The Alpha's Substitute Luna 38
Quin's POV Rejected, that is exactly how all of this feels like. Why, would he entertain me, make me look good in front of Lucinda, do all those nice things that made my body do flip jacks and kicks, only to push me away and pretend that I don't exist?Like, doesn't he feel the sparks and the energy and the heat?"Mommy, are you okay?" it was Echo. He is the one that helped me get to the attic. Although my senses are heightened, after the kiss I shared with Arthur, everything just started to smell like him, and for a second, everything just felt the same.So, my baby Echo helped me because he saw the whole thing. "I never asked, where did you see my wolf?" I divert of the said question, and I query about something else."I saw her in a forest," he declares."What forest?" I kneel in front of him. I'm pretty sure I've never shifted, and I don't think Lia can come out on her own. "When I had a bad dream, I saw her. She is black and white," I nod, but he further adds, "but she had a b

Quin's POV "No, no, no," I place mom's phone on the table and run to Arthur's forbidden attic. I pass Echo along the way and for some odd reason, he follows me without saying anything. When I get there, I don't knock, but I just barge in and this time, Arthur isn't shocked. "What do you want now?" he utters. He is seating on the couch that is looking at the door, with a drink on his hand. "Dawn is on her way with the cops. She is an hour away from here," I don't care about his sass at the moment because I know If I don't do anything, and merely take this as payback for treating me like trash, then this will go down. The legacy that they have built in Ezra will go up in flames and that amount of blood, I don't want on my hands."What?!" he is now up on his feet, yep, his eyes shows anger, betrayal, and hurt all at the same time."You led your people here?" he takes big strides toward me. "What, no! I wouldn't do that. She tracked my phone when Lia started talking then when I thre

Quin's POV "What deed?" mom inquires of. "Nothing that important, Echo continue," I try to shut that whole conversation down. "Wait no, go back, what deed?" my mom appeals to me again. "We kissed end of the story," I snap at her. "Doesn't seem like it," she mumbles. "Your eyes changed color. They were pink this time." My dear Echo adds. "How?" she invites, "What?" I mumble. It also came as a shock to me. I don't even feel it when my eyes change color."I don't know. But her eyes change color when she is feeling a certain way," He elucidates to my mom."Go on-," she adds. "Can we focus please?" I break in. I'm not feeling chatty about what went down in that room. "Oh we focusing alright, Echo, proceed." My mom interrupts."Mom!" she can't possibly be for real right now. What can she gain about talking about what went on in that room, or my eye color? Goodness, my eye color. Is that why Arthur moved away from me, he noticed them change into a shade he didn't recognize."Somethi

Quins POV "No, I can't let you go again. You barely called when you went there. What makes you so sure that you will check in?""I will," it's my mom, as she gets out of the car."And you are?" she tilts her head, and you can see it's like she's trying to find the resemblance between me, her, and Echo." I am her mother. The least I can do is this one right thing. Allow her time with her people and when she is ready, she will come back," she explains. I can tell she is shocked, and trying to process the whole thing of why my mom is even here in the first place. She looks at me and I shrug my shoulder."Fine," she sighs, shaking her head. "I don't know what's going on, but it already looks like you going through the most," she states.All I do is nod because I've been going through it."Just be safe okay? The next time I don't get what's going on, I promise to pull through without a warning," She doesn't say goodbye, but turns, and goes to the cops, they talk for a few minutes, she

Arthur's POV We get out of the car, two men are waiting for us. We get close, and they both bow down in courtesy."The council is waiting for you inside," they inform us."Lead the way." I urge them.They don't need to be told twice, and they lead the way even though I'm well aware of these grounds. I attended this place way too much before Accalia died.I can still hear her echos in my heart, her pleas for her innocence, and their final judgment to execute her. "What's your plan?" Sabre asks."To annoy them until they forget about the whole reason why they even invited me here," I elucidate."I'm sorry to ask Alpha, but why?" "If I were to explain and tell them about the whole break-in, they will easily dismiss me, and I don't want to tell them that this will start a war, because I don't want a war to start. But if I'm being pushed to the dead end, you best believe, I will not hesitate to retaliate."We continued our walk in silence, the walls of this place are dark and gloomy, th

Quin's POV "Why did you do it?" Arthur asks as we are being moved."Do what?" "Save me, lie, why did you?" he repeats."We are a team. If you go down, I go down and the pack will go down. Plus too, if I didn't, the punishment was gonna be there, maybe even worse." I try to justify."Well thank you," he whispers.A part of me is happy that we got a lighter sentence, or I hope we did because that would have been dumb to be locked up with him, having the same sentence he was gonna get in the first place.I was happy and sad for making that dumb decision of saving him and winning myself free jail life. Dumb kid Quinnzel, I'm certain I wouldn't do this if I was human. Dumb werewolf pull.My heart was beating out of my chest as we were being escorted to the prison cells. I've never been arrested, let alone in a place that will potentially be more gruesome than a normal prison. The whole time, my hand was intertwined with Arthur's, and I could tell he is calmer than me.Before we could l

