Stand-In Luna: The Alpha's Real Mate Chapter 30
“Little bear, let me hug you.”In my dream, I was cuddling a teddy bear. Then I turned over and instinctively hugged something beside me. It was so warm, and it smelled so good.Then—I lost consciousness.The next morning, sunlight filtered through layers of sheer curtains, casting a gentle glow across the large bed.The brightness made me squint, and I slowly opened my eyes.What came into view was an opulent crystal chandelier.Where… where am I?I jolted upright, looking around in panic, and only then realized—I was in Alpha Nick’s bed!Oh my god.What the hell happened last night?I rubbed my temples. The fog in my head started to clear.I remembered Alpha Nick took a knife for me. I brought him back, and after dinner, he went to shower.Then what?What happened after that? Why can’t I remember something?Why am I in his bed?There were only two people in the house last night: me and Alpha Nick. If I didn’t climb into his bed on my own, that means… he brought me here?I hurriedly

I could only use one hand to support Alpha Nick while the other fumbled around in his pocket for the key.Alpha Nick let out a low chuckle. “Where are you touching?”“Sorry!” I snapped out of it, completely embarrassed. I quickly apologized and changed directions to search for the other side.I didn’t know what was wrong today—even the key seemed to be working against me. I searched for ages and still couldn’t find it.Anxious, I started rummaging wildly in his pocket, but the more anxious I became, the harder it was to find anything.“Alpha Nick, where exactly did you put the key? It’s not in here!” After a few minutes of struggling, sweat started to bead on my forehead. And he was still leaning all his weight on me!Alpha Nick reached out with his uninjured left hand, guided my hand from one pocket to the other, and said with a low, amused voice, “It’s on this side.”“You—!” I rolled my eyes dramatically.He’d clearly pointed to the right pocket just now.That devious man must have

Mary fled in panic—what awaited her now was a lifetime imprisonment in the Werewolf Prison.But I had no time to think about her. I quickly turned to check Alpha Nick’s injuries. “You’ve got a cut on your hand. We need to disinfect and stop the bleeding immediately.”Alpha Nick winced but pointed toward his car. “There’s a first aid kit in my trunk.”“I’ll help you to the car.” I glanced at his leg, and guilt surged in my heart.If he hadn’t jumped in to save me, he wouldn’t have gotten hurt.Even though, honestly, I didn’t need to save at all.Still, I helped Alpha Nick sit in the car and get the first aid kit from the trunk.Inside were basic emergency supplies. I pulled out some alcohol and cotton swabs and carefully began cleaning the wound.I leaned in and gently blew on the cut. “This might sting a bit. Try to bear it.”Alpha Nick, as if acting on instinct, reached out to hold my hand.I thought he was losing patience, so I quickly pinned his hand down. “Don’t move. I’m almost d

Night had fallen.Most of my colleagues had already left the office. Only I remained, buried in my work.At some point, I realized the entire floor was empty again—except for me.I stared at the computer screen, carefully working through a report, when a shadow suddenly loomed over me, engulfing me completely.“Who’s there?” I looked up, alert.And I met the impossibly handsome face of Alpha Nick.He wore a crisp white shirt, sleeves rolled slightly, the overhead lights casting a golden halo around him, making him look noble, otherworldly.“Alpha Nick? What are you doing here?” I asked, surprised.He gave a slight, serious smile. “Just checking in on the progress of ‘Rose Under the Moonlight.’”I blinked, confused. Sure, the Lady Fashion line was a key design project, but the Brown Packhouse had far more important ventures than jewelry. And regardless of a project’s importance, it was always someone else reporting to Alpha Nick—not the Alpha himself coming down to the secretary depart

The janitor took out a voice recorder and pressed the button. From it came the voices of two werewolves in conversation.“I’ve already transferred $250,000 to your account. Once it’s done, I’ll send you another $250,000. With that money, you can finally treat your pup’s illness. You want him to grow up healthy, don’t you?” The voice of the young female werewolf was unmistakably Mary’s.The janitor’s voice was laced with nervousness and excitement. “That’s… a lot of money. What exactly do you want me to do?”“It’s simple. You just need to swap out Wendy’s documents,” Mary said calmly.“But… what if I get caught?” the janitor hesitated, his tone uncertain.“Don’t worry. Just pretend you’re doing your cleaning rounds when no one’s around. No one will notice.”Mary let out a light laugh. “Besides, you’re a janitor—three grand a month. Do you know how many years it’ll take to earn half a million? After it’s done, you can quit and lay low in another country. When things settle down, just fi

