All Chapters of The Darkest Alpha: Chapter 11 - Chapter 20

I hardly slept that night. I couldn't get Alpha Blackmoon out of my head and I was heartbroken.Then he took my phone from me. The Mindlink no longer worked at this distance, even though I was still in my father's pack. Luckily I wasn't included in Alpha Blackmoon's pack, that was the last thing I wanted. Not at all after the last experiences.In the morning I stayed in bed because I had lost my motivation. I was practically finished. Who would have thought that the Mateband could get you down like that. Well, you only knew that when it happened to you.My thoughts were interrupted by a knock, and I automatically called out, "Come in!" I looked at the door, expecting Melody, rather it was a great hope in me.A little relief flooded through me when a smiling Melody walked through the door. So I was right."Good morning, Layla." Her voice mirrored the expression on her face. She seemed to be in a good mood and I kindly replied, "Good morning Melody." I tried a smile, but it never reache

My heart was pounding in my chest, I'm about to have a heart attack. I was afraid of what to expect. You didn't want to face an angry alpha. I had to do this to myself.I shouldn't get my hopes up too much. Our first meeting had gone very badly. It couldn't be any better when Alpha Blackmoon was upset. Basically I could only pray that he wouldn't do any violence to me. I felt these chances to be small at the moment, so something was definitely coming.Melody accompanied me into the house. We walked up the stairs and neither of us had said a word. She felt comfortable with me or was afraid of punishment herself. It was probably both and I could understand her.At least Lilia didn't fight her way through. There was a good chance she was a little uneasy herself. Her presence would have made things worse.Melody and I reached my room faster than I would have liked. The door was open and Melody stopped a few steps away. I looked at her and she looked worried.I nodded to her to let her go.

Once in the dining room, Xavier took the chair. I sat on his right and Jarek on his left. Logically, Sarafine sat next to her mate.The meal was pretty quiet, we didn't talk much. The quiet had been a bit uncomfortable, at least that's how I felt.After the meal, Sarafine sat across the table with me. On the grounds that we wanted time for us women. That was fine with everyone, the men would have their own entertainment anyway. For me it was much more comfortable. I had more distance to Xavier and he was more than fine with me.In the meantime we had drunk quite a bit, because there was no lack of alcohol in this house. Sarafine and I could tell.She was nice company and we laughed a lot. Which was almost a miracle, but she made me forget all the stress. I focused on her and blocked out everything else.Then she began: "Tell me about your male exes." That was very uncomfortable. I had saved myself, which was unusual for a 20-year-old. And I didn't want to say it, after all my mate rej

Xavier roughly pulled me back towards the house. He didn't say a word and I didn't dare say anything.I almost tripped over the stairs as he practically dragged me along. The fall didn't come because Xavier held me too tight. He was probably thinking how incompetent I was.When we got to the first floor, we turned left and went to the second door. Xavier tore it open and pushed me into my room, and not in a friendly way.He pulled the door behind us and it slammed shut with a bang. Since he had pushed me into the room, Xavier had let go of my arm. I immediately took three steps back and fear was written all over my face. I couldn't play it anymore. The man scared me too much for that.He took a big step towards me and involuntarily I took a step back. A distance would be for my own safety.I would have asked what exactly the problem was, but I was unable to speak.Xavier was faster than me and closed the gap between us. He roughly grabbed my forearm and asked, "What are you thinking a

Sarafine said goodbye after our conversation, which was more than fine with me. I didn't have to talk about it any longer.I lay down on my bed and stared at the ceiling. There was a lot to think about. Way too much. The thoughts in my head raced. My life had become one big mess.The fear that I would soon have to face Xavier nagged at me. The man could do anything to me. He kept getting angry, so Xavier would find a reason again. And I dreaded it.So I hid in my room for the rest of the day. I didn't want to go out and face reality, it scared me too much for that. Lilia eavesdropped on my thoughts and said, "Layla, you have been chosen by the moon goddess to be the perfect Luna for the most powerful pack. After all, we are Xavier's mate. So you are neither weak nor afraid. We're going out of this now, and we'll do it with our heads held high ." I just couldn't. Lilia was right, we were chosen as Luna, but this was all new and unexpected. In addition, Xavier lived in this house.How
