Landons POV
It's been months since Vance took Nadia away from me.
Their not so blissfull marriage has spun over three full moons.
It still did not keep us from seeing each other. We orchestrated things in such a way that Nadia always had the space to slip away from Vance's pack house and walk to kilometres to meet me.
From what I've gleaned from her slip ups and unconscious reactions to when I ask certain things about Vance, their marriage is not going well at all. Save for the sex part. She once called his name while moaning to my strokes. It made me livid as hell, but it's the life we both find ourselves in now. It's left to make the best out of it.
'So what's up with you and Vance now?" I asked her, just after taking my face out of her ass.
'All the blood that rushed down is barely back into your brain." She said pissed and sarcastically. 'Could you chill out till then?" She faced me, looking really angry.
'I mean…" I started, defending myself. 'I'm not the one who pushed you into his hands." I said, knowing that was quite controversial and a very touchy subject.
'Don't fucking say that, Landon." Her tone has risen. 'Don't just dare say that. You did, you freaking did. You treated me like trash, and pushed me to do whatever I could to rewrite my destiny."
'You spin and weave your narratives so well that if I didn't fucking live it, I would believe I am the bad person." I said.
'So who is?" She asked, angrily. 'Tell me who the bad guy is here, ‘cause it's damn sure not me."
'Isn't it too late for all those, Nadia?" I asked her, trying to make her reason. 'Aren't we both still here, now in this moment? Someway, somehow, hasn't it still brought us together, making us closer? Shouldn't we focus on that, and focus on the fact that we are a hair's breadth away from siezing what we've wanted for only so long?" I continued.
'That's the mistake you keep making." She said, with a very proud look on her face. 'You, Landon, you are a hair's breadth away from your dream. I, on the other hand, am already living mine." She narrows her eyelids and stare straight into my eyes. 'Guess who used to be the one getting cheated on? Who was abused and neglected?" She looks very livid, I can nearly see the blazing fire in her eyes. And I know to thread with caution. Whether or not she rides my cock, she is the Luna of Moonstone, and she has to be treated as such.
'I know I hurt you, Dia." I called her by a pet name I used uncommonly. 'But that does not change the fact that our destinies are interwoven. And that is why you still keep…I still keep coming back to you…" I corrected.
'Better." She chipped.
'I've realised my fault…"
'Doesn't change shit." She said.
'It does, it does. Don't be that way." I cajoled her. 'it brings the train back on track." I said.
'What silly train needs to be back on track." She asked, feigning ignorance.
'Us, Nadia, us." I replied her bluntly.
'I think I like how things are." She said, unconceedingly.
'No you don't." I replied. 'You just want to punish me for all I ever did while we were together, and I get that, matter of fact, I'm willing to be punished." I begged her.
'You don't really get to dictate what direction things take these days anymore, Landon." She said to me.
I'm hurt. Very very hurt. I did not see this day coming. Never did. Life has successfully ridden me of every good thing I ever believed should be mine. I sacrificed Talia for this, it's not even the time to back down or out. Nadia's mind is never made up, I'm sure all she needs is a little work, and she'd be back where she left.
'Nadia. Please." I go down on my knees, my hands on her laps sliding up with every word I say.
'Get your hands off me, Landon." She threw my hands off her body and stood up. 'I'm leaving. Vance would be looking by now."
How she mentioned just mentioned bother the Alpha and btas name really struck k something in me. There really isn't much she's looking for anymore. With the Alpha and beta both in love with her, she's the woman every woman envies.
'That's alright." I said to her, letting go of her ' I'll see you later." I said, suggestively.
'Yeah, at pack meetings." She buttressed intentionally. I knew it was just a bluff, but it's a wrong time to call her out because then it would be a dare.
'I love you." I said after her.
'Too late." She said. 'Way to late!" Nadia repeated for emphasis.
'It's never too late." I said and she paused. 'We've all made mistakes. Thankfully those didn't make us derail so much. We are still on track baby. We still are. We can do this. You're angry about a lot of things and that's totally fine, but when you, we, work through it, then we'd see that there still is a way forward, a finer way to getting our dreams." None of us is looking at the the other in the eye. But the perfect silence shows that we both know what I'm saying.
'Landon, just in case this never happens again, know that I love you, and maybe I always will. But I'm hurt, wounded and broken." She said, her head still up strong. 'But I find pleasure in boasting to myself about riding the Alpha and betas cock. I know how that sounds, but I really do not care. For now, I'm all about doing what makes me happy. And if the gamma does, I'll make sure you find me under him." She continued. 'Have a nice life, Landon." Nadia said finally before walking away.
The thoughts in my head are mumbled and jumbled. Is this what would really become of me? Still a bloody beta, but worse, I'm now the side piece of my mate. Things really can not go on this way. Fuck!
