Luna On The Run!

Stubborn Alpha



Still Alpha Zane’s POVExclusive © material by Nô(/v)elDrama.Org.

I am by no means a coward. Gorgio will find in me a formidable opponent.

But I cannot make the same mistake he did. In fact, I am taking advantage of his grave miscalculation to declare war on me now that the King and Queen are in my pack.

And judging by the look on King Jasper’s face, the Alpha will not get away with this shown disrespect so easily. I bolt from my seat and walk out of the hotel with great strides. I leap behind the wheel and Eric quickly throws himself in the passenger seat.

At high speed, I race to the gates of my pack. Behind me, I see the Limousine with the Royal couple and some Council members, followed by the Alpha King in his Maserati.

As I arrive at the gate, I see my Head Warrior Kensley waiting there. Concerned, he comes over to me, obviously unaware of what has happened in the conference room.

“Alpha! Thank God you’re here! There is increased activity just outside our border. It looks like warriors are grouping up,” he pointed out. “And they have advanced weapons. Should we get ours from the storage as well?”

I quickly fill him in on what has happened. For a moment I notice joy on the face of my Head Warrior. “Our Luna? Really, Alpha?” he asked excitedly.

“Yes, but now we have Gorgio hot on our heels. He’s hot-headed and won’t rest until he has his mate,” I sighed.

“But we can talk this out. Why does he choose the extreme right away? This man is crazy. If it turns out that he has to share his Luna with you, he has no choice. Then the war is unnecessary,” Kensley growled. “Does he want innocent bloodshed so badly? Then again, the Luna left of her own accord.”

“We must be careful. The King and Queen are coming and so is the Alpha King. I want to make a good impression, get them on my side,” I explained in a low voice. And he was right on board, the prospect of having the Luna of our pack with us appealed to him quite a bit.

“Alpha Zane! Alpha Zane! I order you to come out, you fool,” I suddenly heard a thundering command. “Come to neutral territory, let’s settle this once and for all. And bring my Luna. Don’t make me get her myself, it won’t end well for you.”

Gorgio!

I was expecting him.

Out of the corner of my eye, I see the King, Queen and Alpha King get out of the vehicles. “Open the gates,” I told Kensley. He pressed a button and the large iron gates slid aside. In front of me stood Gorgio with his legs spread and his face grimacing.

“Where is my Luna? I’m warning you, Alpha Zane,” he roared. “If you lay a claw on my mate, I will finish you off”. He makes a few threatening moves with the automatic weapon in his hand.

“Gorgio. Can we talk about this? There is more to it”.

The Alpha King took a step in front of me, glaring at his son-in-law.

“Remember, too, that King Jasper is offended by your attitude. You’re insulting his authority”.

Gorgio gaze shifts to his father-in-law. At last, his eyes soften and he sighs.

“Father, all I want is my mate. She is here in Midnight Moon. Alvin, my Head Warrior, last saw her in the meeting room of this pack,” he stated, not letting his guard down. “Order Alpha Zane to give me my mate back, bring her here for me so I can leave in peace.”

“Ariel is no longer here. Alpha Zane spoke the truth. She left in her vehicle. There are already trackers looking for her,” Alpha King Petric interrupted him. “The best warriors from my pack are also on their way. If you stay calm, we can discuss how to find her together. A war is a waste of time. She may even be in danger”.

Gorgio shook his head.

“No, she is not in danger. I can still feel her in the bond. She is sad, this Alpha has that on his conscience,” he growled threateningly. “And she has closed the wall. No matter how hard I pound on it, she won’t give in.” This last sounded a little anxious. So it was true, Gorgio was crazy for Ariel, he would do anything to get her back.

But the same goes for me.

At least he spent a year with her. That’s a luxury I didn’t have. If only I could have held her once before she left. My heart aches with longing. Why did she run away from me? We could have worked everything out together. With her father close by, we could have broken down all the barriers and she could be in my arms right now in my bedroom.

Gorgio hesitates before he walks through the gates into my pack.

“Alpha Gorgio. Welcome in Midnight Moon. I am glad that you have come to your senses. That’s the best thing in a case like this. A war would only make things worse.”

The King seemed less offended now. He walked over to Gorgio and grasped his shoulders before he could get down on his knees in respect.

“I see a lot of myself in you, Alpha,” King Jasper explained indulgently. “I can fight anyone or anything that would harm my Queen. But in this case, we must give Alpha Zane the benefit of the doubt. We have no other evidence. No one saw your Luna being taken away against her will.”

I interrupt the conversation.

“We can look at the CCTV footage if that will reassure you, Alpha. I swear I didn’t even touch Ariel”. Gorgio’s eyes flash aggressively for a moment, I suspect his wolf is on the surface. “Luna Ariel to you, Alpha Zane!” he bit at me.

I shake my head and walk back to my car.

Gorgio is stubborn, but he faces an Alpha determined to claim his mate.

Me!….
