Chapter 39: Does It Really Matter Anymore?
Last Updated:
2024-10-29 19:42:56When I get her settled, I return to the door to talk with the security guards again and notice that there are only two of them who stayed. Looking back and forth between them, I ask, “Where did everyone else go?”
They stare at each other and shrug before answering one at a time, “I don’t know. I was watching the door and then they just walked off in a large group after they received a phone call.” Then Beta Timothy chimes in with, “Like he said, but I heard one of them say, “Well, he just called and said we can leave for the rest of the night.”
Concerned by this, I wonder who they were referring to. I should be the only one they are taking orders from. So, unless they are working for someone else, they must have thought that I called them. How could that be?
Clearing my throat, I glance around the surrounding area before stating, “That sounds like trouble, make sure t

The minute we get there, I check to make sure that it is safe and sound before I hurry to scoop her out of the car and take her inside. Opening the door slowly, I notice that it is unlocked and that concerns me a little, but perhaps Omega Dillon forgot to latch it when he left. What is even more concerning when I get inside, is the fact that the building has been ransacked.The furniture has been turned upside down and some things are strewn all over the front room. “What will the rest of the cabin look like?” I begin to wonder while turning over the small couch and a chair in the living room.When I reach the back bedroom, I see it lying there on the floor. A dead deer that looks strangely familiar and then I remember it. If I am not mistaken, this is the same mother that protected her fawn the same night that I first met Arabella. Now I am saddened by the prospect that I may find the fawn dead al
The Luna's Mate: The Alpha King Chapter 41: Eric
Now that we are in the clear and close to Eric’s, I tell Arabella where we are going. It has been several hours and in between the time we had a close call and now, she fell asleep for a while. However, right at this moment, she is staring at me and asking, “When will we get there?” In that tone a small child gets when she wants to annoy her parents.Shrugging, I refuse to bite and just look ahead for about ten minutes, before I answer as I turn off the main road to his house, “We will be there in about five minutes.” With a stern tone to my voice and then I turn my head briefly to smile at her.I certainly don’t want her to think I am mad at her, but I don’t want to fight either and right at this moment, I think we have been alone in this car far too long together. Turning to stare at me while I drive, I feel her eyes on me and the glance over at her quickly. “What’s up?” I ask because
The Luna's Mate: The Alpha King Chapter 42: From The Beginning
“Who’s here?” I hear Eric yell throughout the house in a warning voice as he walks down the hallway with his heavy tread and then stops just outside the door.Looking from Arabella to the door, I notice that she is a little too close to it, so I push her back just in time. He kicks it open and then stares at me with a shocked look on his face. Automatically smiling when the recognition registers in his eyes, I know that he remembers me, and everything will be alright. Sure, it has been several years since I have seen him last, but it hasn’t been so long that he wouldn’t recognize me. After all, I have hardly changed since then.“Oh my god, what are you doing here?” He asks in a boisterous voice, while stepping in and holding his arms out to give me a hug. “It has been so long since I have seen you last. Ever since Samantha’s funeral, I expected you to come back and visit. Ye

“I wonder why they won’t leave?” Arabella whispers to me after walking over to where we are sitting and placing her hand gently on my shoulder.When I glance up at her, she is wearing a fake smile on her face. I begin to wonder if this is getting to be too much for her, but then I open my mouth to mention quietly, “Probably, because they know we are here someplace. They just can’t smell us, so it is driving them insane. I think that is why they are tearing the place apart, in hopes of us coming out.”“Well, obviously there is no way that they would surprise us. Making so much noise, we would have to be stupid to walk out now.” Eric furrows his brow before looking back down at a paper in his hands.He reads it silently and then he turns to me before saying, “Apparently, when my dad had this place built 8 years ago, he had a back door installed. Now we just have t

Fearing the worst, I was right. I didn’t get to him in time, so we head to the front of the house. When we get to the vehicles, five men surround us before I can get Arabella safely inside.As soon as I have her lock the car door, I turn around and face them like a real man. I scan the area and notice two things. Four of them have already started to change, the other one is still in his human form.Not too sure why he hasn’t changed, I don’t care either. Soon enough, I will be knee deep in blood and guts, so the last thing on my mind is why he hasn’t changed. Glancing around one last time while they continue to change, I see something in the distance I didn’t expect.Beta Daniel and Beta Richard are poised just behind the trees, ready to pounce. Pleased by this and relieved, I nod to them just before they attack, and I lead the advances. Crying out, “Die!” I sla
The Luna's Mate: The Alpha King Chapter 45: Alpha John
“When did he take over exactly?” I ask in an agitated tone, because now I realize that I must take back my throne besides worrying about Arabella.“Yesterday afternoon. There had been whispers of your death running around the castle, and I suppose he must have been fueling them. Just afterwards, he declared that he was the rightful ruler now. No one stood in his way, so now he is wearing the crown and sitting in your spot.” She pauses while staring at me and the blood covering my hands before saying, “You look like you ran into some trouble. Did someone try to take you out like they said?”Clearing my throat, I state, “Yes, I did. Apparently Alpha John has decided to take me out, but it didn’t work so well.” I hesitate before asking, “Have you seen Arabella by chance?”“Yes. She had stopped by just a bit ago with someone else, but then they left.&nbs

