A LUNA ON CONTRACT Chapter 49
SCARLETTMy phone beeped with a text, I took it out of my bag and it was from Myla. -22, Pine Falls. 10:00pm- The text read. I paused and responded.-What about Arthur? We need to protect him at all cost--He has moved to the house you secured for him. I’ll make sure his safe- she texted back. I sighed deeply and tucked my phone inside my bag as I headed inside. Hopefully they don’t act funny and play by the rules because I know them well enough to know that they don’t play by the rules.I know my mother has always wanted to be affiliated with the Alpha family by all means. Which is why I thought I was lucky when Alex called me his mate, I had thought my mother would finally look at me with the exact same eyes she looked at Alyssa with. I had thought she would begin to treat me better, but then I realized that she hated me even more than I could imagine. Because when she found out it was me who was mated to the Alpha, she connived with Alyssa to seduce Alex and get him to marry

SCARLETT That’s same Night. 10:00pm “Come in,” Myla muttered to me. I looked up at the very modest one storey building, one would almost think there’s no house on this side of the pack. I nodded slowly at her, as she led me in, taking off her footwear at the entrance and I had to do the same. The interior of the house was as unkempt as the exterior although neatly arranged. It looked like they packed in in a hurry, like they didn’t wait for the house to be completely finished before they moved in.“Myla!” A more matured voice called from the inside and I looked up at her immediately.“Yes Mom. It’s me. Come out, we have a visitor!” She called out in reply. She slowly turned to me rubbing her hands on her thigh.“Please sit,” she muttered taking a seat herself.“You live here?!” I asked, my voice barely above a whisper and she nodded slowly.“Not by choice though. They’d take us out if they find out we’re still alive” she said. My brows narrowed as I propped forward. “What are you

SCARLETT NEXT MORNING“Mom, please don’t do this to me! Please, I’m begging you!” I sobbed, her hands tightening like a vice around my neck. “After everything I’ve done to give you a better life, to give us a better life, you think I’ll let you throw it all away?” she snarled, her grip growing even more suffocating. I reached to her hands struggling to free myself, but there was not much my ten year old fingers could do.“Please! I’m begging you!” My cries broke through the suffocating air, but her eyes only darkened with rage. Her fingers dug into my skin, and I felt my breath slipping away. A small whimper echoed behind us. My mother’s movements froze, and her head snapped toward the sound. I turned my eyes, gasping for air, and saw her gaze narrow on a girl about my age standing behind us. The girl trembled, her wide eyes filled with terror. The moment she locked gazes with my mother, she let out a scream , turned around and stormed away. My mother hissed, her lips curling

SCARLETT Later that Day. “Clean your mouth! You lie a lot!” I teased Callum elbowing him playfully and we both bursted out laughing. “I don’t know what you’re talking about!” He mumbled raising his hands briefly in surrender before reaching forward to push the door open for me to step out. We just finished a meeting with the shareholders at my father’s company and formally introduced me as the new chairperson to them and trust my mother to be on her last nerve as all that happened. “You said you came here for me, turned out you came because of the shareholders meeting!” I muttered as we made our way to the car. He chuckled loudly and I raised the corner of my lips in a sneer at him. “That’s what the dictionary calls coincidence honey,” he said and I raised my nose at him. “I hear you,” he gently reached forward, grabbed the handle of the door knob open for me to step in.“Easy my Queen,” he muttered as I stepped into the car and I couldn’t help but smile. As soon as I got in,

Two Hours Later. Willow Brooke.CALLUM “Luna,” Nolan Muttered with a small bow as soon as we arrived the location he sent us. She responded with a small nod and I closed the door behind her. All three of us turned to look up at the building in front of us. The building wasn’t on an abandoned road, rather it was along a very busy road but if you do not look close enough, you could miss the tiny path that led to this place. Kael must have done a good job making this place his hideout.“This place is surrounded already, there’s no way he’s escaping, I’ve reached out to Kian too, he’s on his way” Nolan said to me and I nodded slowly.“How did you get this place?!” I asked.“It was an anonymous tip off with video evidences,” he said to me.“What are we waiting for, let’s go in!” Scarlett said, I turned to her and nodded firmly.“Stick with me,” I muttered and with that, we made our way inside the house. I stealthily walked into the house with Nolan and Scarlett trailing behind me, my eye

SCARLETT Later in the Night. 10:45pmCallum and Kian stood side by side beside each other in front of the grave where Kael had just been buried. I, Amy, Nolan and Annabeth stood next to each other and behind them, we were all dressed in black, Callum and Kian held onto themselves tightly. It was the first time I’ve seen both of them cry. Callum especially, it was very obvious that he loved his brother very much even with their differences. It’s just so painful how it takes death to make us realize how much we love and how much we should have shown it while they’re still alive. My grip around Amy’s hands tightened, It was Kian I pitied the most, I know how bad I felt when my father died, I can’t even try to imagine how he must be feeling, dealing with the loss of his twin for that matter. The burial had ended few minutes ago, but Kian and Callum decided to stay back and we just could not leave without them. Amy tugged lightly at my hand and I slowly turned and looked down at her

