Syline
I waited around the field. Watching all our trainees. They’re all in need of more lessons. They look like children just running around. It is like they’re not even trying to learn. But they will learn when it costs them the life of a love one. Or their own.
“How are they in their wolf forms?” I ask a warrior.
“Better but if their human forms don’t improve. Who’s to say what will happen if they’re push to movement.” I sigh loudly. Knowing these kids have not improve in the years. We need them to improve sooner! They should be better by now.
“Get them with the others and do better! They’re all going to end up dead. Like the others.” I hissed.
“Luna. The parents of the pups are worried. Are you sure you don’t want us to inform them yet?” The warrior asked.
It has only been a day. They haven’t return. Which means, all the warriors I had assign to the Black Harvest are dead. Or capture for questioning. But I haven’t heard anything from Travis so i’m not quite sure.
Its’s a waiting game. “Give it time. We are not sure of their status yet.” I inform him.
“Should we look for them.” I scowl at him for questioning me. “They are only pups.”
I grabbed his throat tightly. “We wait! If they’re alive, they will make their way back soon. Other wise they’re rogues to be killed. If not! Then they’re dead either way.” Letting go as he gasped for air.
“Yes Luna.” He said.
This is why I hate to have men under me. f*****g weak little boys in suits. I’d been trying to train some girls under me to give us more power. Not many has shown ambition. But there’s a few I took under my wing. They are perfect for my next plan.
“Now if anyone ask you about the warriors. What do you say?”
The warrior stood tall trying to think fast. “We’re waiting on their post.” I smile proudly.
A little showed of power and the dog learns well. “Good, very good.” Tapping his cheeks lightly. “I need you to double the groups. Train longer and better. I want improvement in a week.” Holding my smile high.
“Yes Luna. I’ll get on it right away.” He said.
I walk off heading to my next group to check in. My girls. I have them train separately. I don’t want the boys to corrupt my work. Beside my girls would of made it back from the assignment by now. “Can’t send a boy to do a woman’s job.” I tell myself.
Making it to the gym I see the girls training hard. I walk around the room and I couldn’t be more than proud of them. They’re excellent. I might have them teach the boys a thing or two next week. I watch all my girls around the room training carefully. They look stronger than before. Bigger than the boys. It made me happy to see this group grow bigger and bigger.
I need a stronger pack. And I need them yesterday.
I watch as two of my stars, fight in the ring. They had minimum cuts on each other, and even their breathing match a good heaviness. They still held their weight against their opponent. They can take down a grown wolf quick.
“How long?” I ask a warrior that was picked wisely to train my girls.
“3 round. 14 mins in.” He was my Beta and my mate’s best friend. He was also our top warrior here. He was the best to train them.
“That’s good. What’s your status for today?” I asked.
He turns to talk to another warrior and walks me to the office. I figure it was something important if he needed to talk privately with me.
“Can I get you anything?” He locks the door and closed the dark blinds.
“The girls status Beta. How are the girls?” I asked again.
“Now, now my Aster. I thought I told you to call me by my direct name when we’re in private.” Removing his sweaty wraps from his hands. He has been practicing with some of the girls. I see his knuckles red.
I stare at his sweaty, muscular body. It calls to me but I won’t fold yet. “Lucas? How are my girls doing? I have something in plan coming up and I want to know if the girls will be up for it.”
He removes his shirt and walks around his desk. Leaning against it, making me crave his touch. “The girls huh?”
He taunts me. Knowing I can’t withhold for long. “Yes Beta. The girls? Why do you think I came down here for? To play chess?” I chuckle.
He scans my body and I get hot quick. “Maybe something else? It has been a while Syline. You been avoiding me, why?” He said, looking sexy staring me down.
“Don’t you forget who you’re talking to!” He strives towards me. “I’m your Luna. I have many things to do. I’m constantly busy! I have no time to entertain you!” I said, making the last few space between us.
“Have you forgotten that i’m not just your Beta.”
I huff loud and looked away. He grabs my face and force me to look at him. “Have you forgotten my Aster?”
I stare in his eyes. And his wolf stares me down. “Of course not.” I said.
He drive my hip toward him. And I bite my inner cheek. “Then what’s this I hear about you having visitors in your room?”
I pull away from him. Quickly getting annoyed. “It’s none of your business.”
