The Sweetest Batrayal : Leave Me, Alpha!

Gabby

"I accept your offer to leave this place. Please make all the arrangements, Beta Jackson." My hand clutched the phone tightly, and the tears I’d been holding back finally spilled.

"I finally got the old Gabby back. Alright, I’ll prepare everything within a week," said Beta Jackson—my longlost cousin who recently returned and brought clarity into my life. Clarity strong enough for me to make this decision.

After five years of being bonded to Alpha Alan, I decided to sever our mate connection—after discovering he had been cheating on me with Alice, my own stepsister.

"Not so loud, Alpha Alan. You don’t want everyone in this place to hear our steamy little love session, do you?" Alice’s voice rang out, tangled in moans of pleasure.

It felt like a blade had sliced straight through my chest. Seeing Alpha Alan tangled in bed with Alice—in our bed—shattered my world. I wanted to deny it. I tried. But how could I, when they were saying my name midact?

"When will you reject Luna Gabby and finally make me the Luna of this pack, baby?"

"A week from now. I’ve planned everything for our fifthanniversary celebration. I’m sure the news will make it unforgettable—for her."

I couldn’t breathe. I collapsed onto the floor as I watched them, tangled in sweat and sin.

[Don’t let him break us, Gabby.] Eve, my wolf, whispered, her voice barely audible in the chaos of my mind.

I forced myself to stand. My face soaked in tears, I walked the hall to Elder Roland’s quarters. I would ask him to break our mate bond.

I wouldn’t let Alan and Alice destroy me like this. They had no right. I didn’t care about the Luna title anymore. All I wanted was to rip this pain from my chest and disappear.

In one week, Beta Jackson would take me away from here—for good. I would vanish, not just from Alpha Alan’s life, but from this pack that had given me nothing but its cruelest memories.

And then, the day finally came...

“You look stunning tonight, darling,” Alpha Alan said as he approached me. “Happy anniversary.” He pulled something from his suit pocket and handed it to me—a small gift box.

Inside it was an emerald ring, supposedly passed down from the pack’s second Luna—a gift I had dreamed of for so long.

I had been preparing all day for our fiveyear anniversary. I’d already imagined the diamond ring I’d glimpsed in his jacket the night before, now wrapped around my left ring finger. Smiling at the mirror, I convinced myself Alpha Alan truly loved me.

He held my hand as we descended the grand staircase of the pack house. All the guests turned to smile at us. Then it happened.

“You look stunning tonight, darling,” he said again.

Alpha Alan pulled out the small velvet box. I assumed it was the emerald heirloom—it was in the same case, after all.

Reality slapped me hard across the face.

I had been so foolishly confident that I was the only Luna in his heart.

But it wasn’t the heirloom. It wasn’t the diamond either.

I stood frozen as Alpha Alan gently took my hand and slipped a ruby ring onto my finger, pressing a soft kiss to the back of my hand.

“Congratulations, Luna Gabriella!”

“How sweet! What a lovely gift!”

The crowd’s cheers forced me to offer a stiff smile. I turned back to Alan.

“Do you like it?” he asked.

I gave a dumb nod, my mind racing. Why the ruby? Who was the diamond ring really for?

Then I saw her—Alice. Walking through the crowd with her signature smug smile. She handed me a small gift. But I wasn’t looking at the box—I was staring at her fingers.

The diamond ring was on her left hand.

Just a month ago, Alan told me that ring didn’t suit me—the diamond was "too pale."

And I believed him.

I saw him watching her—tracking Alice with his eyes—even as he stood next to me. Then his phone rang. He answered, then looked at me with feigned urgency.

“Sweetheart, a pack emergency just came up. I have to go, but I won’t be long. I’ll be back before midnight, I promise.”

Before I could say anything, he kissed my cheek and rushed off, leaving me to deal with nosy guests who praised his dedication to the pack.

Celebrating a mate bond anniversary alone might be the most pathetic thing I’ve ever done. I found myself standing on the balcony, hugging myself against the bitter winter wind. But even that cold couldn’t compare to the ache inside me.

I felt hollow—until a notification buzzed on my phone.

