Selene POV
My throat constricted as tears filled my eyes. Brooke was right… at that moment, I felt like a FOOL!
I watched as everyone in the room kept going back and forth about a secret with a sense of bewilderment that was rapidly evolving into outrage. When I agreed to marry Noah, I had hoped and thought he would be different, that for the first time, he would see me and I'd be noticed but as usual, I was wrong.
All my dreams about being an ornamental Luna shattered once more in front of me as my gaze shifted from Noah to everyone else in the room. I was the stranger… the one that didn't belong here. The single mom… the slut… the thief…
If I mattered so much… If Noah considered me his queen, would he not tell me even the hardest truths? When you love someone, you don't protect them by telling them lies… you bare the truth in front of them and together, you fight until you right the wrong.