Walking around his office to distract me from him. I can’t look in his eyes at the moment. “Why have them when you know you can just call us? Do we not mean anything to you girls anymore?” I stop by his desk and ignore him. He was my husband’s best friend. And after he died, it was him who stayed by my side. He was the one who took charge of the pack when I couldn’t. And pathetic me fell in love with him, again.
“Beta.” I said softly.
“Lucas.” He said.
“Beta.” I repeat.
“Lucas, my Aster.” I hear a smirk in his tone.
“Enough of your games. I only came here to discuss my girls. And if you have nothing to report at this moment then fine. I’ll come back later then!” I sat down at his chair, swing it around.
I hear his footsteps and he swung the chair towards him. Gripping the arms. “Answer two questions, my Aster.” I rolled my eyes and he chuckled at me. “Just two.” He said.
I lean my head back waiting for his questions. “Why have you been avoiding me?” I tried turning the chair but he grip it harder. “Look into my eyes and tell me the truth. Because I can’t stand being so distance from you anymore. It’s been months, and you’ve been looking so f*****g good. I can’t attain myself anymore.” I feel his arousal and it made me hot.
“The truth?” He nods. “Because you’re my Beta. And I’m your Luna. Our affair is wrong, even if all I want is you. It is wrong. That’s why I’d been avoiding you. I can’t keep my hands off of you Lucas. And neither can my wolf.” He leans in and I feel his hot breath on my skin. I dread for his touch. Staying away from him was harder than being Luna.
“Do you want us?” My eyes widen a little. Thinking what to say. “Now and forever my Aster. If not? Then this here.” Looking me up and down. “This ends now. We keep it profession. And the feelings will fade one day. Because they were never there. So tell me the truth and only the truth baby.”
Caressing my lips. “Do. You. Want. Us?” He asked again.
I shut everything down and just answered. Not caring what will happen afterwards.
“Yes.” I swallow hard.
“I knew it.” He smirk.
Throwing his lips on to ours. And our bodies melted together. It has been so long, I crave every inch of him. More than I did my mate. I didn’t feel ashamed for it either.
Getting up slightly, I toss everything off his desk. He lift me high in the air, clawing into my dress. “Don’t go soft on me Lucas.” I whispered. He knows I like it rough. More than ever when he takes his time. Only for him, I like hours under his sheets.
“Never my Aster.” Biting my bottom lips.
He spreads my legs open, making my dress rise high. Taking no time, he moves my panties to the side. And with three fingers he enters my wet p***y. Growling at his touch. “She misses me too.”
I moan in the high pleasure. “Yes Lucas.” It’s been so long since we touch each other. Our bodies knew each mark so well.
“Ahh f**k! Aster!” He moans.
Flicking his fingers in, I coat them enough for his member. Craving him fully. “Put him in now. Don’t make me wait.” I beg.
Pulling his fingers out he licks my wetness. “Mmhh, better than ever my Aster.”
Climbing on top, his member slams inside my folds. Making my p***y clench around him. “Ahh yes Aster. Just like that.” He moans.
He thrust into me hard and slow. “You girls know how we like it.” He said. Enjoying the wetness I savor for him. “Did you miss us?” Thrusting in me.
“Yes.” I moan.
“Do you crave us?” Thrust.
“Yes.” Again thrust.
“Do you love us?”
No hesitation I repeated, “yes. Now f**k me harder!” I plead.
“Say it Syline. I want to hear it from those lips itself. Those lips that loves to suck on my c**k. Only mine c**k. No one else.”
Throwing my head back, trying to hold onto the desk. “I love you Lucas.” And he thrust deeper in my hole. Opening me more for all of him.
“I love you Syline. Only you, it has always, only been you.” I clench harder, getting more wet from his thrust. “c*m for me baby. Cum.” He demands.
But I wanted something in return. I admitted my love for him. And I want something too. “You first.” Knowing he can ride out his for mine.
He growl and diggs his claws into me. Bringing his mouth to my ear. “At the same time baby. Mix our c*m together like old times.” He whispers.
“Yes Lucas.”
He licks my neck as he pushes down on me, thrusting harder and harder. Thrusting in me until we both climax, meeting with matching breath. My legs pressing his body more in, allowing him to empty all his seed inside.
“Ahh fuck.” I moan in high to low cords.
