Luna On The Run!

Luna Ariel’s POINT OF VIEW still

“No! I will never accept your rejection, Ariel. You didn’t even give me a fair chance”.

Alpha Zane’s sweet demeanor has now given way to intense anger. I can feel it vibrating down my spine. His parents look worried as their son turns blood-red.

“Son, calm down. We can still talk to her, bring her to her senses. But then peace will have to return here,” his father tries to steady him. His mother runs to him and strokes his back. But it seems to have little effect, probably because he has a mate now and only the mate bond can soothe him. But I have no intention of helping him with that.

“Luna, Alpha Zane is right. You have made no effort to see if this triangle mating can succeed. You and Alpha Gorgio were against it from the start, which is not unusual in our werewolf community. Quite a few Alphas have more than one mate or share one.” The older man shakes his head in disapproval.

“Ariel, be reasonable. My son needs his Luna to lead the pack. He had been looking for you for ages and when he finally found you, you ran away. That was a painful experience for him and his wolf.” Now it is Luna Irmy’s turn to try to win me over.

But I am determined.

“He can accept my rejection and move on to a second chance mate who will love him unconditionally,” I point out. “Holding on to me is a waste of time. Starting a relationship whose outcome we already know is pointless.”

Alpha Zane blows out of his chair, no longer trying to control his anger.

“I will decide for myself if my time with you is unnecessary and worthless, Ariel. I claim as many rights over you as Gorgio. We are both your mate and must share you. It is not the ideal circumstance, but the Moon Goddess has decreed it and there is nothing we can do about it,” he blurts out. “You remain my mate and Luna of Midnight Moon.”

Now my anger is surfacing as well. Slowly, I rise from my chair and stare sternly into the Alpha’s face. “Do you want to force me? I don’t need another mate, Gorgio is enough for me. And whether you accept my rejection or not, I have no intention of staying with you.”

The Alpha makes a move in my direction, but his mother stops him.

I wondered what he was up to, but I didn’t have much time to ponder about that.

“Listen, I have a proposal. Ariel, stay here as our guest for five months. That should be enough time for you and Zane to bond. If that doesn’t work, you’re free to leave. Alpha Gorgio can pick you up, and Zane will accept your rejection without any protest. I will see to it personally.”

Alpha Zane’s father gazes at me expectantly. My eyes widened. Five months without Gorgio! I won’t survive that. My mate won’t let me go, especially if it turns out that I’m really pregnant. And I want to be with Gorgio when our pups grow in my belly, to share my happiness with him. This is our first pup and I’m sure he won’t want to miss out.

This situation is untenable.

“With all due respect, Alpha Michael. But I won’t survive five months away from my mate. You are mated yourself and you know how it works. Gorgio and I are inseparable, he is the first thing I have to see when I wake up. And Gorgio will go mad if he knows that I am here, far away from him, with another male”.

“Luna, we are trying to come to an arrangement here. This case is difficult enough and a solution is impossible if you don’t get along with each other. Zane is the only one who is dissatisfied with this mating. You and Alpha Gorgio can get on with your lives, but what about my son?”

My patience is running out as well.

“Accept my rejection. Then this will all be over,” I bite at Alpha Zane. Gone is my noble behavior. My eyes spit fire, I hate being backed into a corner like this. And then he throws himself back in his chair in defeat, his head in his hands.

“I can’t do it, Ariel. Try to understand that too. As much as you want Gorgio, I want you for myself. It’s not easy to let you go, you’re my mate. That’s not nothing,” he explains, choking up.

I roll my eyes. Is he playing the emo card now? Unbelievable!

“We’ll go back to the airstrip and discuss this with Sir Walter. And then you will decide”. Alpha Michael stands up and everyone follows his lead. With a deep sigh, I walk behind him, eager to see Gorgio again. We drive back in silence and when we arrive I see Gorgio smiling broadly. As I get out of the car, he has his arms open wide.

Without thinking, I ran to him and threw myself against his chest. All the nerves melt away as I breathe in his scent. “Hey, baby. Everything’s going to be fine. Relax, don’t worry,” the love of my life whispers in my ear. “I’m right here with you, nothing can happen to you.”

“They want to take me away from you. I am so tired of all this, I just want to get on with my life, in peace. Alpha Zane refuses to accept my rejection,” I sob as I cling to him.All content is © N0velDrama.Org.

“Gorgio, I cannot be without you. I will die if I don’t see you by my side every day.”

Someone behind us clears his throat. “Alpha Gorgio, Sir Walter. I have a proposal to get out of this whole affair. Luna Ariel doesn’t want to stay in Midnight Moon, she even rejected my son,” Alpha Michael sighs. “But my son has feelings too. His interest should also count”.

“And what is your suggestion?” roars Gorgio, knowing that nothing good is coming. ” Thread carefully, old man. I’m not in the mood for any nonsense”.

“Let’s keep a cool head. We are close to a solution, we just need to listen carefully to each other,” Sir Walter enters. “The King keeps asking me for updates. We have to compromise.” The other Alphas, who are serving as witnesses, also nod, I bet they are eager to get back to their own business now.

“Ariel will stay at Midnight Moon for five months to give her relationship with Zane a fair chance. If they fail to bond, I will see to it that he accepts the rejection and moves on with his life,” Zane’s father throws in.

“Now I’m sure you’re tired of life, you fool!” Gorgio half-slides into his giant black wolf and strikes at the old Alpha’s head…
