel Chapter 129

Alpha Bane's POV

I couldn't believe my ears. The young man didn't only admit to committing such a heinous crime. He claimed to have no remorse for it.

As I kept swinging wildly at him, punching away at his face, something in me told me that the pain that I was inflicting on him was due to something much more than his confession to his crimes.

I couldn't get over the fact that he shared a bed; well, technically a dungeon floor, with a woman I used to share a bed with and he was unashamed to admit it. It was his guts for me. He wasn't even afraid that he was right in front of two Alphas.

The more I thought about it, the more I increased the intensity of my punches. He deserved nothing less than death and I was very much glad to provide it.

Not that it would've helped a great lot but Ivan refused to say a word about the person that sent him despite my best efforts. "Who hired you?" I asked over and over again, but I was met with the same answer. Silence.

"Talk to me, Ivan. Who sent you?" I asked. I needed to beat the answers out of him somehow. He had to give them to me or die by my hands sooner than I had planned. He was going to die anyway.

"Stop it!" The Alpha King yelled from behind me but I wouldn't stop. I just couldn't. It felt so good and I couldn't deny it. I wanted to stop. I said to myself a few times but my hands won't stop.

Soon enough, the Alpha King resorted to pleas as his commands meant nothing to me. Ivan's screams slowly faded into muffled sounds as he had lost a lot of strength.

As I raised my hand to deal a fatal blow to him, with my claws shot out of my hands, I heard a very loud scream in the direction of the entrance to the throne room and I immediately turned to see who it was.

It was Aurora. I couldn't believe it. My hang immediately remained in the air as I froze. I didn't expect her to be there at that time. I didn't know what to say to her as the words eluded me. I could only open my mouth in shock.

I felt the rage inside of me slowly go away. The redness of my eyes became a thing of the past as my eyes got back to normal. I could tell because I couldn't feel that anger in me anymore. Her presence took it all away.

She looked at me with a very strange face causing my face to flush. She looked afraid; terrified even. She was stricken and her legs were shaky.

As our eyes locked together, she opened her mouth like she was going to say something to me but she didn't. Instead, she just kept looking at me in disbelief. Suddenly, she turned her gaze from me to Ivan, whose head I still held with my left hand.

I quickly let go of his head, letting it drop to the ground with a small thud. Then I slowly got up and took a few steps backwards from the man before turning to see how many guards were around.
