THE ALPHA’S BROKEN LUNA

Hardin’S POV

“… we’ll talk later” I announce and her and Alpha Damien exchange confused glances. She turns to look at me and when our eyes meet I hold her gaze and look at wickedly, when she gets uncomfortable, she breaks the eye contact.

“Excuse me Alpha?” She asks.

“I believe you heard me clearly, now just serve me and be on your way, I’ll summon you when I need you” I order and she nervously picks up the knife from the tray with her left hand and the orange in the right.

She’s left-handed. That’s interesting, Wilma used to be left-handed too.

There’s fear and nervousness written all over her body and I love it. I love that fact that my presence makes her feel nervous and afraid, that’s the feeling I want her to get every time she sees me so that she will be reminded of the fact that I don’t have a mate and a Luna right now because she exists.

As she tries to cut the orange, I don’t know what happens to her but she the knife suddenly drops down and she tries to relax her left arm.

She’s not only a murderer but a pretender and right now all I want is for her to get out of my side.

“Forgive me Alpha” She pleads as she bends down and picks up the knife. “I just have a hurt arm…”

“I don’t care about the hurt arm and we all know you are just pretending, now leave my sight before I loose my temper!” I spit out cold and she quickly turns around and scurries out of the living room with her legs that look like giant noodles.

They are long and slender because she so tall and really slender. She is taller than her sister Wilma was and slimmer.

“Uh… Alpha Hardin” Alpha Damien calls the moment she leaves.

“What?” I ask not caring of I’m rude.

“Actually, she wasn’t pretending, she truly has a hurt arm” He defends and that annoys me the more. If he wasn’t an Alpha, I would have punished him severely for defending that murderer.

“Like I said before, I don’t care!”

“I’m sorry Alpha” He apologizes with his head bowed down and I just keep frowning while trying very hard to contain the anger that’s boiling in my heart.

How I wish I could just snap my fingers and then she seizes to exist. That will give the kind of satisfaction that nothing else in this world can give.

“Now, let’s ride on with the conversation about the defense strategies” I order and he nods.

“Of course Alpha”

Mate! Mate! Mate!

My wolf, Adam keeps jumping around in my mind the whole time and I can hardly focus on the conversation I’m having with Alpha Damien.

Ever since I punished Reign at the pack and she got away, he had keep his distance and had frequently blocked me from communicating with him.

This is actually the first thing he has said since morning and he’s yearning for me to go and hug her, but hell no! I can’t because I hate her. She’s a murderer and I wonder why she’s here in Alpha Damien’s pack looking all fine and healthy. She’s supposed to be out there, suffering and being haunted as a rogue. She doesn’t deserve peace.

That’s why I’m going to take her back with me. It’s a good thing I’m the Paramount Alpha, superior to the other Alphas, so Alpha Damien won’t have the audacity to stop me.

It’s a good thing he hasn’t asked the reason why I want to talk with Reign. I’m happy he’s minding his business.

Like I said before, Reign is a cruel murderer and she doesn’t deserve the peace she has here in this Castle. She looks fine and beautiful if I may add and that irks me a great deal. I’m going to take her back with me to our pack and I’m going to make sure she suffers.

“Alpha Damien, I feel pressed, I’ll just use the bathroom” I say as I rise up and take the staircase. I’ve been here about a million times and I very well know the way to a toilet.

I’m not actually pressed, it’s Adam who keeps threatening to take over me and go after our mate. These past days, we’ve been on each other’s necks over Reign and I’m wondering why she’s even a factor.

She’s not a factor and we are not supposed to be quarreling because of her.

“Let me out!”

“Adam, this is a very inappropriate time and place for me to shapeshift” I reply back in my mind.

“But that’s our mate and I want to hug her”

“No! Adam she’s not our mate. She killed our mate, remember?” I try to remind him, but he shakes his heard in disapproval.

“That was a mate you chose for us” He fires back.

“But you liked her!”

“Because you left me with no other choice! And also because I had not seen our real mate yet. You can never compare Wilma to our real mate!”

“That’s enough Adam, now get some sleep” I say as I block him in my mind and walk out of the toilet. I’m only going to unblock him when we get back to our pack, if not he’ll take over me and cause a scene.

Adam is a big bad Alpha wolf.

I can never be kind to Reign, not to talk of hugging her. Adam will have to bear with me because I’m never going to treat her nicely.

She’s going to spend every day of her miserable life regretting why she took my lover, my mate and my Luna away from me.

She is so going to regret it, I swear.

“I would like us to discuss something”

“What about Alpha?”

“Reign!” I stated and he gave me a surprise look.

“You mean, Reign, the girl who served you?”

“Yeah”

“Oh…” He exclaims and I look at him amused.

“Why do you seem so surprised about the issue?”

“Actually Alpha, I’m just surprised that you remember her name”

“Oh I do, I do remember her name” and a lot of other things she did.

I finish the last statement in my mind. It’s a good thing Reign hasn’t told him anything about what really happened. I don’t want him to know either.

“So, what about Reign?”

“I want to take her with me to Wall Street Pack” I state my intentions and he abruptly snaps his head to look at me and what I see in his eyes, for some reason causes bile to rise in my liver.

Disappointment.

He doesn’t want me to take her. It seems like he has grown fond of her and he doesn’t want her to leave.

“You want to take Reign with you?” He repeats the question.

“I believe that’s what I just said”

“But why?” He asks and when he realizes who he is talking with, he sits up straight and adjusts himself. “I’m sorry for questioning you Alpha, I don’t mean to question your intention, I’m just curious about why you want to take a servant to your pack, a rogue”

“She’s not a rogue, Wall Street is her pack” I announce and he gives me a bewildered look and I chuckle.

I like it when I shock people as such. Their facial expressions and reactions are always priceless.

“For real?”

“Yeah, she didn’t tell you even that?”

“No! She blatantly refused to say anything but her name.”

“She’s a Wall Street wolf.”

“So, that means you know who did this to her?”

“Our question and answer session ends here Alpha Hardin, summon Reign right now” I order end he gives me a slight bow as he seats up from the chair and walks out of the living room.

Moments later, both Alpha Damien and Reign walk into the living room and when I see her, I sit upright and carefully scrutinize her looks. I have never really taken out time look at her.

She’s a tall girl, a bit too tall for her age and has a perfect slim figure. I used to think Wilma was the perfect model girl, but Reign has proved me wrong.

She would pass as a supermodel.

She has curled jet black just like her sister and a pair of hazel eyes. Her facial features look so soft and delicate and I can still see a few old bruises from the punishment she received while at the silver prison.

I’m not going to feel guilty because she deserves it. She deserves every bit of punishment she got!

She deserves every bit of what happened to her and what is about to happen to her.

“Here she is Alpha” Alpha Damien announces and I can tell from the look on his face that he is very disappointed.

He doesn’t like the fact that I want to take her back with me.

I rise up from the couch and walk towards them. When I get closer to her, I look at her from head to toe with an eternal frown plastered on my face and then turn to Alpha Damien.

“Give us some time” I instruct and without uttering a word, he walks out of the living room.

Now that it’s just Reign and I, I can tell her my latest decisions and I don’t care if she would like them or not!