CALLUM Next Day."Track the number that sent the address—I want to see who it belongs to," I said, my tone firm as I looked at Nolan. He turned to face me, his brows narrowing slightly in confusion."Why would you want to do that? What does it have to do with everything we're dealing with right now?" he muttered lowly.I sighed, settling into the chair behind my desk. Crossing my legs, I leaned back slightly, my expression calm but my hands balled into a fist. "Think about it. I never released an official announcement saying Kael was missing, nor did I ask for help finding him. Even the Elders are not aware that we suspect Kael or that we’ve been searching for him."Nolan's frown deepened, but he stayed silent, waiting for me to continue."But this person knew—somehow, they knew we needed to find Kael urgently. Don’t you think that’s suspicious? I refuse to believe whoever tipped us off is completely innocent." I paused, meeting his gaze. “The text said, ‘I last saw him there’ but

SCARLETTLater, 5:00pm Annabeth slowly disengaged from our hug, she stepped back, and I smiled at her. I just got back to pick a few things to visit the orphanage with, I called her to meet up with me, so we’d go together. “I didn’t realize I could miss you this much,” she mumbled and my smile widened. “I know right. I called you quite a number of times but you weren’t always available,” I said as I slowly took her hand and we turned and began to walk out of the pack house. She sighed deeply as she rolled her eyes to the back of her head. “My phone and I, we’re not very good friends. Even now I don’t think I took it with me when I left the house,” she said, I chuckled lightly and shook my head slowly.“You still haven’t changed,” I said and she raised her brows tilting her head slightly to the side. “I’ll be more mindful of it now,” she said. “Should I put all of it in?” A maid asked softly and we turned to her simultaneously. “Yes please, have other people join you to put eve

SCARLETT “Scarlett!” I heard Callum’s voice as soon as I walked into the Packhouse and my heart unintentionally skipped a beat. I paused in my tracks as he made his way towards me, grabbed me by my shoulders lightly and began to look me over. My eyes followed his hands in confusion as he looked through my body as if checking for injuries. “Are you okay?”“Did anybody try to hurt you? Did anybody approach you today or anything?!” He asked all in one breath, I grabbed his hands almost immediately to make him stop. “Honey! I’m okay, what’s going on?!” I asked. He exhaled deeply and shook his head slowly. “Nothing, I just thought something bad had probably happened to you,” he mumbled, I slowly took my lower lips into my mouth and shook my head slowly. “I’m okay,” I said to him and he nodded slowly. “Where did you go?!” He finally asked. His question caught me off guard almost immediately like I didn’t see it coming. I raised my brows and pressed my lips against each other.“Hmm?”

CALLUM FEW MINUTES LATER “Seth, lead a portion of the warriors and go this way. Make sure you cover the entire surroundings,”“Nolan and I will lead the rest inside the building,” I ordered as soon as we arrived at the six-story abandoned building. “Yes, sir!” Seth howled, nodding firmly with a small bow. Without wasting any more time, Seth and his group moved away to cover the entire surrounding, while my group proceeded into the building. “Let’s split up so we can cover this place quickly. We mustn’t give anyone a chance to escape!” “If you find anything, even the littlest unusual thing, communicate with the rest of us! Everyone should put down the walls of their mind link! I don’t want any excuses!” I briefed them hurriedly, and the moment I was done, we all turned in different directions in the building. I moved stealthily through the dark hallways, lit up by a small torch in my hand. My senses on high alert as I advanced in my search. The scent of dust, mold, and stal

SCARLETT 10: 30pm “Woah! This is crazy!” I whisper yelled with my eyes wide open as I scrolled through my laptop. My phone was beside me on the table connected to my earbuds as I checked the file Annabeth sent to me on my laptop. “Scarlett, Crazy is an understatement!” “The whole time, the account we’ve been tracking is a fake account? It was created in Kael’s name but it wasn’t his,” she said, I exhaled deeply and shook my head slowly. “Do you think Kian did this?!” I asked reducing my voice lower than a whisper, she exhaled at the other end of the phone, I slowly turned to my phone and picked it up. “At this point Scarlett, I’m very suspicious of him,” she said. I dipped my hands into my hair and moved it backwards as I slowly leaned into the chair I was sitting on by the pool.“Is there a way we can confirm all this once and for all? And find out if he’s behind this or not and find who is actually behind this,” I said to her. “There’s only one thing we can do. We need ac

