Defending his mate

CHAPTER 6

"I am Alpha Kai of the crescent pack!" I watched from the corners of my eyes as Alpha Kai pulled out all of a sudden from behind me.

The uneasy tension in the air suddenly dies down, a soft silence hanging in the air. I watched as my father's once proud expression twisted into a frown of shock and surprise. I watched amidst shock as my father halted, his expression twisting in surprise as he turned towards the voice. Alpha Kai stood at the entrance, his presence radiating authority and power. His eyes were sharp, his expression resolute.

"Release her," he commanded, his voice brooking no argument. The guards hesitated, glancing at my father for direction. My father's face contorted in a mix of confusion and anger.

"Who dares—" My father dragged his words, fear gleaming in my veins as I shivered in the tight grasps of the guards. He was already boiling with fury, his jaw tightly clenched as Alpha Kai confidently strides inti the light.

"I am Alpha Kai of the Crimson Pack," Kai interrupted, stepping forward with a confidence that silenced the room. His words hung heavily in the air, silence layering against the four walls of the room.

I watched as my father's face turned pale as the realization of who stood before him sank in. He took an involuntary step back, his bravado crumbling.

"Alpha Kai..." he stammered, his voice barely above a whisper. kai's gaze was unyielding, his stance imposing. "Release her," he repeated, each word laced with authority.

The guards, sensing the shift in power, immediately let go of my arms and stepped back, their heads bowed in respect. My father, still reeling from the shock, stumbled over his words.

"I... I didn't realize..." Kai took another step forward, his eyes never leaving my father's. "You didn't realize what? That you were about to violate the sacred bond between mates? That you were treating your daughter like a pawn in your games?"

My father bowed his head, his earlier arrogance replaced by fear and submission. "My apologies, Alpha Kai. I didn't know she was your mate."

Kai's expression remained cold, his gaze piercing. "Now you know. And you will not touch her again. Do I make myself clear?" My father nodded quickly, his head still bowed, "Yes, Alpha. I understand."

As I watched the scene, I couldn't help but gawk at Alpha Kai's body figure from the corners of my eyes. Even though he was obviously going be a jerk to me throughout my stay as his mate, I was sure I'd persevere.

The guards who were once holding me roughly were now all standing by the edges of the room shaken with fear. Just as I was about to dwell more in my reverie, I heard footsteps coming in from the direction of the stairs, I turned my gaze over to the figure as I smirked.

It was Natasha. She was dressed in a skimpy see through dress that revealed her curves, her hair was also braided in curls. I watched as she stylishly walked over to where I was, her strong lavender scent filling the air announcing her unwelcomed presence.

Natasha giggled wryly, "Oh my, Emma, you finally get a mate after all these years." My face twisted to a snarl, Natasha was obviously up to something and I could tell it wasn't good. "What do you want, Natasha?" I asked, my face contoured in anger. I watched as she suddenly licked her lips seductively walking towards Kai where he stood.

"Nothing much, I just wanted to wish my stepsister and her mate a wonderful mate hood." I watched as Natasha shook her lustrous hair, her eyes staring into kai's. I could already tell she was trying to seduce him from marking me as his mate.

"It's quite shameful to see a weak wolfless omega like my sister get paired up with the likes of a mighty, highly respected alpha like you." Natasha rattled softly, her body just an inch away from Alpha Kai's.

She licked her lips seductively saying, "You could always have a change of mind alpha," She ran her fingers in her lustrous blonde hair, staring thirstily at my mate.

"Do something!" Aurora growled in me, I couldn't help but feel the soft pull of aurora's fierce anger. I watched with a slight squint, the anger purring in my veins now getting thicker by each passing second of Natasha's luring speech to my mate. She had always made my life miserable, striping me of everything I rightfully deserved. My father, my boyfriend and now my mate— I can't let this happen, I have to do something.

"I can help you," Aurora offered from within, "In what way?" I asked sending through the mind link. "All you have to do is give me control over your body and I'll deal with that wh*re!"

"And how do I do that?" I sent, hoping it would work out. "All you have to do is to try to seal our connection fully by saying, I give you full control." Aurora mused, I could sense the thirst for revenge in her tone.

"I give you full control!" I said out aloud as all of a suddenly I felt a burst in me, sensations sprouting in my ever inch. I could now see things from the eyes of aurora, my wolf, I could see Natasha, talking about my weaknesses and her supposed probabilities of me not being able to be a good Luna to Kai.

I watched as my body sauntered off to Natasha faster than I could ever recall, I could feel an unmatched array of confidence in my veins. Natasha was a jerk and she would obviously get treated like one today.

"You know I am far better than her, Alpha." I heard her words brush past my ears as I immediately raised my hands and planted a slap on her face.

"Don't you have any shame Natasha?" I growled, my voice filled with anger and the fury from all these years finally flowing freely. "Get your lustful eyes off my mate or else-" I dared as she suddenly interrupts, "Or else what."

"Else I'll have you punished for disrespecting my mate!" Alpha Kai hollered, his dark velvety voice claiming full silence in the arena. He pulled me closer to him upon his words as I scoffed at Natasha and noticed the glints of anger in her eyes.

"I'm sorry Alpha." She murmured softly in defeat bowing her head slightly. "Not to me, apologize clearly to my mate for disrespecting her."

"I'm sorry, Emma." She mumbled as I suddenly felt my aurora going back to her form as Alpha Kai turned to me, "Let's leave, Emmaline."

I followed him past the crowd of guards as we made our way back to the parking lot where his car was packed. His Beta, whose name I'd finally got to know, Luke, opened the door for me as I entered the car.

As I entered into the car, I couldn't help but ponder on my confidence back there in the room with Natasha. I never knew Aurora had the power to take control of my body and help me deal with scumbags like Natasha. I felt relieved, I had gotten all the revenge I wanted from Natasha for all she's done.

Alpha Kai entered shortly after me, his presence tucking me out of my chain of thoughts. "And I must commend your wolf's strength at handling the situation." I heard him say as my heart flutters, a smile spreading across my cheeks like a rainbow.

"If you're going to be my Luna, you'll need far more than that," he murmured, his voice low and enigmatic. He then turned sharply to Luke. "Let's go."