He kisses me before climbing off. Pulling his pant back up. I fix myself and got off his desk. “You don’t have to hide anymore baby.”
I said nothing and pick up a few things. “How are the girls?” Returning back to my question.
“They are doing perfect. They’re ready for whatever you have plan.” He hover over me making me sweat.
“Move, I got enough sweat from you.” He growls and pulls me in. Kissing our neck with his canines sliding down. “Lucas stop.”
He glares at me. And I can tell he’s unhappy. “Don’t start again Syline. Not this time. Not again.” He said.
I turn and sigh loudly. I hated saying it but it’s true. “We need to stop Lucas. It’s not right.”
He grabs my ass. Bringing me close to him. I was still weak for his touch. “You know that’s not true.” I don’t know. “We should just mark each other. Be out in the open. You can be mine again and I’ll be yours. Alpha and Luna.” I push him away.
I didn’t want this conversation again. “Why would you say that!” I shouted.
“Because you know it’s the right thing to do. We love each other and you can’t keep holding on to the past. We need an Alpha. We all need to move forward.”
I slap him. “Syline.” I went to slap him again but he grabbed my hand, throwing it to the side.
Flaring my wolf’s eyes at him. He flares his back. “Devin will be Alpha.”
Lucas laugh. “You know that boy is not ready.” He said.
“He will one day. So Lucas, please.” Closing our space. My act drops. “Just wait some more. And then we can be together.”
He holds me tight. I miss being in his arms. “I have been waiting long enough. I can’t promise anything anymore.” I frown at him. And his eyes looks deep in me. It burns.
“If you’re going to leave. Then leave. I’ll find another Beta quick. Someone better, someone who won’t let their feelings get in the way!”
He kisses me, leaving his taste inside my mouth. My body crave for more. I tug on his pant, rubbing his still hard member. “Syline we have spent nearly a century under each other. And it all stopped when you met him.” He started.
“I met my mate. What did you expect to happen?” I asked, but I knew the answer.
“Those feelings never went away for either of us. Just on hold. And now we get the chance to be together again. Don’t make me wait anymore.” I don’t want to but I have to.
“I met my mate Lucas. I couldn’t just runaway with you again. He was my mate.” I said, gripping for his touch.
“It was suppose to be me. Not my brother! Me!” His eyes frown and I caress his jaw with both hands. I don’t want his past to fall back. Not when it was my fault.
“We both wanted it to be. Even he knew. But the Goddess picked Adam for me. And I accepted.”
He let go of me slowly. I had no right to have these feeling. “Yeah but then you distance yourself and had an affair with another Alpha and then had his pup.” I gasped.
I couldn’t believe he brought that up. Only he knew, I never told Adam, truthfully. He would of killed me for getting pregnant from someone else heir.
“It should of been me. Not Adam and not that Alpha you said you loved. Just me. My pups! Our pack!” I step away from him. He wasn’t thinking clearly. Our lovely lust ate him up.
“This is over. I’ll inform you with the girls new schedule.”
Walking away he pulls me back. “Just don’t push us away. No more visitors. Just us for now.” I see he’s wanting something. His words meant a plead to us.
I just don’t know if I can give it to him. Not now at least. “Thank you for your time Lucas.” Giving him a kiss before leaving. I hope it smooth his thoughts. Cause for me, it did nothing but mess with my soul once again.
I needed to figurer my s**t out first. I can’t do this anymore. “I need to find a way to get Devin ready for being Alpha soon.” I thought to myself.
There was only two ways, I was comfortable with leaving this pack with him. When he’s mated off. Or has proven he is Alpha material. And he is neither. “Ugh, I’m going to lose Lucas because of Devin.” My greatest mistake. I love him but I expected more.
“If Lucas really loves me. He will stay regardless. He always promised to never leave us.” But this time, it felt different. Like he really would leave. I hope not, I can’t lose another love of my life. Not another.
“I worry for the worst this time.”
“Not after everything we been through. He wouldn’t just throw it all away.” My wolf says. I sigh deeply to myself. Remembering the time everything change forever for us.

“I’m sorry Lucas. I’m so sorry. It’s all my fault.” I sob.
“No baby. Don’t say that. It was no ones fault. Sometimes this happens.” He grips my hand. And I tighten for comfort.
“It’s my fault we lost the baby.” Clenching the cramping pain that grew more and more.
