Elsa listened attentively to Daxton as she munch on a box of pizza. Nodding every now and then to the interesting stories he was relating.
For the less than ten minutes she has spent with the group she had managed to deduce that the lady was Alexander's sister, Jay, who she has only meet one, (during their court marriage).
The other two, Dayton and Daxton are identical twins. Like head to toe and all. It really was frightening.
And the most important of all, is that Daxton is a blabber mouth. He literally knows about everything. It gave her the feeling of those old ladies in the neighborhood who would hold a tea party on Saturdays, to gossip. Terrifying.
"So you are trying to say I am— your Luna..... The female Alpha of your wolf pack.....or sort of?" Elsa felt a bit uncomfortable as she asked.
"Yes." Daxton nodded with a big smile which has been on his face ever since she had walked in.
She wondered how he manages to hold it up for so long.
"But isn't the Luna supposed to be his mate blessed by the moon goddess and all....?"
There's silence, and she looked around the three faces, raising a brow.
Something about their downcast expression and avoiding eyes felt fishy.
"He had a mate. Didn't he?" Elsa said, and from the tense line on Daxton fore head, she knew she was right.
'it should be related to his deceased wife he didn't tell me about.' She had that itchy ache in her heart. Just the same as she suffered when she first found out about the hidden secrets.
"You are his wife." Jay spoke up. Like a knife her words cut through the tension filled air.
"Were. We are divorced." Elsa scowled. "He can go find his pack a new Luna for all I care."
"The Alpha——he is a good person....." She threw a glare at Dayton who was trying to put in some good words for his boss.
Snatching Daxton's bottle of orange juice, she chugged it all down, stood up, then patted her stomach.
Letting out a loud sleepy yawn. It was definitely still dark outside so she decided to go back to bed. "I am going to sleep. See you guys tomorrow."
♥♥♥♥♥♥♥
The next morning Elsa woke up feeling thoroughly refreshed.
It was one of the best sleep she had had in weeks.
Or that was what she thought until she opened her eyes and realized she wasn't alone in the bed.
Her head blaring in alarm as she yelled. "The fuck!!!!"
It was on of those rare mornings Alexander overslept. His eyes lazily fluttering open as he popped a brow at the devasted dasmel glaring daggers at him.
"Why. Are. You. Here?" She spelt between gritted teeth's. Eyes gleaming with furiousity.
"Where?" He had an innocent look on his face as he met her gaze.
"In bed." Elsa tried hard to ignore the urge to smack his face with a pillow. Biting down on her bottom lip. "With me?"
"This is my room. And my bed" He aced a confused expression. "Where else should I sleep?"
"On the sofa..,on the ground...., Like a gentleman would." Elsa spat back.
"I look like a gentleman?" Alexander replied ina reflex manner. Ticking her even more. Seeing this. He sensibly changed the topic. "You don't have to worry. I didn't do anything to you. Like the gentleman I am."
"Who knows?"
"If you really want to know." Alexander sighed dramatically. "Last night. It was you who rolled over to me.."
"I didn't." Elsa denied.
"You hands were over me like an octopus. And you kept muttering something under your breath. A name." Elsa was about to refute again when he added. "Kola. I think."
'damnit.' Her cheeks heated up at a visible rate and Alexander threw her a victory smirk.
Feeling like she had been smacked in the face. She glared harder. Saying a "whatever."
She grabbed the covers, threw it over her form, then stormed into the bathroom.
At lost at why she had to wrap herself up when she was well clothed.
'Anger really is my kryptonite.' Elsa sighed, looked around. Then decided to just take a bath since she was already there.
She had just finished washing up when she realized a problem.
The clothes are in the closet which is in the room and there is Alexander in the room too.
No. She couldn't see herself walking out there with just a towel. Unless she'd have to wear the clothes she changed out of. Which was an invalid.
'are the heaven's planing on killing me with embarrassment today?' She suddenly had a headache.
Seeing no other way out, she poked her head out of the door and called out to her enemy. "Alexander."
He was lying on the bed, typing something on his phone. Barely sparing her a glance as he replied. "hmmmmm."
Elsa swallowed. Then breathed. "Clothes."
"In the closet." He answered.
Another breath. "Can you bring it over."
"Why?"
"I am only in a towel. I can't get it myself." Elsa seethed.
