Alpha's Lost Luna Returns With His Twins-Chapter 146-Standing Against My Evil Mother

Iris:

"Don’t worry. I’ll find a way to get those things deleted," he said. "And your mother is going to answer to me."

He hissed the words, and I almost spoke something before I stopped.

He scrunched his eyebrows because he noticed.

He leaned forward with hands on his knees and nodded for me to speak.

"I was going to say she deserves whatever is coming to her for doing that to you," I said quietly, referring to the fact that he had not even been aware when it happened.

He shook his head and straightened his back. And then slid his hands into his pockets.

"No. She deserves punishment for hurting you."

My head snapped up, but he had already turned and walked out of the room.

Still, I knew he would not confront her recklessly. At least now, I was not alone.

Luca had been gone for a solid half hour, and at that point, I began to wonder if he had gone out to speak with my mother. That would be bad. She would be very angry if he had. Then the door opened. I instantly got off the bed and faced it.

While he was gone, I had changed into my nightwear, a silk gown with a silk robe over it. I was anxiously cracking my knuckles when he stormed inside, and right away, the look he had on his face devastated me. He was holding a bottle of wine, and it looked like he had already drunk some of it.

"Luca, are you okay?" I asked, trying to reach him, but he suddenly raised his palm and turned his face away from me.

"Why did you not tell me the videos were that graphic?" he whispered, turning his face completely away, and my heart sank in my chest.

"Did you speak with my mother?" I asked, covering my mouth in distress before rushing past him to the door and looking down the hallway.

My eyes landed on my mother standing in her doorway, her arms crossed and an angry look on her face. I turned back to Luca as he lifted the bottle and drank again.

"Luca, what have you done? Why did you speak with her?" I asked, trying to approach him, but every time I did, he stepped away. I hated it because it felt like the weight of the videos had settled on him as well.

"I did not speak with her. She confronted me while I was walking down the hall," he replied, groaning as he took another sip from the bottle.

"You think I was going to hide it from him?" my mother remarked.

Her arrival made my body jolt as I turned to face her. I quickly stepped out of her way while Luca tightened his grip around the bottle, glaring at her as if he might transition and kill her at any moment.

"I showed him the videos, and it seems he was not expecting them to be like this. He thought they would just be his appealing shots," my mother continued, smirking.

"How could you be so full of yourself? You ruined three people’s lives, Mother," I said, shaking as I confronted her.

"I did not. You did," my mother replied, pointing a finger at me, and my eyes widened.

"Really? You are still trying to make it seem like I am the problem?" I asked, pointing at my chest as my voice cracked.

"Are you not? Why did you go behind my back and make out with Kash?" she questioned.

As the words left her mouth, I noticed Luca shift uncomfortably and shake his head slightly.

"Because that is my life. You control everything. You made me come back. You made me face him and his girlfriend. Then you kept forcing me into these situations. You even made me reject him. What else do you want from me?" I screamed, exhausted, tears running down my face.

My mother stormed inside and slammed the door shut, pointing a finger at me to silence me."And yet after such clear instructions, you keep making these mistakes," my mother hissed, coming at me so forcefully that I had to step back.

Luca was quick to move between us, and the look my mother gave him made it clear she did not like it.

"So now you are going to stand between me and my daughter?" my mother asked him, her face starting to turn red. "You have done enough damage to her."

Luca, still holding the bottle by the neck with three fingers, pointed his index finger at my mother.

"The only reason I am silent is because of those videos. I hope you know that," he warned her in his low voice, which sounded almost like a whisper though the tension in his body was visible.

"You are both being dramatic," my mother replied, her tone suddenly changing now that she was being confronted by a man.

"Dramatic?" my voice cracked as I spoke from behind Luca. "Do you have any idea what you have done?"

I could tell my mother had already realized that Luca would not allow her to hit me or even touch me. He looked alert and ready to move at any moment.

"All this noise. At least you know about the videos now, right?" my mother continued. "So how about we settle this? You listen to me, or those videos go out. They will reach the next school your children apply to. They will see what kind of things their mother is involved in. Everyone will see it. And then it will be very easy for the council to hand the children to Kash."

My mother laid out her plan to control me, as if cursing my child was not enough.

"And here is what I have decided for you two," she added. "Since this seems to bother you both so much, how about you get married?"

"No," Luca replied immediately. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂

"Luca, let my daughter decide," my mother told him, smirking at him. The expression was fake, more like an angry glare aimed in his direction.

"She is not the only one whose life is involved here. I get a say too," Luca responded. "And I am telling you now, I am done. I am stepping out of this game."

For the first time, I saw my mother mirror my expression. Fear.

Shock.

And finally defeat.
