The Abused Luna's Comeback Novel - Chapter 75
Chapter 75 The Maid’s Thoughts
(Rose’s P.O.V.]
When Edward told me that he would be leaving for England soon, a wave of depression enveloped me. I wouldn’t be able to see him for a week.
“Can’t you just take me with you?” Although I felt that it was a little inappropriate to ask, I did it anyway.
“Babe, you don’t have a passport or a valid visa. I’ll help you apply for those documents once I get back. That way, we can go to many places together, to the sea and the alps too. But for now, I need you to stay at home obediently and await my return. But I know I’ll miss you every day.”
“Fine.”
Edward’s words made me start to yearn for our travels together. I’ve never gone on a long trip with someone I love, not even with my parents. We still had some mysteries to solve, but that didn’t mean we couldn’t enjoy life, right? After dinner, I helped Edward pack some of the things he needed for the trip. Then he went to his office. He said he would be back in his room by 10 o’clock and asked me to wait for him in his room. He wanted us to have some good sex before he left, sex so good that it would be enough to help him last the whole trip without me. I glared at him as he left, grinning.
I was going to watch TV in my bedroom, and then take a shower. Edward said the other members had a TV in their room too. So then why did they need to build a twenty-seater screening room in the basement of the castle?
I started to get bored. None of the channels had anything that interested me. Perhaps it was because my mind wasn’t on the TV. Suddenly, I received a message from Jane.
(Luna, what are you up to?]
[Nothing, just getting bored from watching TV.]
[Come to the entertainment room. Lily is here too. We’re playing billiards.]
[Alright, I’ll be right over.]
By the time I arrived at the entertainment room, I walked into Jane roaring in dissatisfaction.
“Why are you guys beating me up so badly? Are you college students not getting enough homework? Did you have so much time to mingle and hone your skills?”
“Come on, Mrs. Gamma, don’t be a sore loser.”
Lily laughed from the sidelines. It seemed that Jane had lost to her.
“Don’t get too cocky. Look who’s here, our Nine-ball Princess.”
“Luna, where’s Alpha?” asked Ad to me.
“I just helped him pack his luggage for his trip to Birmingham.”
“He’s going to England?”
“Yes, he said a client company had invited him to visit their headquarters.”
“It’s just rare for him to go on a business trip in person. Maybe the other party is a big company.”
I nodded noncommittally. Then, I was quickly invited by Jane to join the battle. I put myself in the form they had taught me before to set up the cue and then kicked things off. Time passed, and I was on the verge of winning. I had been able to hit the corresponding number of balls into my pocket, except for those with very tricky angles.
By the end of it, I had won three games and Lily had only won one. Since I was still supposed to be a rookie at billiards, especially when I had only learned it after joining Sunset Pack, Lily called me a gifted player.
“Is playing billiards also be one of the abilities of a Werewolf of Chaos? I didn’t see you activate anything though. God, can’t you just be fair?”
I simply smiled as Jane chattered away. Obviously, I didn’t have the ability to be a master at billiards, but I knew that being a Werewolf of Chaos meant that I had eagle-like vision that put me at an advantage when playing it. When the billiards party was over, we split up. I left with Jane and Ad, walking back upstairs as we continued talking about the game earlier. We eventually arrived at their room and I bid the couple goodnight before I headed to my room.
As I continued to walk up alone, I saw a baby-faced woman coming down the stairs. It was Christie, the maid who was in charge of cleaning the rooms of the ranked members. For some reason, she seemed a little flustered, as if she didn’t expect to meet me at this time and place.

“Good evening, Luna!”
“Good evening, Christie. What are you doing here so late?”
“Oh, I was on each floor to see if there was any cleaning that needed to be done.”
“Thank you for your hard work. You should return to your quarters and have an early rest.” Christie nodded and brushed past me. But suddenly, a voice came into my mind.
‘Why would Alpha fall for a woman like this? What else could she have besides an attractive face and big breasts? This flirtatious b*tch must have seduced my prince charming.’
“Christie?”
I couldn’t help but call out her name. “Luna, what can I do for you?”
She turned around and looked at me with innocent eyes.
“Nothing.”
I only looked at her for a moment before continuing upstairs.
It seemed that she was one of Edward’s fangirls, which would explain her hatred towards me. If this was New Moon Pack, I would have picked a fight with her. But now I wouldn’t.
I wasn’t used to hearing other people’s voices at first, but after Edward communicated with me through his thoughts a few times, the ability became more familiar to me. Although the majority of the people in the pack treated me with respect, I couldn’t force everyone to like me. I shouldn’t be surprised that there would be those who hated me, just as I hated the New Moon Pack members.
‘What’s this b*tch up to? She scared the sh*t out of me earlier. Hmph! I may never be Luna, but I can still enjoy her life.’ I looked back again, but Christie had already disappeared around the corner of the stairs.
I guessed I overheard her thoughts again. But what did she mean by being able to enjoy what I had?
