Chapter 39: evil plans.-2

His words sent a shiver down my spine, but I refused to show fear.

Luna Elena pov:

Honestly, I can't stand any of this anymore. Sofia and Damian were finally getting closer, and I could tell they were going to mark each soon. But then that werebear had to ruin everything and destroy my plan.

Or so I thought. Because, actually, she created an opportunity for me. Thanks to her, I've been feeding Sofia the mating portion for the past three days, making her think it's helping her with the pain of mate withdrawal. If she takes the portion, just like my dark witch instructed, she'll be forced to go mate Damian. She'll miss him so much, she'll want to be around him, and it'll force them together.

I smiled to myself. Every disappointment is actually a blessing in disguise, and this is mine. I'm going to make Sofia and Damian get closer, their emotional state. I've been taking advantage of the situation, and it's working perfectly.

When Sofia asked me why the portion was weakening her wolf, I told her it was making her wolf rest and relax from the mate withdrawal pain, and she didn't suspect a thing.

I hope, for Beth’s sake, she didn't destroy my plan. Because I won't mind taking her out if she's ruined everything. I don't care if she's carrying my grandchild or not. No one is going to ruin my plan to protect my son.

The meeting was dragging on, with elder Michael saying, "I think this is a good opportunity for our territory and pack."

I looked at him, curious. "How do you mean?"

"Luna, look at this," he said. "Bethany is a princess in Bearmont, the precious cousin of King Zorvath. Imagine if Damian finally marries her. We have the protection of the Bearmont kingdom, and with the constant rogue attacks, this is exactly what we need to bring in soldiers to protect our borders."

My husband, however, was not impressed. "You want werebears living in our pack?" he asked, his voice cold. "Do you know how power-hungry those bears are? They won’t mind wiping us out and taking over this territory."

I looked at him, saying . "My son won’t mate with that female. Yes, she'll be carrying my grandchild, but there are many alphas who have raised their bastard children without rejecting their mates. My son is not going to reject Sofia."

Elder Thomas stood up and said, "Alpha, we're not saying Damian has to reject Sofia. We're saying she can stay with Damian to calm his wolf down, but Bethany should be Damian's wife. With Bethany as Damian's wife, everything is assured."

One thing clicked in my mind: these elders have always been power-hungry and evil. This is more reason why my son needs to take over the Alpha position soon, just like my husband and I have planned. With Damian's power, we can definitely flush these treacherous elders out of the pack.

I've always suspected the elders were up to something, especially with the illegal activities going on around the park territory. But I've never found any evidence to pin it against any of them. Now, I realize they want to use this to control my son. If Damian eventually marries that woman, they'll use her to control him, because they couldn't control my husband.

My son may be born of two wolf parents, but the Moon God has blessed him with a Lycan, making him really powerful – more powerful than my husband. The elders have been scared ever since they realized what Damian and his friends Josh and Mark are capable of.

Elder Michael spoke up again, "What does it matter? Sofia is just an omega. She should be grateful that Damian acknowledges her."

Before I could say anything, a powerful aura filled the room, and everyone bent their necks in submission. I looked to the entrance and saw Beta Ben standing there, half-shifted.

Only Lycans can shift this way, and I wondered why Ben has so much power and aura. Even I, the Luna, who has higher rank than him is affected by his aura.

I immediately mind -link my mate and asks, "What's going on? Why does Ben have all of us bent in submission?"

He said, "I've always wanted to tell you this, but I was looking for the best time." With the elders saying trash about his daughter, he'd finally let it out.

I ask, "What do you mean?"

He said, "I'm sorry, Ele, for not telling you this sooner. It was something we decided to keep a secret for security reasons."

I said, "Speak already, mate."

He took a deep breath. "Ben is not just a Beta wolf. He's the crown prince of Lunarion, king Klaus's grandson.