"I still don't see why." Although he was still focused on his phone, Elsa knew just what he was doing.
"Bastard." She slammed the door shut.
'He thinks I can't do it? I will show him.
How dare he mock me?
It's not like I am insecure about my body. No. Am more afraid he might fall in love. But now. I won't care.'
She tightly secured the towel, then threw the door open with a determination to move mountains.
Only that—
There was no sign of Alexander anymore.
The rims of Elsa eyes grew red as she glared at the spot he had occupied. 'That fudging bastard!!!"
♦♦♦♦♦♦♦
Elsa came down just in time for breakfast. All her bad emotions drowning at the aroma of the kitchen.
"Luna."
"Luna."
"Luna Elsa."
Elsa snickered at the three as she takes a sit. Nice try. "The name is Elsa."
She ignored the big bad alpha who was for sure staring at her, serving a plate of pancakes for herself.
She inhaled half of her plate. Feeling the table was too quiet. She said. "I forgot to ask; Where is the park located?"
"New Orleans." Alexander replied.
"New Orleans?" Elsa was pretty shocked. She had stayed there almost all the years of her life. And although she couldn't boast of having visited every inch it was still surprising how a whole lot of were-people could live there. Unnoticed.
'Did the government know about the this?' she felt doubtful.
"We are leaving today." Alexander spoke up bringing her out her thoughts. "By nine."
"Oh—safe journey then." Elsa waved. Ignoring the tiny sense of disappointment she felt.
"I want you to come with us." He stated.
'Dream on.'
"No thanks." Elsa said without a second thought.
"Will you really not think about it?" Alexander popped a brow. "I am offering you everything."
Elsa throat bulged at his last word.
"You should think about it." Alexander said. "like I said, we will leave by nine."

"Will you really not think about it?" Alexander popped a brow. "I am offering you everything."Elsa throat bulged at his last word."You should think about it." Alexander said. "like I said, we will leave by nine.""I don't think there's anything there to think about." She lied. Downing a cup of water. "You can leave when ever you want. I don't care.""Also I have to go to the company." She added a little later. "I have a whole lot of work to attend to.""It's dangerous." Alexander frowned."I have work." Elsa restated."I will go with her." Jay volunteered.Elsa raised a brow, feeling there was no need for it.But then with a second thought. Maybe it was needed."Don't worry I will keep her safe brother." Jay added at a glance of Alexander's unchanging face.Elsa scowled as he nodded. "Okay."'he really thinks I need his opinion, doesn't he?"'All I want is a car and a map to where I am.'———————'Maybe it was a bad idea coming to work' Elsa massaged her temples after a ass-long boar
She slowly looked back up, the guy in the middle flashing her a knowing smirk. 'what the..!!' The possibility revolved in her head, then it clicked. Rogues. Damn it. Elsa slammed the door shut. Thanking the heaven's for the electronic lock. She had barely breath out a sigh of relief when the door shook violently. "Open it. We will have to take care of this quickly." Elsa recognized the voice as that of the first guy in the middle. "Fuck me." She cursed. 'they are going to break the door!!' She shove a hand into her purse for her phone only to realize that she had lost it the day before. Damn it. She really shouldn't have run away from Jay. Elsa regretted deeply. She contemplated on using the telephone. But thinking about it, the door won't hold for long. Instead she made a run for the kitchen, escaping through the back door. Her legs buckled at a loud growl, which was immediately followed by a crash. Her already bruised knees hit the hard cement, and she let out a muffled
'lights.....lights.....why is there so much lights?' Elsa rolled on her side to avoid the sun rays streaming in from the window, only to fall off the bed. The sudden crash woke up Jay who was sitting down next to her. "Damn it—fucking moping ass." Elsa squirmed on the ground in deep pain. "Luna Elsa." Jay looked shock at the sight, her once sleeping eyes now alert as she scanned the room for any possible dangers. "Hey. Good morning." Elsa gaze took a quick browse at her surroundings. Well aware of where she was at the moment. New Orleans. 'That damned motherfucker....' "Where is Alexander?" She asked, retaining her calmness. "He.....had some important things to attend to." "How could he leave without waiting for me to wake up first?" Elsa fumed. 'Does he even knows how to woo a woman?" "The Alpha was the one who took care of you while you were asleep." Jay said. 'when I was asleep?' The words didn't seem to sit well with Elsa. "For how long was I asleep?" She asked, sitti
