Scarlett Rode bit her lips as she angrily chopped the cabbages.
She wiped away the sweat on her forehead with the tip of her apron.
This was the last dish for the party.
The rest had already been packed carefully in coolers and silverware, awaiting the grand party.
Thwack!
A loud slap landed on her back startling her, she immediately turned only to be met with another slap, right on her cheeks.
"You useless woman! It's almost time for the party, yet the food is not ready. I wonder why my son saved a useless runt like you. You should have been left to die in that forest, or better still, ensure you remain a slave, as you rightly are" Jade, the mother of Alpha Reed of the Red Moon Wolf pack, spat.
She was Scarlett's mother-in-law.
She stood with her hands akimbo, waiting to see Scarlet's reaction.
She gritted her teeth and forced a humble smile on her face.
"I'm sorry, it's almost ready" she whispered.
"Hmph!" Jade grunted and waltzed out of the kitchen.
Scarlett clenched her fists angrily, trying to fight the urge to strangle her mother-in-law, Drex,Jenna, and all of them.
'No, not yet' she muttered, trying to calm herself down.
She can't believe that a woman of her status will ever be reduced to this.
She, Scarlett Rode, the legendary war goddess has been reduced to an element of caricature, right in the pack which she was meant to be the Luna.
Here she was in the kitchen, working and slaving her ass out while pushing down the bile in her throat.
She was forced to prepare a feast to celebrate the third anniversary of her mate and his mistress, Jenna.
She was probably the most disrespected and mistreated Luna in the whole universe.
To avoid trouble, she had tamped down her anger and entered the kitchen to prepare a feast to celebrate her mate and his mistress.
She was the Clown, the Luna whom everyone could treat as they pleased.
However, she has no other option than to endure it all until she regains all her powers and expels the poison the dark Lord left in her body.
Red Moon pack was the best place to hide, where her enemies would never look.
"Luna, is the food ready? Lady Jenna is already complaining that her guests will soon be here" A maid informed her, unable to hide the disdain in her eyes.
Even the servants looked down on their 'Omega' Luna, who was the weakest runt they had ever seen.
After she escaped from the dark Lord, she fled blindly.
She collapsed at the borders of Reed's pack and he found her during a patrol.
She was almost dead when he took her to his pack.
His plans to make her one of the slaves of the Red Moon wolf pack immediately changed when she woke up.
He discovered that she was his mate.
However, she was a weak Omega.
Her powers had seeped out after the battle.
Her wolf was severely injured and weakened, in addition to the venom the dark Lord left in her.
However, she was the legendary war goddess for a reason.
She began to slowly heal herself and her wolf.
It was almost done, however, no one needs to know that fact.
When Drex enthroned her as Luna, she had been happy and grateful.
He had saved her life after all.
She decided to let go of her identity as the war goddess and settle down with her mate.
She worked her ass off during the first month, employing all her knowledge to promote Drex's business empire.
At home, she was the general house help who caters to everyone.
However, it only took her six weeks to realize the monster she married.
"Naive, stupid me! I can't believe I thought of abandoning everything to stay with him. Hmph!" Do
Scarlett grunted as she carried the pot down from the fire.
The maids silently joined her to set up the buffet, wondering why such a useless woman was made Luna, despite the fact that the Alpha had no feelings for her.
It was obvious he loved Jenna.
He had been with Jenna for so long, so everyone was confused when he made his weak mate Luna, despite protests from his mother.
"Wow! The war goddess's interview is about to be aired. She finally appeared. It has been one year since she went missing. The war at Blood Moon Wolf pack was devastating. I feel sorry for her. She has lost her entire pack" a maid said excitedly, staring at the huge television set in the hall.
"I rather feel sorry for those that attacked her. Now that they failed to kill her during the first strike, that vicious woman will destroy them mercilessly. I heard it was her closest companions that betrayed her by working with the dark Lord" Jade said, relaxing on the couch.