It was from Beta Alice.

I hesitated, then opened the message. My breath caught in my throat.

Photos. Videos.

Alan wasn’t dealing with any emergency.

He was in bed with Alice again, asleep beside her. His mark was fresh on her neck.

My hands trembled as I examined the background. I knew that room. I knew it too well.

I ran. Straight to our master bedroom.

I didn’t even need to open the door fully—my ears picked up everything. The moans. The filthy whispers. My heart shattered completely.

I pulled out my phone and hit record. I wanted proof—something undeniable. Something no lie could cover.

Now I had it.

They couldn’t deny it anymore.

Their little act was over.

My hands covered my mouth as sobs spilled from me. I ran back to the balcony, collapsed to the floor, and cried like a fool.

How could he? After five years together, how could Alpha Alan betray me like this—with my own sister, in our home, for Moon Goddess knows how long?

They were monsters.

My entire body shook. I couldn’t even hold onto my phone properly. My tears kept flowing, and I wiped my cheeks in frustration.

No more. I wasn’t going to be the foolish girl clinging to the title of “Luna” anymore.

Screw the Council. Screw the title. The truth was, I was never the Luna in his heart.

And now, I was going to Elder Roland—to return that cursed title and leave this pack behind.

Forever.

Gabby

The next morning, I heard familiar laughter coming from the kitchen. The sound of Alice and Alan cooking and laughing together made my skin crawl. Even after I stood silently in the doorway for several minutes, they didn’t notice me.

Their behavior was so natural—like a couple who’d done this a hundred times before. I felt sick watching Alan feed Alice a piece of raw, stillbloody meat, like two teenagers madly in love. I sighed, memories of last night crashing back—the sharp contrast between then and now twisted in my chest.

Alice turned around, casually setting down the meat in her hand. Blood dripped from her long fingernails, but I kept my expression blank, refusing to let her get under my skin.

“Oh, Luna Gabby,” Alice said sweetly. “I made breakfast for Alpha Alan. You should try it too.”

She glanced at Alan with a coy smile. “When I stopped by to drop off those important documents, he mentioned he was starving. I just wanted to help out with your responsibilities. You don’t mind, do you?”

Beta Alice looked back at me with a faint, knowing smirk. “I also made him a fresh vegetable salad. He absolutely loves my salads,” she added, as if marking her territory.

Her behavior made me nauseous. She acted like she owned the place—like I was the guest and she was the hostess, graciously welcoming me in.

“It’s fine. I’m skipping breakfast. I’d probably throw up.” I couldn’t help the bite in my tone.

“Oh, come on. There’s wolfmary soup too. Alpha Alan loves it. You should add it to your regular meals. I’ll give you the recipe—I'm sure he’ll fall in love with your cooking,” she said with a sugary smile.

It sounded harmless, but her words lit a fire inside me.

Alpha Alan walked over and wrapped an arm around my waist, playing the part of the perfect partner. I wanted to scream.

“You should really try your sister’s salad sometime,” he said casually. “It’s delicious.”

I pulled away from him as smoothly as I could and offered a cold, sarcastic smile. Without touching a single dish Alice had prepared, I walked to the fridge, grabbed a carton of cold milk, and drank it straight from the bottle.

“I’m done.” I tossed the empty carton into the trash, then turned to Alan.

“Can you take me to get my visa renewed, Alpha Alan?”

He raised an eyebrow, eyeing me with that same warm gaze—the one that used to melt my heart. Who would've guessed a man with eyes that gentle was faking every ounce of love he ever claimed to feel for me?

“Of course,” he replied.

“And after that…” I let the sentence trail as I stepped closer to him, even though the very act made my skin crawl. “Can you accompany me to see Elder Roland?”

His brow lifted again, but before he could ask anything, I explained further.

“I have a small matter to discuss with him, sweetheart. And I’m sure if you take me, Elder Roland will prioritize the meeting. Only you can make that happen for me.” I forced a sweet tone into my voice, burying the nausea rising in my throat.

I smiled—barely. My plan was already clear. I was going to expose everything—every betrayal by Alpha Alan and Beta Alice—to Elder Roland.

