The Alpha's Substitute Luna 75
Lucinda's POV"Wow, you have said a lot," Eliza comments. I am not sure how to respond to that, so I just nod."So, how did my son convince you to be his fiancee?" she adds smiling."Is that the only thing you caught in my whole venting?" I chuckle, relaxing."No, it was the easiest to start with. I won't say I understand your need to kill, but I understand your emotion of betrayal, the discomfort that you are in, and how misused you feel. I get that. You gave your all to this man, and well, he hurt you, and to what extent, you alone know the whole truth about that. You know the deep cut it made and the emotional hit you had to endure, with the pack, with Arthur, even with your wolf. And how you view things, for now, makes sense, and as you slowly let Shadow love you, you will understand how much worth you have to those who deserve you." When she says, it's like a balm to my pain, anger, and hurt. My feelings suddenly feel valid and important, and for the first time, they feel raw and

Arthur's POVNobody had to be told twice as we all rushed to the bedroom where Quin was. When we get there though, her eyes are still closed and she is still sleeping. "Echo," we all look at him in irritation."I swear, her hand moved and she was starting to open her eyes. I didn't wait to see more and I rushed to get you in case she wanted to say something," he tries to defend himself.Mother goes to her side, and checks her pulse. "She's awake," she confirms. The room goes into an uproar, and we start hugging each other. It's like the tension that had built up was unexpectedly tumbling down."She just needs to rest now," she continues."How long before she opens her eyes? " Dawn cues."That's for her to decide. The worst is over, and maybe you going to head home before the week culminates," she smiles. Relief washes over me like a wave and I can feel myself finally breathe. Quin is awake. Echo was right when he said Quin would wake up sooner than we expected, he was right. I pic

Dawn's POVHe is here. Winter is here. Of all the places, he is here, whilst I am looking for a mate. What in the world am I doing?Marie is only a few months old, and I am not very keen on dating anyone. So what am I doing?'You trying not to die', my subconscious reminds me.Right, I nod. Don't die. That's the mission."What's going on?" Queen Mother stops me when I get to the kitchen, whilst she is still chopping onions. "Winter is here, like as in here, in human form," I mumble, starting to pace around, talking to myself, "He is here," I nod, finally letting it hit that this is true. Winter is outside, with Arthur, and in a few minutes, he will enter this house and we can talk. But what is he doing here?"Alpha Winter is here?" Queen Mother invites, and she stops what she is doing and looks at me."You guys know Winter?" I stop pacing around and look at them."And what do you mean Alpha Winter? You mean to say he is like Arthur?" I try to blink away the confusion but fail. Winter

Dawn's POV"Okay, so you know Winter right?" I seat upright and face the kid."You mean Alpha Winter?" he corrects me."Yes, I keep forgetting his is that, but yeah him, he is my mate and the father of my child," I blurt out. "Well, I didn't know that he was the Alpha, and I met him in the city, in a bar, by chance, and then bam, one thing led to another, and well, Marie happened and well, we are here," There, I said it. I am conflicted about how he is going to believe what I have just said. "Well, that's a story," I could tell that he is conflicted on my behalf. Right?" In that moment of defeat, I close my eyes and lean on the headboard. Someone knocks on the door. I open my eyes and it's Quin's mother. She enters the room and I can feel myself getting annoyed."Are you here to add more insults because I can leave you with your daughter and grandson?" I propose, ready to stand up and go. I am not in the mood to entertain the likes of her at the moment. She stands at the door and I

Dawn's POV"You not giving me a chance to be mad at you," I utter in a whisper, and he stops."Granted I took the wrong number, but I've been mad at you for as long as I've known you because you didn't get back to me, and, I can't be unmad at you just because of that," "Okay, what do you want to do?" he turns and looks at me. "I still wanna be mad and you," I state."Why?""Because I thought you hated me, and that you were a liar, and well, when I told you about Marie, you just left me to read. Granted, it wasn't your number, I've already painted a picture of who you are, and I can't unpaint it as yet because I was hurt, and I am still hurt. I thought all of it was a lie. The long talk, you comforting me, I thought you just did it to get me to do your bidding," I explain."Dawn…I would never," he kneels in front of me and takes my hands into his, "Well, I didn't know that because I never got to hear your side of the story. Every text that came through I thought it was yours, but th

Arthur's POV "So, what do you think?" he asks me. "Do you think I can be a good dad?" we are now outside after Winter has had the chance to hold his baby, shed a few tears, and was able to make her sleep for the first time. Well, we were at the beach, and Dawn was still mad at him. A power couple indeed."Of course you will," I chuckle, placing my arm around his neck."But how do you know that, and can be so sure of it?" "Man, the fact that you even asking about it means that you are going to try your best and that is the best you can do for your daughter anyway." I advice."Woah, this is the first time you've been like this," he adds, relaxing and closing his eyes, just sunbathe."Been like what?" I turn to him."Accommodating, friendly, and welcoming." "But I've always been like that," I comment, I shake my head. "Not as a brother no. As someone with whom I am acquainted too yes, and maybe even as a stranger, we would, on some occasions pass as one, but as a brother no, I don't

Quin's POVI heard them. My brother, mother, and Arthur. I heard them fight about us, and I didn't like it at all. Winter was mad. Not just mad. He was mad sad, and my mom wasn't giving herself any justice by just saying she was hurting. Is she kidding me?I am also mad at her now. I mean, I know I forgave her, or I hope I did, but is this her best defense?"I hope it's not," I mutter to Acai. The outside noise shuts down, and I am left with Acai beside me. She is more majestic that I pictured her to be. "Where are we anyways?" I look around and it's just dark. I can see in the dark, but there are just miles and miles of darkness. "I don't know, I just know that we are rebooting," she states."Why?" I look over to her."Why not?" she shrugs. "Acai..." I drag."Okay fine. I think moon goddess wolf' got hurt and she rebuilding or recreating herself in you, if that makes sense,""How do you know?" I tilt my head, stopping for a second. "I don't know, I just do." I continue with her.

Nanewe's POV"Don't you wanna check if Winter is okay?" I suggest to Dawn."Nope, I am fine honestly," she immediately rejects it, crossing her legs. "Please," Arthur begs."No," she shakes her head. "I plead with you," Ave intercepts."Why is everyone so worried about him? He is old enough to cry himself to sleep," she sighs, looking frustrated and annoyed. "It would be normal if he didn't just find out that he might have not met his sister ever," Ava adds in her muffled voice. "Okay, I am trying to judge you or anything, but that's just lowkey dark," Dawn comments."Now, can you do it?" Ave repeats. "Fine, but I have a condition," At this point, the conversation is between Dawn and Ave. "What is it?" Ave cues, looking like she has finally achieved something good. "I need a place to sleep in," Dawn conditions. "I can do that. You can have my bed so long as you are here," she smiles. "Okay, deal." she smiles it out and rushes out the door.****Dawn's POVThe moment I am out

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