Arthur's POV At this point, everything that happens in is the hands of the moon goddess because there is no way I can try and save this situation.I don't have outside contact, nor can I mind link Sabre because of the sulfide and the elders' ability to block the outside links to interact with the inside ones."Arthur, I can hear Echo," Quin interrupts me, in a whisper. Her voice in a semi-shock. "What?" "Echo, he is talking to me through the mind link," she continues."That's impossible, the links are blocked here. You can't get a link in or out," I state. That's impossible."I can ask him something only the both of you guys know so you will see that I'm not lying," she implies."Okay," she keeps quiet for a second and then says, "Malva pudding with strawberries." My heart stops for a millisecond. That's the dessert Echo had with Accalia before she was arrested by the counsel.I look away, and I don't wrap my head around them being able to bridge the mind-link."Do you think it's

Lucinda's POV True to his word, some men I've never seen escorted me out of Aquarius Waters and to say I wasn't happy to leave would be nothing but the truth wrapped in all my sorrow and anger.My heart broke every second I took a step from the pack house, and it was like the further I moved away, the more memories I was letting die out. When I passed Arthur's house, I asked them to stop for a second. In the driveway, I could see the top of his roof, and although I never stopped dreaming that one day I would rightfully be the wife of the man who owned the house, that dream crashed and burned a few hours ago.And I was close, so close, but then Doctor Quinnzel happened. With her ashy platinum hair with loose ends and awful blue eyes, she came in and took everything away from me. My love, my life, my home, everything I've known and grown to fall in love with, and adapted to. Does she know, or have any idea how hard it was to unlearn the way I was living in Windazare and be of the pe

It It Arthur's POV When I get to the door, I stop. What if Winter felt wrong? I know that twins have a connection bigger than mate bonds as they are one. So if one is anxious, the other would feel it as if they are there, if the one is hurt, the other would hurt in the same spot. But what if? Just, what if he felt wrong? "I will take over your body and enter this room if you don't," Ares warns me. I open the door and there she is, standing right there, touching her hair. My heart stops for a second. "Are you real?" I whisper, dropping my phone. Quinnzel pauses, and her heart picks up pace. The moment, it does, I rush and crash into her, hugging her a little too tightly. I take in her scent, it's still as intoxicating and strong. I grin, feeling a sense of completion with her around. "I am real," she coughs. "You squeezing too hard," she adds, and I loosen the grip."Sorry," I mutter, still hugging her. We just stand there, holding on to each other like the world is ending. I a

Quin's POV"Quin," I hear a voice calling me in the darkness and I stop. The voice is monotone, and I can't tell whether it's a man or a woman. I look around with my glowing eyes, but I see nobody. I look at Acai, who also shakes her head. But what I know and am certain of, somebody did call me, and it gave me chills. But I shrug my shoulders, and pretend we didn't hear anything and we continue walking. I am not sure how long I've been out here, and how much longer this has to go on.All I know is that I haven't been hungry or had the urge to use the toilet nor have I felt a tiny ping of wanting to sleep. This is discouraging because it feels like I've only walked for a day or two max and this might take more than that. "Quin," the voice calls out again. I stop yet again and look around to no avail, starting to get freaked out. I try to take a step to see if the voice calls out my name again, and this time I am not surprised, but freaked out. "Quinnzel O' Conner!" the voice beams,

Winter's POVIn approximately ten minutes, we meet Luca. From a distance, her medication spread is already ready to be utilized. Luca has an SUV, and her boot space is enough to assist Marie. We stop the car when we meet hers, and before Dawn gets out of the car, Luca gives Marie the first injection through the window so she she able to breathe. We then open the door, Dawn rushes to place Marie in the boot. Luca then injects Marie with a UV fluid on both arms, switches on a portal fan, and places the fan over her head."What's she doing with her?" she looks at me, anxiously."She's trying to get her energy back. Have you never seen her being treated?" I cue. "No, the doctors back in the city don't allow that," she clarifies. "Well, I always want to know what's happening. But don't worry, our daughter is going to be okay," I try to console her, whilst Luca opens her onesie and puts allergy pads on her chest."What are those?" she continues."Allergy pads. It's to level her breathing