But before I could say another word, a loud scream rang out, cutting through the room like a knife. Alan and I turned at once, startled.

Alpha Alan ran into the guest room and reappeared seconds later, carrying Beta Alice in his arms. Her face twisted in pain—but just before he turned, I saw it.

She smirked at me.

“Beta Alice was injured by a silver utensil,” Alan said. “I need to take her to the Pack Hospital. Sorry, Luna—you’ll have to go alone.”

And with that, he grabbed his keys and left without another word. He didn’t ask for my input. Didn’t even look back.

I watched him walk away, knowing now with certainty: I was never his priority. I never mattered—not like she did.

I’d known deep down. I was never the one he chose. I was always the one left behind.

I remembered how he used to shower me with gifts and let me spend freely on his black card. I told him I didn’t want luxury, but he’d always insisted he loved doing those things for me. Five years of loyalty and love, repaid with betrayal.

My heart felt shattered. There was no coming back from this. The pain was real, raw, and final. Love? I didn’t believe in it anymore.

I didn’t care what came next. I went straight to Rudolf—one of the few humans I could rely on to help with personal documents. We sat down together, the paperwork already spread across the table.

“Can you process these quickly, Rudolf?” I asked.

“Of course, ma’am. Everything will be ready within twentyfour hours.”

“Thank you, Rudolf. I always knew I could count on you.”

He’d helped me with so many bureaucratic tasks—always professional, always discreet.

I glanced at something in his left hand, curiosity sparking.

“What’s that document you’re holding, Rudolf?”

He smiled faintly. “It’s a request to change someone’s identity.”

“Can you do it for me?” I asked without hesitation. He nodded.

“Do whatever it takes,” I told him, voice firm. “I don’t care about the cost. Just get it done—fast.”

Gabby

After taking care of my visa and changing my identity, I purposely stayed away from Alpha Alan’s pack for a few days. I needed peace—something to keep me busy, so my life wouldn’t be consumed by the growing hatred inside me. Eventually, though, I decided to return, just to pack up the rest of my things before I left for good.

My steps halted automatically when I overheard faint voices coming from one of the rooms. They were talking about me—and not kindly.

“Apparently, Luna Gabriella forgot that Alpha Alan’s matebond with her was purely formal. Isn’t that embarrassing?” one voice sneered, followed by an insincere laugh. Another chimed in, “Instead of being embarrassed, I just feel sorry for her. She’s clearly obsessed with becoming the perfect Luna for Alpha Alan.”

My fists clenched tightly, and just before I could walk in, another voice struck a deeper nerve.

“If only Alpha Carlos were still here, he would have ripped out Alpha Alan’s heart for hurting his beloved cousin.”

“But we all know Alpha Carlos is gone. That means Luna Gabriella is completely finished now.”

Their words weren’t wrong. Alpha Carlos had been the only one who truly protected me before he suddenly disappeared.

“Why should we pity Luna Gabriella anyway? She’s a barren Luna—she can’t even give Alpha Alan an heir. Honestly, I think she deserves this.”

I shoved the door to the private lounge open wide. The room instantly fell silent. A few omegas stood frozen, and Beta Alice gave me a smug, satisfied smile—as if she’d been expecting me to hear every word. Out of the corner of my eye, I noticed Alpha Alan quickly drop the arm that had just been wrapped around Alice’s shoulders and hurried to approach me.

“Luna Gabby, you’re back?” Beta Alice greeted sweetly. “You’ve been so busy these past few days.”

I held my breath and forced a smile. “Yes, I’ve had social commitments that kept me occupied.” My voice was even, calm—every ounce of emotion buried deep. I wouldn’t give her the satisfaction of seeing me break. “Anyway, I’ll excuse myself.”

I turned and walked to my room, but Alpha Alan followed close behind.

“Wait, Luna Gabby,” he called. I stopped, and he reached for my waist. “You haven’t come home on time in days. Are you really busy—or just avoiding me?”

“I’ve been busy,” I replied curtly. “And haven’t you? Managing the pack and… Beta Alice?”

