Chasing His Kickass Luna Back
Chapter 0384

His eyes narrow, and he stands. He looks much taller now that he’s recovered, and he no longer needs his cane. “Whatever you need to say, you can say it in front of my mate.”

I sigh, straightening my jacket. “Alright, fine,” I say curtly. “Gianna is manipulating you. She's a liar and a cheater, and she'll be your downfall.”

Gianna's eyes flash with anger, but she remains silent, letting me speak.

Ethan's eyes narrow even further, and he takes a step closer to me. “We've been over this, brother,” he says. “You've got it all twisted.”

I take a step closer to him as well, lowering my voice to a tone that's barely above a growl. “Ethan, you've only heard her side of the story,” I insist. “And you're refusing to hear what really happened. The “cheating’? Gianna orchestrated all of that. She only ever wanted to become the Luna, and now she’s using you for that goal.”

Ethan frowns deeply, the lines in his face turning just a shade darker with the expression. “I believe you're mistaken, Karl,” he hisses. “I know my own mate. She would never do that.”

I can't believe how blind he's being, how easily he's taking her side. “Ethan, you have to believe me. She's not who she appears to be. I know her better than anyone, and I've seen the lengths she'll go to for power. You'd really side with her so willingly over your own brother?”

Gianna finally speaks up, her voice icy. “Karl, you're just bitter because things are rocky between you and Abby. You're trying to ruin our relationship out of jealousy,” she says. “And besides..." She scoffs. “You're not Ethan's real brother.”

I turn to face her, my anger bubbling up. “No one asked you,” I hiss. “And you don't know the first damn thing about Abby, nor do you know the first thing about our family.”

Ethan steps between us, his face flushed with anger. “That's enough, Karl,” he says, his voice cold. “I won't forgive you so easily for trying to ruin my relationship. Leave. Now."

I can't believe what I'm hearing. My own brother, choosing Gianna over me. It's like he's under some sort of spell, and I can't break through to him.

Without another word, I turn on my heel and storm out, ignoring Gianna'’s triumphant smirk boring into the side of my head. It's a chilling feeling, and it confirms my worst fears—that my own brother, the man who I've looked up to for years, is being blindly manipulated by a woman he barely knows. I walk away from Ethan's house, my anger and frustration simmering beneath the surface. Once I'm back in my car, the first thing I do is pull out my phone and dial Sarah with a new resolve in my mind.

“Sarah, we need to schedule the volunteering you suggested,” I say as I drive away, leaving no room for preamble. “I want to boost my approval ratings as soon as possible.”

Her voice comes through the phone, confident and reassuring. “Of course, Karl. I'll get right on it. We'll show them what you're made of.”

As I hang up the phone, my determination only grows stronger. I can't let Ethan be the Alpha if he's so easily swayed by his new girlfriend. Ill do whatever it takes to win this election and protect our pack from the threat Gianna poses.

This is far from over, and I won't rest until I've exposed Gianna for who she truly is and reclaimed my brother from her clutches.
