Deluna Hansen.
"Alpha, we have the spies in the dungeon already." Zia tells me, walking into the office with her heeled boots making clicks against the floorboards. I drop my pen and look up, "Perfect," I compliment their achievement and she smiles.
"Beta Samuel specifically took part in that only for your love. You should give him a try, Alpha." Zia says jokingly but my wolf doesn't take it as a joke. I fight the urge to pounce on her and remind myself she's my beta. I calm my wolf down and stand up, dropping the paper sheet on the desk.
"Say anything, but don't step a foot out of the office. And you might just want to tell Damien to prepare for a gorgeous dinner." Her pretty blonde eyes gleam at the mention of his name. Clearly, she has feelings for the vampire every other person in the pack counts to be rogue, "Or you might like to offer yourself to him as dinner."
"Alpha!" Her voice is scolding but her face says something different. Crimson colored cheeks can only tell of fluttering feelings.
"It's obvious you like him, amico," I say, " Ed è piuttosto quello caldo." I wink at her before turning around and walking out.
I am Alpha Deluna Hansen, 23, and the Luna of Crystal Promise pack (Pacchetto Promessa Di Cristallo). I don't have you to tell, I love being respected and given that accord. To be the strongest and most respected female alpha means a lot of dedication and vigilance. But I have something more important to bother about than about my reputation. I have less than five months to present my mate to mother. I had promised her (that) I would present my beautiful relationship with my mate whenever I clock twenty five, and that was before she died. If anything ever really matters to your subjects as an alpha, then it's being dedicated to your words. That surely means a lot.
I make my way to the dungeon as the rest of the pack won't stop greeting me. The place is dark and smells of dried blood, just what it is used for. The dungeon is dirty and stinking with humans and wolves and a bit of vampires' dried dead bodies and splashed bloods everywhere. It has been used more in the years before than now. Just making an estimate about the number of bodies that has been killed in this place over the years makes me realize why I am regarded as the most powerful and the most respected female alpha.
After a second scanning around the room, I finally find the two livings in a corner of the room. They aren't dead yet but it looks like they've been battling for their life for hours now. And their skin? It's burning already. Wolfsbane! It's even beginning to affect me.
I squat before the two dying werewolves and one of them slowly looks up. A smirk plays on my lips as I read the pitiful expression on the beta's face.
"Mercy?" I laugh at the word and he tries to open his mouth to talk but the wolfsbane potion on an open wound... The smell is beginning to make me weak too.
"Don't worry, your blood won't dry up like the others. You would make a gorgeous dinner for our hot vampire." I tease but the next second, I plunge my claws into their heart. A loud, sharp grunt and silence. Death! I smirk at their splashed blood. If there's something I love then it's the sight of the enemy's blood. And if there's a job I preferred most, then it's preparing the best of dinner for Damien with their blood.
I stand on my feet and replace my claws with human fingers before stepping out of the dungeon. I walk to the stairs that leads to my stay. I ascend it and step into the hampton styled living room. I walk to my room and to the bathroom where I cleanse my blood stained self.
"Alpha." I turn around and it's Zia looking so fucking hot for the party. Grey tank top, high waist shorts stopping halfway her butts and square toe boots. Damn, who the hell does she plan to seduce in the party?! There's no Damien there, is there?
"Get in the car already, Zia. You won't tell me you aren't dressed for the party... Lemme think, Damien's gorgeous dinner?" I tease but she frowns, "I brought you something, alpha." And I furrow my brows at her. Something? Bad news?
" Spill it!"
" Wolfsbane. It's fool moon tonight and there'll be humans there," Right! I'd be almost useless for the next minutes just to ease myself from the full moon effect. I grab the sealed bottle from her and without one more thought, I tear off its tab. On opening it, the scent fills my nose, starting to create reactions but that doesn't stop me as I gulp down the whole content. Zia watches me throw the empty bottle away and snap my eyes around the pack's field.
"Are you okay?" Worry laces in her voice as I try to remain fit. But I ain't okay... Damn, it feels like I'm finally going to die. My heartbeat starts to go unsteady as Zia opens the passenger door for me to get in. I manage to sit myself and clasp my arm together. I am beginning to get feverish already and weak all over. I am used to this_ the fucking feeling I get when I ingest in diluted wolfsbane just to protect myself and those around me during full moons. Zia joins me in the car and assists me with doing my seatbelt before driving off.
Zia wakes me up from my slumber when we get there. Still feeling very weak but not feverish anymore, I get out of the car without any help and slam the door close. Zia too gets down and crosses over to me.
"Do you need any help, alpha?" She still has that worried look on her, like I might just slump and die sooner. I could've said yes but being an alpha, weakness isn't something you should accept, and to your beta. That only indicates and tells people how weak and unsuccessful your reign would be.
"I'm fine, beta." My tone isn't nice, not even near nice. Should I say arrogant? But I care less.
"Sorry, alpha." But I don't acknowledge her apologies, I turn around and head into the party.
(Amico: friend.
Ed è piuttosto quello caldo : And he's quite the hot one.)
