Chapter 6

It’s a curse that we always get broken by the people that make us whole...-A. J Lawless

I was expecting more or say extra-ordinary but she didn't deliver. I think she thought this was going to be a cat fight. But girl, was she wrong.

She’s got speed which could be put to proper use with the right training but here she was acting like a headless chicken and it was getting on my nerves as well as Havoc's. I cut to the chase and went on full attack mode.

Beating the shit out of her till she submitted then I turned to return back to Matthews only to be met with the proud glimmering eyes of my mate, his mum, Matthews himself, Jeremiah and his mate as well as his warriors.

I smiled softly before walking into my mate's outstretched arms and that’s when I came down from my high on adrenaline rush and heard the applause.

I chuckled softly before pulling back to go on the makeshift platform where I raised my hard to let them know the applause was enough and when the place was quiet enough, I begin to talk.

"Today has been eventful and it’s almost the end of our training session but I believed we all learned an important lesson here today and I hope no one makes those same mistakes again. I have seen a thing or two that I would like to rectify that is after I have discussed it with my mate, my beta and delta as well as the warriors of this pack. So that's all for today. See you tomorrow"

As soon as I joined my mate and his team, Alpha River said teasingly;

"I'm both frightened and aroused"

Chuckling softly, I said" you should be. I'm no body's bitch. You fuck with me, I screw you over. Simple"

"Well I want to fuck you and screw you so hard" Alpha River whispered huskily into my ears to which I pretended not to have heard causing him to burst into laughter

"I like you already" Jeremiah said

"Me too" the other warriors chorused whiles Matthews nodded with a small smile

I turned to Alpha River's mum and pulled her into a hug which surprised her and everyone around.

I apologized for last night but before she could say anything else, I was walking towards the house I woke up in with my mate, his mum, Matthews, Jeremiah, Stephanie and some other man trailing behind them.

I was hot and cold like that.

I knew she would get sentimental and emotional and I didn’t do that with anyone or in public except my family and now, my mate in the privacy of our room and that's it.

I headed upstairs to the bedroom I now shared with my mate. Making a quick work of stripping down, I entered the bathroom for a shower.

The cold water blasting down on me soothed my tensed muscles.

Though I may not have shown any emotion during training, I didn't enjoy what went down there. I hate disrespect and no one messes around with me just because I am a woman. I didn’t like confrontations that's why I tried to avoid it as much as possible. I am their Luna and they needed to respect that. I can be lenient when I want to.

Clearing my mind, I focused on taking my mind and cleared my mind. My wolf was getting restless and I knew I was stressing her out as well as myself. The change of environment together with the stress of meeting new people is getting to us and I knew it will take just a small thing to trigger it.

I stay in the shower till my skin starts to prune before turning the shower off. Grabbing a towel from a rack in the en suite, I made quick work of toweling dry before wrapping it securely around me. I grab another one and after drying my hair with it, I wrapped it tightly around my head before stepping out.

Taking a quick glance around the room, I realized the clothes I discarded on the floor have been relocated to the dirty laundry basket. Lifting my nose up into the air and took a quick smell of the air and shivered when my mate's scent rushed into my nostril’s and down my spine. With a shake of my head, I entered our walk-in-closet and grabbed the first top I found with black ripped jeans and some undergarments.

Dropping them in front of the dressing mirror, I applied my body cream, fixed my undergarments on before pulling the ripped jeans on.

I took the top and opened it to see what I had picked. I smiled softly when I realized it was my favorite maroon basketball-like top. The sleeves have been ripped off at the seams to put my tattoos on full display and the sides parted giving it a suave ghetto look.

I shrugged it on before pulling my hair into a tight pony tail on top of my head and then checking my look in the mirror. Feeling satisfied with my look, I walked to the shoe section and slipped my feet into my six-inch maroon-black combat heel. Lacing it up, I walked to the bedroom and picked up my phone from the nightstand before walking out of the room whiles I replied back the messages on my WhatsApp.

Following my mate's scent, I allow it to lead me to wherever he was. I stopped when his scent became prominent in a particular place. Exchanging a last text with my mother, I slipped the phone back into my back pocket before lifting my head to take in my surroundings and the sight I saw sent a knife through my already cold heart.

I knew my mate and this pack were too good to be true.

My mate sat at the head of what looked like the pack dining table with a woman in his lap chatting animatedly. Calling on to my birth given ability, I cloaked my scent and self before venturing into the room to listen to their conversation.

"You know you would have to get up before my mate returns right?" My mate asked the lady on his lap rather seriously

"But we use to do this all the time and you didn’t complain honey?" the girl said with a frown on her face

"Yeah I know and I still don’t have a problem with it but my mate is here and I don’t want her to see this?"

"Fine I understand but you won't stop sleeping with me right. We’ve come so far to stop now baby"

Chuckling softly, my mate said “Yeah I know. I never said we were stopping, did I? Now give me a kiss"

They were locked in a rather passionate kiss when Felecia entered the room. I was expecting her to rebuke her son or something but boy was I wrong...

With a small smile on her face, she said "You two know how to put a smile on my face. When will this fling end huh? Tricia, you know his mate is up there right?"

"I know Mama River. But for one, we aren't ending this anytime soon... Jay Bear said so and two, what she doesn't know won't hurt her" Tricia said with a smug smirk on her face.

Having heard enough, I walked back to the entrance I was previously coming from and uncloaked myself. Letting my scent and my alpha aura leak out heavily. I took in deep breaths whiles trying to get Havoc and our other side under control. I guess this mating was like a joke to them. No wonder he didn’t mark me and react like alpha's who found their mates normally would.

He had someone else that is why he was so laid back and he tolerated me around because of the mate bond and he couldn’t out rightly disobey the moon goddess. I feel like every affection I have been shown was false. I bared my heart out to him for crying out loud. I couldn’t take it anymore. I felt like my heart is being cut into pieces over and over again.

It was stupid to have kept clinging to the hope of having a mate love me like my father did my mum. I may be act tough but that doesn’t change the fact that I also wanted a mate. Someone to love me for me. Someone who makes me happy just as much as I will thrive to make him. I was prepared to take on anything from an arrogant and demanding mate to an annoying egotistic mate because he was my mate after all but not this.

Blatant disrespect and cheating right under my nose. A mockery of my status as Luna.

I could literally see white fury boiling up inside of me and my wolf but we both knew we couldn't let lose because any careless decision could lead to innocent people getting hurt and I didn't want that. Besides my mate was my business and I will deal with it my way.

Taking a couple of deep breaths, I tried to get my rage under control. My wolf had shut off our bond and I knew she was also immensely hurt.

I was still getting myself under control when I felt a tap on my shoulder. I turn to find Matthews staring at me warily.

"Are you alright Luna" He asks softly

"Did you know too?" I respond in a stony voice

"Know what?" Matthews said with a confused look on his face "Peek into the room and tell me"

I watch as Matthews sneaked a glance into the room and quickly redrew back with his mouth and eyes wide open but one proper glance at the guilty look on his face told me he also knew. I guess that is why he tried to mess with me when I first got here.

Shaking my head, I blew air out of my mouth and said to him, "Don't tell them I saw. I will deal with it my own way. Swear to me"

With a shaky breath, he said softly, "I swear"

"Good. Now take the lead. I will follow soon. Let them know I will be down in a minute"
