Luna's War & Love

No

Allison POV

I couldn't see who was holding onto me. Ivory was howling in my head.

MATE! MATE! TIME TO MATE! MARK HIM. TAKE OUR ALPHA AND COMMAND HE MARK YOU.

Ivory! What in the actual- At the same time I couldn't control myself. I held onto him. Looked at him for the first time. He was beautiful! Oh course he had to be! I eye rolled so hard at myself mentally.

He was taller than Carter and Zander. 6'5. His eyes were light brown. I could see myself in them perfectly. Dark brown curly hair. Stubble facial hair. I felt my hand rub against his face. He was wearing gray slacks and a blue polo. I was hypnotized. It's like I heard a romantic classical song play in my head as I took him in with my eyes.

He got closer, grabbed my cheek. I closed my eyes as he leaned in to kiss me.

-WAIT!! What am I doing?! No, I'm not falling in love. Bond is was killed my mother. I pushed him away. "NO! I'M NOT YOUR MATE!"

What are you doing?

Ivory was whimpering.

MATE

No. Not in this lifetime.

I noticed everyone staring at us. Their eyes wide opened. I just noticed I yelled at the alpha! Oh my goddess. "I'm so sorry, Alpha Troy. I didn't mean to yell. Please accept my apologies."

He looked so sad after I pushed him away. Ivory was still whimpering. I had to change this whole awkward situation. I looked at Willa, I was totally embarrassed.

"Alpha Troy, nice to see you. Let's forget the pleasantries and talk about business, yes?" Willa grabbed me by the arm and walked into his office. The guys followed us. Alpha Troy sat at his desk.

"We will all talk once I talk to my Luna. The rest of you please leave." He gently commanded. Willa whispered, "Sorry I tried, I'll just be outside if things get weird."

"Sure thing Alpha." Beta said and the gamma followed suit.

"Why did you push me away? I am your mate Allison. I know you feel that too." He asked with the saddest eyes. I felt horrible too. I felt the strong bond. I was just fighting it. I just thought about my mother. How I was told she jumped in front of father and died, only for him to die seconds after. Pointless. I will forever be alone to avoid such tragedies. Such heartbreak.

"Alpha Troy. I do indeed feel it. I, just..." He cut me off.

"Call me Troy. I understand that you're going through a lot. I will offer whatever it is you need to help with in this difficult time. I know my love may not help everything, but my actions will try their best."

This was way too much. I was only here for Willa. I wanted to know how they would prepare for Midnight's attack. If it would involve my brother... Then have Willa show me how to use the ring. I would go back to the cabin and live in peace. I'll just nod and agree to avoid uncomfort. He doesn't need to know I plan on leaving without a trace.

Ivory whimpered. MATE.