“Come on, Alice has been unwell. If I don’t take care of her, who will? Besides, you’ve been gone too.”

I let out a bitter smile. “Exactly. I’ve had my own responsibilities—community work and visa matters,” I said, laced with sarcasm.

“You’re still mad because I didn’t go with you for the visa paperwork?” he guessed.

“Of course not, Alpha Alan. It’s about priorities, isn’t it? Yours are the pack and Beta Alice. Mine are my visa and social causes.”

“You’re shutting me out, Luna Gabby. Don’t you see how exhausted I’ve been?” he snapped, anger creeping into his voice. “I need you here. I need to come home to your smile, your arms, my dinner, my clothes, everything ready. But all you ever do is focus on your own things.”

And now I understood. In Alpha Alan’s eyes, I wasn’t a Luna—I was just an omega dressed in Luna’s skin. Not a partner. Not an equal. Just a servant in silk.

“Fine. Let’s not argue about this anymore. Come with me tomorrow to the Alpha Council’s charity event. Beta Alice will be there too.”

“How noble. Isn’t she still injured from that deadly weapon?” I replied coldly.

“She’s my personal assistant. This is important for me too.”

I took a deep breath and gave him a long, icy stare. “Then go with Beta Alice. I have other things to attend to that I can’t postpone.”

I stepped into my room, slammed the door, and locked it behind me. My emotions were burning hot, and my resolve grew stronger than ever—I had to find Alpha Carlos.

The next day, to my dismay, I discovered that the charity event I had scheduled was now merged with the Alpha Council gathering. Which meant I had no choice but to face Alpha Alan and Beta Alice.

There I stood, like some fool of a Luna, as Alpha Alan continued to cling to Beta Alice with sickening affection in full view of everyone.

“Incredible, isn’t she?” someone whispered behind me. “Luna Gabriella really is something—watching her Alpha flirt so openly with another woman, and she just takes it.”

A sudden ringtone snapped me out of my thoughts. It was a call from Rudolf. A flicker of hope stirred within me.

“Yes, Rudolf? What is it?”

“I have good news. All the documents you submitted are ready. You can come and collect them.”

"Oh, Luna Gabriella. I'm so glad you made it to the event," Beta Alice greeted me with that overly sweet smile she always wore. "What a perfect coincidence."

I caught the bite in her words, but I chose not to react. She was baiting me—and I refused to take it. I was just about to walk away when she grabbed my wrist.

"Luna Gabriella, won’t you stand beside Alpha Alan for his speech?" she asked again, this time louder, drawing more eyes toward us.

"What do you think you’re doing? Let go of me, Alice!"

I yanked my hand free with force. My elbow bumped into a tray carried by an omega, sending glassware crashing to the ground. Red wine splashed across the floor, and guests stepped back to avoid the mess.

And then, Beta Alice’s little performance began. She staggered toward me dramatically and let out a soft growl. Her hands clutched at her winestained gown.

“No! My dress... my palm...” she whimpered, eyes glistening as she looked at me like I was the villain and she, the delicate victim.

Pathetic.

I clenched my fists, swallowing my fury. I wouldn’t let her humiliate me again.

“I know you’re angry with me for accompanying Alpha Alan tonight,” she said, her voice trembling with artificial guilt. “I know I may have overstepped, but this? You’re being cruel. You hurt me!”

My blood boiled at her theatrics. I took a step forward, ready to slap her smug face. But Alpha Alan intervened—of course he did. He stepped between us, his face twisted with fury.

“What the hell is this, Luna Gabby? You’re acting like a tyrant. Is this how a Luna should behave? You’ve embarrassed yourself!”

I froze.

Again, Alpha Alan defended her. Again, he raised his voice at me in front of everyone—as if I was nothing.

As if I wasn’t his mate.

As if I had never mattered at all.

My phone buzzed. A call from Rudolf. Hands trembling, I answered.

“Yes, Rudolf. I’ll meet you shortly to pick up the documents.”

I ended the call and turned back to face Alpha Alan, my disappointment now a firestorm in my chest.