Lucinda's POVAfter packing, I head down, and Shadow is on a phone call with someone, well, more like he is yelling at someone over the phone. "Don't tell me that Lucien! I specifically told you that the investors were coming in today, therefore the Maimi deal should be finalized by then," I could feel his anger radiating through the whole room, and I know that he feels my presence so he tried to finalize the call in a much calmer tone. "Can you please get this done before I get to the office? I will stall the guys. Is that possible?" he asks the other person whose name I believe is Lucien. He nods his head then and he ends the call."I can hear your heartbeat you know," he utters and I come into view. "Hey," I sheepishly laugh, waving."You ready to leave?" he inquires."Sure," I come down with my suitcase and he takes it and carries it for me."Sorry about that," he starts as we head towards the car."Sorry about?""The yelling. I was frustrated at Lucien. There is some work I as

Lucinda's POVAfter Queen Mother leaves, I feel lighter. Like I have someone I can trust. There is something about her that makes me want to tell her how I am feeling, and how much whatever I went through hurt me and she doesn't come with a judging heart or a mocking face, but she brings warmth, and for me, that is something I've always craved for, a friend. I hope she is one. I focus on what she asked me for. The wishlist. I sit on the couch and I start thinking hard and wide. What's the one thing that I've always desired? My list would be long if I would start from when I was a kid. But before I can jotter down anything, I call Meriya to help me get a pen and a paper. She comes back with it and I sit on the island to start my list. It doesn't have to be realistic, I tell myself, but it has to be what I've always wanted to do. Queen Mother said she would be a genie for one day, and maybe she could help me achieve these dreams.She doesn't have to help with everything, I mean, I th

Eliza's POVThe past two days were well spent. Lucinda is an interesting child indeed. Besides her life story that she thinks defines her, her character, her personality, her smile, and everything good reminds me of Rue. How she could have grown, how she would have smiled, what type of wolf she would carry, the strength she would possess, and with all that, how I would want to protect her. How I would want to see her happy. How I would want her to have all the love that she proceeds her.And when I look at Lucinda, I want all of this for her. The love, the happiness and the joy, as the Luna of this pack, and as my son's fiancee. I want her to have the best mother-in-law. I can be her in-law by the rules and regulations of this world, but I know that by now, our relationship as a family will be anything but quiet, random, and normal. It's gonna have flare, sparkles, and tiny big promises and everything she has ever wished for as a child, and what she desired as she grew up. "Roughly

Nanawe's POV"So, this is what is gonna happen gentlemen and esteemed ladies, I am going to go home and ask Miss Dawn, the future Luna of Windazare if she would fancy staying in Erza for a month, and if she says yes, consider yourselves lucky, and if not, well, good luck trying to convince her to stay. I mean, she already doesn't see eye to eye with the counsel since some people, I won't mention names, are so keen on having her killed." I clear my throat. "Nanawe!" Claudius calls out."Yes love?" I smile at him, tilting my head. No matter how angry this man is with me, I am still head over hills for him, I still act like a child. "Are you trying to rebel against the counsel?" he raises a question."Oh goodness no. I would never do that. This couple just reminds me of someone I didn't save before. I guess you could say I am trying to make amends for it," I look at Arthur, trying to not get emotional."Is this based on your emotions?" Phoenix replies and I can feel his aura being enra

Dawn's POVAfter getting ready as Queen Mother has instructed, I feel the need to visit Quin. Baby Marie will be staying with Nanna Ave, and Sabre will be keeping an eye on Quin and Echo. The rest of the house will be going. So when I am done, I quickly head to where Quin is sleeping. When I get there, Sabre is standing guard and he freely lets me in. I enter the room and Quin is just lying there. Her eyes are closed and for the first time, I want her to talk. Even if she will go on about neurosurgery or whatever she does, I just want her to open her mouth. I feel my breathing getting choked up, but still, I will myself to get closer to her. When I am within arm's length, I take her hand into mine, and I sit down, tears rolling down my eyes. "Hey Quin," I smile. "How are you, girl?" I wipe my tears. "So about the mate thing that you spoke about, well, you were right, I have one too," I chuckle. "Crazy right?""You know Winter? Yeah, his my mate, and he is the same Winter whom I've

Winters POVShe came for me. Yes, I know she was probably asked by my mom to check up on me, but the fact that she agreed to do it meant a lot to me. I am not sure how to respond to what my mom did to me, and in a way, I am trying to put myself in her shoes, but I am failing to comprehend how she did what she did and still lived without regret in her heart. For her to separate us to keep us safe is one thing, but choosing to let us stay separated is a choice she could have undone. I could have met my sister in the city if she wasn't sure how she would turn out, and we would have had a bond. I would protect her with my life and maybe then, I would have found my mate sooner. But no, she did what she did, and I don't know how to look at her without anger and disappointment in my heart. "Dawn, if your mom did what my mom did, what would you do?" I ask her. "I would slap her," she utters, seemingly contemplating her response."What?" I wasn't expecting that."That would be my first tho
