Chapter 13.

Sorren’s POV

The faceless Luna made my skills look like a joke. I spent every sword strike trying to keep my head safe from all her attempts to kill me.

She barely spoke a word and disappeared into nothing after almost killing me countless times.

I had Mark, the Pack’s doctor , check out some of the injuries I sustained because they refused to heal as fast as every other wound.

“I need to see whatever is doing this, because it doesn't seem normal any longer.” Mark sighed, shaking his head.

And now, Alpha Harrison and a part of his pack stood before me. Nia was right beside him, and I couldn't help but look at her.

“Alpha Sorren!” Harrison chuckled. “Thank you for letting us stay in your pack.”

“Don't mention.” I responded.

“You don't have to be so cold.” He rolled his eyes, moving over to hug Selina.

Nia moved closer, looked in my eyes as she pulled me in for a hug like her mate had done with Selina.

“Don't touch me.” I growled softly so that she'd be the only one to hear. She pulled away seconds later, and we all stood again.

“You must be very tired from your journey.” Selina smiled. “Come in and have something to eat.”

As they led them in, my eyes caught the lady that bore a resemblance to Mira, and I noticed that she had her eyes on someone.

I took a quick glance at who she was looking at, and it was Mira. She looked very terrified , and I was very interested in knowing what was happening.

We all sat at the table. Harrison was at my right, and Selina was at my left. Khalid stood behind me. Nia was beside her mate. We exchanged too many glances for people sitting down with their partners.

The omegas filled the table while Harrison bored me with unnecessary information about the battles he has been fighting.

“Where is the rogue you bought from me?!” Harrison asked out of the blue, and everyone's eyes widened.

“Why do you care?” I asked, answering with so much calm. “I bought her from you, and that's where your interests end.”

“Why's he so uptight?” Harrison asked Selina, pointing his index finger at me in a mocking manner.

“He's not always like that, trust me.” Selina chuckled.

I was getting irritated by Nia’s silence, and the consistent scheming of the lookalike.

Mira came in with the other omegas, and I could see the way her hand shook like she was about to be killed. She walked close to me and dropped a big bowl of chicken close to where I sat.

“Here she is.” Alpha Harrison chuckled, and everyone's attention turned to Mira. I'd eventually have to scold whoever is making her do so much work when she literally just arrived at the pack.

Alpha Harrison raised his hand to slap Mira’s butt since it had pushed out to the back because she bent. His hand was so close to touching her when I caught him, stopping it by less than an inch.

“I'd advise that you be less barbaric.” I growled at him, sending him a death stare. “Your mate is right there, and you're performing such a shameless act.”

He broke into laughter and I yanked his hand down, making him laugh harder.

Selina and the others at the table chuckled nervously.

“Why are you serving? Aren't you in the cleaning group?” I asked Mira through a mind link.

“I… I… I… was filling in for someone…” She responded with a shaky voice.

How the hell does one even have a shaky voice when it's a mind link?!

“Do you realize that that's her sister right over there?” Alpha Harrison pointed at the one that sent Mira a death stare.

“I am Arianna.” The lady stood up and bowed gently.

“What am I supposed to do with that information?” I asked, turning to Alpha Harrison.

“Just to show you that I got the better end of the bargain.” He chuckled. Raina and the others brought in more food.

I caught Arianna staring at Mira so much that I got annoyed. Mira was already walking out when I decided to do something very impulsive.

“Mira.” I called back, and I heard her gasp from where I sat. “Have a seat and eat with us.”

Selina looked at me with widened eyeballs. Nia was shocked by my sudden command, and Harrison just seemed intrigued by it.

“After all, her sister eats with us at the same table.” I added a reason that seemed good enough.

“Oh oh.” Harrison muttered. “Your Luna has to be careful, else she might just be displaced.”

The look of terror on Mira’s face at that statement made me more worried.

Slowly, she took her seat, and I pulled Selina close and planted a kiss on her lips in front of everyone so much that she was shocked.

“Don't listen to the low life.” I whispered to her, and her face brightened up immediately.

“Shall we eat?” Selina asked with a bright smile, grabbing the fork on the table.

“Alpha, can I leave?” Raina asked through a mind link. She was standing behind Arianna who was about to take her first bite of the meal. “I've done something a little too mischievous.”

Raina has always been my favourite omega. She was always very vocal about her feelings and thoughts, and she was the best fit for Mira.

“Leave.” I responded, and she hurriedly walked out. Mira had food on her plate, but she just stared at it like it was not something she could eat.

I hate that I'm too concerned about her. I shouldn't be bothered, but I am.

“What the fuck?!” Arianna snapped, spitting out her first taste of the food into the handkerchief that was closest to her.

“What's wrong?” Nia asked her.

“It's so fucking salty.” She rolled her eyes.

An omega tasted the same food and shook her head.

“It isn't salty.” She said, but the traumatized Arianna lashed out at her.

I scoffed, seeing that Raina had laced her spoon with salt, only enough for the first taste, given that she doesn't stir the food. A risky gamble.

The drama went on and on, but I was more focused on Mira just fiddled with her food, probably feeling very out of place.

“Sorren, can I speak with you in private?” Nia asked in front of everyone.

I was about to respond when Peter rushed in, walking towards me like some incident had happened.

He whispered words to Khalid who in turn bent over to whisper them to me.

“The hunters have been spotted.”
