The Luna Queen's Rebirth (Ellie and Dominic) novel Chapter 57

Chapter 57

Vivian POV

I stood there.

Alone. Alone after Dominic – my Dominic-walked away from me like I didn’t exist.

People stared. Whispers spread. Faces turned pitying.

I smiled through all of it. Soft. Sweet. The perfect little victim.

Inside? I was burning.

How dare he.

I watched Dominic grab Lucas like he wanted to snap him in half. I watched Ellie stumble back, wide-eyed

and innocent.

And then-

Then he said it.

He claimed her.

Ellie.

Not me.

For a split second, I forgot how to breathe.

What.

The.

Hell.

I kept my pretty, trembling smile on, because people adore a girl who suffers gracefully, but inside I was one second away from tearing the chandelier down on all three of them.

ľ

She did something to him. She had to. Because Dominic doesn’t lose control like that. He doesn’t claim a girl like her unless she manipulated him.

Especially when he had me.

Ellie jerked her wrist free and snapped at him, stalking off toward the drink table like she wasn’t the reason my entire life just caught fire.

My jaw tightened.

That bitch.

Acting above him when she’s been drooling over him since we were five.

Fine.

My smile sharpened.

If Ellie wants a war…

She just picked the wrong girl to start with.

My gaze slid across the ballroom until I spotted him one of the servers I knew, someone who owed me a favor. A desperate boy with a weak spine and weaker morals.

I drifted toward him with that same perfect porcelain smile.

“Excuse me, sweetheart,” I whispered, batting my lashes, “So sorry to bother you, I need a tiny favor.”

His eyes widened. I was beautiful, of couse.

A little something slipped into Lucas’s and Ellie’s drinks. Nothing dangerous – I’m not a monster. Just something strong enough to get them confused, clinging to each other, stupid enough to ruín themselves.

Because if they’re found together? Like that, Ellie’s reputation will shatter. She’ll be tainted, unfit, unworthy, and candalized beyond repair.

I’m practically doing Dominic a favor. A girl like that would never make it next to him. Ever.

My plan set in motion, I smoothed my dress, reapplied lip gloss, and walked back toward him.

“Miss?” a waiter’s voice cut through the fog. “You don’t look well.”

I dragged my gaze to him, breathing sharp and uneven.

“I-I’m fine,” I lied.

“Here.” He handed me a glass. “Water. Drink.”

I didn’t refuse. The cold slid down my throat, grounding me for half a second.

“Good,” he said softly. “Let me walk you somewhere quiet, You seem like you need it.”

Normally I’d hesitate. Question it. But the world was listing sideways, heat crawling up my spine, and 1 couldn’t think straight. I let him guide me down the hall, each step heavier than the last.

The moment he opened a door, I stumbled inside and collapsed onto the bed. The room spun. My skin felt wrong. Overheated, hypersensitive, like I was drunk but somehow worse.

Then a scent hit me through the pillow.

Warm musk. Something sweet.

Lucas.

My head snapped up. Why did these sheets smell like
