My Miracle Luna

CHAPTER TWENTY-THREE

Craig's POV

The rage I felt from Lewey's betrayal was like a hot furnace burning through my chest. "He is lost to us now. Their is no turning back from the lives that he has taken" Tobias tells me. I silently agree with my wolf. I look to my father and his face is pained. "Is there anything you need me to do?" Logan asks me. "No, I will take care of it. Thank you. Why don't you go back to the pack house and get a few hours of sleep and spend time with your mate." I tell him when he gives me a nod and immediately shifts back and runs towards the pack house. I look around and notice my father crouched by one of the fallen warriors and I go to stand next to him. I look at the warrior and his jaw was torn in half. "As Alpha, it's my job to notify the families." I say with a solemn voice. My father looks to me as he stands up and he puts a hand on my shoulder. "I will do this with you. You don't have to do this alone." he tells me. I just nod not trusting my voice. "I will organize a clean up and we will have a proper burial for these men". he tells me. "Dad ...." I pause trying to find my words when he looks at me silently waiting. I look away, then back at him. "I have no Beta, and no Gamma. Until I find one that is suitable for the position. Will you do me the honor of being my stand in Beta?" I ask him when he smiles broadly. "I may be old, but I won't let you down son." he tells me.

We make the walk back towards the center of the pack silently while im trying to gather my thoughts. Lewey has betrayed our pack and joined forces with Alpha Romero that much is clear. There's no doubt in my mind that we have a war brewing. On top of that, my sister is in a coma along with her mate, whom she doesn't recognize. All because f*****g Alpha Romero wanted her. f**k! I was so consumed on Lewey that Romero got away. "Ryker isn't going to be happy about that". Tobias tells me. "Thank you for pointing out the obvious". I retort back. "Oh, and don't forget the prophecy" Tobias adds in. That's right another thing on my plate. I have to decipher a children's story to figure out the prophecy that my sister just happens to be apart of.

Logan's POV

I make my way to my mates house. My thoughts are still clouded with the events of this morning and last night. My best friend is laying in a coma, that I don't even understand along with some prophecy. Alpha Romero got away. Ryker isn't going to be happy about that, and also Craig's little brother just left the pack. "That boy fell on his head one too many times." Atlas tells me. "Yeah no kidding, whose even brave enough to kill their mate, who cares if she was omega. He should have been happy he found her?" I tell him with just the thought of even hurting my Liz my heart constricts in pain. So I run quicker when her house comes into view and I quickly shift back and knock on her door. "What if she is asleep?" Atlas whines in my head, wanting to see her just as bad as I when the door opens and her father is standing in the doorway. He looks me up and down and I realize I'm naked. I cough and quickly covered my manhood with my hands. "Good morning sir" I say when he raises his eyebrow at me and shakes his head then turns around and motions me inside.

Once inside I close the door and when I turn back around her father is handing me a pair of basketball shorts. "Wait here, I will get you a shirt" he tells me. When I hear the voice of my angel. "Dad, who's at the door?" when she comes around the corner and my eyes instantly find hers. "Hi" I say. "Really? Just hi? That's all you got to say?" Atlas says giving me s**t.

I just shake him from my thoughts and see that her eyes are trailing my abs and they stop at my V-line. Atlas purring at our mates actions when I cough to get her attention and her Cheeks instantly turn red with her beautiful honey colored eyes staring back at me. "Good morning" She says to me when her father comes back to the back hallway and hands me a shirt. I didnt even notice he walked away. "Thank you sir" I say when he just grunts at me as I put the shirt on and I follow them to the kitchen and my mate goes to the refrigerator and starts pulling out eggs, bacon, sausage, and orange juice. While her father and I sat at the bar. "So what made you want to take a run then show up here naked?" my mate asks with a giggle. "She has the voice of an angel" Atlas says. I couldn't agree more when her father pounds the bar with his fist and abruptly stands up with the barstool falling to the floor. I look at him shocked, wondering if it's what Liz said when I noticed he is mindlinking. I immediately stand up and get in a protective stance around my mate. Atlas on edge, listening to our surroundings making sure there is no danger when her father roars out. "I'M GOING TO f*****g KILL HIM WHEN I FIND HIM!" I stand shocked but at the ready when Liz speaks up. "Find who dad?" she asks with worry in her voice. "f*****g LEWEY!!!" he snaps and goes to walk out the door when he turns back and looks at me and I see that his wolf is forward with him. "Don't leave her side" and with that runs out the back door. I turn back to look at my mate and see she is shaking in terror. Her breathing is harsh. "Baby, it's okay I'm right here" I tell her while rubbing her arms trying to console her, when she goes limp in my arms. Atlas whinning for our mate. So I pick her up bridal style and carry her out the kitchen and up the stairs to her bedroom on the right. As I'm laying her down in her bed Atlas spoke up "I bet he is the one who hurt our mate" he says growling out when it all makes sense and I'm instantly angered that he got away. "We will make him pay for hurting what is ours. I'll kill him!" I tell him angrily. When she starts whimpering and I crawl in bed beside her and just hold her close when she turns and snuggles into me shoving her face into my neck. With Atlas purring at our mates actions.
