THE CURSED LUNA

- SHE IS MY MATE!!

ALPHA CHRISTIAN'S POV

"You would dare battle your Gammah for the sake of that cursed girl?!" My Mother's voice rose in the darkness.

"I have never had anything taken from me ... Yes, i will defend her with my life, Mother. I am in love with that cursed omega, and she alone will be my mate whether you fall in line with it or not!" I muttered angrily back at her. We strode back to the mansion in the darkness, I had taken Amira back to the healing shed, where I was sure she would be safe. I needed to get back to the mansion to pick up some herbs I stored solely in my room.

"What has come over you Christian Stone?!" She bellowed angrily. "You are already bethrothed to Sheela, she is your Mate and Luna to be, that has already been fated from start!" She said with an intensity that sounded more like desperation. I paused on the third step leading up to the entrance of the house. I began to bubble with anger at those very words, "Mate" and "Luna", especially when they were attached to Sheela's name.

"Then why does she not make my blood boil the way Amira does?!" I yowled angrily.

" Why doesn't my wolf go crazy anytime I am around her?! Is she really my Fated Mate? Or is that just what YOU would have me believe?" I questioned her, it was apparent she did not have my answers, because she merely stared back at me utterness silence.

Then just as immediately, she uttered the very words I could not for the life of me understand where they stemmed from.

"Have you... have you slept with the cursed girl?" She asked in a whisper that could have only been synonymous to the utterance of an abomination.

My mother looked as though she was about to throw up the bitter taste of the very words she had just spoken.

I kept silent and ignored her careless assumption, but no matter how my skin burned from Amira's touch, it had only ever happened once.

The memory flashed before my eyes as I remembered what it had felt like being with her. Her soft skin, her eyes which had been glazed over with helpless pleasure and desire.

I had found her standing by the armoire in the Soldiers quarters where all the weapons had been kept. She had not heard or seen me walk in, her back was arched as I watched her try to pry open the armoire.

"You can't tell me it is that difficult to pull open am ordinary piece of metal" I asked jesting, because I knew even the weakest of wolves could pull open a metal drawer.

She turned to me with eyes widened in fear, even though I could tell that she was equally affected by my presence, just as I was by hers, she still revered me because of the difference in our position.

I allowed my eyes glide over the form of her maid's uniform, it was a tab below her knee, and still did nothing to hide her curves. I looked at her beautiful face, her full lips and sharp green eyes pierced shadows of need into my loins.

Was it just me who she drove this crazy? The fear in her eyes had told me my ravenous desire were evident in my gaze. I could not hide how I felt, how she made me feel. And even in that moment, I could feel my heart beat erratically. "Stand still" I ordered her, I saw her petite frame freeze, as she lowered her eyes to the floor. There was nothing worth searching for there, but still her gaze remained steadfast, planted to an invisible spot on the brown and cream colour tiled floor.

I moved up to her slowly, and paused when I was a few steps away from her. I put my index finger under her chin and tilted it upward until her face was within my gaze. Although, her eyes were still lowered.

I let my eyes roam freely down her beautifully carved, chiseled face, her long, dark lashes, her full, succulent lips, which made me clench my jaw for the very reason of exacting control. She was my mate, and every part of my body could not resonated in agreement with that very fact.

I Tilted her face further towards mine, until I was few seconds away from her lips, and then I kissed her. Her eyes flew open the moment our lips collided, but she was already in too deep to realize that even she burned with the exact same desire that I did.

Our bodies moved in sync to wch other, our hearts beat together as one. I lifted her up into my arms putting her legs around me as I ravisged every taste of her succulent lips.

I allowed my hands feel the very pulse that resonated through her entire body, and she did not resist me, but only dived further into my touch and kiss.

It was careless of us but I placed her down on the beautiful red and white carpet which bore the insignia of our pack, a crested moon with a white glow around it. On that very floor, I made love to her in a way I had never mads love to any woman I had ever met.

Our worlds did not seem so different in that moment, our hearts were one, our thoughts were one, our desires were one, and everything that seemed to make us who we were melded in that single moment to create what fate wanted us to be.... Fated mates.

I turned away from my mother, and walked away from her. I found Adrian in the living room, seated on the sofa, his entire face was bruised up and his jaw swoll from the effect of the beatings I had given him.

He watched me with hateful, angry eyes, but he dared not stand up against me, I was still his Alpha, and he had his choice to make.

Sheela walked out into the living room, her eyes widened with shock at the sight of Adrian's battered form.

"What happened here? Was there an attack?" She asked rushing up to me when she saw my hand was bruised up as well.© 2024 Nôv/el/Dram/a.Org.

"No, there was no attack... Christian here decided to beat me up because of that cursed girl!" Adrian replied angrily. He winced just as he was done speaking from the pain of his swollen jaw.

My fist tightened and I clenched my jaw angrily, grinding my teeth as I stared at him.

Sheela's eyes widened and her face morphed into a frown, "is this true, Christian?" She asked.

I gave her a vicious glare which more than spoke about how true it was, it also revealed that it was none of her business.

"You are beyond lucky, I only bruised a few organs, I should have sent you to a morgue by now" I growled angrily.

"How could you? What is it about that cursed girl that makes you so wild?!" Sheela asked angrily, her voice breaking with emotion. But I did not answer her, I looked into her eyes, as realization dawned over her and her face contorted with shock.

"You already know the answer to that" I said through gritted teeth, and walked away from all of them.
