MY DESIRED LUNA

Chapter 3

Unexpectedly, Florence jerked as though finally back on planet Earth. Her eyes met Anastesia's whose gaze fixated on her made her frown.

"What's wrong?"

"Who are you?" She blurted.

Jaw-dropping at the question, Florence made a move towards Anastasia but stopped at Anastesia's raised index finger. "Don't come closer," she warned.

"Come on, why? You're asking about my identity as though you have no idea of it. I am Florence, your best friend."

"What happened to you some minute ago?" Anastasia gazed at her brunette hair and hazel eyes which returned to normal.

"Nothing. Maybe I zoom her on you but that is all. Come along, let's get prepared for the trip." Florence moved out of sight, clearly evading her question.

True to Sebastine's words, the elders were gathered in the courtroom, none smiling. Silver pack, his pack whom he was an Alpha King had just fourteen elders. The fourteen elders looked young but were actually older men with vast experience and knowledge to guide him to manage the pack effectively.

Walking in, the elders muttered their greetings, all casting a look on his way. His cold attitude really glaring beneath the scary features he exhibited.

It's been hours since his search for Anastasia began, yet there was no news of her. It was as though she ceased to exist on earth, vanishing completely from his sight. Argon wasn't helping matters.

He was forced to go on a run in his wolf's form to join in the search. This wasn't his thing as Alpha Kings were not permitted to go on a run, except on a full moon day.

"Elders of Silver Pack, you are welcome. Is there a problem in the pack that requested my presence at such short notice?"

"Yes," one of the elders spoke up. "There is a planned invasion by Garlet's pack. The Alpha claimed this is a revenge plot."

Dominic frowned. "Why? We had not offended his pack in anyways neither have we crossed their boundaries." Guilt-ridden boldly on the faces of some elders whom he trusted had him rethinking. "Or is there any that I am not aware of?"

"Yes, Alpha king. One of our pack members murdered Alpha Bernede's daughter, Wolfe who failed to reciprocate his feeling of love after finding out from Wolfe's beta that she was in love with Alpha Troy, Alpha of Grenade pack."

Dominic assimilated the revelation. None of his thoughts or emotions reflected on his stoic, cold face. "If that is the case, the murderer should face the consequences of his actions and not the entire pack members!" Dominic stated coldly.

"You are right but unfortunately, Alpha Bernard insists on getting revenge by murdering both innocent and guilty ones."

"Then by all that is holy, let him bring it on."

"We can't let that happen!" Elder Orion protested rudely, rising to his feet. Fire shot from his ears. "How can you be this heartless and emotionless over the affairs and lives of your pack members!"

All elders gazed on, constantly diverting their gaze to Dominic, gauging his reactions.

"True, you are emotionless! You have no conscience since you sold it to the devil."

"If you are done ranting, take a sit and calm your wolf and your nerves!" Dominic ordered.

Grudgingly, Elder Orion sat. His hatred for Dominic was never hidden from public sight.

"We will talk to the warriors to get prepared for the invasion. Meanwhile, the murderer should be brought to my mansion immediately. Necessary actions will be taken and publicly announced to serve as a lesson for others who would choose to follow his path."

The elders conceded, inclining their heads in approval.

"Yes, Alpha King."

"I believe that's all on the agenda?"

"No. There is another pressing need that is of concern to us." At Dominic's arched brow of encouragement. One of the elders proceeded, receiving a slight nod of encouragement from the elders.

"The absence of a Luna beside you."

Dominic tensed at their words. Damn! He didn't see it coming! He didn't know they were going to bring it up. His parents and siblings constantly breached the topics but never had it dawned on him to be pestered by the elders.

"You need a Luna. The silver pack needs a Luna. The female wolves need someone to relate with, share a challenge or two with and get some encouragement."

"Don't worry about that. I will get a Luna soon." He assured, intentionally dismissing them."thanks for the concern."

This was the right spot, she was told. Standing on the forest path, concealed by the branches was a beautiful slender lady with toned abs, long legs and long blond hair. Her baby blue eyes the colour of the sky complimented her complexion.

Secretly, she constantly shoots her gaze out to scan for him. There was no denying the reasons for being there. A big bird leaked a piece of information concerning Alpha Dominic's secret search for a lady.

Nyx would certainly have switched to the secret lady's form if she had a clue as to what the lady looked like.

Footsteps drew closer. Folding her hands, Nyx counted to ten then stepped out, intentionally bumping into him. Her breast brushed softly on his manly chest, inhaling his pure, masculine scents.

Her innards throbbed with desire to have him right there on the grasses.

"Hi, handsome Alpha King," she began provocatively, running her hands on his chest.

His cold gaze pierced at her, sending out warning signals she chose to ignore. This was the man she had always had an eye for. Alpha King Dominic was the dream of every single lady in the silver pack.

His bachelorhood made him available and an option to be considered.

Though an Alpha, Nyx didn't consider him forbidden to her, maybe because her father was one of his elders and held such a tight influence on him.

"The bitchy b***h is here again!" Dominic muttered, taking a step away from her, revolted.

"You can't go ahead calling your future Luna a b***h, you know that?" She flaunts herself at him, constantly making gestures to her breast half exposed.

"True, I don't intend to make you my Luna. Even the moon goddess forbid such union!"

His words shattered her. "Hey! Stop bringing the moon goddess into her conversation. Come on," she swiftly lowered her voice, trying to guide him forward.

"I want you as mine!"

"It's obvious that you lost your sanity in an attempt to look ravishing." His gaze diverted to her body.

"It was an effort put solely for you. Do you like it?" Nyx smiled.

"Even if I was on heat and drunk, you will never be considered an option! Get off my sight! b***h!" Not waiting for a response, Dominic shoved her out of his way.

Watching his receding figure, Nyx's gaze hardened. She won't give up easily. She would have him on her bed.

"It is time to apply your scent. " A voice muttered behind her.

Nyx turned. She had a dirty secret. She was not even a wolf, and never would be!
