The Luna's Family Secret Chapter 19: Alpha of ALL
RIEKA “I’m sorry,” I break in, “I’m still learning the dynamics of the packs, but there is no such thing as an Alpha over all packs, is there?” “No, the packs are all independent, and for the most part diplomatic with one another,” Fleur answered, “We had an Alpha King many generations ago, but considering how long we wolves live, and how long ago it was, the idea of the Alpha King is just as much legend at this point as the stories about your family.” Aleksandr snorts beside me. “Sorry Love, but I don’t see how that’s possible. We’re mated, and I’m no stronger than I was before. I love you, and I don’t care about being Alpha over all werewolves. But the rumors just aren’t true.” I couldn’t argue with him. He knew his own strength and if being mated to me didn’t change anything then maybe there really was nothing to these rumors. Maybe it was just a legend. Then Cornelis spoke up again, but he directed his comment at me rather than Aleksandr. “The legend is that you have the ABIL
The Luna's Family Secret Chapter 20: Conflict
ALEKSANDRThe young pup immediately bared his fangs at Ace, and my protective instinct kicked in. Just as I was stepping forward to warn him off, Cornelis barked “Gerrit! You will be polite and welcoming to our guests!”Rieka’s eyes were wide, and I wasn’t sure if it was because this was Cornelis’ son, because he was growling at Ace, or both, but Cornelis immediately apologized for his son’s outburst.Gerrit bows his head in submission as he side-steps around me to take the empty seat next to his father.The evening was a bit tense, but eventually we all relax enough to make it through dinner. Rieka had a haunted look on her face the entire time. I tried to mind-link her to ask what was going on, but she brushed it off and said we’d talk later. Was she just stressed about Gerrit being aggressive towards Ace or was something else going on?As soon as it was acceptable to excuse ourselves, we did, and we all headed upstairs together as Cornelis began lecturing his son about his beh
The Luna's Family Secret Chapter 21: Compromised
ALEKSANDR When Gerrit crashed into the room like he did, I almost took his throat. The pup should know better than to surprise an alpha who is on edge trying to keep his mate safe. “Where is your father?” I growl. “He’s interrogating the spy now, but we need to prepare you all to leave if any information has gotten out.” Rieka gasps and whispers that we need to go get the kids as Fleur glances out the window and moves toward the door of the library. “Follow me,” She commands without glancing over her shoulder to confirm that we’re complying. Pulling Rieka close to my side, we briskly walk down the hall with Ash and Gerrit following close behind us. ‘Oliver, get the kids to safety.’ I mind-linked, ‘There has been a security breach of the Night Stalkers territory.’ ‘Yes, Alpha,” Oliver immediately responds. Fleur turns to head upstairs, and Rieka hesitates, “What about the kids? Don’t we need to get them?” “Danique and your guards are escorting them up to their rooms now,” A
The Luna's Family Secret Chapter 22: The Threat
ALEKSANDR Cornelis led us down the hall to an empty guest room while Ash and Fleur stood guard outside. Gerrit was nowhere in sight, but I wasn’t concerned about his whereabouts. Rieka and I waited for the Alpha to speak, but he just stood there looking calm, as if he was waiting for something. The only indication of his stress was the flexing of his jaw. After a few more seconds his shoulders relax a hair, and his face softens slightly. “The spy was well trained, but I managed to break him. He wasn’t able to get his intel out to his pack, but it seems I have a traitor in my pack.” Cornelis clenches his fists at his sides as he reveals the last part. “I assume you’ve identified the traitor and delt with them.” I glare at him. I trusted this Alpha with the protection of my family, and he can’t even keep his own pack in line. “Unfortunately, the traitor has been smart enough to protect themselves. The spy didn’t know who it was. They communicated anonymously through hidden
The Luna's Family Secret Chapter 23: Man to Man
RIEKA Balancing Calvin on my right hip, while holding Aria’s hand with my free one, we stepped out into the cold night air. The snow on the ground reflected the moonlight so there was nowhere to hide. Calvin buried his face into my neck as we silently walked to the cars. None of them were started yet, and I could see Eden’s face watching us through the window of the second vehicle. We made our way to the front vehicle in the lineup, but just before we reached it, Aria’s teeth began to chatter from the cold. I tense knowing with the heightened hearing of werewolves, if anyone was close by, they might hear her. Quickening my pace, and pulling Aria with me, I silently urge her to get in the car as quickly as possible. Once in the car, I slowly pull the door closed to avoid a loud thump. Calvin opened his mouth, but I quickly raise my finger to my lips indicating that it’s not safe to talk yet. Asher was already sitting in the front passenger seat, but he was focused on watching
The Luna's Family Secret Chapter 24: Misdirection
ALEKSANDRFleur’s scent was easy to follow, and it didn’t take long before I could see flashes of her tail between the trees ahead.It suddenly occurred to me that running after Fleur and leaving my family with only 5 guards might have been a stupid decision. If an entire pack in out here waiting to take them from me, the Luna’s Guards will not be strong enough to protect Rieka and the kids.I need to catch her and figure out what’s going on, so I can get back to my family and be certain that they are safe!Pushing my wolf as hard as I could, we finally caught up to Fleur, but she was slowing down.Shit! Did she already accomplish her goal of getting me away from my family?Stepping up behind her growling, she quickly shifts and glares at me. “What are you doing here?!” she whisper-yells. “You should be back there with your family! I’ll be back in a few minutes. Didn’t your mate tell you?!”Rieka? She was supposed to tell me something?That was the moment I realized that I was
The Luna's Family Secret Chapter 25: Another Traitor?
RIEKAAt first there was no answer, and my heart began to race. Damn, if I only had wolf senses, I could probably smell whoever was out there, or hear them or something. But I don’t, and I can’t.“Who’s there?” I call again.“Sorry to disrupt you Luna, but I need to speak with you.” A male voice that sounded vaguely familiar called back through the door.I wish I could place that voice. I know I’ve heard it before, but without seeing the face behind the door I had no idea who I was talking to, and he still hadn’t given me a name.“Where are my guards?” I question skeptically.“Mason just walked down the hall, he agreed to give us some privacy to speak.”Groaning internally, I curse my inability to mind-link with anyone but Aleksandr. This would be so much easier if I could just ask Mason if this were true, and who was standing outside my door.Then my mind immediately went to my children. Are they still safe? I’d rather give myself over to whoever this is than risk my childre
The Luna's Family Secret Chapter 26: Seeking Answers
RIEKA “I can’t explain because I don’t really understand what’s going on,” Gerrit finally spoke. “What do you mean you don’t understand?” Aleksandr asks through clenched teeth. “Well, my wolf has been restless for the last couple of days. At first, I thought it was just because I was newly shifted and I’m still learning how to work with him and understand him…” Gerrit trailed off and although I don’t know much about a wolf’s first shift, it seemed like he was a little embarrassed to admit that he’s had some trouble with his wolf. Alpha Cornelis nudges him urging him to continue his explanation. Gerrit’s eyes remain downcast as he continues. “When I walked into the dining room and your son, Ace, was there, my wolf became very aggressive. I’ve never felt him so strongly before,” he whispers. His eyes snap up to meet mine, “but then your presence seemed to wash over me in waves, and it helped to calm my wolf. I never would have made it through dinner without you there.” “What