“I embarrassed you?” I laughed—hard. Then I crossed my arms and stared him down. “And what about you? Parading around with Beta Alice like you’re a mated pair. You don’t think that’s humiliating?”

“She’s just my personal assistant,” he snapped.

“Then tell me the truth, Alpha Alan,” I stepped closer, raising my chin to meet his eyes, “about everything you and your precious Beta have been hiding from me.”

“Don’t test me, Luna...”

“All the secrets. Every dirty little thing you’ve kept from me.”

His Alpha aura lashed out like a whip. “I don’t owe you an explanation. Return to your quarters, Luna Gabby.”

That look in his eyes—cold and final—was all the confirmation I needed.

I turned and walked away from that wretched celebration.

Back home, I opened my laptop and pulled up the security footage—the one I hadn’t dared to watch before. I scrubbed through each second, each frame. And there it was.

Their betrayal.

Their hands. Their lips. Their bodies. Every corner of my home had become their playground.

Alpha Alan—the man chosen by the Moon Goddess as my fated mate. The man who was supposed to be my other half.

Had betrayed me.

With my own sister.

The soul bond that tied us now felt like a noose pulling me into the abyss.

And then her voice echoed in my mind:

"I bet that barren little thing can’t even satisfy you at night, can she?"

Alice’s sicklysweet tone, followed by Alpha Alan’s eager reply, crushed me.

Tears streamed down my face. I had been such a fool.

Their betrayal didn’t just break my heart—it shattered my spirit, my mental strength, even my physical being. My wolf clawed inside me, wild with rage and grief, howling to be let out, to tear them apart.

But I forced her down.

“Not yet,” I whispered to her. “Not until I have everything I need.”

I needed more than rage. I needed undeniable proof—not just for myself, but for the pack. For the Elders. They had to see who Alpha Alan truly was beneath his polished lies.

The footage became too much. I slammed the laptop shut. Then I hurled it across the room. My chest ached.

“It’s over,” I whispered.

And I meant it.

The next morning, I walked into Alpha Alan’s study. His scent still lingered in the room, masculine and commanding. But underneath it, hers clung—Beta Alice. A mockery of the life I had fought for.

I smiled bitterly at the irony.

I placed a small box on his desk—filled with the remnants of a love he’d destroyed. Pieces of our bond that could never be mended, no matter how many times someone tried.

“To the couple who were never meant for me,” I murmured. “Congratulations. You’ve won. You’ve broken me.”

Then I found an old photo album—full of memories that now felt like someone else’s life. I tucked it under my arm. Alpha Alan didn’t deserve to keep any part of what we used to be.

That’s when I heard the door open.

“Luna Gabby, what are you doing in here?” his voice cut through the silence.

I didn’t turn to look at him. “Just tidying up your office,” I said coolly.

His footsteps crept closer. The tension hung heavy in the air.

“What’s this?” he asked, eyes narrowing as he spotted the brown folder in my hand.

Evidence.

Everything.

I turned and met his gaze headon. I wouldn’t flinch. Not this time.

“Just garbage,” I lied. “I was on my way to toss it out.”

And I left.

I drove straight to Elder Roland’s estate. Now I stood in the grand hall, breathing hard, every step weighed down with pain, anger, betrayal—and purpose.

Elder Roland approached with his usual imposing grace.

“Luna Gabriella,” he said, clearly surprised. “What an unexpected visit. How may I help you?”

I walked toward him, held out the brown folder, and said with unwavering resolve—

“I want to sever my bond with Alpha Alan, Elder Roland.”

Gabby

Elder Roland opened the brown folder I’d handed him and skimmed through it in silence. His face was unreadable, those dark eyes quietly observing. Then, he looked up and fixed his gaze on me.

Nervousness crept into my chest. I was afraid he wouldn’t believe me—or worse, that he would blindly defend Alpha Alan right in front of me.

“I acknowledge your complaint, Luna Gabriella,” he said, voice steady. “But everything that’s happened requires process. I will bring this matter to the Elders and seek a resolution. I must also speak directly to Alpha Alan.”

Relief swept over me. For the first time in a while, I felt a sliver of hope. Maybe, something would change.