LATER THAT DAY CALLUM “I found a digital contract with your parent and Cora, it was clearly a rip off but your parents still signed it. It’s either she had something on them or they were just plainly oblivious of the whole arrangement, which I clearly doubt the former,” Nolan said to me as he walked into my office, took his seat across from me on the table and stretched out his tablet to me. “Where did you find this?!” I asked him as I gently took his tablet from him and looked through it. “Yeah, I was going to tell you, I found this safe in your father’s previous office and it contained a flashdrive, unfortunately this was the only document in the drive,” he said. I sighed and slowly reclined in my chair, “Scarlett keeps saying I should leave everything concerning Cora to her and focus on apprehending Kayden, but the truth is I think she’s starting to take on more than she can bear,” I said to him. “Well I think if we hand over all we’re able to find against Cora to her, it’ll

SCARLETT Next Day. 10:00am.A small knock came on my door, I slowly looked up at it and got up to my feet, Callum left for the office few hours ago. I adjusted my knee lenght floral dress and asked whoever was at the door to come in. The door slowly went open, Kaitlyn poked her head in a little bit before walking in fully.“Luna, I’m so sorry. I did everything to wash it but the stain just isn’t coming off,” She said. I sighed and rolled my eyes to the back of my head.“Kaitlyn, I already told you this before, forget about it, just dispose it, it’s not that big of a deal,” I said to her, she bit on her lower lips and bowed slightly. “I’m sorry, really,” she whispered.“Stop being dramatic Kaitlyn,” I said to her as I slowly picked up my bag on the bed and looked up at her.“It’s fine, I was just about to step out. Also, when I get back, I’ll like to have just meat, and make sure it’s well done,” I said to her, she nodded immediately in response. I grabbed the door knob and walked

SCARLETT Later that night …“Since I don’t have anything important doing, I’ll be visiting the orphanage often, Annabeth would join me whenever she’s chanced,” I said to Callum as I looked up to look at him through the mirror. I was seated in front of the dressing mirror applying face moisturizer.“Are you sure that’s convenient for you?!” He asked, I moved my head backwards almost immediately and I finally turned around to face him.“Convenient for me?! That’s my job! I should be doing it,”“Besides you guys are so busy looking for Kayden, I should be able to put things in order at the orphanage so this doesn’t happen again,” I said to him and he nodded slowly, turning his gaze back to the tablet he was working on. “Any progress though?!” I asked and he shook his head slowly.“No at all, just that Kayden apparently had the same pair of shoes as Kian,” he said, I slowly took my lips into my mouth and nodded slowly.“Any efforts on getting the lost footage files?!” I asked and he s

MEANWHILE TWILIGHT ZONE ALEX “Are you really going to behave like you didn’t stand there and let Scarlett beat me up?!” Alyssa said to me as soon as we walked in and she slammed the door shut heavily behind herself. I slowly turned to her, she had an irritated scowl on her face with her hand gripping her waist firmly. I rolled my eyes to the back of my head with a small sigh as I turned and walked further into the living room. “Did you just ignore me?!” She snorted angrily as she stomped towards me.“She asked you to stay back and you did?! Since when did you start listening to people much less Scarlett?!” She snorted,“Have you fallen in love with her?!” She asked, stepping even closer to me. I scoffed and shook my head at her.“I think the question should be, have you fallen in love with me?!” I queried raising my brows at her. “Our relationship is purely contractual and open, you and your mother needs me in your lives just as much as I need you both in mine, so don’t go aro

SCARLETT “Kian?!” I slowly unlocked the driver seat, pushed the door open and slowly stepped out. His eyes followed my movement and slowly landed on my face as soon as I stepped out fully and slammed the door shut. I saw the corner of his eyes twitch and his lips slowly stretched into a smirk that wiped off immediately, almost as if I was hallucinating and he didn’t smirk. “Scarlett?!” He whispered as he slowly dropped his hands, removing the gun from my face. I slowly stepped away from the car and walked towards him. “W-what a-are you doing?” I asked in a stutter, my voice barely above a whisper. His eyes slowly left my face and landed on my car.“I-I - must have made a mistake,” he muttered as he slowly returned the gun to his back pocket, he dipped his hands into his side pocket and took out a definely cut peice of paper.“Apparently, Kayden’s number plate and yours are similar, just the last two digits are different, I was so desperate to find him, I didn’t realize it wasn’t
A LUNA ON CONTRACT Chapter 62
SCARLETT Next Morning, 8:20am “Scarlett!” Myla exclaimed lowly as soon as she stepped out of the kitchen in her apartment and saw me walking inside. “You didn’t have to come here, I don’t want your mother to be suspicious at all,” she said wiping her hands with the back of her dress. “It’s fine, I’m leaving already,” “I’m sorry, I wasn’t able to listen to the meeting with Arthur yesterday, what did they talk about?” I asked. She exhaled deeply and slowly folded her hands across her chest. “Alyssa and Alex will get married still. Something about Veto power, the Alpha gets what the Alpha wants,” she said her face downcast with a small sigh. “I thought this would be the way to finally show everyone who they really are,”“But guess who turned the whole thing around, all under the disguise of being in love, what nonsense love!” She snorted as she slowly folded her hands under her burst. I reached forward and gently placed my hands in her shoulders.“It’s fine, they’d fall into your
