The Alpha That Couldn't Remember 63. The Plan
Moon’s povKai filled me in on how Tabitha had given him a new hand. He said it wasn’t like he got his old hand back; he grew a brand new one. There had been a tattoo and scar on his hand, and now it was as good as new.It hurt like hell when Tabitha removed a pound of flesh, and I was glad I wasn’t there, because I would have killed her for hurting my mate.But nothing prepared me for the pain of his hand growing back. The only thing that helped was sticking my hand in the ice cold river near our pack. I hoped that distracting Kai by sounding seductive might distract him, because, Goddess almighty, that hurt.I couldn’t wait to see Kai and try his new hand out. I wondered if it was really soft because I actually liked the feel of his rough hand on my body.What was most important, was that Kai felt good. That he could fight like he used to, and that he didn't require assistance with simple tasks.I didn’t care if he had one hand or two, but I knew how much it meant to him."Does it les

Kai’s povWe were prepared to attack and waited for Moon's signal.When they were inside the pack, we’d attack. We’d gathered our troops in the night, without a warning, almost a day before our troops thought we’d attack. To make sure no one could leak any information to Alpha Oskar.And now we had been standing ready for hours, waiting for the right time to strike."Kai, I’m sorry. Tell my dad that I’m sorry too. But there has been a change of plans. I am going to give myself up like some Trojan horse and tell you when to attack. Don’t tell anyone yet, I’m counting on the element of surprise." Said, mind-linking me."What the fuck, Moon! What if he kills you the minute he sees you?!" I shouted through the mindlink."He won’t. He needs those who are loyal to me to see me die. Everyone heard my grandfather’s speech. You'll have someone inside to distract the soldiers and Alphaheard my grandfather's speech. This way, you'll have someone inside to distract the soldiers and Alpha. I’ll make

Moon’s pov"Okay, so we just put some blood on your face or…?" Ariel asked when we walked to the Crescent Moon Pack together."Actually, we’re not going to do that. I’m going to have a talk with Alpha Oskar and hopefully distract him enough so the rest can attack."Ariel and Mary seemed surprised by my words, but it was Daphne who stood out. She actually became pale.She shook her head, "but the first idea was fine. We should just stick to the original idea. Right?"She turned to Mary.Mary raised an eyebrow. She was too smart for her own good. She probably knew what I was doing."Why, Daphne?""No, reason. I mean, we prepared for that, and won’t this put Alpha Moon at more risk?" Daphne said innocently.Ariel seemed to catch on too, "are you doubting our Alpha’s judgment?"I could see Susan coming her way. Dad had sent her to help us out."No, I mean, it's fine," Daphne said quickly. "It's just that we prepared, and I'm not sure if we should stick to the old plan, because, -""Because

Kai’s povI heard a loud noise, clearly the sound of gunshots, and I ran back into the packhouse. I didn’t feel any pain coming from Moon, but I was still worried.Moon was standing there, blood dripping from her hand as she held the heart of Alpha Oskar.Fucking hell, she looked good.I wasn’t the only one that heard the shot, and other people started coming inside. They must have felt the death of their Alpha.Moon stood there, naked and covered in scratches, bitemarks, and blood. All I wanted was to fuck her, and I know that’s messed up. It shouldn’t be my first thought, but she looked too fucking good, and I hadn’t seen her in a few days.Moon stared at me as she bit into the heart, the blood dripping down her throat. She didn't do this with Norman's heart, but it was important that she bit into Oskar's heart. It would help with the transition of power. I was getting hard just looking at her. The only time she looked better than she does right now is when she is cumming on top of m

Moon’s povCrap, crap, crap. I was such an idiot. I had always been safe with others, but with Kai, I seemed to forget about any form of birth control entirely. When I was with him, all I could think about was feeling his touch and being close to him. And it wasn’t like the times we had sex were planned. The first time wasn’t. And the second was in the damn woods, so there was no condom in sight.I pretended to sleep; my body was exhausted, but my mind was busy. I counted back to my last period. I should have gotten my period two or three weeks ago. There were a lot of things going on, too much to worry about that.Shit, I was just making excuses. I should have been more responsible. I should have been safe."Stop worrying. Go sleep, and tomorrow you’ll do a test." Angela said it as if it were nothing."Why are you acting like this isn’t news to you?" I growled."Well, Ronin and I talked about it. He’s the one that mentioned it to Kai, actually. I was just waiting for the right moment

Kai’s povI had visited some of my wounded soldiers and told Gamma Diego to take the rest home. The guy was pretty cool, actually, even if I didn’t understand half of what he was saying.Moon was so nervous all day that I could feel it through our bond. I spoke to Alpha Malcom and Alpha Magnus and got so distracted by her nerves that I fucked up and invited them to dinner with us.It might be good to talk to everyone before they leave, though, but I’d rather spend the evening alone with Moon. Ask her why she felt so nervous."Maybe it’s because she’s starting as the new Alpha of the Crescent Moon pack," Ronin suggested."Maybe, but it felt like something else. Especially when she left so suddenly.""Well, let’s go back to the packhouse so you can ask her." Ronin said.I walked back and saw a woman enter. I went in, and one of the omegas told me Moon was in her office. I didn’t even know she had an office yet.She showed me the way, and I caught half of the woman’s conversation."…every