Driving for hours, the sun starts to come up in the distance as I stare down the long road in front of me. It is a beautiful sunrise with shades of orange and purple. Even a hint of pink shows through the mountainside when I drive along the asphalt, as I hope to find them before she gives birth. Or at least find them safe and sound if nothing else. I honestly don’t think I could live another day, if I found out that she is dead. She is my heart and soul now and nothing else matters except for her and the pups. I live and die for them, and them only. Realizing that, I feel a tear escape the corner of my eye and then I quickly raise my hand to wipe it away. Why? Why now of all times?” I murmur under my breath while shaking my head. I glance in the rearview mirror and see a rabbit on the side of the road foraging for food. He is just sitting there calmly, as if the world could do him no wrong. However,

“Eric, what would you do if you were in my position?”I glance over at him while waiting for an answer, but when he doesn’t say anything right away, I approach him to get his attention.“Eric, are you alright?” I say a little louder this time.Glancing up at me, he hesitates and then answers finally. “Yeah, I was just thinking. If I were you, I would make sure that everyone knows you mean business by cleaning the house of all the pests? Do you still have confidants in the castle?”I nod, and then he continues, “Well, then I would have them figure out who was involved and tell you. It is so much easier for them to hear conversations than it is for you. People always pay special attention when authoritative figures are around, but not so much when a lone person is lurking in the shadows. I think this is what your dad would have done if nothing else. Then, and onl

“Dad.” I turn to see Tonya smile and then she starts dancing in her baby blue leotard and tutu on her tiptoes.She has the lead in the ballet tonight, and we are all dressed up in our suits and ball gowns. The pups are so much bigger now, they look like they are at least 6 years old. In their suits and dresses, they look like they are ready to take on the world.It’s amazing that just last year they were newborn pups and couldn’t even walk, let alone hold a conversation with an adult. Looking at them now, I think to myself, “Wow, they are smarter than I could possibly ever imagine. Every time I turn my back, the boys are getting into mischief, while the girls are learning everything, they can about the world around them.Tonya stops and then looks at her watch before declaring, “It’s time!” To all of us with great excitement as she bounces out the door to the car.I smile so pro
The Luna's Mate: The Alpha King Chapter 62: What Do We Do With Them?
Hearing Arabella’s voice and what she said, I briefly turn towards her and then I hear the witch speaking again. As I turn around to face her, I see that she has turned the page and quickly starts speaking another spell. Her lips move like lightning and then I stop her suddenly when I rip out her tongue, by grasping it between my forefinger and thumb.Horrified by this, she cries and tries to scream, but can’t. The whole thing is terrifying to watch and all the people in the room watching gasp before shielding their eyes from the black blood that seeps out of where her tongue was just a moment before. When she finally stops and stares at me, I hurry and tie her back up before rushing over to the pups.On my way to Arabella, I look back and see the warlock trying to stand up. I yell to the guards, “Make sure they stay down, I will be back in a second. I need to make sure that the pups are alright before I continue.&r

“What is that noise?” I whisper to Arabella before climbing out of bed.It is 3 in the morning and everything else is quiet except for a scratching sound in the wall. Hearing it again, we glance at each other as I walk over to the wall to investigate further. When it stops suddenly, I stand still in hopes of finding what is causing it.The minute it starts again, I rush towards the wall and then thump on it to scare whatever is inside. Then I hear it, the soft scurrying of little feet. “Shit!” I exclaim when I see the mouse run across the floor just below me.Now we must get a mouse trap and see if we can catch it. If we are lucky, it won’t take long, and I don’t have to lie in bed another night with that awful scratching. It is times like these that I really wish I didn’t have inhuman hearing, because every scratch or scurry of little feet, sends chills up and down m
The Luna's Mate: The Alpha King Chapter 60: Alpha Jason Part 2
Lying still in bed, I wait for someone to show up with my eyes closed. Waiting for maybe 2 hours before I hear someone at the door, I am rewarded when the doorknob slowly turns. When the door creaks, I wait patiently until heavy footsteps cross the floor.Suddenly, the footsteps increase in speed and then I open my eyes and turn over. Seeing him lunge at me with his claws out and his golden eyes wider than normal, I recognize Alpha Jason right away, even though it is dark in my room. I move quickly and dodge his attack, only to roll off the bed and onto the floor, before jumping onto my feet.He turns and then in a flash he is in my face again. “How he is faster than I am?” I wonder while he tries to kill me, and then I see the vampire in the door, he must have used Jason to get to me.That is how he is moving so fast. Figuring this out, I inspect his neck as I fight off his lashes. Yes, he

