Substitute Bride To The Alpha Chapter 37
CLARAI woke up in Roberto's arms, I looked up to see that he was fast asleep, thankfully the dark circles around his eyes seemed to disappear a bit, I quietly got up trying to make sure not to wake him up but I felt someone pull me by hand back to the bed. "Where are you going?" I heard his deep voice say but when I looked at him, his eyes were still tightly shut. "Oh hi, good morning, I thought you were asleep and I wanted to use the bathroom.""Oh, alright then, but come back immediately after you are done," he let go of my hand and turned over making him lay on his side. "Sure," I smiled and pecked his cheek. I tiptoed to the bathroom and stood in front of the mirror, sighing deeply I turned on the tap and splashed water on my face, I still couldn't believe it, all along it was Roberto, my heart sank just remembering his words from yesterday. Poor guy he's been going through all that all alone, not only he didn't get to enjoy life with his mother, he dreamt of her death every

CLARAI threw on anything my hand could get on first, looking at the mirror, it wasn't so bad, I think. A grey crop top and loose pants, my hair was in a messy bun but I didn't care my stomach growled again reminding me how hungry I was. "Hair later, food now," I checked around to see if I was forgetting anything before running out of my room, I apologized as I almost bumped into Lilian, my handmaiden. "Oh I'm sorry Luna," she quickly bent her head immediately as she saw me. "No no don't be, I was the one running around recklessly.”She didn't reply and still kept her head low."Uhm, Lilian? It's fine.”"Thank you, Luna, the Alpha is waiting for you downstairs in the dining room, breakfast has been served.”"Alright then, thank you.”I left her and ran straight to the dining room, panting hard I smiled when I saw that the table was filled up with different kinds of food, fruits, and drinks. "I don't even know where to start from," I licked my lips and clapped my hands together.

CLARA "Come on, let's continue with our stroll before we were interrupted.” "Correction, we didn't even get started before we were interrupted," I rolled my eyes. "Your servants sometimes just don't know when to disturb.” He laughed and took my hand in his, and we both walked out of his office, he first showed me some rooms I hadn't been to, thankfully nothing creepy or dangerous was going on in there, after walking around the palace for almost an hour, we stepped out of the palace. "Well that was nice," He breathed. "Yeah, even though I've seen the majority of everything you showed me, I still enjoyed it.” "Hmhm” "Where are you going?" I asked as he started walking ahead of me. "Come, you will see," I followed him and we both stopped when we got to a big tree, we both stood in front of the tree, admiring it while Roberto took a deep breath and smiled. "My mother used to bring me here when I was little, each time she felt stressed, she would take me for a walk and

CLARA"Full moon tomorrow?" I asked in shock. "So that means—""Yes," he smiled proudly. "Are you sure?""I mean, it is about time anyway," I heard him chuckle and felt his warm embrace as he wrapped his arms around me from behind, placing soft kisses on the exposed skin of my neck."We are going to be official.""Hmmhmm."Was I ready? To be marked means eternity—forever together with just one person. Will we last?"What? What is wrong?" he asked, cupping my face and trying to read my eyes."Nothing.""Lies. You’re thinking again. I know you—what is wrong?"I sighed and looked him directly in the eyes. "I am scared, Roberto. This will be forever. Will you still feel the same way? I know you love me, but this is different. It’s going to seal our lives together as one for good. What if something happens?""Like what?""I don't know... are you falling for someone else? Or..." I shook my head, trying hard not to think of negative things. "... Or I don't know, Roberto, anything?""Nothing

CLARAThe ride was long, extremely long, my legs were aching and the silence was dreadful. Roberto on the other hand was fast asleep throughout the whole ride and I was busy playing multiple games on my phone until it died. After what felt like 10 hours, we finally arrived. "Finally!" I exclaimed. "I can get out of this car!"Roberto yawned and stretched. "Yeah, finally, God for how long was I out?""I don't know, the whole ride?""Shit."The whole place was noisy and people were everywhere, I was getting a bit anxious at the same time. "You okay?""Pre-party jitters I guess?" I rubbed my hands together and sucked in my breath. I felt a warm touch on my hands and I looked down, Roberto held my hand in his and smiled at me. "Don't worry, I'm here with you.""Of course."The car door opened and I stepped out, Roberto quickly rushed to my side. Immediately as we started walking ahead, people rushed towards us and so did the paparazzi, everyone was all over our faces. Damien may be the

CLARAThe ride home was extremely tiring and quiet, after that argument with Roberto we hadn't said a single word to each other. I looked over at him, then looked away, I looked at him again and sucked in my breath. "Roberto?""Clara, don't," He coldly said. "You have said enough.""We can talk about this... ""We have NOTHING TO TALK ABOUT!" I kept my lips in a thin line and trembled, the veins at his neck had popped out, and his voice boomed with annoyance and irritation. "Don't push it, you have done enough for just one night."Smooth Clara really smooth. I decided not to say anything not to anger him even more, I know I was wrong to lash out but then again Ah! fuck this. I crawled up and drifted off to sleep. "We are home." I heard a voice say dragging me out of my deep sleep, I looked at my phone and gasped. 8:00 am on the dot. Wow, that ride took a whole whopping 6 hours. The chauffeur opened the door and I stepped out of the car without wasting any time, Roberto was taking

