Kill The Luna

POV Alpha Stefan

Stefan , my sweet love. Veronica let out a loud, annoying whine from the messy bed sheets. Come back to sleep. I am missing your body already. You have been standing by that window all night long.

I kept my back turned to her, crossing my arms tight. Just stay on your side of the bed and stop bothering me, Veronica. Can you not just be by yourself for one single day?

A loud, angry huff left her mouth. She shook the heavy bed frame and threw two soft pillows hard against the wooden floor. But I miss you, Damon! Come back to bed right now!

I turned around fast, letting out a loud, angry roar. I do not want to touch you right now, Veronica! Do you never get tired?

She covered her face with her hands, forcing out loud, fake crying noises. Hmm! You do not talk to me like that. You know perfectly well I am a very emotional girl. I have a fragile heart, and now I am incredibly angry!

She pushed the warm blankets off, stomping her bare feet on the ground. She muttered angry curses under her breath and slammed the bedroom door completely shut behind her.

I totally ignored her drama. A much bigger problem was eating at my mind all morning.

I honestly do not understand why Fedora actually left me. Yes, I am an Alpha. I am way too big and important for her low level. She was completely useless without me protecting her. But what gave her the crazy courage to run away tonight?

I just wanted to teach her a small lesson. I was simply tired of her at that exact moment. I wanted to use a different woman for the night. That was all.

But a heavy, cold feeling sat deep inside my chest. A strange hole was growing inside my heart, and another woman's body could not fill it up.

Did she finally wake up and act smart? I shook my head fast. No. That weak girl loves me way too much. This whole thing just has to be a stupid prank. She would never actually leave me forever.

But another scary thought bothered me. The exact second she jumped out that high window, I ordered my best guards to run down and collect her broken body.

But they found absolutely nothing. Her body completely vanished into thin air. They only found a dark pool of blood on the wet grass. It looked exactly like someone caught her and ran away very fast.

Do I have a dirty traitor hiding inside my own pack? I rubbed my tired face. Nothing adds up here.

She was much sweeter than Veronica, but she was just too innocent. She did not know any fun styles in the bedroom. She did not know how to act wild for me.

So, I kept her around for two simple reasons. She would give me strong children one day, and she cooked my meals. Her cooking tasted so amazing. It was a hundred times better than my expensive palace chefs.

The heavy bedroom door clicked open again. Veronica walked back into the room. She kept her arms folded tight over her chest, pushing her bottom lip out in an angry pout.

Fine. I let out a tired breath. I am sorry.

A smug, winning smile replaced her pout. She walked over quickly and wrapped her hands flat against my bare chest.

Go down to the kitchen and cook some food for me. I pushed her hands away slowly.

She threw her head back, staring at me with huge, surprised eyes. A loud, insulting scoff left her mouth. Cook for you?

You heard exactly what I said.

She let out a dry, mocking laugh. You cannot be serious right now. Are you crazy?

I crossed my arms, giving her a hard stare. I am completely serious.

She took a big step away from me. I am very sorry, Damon. But I am your chosen woman, not your lowly maid. You will treat me like a proper lady. You have plenty of dirty maids downstairs. Go tell them to cook your food.

A sharp pain hit my head. I really wished Fedora was standing here right now. She never raised her voice or argued with my orders. She never complained when I told her what to do. She always tried her absolute best to serve me and keep me perfectly happy. I really cannot wait for her silly prank to end so she can come back home.

A loud knock hit the bedroom door. A tall guard walked in, keeping his head bowed low.

Alpha, the big meeting will begin in exactly three hours.

I frowned, turning away from the window. What meeting?

The guard swallowed hard. The special pack meeting I told you about last week, sir. All the Alphas from the neighboring packs and the high elders will be there.

I turned my back to him, waving my hand in the air. I am not in a good mood today. I am not going anywhere.

The guard did not move. Your older brother will be attending, Alpha.

My entire body froze completely solid. My fists curled into tight, angry balls at my sides. My worst enemy. Michael.

I spun back around, my eyes flashing a dangerous dark color. Fine. Go prepare my best guards and get the cars ready outside. I just had a sudden change of mind.

Yes, Alpha. He bowed again and rushed out the door.

I stared at the empty doorway, making a dark promise in my mind. As soon as I return from this meeting, I am going to hunt Fedora down. I do not care where she is hiding. I do not care what she wants. She belongs entirely to me. And I will drag her right back to this palace.
