Vampire Luna

Would you sound like Heaven?

Jett

It was one of those days where I couldn’t hide from Ellie. Friday was when the pack got together and had a big family dinner, so of course I had to be there, and of course Ellie would be there. Which meant she would be seated to my left, and Connor to my right. Ellie was draping herself around me once we finished eating, and talking with her friend Sarah who sat in front of her. Ellie and Sarah were Omega’s but Ellie got special permission from my father and mother to sit next to me, and they eventually granted Sarah permission to sit across from Ellie. I tried to ignore her the whole time, trying to focus on Connor and Garrett. 

Eventually when the pack members started to leave, Ellie leaned over so her mouth was by my ear, “Do you want to head upstairs?”

I truly wanted to answer no, but Zeke wanted otherwise.

Yes

No, we’re saying no.

You’re saying yes, or else the next time I’m out I’m telling her about your little vampire friend.

Then I guess you’re never getting out.

The full moon soon, do you really think you could hold me off?

I have Alpha blood, I think I can.

You’re not Alpha yet. Are you really willing to take that chance?

Why’re you being such an ass.

Because you’re having your fun running off with that vampire, but where’s my fun. 

“Jett? What do you say?” Ellie asked again.

I didn’t have a choice. Zeke was right, what if I couldn’t fight him off, and he told everyone about Morgan, then he’d tell them where we meet, and who knows what they’d do.

So I leaned toward Ellie and said, “Sure, the only thing is Zeke wants to take some control tonight, are you okay with that.”

She gave me a kiss on the cheek, “Ooh I’m sure Uma would love that.” Uma was her wolf.

“Okay let’s go.” I took her hand and we headed to my room.

I hadn’t slept with Ellie in a while, it was a mystery why she didn’t catch on that I didn’t want to, but then again me saying yes now, wouldn’t really help. We made it up to my bedroom, and Ellie instantly went in for a kiss. I didn’t fight it as I let Zeke take control. I was still there making sure that Zeke didn’t let anything about Morgan slip. 

I’m not going to lie and say that I didn’t like what Ellie and Uma were doing. She’d always known what she was doing. I heard her cry out, “Oh Jett. I’ve missed you.”

Something about that made me dissociate from her. I don’t know if it was because I was thinking about making sure Zeke didn’t bring up Morgan, or because I didn’t really want to be with Ellie right now, but hearing her say my name, I realized that if I wanted anyone to be saying my name it was Morgan, and I wasn’t going to get that. I would never get to hear her say my name out loud. She would always say Connor’s name. 

I wondered what my name would sound like coming from her mouth. Would it sound just as melodic as everything else that she says, or would it be better?

What would happen if she did say my name the way Ellie was. I started to let myself think about what it would be like if I got to run my hands through her hair. Because of hugging her the other night, I knew that her hair was soft. Softer than Ellies. I learned that the smell of Roses was just part of her scent. After a while that was all I could smell when I’d see her. Imagine how good it would smell to have her pressed up against me. What would it feel like to have her lips on mine? To have her touch the parts of my body that she hadn’t, and for me to touch her. I’d make sure to be gentle with her. I wouldn’t want her to feel the way her fiancé made her feel. 

Slowly I started to push Zeke away, and I started to touch Ellie wondering if Morgan would feel the same, or better. I hadn’t realized Zeke had already gotten inside Ellie, and she was still moaning my name. Zeke kept fighting me, getting upset that I was taking it away from him. So I tried to back off. I really did. I really didn’t want to be with Ellie. At that moment for whatever reason, probably just the s****l tension Ellie was causing, I wanted so much for the person I was on top of to be...

“Mmm Morgan”

I didn’t mean to say it out loud. I never wanted anyone in the pack to ever know her name. Even Connor didn’t know her name, but I just couldn’t help but let it out. 

Ellie’s eyes widened with disgust. She pushed me off her screaming, “Morgan? Who the hell is Morgan?”

You f****d it up.

I ignored Zeke and got back control. Ellie kept going off, “I don’t even know of a Morgan. Is she some low life Omega slut. Is that why you haven’t touched me in weeks? Jett how could you?”

I sighed, “It’s not like that Ellie. I haven’t slept with her.” except I just learned for some reason I really, really wanted to.

“Oh sure you want me to believe that.” She started to pick her clothes up off the floor, and put them on. “Who is she, Jett? You better tell me.”

“I can’t Ellie. It’s so hard to explain. But she's just a friend, you need to believe me.” I tried to explain.

