Alpha Damon And Emily, His Contract Luna のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 11 - チャプター 20

Emily's POV “Hi, I've been wanting to talk to you.” I said to Damon. It's been two weeks since the wedding, and our marriage was yet to be consummated, but that wasn't a pressing issue, not for me at least. “What is it?” Damon asked, stretching out his hand, as I wore his Richard Mille on his wrists. “I've been thinking,” I started, “Can I see a friend?” I asked him. My heart was in my mouth as I spoke. “You never mentioned that to me.” Damon replied, “Please be fast about that.” He added, referring to how I was fidgeting with the watch. Tending to the Alpha was my utmost duty. He'd made me understand that there's very little input I could ever put into pack administration, or business, and so I should stick to minding him. And that's what I did. “Yeah.” I admitted. “I only thought about her last night. We were friends at the orphanage.” “And you think someone like that would be fit as a company for a Luna?”He asked, still not looking at me. I finally was able to

Emily's POV “He's a tough boy.” Farh said. At first, I thought I hadn't heard well. Servants were sworn to secrecy, much more those who served directly with Alpha’s and Lunas. “He takes after his father's stubbornness.” Farh added. “You mean Alpha Damon III?” I asked Farh. I could never get used to referring to them, or reversing them any less than I did. Alpha’s were the Moon Goddess ears, and eyes and heart on earth. They were not to be disrespected, that's what Nala said. “He was a good man.” He added. “I know deep down, Damon is too.” “I want to think the same.” I sighed. Farh turned off the car, which meant the air conditioner was gonna be off too. “Why did you turn the engine off?” I asked him, surprised. “I just remembered that all our conversations are recorded as long as the car is on.” Farh confided, leaving me wide eyed. “What sort of a life is this?” I asked myself, scared. “You don't have to be afraid. It's hard and rough in the beginning. Y

Damon's POV “That's not what I'm doing.” Emily replied. “Then tell me why your watch is not in your hand? Did you get busy? Was it in your way of doing something? Why did you take it off? Oh, or is my ring gonna start bothering you anytime soon too? Would you like to take that too off?” I was so pissed, and already failing at keeping my cool. “I visited Dathan earlier in the day.” She swallowed hard. “I must have left it there.” “Is that a probability or you're sure you did?” I asked her. “I'm sure I did.” Emily replied. “May I ask why you were there?” I asked, towering over her. “No.” She said, I paused a bit. Maybe she's lost her mind. “No, you may not.” “That's just a fancy way of asking. Pardon my manners.” I chuckled a bit. “Why were you in Dathan’s room? Alone?” I added for emphasis. “I need peace and quiet from the chaos in this palace.” She replied. Emily's head was bent in subordination, but her replies couldn't have been more rebellious. “And

Dathan’s POV “Breathe.” I told Emily as we walked through the dark corridors in the palace. “I'm trying to.” She replied, chuckling nervously. “Alright.” I said. I didn't want to embarrass her, or make her too self conscious. “Are you sure this is safe?” Emily asked. We were already approaching the elevator at the end of the corridor. At that point, if Damon opened his door, I'd have been caught in the most unexplainable of situations. Hand in hand with his Luna, in the dim lit corridor, heading for an elevator to shoot us all the way up. Thankfully, he didn't, and in no time, we were on our way up to the top of the palace. “Ever been in an elevator before?” I asked Emily. “No.” She replied. I could tell from how unsteady she was. We were defying gravity, and the feeling could make a first timer sick in the stomach. “It's no big deal, really. You'll get used to it.” I put her at ease. Emily and I stood side by side, she was too scared to move an inch, for fea

Damon's POV “Emily!” I yelled in the corridors. The palace was almost empty, it was night, and my voice was just coming right back to me, no response. There was just one more confirmation I needed to make my conclusion. I stormed to Dathan’s room, and opened the door without any further preamble. There was no need for it. Dathans room was neatly put together, but deserted. I had to do something, I also needed assistance. “Farh?” I asked as I heard a grunt over the phone. “Yes, sir.” He answered. His voice was very deep. “Emily is missing.” I said. I didn't mean to raise an alarm. But my mind was already playing different types of scenarios. I blinked rapidly, trying to imagine what she could be up to, but my mind kept failing me. I was fatigued, but not just that, I actually didn't know her too well. I thought about all the places in the palace she could be, cuddled up with Dathan. Their absence couldn't be coincidental. One sure would know where the other was.
