The beeping of my alarm continued. I turned to the other side of the bed, using the pillow to cover my ears, but then the beeping continued. I furiously stood up and turned off the alarm.
Looking around the room, no incident of last night came to my mind, my head banging so badly. “Fuck.” I exclaimed as I stood up from the bed, and then I looked down on myself, boom. With no single clothing on, I am stark naked; I couldn't help bulging my eyes out in awe.
The realization just dawned on me that I don't know my way around this apartment; it's rather foreign.
“Where the hell is this?” I asked rhetorically as I stared around the apartment with a furrowed eyebrow, my mind rumbling with hundreds of reasons why I could be naked in a foreign bed, fear creeping into my head, but then it all began to crumble back into my head broken, like a mirage yet in flashes.
There's the bar, there's the dark, handsome man, then. “Do you mind if we fuck?”
“Shit.” I lay down as I threw myself on the bed, using the bedspread to cover my face. I dragged the pillow along, pressing it on my lips as I streamed out in shame.
What the hell did I just do? I fucked a stranger? I am the Luna of the Moonlight Pack; that alone should have kept me on track, but no, this is so unlike me. But…
“I had fun; for the first time in my life, I felt like a woman.” A smile crept to my lips at my words; after all, it's a one-night thing; hopefully I won't ever set my eyes on him again until the day I return to dust.
Standing to my feet again, I walked towards a door, opened it, and it seemed like the exit door. I walked to another, and there it is, the bathroom. I took a rapid bath and walked out, putting on my clothes as fast as I could. Furthermore, I picked up my phone from the nightstand and walked out of the room, taking the stairs to the first floor.
Moreover, I tried not to take notes on how the building looked; it would make this incident rather easier to forget. Turning on my phone as I paddled down the roadside, a call came in almost immediately, as expected; it's Preston.
“Where the hell have you been? I've been trying to reach your damn ass for ages now, but you decide to disappear into thin air with your mobile switched off, right?” He barked into the phone; I could feel his anger erupting from his heart, his voice clarifying that the more, as though he could tear me into myriad pieces if he set his eyes on me.
“I just need some time off…” He cut me short immediately.
“Get your damn ass back into this mansion right this minute; you're needed!” He let out and hung up on me. I increased my steps trying to find where I parked my car last night. Then after almost thirty minutes, I saw it. I searched my pants pocket for the keys, and hopefully I found it.
Pressing the car remote, I stepped in, and after a few minutes, I arrived at the Pack mansion. The air around feels rather tense and eerily calm. I tried to mind link to Coke, but it wasn't going through. I rushed into my room and took yet another bath; I can't afford Preston perceiving a different scent on me; I didn't even get the name of the dark-skinned handsome man. Likewise, I bit my cheeks, stopping myself from smiling.
After a quick bath, I walked into the room with a towel wrapped around my body; I felt my heart jump into my stomach as I saw Preston sitting on the edge of my bed. My hands began to tremble; no doubt he can see the fear written all over my body.
“Kiera?” He called out, and I swallowed hard.
“Yes, my Alpha.” I replied, trying to conceal my fears.
“You have a different scent in you,” he said as he stood up immediately and strolled towards me.
“What do you mean by that? That must be your own different scent playing tricks on you after you must have soaked your body with her sweat.” I replied immediately as I took a step backward, staring directly into his eyes.
A knock came at my door almost immediately. “My Alpha, three wolves have been reported dead.” Cola announced, and I bulged out my eyes, confused.
“What?” I asked, and Preston retreated backwards and threw a hard punch on the wall.
“Last night a family of four people was all dead from a mysterious bite on their necks. Our pack doctors and healers are trying their best to identify which insect bit them.” He started, and I walked to the wardrobe, took a bra, and put it on, careful not to expose any of my body parts.
“After a few hours, we discovered that it might be a virus, as two to twenty people have been reported with the bites, and right now three people are dead; it's spreading.” He turned to me as I was putting on my black jeans pants with a towel still wrapped around my waist.
“We need you to get to the root of this disease with your team of healers; we trust you as the best healer.” He said, and I took the towel and walked into the bathroom and hung it on the towel rack.
“Okay.” I replied as I walked back into my room; he smiled and held my hands, trying to kiss my palm when I yanked his hand off.
“You can go.” I said as I turned to my dressing mirror.
“You know that I love you…” I cut him short immediately with anger burning in my heart.
“Save those words for your fated mate.” He was about to continue his lullaby when a loud knock came on the door again.
“Baby.” His stupid mate called out to him, and he dashed out of my room immediately.
“Fool,” I muttered as I applied lotion on my skin, then picked up my phone and stepped out.
“Kiera.” She must be a fool to think I will answer her.
“I am talking to you.” She voiced out, but I kept walking towards the main door, but then I felt a sharp object pierce through my back, and I halted immediately.