She put on the last of her clothes and pushed me away. “Oh yeah, a friend who’s name you wanna moan instead of mine. I thought you loved me.”

I don't know what's been coming over me that’s made me be too honest, but I knew I just finally had to tell her, “But I don’t.”

Her jaw dropped, and her eyes started to water. “What the f**k do you mean. We’ve been together for 3 years and you’re barely telling me this now!”

I sighed again, and rubbed my face with my hands. “I did love you Ellie. I promise, just, lately I haven’t really been feeling it. I didn’t know how to tell you.”

“But I’m your mate. We are mates. We’ve always known that!”

I picked up my pants and started to put them on, feeling uncomfortable being naked in front of her. “I know, but what if we aren’t? We don’t know that for sure, so why’re we trying to force it?”

Her crying was slowing as she started to get more angry, “And you don’t know for sure that we’re not. Who is she Jett? That Morgan chick had to be the one to mess with your head. She’s not human is she?” She gasped, “You know an Alpha can’t be with a human, that’s ridiculous.”

If only she knew I bet she’d wish Morgan was human. I just shook my head, “No, she’s um. She’s someone from our sister pack when my dad and I went to visit. You don’t know her.” I knew I had to tell her something to get her to stop asking so many questions.

“I can’t believe you.” she spat and barged out the door. 

I was relieved that I had finally told Ellie the truth. But I also couldn’t believe that I thought about sleeping with Morgan. f**k, I said her name out loud. Was it really just s****l tension, and me not wanting to be with Ellie? Morgan was the only girl I had been talking to beside Ellie. Was that all it was? Or did I actually want to be with her?

Gale was helping tie my hair back into a tight braid. She was telling me about this vampire that she saw who she thought was cute. I know she didn’t mean to make me feel sad, but knowing that she had the opportunity to choose who she wants to be with, it hurt me. Gale’s life felt so simple compared to mine. 

“There. You look perfect.” Gale said as she stepped back to admire her work. Gale really was good at hair and makeup. I’d bet she was even the best of the whole coven. 

I turned to her, “Thank you, you’re the best.” I said. 

“I know.” she said proudly, and I couldn’t help but roll my eyes. I stood up, “Well it’s time to go.” I announced as I started to head out the door toward the conference room. My father had called a meeting. Normally I’m not allowed but because I’m getting ready to take the throne, my father insisted Xavier and I go to get the feel of things. My mother gave me one piece of advice. Stay quiet. I don’t know why I expected anything less, of course my father wouldn’t want to hear a word from me or my mother for that matter. He believed he had all the answers. 

Gale walked with me until we got to the conference doors. She smiled at me, “Good luck, I’m sure it’ll be great.”

I gave her a quick hug, and walked in. My father was seated at the head of a long table. Xavier was at his left, my mother on his right. There was an empty seat right next to Xavier. I quietly took the seat next to him, knowing that’s where I was supposed to sit. 

Xavier turned to me, “Princess.” He leaned over and gave me a kiss on my cheek. I couldn’t pull away, or act repulsed. There were too many important people that my father wouldn’t want me to embarrass him in front of. First there was the commander of the royal army. There were my fathers royal advisors, and of course at the other end of the table, one of the elders. 

The elders are one of the oldest living vampires that hold all of our history and secrets. If one of them is displeased with the way our coven is getting run, the other elders around find out, and soon there would be other covens running to end the coven that displeased the elders. 

The main reason I hated these meetings was because I had to turn up the whole faking being in love with Xavier thing. I had hated meetings before, because they usually bored me, because my father wouldn't care about any of my opinions, but now with Xavier, everything was just so much worse. 

We waited till the last of the chairs filled up, and then my father stood up. “Thank you all for coming. I have great news. Our soldier, Elijah, recently came back from intruding a werewolf pack in the next state over. As you all know he couldn’t infiltrate the Crimson River pack, because of our ongoing treaty. But once we hand over the reigns of the coven to Xavier, then we have the option of not renewing the treaty. Therefore I wanted to get as much information on the pack as possible. Well, Elijah was able to tell us that the current Alpha is also handing over the ropes to his son, Jett, in a month. So in a month the new Alpha of the pack, along with his Beta Connor, will be coming over to meet with Xavier.”

The entire time I tried not to make eye contact with my father, but as soon as I heard the name Connor, my eyes shot toward him. He couldn’t possibly be talking about my Connor right?
