Chapter 184: She Wasn’t Ready
The only sound was the frantic thudding of her heart.
Did she truly say all that?
That woman couldn’t have been her...it could have been the woman he mistook for her. Yet, why did it feel like he was telling the truth?
Why had she never liked the Moon goddess?
Everyone assumed she did. After all, she was raised to adore the Moon goddess. She was chosen to lead the worshippers in their devotion.
But deep down... Reana knew the truth. And the truth was, she could never hate anyone more than she hated the Moon goddess. Her hatred for that woman was born with her. Even before she could love anyone, or utter a word, she’d already hated the Moon goddess to the bones.
And it scared Reana, which was why she kept it hidden, locked up inside her. Deep, deep inside, that over the years, she’d successfully convinced herself that she didn’t hate the woman or like her. But the truth remained that she wished to kill that woman.
And now that Ryder had laid it bare for her, exposing her darkest secret, she felt embarrassed and ashamed.
She turned away from him, her face flushed. "You’re out of your mind. You’re–" she gasped when he turned her chin back in place.
