His Dark Obsession

His Dark Obsession By Moonlight Muse Chapter 28

28. Vows

EVANGELINE.

I stare at Sinclair, unable to hide my hurt, but it isn’t because of him but because of

the mark that I see on his neck. My gaze goes to the woman next to him. An

arrogant smile crosses her face, as she sits right beside him. It’s none other than Celia, her hand clutching his arms tightly. So, he was going to participate too, and out of everyone, he chose her to

be his Luna? 3

I shouldn’t feel betrayed, but I do.

Sinclair’s eyes fill with a mix of emotions

that I can’t make out.

He wants to take me away to be safe?

Whilst he takes a Luna? Why did he even

look so shocked? Is it because he wasn’t

expecting it to be me beside Zedkiel, or is

it because he doesn’t want me to learn of

him having taken Celia as a mate?

His eyes were questioning me, almost accusing. I want to ask if it is the fact that

seeing someone who actually has the power to keep me by his side as his Luna, not just his side whore, had gotten to him? 5

A low growl leaves Zedkiel’s lips. “If you want to live, keep your eyes off what belongs to me.” He snarls, making the

entire room fall silent.

I look up at him, my heart thumping as I realise my own anger and hurt at seeing the duo together had made me feel so

bitter… But I remember that I’m here

with Zedkiel, and I will help him with his

title, then… I will leave and live my life.

“It’s fine Zedkiel, I’m yours.” I say softly, looking up at him.

His anger seems to calm a little as he looks me in the eye. For a split second, I think I see something more in his eyes, but this is just an act… one we will both carry out. I lean into him, telling myself he won’t bite into me here. I can’t even explain this. I feel protected and scared all at the same time. 1

“Obviously.” He replies coldly, his eyes shimmering red.

We walk down the centre between the few rows of chairs, and Celia purses her lips before smirking as she digs her claws into Sinclair’s arm.

‘Sloppy seconds…’ Her words are still fresh in my mind. There is no way I would ever accept that, especially with her as his Luna. There is no future for Sinclair and me, I see that now. I was stupid to think there ever could be. 4

I see Prince Alcazer there with a woman

that I know by face. She was at my birthday party.

“Step onto the dais, please.” The elder said, bowing to Zedkiel. “Prince Alcazer, Lady Amora, we shall start with you.”

… I know that name… she is the daughter of the Alpha of the Dark Claw Pack,

Lamar Lendorn. Their ceremony and

vows began. The mood was solemn, and I see the Alpha look rather smug as his daughter takes her vows.

The elder offers them a pair of rings which they then exchange, and Amora coyly mentions picking out the ring for Alcazer herself. I could tell he wasn’t as interested in discussing the rings. He is still hurting from the loss of his mate, but I don’t think it was too deep or he wouldn’t be here today, right?

I am brought out of my thoughts when the elder announces Alcazer may kiss his bride. He leans forward, pecking her lips for a fleeting second before he moves away, and everyone claps. The elder then

turns to us.

“Let’s begin.” He says, motioning for us to step forth. Alcazer and Amora step aside as the elder clears his throat. “We

now move on to witness the joining of Alpha Prince Zedkiel Vilkas of the Moonstone Pack and Lady Evangeline

Rose of the Silver Mountain Pack.”

My heart thumps as I look up at Zedkiel who is standing opposite me. I’m glad I have the bouquet in my hand because I wouldn’t know what to do with them.

“Do you, Prince Zedkiel, vow to protect, love, and take care of Evangeline Rose in sickness, health, and distress? Do you vow to take her as your lawful mate and

wife by the oath of Selene?”
