Orphan to Luna: The Alpha's Substitute Bride chapter 29
Chapter 29Rhys’s Pov “You smell so good” I mumbled against her cheeks, because she really did and my wolf was riled. She released a small sigh and then giggled anxiously and I stopped my lips journey as I received a signal.Duncan was trying to send a message to me. I needed to concentrate, I watched the puzzlement come into her eyes.“Report to the Dungeon. There’s a captive situation” Duncan mind linked me.“Alright,” Mara said and moved backwards. I realized then that moving away from her abruptly like that would have robbed her of the wrong way.“I’m sorry about that,” I said, trying to explain what the interruption had been.“It’s fine, I have to work actually. I will catch you later” she responded hurriedly and ran off.“Dang it!” I growled as she ran away. She had misunderstood what had happened, guilt poured through me and I ran my hands through my head in frustration. One problem at a time.I headed down to the dungeon and I cringed at the thought of having to address the

Chapter 30Mara’s Pov “I told you he was a jerk” Gretel said uselessly, because I was already hating myself more than I did before.He apologized after kissing me. Was I so repelling? Was I so unattractive?I lay motionless on the bed, staring at the believing decor above and feeling and for myself.I heard the door open and I looked up to find Azura.“Are you okay Luna?” She asked with concern. “I’m fine Azura. What do you want?” I asked her, sitting up and looking at her.“You are having your dinner together with the other warriors. I am here to take you there” she responded kindly and I groaned internally at the mention of the ‘almighty alpha’, the same one who had insulted my pride today.“What makes it different from any other meal?” I asked her.“It’s more fit for a warrior, or better still a potential warrior.” She explained calmly and I got up and put on my shoes.“So it’s a more balanced diet?” I asked her, squinting dramatically. “Precisely.” She said, holding in a smile

Chapter 31Rhys’ Pov ‘I’m sure it breaks you to find out your dear betrothed has been alive all this while’ Black said mockingly as I stood looking at the rogue.“You still won’t speak?” I asked him angrily.“I would rather die!!” He yelled back and I cringed. I walked inside the cell room again and held him by his tattered shirt.“You know you shall die in my territory. I have every right to kill you, there’s no point in hiding it from me.” I grounded, annoyed and irritated at his misplaced loyalty.Obviously if Talia could fake her own death and make everybody believe her sister had killed her, who knew what she was capable of.‘You’re speaking with sentiment.’ Black responded to my thoughts.‘Am I really?’ I snapped.“You can go ahead and try. You won’t get anything from me.” The rogue said and before I could understand the scene unfolding in front of me, he had hit his head on the cell wall and was now unconscious.He lay lifeless on the prison ground.“The bastard just slammed

Chapter 32Mara’s POV‘Yet again, you have been embarrassed without any measures.’ Gretel whispered resignedly and my heart hurt.I was not having any of it this time, I had been restraining for far too long and it seemed like my desire to please everybody was making me look really foolish.“I’m sorry Luna, I shouldn’t have interrupted, but I couldn’t take any of it again.” Azura was speaking next to me, and I was not listening.The She-wolves were standing at the other side of the food court and I didn’t know when I started heading towards their direction, Azura following closely behind me.‘Don’t let your emotions control you’ Gretel said mockingly.‘Make up your mind!’ I snapped at her and I was standing behind them. The one who had slapped Azura was facing me directly.“Come Azura,” I gestured without breaking my gaze from hers.I felt Azura stand next to me.“You shall apologize to her this instant.” I said to her and she laughed, the rest of them joined her.Attention was alread

Chapter 33Rhys’s POVI drove back from the all night cafe on the other side of town back home, listening and humming along to cool country music and meditating. After the confrontation with my mother earlier, I had just wanted to clear my head, so I had gotten in my truck and drove over to the cafe.The elders were overly interested in my desire to have an heir. I didn’t know how to deal with it yet because of the chance of Talia being alive and well somewhere.‘Driving didn’t send away the confusion’ Black said dryly and I groaned.‘Don’t be a pain in the ass,’ I responded dryly, I had a lot of decisions to make and they weren’t evening out.I was now driving back home and I had picked up a to-go pack for Mara. Since I didn’t know what to do about the elders issue I should at least resolve things with her.I had not seen her since she had run off earlier and the donut was a peace offering. I was confused on how to deal with her new power spur and the sexual tension threatening to f

Chapter 34Mara’s Pov “What happened, Mara?” he asked me again, this time more firmly. I felt the urge to burst out and say everything that had gone wrong that day but the fear and power that had consumed me was too much for me to explain.I looked at him and averted my gaze as quickly as I had.“I want you to be free to confide in me, tell me exactly what had happened” he said softly and i wanted to, but I didn’t feel ready to explain it. I felt if I said it out loud then it would be true, that I was indeed a monster.“I don’t really feel ready to talk about it, Alpha.” I said finally and I came to sit on the bed again. He looked intently at me and nodded.“If you don’t want to talk about it it’s fine. But you would eventually say something about it or I would hear it elsewhere.” He replied, warmth and depth in his eyes. “Thank you very much” I whispered as I got beneath the duvet.He stood up as I arranged it firmly around me.“I need to leave you to rest. I don’t want to bother

Chapter 35 Rhys’s Pov I woke up to a terrible hangover and a persistent headache.I rolled over to the edge of the bed and managed to sit up straight.Predictably, my hangover solution was already seated on the side stool. I stretched over and held the cup in my hands, I gulped the content and stared idly out the window.‘Are you going to sit there forever?’ Black asked me and I groaned.‘I wish I could.’ I responded and went in to take my bath, the time was a little past nine and Mara’s training session was scheduled for nine.‘I want to meet her but that would come later. ‘Do you perhaps remember the books that used to be in the pack library, those about werewolves?’ I asked Black, his hunger for history was greater than mine.‘They were banned some years back. But you are the alpha, so you can gain access to them..’ He responded as I got in the shower.The water hit me and felt instant relief. The solution was taking its toll and I was feeling a lot better. I drank to all t

Chapter 36Mara’s PovI woke up sweating and panting, it was the first sign of dawn and my senses were already active and driving.It was difficult to find sleep after my realistic dream that night and now my body had finally given out. I was immensely tired.‘Don’t fret or fear, just breathe Mara,’ Gretel said helpfully to me. I subconsciously inhaled and exhaled multiple times, allowing fresh breath of air into my lungs.‘What was that about?’ I asked her, confused by their repeated talks about my wolf being special. ‘Even the moon goddess had appeared to me to tell me that!’ I said.‘You just have to obey her command and hide it well, no matter how tempted you are in a food court, to beat up annoying people.’ She teased and I groaned in remembrance of my terrible evening yesterday.‘Why do I have to hide it though? I didn’t ask for it,” I said weakly and my wolf was quiet.‘I had something similar to what you had. She took me to a place that’s unfit for human eyes. I met with wolv