“Shh. Don’t wake up the pups.” I warn Beta Bellamy before walking out of their room.When we reach the hallway and I shut the door behind me, I ask him, “Now what is it that you wanted?”He stares at me for a few seconds before answering my question, “Alpha Jason is telling everyone that he is about to challenge you for the throne. What are you going to do about it?” He stands there awaiting my answer.“Nothing.” I state while shrugging my shoulders and then starting to walk down the stairs to the kitchen.“Stop.” He demands and then I turn around to face him once again.“My king, you must do something, anything. My allegiance is to you and no other. If he takes over, everyone here still loyal to you, will be beheaded and their families will be either banished or the same fate will come of them.” Staring at me with his hand on my
The Luna's Mate: The Alpha King Chapter 58: Daddy
It’s been several months since that day, and now looking back at it, I realize that I was completely wrong. I should have never touched Kelly or even had that reaction to her at all. Now, I don’t know what to do anymore, because even though Arabella has largely forgiven me, I really do not think she will ever completely.I love her and the pups so much, but I can see it in her eyes. The way she stares at me with longing, I know that she won’t allow herself to do anything about it because of what I have done. This has dominated my thoughts for days, even when I play with the pups and they ask me, “Daddy what’s wrong?” For our kind tend to grow much faster and stronger than humans ever have.They obviously are already talking in simple sentences and learning their alphabet. After all, they are their Daddy’s pups. I smile every time I think about them and their little quirks. “Boy, t

Figuring out what to get her is proving to be far more difficult than I thought it would be. After a night of rolling around on the couch, I am tired and stumped. What can I get her that will make her eyes pop out? I need something to awe her and that says I love you so much that you are the only woman in the world.While wracking my brain, Beta Jody walks in and hands me a cup of coffee. “You look like you need it, this morning. How are things going with Ms. Arabella as of late?” She frowns as she says it, because she knows that there is something going on and I won’t say.I shake my head and then state, “Nothing that is of any concern, I just can’t think of the perfect present. I need something that says, I can only love you and no one else.”“What did you do?” She asks suddenly when sitting down on the couch next to me.Her eyes tell it all when a tear forms and t
The Luna's Mate: The Alpha King Chapter 56: It Begins
“Come quickly!” I hear someone yell before I even get a chance to close my eyes for the night.Climbing out of bed, I hurry to put my clothes back on after briefly staring at my blood-stained hands.Tonight, has been a bad night already. Now what?As I open the door that faces the stairs, I scan the area before walking out and shutting the door behind me. The commotion seems to be stemming from downstairs, so I rush down the stairs to find Alpha Emery and Alpha Frederic duking it out. Not knowing what the issue is at hand, I stand back and ask, “What is going on?” To Omega Theodore who is standing directly next to me and watching them.He turns to face me and replies, “Alpha Frederic has raped Alpha Emery’s mate and now they are in a fight to see who she will stay with. Alpha Emery has said that now that Alpha Frederic has had her, he won’t ever touch her again, but it doesn’t mean he

“Do you remember when we first met?” Arabella stares at me as she asks with an angelic look on her face.Immediately before this, I was about to confess to her how I had betrayed her with Omega Kelly, but when she asked me that, it completely threw me off guard. I turn to her and fake a smile, because honestly, the last thing on my mind right now is the first time we met. Instead, all I can think about is how she will hate me when she finds out that I had sex with Kelly. Most of all, there is absolutely no way I can tell her how many times, because then she will know it wasn’t just a mistake.As the guilt builds deep inside, I try my hardest not to yell and state in a moderate tone, “Yes, I do. You were at the rave, where you were almost eaten.” I fake a smile as my head starts to throb.She opens her mouth to speak, and then says, “I remember seeing you for the first time and wondering why the other gu
