Chapter10 The announcement of our marriage sent the media into a whirlwind of speculation .
Every outlet clamored to reveal the enigmatic Luna Elenas true identity .
Photos from the island were plastered across screens , with headlines endlessly questioning : Is Luna Elena really Luna Camille ? But Alpha Xavien had meticulously planned everything , ensuring no evidence would surface .
That didnt deter Alpha Thomas , though .
Word quickly spread about him frantically mobilizing his men , issuing orders to track me down .
People saw him pacing outside his office , barking at his staff , his desperation evident in every chaotic gesture .
Yet I 1/8 Chapter10 + 5 Points remained unconcerned ; Alpha Xavien had already prepared for this scenario .
One evening , as Alpha Xavien and I sat on the balcony gazing out at the endless ocean , his phone rang .
He glanced at the screen ⚫ and smirked .
Well , well .
Speak of the devil .
Who is it ? I asked , already suspecting the answer .
Its Alpha Thomas , he replied , putting the call on speaker .
Alpha Xavien answered with his usual composed confidence .
Hello ? What the hell are you doing with my Luna ? Alpha Thomass voice was sharp , desperate , and brimming with rage .
Unruffled , Alpha Xavien leaned back in his 2/8 Chapter10 + 5 Points chair .
Im afraid youre mistaken .
My Luna is Elena Bell , and Luna Camille is dead .
Shes not dead ! Alpha Thomas shouted .
I know its her .
Dont play games with me , Alpha Xavien .
Ill find her .
Alpha Xavien raised an amused eyebrow at me , silently saying , Your move .
I leaned in closer to the phone , my smile icy .

Camille , if youre listening please , listen to me .
Alpha Xavien isnt who you think he is .
Hes not the right choice for you .
I know I messed up , but Ill make it right .
Just come back to me .
His words , dripping with desperation , were almost pitiful .
Alpha Thomas , I said , my voice steady and 3/8 Chapter10 + 5 Points sharp , youre pathetic .
And for the record , Im not Luna Camille .
Im Elena Bell .
Your mate is dead .
Before he could respond , I hung up and tossed the phone onto the table .

That was cold .
He deserves worse , I said simply , reclining in my chair .

You sure ? 4/8 Chapter10 + 5 Points I smiled .
Its time to show them were not hiding .
After our island honeymoon , we returned to Alpha Xaviens estate .
The sprawling mansion was as grand as I had imagined , with its marble floors , towering ceilings , and walls adorned with priceless art .
