The Disgraced Luna Queen

Chapter 3: Her Alpha and Heirs

Finnicks POV

A pair of cerulean eyes, so beautiful, sharp and intelligent filled with tears begging no pleading for me to listen haunt my dreams, especially after a session with my current lover. Her eyes never fail to creep into my dreams, her beautiful face in pain with the slap I gave her after finding my parents dead. I try to reach out to stroke her face but the closer I get the farther her face appears from me. Mira my mate, my previous Luna, mother to my children and my best friend haunts me to this day. Since she escaped from the dungeons 4 years ago I have searched for her far and wide unable to bring her home and get justice for my parents.

But my wolf Osiris insisted it was not her and her wolf reign. He said he looked into Reigns memories but could find not a thing. Just darkness filled with confusion and pain. I would not listen to him, fueled by anger and pain I was adamant she killed them but then a clue appeared almost 6 months later that she was innocent.

We found traces of a different wolfs fur in my mothers wound. The bite marks on my parents bodies were too wide for Reigns small snout. The blood in their claws was not Mira’s.

The autopsy report detailed it all. It was not Mira, my heart constricted as I read the report. She was innocent, but I said she was guilty before I had evidence. Osiris was angry at me. He refused to talk to me for

Months after. He refused to shift as I was the cause of his matés disappearance.

I utilized all resources available but i could not find anyone under Mira Andrews or Mira Edwards. Her money had been pulled out the day she escaped. Her accounts closed. She had help to escape but by who I never could find out.

The twins became distraught and then angry with me. Noah more so than Naomi. Noah because he yelled hurtful things and renounced his relationship with his mother.

Naomi told me that Mira looked confused and was begging us to listen before Noah dragged her away to the bunkers. My children withdrew and tried to help with finding her. Their resentment grew and we became distant with each other.

The Rouges we captured would not spill anything despite the months of torture. The only thing we got out of them was that a war was coming and our only chance of winning and surviving was gone. They taunted and laughed at us. When Mira was mentioned about her involvement they laughed and snickered before saying they couldn’t believe I fell for something so basic as a letter over my wife and mate of 13 years.

Now 4 years later my children were turning 17 and as custom a mating ball was to be held. What should be a joyous occasion was instead another day without Mira to celebrate with…Naomi should be dress shopping with her mother and having a spa day and instead she’s locked in her room with her books. Noah should be having a tux fitting with me but he can barely stand to be in the same room as I.

I heaved a big sigh as I thought about our family when Ava began to kiss me and snuggle.

I pushed her away as she knew the rules. This arrangement was only for my release, meaningless and she had to leave right after.

There was no snuggles and no staying the night. I knew she wanted more but I couldn’t offer her more. My heart belonged to Mira, sure it’s been 4 years but I couldn’t help but think one day she’d return. I mean I know I hurt the bond by sleeping with another but after a year celibacy is hard to maintain.

“Seriously Finn. Why can’t I stay? Why do you push me away? Don’t you care for me at all.”. She yelled at me while jumping off the bed.

“Do not start Ava. I have told you before this is just a simple arrangement. I told you to not develop any feelings or anything for me as I couldn’t offer you anything else.”

She rolled her eyes and said “It’s been 4 years Finn. She is not coming back she has abandoned you all. She is No Luna. What Luna runs awa-“ I grabbed her by her throat and lifted her up.

I put her at my eye level and whispered menacingly “Do not insult my mate. Do not speak on matters that you do not have all the facts about. Next time i will not be so forgiving. I will kill you…as a matter of fact. This arrangement is over. Do not seek me out. Now get out before i kill you.” And then I released her and watched as she scrambled to get out of the room.

I watched as she almost ran into my Beta Lucian on her way out. He simply looked at me with amusement and c****d an eyebrow up.

“What is it Lucian? I don’t have time for your jokes.”

He snorted before saying “ I can tell, too busy running off the latest she wolf. I’m telling you man one day it’s going to bite you in the ass. These she wolfs are crazy and will do anything to fill your nights and days as your mate and Luna. But regardless I’ve come to tell you that we have received all RSVPs from the neighboring packs and accommodations have been made for those needing rooms. The rest will stay in the hotel or travel back home if they do not find their mates.”

“Thank you Lucian, I am hoping that since my children are alpha born they will find their mates right away. Since they can only mate with a beta or an alpha born child, it Shouldn’t be too hard. But I really want Naomi to find a mate that can bring her out of her shell and Noah’s so he can finally Learn to love again.” I sighed.

Lucian nodded and said “ I know my friend I am hoping Jonah finds his mate as well. Jazlynn wants it to be Naomi. As Jonah says he is in love with her. But he said he doesn’t feel any different to her, like there is no pull. But he’s adamant it’s her.”

Naomi was beautiful like her mother, she had her eyes, her beautiful long black hair with a streak of silver in the front, her gracefulness and intelligence. She was slender and tall but while she resembled her mother in looks her personality was that of mine. She observed, assessed, was strong willed. She was clever, tactical and one hell of a fighter. She spent her time in the library or on the training field fighting.

And then came Noah, he too had the beautiful black hair but his eyes were silvery grey. My eyes. He was tall and lean with muscles in the right places. He was the opposite of Naomi in personality. He was stubborn, outspoken, opinionated quick to rise to anger but he was also Intelligent and kind. He was like Mira. Never one to shy away from his thoughts and vocalizing them. He was a great fighter and an even more amazing leader. He was the social one between the two.

Shaking my head as I thought of my twins, I looked at Lucian “ Naomi has not mentioned anything yet but then again it’s not a subject I am sure she is comfortable with, but I will inquire. As Jonah is the future beta it’s highly possible.”

Lucian nodded but before he could say anything else we got a mind link from the borders with urgency ringing.

“What is it?” I gruffly asked.

“Alpha you need to come quick. It’s..it’s..”

He stuttered.

“Who is it boy? Speak quickly.”

“It’s the Luna, I mean the previous Luna. I mean it’s your wife..she’s here demanding entrance.”he squeaked.

Lucian looked up at me and we both took off and I could feel Osiris stirring in the back

Of my mind. Excitement running in his mind.

“Hold on buddy. We don’t know if it’s them yet. Stay calm.” I thought to him.

“It’s mate, I can feel her. I can hear her heartbeat. It’s her. Shift human shift.” He excitedly yelled.
