UNLOVING THE ALPHA 12. Tate
"You want me that much?" Alpha Lennox asked. The corner of his lips lifted as if he had confirmed something. He may be thinking I was an easy girl, that I liked him that much. Fine. Alpha Lennox could think whatever he wanted as long as he kissed me. I shrugged and said, "I want to know if you still have an effect on me after you rejected me. If you are that scared that you might have feelings for me, then we don't have to seal the deal with a—"My eyes widened when Alpha Lennox suddenly pulled me into him and kissed me thoroughly on my lips. That was unexpected. I did not react at first, taken off guard. Eager that much? What if he secretly desired me? That he was only hiding his feelings because I was an omega? What if I was successful like Zoe? Will he accept me?Shut up, Keira. This man loved Zoe—something he could not give to you. I shivered when sparks flew between us, with our bond strengthening more than ever. I could feel his wolf for a moment between our bond. He pu

Back when I was staying at this pack, I already knew Tate had a sick sense of humor and never made the situation serious. Like now. I almost believed him for a moment. Almost.Alpha Lennox looked at me hard as if by doing that he could check if Tate was kidding or not. However, like him, I was also confused. The thick tension spread among the three of us. As if these two were mates. As if they both wanted me and I could not choose between them. Knowing I had to say something to lighten the mood, I chuckled saying, "Stop kidding, will you? Alpha Lennox might believe you.""I am not, doll." He was not, but his facial expression was amused. "It's okay for me. I have known you for a long time. I will have no problem adjusting to your personality."Such beautiful words. Almost unrealistic.But no.If what he was saying was true, I could not afford to ruin our relationship. I sucked in a breath, my irritation surfacing. Giving Tate my most poisonous glare, I said, "Not now, okay? You can

14. Plans for the Future?The first words that came to my mind were, “Yes! I will be marrying your son! I will take the plunge and give you a dozen grandchildren that your back will hurt from looking after them.”I love Lennox. I still did. But reconciling with him and mending the bond was not the reason why I came here. Besides, there was Zoe. He loved her. Truly loved her. I was about to say the opposite words in my mind, but Alpha John was looking at us with hopeful eyes. Dang.My guilt was eating me. It felt like a tiny dagger was stabbed straight into my chest. If he knew the truth, he will die fast. That is why you should push through with your plan. Marry Lennox. How will I manage to kill the hope in his eyes? What if giving him a grandchild was enough to make him want to live again?“Dad. That is something Keira and I had not discussed,” Alpha Lennox stated, rushing on my defense. I gave him a relieved expression. “Why? Almost all mated pairs are either having a child

Lennox still wanted Zoe back. Something I was expecting before. I totally got it. He perfectly showed me how much the woman mattered to him. He was vocal about it. The problem was me. I could not help myself but get affected by it.“Why don’t you just tell your Father you are in love with someone else?” I suggested. Even if breathing was painful. Damn. How long will I continue to love this jerk despite him being clear on who he loved? “Tell Father about Zoe so that he will die of a heart attack? No. He will know about Zoe if it is the right time.”“When will you know if it is already the right time?”He shrugged his broad shoulders. “Gut feeling, perhaps.”“Good for you,” I said. “Congratulations in advance. I will be happy for you. The only problem is how you will tell your Father about it. If he is still alive by that time.” And during those times, I will disappear and will make sure Lennox and my path would never cross again. For good.“I will be happy if Father will be alive.

My vision blurred as I made my way to Tate's room. My chest felt heavy as if a million needles were stabbing it. Insensitive bastard. When Lennox thinks he can no longer control me, he leaves me hanging. He regrets bringing me here? Well, I also regret dancing at that club. If only I did not dance there, our paths would never meet again. Plus, did he have to rub on my face that I was not loveable compared to Zoe? Then, what about our agreement? Did he think I liked returning here? Damn him! I did not know how I reached Tate's room while cursing Lennox in my mind. Until I realized I was already standing outside his room. No one was in the hallway. No one saw me. I sucked in a breath. This was not the right time to be crying. All I wanted was to speak with him, to unload this heavy feeling in my chest. Tate was a great listener. He had proven it to me when I was an omega of the pack. I knocked on the door, and on the third knock, Tate welcomed me. I peered inside. N

“Are you done talking about your wedding for tomorrow?” Alpha John continued when Lennox and I could not respond. “Are there problems? Tell me, and I will help you solve it. Son, do not cancel your wedding. I will be sad if you do that. Unless it is a valid excuse.”I gulped. Lennox and I shared a look, confused about how I will tell Alpha John the news—that I had no plans of marrying his son.I stiffened when I felt a slight push on my mind. Suddenly, the alpha’s voice rang in my mind. ‘If you can stomach breaking Father’s heart, do it,’ Lennox muttered, using our mind links. ‘Tell him you change your mind, Keira.’ I gasped. I never experienced being called through our links. I was always set aside. ‘Don’t make him wait.’ It was a plain statement. No threat. No urgency. All the werewolves in a pack were connected to their alphas. It was also a convenient way of communicating within the pack. I had no real explanation of how it worked. It just worked that way.“Well? Will nobody