Deluna Hansen."It's nice to have you here, alpha Hansen." But I can barely mistake the hatred in his voice as love and the contemptuous smile on his face as a good one. A plan for tonight? Oh yeah, it's full moon tonight." And you make me wonder, why the hell would you organize such an important party during full moon?" But I don't wait for him to reply. I cover up my scorn for him and put on a smile. "See you around, Caleb." I challenge him to a raging fight by calling him directly with his first name to see his reaction. I smirk when I see his eyes almost glowing. I like this, always loved it."Don't spoil the party, Caleb." I wink at him and move back. I turn my still weak self around and trudge to the bar."Valpolicella, please." I give my order as I slip into a bar stool."Italian?" The red haired bartender tries to start a conversation and being aware of the fact th
Deluna Hansen.But he gives me no time to say another word as he pulls away and glares down at me. "Wear the dress already. We're going for hiking, Alpha." That wasn't the least nice but then, he'd add a little respect by calling me Alpha. And even if I was going to protest, there was no way he would listen to it because he left the room just as the words left his mouth. And hiking doesn't sound bad, quite romantic! Except for the fact that I'm kidnapped here in Cinque Terre, all the damned way from New York, by a human mate. I turn around and walk to where he had dumped the bag. I pick it up and make my way upstairs again."You haven't tell me where the hell we're going and it's been minutes since we've been walking past this deserted route!" I rant at my human mate. I hate this_ being controlled by one human. It doesn't make sense, even to me, that almighty alpha obediently hikes with a human. But then, I need to make peace with my m
Deluna Hansen."What about your marriage with Ms Williams? When it's going to be?""Marriage?" I wrinkle my brows as I try to grasp in the meaning of that word. His marriage with one Ms Williams? WTH, my mate is getting married! He turns his gaze to me but takes it away immediately. Whatever his old man says is true, he's getting happily married soon! But how dare he...?!" Let's not talk about that now, Elio. We should have dinner already." He rasps out, shunning his old man and I bite my lips. Seriously? My wolf is starting to get hurt... He's getting married."Sure, but she called me last night and asked if...""Elio!" The old man almost flinches as he shuts up and gawks at the table. "Sorry." He lets out and urges, "Let's have lunch already, it's Mary's best."But I would rather calm myself down than sit and have a meal while trying to accept the fact that my hot human
Deluna Hansen."What were you saying, alpha?" His voice is mocking, of my relented self and I hate it that I'm unable to control my feelings with him. When he brings his face even more closer, I dock mine to the back and can't be more glad when he releases me." Speak up, Luna. I have something to attend to." Wow, he even knows my name! So damn perfect." I want to go back to New York." No, that sounds stupid, just like I'm really a subject of his. After thinking of a better rephrase, I open my mouth and talk, "Take me back to New York."That wasn't a better rephrase but at least, the tone was better and it should do for it. I never made a request, that was a command.He sighs and moves back. "Too bad, I won't be listening to your command. There's a reason I brought you here to Italy and if we aren't going to find out that reason, then none of us is getting out of this place either." Wit
Deluna Hansen.He pulls away and for the first time, he feeds me one of his smiles, "Missed me already, Luna?"I frown at the familiar pride lacing in his voice and I move back, "Well, I didn't. You walked out after depriving me of my right to get back to my family. I mean who the hell does that?!" I snap, being careful to use the word 'family' instead of 'pack'.He chuckles and says, "No other man than the man standing right before you, of course! Oh Luna..." But hearing his name called from the other room by either his old man or Mary gets him distracted and he abandons his sentence just to go meet his caller. I watch him disappear through the kitchen's door and turn around when Summer won't stop clearing her throat noisily. When I turn my attention to her, she wears that naughty smirk and leans closer as if to say something, "C'è qualcosa tra voi ragazzi, Zia?"Damn, what the he
Deluna Hansen."You look hot." My mate tells me causing an appreciating smile on my lips and causing my wolf to react happily. "Grazie." I tell him with the most sweetest voice I can fake in the moment. And I urge him once more, "Let's get going already.""Tell me about the party?" I demand the moment he drives out into the road and he throws me a short glimpse before speaking up, "It's the kind of party you should like, that type of party where most of its attendants are binded by hatred, mock and contempt.""That type of party that'll likely end up in a fight and earn me a new opponent." I correct him and he nods. But something hits me again, something rather important and I turn my gaze at him. "What'll you be doing at such party?""Because you think I'm human and weak?" He retaliates and I bite my bottom lip, trying to contain my anger within myself. No one dares answer my question with a q
Deluna Hansen.When I pull away, I'm surprised when I see those fangs and eyes similar to that of Damien. Vamp! What the hell, I wasn't so crazy as to kiss a vampire, was I?! Damn me, twice! He smirks at my expression and winks before walking off. My wolf starts to scold me and curse me about kissing another man that's not my mate, and especially a rival creature.It wasn't my fault, only if my mate didn't have to annoy me so much. Well, I try to think that way but deep down, I'm bothered... Bothered about the reason behind the smirk the vampire held! What if he's gonna harm me or my pack? Or he needed a kiss from me to make a spell?! Hell, no! What was I thinking?! And why the hell did I suddenly go so soft to allow a human rule over me?! Seriously, where the hell has my alpha self gone?! Just where the hell?! I tense when I feel those hot breathe fan my neck and that very familiarly fascinating scent hits me as my wolf's mood becomes enlig
Deluna Hansen.The bright sun rays are the first thing that greets me the moment I blink my lids open. I groan and roll over to the other side of the surface with little light, with my eyes still closed."Awake?" His husky voice turns out to be the first melody I'll listen to in the day and it only brings me memory of our hot lovemaking last night... Lovemaking?! Oh now, that's the wrong word but I definitely don't know what to call it. There was foreplay! My wolf starts to chuff for the fact that it had an intense contact with its mate. Well, I haven't mark him yet but lastnight was surely enough to bribe that from it for the while."Morning," he greets me as I sit up, grabbing the duvet as a cover for my naked chest, "how are you?" Worries? He isn't kidding me right now, is he?! I'm Alpha... Why should he expect me to feel pain after fucking the whole night? And to say, that wasn't even my first time.
