Luna On The Run!

Again Alpha Zane’s POINT OF VIEW

Kensley and I moved closer to the packhouse.

Ariel had promised to sit with Clarita on the back balcony, where I could easily see them from the woods. Claw tries to take over from me again, but I push him back into the background.

He is unreliable at the moment, he might run off to Clarita anyway. He yearns for her.

‘When she was with us, I often asked you if she was ours, our mate. You never gave a specific answer, you always waved me off. And look at you now, like a whipped puppy, insisting on being with her. You are the stupidest wolf I have ever seen.’ With my last words, I slam the mind link between us. After all that’s happened, I realize now he couldn’t answer me then because we were still bound to Ariel. But I am not open to reason just yet, it suits me to lay all the blame on him.

I hear him growling in tune but ignore him.Content protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Together with my friend, we go as close as we can. Indeed, I see Clarita again, now in the company of several women. With Serene, Fiona, Xanna, Alexis and Ariel she is having a merry chat. The women are laughing happily, occasionally slapping each other on the back, all amicable. Yes, I recognize the witch who lived with Alexis in my pack.

Jace and Gorgio stand at a distance, but their eyes scan the area alertly. They know I’m nearby and will surely intervene if things don’t go as planned. But I have no intention of betraying their trust, I am sure Ariel will keep her word. Goddess, I can’t wait for things to work out with my mate to finally take her home. It’s been too long.

All of a sudden, she turns in my direction. It’s as if she senses me. She narrows her eyes to slits and looks towards me. If she were a werewolf, I’m sure she would see me. I grin at her; it’s probably the mate bond at work. Even though she is human, she cannot escape the strong pull.

She strokes her belly and then turns back to her friends.

Goddess, how I want to kiss my pup and tell him that I am waiting for him eagerly. I want to teach him how to lead a pack, tell him about our history and his great ancestors. My heir and the future Alpha of Midnight Moon. Again, my love strokes her belly, the pup must be keeping her quite busy. With his Alpha strength, I am sure he will make his presence felt.

Damn, I’m so in love!

Head Warrior Kensley …

She knows I’m close.

I can feel her body tensing. Another bit of my aura and she won’t be able to resist me. My wolf calls to hers, we cannot be apart for too long. Only the moon goddess knows how long this misunderstanding between Zane and Clarita will last, but I want to hold my mate in my arms at least once while she performs her duty.

I put on my were-hearing and hear her tell her new friends that she has to use the loo. The layout of this packhouse is unfamiliar to me, but I will use the mate bond to guide me. It’s tonight or I don’t know when, but I choose here and now.

“Zane, my mate will be alone for a few minutes. I have to hold her, my wolf will die if I don’t. The agreement with Ariel is not about me, it is about Clarita”. Luckily, he understands and nods indulgently.

“But be careful. Try to muffle your scent so you don’t draw attention to yourself.”

And I move closer to the packhouse. Some bushes offer me some cover and I approach the back door. Thankfully, I am wearing a hoodie, so I pull it over my head and part of my face.

Just as I am about to enter the packhouse, I feel a tap on my shoulder.

“Looking for me?”

Rooted to the ground, I remain standing, unbelieving that I’ve been caught at all. But then her scent hits me in the face again. That fresh Lily scent that had once overwhelmed my senses is already permeating me. I slowly turn towards her. Now that I see her up close, I notice her green eyes in a face with a wide mouth that always wears a smile.

I take a step forward, reach out and caress her cheek with the back of my hand. I feel sparks flying, electrifying. She’s perfect, I can’t believe she’s mine.

“Definitely!” I answer her, staring into her captivating eyes. “I couldn’t leave before I had you in my arms. Come here, my mate.” All smiles, she throws herself against my chest, her arms wrapped around my waist like a vise. Her face is hidden in my shirt.

“You know why I kept my distance, don’t you? I can’t leave the Luna on her own, especially now that she’s pregnant. But hopefully, Ariel will be able to quickly convince her to give Zane a chance to make things right.”

“Yes, I know. And I’m so proud of you, you’re already proving to be a responsible mate. I love you already, Serene,” I whisper into her ear. She flinches and lifts her head to me.

“You know my name?”

I laugh hoarsely. “Of course, I have inquired about you. I can’t have a mate I don’t know anything about. Besides, my name is Kensley. And I will wait for you as long as it takes. But my wolf is weakening, we had to hold you and have your scent in our system.” I nestle my face into her neck and take a generous sniff.

Addictive! I don’t know how long I can last without her.

“I need more of you. This is far from enough”. She looks at me strangely. I wink at her.

“I must warn you, you have a horny mate on your hands. Give me a taste of you”. She blushes and lowers her head shyly.

“Hey, I’m your man. We met for the first time, but I don’t know how long that will last between Clarita and Zane. I want your scent all over me for God knows how long. Give me some”.

I feel her hesitation. “I’ve never done this before. I …”. And now I understand. My mate is a virgin. Delirious, I smile into her hair.

“Don’t worry. I have enough experience for both of us. Come, let’s go to the forest, I’ll cover you.”