“For now, go back and clear your heart of this sorrow. Believe me—no honorable Luna deserves to be treated that way.”

“Thank you, Elder Roland,” I replied softly.

As soon as I returned home from Elder Roland’s place, I found Alpha Alan already waiting for me. Without a word, he pulled me into his arms, gripping my hands tightly.

“I’m sorry, Luna Gabby,” he said, voice trembling. “I regret everything I did. Please… give me a second chance. I’ll change, I swear. Don’t sever our bond.”

I didn’t have the energy to argue. I just wanted peace. So, I faked a nod—just enough to convince him. His eyes lit up immediately, full of naive hope.

“Does that mean you forgive me?”

I nodded again, my face expressionless. Even the smile I gave him was icecold.

“Then… we can sleep in the same bed again, right?” he asked eagerly.

“No,” I said flatly. “Just get some rest. I’m tired.”

I walked into my room and shut the door behind me. Then I stood there for a moment, letting silence wrap around me. I had made my decision. This would be my final memory here.

I began packing. Quietly. Carefully.

He needed to know how it felt… to be left behind. To be abandoned. I wanted him to taste that same emptiness he’d gifted me all this time.

The next morning, I acted as if everything was normal.

I prepared everything for him—his breakfast, his clothes, even warm bathwater. When he saw me sitting calmly at the dining table, his eyes gleamed with delight. He rushed over and sat across from me, holding my hands again.

But I gently pulled my hand away, pretending I was about to eat.

“You did all this?” he asked, surprised.

“Yes. Just for you.”

“You always understand me, Luna Gabby. Thank you.”

I almost laughed—but only inside.

I ate slowly, savoring my little performance. Then I raised a brow as Beta Alice appeared.

“You look adorable, Luna Gabriella,” she chirped. “I thought you two were still fighting.”

“Of course not,” I said smoothly. “Would you like to sit and join us? There’s plenty to enjoy.”

I stood from the table. “If you’ll excuse me, I have something to take care of.”

Back in my room, I saw the call I’d been waiting for—a number I hadn’t saved on purpose.

Finally.

“Gabby, are you ready?” came the voice on the other end.

“I’m more than ready, Alpha Carlos,” I said firmly.

I peeked out the door. Coast was clear. Alpha Alan and Beta Alice had already disappeared from the dining room. The silence was perfect.

I didn’t care what they were doing anymore.

My only goal… was to leave.

I grabbed my suitcase and slipped out, heading straight for the airport.

As I walked, I glanced down at my phone and my new ID card.

Goodbye, Gabriella.

From now on, you're reborn—new, untouchable. No one will ever hurt you again. Not Alpha Alan. Not Beta Alice.

Not anyone.

Alan

It was late when I returned home. I had a bouquet of white lilies—Gabby’s favorite. Along with me, I carried a beautiful ring she’d been eyeing for months.

But something was off. The house was quiet. Too quiet.

Only the Omegas were around. No Gabby.

“Luna Gabby? Where are you?” I called out, loudly enough for her to hear.

Nothing.

I set the bouquet down on the table and rushed toward her private bedroom.

My heart dropped. Empty.

Her scent was fading. Her things—gone. Every last one of them.

Panic surged through me.

I stormed through every room, shouting her name, but she was nowhere to be found.

I turned to one of the Omegas. “Have you seen Luna Gabby?”

She blinked. “I don’t know, Alpha. Wasn’t she just having breakfast with you this morning?”

Damn it!

I stumbled toward the trash bin, something catching my eye—ashes, still warm. Next to them, on the nightstand, sat a short letter. A few of Gabby’s personal belongings were stacked beside it. Items I had gifted her over the years.

My blood ran cold. My chest felt like it was being ripped apart.

I picked up the letter.

To an Alpha who was never worthy of me—Happy Rejection Day.

So few words…

And yet they hit harder than any battle wound I’d ever suffered.

I screamed, slamming my fists against the table beside me, clawing at the surface like a madman.

This isn’t real. This can’t be happening.

“Gabby! Why… why would you do this to me?!”
