Casey’s POV
“Do you really believe that Zora and I couldn’t have beaten our assailants?” I questioned her while giggling.
“She is a genuine warrior, a Luna. Although she is a member of the Delta breed, Lori, she is no match for your alpha wolf. Together, Zora and I have overcome packs and survived storms. We possessed great power. Lori, Zora was at my side, so I didn’t have to fight your father by myself. Do you know why she battled, planned, organized, and sacrificed everything to make sure we reached the top?” She gave me a head shake in response when I inquired.
“Your father murdered her parents, so I vowed to humiliate him, he is aware of this, which is why he has remained silent. Do not imagine that Hand’s soldiers had a chance to defeat Zora and I since we decided to lead the East and succeeded in doing so. Zora left because of you,” I responded, making her lower her head and started to sob.
“You desired to be head Luna of the East so much that you failed to look up the qualifications,” I remarked to her, feeling utterly irritated now that Sage didn’t intervene.
“She has moved on and forgave everyone. Why can’t you?” she whispered softly, then I could hear her wolf calling to Sage as it surfaced.
When matters between Lori and me grew heated, Arla always had the habit of calling on Sage, so this happened to be one of those occasions. But Sage continued to keep his word and didn’t say anything.
“Zora is free to move on since she is no longer required to share your home or wake up next to you. You, Lori, stand for everything that goes wrong in my life. Since you destroyed my house with falsehoods, I will

never be able to love you. I don’t understand why your father would support you in this way. Did he not care about you enough to want you to find the right man for you? Instead, he assisted you in breaking into my house to take my wife’s place as my mistress. If I didn’t know him, I’d say he didn’t father you,” I told her, as she stared at me and tears began to pour heavily down her cheeks. Her eyes were unstable, as if a buried scar had been exposed.
I could see a troubled expression in Lori’s eyes as she fixed her gaze on me. something that hinted at buried suffering.
It had always been there, but I had too much on my mind to ask her about it. also I believed my hurt outweighed whatever internal conflict she might have been experiencing, but now it had returned.
While discussing her genuine motivations and the life she had forced me to live as a result of her acts, the haunting expression reappeared. She developed a gloomy visage and appeared to be in pieces. After taking a long breath, Lori glanced at me and sighed.
“You don’t know how I feel, Casey. Even if you think it is annoying, you are the most wonderful thing that has transpired to me in a while, so that is why I cling around,” she stated, but I could only chuckle. The time when I was moved by such words was long gone.
“Lori, I don’t want you to hang on any longer. I urge you to go,” I whispered, then she bent her head.
“Fine, I will depart in the morning,” she responded, sounding resigned, while I smirked.
“Yes, you will, once you tell me everything about you and your father planned. How you assisted him in planning the assault that led to the arrival of Hand’s soldiers and how you gave him intelligence that destroyed and split the East. Facts that have led some to question my leadership. How you attempted to aid him in retaking control of the East,” I stated, making her eyes widened and started crying.

“Casey, I would never treat you that way,” she remarked while looking terrified.
“I couldn’t trust you. You made false statements about me and Zora in his defense, so don’t you dare,” I responded, then she shook her head.
“Casey, I can never assist my father in any way. I can’t. Never will I attempt it. Never did I stay with him. I constantly tried to find an excuse to live separately from him. Did you ever inquire as to why?” she inquired, but I was unconcerned.
“He murdered my mother in front of me and would have murdered me as well if I hadn’t vowed to keep quiet about it. She opposed something he was preparing, so he used Silver to stop her heart. I honestly don’t recall the specifics, but I believe it has something to do with the deadly incident in the East that killed many lives. She promised to write Collier Hand and denounce his behavior, so he stabbed her in retaliation. He stabbed her because she labeled him a tyrant. My brain has not forgotten the memory I am never able to assist him in any way. Due to my wanting to get rid of him. I agreed to his deception. It was preferable to become your mistress than his child.” I paid attention to what she said.
“So, why did you give him details of my dealings? Why did you assist him in spying on me?” I shouted at her, furious.
Whether or not her tale was accurate, I was furious that she thought by telling me about it, I would feel bad for her. I despised her.
“How come you did it?” When I questioned her, she lowered her head in
sorrow.
“Casey, I didn’t have any option.” Even though I was furious, I wanted her to be innocent, so hearing her confess it crushed my heart and made me feel foolish. Sage started to snarl too.
She rose from the bed, knelt down and exposed her neck to the.