Moon’s povI felt like crap. I get shot on my first day as Alpha of the Crescent Moon pack."And losing the pregnancy?" Angela added."Yes, that too, but I don’t want to think about that right now. I need to show my pack I am strong and I won’t go down easily."Angela didn’t agree; I could sense it. But if I thought about this pregnancy too long, I’d get stuck in this cycle of guilt, regret, and relief. I wasn’t ready yet to be a mom, but I still hated that Madeline took my choice from me. Even if I didn’t feel ready, it was my decision to make.Madeline did this to take something from me, to punish me. She didn’t want to kill me; she wanted to hurt me, and she succeeded, but it cost her life and hurt Erik the most. His mate was a traitor now, while he had always fought for me."You don’t have to do this now," Kai said, his hands grabbing me from behind.He touched my stomach, and I was reminded of what was inside of it a day ago. I pushed his hands away."Please don’t touch my stomach

Kai’s pov"Do you want me to stay?" I asked Moon."Don’t ask me that. You know the answer, but I also know you can’t," she said, pouting."We’ll meet up in a few days, but if you need me, I’m there. The Crescent Moon pack and the Crimson Moon pack aren’t that far from each other. You are what matters most to me, Moon, and what you’ve gone through wasn’t easy."I felt the hurt, even though she was putting on a brave face. "I’m fine. I’m almost healed, and it’s not like I was ready to be a mother anyway."I held her hands in mine; fuck, how I loved having my hand back. "I think you would make a great mother, now or in the future. Just don’t turn into me, okay? You have seen what pushing down your feelings does. Don’t become fucked up like me and take your anger out on others who don’t deserve it."Moon smiled, but the smile didn’t reach her eyes. "You know we both deal with things the same way, but I won’t take my anger out on some poor soul.""You can take it out on me in the bedroom,"

Moon’s pov- ONE YEAR LATER -"Luna?""Luna Moon?"I kept forgetting that I was now Luna."Yes?" I said as I turned around.A mother and her kids were standing there looking at me."Wow, you’ve gotten big." Her little girl said."Ashley! You can’t just say those things." Her mother scolded her."It’s fine. I am big. But can I tell you a secret?"Ashley nodded her little head."It’s because there are two babies inside of me.""Wow! two!" Ashley said excitedly.Her mom smiled at me, "I just wanted to thank you. Alpha Raider has been a wonderful Alpha and has handled everything on his own so well for all these years, but having a Luna is really special. We feel complete, and you both have done such wonderful things for our pack. The Crimson Crescent Pack is on its way to becoming one of the most powerful packs in the whole country, thanks to you and Alpha Raider. We’re really proud to be members."I smiled and was almost brought to tears. Stupid hormones."Thank you; that means a lot.""W

Moon’s pov"Breathe, breathe through the contractions." The midwife said."You fucking breathe." I replied, getting sick of hearing her voice."I’m sorry." Kai said to the midwife, "She didn’t mean it like that."The hell I didn’t.The midwife smiled at us, "don’t worry, I’ve been told worse.""You know, I read somewhere that an orgasm can help with the pain." Kai suggested."An orgasm? You’re thinking about sex right now? That’s the thing that got me into this situation in the first place.""No, I didn't mean it that way, I,-""Just go hang out in the other room with Diego," I yelled, "I need to focus, and Mary will call you when the baby is almost out."Kai nodded and left the room, looking defeated."Maybe I shouldn’t try to have a baby?" Mary joked. "It looks painful, and it turns the future mother into this scary beast that even drives away alpha males.""You want out too?"Mary laughed. She wasn’t scared of me. "No, I can handle scary Moon.""So you’ve been trying to make a baby?

Mary’s povKnowing Moon would give birth in a few months sped up the whole house's construction. Alpha Raider even jumped in to help, and Moon sent some people from our pack to assist as well.It also meant that once the house was done, which would be in a few weeks, Diego and I would start living together.I looked forward to it and was anxious at the same time. I was used to having my own room, my own space, and not having to think about another person. But falling asleep next to Diego and waking up next to him every morning would be wonderful. Knowing I could snuggle in those big, hairy arms of his would be worth giving up some of my personal space."Moon and Raider would have no issue with giving you another room. The house is big enough." Beth, my wolf, said.I didn’t need another room. Diego and I wouldn’t be spending most days together, so this would be just evenings, nights, and mornings. And days off."So plenty of time," Beth joked.I had grown a lot more comfortable around D