“As long as you’re okay. That’s what matters.” He coos.
“But the baby. Your were so excited and now.. now..” Unable to say the words. “Aahh.” I pull my knees in. Feeling the cramping pain intensify. Feeling my heart drop. Everything is passing through me as we drive.
His fingers lays on my knees. Rubbing circles around. “It’s okay baby. I’ll run a hot shower for us. I’ll clean the mess and we can enjoy our getaway.” I sob in the corner of the car. Hating this feeling I endure.
God damn I mess up everything. How can he still love me after this. I don’t deserve him. He should leave. This is his chance to leave. Start fresh even.
Lucas and I met way back. Traveling around the world. We were just friends to begin with then we started sleeping together. It was something new with Lucas. It felt nice and homey, it felt like true, true love. People would ask if were mates all the time. Because of our connection together. After a while we said yes. We had talked about just marking each other and living a happy life. He can take over his father’s pack. Or even start a new one for us.
Things were great for so long. And then I got pregnant. He was so excited to be a dad. And with him, I was glad he was by my side. Anyone else, I would never want to be a mom. But for him, for Lucas. I wanted everything.
Then one day, I had this sharp pain. Went to the doctor and they told us about the miscarriage. The look on Lucas’s face broke me. It broke him, losing his pup. It was hard to hear everything. Feeling the cramps and knowing what’s happening. I couldn’t be home. Not with all the baby stuffs around the house. So Lucas suggested we leave. Runaway to his home town. Staying at his father’s pack for bit. Then go anywhere in world. I agree for the means time. Knowing this would be my first time meeting his family. Little did I know, meeting them will mean something else.
Once we got there, the pain started to ease a bit more. But having Lucas with me made this sad memory go by well. “Luna, Alpha. This is Syline.” Introducing me to his parents. They were very intimidating.
“It’s very nice to finally meet you. Lucas has told us so much about you.” I blushed and Lucas gave my hand a squeeze.
“I will put our stuff away.” I grab his hand. Not wanting to be alone. “I won’t be long.” He kisses my cheek and left me alone.
His parents won’t that scary once we started talking. They were very nice people. We got along quite fast. And then an odd new enchanting scent enter the room.
“Where’s that son of bi…” Stomping into the room. Our eyes met and never looked away. He floated towards me. “I thought I’ll never find you?” He said, not even acknowledging his parents.
“Mate?” It was all I can say.
He lift my hand and kissed it. Sending unbelievable feelings to my body. We got so into the moment, we didn’t know Lucas enter the room. “What’s going on?” He asked.
His parent clapped in awes “Oh sweetie isn’t it great news? Syline is Adam’s mate.” Everyone was happy but Lucas. He hid his broken heart. But I can tell from his eyes.
We always thought if we waited long enough. The Goddess will see how perfect we are together and make us mate. If not? Then we will mark each other either way. But now, that option was gone. Everything is gone for us.
“Well, I guess I’ll just move her stuff to Adam’s room? Unless Syline thinks it’s too soon?” Everyone looked at us. And I know Lucas wanted me to stay with him. I know what conversation he wanted to have.
Adam walked over my view of Lucas’s pain. “Why don’t we walk the fields for a talk. We don’t have to make any life changing decision yet. Not until you’re ready.” It was the perfect thing he could of said.
“That sound nice.” I heard mutters behind us and Adam took me to walk through the fields. It was very nice. We talked for hours and learn so much about each other. And when I got my awful cramps, they seem less painful around Adam. It was like they were never there.
There that night, I felt too sick with everything. The baby, Adam, Lucas, life! I didn’t know what to do. So I excuse myself to a separated room.
Knock knock.
“May I come in dear?” I looked up to see Luna.
I wanted to be left alone but I can’t afford to be rude. I sat up right and tried to be civil. “I know this is a hard decision to make. And with everything you’re going through. It’s just life dear.” I looked at her confuse. “Lucas tells me everything.” She said.
“So everyone knows! Even Adam!” Hiding my shame with a pillow.
“No dear.” Placing a hand on my shoulder. “Only I know. Lucas made me promise to say nothing. But I know he does love you. And you love him too.” I felt embarrassed. “Whatever you choose to do. Do it for you. They would understand.”
I thought through my choices all night. Not sure what to do. I even thought of packing my things and just leaving. But I know both Lucas and Adam would look for me and then I’ll have to have this talk with them. So I sucked it up and just made a choice.
