Luna of the Golden Moon

a dead dynasty

“Cay, what do you think about Beta Brad?” I was already in the office when I talked via the link and sat by my armchair and checked different construction companies for myself, we could have separate houses, we had space on the properties, they were huge, why had no one taken care of this before me, it was an obvious solution, to have the pack closer together, at least the ones that wanted to be here and not in the human city where I was brought up.

“He seems like a good fighter, strong and determined…. why are you asking Mila?” He sounded suspicious when I smiled to myself and a delta knocked on the door and came in with water and biscuits, I smiled gratefully and thanked Delta Vivian quickly on the side before continuing my conversation with Caleb.

“He was the first beta for alpha Victor, we have none, maybe it would be a chance to finally get a new one, he has experience, he seems to be loyal to us already, and he has something to lose…” I meant Kate and he seemed to be thinking on the other side of what I had said when I ate biscuits contentedly and drank water quickly, I really loved these biscuits nowadays.

“I have thought about it, I wanted to know more about him before I make such a decision.” I understood that and looked at more companies that could build several houses for us and swiped my finger on the iPad when I looked out the window in the garden and saw them together, Brad and Kate, they looked sweet together… I smiled stupidly at them and looked down at the screen again, the bond was strong between them already.

“So was ours Luna.” He said it like I did not know and sighed, I was there, I know how strong it is baby, we have overcome more than most who have the bond can stand.

“We can do anything, Mila, there is nothing we can’t do together.” I smiled at his quirky answer, but it was true, we could do it all together.

“Are you out on the training area?” I drank water when I already knew he was because I had already known Mark and Tony that we stood at the door, those poor guys.

“They know their duty Luna, I'm not taking any chances with the crazy bastard out there who's just waiting to take you.” he was angry now and I looked up from the screen again, he really was, and I was afraid he would succeed, I would fight but Kyle was smart, he would make sure I had no choice, I just knew it.

“he's going to die, that's the only thing that will happen to Luna.” I heard the growl now and knew he was in wolf form now, too angry to be human and I just answered easily now.

“Yes alpha, he will die.” That was enough. In wolf form we were easier, did not have to say so many words, we already knew through our instincts that led us then.

I closed the link when I knew he would not answer more than yes and no now and looked at all the companies, there were three that I should contact, see their quotes, this was a big job so it was a lot of money but honestly , I was the Luna and it was my pack's money from the beginning that they lived on, the one that Caleb's grandfather had slaughtered so I had no bad conscience at all.

Funny who the money that his family hade stolen from mine was back in my control, or partially, I still wouldn’t make a decision without my mate, but I knew that he would se reason, he was that kind of man after all, and me? I was just as boring these days, but I didn’t mind, I was free and happy, no matter what people believed or whispered about.

I still missed Kyle, I did, I missed him as the first Beta, my friend and not the crazy lunatic he turned out to be hiding in plains sight….just wished that it wasn’t all about power but it was, he wanted to be the biggest Alpha out there, a king, and he wanted me to follow him, still believing that he had the right to command me, when it was the other way around, I was the one hiding in plain sight too, but I didn’t want what Kyle wanted, I just wanted to be happy and Calebs Luna, no matter how silly it sounded to people who knew the truth about my legacy, but I didn’t care, the Silvers where slaughtered, a dead dynasty and I was still Emelia Jackson, an Delta in my heart, not some obscure princess people seemed to kill to get a hold off.

I got goosebumps from my own thoughts and started to shake from my own fears, and no Caleb to cut them off since he was running and I had closed him off, no, I was happy here, and if Kyle got to me, I would kill him, somehow, I would, if he didn’t see reason and stopped this madness.

The baby kicking me brought me back and I looked out the window holding my hand over my belly, I had something to loose to, so much more than I ever would have thought when I meet Caleb, I needed to be smart and plan, just as my rivals was, not just trust that Caleb saved me, he had his own problems, and I was meant to help him, not be another burden to his already overloaded responsibility’s on his shoulders.

Only time would tell what would happen… and I prayed that it would be in me and my mates favor…