Kai's pov"So are you and Maria planning on moving to our new packhouse too?" I asked Diego.He looked unsure."I mean, Mary and Moon are friends, so I kind of assumed it would have come up." I said, "You don’t fucking have to. I mean, it’s just a question.""Maria is her best friend, and soy tu mejor amigo?" said Diego, laughing.I knew what Amigo meant. "I am not your fucking best friend. We’re not in high school."He nodded his head with a stupid smirk on his face, "did you learn Spanish for your amigo?"I growled, "never fucking mind, Diego. You’re getting way too familiar anyway; I wouldn’t want to live with you again."He smiled at me despite my anger, "Maria and I would love to live in the house with you, Alpha Raider. We also talked about perhaps building our own casa in the future.""Well, mi casa es su casa, right? You and Mary are welcome to stay at the packhouse." I said, "for Moon of course. She would love it. I don't fucking care either way."Diego laughed as he walked ou

Diego’s povI knew Maria could handle herself, but I felt this strong urge to protect her and make sure she was okay. Maria was the strongest person I know, but I felt like sometimes she tried to be even stronger and wouldn’t admit when something was wrong.I had felt nothing during our bond because I was most likely sleeping. But I did have this vivid dream of fighting people, which must have been because of Mary.Now that we’re both marked, we feel everything the other feels, and although I already knew Maria was a lot more sensitive than she looked, I hadn’t suspected to feel so much from her. She felt deeply, just like I did, but she kept them hidden by acting though."So, you want to check up on Mary, huh?" Alpha Moon teased."Por supuesto [of course], just like you went with Alpha Raider, no?"Alpha Moon laughed, "yeah. But Mary was doing her job, and my mate was being a reckless idiot. Going in alone could have gone so terribly wrong.""He was doing his job también [as well]. He

Kai’s povA loud scream tore through the packhouse, and then there was silence. We walked down to see Luna Suzanne and Darius in the living room, hugging each other."It hurts, honey, but I’ll be okay. You matter more to me." Suzanne said to her son. We weren't needed here anymore. I wouldn't want to hang around with the person who killed my mate just a few seconds ago.I looked at Darius, and he nodded his head. I could feel his alpha aura now; the transfer was complete.We left the packhouse and walked to the car. We weren’t stopped by any guards, and the gates opened for us to pass through. Darius, sorry Alpha Darius must have told them to let us pass.Ten minutes into our ride home, Moon sighed."Kai…""I know, I’m fucking sorry.""You can’t just do these things, what if something happened?"I shrugged my shoulders, "it didn’t.""And you can’t just talk for me. That was not your secret to tell. I am a damn Alpha; I can handle my own problems. I don’t need a knight on a white horse

Moon’s pov"So you’re going to Alpha Paul now to pay him back?" I mindlinked Kai."No, well, I wanted to kill him, but I will try another way first.""And you’re taking Darius with you?" I asked."Yes, my Moon.""The same guy that tried to kill you literally an hour ago?"Kai laughed, "the same fucking guy. I trust him. I don’t know why, but let’s just say it’s a gut thing.""Well, I have a gut feeling too, and it says that you’re being reckless. Going inside Alpha Paul’s territory with his son. If he does kill you, it looks like you provoked it." "Alpha Paul isn’t strong or brave enough, that’s why he sent his pup to do his nasty work." Kai growled. "I’ll be fine.""Yes, you will.""What’s that supposed to mean, -" And Kai stopped as soon as he spotted Angela beside the road."I'm coming with," I mindlinked and switched back, naked beside the road.I'd been waiting for a car for about ten minutes. No one would travel this road this late at night, so I wasn’t worried someone else migh

Kai’s povThe first few days were just the fucker following me around. He didn’t say much, and I was grateful; I already had a beta and a gamma who wouldn’t shut up. Diego in particular, goddess, did he even have a filter? It was like every thought he had needed to be said out loud. Even if no one could fucking understand him anyway.I showed Darius around; he watched Hudson handle the books without seeing all of our finances, and Darius watched Diego train his soldiers. I had no fucking clue what we were doing. Is this how you train a future Alpha? Or do I need to put him to work too?Alpha Paul didn’t find shit in the ground, just like we expected, but he wasn’t finished yet. He still had a few days left, and he wanted to use them all. I think he was just stalling, so we couldn’t start building yet.Or it was because on the fifth night of the idiot staying here, while I was trying to sleep, little Darius secretly snuck out of his room and into the hallway.Did the fucker really think

Kai’s pov"So, you followed my advice?" Moon said, looking at Mary’s mark during breakfast.If Mary could blush, she would. Goddess, she looked mortified, but it was fucking funny to see that face of hers. I wondered if they finally had sex or tried he other stuff Moon told me about. I mean, I wouldn’t fucking mind seeing my mate touch herself.I looked at Diego, "now we really need to get that land."Diego nodded, "Si."Okay, chatty catty wasn’t really in the mood to talk this morning. He would probably tell me and Hudson everything later.Diego kissed Mary, and I gave Moon a good kiss before they left.Diego sighed, "I want Maria here, todo el tiemp [all the time]. Alfa Raider, cómo se hace esto? [Alpha Raider, how do you do this?]"I didn’t really understand that last part because it was in fucking Spanish, but I did know how he felt. "It’s fucking hard being away from Moon."Beta Hudson and his family came down for breakfast after Moon and Mary left, and it made me realize even mor
