VIVIANA
“Are you certain, Luna?” Came the stammering words from Noah. Was he having a hard time? I nodded blankly, not knowing why he asked me such a question. I didn’t smile this time. It would add to his lame doubts only.
“Why? Can’t you even do that, Noah?” I narrowed my eyes at him.
He looked at me with a strange expression. He needed some time to gulp this all.
“I- I will get it done, Luna,” Noah said and ran away. I was in my thoughts. I had to confront Mr. Garter. There was much more to him than just a feeling I had in the pit of my core. And I, Viviana Miracle, was going to find that.
“You want me to sniff him?” Miracle sounded thrilled. I rolled my eyes at her. When was she not? It was once in a lifetime opportunity for her. How could she let it slip from her paws?
“Yeah! Noah dodged my humble request with his mannerism. So, I guess we are on our own. But…. Let
VIVIANA “Must you do that? In this way? You dragged me here, without my will? Let me go, you little nasty girl. Right now.” Mr. Garter whined and whined. He never stayed silent the whole way.I covered my ears reflexively. It was so hard and difficult to deal with a man who keeps bickering.“Don’t you know how to shut your bloody mouth, old man?” I turned to look at him. Mr. Garter smirked.Now, what was with this smirk?“Let me go. If the news reached Alpha Alaric, you will be punished. I am a respected member of the werewolf counsel. You are nothing.” He sneered.I gestured for Winter to drop him over the chair ahead of him and chain him. He did. Mr. Garter kept staring at Winter.I stood straight and crossed my arms over my chest. I radiated dominance. I was the one to rule. How dare he call me a nasty little girl!“Good work, Winter. Let him be like
ALARIC Viviana had me whipped with her puppy-eyed look. I couldn’t deny anything she said. I had to let her wander on the premises of The Samara. But I was restless. Moon had been trying to calm me down, but I was over the edge.“Moon, you can link with Miracle, right? Connect with her and ask about Viviana’s whereabouts.” I almost ordered Moon. He sighed in the back of my mind.I wasted nearly an hour pacing back and forth in the pack office. Noah had been to Goddess knows where! That brat! He always sneaked around in times of need. I rubbed my palms and waited for Moon to reach Miracle.He growled after a few seconds. Those seconds passed like years.“I tried. But Miracle is out of reach.” Moon mumbled in a low incoherent voice.“What do you mean? You can’t reach Miracle? But you marked her, and she did too. Why can’t you reach her?&rdquo
VIVIANA “Take your seat, Killian. We have a business to do.” I ordered Killian Garter. He was standing like a statue. He didn’t utter any words, just some inaudible whispers. He kept switching his gaze between me and the sun.Winter approached me again with my clothes.“Luna, you can put these on if you feel like it.” He stepped back after I got a hold of my clothes and put them on. The fire was intense enough to burn anyone who approached me. But it wasn’t anything to me. It was a shield. Normal on the inside, burning on the outside.I never knew Miracle was capable of doing all these things. She was way too powerful. What if I could t have controlled her back then! She must have killed Killian Garter. He was the only hope in this scenario. I pushed those thoughts back and composed myself.The walls, the chains, the gloominess were all gone. It was replaced by a terror. That terror was
VIVIANAI groaned in sleep. Something was weighing over my tummy. I opened my sleepy eyes and looked around. Oh, I was in the wild, near the lake. We didn’t go home last night!I tried to turn around, but Alaric's arm kept me from moving. He pushed into me more from behind. My ass kissed his crotch. His lips found their way over my back. I sniffed myself.I reeked of sex. Wild. Crazy. Rough. Dominant and wanting sex. We had sex! Oh, crap. I was in heat last night?“No, you weren’t. But you will be soon.” Miracle entered.“Why can’t you leave me alone for a second, Miracle? It’s just the morning for Christ’s sake!” I was irritated. Miracle chuckled. Oh! She won’t leave. How could she! We were a part of each other.I felt Alaric's hardness push into me from behind. Sudden! It was so fucking sudden! I gasped. He was so hard. His raspy breaths reverberated in my ears with every stroke.
VIVIANA Numbness was a strange emotion for me. I experienced it before. Only once. When the woman made it to my mind. She played everything like a movie. She almost haunted me.This was the second time. The Blood Wind Valley had something in its name. I pushed it way too much. Witch! I didn’t want to go that far. Only if the woman didn’t murder my parents!Killian looked into my expressions. I was quiet. I didn’t know what I was feeling. Was I stunned? Was I agitated? Was I angry? Was I shocked? Was I afraid? What was it? I couldn’t decipher this. I stood. I made my way towards the exit. Killian’s voice stopped me.“I can see you are disturbed. Angered.” He cracked laughter. A weird one. “No matter how strong you are Sun-wolf Luna, at the end of the day, You. Are. Scared. You are scared of the witches. But only the witches can help you this time.” Killian laughed like a mania
ALARIC Never had I ever had any doubts when it came to Viviana. She was not just my mate, the Luna of this pack. She was much more. Way more. She was my everything. She claimed my heart with her eyes and now she rules it with her mind.Viviana was my woman, my love, and my only partner in this life. I couldn’t even think about being without her. That thought itself was suffocating.Father told me to believe her. I did. Even when she lied to me. I still didn’t cross-question her. Why? Why she didn’t want me to get involved with her affairs? It drove me insane. I yelled.Noah kept standing in his place. He didn’t say anything. He didn’t do anything. He just reported about Selena. I was in the pack office. And my mind was with my lady love. My Viviana.What must she be doing right now? Would she like again, if asked? I was getting anxious. Uneasiness it was.“Noah! Let’s go ho
VIVIANA Mr. Garter was sent home safely. I made sure that Winter did the job. Baspo joined me outside the packhouse. I was confused? Well, I wasn’t. I made a promise to myself. I couldn’t turn back now. I didn’t know what to do? Where to start? I was going insane.The voices in my head made me insane. Alaric’s words, Alpha dad’s suggestions, Mr. Garter’s grinning face, and Miracle’s nagging. These things made a loop and I was stuck in that for now.I reflexively covered my ears. Baspo cleared his throat.“My Luna, are you okay?” His voice held concern. I managed myself and nodded. I wasn’t okay, but I had to. For Alaric. I couldn’t let him sense this.Miracle had been a good wolf. She didn’t need to be told again. She would stay silent till I feel like confessing everything to Alaric. At least, that was a relief.My sole motto was to find that
ALARIC I was raging in anger and madness. I kept shouting at my wolf. I kept urging Moon to locate Miracle and Viviana. Every time, every fucking time, Moon came up with… nothing. He couldn’t locate Viviana. To topple that, Selena added fuel to the fire. She said that Viviana was not in the Samara Plateau anymore.“Fuck!” I yelled at top of my lungs. My hands grabbed my hair. Tight. So tight. It didn’t hurt much. I tightened my grip even more. There was the pain. I liked it. It soothed me. It didn’t calm me. Just soothed me for the time being.“Warriors, I want every single one of you in front of me, in five seconds,” I ordered the pack soldiers using mind-link. I had to find Viviana before something happened.“Alpha! Luna could have gone to the city. She had a life there.” Noah suggested. He shut his mouth when I glared at him. He knew better what to do in th