ROBERTO I sat on the armchair engrossed in reading the newspaper in my hand while Clara was busy stuffing her face with cake. I checked my watch monitoring the time, in 45mins I should be leaving for the meeting with the pack about the run and hunt. My thoughts were disturbed when I heard a loud munching sound from Clara, I groaned slightly. "For a slim girl, she eats a lot" I muttered my breath. 'And chews a bit aloud'"I think it's cute Leo, it's not that bad."I stared at her again watching her every move, her eyes were focused on whatever she was reading and her right hand was busy stuffing her face up, I watched as her face showed different emotions, how her lips curled into a smile, how her brows knot in confusion and how her eyes lit up, watching her read just one chapter and how she showed different emotions amused me. I smiled unknowingly totally forgetting about anything else, I was satisfied by just watching her. Her eyes finally caught mine and her cheeks became re

CLARA It was time. As the full moon rose high in the night sky, casting an ethereal glow over the forest. The pack gathered in a clearing. Roberto or Leo rather stood at the forefront, his fur shimmering in the moonlight looking as beautiful as ever. I well Rae stood close to him admiring him. 'He's so beautiful.' Rae spoke. "I know Rae, I know." I hummed. Suddenly, a howl pierced the silence, signaling the beginning of the transformation. One by one, the pack members shifted, their bodies contorting and changing, fur sprouting, muscles bulging as they embraced their primal instincts under the moon's spell. Roberto let out a resounding howl that echoed, a call to hunt and run. "Ready?" Roberto's mind linked me. "Ready." At that moment, the pack ran with a wild grace, their howls harmonizing with the night, I felt so alive and free. After the successful hunt, under the glow of the full moon, Roberto and I departed from the pack. "Come, I want to show yo

CLARATwo years later."Silver, come here," I cooed at my little baby who had just finally taken his first step. "Aww, look at you. All grown up and handsome."I picked him up and caressed his chin while he tugged at my sleeve. "No, don't chew that," I scolded and yanked my sleeve away causing him to cry."Dear heavens, Olivia please take this child away from me."She chuckled and took Silver from me, who immediately stopped crying and started giggling. I scoffed as the both of them started cooing at each other."Might as well be his mother too."Olivia chuckled and sat in front of me. "Luna, he loves you and you know it.""He's stubborn.""He's like his mother," she whispered under her breath, but I heard her loud and clear."How DARE YOU?!" I playfully scolded her. We both sat there, she carried silver in her hands humming softly to him, while I knitted a cute baby cap for him.He was turning two very soon. I was so excited to finally celebrate his birthday! Even though it's a few m

CLARAI woke up feeling a bit lightheaded, I looked around confused. Why was I in a hospital?I groaned as I placed my hand on my head, I felt something wrapped around it...a bandage?Wait..that's right.I was kidnapped and-What the fuck happened next?!!!I tried to move, but a sharp pain emitted and I collapsed back on my bed panting hard. I remember Cassandra hitting my hand and I hit my whole body with a tree, but what happened next?But more importantly, where's Roberto, Landon? Storm? Olivia? Mateo?!!!I groaned louder as I forced myself to get up, the hospital room was extremely large, large enough to be a whole chamber.I gently pushed the door open and I gasped when I saw Mateo standing outside. "Mateo!" I sighed in relief."Luna-" he was cut short when I wrapped my arms around him pulling me into a tight hug."Oh, sorry," I blushed and pulled away from him. "I'm sorry, I got excited and it's good to see you. Alive and well."He smiled and nodded. "It's great to see you too L

CLARAI struggled against the ropes, my heart racing as I sucked in my breath. Cassandra and Alexander seemed to be deep into their conversation as both of them turned their backs on me.Suddenly, Cassandra went behind me, I could feel the ropes that tied my hands getting tighter."Cassandra, what are you doing?" I gasped, breaking through the surface.She leaned over, her lips bearing touching my ears. "Just making sure," She slid the glass I hid in between my palm. "You know, you aren't very smart."She waved the glass at my face before throwing it into the pool. "How foolish of you, you actually thought you could outsmart us and run away?""Let me go! You won’t get away with this!" I shouted at her."Such fire! But you're not in a position to make demands," She taunted, glancing back to Alexander, who was watching us with a blank expression on his face."I can't wait any longer. Let's proceed," Alexander spoke up, crossing his arms. "The longer we wait, the more unpredictable our l

