Lahat ng Kabanata ng The Commander's Match: Kabanata 21 - Kabanata 30

GemmaThere was a long silence as the Elders seemed to mind link among themselves.  Then all eyes turned to her once more.  Well, the elder’s eyes, none of the others had stopped watching her.“Is it true, Commander, that Luna Gemma is your mate?”  Elder Heath asked with a stern scowl on his features.The commander came to his feet once more, and stood proudly.  “That is correct, Elder Heath.”“And yet, she has no mark or the slightest scent of you on her.”  Elder Heath answered in reproach.“We have not had time to get to know each other, Elder Heath.”  The commander answered in return, his expression and voice emotionless.“Very well.”“Elders, I request permission to woo Luna Gemma as a chosen mate.”  Attorney Thompson spoke as he came to his feet.Elder Heath blinked at him in surprise.  “Is it the pac

GemmaElder Daniels had started explaining some things to her the previous night.  It had ranged from normal pack traditions to a Luna’s duty during those traditions.  He also explained that she would need to go through the initiation as a Luna before the tournament happened, but Elder Crawford insisted that they needed to do a before and after scan of her brainwaves to see if there would be a change.After dinner she had tiredly trudged up the stairs, but Commander Dale intercepted her and informed her that she would be sleeping on the Alpha floor as the Luna of the pack and that all her things had been moved.  He had also told her that, for the moment, she would have to work in the office with them until an office could be cleaned up and prepared according to her specifications.  Yet another thing she would have to oversee.Her night seemed too short after that and she sluggishly raised herself when her alarm went off.  She was d

DaleTwo weeks into their month of preparation for the tournament Dale found himself both amazed and angered by what he could see happening around his mate.Against all odds, she had managed to be a quick learner, moving on to more advanced self-defense as well as soaking up information about packs and history like a sponge.  She had also managed to have most of the shops revamped and their omegas now had quite a few businesses running.They now had a diner, a nail bar, boutique, hairstylists, coffee shop, building company and a combined gift shop and homemade candy store.  They even had an ice cream stand.But what angered him was seeing how the Elders had both used her as a lab rat and trained her to be nothing more than arm candy for an alpha.  Was that what they expected a Luna to be?  Pretty but brainless?Apparently, she had decided that her turning would take place over the weekend since she was in perfectly healthy condi

DaleHe heard her screaming as he came down the hospital corridor; he and her friends had come to support her through the turning, thinking it had been her decision.But it turned out that she had been led into a trap and Elder Heath had decided to take away her only decision.  He was livid and he didn’t blame Wade for nearly shifting.  He was also battling Duke, knowing that if he shifted he would be of no help to her, but then she stared down Elder Crawford with a measure of hatred that made everyone close to him cold with which she delivered her warning that she would go rogue.He would go rogue with her if she decided to do that.  She had not deserved the treatment she had been given by the elders.  Elder Stuart was livid as was everyone else that was close to her in the room.  The pack medical team was crowding the door with their own anger clear in their growls and attempted to breech the door to protect their Luna.Bu

DaleThe next day they tried to help his confused mate to find some kind of middle ground with her wolf.  It was difficult and he was livid when he realized that the Elders had not prepared her for any of it.  It was the Elders’ job to assist a new wolf with everything they would need to know to make the transition as smooth as possible.He ensured to add that to his ever growing complaints against the three Elders that had caused all this.  He was sure that the Supernatural council were currently inundated with complaints, since word had gone out about them removing the three Elders from their midst and lodging complaints against them. He was sure that those three had spent years pushing their own agenda and had hoped to do the same with Gemma, but she was not such an easy target.  She was too strong and had no background of submitting to the Elders above all.  He was very proud of her and he pitied her for the battle she wa
