Blood of the Silver Moon

The Aftermath

"Well, well, the alpha picking an omega over his fiance, that has to sting lovely." The man leaned into my ear while he waited for Lukas to make the transfer. I looked at a worried James behind him with eyes that said, it's okay, though he didn't seem so sure. Lukas' eyes still burned every now and again when he looked up to see his hands on me. I nodded to Rose and he leaned over, putting hands on her shoulder and a gun to her temple. Rose screamed and the kidnapper yelled over her. "Time's ticking Alpha! Where is my money?"

"Here! Here! Let her go!" He stepped forward holding up his phone to show the transfer was complete, and the men in his service moved forward to protect him. Lukas growled low, but the kidnapped stepped back, nodding for her to be released. They untied her and she ran for Lukas sobbing, and clinging to him like a pathetic, weak w*ore.

"Get out of here. You don't want to see what happens next." He stepped in front of me, his voice dark with a hint of malice behind it. When Lukas and James took a step forward two massive wolves stepped in his way, ears back in warning. They ran out of the building and I waited for the car doors to close before I dropped the ropes, the act and stood up. Then I grabbed my phone and made the next transfer.

"Good job boys. Here is my number, call me when you're ready to no longer be rouges." Just as I stepped around him James burst in screaming for them to get off me. We both stood stunned, and the men behind me were tense. "It's okay James. It was all part of the ruse, but now you can help me. Good bye boys." The rouges ran off and I walked to James perfectly fine.

"What happened?" James met me in the middle and I smiled at him.

"I have more money than god, let's go. We need to look like I got beat up." I walked outside and his car was still running. Slipping in we drove to a human side of town grabbing items we needed for fx makeup. With some work we made it look like I was clawed up, bite, beaten and more. By the time we were done, no one would know it was make up. I even made it smell like real blood. James drove carefully until we were almost to the house, then he drove like a bat out of hell. Several men ran out as he slammed his door, eyes wide when they saw me falling into his arms out of the car. I deserved a reward for my acting. Lukas was halfway down the stairs when I game in hanging off James' body. He kept me up while I limped, cried and held my stomach. He rushed down the rest of the steps but I flinched from his touch.

"Amara, baby, I am so sorry." Lukas reached for me, but his hand fell half way to me. "You have to understand, you're stronger than Rose, I knew you would life. What did you want me to do?"

"You made a choice, Lukas..." My voice was strained and broken, sniffling in I looked to James. "Take me to my room, and call the physcian. I need to know if my baby is okay."

"Of course." James pushed Lukas out of the way, a male ran to my other side and helped me up the stairs. Lukas attempted to follow, but stopped when Rose came out of his room in a pink slip. My pink slip. Her mouth half opened in shock and her eyes wide. I glared at my cousin, and then disapeared into my room. When the other man left, I stood up and looked at James. "You deserve best actress. That was amazing. What are you going to do when the physcian gets here?"

"The potion will make it seem as if I am still pregnant. She'll say the pup was in distress, but safe, and I need to be on rest for the rest of my pregnancy. Lukas will just be in regret for a little while but we have five days to the party. So let's have fun with it." I walked to the bathroom door and looked back at James. "We're almost there, just a little while longer, and then I will make them pay for everything."

"And my pack will be back to the way it is supposed to." He let out a long breath, and closed his eyes in respect to his uncle. Sucking in a deep breath he smiled, made his departure and I was alone again. After a long bath, I laid in my bed. It wasn't long before Lukas came into the room, curling up on the bed beside me. As soon as he touched me I pushed him off and he let out a sigh.

"Are you still mad at me?" Lukas whispered, and I sniffled not replying. He let out a sigh, and sat up on the bedside. "The physcian is here, do you want to see them?"

"Yes." I said with a stifled groan. With some effort I made it look like I was brusied all over and my lip, eye and nose were cut up. A huge gash was across my chest jagged from the "knife" I took. More wounds would be on my body when they checked me. He stood up, let in the physican, and stepped away while she looked me over. When she physican was done she stood up, looked at us both and gave her report.

"The pup is alive, but in distress. She will need to rest for the next three days, if she does not rest she will miscarry. Call me if you need me." She left and Lukas let out a relieved sigh. It was easy for me to not look at him when he approached me.

"I am sorry, Amara. I love you so much, I jus...she is a princess. I can't let her get hurt." Lukas reached for me and I slapped his hand.

"Get away from me, Lukas. I almost lost my baby today because of you! I need you to leave. Give me space." I drifted off and he let out a frustated growl. I laughed to myself and when he was gone pulled out my phone to send messages to those who would be aiding in my future plans. Ten days, in ten days my real life would begin and Lukas, Rose and our past lives would all stay there forever.