When Alpha Nick showed no expression and his eyes sharpened, Mary quickly averted her gaze.“I don’t know what nonsense you’re talking about,” she said, pretending to be annoyed. “I’ve got things to do, Wendy. The meeting is over, and I don’t have time to waste with you.”With that, she turned to leave.“Stop right there!” I raised my voice slightly, my tone cold and sharp. “What’s the rush, Mary? Feeling guilty?”“Guilty? About what?” Mary’s hand was trembling, though she tried to keep her composure.“Because you’re the one who had the design stolen and replaced!” I cut straight to the point.Mary’s expression changed subtly, and she quickly defended herself. “Wendy, please don’t throw baseless accusations! Do you even know what defamation means?”“Defamation?” I gave a cold smile. Of course, she wouldn’t admit it so easily.But no matter how she denied it, it was nothing more than a desperate struggle.I was fully prepared. Today, I was going to bring her crime to light—completely a

“Lost the blueprints? And replaced them with blank paper?”Alpha Nick didn’t seem to believe I would make such a rookie mistake. His eyes were fixed on me, waiting for an explanation.But I had no intention of offering one. I remained calm and said, “Let’s not discuss that for now.”Turning to Bena, I asked, “Do we have a backup of the design?”A flash of disdain crossed Bena’s face as she replied, “Wendy, you can’t be serious. Don’t you know all our jewelry designs are hand-drawn? How could there possibly be backups? Don’t you even have that basic common sense?”I nodded in understanding and asked again, “Then how long would it take to redraw them?”“Two days, minimum,” she answered without hesitation.“Wendy, what are you getting at?” Mary shot me a glare, sneering, “Are you planning to delay the meeting? Spend two days redrawing the designs? Let Mr. Miller, who traveled all this way, waste two days because of your rookie mistake?”“Who said anything about two days? I only need one

Just as Bena was about to argue, Alpha Nick nodded approvingly. “Indeed, it’s quite tacky.”“Well, we’ll go back and revise it,” Bena said, forcing a smile upon hearing Alpha Nick agree. She turned to Anni, “You need to put in more effort next time, understand?”Anni nodded, blushing.“Next week, the head of Lady Fashion will be coming to Los Angeles. This time, their Alpha will be joining them, so we need to present a flawless piece,” Alpha Nick said with his usual cold and stern expression.“We’ll give it our all!” Bena gritted her teeth and promised repeatedly that they would submit a perfect design draft before the deadline.“I’ll count on you then…” Alpha Nick’s gaze slid lazily over to me, his eyebrow lifting slightly. “Especially you, Wendy.”I was speechless. What did this have to do with me?I wasn’t the designer. I hadn’t drawn a single line on that draft.But as the project manager, I could only mimic his cold expression and nod in return.The meeting ended. Everyone rose a

“There’s nothing else, so I’ll be going.” I turned and walked out of the office.Rina was standing guard at the doorway with an angry look on her face. The moment she saw me, she stuck her foot out, clearly trying to trip me.But I was quick and agile—I dodged her effortlessly.When I caught sight of the Alpha-class mark on the back of her neck, I couldn’t help but chuckle softly. So, is this an Alpha?“Miss Taylor, didn’t Nick tell you to leave? Why are you still hanging around the door? Guarding it?” I raised an eyebrow with a mocking smile.“What did you say, Wendy?” Rina froze for a second before it hit her—I’d just compared her to a guard dog. Her face turned even darker with rage, her amber pupils glowing, and the pressure around her surged violently.I arched a brow and turned to Zac, a nearby Beta wolf, and said, “Zac, doesn’t our Pack prohibit idlers from lingering around? Why haven’t you escorted Miss Taylor out yet?”“You’re kicking me out?” Rina’s voice shook with fury, he