ROBERTOI sat in my office and glanced over at the wall clock opposite me. It's been an hour since I left Clara, but I just had this sudden urge to see her.I left my office and headed to her room. The guard who stood there moved and bowed as he sighted me. "Clara?" I knocked, but no one answered."Where's the Luna?" I asked the guard who stood outside her room."No Alpha, the Luna hasn't returned yet.""She hasn't? It's dark right now. Could she still be outside?"I went back to the courtyard, but she wasn't there. My heart started racing fast as I began to run around the palace but there was no sign of her."Mateo!" I picked up my phone and dialed his number. "Find the Luna!" I said and cut the call.After a few minutes, he ran up to me, panting hard. "Alpha... The Luna hasn't been found yet.""What do you mean you can't find the LUNA?!" I screamed at the top of my voice as Mateo returned, his eyes seemed like they were about to pop out."I left her outside! And I have strict instr

CLARAI lay on the ground, the world around me began to clear, and panic surged through my veins as I struggled to comprehend what had just happened.The last thing I remembered was the gentle breeze and stars then-"Fuck!" I cried as I held my head, all I could feel right now was a headache, one that could split my brain into two."Roberto?" I called out softly. Where am I? Suddenly, my vision began to fade, and the shadows around me began to close in. I felt the weight of the night pressing down, and just before everything went dark.I caught a glimpse of a figure looming over me."Who are-""You should have listened to your dear husband and stayed in," The voice whispered, sending chills down my spine.That voice..."You're-""Hello, sister."I gasped as the realization hit me. That voice was unmistakably familiar- my elder sister."Why did you-" Betrayal coursed through Mr as I succumbed to darkness, realizing I had been trapped in her twisted game all along."Olivia was right...

CLARAI was fast asleep when all of a sudden Olivia burst into my room breathing hard. The sound of my door being shut hard made me jolt up."What is it?" I gasped as I rubbed my eyes, I controlled myself not to scream at her."Luna? Why are you in bed?" She stared at me with wide eyes."What do you mean why am I still in bed? I've been in bed ever since you left!" I answered annoyed."I'm so sorry...it's just, I thought I saw you outside the training ground. Just now!""What?" I blinked rapidly, the sleep had now disappeared from my eyes. ~O~Roberto sat on my bed, holding me in his arms as he gently rubbed my belly, for some reason, that calmed me down and I enjoyed it.Olivia stood opposite us, her eyes wide and her hands shaking terribly. While Landon sat on the chair next to my desk."Olivia, repeat what you told the Luna," Roberto said, his voice laced with slight annoyance.She took a deep breath as she cleared her throat. "I went out for some fre

OLIVIAI stood at the door watching Luna cry softly, she wasn't aware that I was in the room with her. I came in to drop her breakfast as she had completely stopped eating at the dining.To her, she claimed it was pointless since the cooks had been changed and only me and Ma'am Maria had control over what she ate.I let out a deep breath as I stood there, holding the tray still in my hands, carefully enough not to make any noise.She's going through a lot and I hated it, neither she nor the Alpha deserved this. They were good people, so why such a cruel fate?I sighed deeply and slowly slid down the wall, landing on the wall.Unfortunately, I winced when I cut myself with the penknife I kept on the tray."Who's that?!" Her voice spoke up."It's me, Luna!" I announced as I got up and slowly walked towards her with a forced smile. "I'm sorry I-""You heard me crying, didn't you?""I'm sorry..." I bowed my head down in shame. "You weren't aware when I got in and I suddenly heard you cryi

ROBERTO"The Luna is pregnant," The doctor announced as he stood up. "However, there are signs of possible miscarriage, it would be best if she was to refrain from stress and such. Her body is weak so is her mind, a healthy mother is the only thing that can guarantee a good baby.""How long is she gone?""Alpha, I'd say a month. Early-stage pregnancies are easily prone to miscarriages, I'll bring over some drugs and drop a list of fruits and food she should eat, to prevent terrible news.""Thank you," That was the only word that could escape my lips, as he left. I sat on her bed, carefully stroking her hair.Mateo was outside her room, while Olivia and Landon were inside with me. "What do we do now?" Landon spoke up."Find my father and kill him. That's all we can do, Clara is pregnant, and now I have two important people to look after. Two souls that nobody should harm," I looked at him with a determined look."I'll find him, and end this so that my family and my people will be safe.

CLARAI woke up feeling extremely tired, I looked down at myself and sighed when I realized I was still wearing my party dress.Still can't believe Storm's crowning ceremony and wedding were yesterday, still feels like a dream.I'm so happy for him! It's almost like it was me that those things were happening to.As I was about to get up, I let out a scream when I saw Mateo and Olivia right in front of my door, both of them had eyebags underneath their eyes, Olivia was leaning against the wall, while Mateo stood tall."What's going on?" I said, snapping them out of their thoughts and back to reality."Luna!" Olivia was the first to bow, followed by Mateo. "Good morning My lady," They said in unison."What's going on? Why are you guys in my room?""Uhmm..." Olivia scratched her head. "Last night..or would I say early this morning? The Alpha personally instructed that I would always be in your room, even when you're asleep.""Why?" I shot a brow up."He didn't say, my lady. I dare not q