“Where do you think you're going to? How dare you ignore me?” She asked as she raised her hand, and it landed heavily on my cheeks. I swear I saw shining stars from the effect of the slap; I can't feel my cheeks reddening.
“The fact that you're living under the Alpha's roof seems to be creasing your elbow. I'm sure you won't want to see the bad side of me. Peacefully take your things to the pack house and stay there.” She said as she raised my jawline so that she's staring directly into my eyes.
She chuckled lightly. “You don't want it at the omega's house, do you?” She asked, and I immediately slapped her hands off my jaw and slapped her hard on her face, my entire palm covering her eyes, her nose, and her lips.
“I am the Luna of the Moonlight Pack.”
Kiera's POV“You don't need to hold my hand. I am still the Luna of this pack regardless of my offense. Leave me; I can walk,” I said to them, but they all kept a straight face, tightening their hold on my arm as though I was perhaps talking to myself.“That's an order,” I said with my Luna authority, but it seems I am speaking to the wind. The most embarrassing part of it all is that they're not using a car; they intentionally want the entire pack to witness this embarrassment.“Gerald, use the car!” I voiced out as I began to see my people staring in surprise.He didn't even flinch; he kept walking towards the dungeon. At this point it is of no use to say a word; it's obvious he won't listen to a thing I say. Perhaps the minute he was given that order, he stopped seeing me as a Luna and saw me as a criminal. I didn't bow my head in shame; I held my head up high, staring back at anyone who stared at me. I am still the Luna.This is so unexpected of the guards, the same group of peopl
Kiera's POVAfter the confrontation with Tasha, I didn't feel like going into the forest searching for the drugs anymore; I just wanted to go somewhere far, so far away from the pack, from everyone. He can't bring in a liability into my house and still need my help; perhaps I should let the virus get to him so he will know my importance.Just then I saw two men covering their entire bodies with a transparent, nylon-like gown, a nose mask, and gloves. They carried a woman and a little girl child and laid them on a stretcher and pushed it towards the emergency hospital bus. My shoulders dropped instantly. One thing is sure: I am the Luna of the Moonlight Pack, and right now my people require me more than ever.“Mind link, everyone, we're heading into the forest; come with your equipment.” I mind-linked my assistant Martha, then continued walking towards the forest. After thirty minutes, Martha and two others arrived, breathing heavily.“I don't need to tell you what our mission is; it's
Aethelwulf POV“How's the situation over there?” I asked over the phone as my driver kept driving.“It's getting bad by the minute, twenty persons with the same bite,” he said over the line, and I rubbed my temple slightly. This is so bad; I hope the doctors don't get infected too.“I'm close by,” I added, then hung up in the car. I continued doing my research with my tablet.Last night was bliss. I have been celibate for over two years now, but then I don't understand why I gave in to the lady's request without a second thought, as though something pulled me to do that.I shook my head lightly; this isn't the time to be thinking of the sex I had last night. Fair enough, it was bliss, but then it ends there; she should find her way back to wherever she's from.“We're here,” my driver announced, and I looked up from my tablet immediately. I opened the car door and stepped down.“Preston had really done a good job here,” I muttered as I walked towards the gate; the guards might recogniz

Aethelwulf’s POVIt was already late when we arrived. As the driver drove past the dark streets, I had my eyes glued to the car window, staring out of it. Everything felt so foreign, having been in the human world for almost ten years and then coming back after ten years; no single structure is fresh in my head. Kudos to the Alpha; he did an impressive job here. It’s more like a city of its own than a pack.“Boss, I'm heading to the penthouse,” my driver announced, and I didn’t reply at first, contemplating whether he should go there or not.“Okay.” I finally said. After a few minutes we arrived. I walked into the house; as expected, it's sparkling clean. I took a quick shower and opened the refrigerator; I didn't find anything enticing, suddenly craving an outdoor drink. Likewise, I walked out of the house, and thankfully my driver is still around.“Hey, you know a good place I can grab a drink?” I asked, and he nodded, and I hit his shoulder lightly with a smile, then entered into t
Kiera's POV"She's my fated mate." That word kept ringing in my head even as I sat beside him on the couch, his fated mate at his right side, whispering words into his ears as the party continued.The dancers were now on the dance floor, giving their best with smiles, happiness displayed in each step they took, even as everyone wore an admiring look on their faces, I couldn't help the deep frown on my face. It felt as though someone forced my ass in the seat, nothing interests me here. All I want to do right now is to go to my room and have a deep sleep then wake with all this as a dream."Babe, what's the matter?" Preston's voice came from behind, I turned to him and flashed him a fake smile, my heart palpitating loudly the minute I heard his voice, my emotions riling up."I'm feeling a headache." I voiced out as I turned back to the dancers, asking me stupid questions as though he expected me to be okay with the fact that he brought in another woman or the fact that he wants me to s