Elsa zoomed in on Alexander as he down a cup of water. One after the other. The movement of his fair adam apple was extremely eye catching, making Elsa have vile thoughts that she wasn't supposed to have. She shook her head out of the gutters, then focused her gaze on him once more. 'Exactly what is wrong with me?' She narrowed her eyes dangerously. 'He couldn't have fed me a love potion when I was asleep, could he?' 'that could be true.' Elsa nodded at her deductions. "If werewolf exits, then so do witches. And if witches does exits then acquiring a love potion won't be a problem." "What are you talking about?" Elsa jumped up when she noticed that Alexander was now in front of her. A brow lifted as he asked. "What do you need a love potion for?" "Nothing." Elsa gave a quick reply. Flustered at the fact that she had spoken her last thoughts out loud. 'but then it's not like I owe him any explanation?' Instead, she turned the conversation back to him. "Don't you have anything to
Elsa felt the freezing night breeze smacked my face as she step out of the taxi. She poke her head into the taxi to pay the fee, but the taxi guy waved her off with a smile. "I can see you are troubled miss. I hope this favour of mine brings you luck." Elsa was a little surprised, a smile spreading on her lips. "Thank you very much." "You are welcome." The man replied. "We all need a little help sometimes. A smile can save a life you know? If we all could understand this, the world would beome better place." "True." Elsa nodded thoughtfully. Giving him a wave as he drove off. She straighten her back, dragging her luggage behind her as she walked into the airport. There was this itchy feeling that someone was watching her. Stalking her. And it wasn't friendly. Unfortunately the flight was delayed and she had to wait for some minutes more. She scratched on the back of her palm, something she only does when she is anxious. The stare was still there. It made her very uncomfortab
Alexander followed her eyes, and for once in a long time he became nervous. He was a beast. He knew it. But that side of him was something he desperately wants to hide from her. He could feel her questionly state on him. "You did this." But that wasn't a question. Unfortunately it was impossible to guess the mind of the women in front of him. Her nose scrunched up, eyes twitching a little. "Do we have to bury the body or something? Will we get in trouble?—" Her eyes glance around the ceilings as it cheating for any security cameras. "What if someone finds out?" Alexander was stunned slowly his lips curled into a smile. Guess he was worried for nothing. ★★★★★★★★ Elsa glanced at Alexander's side profile as he drove. A soft sigh escaping her lips at the chaotic thoughts raging in her head. "You followed me didn't you?" The slight quip of his lips was more than enough as an answer. "Where did you stay?" She asked. "A nearby hotel." He replied. "You knew I was going to fly out.
Wait—" Elsa stated. Although her voice wasn't that loud, almost everyone had been paying attention to her from the start, the arena quieting down before you could say. 'silence.' Once again surprised, Elsa showed a wolfish grin. "Why don't we make this even more fun?" Everyone was puzzled, including Jay by her side. Somehow they felt that their Luna's smile looked quite 'EVIL' "Let's bet." Her grin grew wider as she stated. "Place your money people. The winning side takes all the money." There is silence. Something like this had never happened before so they were all in a quiet a shock. "I bet a hundred on Tom." A young middle aged blondie raised his hand. Smiling evily. "Good." Elsa got fired up, glancing at Jay. "Quick, help gather the money." "I will bet two hundred on John." Another voice said. Slowly more people started to place theirs too until almost everyone had taken a side. "Who do you think I should bet on?" Elsa whispered secretly to Jay who nodded at Tom. "Then
Alexander hadn't waited long when he saw Elsa walking down the stairs. His lungs contracted, breaths turning strained, as his eyes flashed different inhuman colours. Alluring, but equally dangerous, and Elsa unconsciously shivered. He could feel his downside tighten at the thought of pulling her against the stairs and unraveling that price of clothing. Still he managed to restrain himself with the last bit of rationality he had left. There was no way he was letting her go out like this. Elsa felt a change occur in her body as Alexander's eyes sized her up and down, he looked just like a predator restraining his hunting nature and that alone turned her legs into jellies. Still she put up a calm facade, lips curling into a soft smile. "Sorry for keeping you waiting." "It's alright." Alexander breathe out under his nose. He took of his suit jacket, wrapping it around the confused Elsa who looked up at him with a puzzled expression. Alexander merely lied without even batting an ey