Soon after a while, Adam and I begin the mate process. We marked, we married. And soon after that. Adam took over as Alpha and held my Luna ceremony afterwards. It was hard to have Lucas watch everything from the side. He said he was happy for us both but I knew deep down he wish this wasn’t happening. Wishing it was him and not his brother.
Adam and I tried getting pregnant for so long. But never got the plus sign. “Don’t worry baby. If we’re not meant to have a child. I’m fine with spoiling just you.” He said.
“But you’re an Alpha Adam. You need a heir. What good am I if I can’t give you one.” Sobbing for my one failure as a mate and Luna.
“You are still the Syline I met. I love you baby.” He was kind and I love him deeply.
“Lucas will mate soon. And he will have pups. When we’re ready, we can pass it down to his first heir.” The idea seem perfect in anyone eyes. But to me, it hurt to imagine Lucas with someone else. Just watching him all this time while i’m his Luna was hard enough.
Later on things calm down. And Adam was running off to meetings after meetings. Leaving me home alone. So one day I took off. And that’s when I met Fransisco. He was charming to begin with. I was unaware of him being an Alpha until later after our affair. I soon fell in love with him. Fransisco gave me all the desire Adam couldn’t. It felt like I was with Lucas but just not with him.
Adam of course confronted me about it. After feeling the daily routine of betrayal. I ask him why he waited so long to ask. “Because when you return home. You seem so happy. I know I haven’t been the best mate. So if another man makes you happy for the means times. Then so be it. You are still my mate. And I’ll still be loyal to you. I love you Syline.”
Everything was good until my affair lasted longer than he thought. We started fighting over it. And he still stayed loyal no matter what.
Then I got pregnant. And it was Fransisco’s. “I don’t know what i’m going to do? Adam is going to kill me. The baby? He’s going to kill Fransisco because of this.” Lucas held me in his arms. Combing my hair to calm me down.
“Don’t tell him.” He said.
“I can’t lie. He would know Lucas!” He cupped my face and stared into my watery eyes.
“Stop the affair and wait. Let Adam believe the baby is his. He won’t question it if you distant yourself from Fransisco, right now.” And Lucas was so right.
I told Fransisco about the baby and he left me. So distancing myself from him was easy. And Adam believed the baby was his. But sometimes I believe Adam knew Devin wasn’t his real son. We just never talked about it. Adam stayed and raise Devin. Adam grew more angry over the years. Because Devin wasn’t into the heir thing. Devin admitted at a young age that he didn’t want to be an Alpha. Which made Adam mad.
I started my affair with Fransisco again not long after Adam had died. It was a hero act. And then Fransisco left me again and got himself killed over his i***t, worthless mate Ana. Fransisco made promises to me after her death. And he never lived up to them. After all his lies and betrayals I thought Travis will be my key to getting what was rightfully mine. But he was just as stubborn as his father.
I thought Travis will be more willing since I was so good to him growing up. I was basically his mother. But no! I have to fight my way to just talk to him about it. And I can’t even go to the God damn meeting. After learning this, everything from Fransisco’s funeral Lucas tried to convince me to let it go. To just move on.
“He’s gone Syline. You don’t need to prove anything anymore.” Laying under the sheets naked.
“It’s not about proving anything Lucas. It’s about getting what I was promised. That’s all I want. It is what Devin deserves after his father left him. He never even seen Devin more than a few times in his life.” I yelled. Pacing around the room.
“Aster? Come back to bed. Let me help you forget about all the men who fail you. Because you know i’m the only one who would never.” I crawl back into bed.
Lucas makes me saddle him with his hard member beneath me. “It just pisses me off.” He rocks my hips.
“Whatever you want to do my Aster. You make the call. I’ll just stand beside you. Like always.” It hurt to hear him say it. But it’s true. Lucas was the one man I love madly. And never left me, he always stayed. Even if I fell in love with another, he stayed.
“I love you Lucas.” Admiring my body.
“I have always love you Syline. Always.”
**
And now after years and years of waiting. Lucas was getting impatient. I understand why. And I would give anything to keep him here. I just need this last thing, that’s all. And then me and Lucas can have our way. Like it should of been. It will all fall into place once I get Black Harvest. That the least I deserve after what I went through.