Wait. Wait. Wait. What the heck was happening here? Why did he ask for my hand? This was fake. Everything was fake. It was not necessary to give me anything. I pulled my hand away, but Alpha Lennox won't let me. "I'm asking, Keira," he whispered softly. "This is for formality.""Are you okay, Alpha?" I asked. "I don't understand what you are doing right now." But it did make my heart beat wildly against my ribcage. I was elated at his gesture and it would be more memorable if this was all real. My toes curled under the blanket.Why did he have to make everything difficult for me to forget my feelings about him? If only.I glanced at the alpha and saw his cheeks go scarlet. "You don't have to ask everything I did. Just answer, okay?""You don't have to be angry about it. I am curious. You are not usually like this.""Again. For formality. Someone might ask us how I ask for your hand."I scratched my brow. "This is not romantic, Lennox." It was. Boy, it was. "You're not exerting any

Out of habit, I stepped back. But I realized what I had done. Now, Alpha John and the rest of the guests were looking at me with weird looks.I felt the world spin. My head felt light. 'What's horrifying with a kiss, Keira? It will only be a simple kiss. If you want, you can think it is the beta kissing you,' Alpha Lennox taunted. 'You badly wanted him, right?'What's horrifying? The mere fact that kissing him affected me is the reason for crying out loud! Of course, I would be expecting more from the alpha. That Alpha Lennox might love me in the end. That there might be a chance between us. 'I did not allow anyone to kiss me. Not even Tate. But if he is the only man in this world, I would be willing to kiss him.'''Really? It does not show. You were willing to dance in the strip club, yet you cannot kiss me? Keira. The others might think that something is wrong. They are waiting. Kiss me or I will be the one to kiss you. And when I do, I will make it the most memorable kiss of you

UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 28]
KEIRA:I was taken aback by Lennox’s honesty. He rarely showed his emotions to me. And when he did, it was the most tender expression I witnessed.My heart fell for him.I was about to console him when hurried footsteps were heard.The back of my hair stood as if it could sense an enemy. "Alpha Lennox!" It was Alpha Bryan together with his daughter beside him. His eyes darted at our joined hands. "What is the meaning of this?"Lennox put me on his back, protecting me from Alpha Bryan's murderous look."It is what it is, Alpha Bryan."His eyes narrowed into thin slits. "Are you forgetting what we had agreed? The wedding will happen next week!""The wedding won't happen. My apologies, Carmela."The woman secretly sighed in relief without her father knowing. Wait. She did not like Lennox? Why?Do you have to know? Not all women liked an alpha like him. It's good for you, Keira. Less competition in yourself. You can focus on the problem at hand— Alpha Bryan. "You know what will happen
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 27]
KEIRA:I knew it would be difficult for Lennox to answer my call for help. So it was no longer a surprise when he said, “I cannot.”Right then, I realized he no longer cared about me. His words and actions no longer matched. I gave up. Letting go was much easier than clinging to him. ‘Okay. I understand your decision, Lennox.’Did I? I could not.But what choice did I have? I had to return my focus to Ace. My eyes went back to the fight when the crowd cheered. The fight had already begun and I didn't even notice it. It was only a few minutes of talking to Lennox but Ace was already losing. He was bloody and beaten to a pulp by his brother Kent. “You said you trained him!” I cried out.“I did, Miss Keira. But Kent is stronger than his brother. He had already trained since he was a child. Among the sons, Alpha Bryan had high regard for him,” he growled. I covered my mouth to stop the sob from escaping my mouth.I cannot watch Ace like this. He was only a boy who was forced to honor
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 26]
KEIRA:My heart was pounding loudly against my ribcage as I waited for the match to start. The rest of the batches had already started and winners were already declared. Except for Ace. His name wasn’t called yet. I squeezed my sweaty palm now and then. It felt like I was also part of the match. I did not know what I should be feeling right now.I wanted to stop the match while Ace was not yet in the arena. But how? That man had already made up his mind. We were in the oval-shaped arena and the crowd was already thick. It was a ten-minute break before the next match. Was Ace okay there? The guards did not allow us to see him for the last time. No matter how much we tried to change his mind, he would not escape. Until I gave up and turned my attention to looking for Lennox. But I failed to find him. Was it only me or he was evading my presence?Why? He was not yet prepared to face me? He looked like he was indeed guilty. Solomon tried to look for him, but he could not find him. O
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 25]
KEIRA:Ace automatically hides me on his back, protecting me from his father. He snarled at him as if he would fight the alpha if worse came to worst. Solomon was on high alert as if he would fight hand in hand with Ace. "Son!"Solomon was now beside me. "Are you two starting to fight against me?"The tension escalated, swallowing me whole. The air was so thick that breathing was hard. Peeping in front of me, I can verify that Ace was a photocopy of his father. Their eyes. Mouth. Nose. And everything looked alike. They could pass as twins if not for the fine lines on the alpha’s forehead and around his eyes. Aside from that, they looked like they were sewn in the same cloth. “You!" he started, pointing his hands at me. "How did that woman enter my territory?” the alpha growled, snarling. The two guards behind him shifted their weight from foot to foot. The blood on their faces drained while their knees trembled in fear. All of us will die here if nothing is done. "Solomon!""Yes
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 24]
KEIRA:The tension inside the room thickened. Ace's jealousy was like poison, making me gag. This was supposed to be a normal reunion. But after those baseless allegations of coming here because of Lennox which I didn't even know he was here was low.Lennox will deal accordingly. Not now. I will find him later. And also his woman. I will ask him if he wants her or not. I wanted to ask him where I belonged in his heart. Did he still love me or not?“That’s so mature, Ace,” I commented. “Did I look like the only person that mattered to me was Lennox? You think lowly of me.”There was a slight sting in my chest. I thought Ace would be happy that we were trying our best to save him. But because of Lennox, everything was turning in the opposite direction. I badly wanted to ask him about Lennox. But asking it right now will only make things worse. That can wait. I felt Solomon's gaze burning a hole in my forehead as well as Ace's. He was silent. Maybe waiting for the right opportunity
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 23]
KEIRA:I think I will die of boredom. A few hours had already passed since Solomon left me. But he had not returned yet. I already asked the staff of the resort if they had seen him, but they shook their heads and said Solomon would return even if it would take him long hours to. It was not new, but they put their trust in the man and the man never failed them. First, it was Ace. Now, it was Solomon.I bit my fingernails. What if he was hit by a truck while he was in his wolf form? Or what if someone shot him a tranquilizer thinking he was some wild beast?Now, I was already worried for two people. I paced back and forth, barefoot. I stayed at the swimming pool area, hoping the water would clear my mind at the moment, but it did not. The pacing did not help free my mind from worrying about the two. Damn it.I felt hopeless and felt like I was a damsel in distress waiting for her knight-in-shining armor.I glanced at the clock on one of the cottages.Past six o’clock in the even
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 22]
ACE:A backhanded slap with the alpha wearing his ring and bony hands was one of the worst punishments he could give. I felt his ring slicing my skin, sniffing the blood from it. My ears felt like it was ringing, after the alpha's slap. It was more humiliating because that's how he slapped his wife and mistresses. I shook off the feeling of dizziness. "I don't have a coward son! Don't you dare run with tails behind your legs, son. Do not bring any more disgrace in my name."Raw anger emerged like a roaring lion as I tasted the metallic taste of blood in my mouth. Spitting on the floor, and staring him in the eyes, I exclaimed, "Why don't you appoint your eldest son as the alpha? That's how it works, Dad. Aren't you even worried your son will die because of that match?"He pushed me off the wall and cornered me. Pointing his fingers on my chest, he whispered, "The weak should die. I don't feel any sorry if they die during the competition. As long as they did not cower in fear."
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 21]
ACE:My heart pounded like crazy. After a few years of evading this place, I was able to return to Blackriver Pack, the place where I was born. All the alpha's women gave birth here. It was one of the laws of the alpha to his pregnant women before he would sign the certificates signifying he was the father of the children. The pack were looking at me with a weird expression on their faces. Bastard or the bitch's child. The illegitimate child. The kept woman's child and a lot more to tell. The people became imaginative as I grew up. That was the name they called us. Without the alpha's knowing. My stomach knotted. My legs trembled, but I tried to act calm, especially with the guards beside me. They would laugh at me, thinking how could a powerful alpha like Alpha Bryan have a cowardly son. And then they would add, "It's because he is the son of the mistress. Illegitimate children are all weak. Why did the alpha acknowledge them?"In this pack, only the legal sons and daughters o
UNLOVING THE ALPHA LOVING THE LUNA: [Chapter 20]
KEIRA:The sun had already risen when I woke up. Rubbing my eyes, I looked at the clock on the bedside table. Ten o'clock in the morning. Damn.I overslept because I was too comfortable at this place. Maybe it was also because of the ambiance of the place and the sounds of the waves lulling me to sleep.My stomach growled. I need to eat. Ace. Where was that man?I looked for my shoes only to remember that I was barefooted when I checked who had entered my apartment.Checking if there were some spare slippers, I found them under the bed. Sprinting towards the door and looking for Ace, I found him on the beach, sitting on the sand facing the shore while sipping the juice of a coconut.Sensing my presence, he glanced over his shoulder and saw me, leaving the coconut on the sand, and sauntered towards me. "Hey. Did you sleep well? I asked someone to check if you already woke up, but the helper said you’re sleeping soundly."Surprisingly, I did. Maybe it was because I dreamed about L
