Mistake with the Alpha

I smiled with the way he was doing. He then frowned at me.

"What sort of expensive joke is that?" He glared.

"I'm not joking" I gave him the look to tell him that I'm not.

He seemed quite dumbfounded at my words. He couldn't even say a thing for a while.

"I've been looking for someone to tell since the first day I found out".

"How did you know?" He asked me." What about Allison?" He continued not even letting me answer that." Why did Jaylen smell her as his mate when he saw her? Sam has been with the Alpha for a while and he had never sensed that she's his mate. I think....." He was asking too many questions at a time. I understand he's agitated and knows the implication of an alpha choosing the wrong Luna but he needs to calm down to make him tell him.

"Stop talking" I interrupted him.

"Sorry but...."

"No but Ethan. Just listen to me".

My tone was strong and that did it. It calmed him down and he looked at me.

"I'm going to explain this to you in the best way I can and I'm telling you now for just one reason. You are the protector of your Luna and the connection you have with her will make you know that I'm saying nothing but the truth" I said in a low voice. "Okay" he nodded.

"You have the obligation to protect your Luna and I trust my instincts that you won't let me down" I added.

I looked around to see if Sam was anywhere close before I started to talk. Ethan seemed to know what I was doing so he talked.

"She's gone back to the room to take a nap" he told me and I nodded.

"Do you know I'm a hybrid with a witch power?" I asked him.

Well only few knew because my father made me hide it. Even those that know don't know how potent my witch power is. None have seen me use it. My mother wouldn't listen to my father when he said she shouldn't teach me how to use it. I'm a full blown witch and a werewolf alpha at the same time. So anyone knowing this will definitely be scared of me.

"So I heard from Jaylen".

"When I entered your pack, I didn't feel anything but immediately I sighted Sam, I knew something was wrong. I discovered that something wasn't right with her wolf. She seems quite fine out there but I noticed her wolf spirit was covered with a dark cloud. Normally I wasn't supposed to see her wolf but with a witch power involved, I was able to see that struggling wolf. I then wondered why would someone put her wolf in darkness" he paused to see if the person I was talking to was listening. Ethan was concentrating so much that when I stopped he gave me this continuous look.

"I didn't get my answer until that Allison a girl, showed up. Immediately I sensed the aura of witchcraft around her. It was so strong that it affected me a bit. Then I wondered what was linking Allison to Sam. Then she proclaimed herself to be your Alpha's mate. That was when I became so curious. As the nosy me, I did a little research and started to find out that Sam is Jaylen's true mate and the dark cloud covering her wolf is for Jaylen not to be able to smell his mate and also for Sam not to smell her mate. Jaylen is one they couldn't work on so they attacked his mate" I narrated.

"Wow! This is so shocking and unbelievable" Ethan said sadly with a sigh.

"But the bitter truth," I added.

"What you are saying now is that Allison used the power of a witch to steal Sam's mating bond for herself?" Ethan asked to be sure.

Drey nodded.

"You know Allison, Jaylen and Alvin used to be best of friends before she went away from the pack. If they know about what she did it will be so heartbreaking. I know they trust her so much" Ethan said with a sad look.

"That's why my word trust no one is just a perfect quote" I said.

"What would her gain be for doing this?"

"Don't be dumb Ethan. It's glaring she wants power" I mocked.

Ethan looked at me and then nodded.

"Should we tell Jaylen?"

I shook my head. "You'll put Sam in trouble" I disagreed.

"But her life is already in danger. We don't know if they would want to kill her after all these mating ceremonies are done. What if marking Allison will harm her. We have to do something" he rushed out.

I know he's concerned for his real Luna but he's taking things too far.

"You have to calm down to see how these things work," I said to him. "You are right that she's in harm's way. Jaylen is the only one that has that capacity to break that spell and telling him now can make him go into rage. His rage then can lead to anything. If he harms Allison, Sam will definitely be affected. Moreover we don't know how powerful the witch she's working with is. We don't want a situation where Sam will badly hurt and that will ruin Jaylen's life" I explained. "But I'm so anxious. I can't just sit and don't do anything" he said.

"I know. For now you should find a way not to make Jaylen to mark that Allison girl. They won't hurt Sam for now if Allison is not marked but that doesn't mean they won't keep trying. You just have to protect your Luna until I know what to do next". I don't know why I'm doing this. It's not that they are my priority but I have this urge to help them.

"Thank you so much. The moon goddess brought you here to come and save us. Thank you Drey" Ethan said with enthusiasm.

I smiled at him. I didn't know he had this humble side of him.

"Well you don't need to appreciate me because it's not like I like what I'm doing but it's just that I can't look away" I said with an intentionally blunt voice.

I watched Ethan to see if his eyes of appreciation would change a bit it didn't. He still smiled on.

"Well I don't care if you like it or not. I'm just grateful for the fact that you left our differences and came to our aid. With that you are a darling" he said and pulled me to a hug.

"You can't be serious," I said, pushing him off me.

He opened his teeth wide at me and that couldn't help me hold my laughter. I burst into laughter.

"I didn't know you could be a clown," I said.

"My personality to anyone depends on how we relate," he said.

Then I remembered something.

"Your first task is that you have to find the connection between you and your Luna" I told him.

Every Gemma and Luna has a connection. Most times it's always that the Gemma carries the mark of the Luna on his body but some are different. I didn't know if Ethan would be able to find Sam's mark on him because of the magic that clouds her wolf. "You mean this?"

He asked me to pull his shirt to show me the upper side of his left arm. It has a blue wolf on it. It sat down looking so peaceful.

"That's her mark?" I asked him.

I was confused because the wolf is blue. That's a very rare kind.

"I don't know. I was going to ask Jaylen if Allison's wolf is blue but now I know it's Sam's" he replied.

"When did this appear?"

The time it appears also matters because there's nothing magic can't change.

"Well I noticed it a few days before Allison appeared while I was bathing".

"Then it's Sam's," I said gladly.

Now my heart was relieved from guilt. Myself and Ethan can work together to set things right for those two. I don't know if I'm doing this for Sam or Jaylen but one thing I know is that I'm doing the right thing.
