The Perfect Luna novel Chapter 7

Beta Ash was waiting for her at the bottom of the stairs. Not her husband. In a black

tuxedo and offered her his hand when she was close which Ria was reluctant to accept at first.

But she went with it in the end since he hadn’t betrayed her yet. She couldn’t count on him, yea. But she still could change events with him. Or at least give it a try. If the Beta supported her at the Alpha Council when the divorce would take place, everything could go smoothly. It was worth a try.

“Nice dress,” he gave her another compliment and she rewarded him with a brief smile. “Thanks,” they were walking towards the car that was already waiting for them and she frowned when she realised that it was a limo. Meaning that she would have to ride with her husband and Roxy. How unpleasant.

“This is not what you usually wear,” the Beta said, and she looked at him, slightly shocked that he even noticed.

“I am in the mood for some changes, Ash,” Riannon smiled and tilted her head a bit, noticing the werewolf’s eyes get darker. Well, this was new.

He opened the door of the car for her and helped her inside, holding the train of her dress and placing it gently to her feet. Maybe she overdid it a bit? Dancing in that could be problematic. Not that she planned to dance much. Today had a different purpose.

She gave a brief look to Brayden and Roxanne who sat way too close to her liking. And

she even managed to hold back a grin when she saw the omega wearing the tacky peach dress, covered in cheap rhinestones. The colour did not suit her red hair at all and made her look a bit too… orangey.

“Luna,” Roxy greeted her awkwardly, clinging to Bray, while he carefully removed her arms off his and showed her to keep them at her knees. At least he still tried not to be too disrespectful in her presence. If one could say that, of course.

“Ri,” he couldn’t even manage a smile, “You look breath-taking.”

“Thanks,” she managed her own fake smile without any trouble, “Ash here already told me that.”

Heavy silence lingered over all of them as the car drove off.

“Luna,” Roxanne just couldn’t shut up, “The dress you are wearing… It’s truly exquisite.”

“Thank you,” she spared her just one glance, “I guess I do have good taste. Yours is nice too. I hope you enjoyed picking your outfit first.”

“You got to choose first?” Brayden sounded surprised. This wasn’t how the omega told   Because I let you dresses that no one wanted. Which was fine of course, since she didn’t have to give her anything at all.

“Didn’t you know?” Riannon shot her brow up, “Roxy was so emotional when she saw the racks of clothes. I thought it would make her happy to pick whatever she wanted before anyone else since it was her first time and all.”

“Ash, I forgot my clutch in the car,” she smiled at him softly, “Would you be so kind as to bring it to me. My phone is there and I do not want to miss any important calls in case anything happens.”

the room with her own plus one. She needed this shock and pity factor today, so when the servants opened the doors before Brayden and Roxanne, she made sure to follow right after them with her head held high.
